We Need More Power Novels & Stories

We need to move faster. We are going to.

Our powers could come out unpredictable but we’d grow more in control the more we practiced. If we kept up like this, we could take down Arrick within the month. At least we prayed to the Goddess we could.

“I need power.” For hours my mouth had offered vows like a beggar offering coins. Now I said the word like a demand. Power felt grander than revenge. Power was not simply a blade; it was the capacity to choose where to cut and whether to heal, the capacity to decide which debts to collect and which to bury. I wanted it.

“It’s not possible to do that if we don’t even know who we’re fighting against.” I hesitated. And then, quietly, I went, “We make them come to us.” Jameson blinked. “I’m sorry, what?” I looked up, catching each of their eyes. “They believe they have the upper hand. That we’re weak. That we’ll keep running.” My voice hardened. “So we remove that control.” Bastian frowned. “And how do you propose we do that?” I took a breath. “We stop hiding. We make a move. We show the world that the Council has no monopoly on power.”

She tells him. “Why do you want to hide them?” He asked. “Because if they see we have powers, they might try to find some way to make us use them for their selfish reasons.” “Couldn’t we just use our powers on them?” “Keyne, the more that know we have powers, the more dangerous our lives become. We will be hunted; our loved ones will be used against us.” Felan tried to get him to understand.

“Maybe we should bring this to Gage, he needs to know that you are not getting stronger. What if something happens?” “Jade I’ve already told you, you have my powers. Just use your anger to summon them to the surface. You will get weak, I want to see if you get weak using them but how?” she said continuing to pace. “Maybe we could get Gage to bring someone to test them, we need to find Gage and see if he has someone we can use.” “Okay,” Jade said.

I smiled. “This is the kind of power I'm talking about. Not the power to destroy, but the power to build. Not the power to dominate, but the power to empower. And today, by signing this Constitution, we are telling the world—the wolves of North America are a force for progress, justice, and unity.” I raised my hand.

I became cautious of mine and made a I've to take mine. “Just so I ask. Is it possible for me to be possessed with powers or I don't know...How can I get powers?! I can't be the only one here who doesn't have powers or anticipate any for that matter. I have to protect myself” Sandy whined garnering a rubble of laughter from us. “You don't need powers. All you need is to be a better wife to your husband. Adrian is good Beta, you can be a better support to him.That is power” she admonishes Sandy who doesn't seem satisfied.

All I knew was that I had to stay strong—for him, for Leo, for everyone who was counting on us. Leo sat beside me, his eyes focused on the flames. “We’ll get through this,” he said, his voice soft but resolute. “We’ve faced worse, haven’t we?” I nodded, though my chest felt tight. “I just… I don’t understand why this is happening. Why now?” “Power,” Leo said simply. “It’s always about power. Someone out there sees what we have, what we’ve built, and they want to tear it down.” “But we don’t even know who they are,” I whispered, frustration bubbling up inside me. “How can we fight an enemy we can’t see?”

"You mean, like a show of power?" Alexa nodded. "Exactly. We'll gather our forces and show the council what we're capable of. But we'll do it in a way that's controlled, calculated." "And what exactly do you propose we do?" Alexa's smile grew wider. "I propose we hold a demonstration of our power. We'll gather our forces and show the council what we can do. We'll show them our strength, our speed, our agility. We'll show them that we're not to be messed with."
