Toothless X Nightshade Novels & Stories

The snap of a branch too heavy to be that of a small animal. Kade was already on his feet, knife in his hand. He held up a hand...silence. We waited. Five figures emerged from the tree line. Rogues from the wild look in their eyes, the scars covering their exposed skin and the horrible, rotten stench that emanated from them. "Well well." The one in front said, a scarred man with one white eye and jagged yellow teeth. "Look what we have here. Pack wolves in neutral territory. You lost, puppies?"

There was scar tissue there which looked like it had not been allowed to heal properly. "Don't you care if he gets an infection?" I wondered, looking at the open wounds. Hearing my voice, the alpha's eyes opened as he moved slightly into the eyes. His eyes glowed with the ocean blue color as his eyes darted from Dr. Dawson to my scared eyes. He suddenly bared his teeth and growled low into the back of his throat, it was a warning sound that made me flinch, but I was aware so I didn't take the step behind Dr. Dawson like I dearly wanted to.

I just knew I had to get away before he touched me again. The underground air smelled like rust, metal, and damp concrete. My bare feet slapped painfully against the freezing floor, sharp debris cutting into my skin every few steps. Still, I kept going. Something felt wrong. The pain in my cheek hadn’t faded at all. Normally, even with my weak healing, the sting would have started disappearing by now. Instead, it still burned. Raw. Sharp. My chest tightened. Nightshade. That was what Primrose called it. The substance that interfered with healing.

Greyson offered immediately. “That’s where it gets kind of tricky. Deadly Nightshade is very powerful and it would only take the blood of a relative to help completely flush out the toxins since it would come with a stronger bond and a more powerful force that should be sure to force the poison completely out of her.” Clara said.

The flowing white dress is nothing but rags, and her long hair is thin and wispy. “Cinis cinerem. Pulvis sunt pariter!” we chant together and throw the potions. The banshee goes up in flames, burning for just a few seconds before she’s reduced to a pile of ash. “It’s been a while since I’ve seen a good vanquishing,” Tabatha says with a small smile. “Now, take me to my son.” We pour into the house, finding Evander lying on the living room couch. Lucas stands above him and wraps me in a hug the moment he sees me.

Each of them formidable alphas from packs with unique abilities and legacies. Caius Knight Black of the Nightshade Pack was a tall man with long, sleek black hair that framed his chiseled face. His eyes were a piercing silver, sharp and calculating, often concealed under the shadow of his brow. The Nightshade Pack was known for their mastery over shadows and stealth, and Caius embodied that secrecy and quiet danger. His wolf, as dark as night itself, was a shadow among shadows, capable of blending into the darkness without a trace.

“Oh my God.” “ He'll destroy him, is the administration insane.” “ Cap. Vale must be furious,they are letting Nightshade lose again.” “ This is revenge, Vale's revenge.” I clench my jaw and fist in anger. The screen comes on again. RONAN NIGHTSHADE - KIERAN VALE EVENT - FIND THE MOON. Another round of whispers, my stomach tightens, please no more, the screen flickers again, not a third. RONAN NIGHTSHADE - KIERAN VALE

“Yes, it was Nightshade.” I raised my brows, never having heard of Nightshade before. “What is Nightshade?” “A strong and very deadly poison that’s difficult to detect. It has no scent or taste… It’s slow-moving and there’s no known cure for it,” he said, his eyes finding mine and narrowing. “Well, until now that is.” My cheeks flushed. Not only was I able to detect the Nightshade immediately, but I was also able to cure it. I stared down at my hands, not sure what any of this means.

But why was *he* being dragged into this? "Your Majesties, please quell your anger," Marcus pleaded. "We are in the dark here. There must be a misunderstanding!" Alaric turned his predatory gaze toward Marcus. "Beta Prime, do you know what poison was used?" "I beg the Alpha King to enlighten me." "Phantom Nightshade." Marcus’s heart stopped. *What?!* Every wolf in the Capital knew that the only blooming Phantom Nightshade belonged to his daughter, Cassandra. She had even hosted garden parties to show it off. And everyone knew Cassandra and Serena Blackwood had bad blood.

"I think we have enough resources to deal with them. We could win even if there is something wrong along the way. We find that the things inside the code are a list with both our names in it. It seems that whoever leads this wants all of us gone or it's blackmail. They even show evidence and crime record along with evidence that we didn't know exist. Another one was a recipe about how to make the poison that was said to be the rarest type of poison. It was so lethal that people burn the plants the moment they saw them.
