Night Shade Novels & Stories

Dark of Night Copyright 2019 Emily Goodwin Chapter One “What do you see when you look at this one?” The doctor holds up a card, showcasing an ink splotch that’s twisted and creepy, with eyes that follow you no matter where you go. I look at it, heart hammering away inside my chest. The mess of ink on the white paper reminds me of the monster that lurks in Nana and Papa’s basement, the one that tried to get Abby and Scott to go downstairs with it.

Lucian reached his hand out as he stepped closer. I swallowed thickly, took his hand, and gently squeezed it. “Thank you.” Lucian stepped back and nodded at Grayson. Grayson turned back to the microphone. “Midnight Moon pack, I give you our newest shifter, our hellhound, Shade.” I looked at Azalea, and she flashed me a beautiful smile. I winked, and her smile widened. I took a deep breath, looked forward, and as I stepped forward, shade came to the surface and shifted.

Kaela slapped a hand over her mouth to muffle her snort. I, on the other hand, was about to punch through this moron’s window. Zayne put a hand on my shoulder and gently pushed me aside. “We’re looking for someone,” he said calmly, though how he could do that after the crude comment made about his mate, I didn’t know. “Her name is Nora Nightshade.” Stan shrugged. “Never heard that name.” Zayne sighed and turned to me. “Picture?” I quickly retrieved a picture of Nora from my phone and pressed it against the window.

My eyes drift open at the feeling of soft sunlight over my face. I look around the unfamiliar room letting out a deep yawn. Casting my eyes towards the window I see no sunlight but silvery moonlight filling the room instead. That's right I'm in the Shadow Moore where I might never see the sun again.

I was not going to leave without settling the score if I did not get the answer that I desired. I watched the remaining vampire still staying at the place, looking around, looking for something—maybe a clue. I slowly moved my hand without making any sound and took out the water bottle from the bag. I switched on the Nightshade bomb, which was in the form of a water bottle. I set the timer for ten seconds. Cool, right? Night Walker Pack was too good at preparing the weapons and giving them the shape that no one ever cooks, just like cake artists who could design shoes, pizza, and many more cakes. Something that no one could ever imagine.

Shadows danced, elongating and twisting, as if mocking our every step. Suddenly, the forest fell into an eerie silence. The rustle of leaves ceased, and the wind died down. The Nightshade materialized before us, its towering form wreathed in darkness. Its eyes burned with an unnatural intensity, piercing through the gloom. "You dare challenge me?" it sneered, its voice a haunting melody that sent chills down our spines. "You may have rallied your feeble forces, but you cannot comprehend the depths of my power." Malachi stepped forward, his eyes locked with the Nightshade's. "We may be mere mortals, but our determination and love for Silverwood will not waver in the face of your darkness. We

He doesn't use his hand and only hits them using his feet on the neck causing those who approach him to fall asleep quickly. As for Josh, he grabbed that baseball bat and used it to hit the men he reached. I shifted my gaze to others and I was amazed to see Ice and Jam fighting so that they could become partners, I no longer wonder why I see the two of them closer. "Shit can you stay away?! You stink!" Ezra and Julian yelled in front of them and quickly hit it which made me stunned. — On the other hand, Nash and Adrison quickly sneaked in to see what was inside the van but before they could open it, they stopped when they felt a hard object pointed at their head.

the words hang in my throat when the already angry katana drives her sword into the injury on my leg and I cry out in pain. “Drink, Imogen” she orders again. “Just drink it” everyone begins to tell me and I have no option but to grab the bowl from her hand and take a sip. The moment the substance makes contact with my mouth, I immediately know what is for. It is a mixture that has a little bit of silver mixed in it and it is meant to make us slow. The Nightshade pack is really ruthless to the core. “Until the day I personally tie you to that stake myself, don’t ever try to act smart with me again”

Lucas said. “If none of us are expecting retaliation, then we’re dumber than we look.” I said. But he just scoffed. It took a while to find the equipment that I needed to make an affective bomb but when it was finally finished I looked at the time and it was cutting it really close to sunset. So we headed back to the cabin and I looked in that window again. Most of the vampires were asleep from what I could tell and I placed two separate devices. One at the front door and one at the back door.

"They're in the medical wing right now. They're violently ill. The doctor says it's poison. Wolfsbane poison. They might die, Lyra. Those children might die!" Lyra's blood turned cold. Ice flooded her veins. "What? No, I just got here. I haven't even seen the twins. I would never such a thing. How can you say this?" "Dr. Reed found this in your travel bag." Sera held up a small glass vial with shaking hands. Even from across the room, Lyra could see the dark liquid inside. Wolfsbane. Deadly to werewolves. Especially deadly to pups. "That's not mine," Lyra said immediately.
