Among The Beasts And Briars Novels & Stories

The faint vibration humming beneath my skin. The kings' aura. Corbin led me through one of the massive archways and up a series of stone steps. The higher we climbed, the stronger the sensation became. And when I finally reached the top and looked down into the arena, my breath caught. Fenric, Rhydan, and Brammon were in the center of the coliseum. Fighting each other. All three had partially shifted into their beast forms. Fenric moved with terrifying speed, dark claws flashing whenever he struck. Rhydan's tail lashed through the air like a whip, each blow carrying enough force to crack stone. And Brammon stood like a mountain amidst the chaos, every footstep making the ground tremble.

They were abominations, their bodies broken and deformed, corrupted by whatever twisted magic had brought them to life. I slashed at another one of the beasts as it lunged, my claws tearing through its matted fur and into the sinewy flesh beneath. It screeched, a guttural sound that echoed through the night, but it didn’t fall. These creatures didn’t go down easy; they were resilient, driven by something primal and unnatural.

The twins were still unconscious. “No?” Said Anestra. “Fine, then!” She said with a shrug. She snapped her fingers and a throng of Stormbringers came rushing out of the passageways, charging at Cory and her companions. Cory stiffened. The beasts were snarling, snapping and growling as they pawed and scratched at the barrier. Cory could see several of them wearing collars but there were many others without. “Answer me one thing!” Demanded Hayden, yelling over the noise of the frantic beasts as they kept trying to break down the barrier.

There was biscuits, toast, fresh butter, homemade jam, thick cuts of bacon, homemade sausage and goetta, eggs and home fried potatoes. She whispered to Christopher that you couldn't pay for a breakfast more perfect. Mr. Jameson concentrated on buttering a biscuit with shaky hands. "Damned wildcats kept me up half the night with all that loud screaming. They sound like women, I tell you!" Ashleigh's eyes got big and she felt her cheeks redden. She glanced at Christopher who pretended that he hadn't heard him. "Wildcats are around humans too much. Almost sound like they're screaming oh my god…" Ashleigh damn near choked on her eggs. She noted that the ladies were grinning and Edith nudged her

With a seamless transition, we swiftly shift our focus and engage in a fierce battle against the relentless onslaught of rogue adversaries, one rogue at a time. Emerging from the trees, the crimson eyes that once pierced our souls now expose a horde of untamed beasts, their menacing snarls and growls reverberating through the dense woodland. Their unkempt fur is caked with filth, while their teeth gleam ominously, tainted by the traces of fresh blood.

The spirit beast ran to the border before stopping, but all we could see were the three beastmen. "You vile beasts, where have you taken Vee?" Mother angrily scolded them, forgetting that she was merely the ruler of a small kingdom. Sure enough, the three beastmen burst into laughter upon hearing that. Felix casually tugged on a rope beside him. "Ha! Like mother, like daughter—so defiant." Sharp wails came from the cliff's edge. "Mother, no! Don't anger them or I'll die! They're all insane!" Mother was gripping my hand tightly, and when she discovered Victoria hanging from the cliff wall by a thin rope, her nails dug into my flesh.

Tigers more than three to four meters long, golden-maned lions with coats of copper-brown fur, giant apes the size of a hill, and several Tibetan Mastiffs that make the lions look like stunted cats loomed conspicuously amongst the wild horde of beasts. The horde numbered almost thirty and all of them were Beast Lords, where half their number were higher-ranked than the rest. "Queen Jiu You." The beasts all greeted her in polite salute the moment they saw her. "Let's go. We're heading for Wildfox Ridge. We've brought a fox nest with us." The great halberd of the Nine Serenities waved its hand in an awe-inspiring manner. Boom! Boom! Boom! Riding on her white elephant, Jiu You led the charge wi

Calix shifted as he listened, giggling at something before looking up at me. “There was a leopard, a lion, a fox, a wolf, a falcon, a coyote, a bear, a hawk and many other predators that had joined in their travels. The All Mother rejoiced among her new companions, no longer feeling alone and helped them learn to live their lives as two separate but equal beings. She explained what their Inner-Light was, how mating would work and how to heal each other if they were to ever become injured. But the four dragons were no longer happy. They were jealous of the new additions to their family, not liking how much attention they were getting from The All Mother that raised them.” Calix nodded along,

She didn't finish the sentences when beasts sorrounded us. I could feel students and some teachers trembling with fear. Alex and other two boys immediately attacked the beasts. They are many in number and l dont think they will win against them. Venus take the humans some where. Alex shouted as Venus wanted to join the fight. 5he word human sounds strange everytime they speak it but this wasn't the time to contemplate on that. Venus tried to do what Alex said but some of the animal beasts came infront of us and began attacking. You wouldn't want to attack an alpha daughter! Venus suddenly said to them. As if they are understanding what she said. Was Venus going crazy! Why is she nearing the

That thing clearly looked like a man-eating plant! Wellis frowned, "All of you know about the rules of the Evil Plains. Don't you all already know? In the Evil Plains, there are all sorts of evil beasts. These evil beasts are nothing alike other than their knack for stealth! I've even seen evil beasts that look like rocks! "If I hadn't noticed it earlier, then we'd have been in trouble. If some look like rocks, then it's only normal for there to be beasts that look like vines! There's nothing to be surprised about."
