Beast City Novels & Stories

Five minutes ago, we were at the courthouse signing our mating license, and now reporters were shoving cameras and microphones in our faces. “This is breaking news! Forest Hills' very own notorious celebrity, the Beast, has just been spotted at Town Hall with a woman who appears to be his mate. Phew! Don’t you just love the smell of pheromones?” a blonde-haired news reporter spoke into the camera from a few feet away from us.

And while I saw versions of the fabled Werewolf capital in movies as a kid, it isn’t the same as experiencing it in real life. Crescent City is a city, yes, but Moon River is a metropolis. Almost everyone here is a werewolf and the city is so big that it has not just one but five major packs: Bloodbane, Steel Fang, Crystal Claw, Goddess Valley, and, of course, Moon River. Sly does his best to explain this big city to my small country self while we stand in the train station with our luggage.

“That’s what Elira warned.” Zara stepped closer until her shoulder brushed his. “Then don’t feed it.” The simple command steadied him. He forced a slow breath, letting the Beast settle. The whisper faded back into the walls, leaving only the hush of night. Outside, the Vale stretched in endless ruin. Whole districts lay flattened, streets choked with rubble and memories. Fires smoldered in the distance where survivors worked through the night, salvaging what they could. Maxim and Zara climbed a fractured staircase to a balcony that overlooked the city. From here, the devastation was absolute—a sprawl of gray and ember, broken towers leaning like weary sentinels.

"Come on, Joey. Zayla's just curious about the animals. She's pregnant, so be more patient with her. Besides, most of the animals are gentle. It's not like she'll go near the dangerous ones." Even though I had refused, he secretly took the keys and gave them to her. What he didn't know was that this betrayal had cost me everything. The starving bears, having devoured my severed hand, charged after me. I had no choice but to scramble up the iron netting and scream for help. But Zayla hadn't gone far. She stood nearby, laughing, and threw rocks at me as if I were a monkey. Stone after stone struck my body. "Die, you filthy woman! Your son would never claim a wretch like you as his mother!"

she looked back at the cute triplets, “its their first time here.” The guard acknowledged and gave them a pass, smiling widely at confused Anna. They drove into the mysterious city. Blue City, named after the glorious Blue Moon pack was a physical and magical wonder. It was a hidden city that can only navigated if the people inside allowed it. It was not totally hidden to the human eye, but the road to the city was a complete maze, allowing itself only to be solved whenever it wanted. Despite being a werewolf city, the lower populations of the city were just ordinary humans who had learned to cohabit with the paranormal species. Over the centuries, they had formed an unbreakable union and ha

He stepped into the charge. He grabbed the Beast by the horns. CLANG. Metal on bone. The Beast pushed. It weighed ten tons. Leo didn't budge. His feet dug into the stone, anchoring him. "No more snacking," Leo said. His voice rang like a struck gong. He twisted. He used the Beast’s own momentum. He flipped the massive creature over his shoulder. CRASH. The Beast hit the pavement hard enough to crack the foundation of the city. Leo jumped on top of it.

His speech and articulation had been very advanced for a four-year-old, but after pouting and frowning, he finally looked his age. “But running away won’t solve the problem. She’ll still tattle to your mom,” Ed said. He didn’t know who Rosemore was, but he followed the conversation. AJ smacked his forehead. “You’re right!” Reluctantly, he grabbed his bag. “What’s your name, mister?” AJ asked. Curious before they parted. “Just call me Beast.” Ed pointed to the scar on his face. AJ laughed. “You’re not as bad as the beast,” he said.

"You look a bit innocent, so I will give you a small briefing, but lunch is in two hours, and you will understand exactly what I mean." I immediately followed him, and he led me across the long hallways before we finally reached a large opening. My jaw fell open as I took in the place. It was like a mega city on its own, with almost everything I could think of. A large fountain in the middle, and the building extended upstairs and just kept going till I couldn't see anything anymore. I turned to him, and he was already looking at me. "Welcome to Rosendale. We have only a few rules here. Most of them apply to everyone, but some of them are for only extras."

It would do no good to emphasize just how weak I truly was compared to them. It felt like hours later when howling startled me. The loud echoing noise came from all around me, and I felt the giant's arm tighten in response to my movement. I placed my hands on his lower back, pushing myself up to be able to see what was around me. The city was magnificent with large modern buildings that were decorated with all colors of plants and vines.

In the blink of an eye, it was like a flood of steel, rumbling, shaking the entire Ninth Heaven. "Get out and die!" An astonishing vibration and a terrifying voice instantly caused the demonic beast city to tremble. The city walls were shaking and cracking. The burning flames on the pile of white bones in the city seemed to be swept away by the strong wind and shook violently. At this moment, streams of surprised and doubtful Divine Awareness shot out of the city. A mass of dark clouds quickly gathered above the Demonic Beast City, enveloping the sky and the sun. Woo. A series of ghastly and miserable howls rang out in the city.
