Novel & Cerita Dangerous Freedom Over Peaceful Slavery

A man named Lee was left in charge of the redemption of Richland, East Greenland and fighting off The Union coming from north, anticipating an upcoming battle north of East Greenland in Greensburg. The Greenland forces spent the New Year of 1962 setting up for an invasion, changing history again with President signing a treaty to free slaves and potentially end the war on New Years Day. The Union continued prepping to push their way for Richland after an opposing ice demon failed to defeat them in December, and after the executive order issued by President declared Axis states to free slaves. The Emancipation Proclamation didn't put an end to slavery itself but would create a path that led t

Let's find a way forward together. It could be genuine. It could be a trap. We were going anyway. Because freedom meant having the choice. And we were choosing hope over fear. Peace over exile. The dangerous path over the safe one. The Mother Below was right. We were fools. But maybe the world needed fools willing to try..

Some things a brother just didn't want to think of. "But that's just it! How can I get married if I can't even look at a man?" "It's to keep you safe." "Maybe I'm tired of being safe. Maybe I'm ready to do something dangerous. What was the point of escaping for our freedom if you've got me chained up just as tight?"

She wasn’t married and soon she would be in the same position I was. It was an incredible place to be. I went to bed feeling hopeful and happy. Things were going to be okay. They were going to be more than okay. My life was going to be happy. Lorenzo and I would be happy. The slaves were free and slave trading was now declared illegal in the entire werewolf kingdom. People had hope again. Lorenzo’s guards were out searching for the slave traders and soon they would be in the dungeons in chains. He was going to allow them to stand trial and be judged by the same people they abused. Life was going to be good. I fell asleep with that thought in mind.

"I'm fucking pissed. You better have a good explanation or else we are going to have a problem." He sighed and rubbed his hand over his face, much like Nik did when he was tired and frustrated. "A slave not kneeling next to her Mistress in bad. Her standing away from her with a loose leash is even worse, Avalyn. It looks like she ran away, and runaway slaves are brutally punished or killed." "But she didn't! I left her leash! Voluntarily!" "That's even worse. You releasing her leash in public as good as saying that she isn't your slave anymore and she is fair game to anyone else," he explained and my jaw dropped. "Why did you release it anyways?"

Looking for any sign of the man he must have been before grief destroyed him. "I know you can hear me" I said and my voice sounded different. It carried power now. The Moon Goddess's power flowing through every word. "The days of slavery are over" I said clearly so everyone could hear "no more humans will be bought and sold and no more families will be torn apart and no more children will be stolen from their parents" Varek's eyes narrowed but he could not speak yet. Could not interrupt or argue. He had to listen. "I am offering you peace" I continued "real peace where humans have freedom and rights and a voice in how the kingdom is run"

Then, she spoke. "I just think that since you're the Alpha, you should consider the greater cost instead," she said, staring at him while speaking in a restrained tone. "If that bomb yesterday hit you slightly off target, the pack wouldn't have lost just a mere guard, or a shipment, or a pup. It would have lost you. "It's just not worth it at all for you to risk your life saving an unawakened pup's life." The ward descended into silence. The last ounce of warmth in Larry's eyes died out.

“It’s safer for you at his house.” “Safer from what?” “Everything,” Marco replied softly, his gaze pleading for me to understand. “Those people who were following us… the ones who sent them know where I live. It’s not safe for you there, especially if I’m not around.” Yesterday, after saying I wouldn’t regret choosing to be with Marco, I tried convincing myself that life with him wouldn’t be as smooth as a fairytale romance. Marco wasn’t a regular guy. He was a wealthy man who carried a gun, the kind of person who gets picked up by suited men and rides in luxury cars right after stepping off a plane.

“We have to be more careful. They’ve always had the people’s love, for some reason. And they could use it against me.” I bit my lip, my mind already turning over the weight of his words. He wasn’t wrong. Darius and the others had that effortless charm, the kind that made people forgive too much, overlook too much. It was dangerous in the wrong hands—and right now, their hands couldn’t be more wrong. “What if you abolished slavery?” I asked before I could think better of it. His head snapped toward me so fast I almost flinched. “No.” The word was sharp, immediate, and final, like a blade coming down between us.

“Do you think my mother would let the girl go?” “I'm a man of my word, I promised the slave her freedom, to go back to her family, and I intend to keep that promise,” I paused, running my hand in my hair. “She saved your life and secret, aren't you going to do the same?” She stared at me, her eyes flashed with anger. “You have really gone insane.” “I'm just a slave, I can't go against your mother, she would crush me without a second thought,” I paused, watching her reaction, she seemed to agree with it so I continued.
