Black Winter Marvel Novels & Stories

Mammon firmly uttered at the back of my mind. Yes, he’s right! I won’t be deceived by Astaroth. This was just a part of his scheme to weaken me. And I won’t let that happen. My eyes are closed but I can visualize the situation and the appearance of the newly-arrived enemy in front of me. She was wearing all black with a long black staff on her right hand. “Who are you? How dare you call me your daughter!” I yelled at her and wielded my weapon to land an attack but she just countered it with her long staff. The collision of our weapons created a clashing sound. She giggled with a hint of wickedness.

Iolaire bursts out laughing and clinks her glass with mine, “Well said!” Whiro steps up to me, his already large nostrils flaring even wider. He flexes his overcompensatingly large muscles as they strain against his shirt. A black long-sleeve button-down with a gold tribal design over the left shoulder and down the left sleeve, paired with gold and black brocade pants. It actually compliments his otherwise beige-looking skin quite nicely. As he leans in closer, attempting to tower over me I can see a hint of the tribal tattoos on his body through the opening of his shirt. Is he trying to threaten me or flirt with me? “I have a strong feeling this will be your last year, Blackheart. If I get

"We already know who the real enemy is." Andhara handed Stella a small scroll, her face serious. "This information is important. The Black Order is preparing something outside the eastern region. They're working with a highly trained military group. They're starting to make new weapons, made from wolfsbane that have been modified to be more deadly. It's not just about werewolves, Stella. It's about total domination." Stella accepted the scroll and kept it under her cloak. "Then, what are you going to do?"

Then he felt a jolt in his wrist. And everything went dark.

Snow fell in soft spirals, the sky a silvery gray canvas. “Did it snow all night?” I asked, quietly. “Yes,” he replied with a faint scoff. “I hate the snow. Crimson Dusk has long, bitter winters. But the season will pass. Very soon.” I nodded absently, but it wasn’t the cold that bothered me. It was the image of the captives, Zevarion, sleeping outside, shivering under open skies, stripped of warmth. I imagined the snow clinging to their skin, burying them slowly.

She said. “Ma, my wolf Nyx is a Shadow Maw wolf.” Thalia said. “She is completely black. Teeth, the white of the eyes, tongue, paw pads, everything is completely black.” I see in the rearview mirror that Blanca’s eyes widened. “You have a Shadow Maw wolf?” She said with tears in her eyes. “Yes, mama.” Thalia said. “Pure Black?” “Yeah.” “Then you are the chosen one.” She said with tears rolling down. “Ay, mija! You will do great things! Wait until your grandfather knows.”

He tried to suppress the uneasiness and gestured for her to continue. “If, I am saying if, Kieth is the blessed black wolf, and if he is in the hands of Scarlett Witch, she wouldn’t kill him or eat his heart, if that is what she intends, anytime soon. She would only take an action on a moonless night.” Emma shot another arrow of words, hitting Steven. But fortunately, it wasn’t a poisoned arrow this time, but a rare calming one. Navigating his path from the ifs, Steven found the main point. The Moonless Night.

She was angry at being summoned. “I need your help, Goddess.” “Why should I help you?” I gave this question some thought for a moment before I came to an answer. “Because if you do not, your people will be in danger…” This seemed to spike her interest. A perfectly formed brow arching at the statement. “Speak.” This was all she needed to say. She was a Goddess after all. Her presence alone was enough to command armies. “I am Melinda Black. Wife of the Wolf King, and the last surviving heir to the Walker coven dynasty. I am sure you are aware of what this means.”

The twilight in Blackwater did not bring peace; it brought the awakening of horrors that the daylight kept cowed. Helena Moore was just a few meters from her porch when the air froze. It was not the cold of the mountain, but the vacuum of sound that precedes the predator’s leap. From the darkness between the pines, three silhouettes emerged. They were not the hunters from before, but something more organized, more lethal. They were members of the Iron Claws, mercenaries who reeked of dried blood and ancient hatred.
