Of Glory and Of Doom FIFTY THREE - A new dawn?
Lily was so angry. Her chest heaved up and down, her cheeks flushed. The feeling she had gotten from the transformation didn't abate even after days past and she had felt the joy wane as she had come down from the high that she had surprisingly enjoyed. And now, staring at the high priestess made all of her anger and confusion rise up again. She could feel another transformation coming on and tamped it down, telling herself to calm down and take everything in stride. "I want to know where I came from."The high priestess stared at Lily. She didn't look shocked or surprised, in fact, it felt like she had been waiting for the day that Lily would finally ask. "You know who I am. What I am." It wasn't a question. Lily stated the obvious truth and watched to see any expression mar her face. The high priestess remained as stoic as ever, staring at Lily with something akin to annoyance."Why would you keep that from me?""I didn't know. I guessed, but I wasn't sure." The high priestess ma
Of Glory and Of Doom FIFTY FOUR - A little dose of dramatism
Lily stared at the creature still floating in the air for some seconds because she was damn well frozen in shock. She used the few seconds to process the fact that she had transformed into something that she knew was clearly not of kayaan blood, it was wild, untrained and unrestrained. It scared her."Lily," the being breathed again in a whimsical voice that made the hair on Lily's neck stand. It was both soothing and commanding.Lily stumbled back again as the being moved forward a little. She stared at it in utter disbelief and fear, both emotions quite foreign to her who was known to be fearless. "What are you?" She questioned and the being just smiled. It possessed the most beautiful face Lily had ever lain eyes on. High cheekbones, a dimpled chin and cheeks, a small but straight nose and cherry red lips. The only thing Lily could not make out was the colour of its deep eyes. It was constantly flickering and was as entrancing as it was when looking through a kaleidoscope."I am
Of Glory and Of Doom FIFTY FIVE - Hell in Hell
Laura was laying stiff on her bed in an almost lifeless manner. It was what she wanted to be at the moment, lifeless because at this moment, life had little meaning to her. Laying up on her back on her bed, she felt the salty tears run from her eyes and trail silently all the way inside her disheveled hair. It was never supposed to be that way, she thought back to what Nicolas had done, bringing his vampire men to rape the werewolf women. All that was supposed to transpire that day was the ritual and then, the women would've gone home to their families but no, Nicolas had soiled the day and had forever tarnished the memories in the heart of her people.She laughed out into the dark, choking on her tears and coughing heavily. The tears ran faster down her cheeks and her lungs fought for oxygen. During the paroxysmal process of coughing and crying, she'd rolled off the bed and was now on the ground. The end of her coughing fit was the beginning of her break down because she wrapped h

He loved his new role as the werewolf king. The power it came it. It was even more powerful that even being
Of Glory and Of Doom FIFTY SEVEN - Ahhhhh!
King Eric searched through the drawers of his son's study. His son had told him all that he knew and how he was able to carry out the mating but he wanted to have the books in his hands and so he was here searching the study. He needed to get the book to have a detailed understanding. Even though the prince had told his father the book had missing chapters, the selfish king still wanted it in his hands. After his arrival, he had made his son tell him about all he knew about the werewolves. The prince had told his father all he knew but what the new werewolf king didn't know was that he father was planning on a war. Angry, King Eric flipped the small cabinet next to the king's seat. He had been searching for the book for over an hour and there was no sign he was going to find it. He huffed and moved to the door. He opened the door and called the two guards who were in the look out. Both guards came in and started to search for the book right away. They explored the large study, maki
Of Glory and Of Doom FIFTY EIGHT - An eye opener
Lily rose early in the morning and rushed to the forest. For the past few days she had been waking early and coming to this spot, hoping that the quiet and calm would bring about another transformation for her. She hadn't transformed since that night after speaking rashly with the high priestess without a clear head and it made her feel incomplete. Like she was lacking something vital that made her her. And she feared that she won't ever be able to transform. It might be because she had stared in horror the first time. Or maybe it was how she cursed out when the pains came, but the second time hadn't been as terrible as the first and she needed it back. That pain was better than the hurt in her heart. She sat beneath the tree that she had met the spirit days ago and looked around, wondering if anyone would know that something drastic happened on this very ground in one trudged up here. There was nothing special about this place and yet, she felt like she had truly changed and been
Of Glory and Of Doom FIFTY NINE - An Intervention
"Such a wicked man.""And to think he had been staying right under our noses.""... Peelah had been attached to him like a shadow.""I heard that he joined in on the revelry. Such an evil soul."Lily could hear the words ringing in her head and she hunched over, squeezing her head between her knees. She had gone to meet the people today, most especially to check on Peelah and she had met a crowd of people outside Elder Ruthe's house and they had all looked within from the outside, at a scene that she had marveled at. Young Peelah was standing in front of the elders, Baba Kazoh squeezing his arms and telling him to say everything that had been spoked between him and Nicholas. She had walked in when Peelah, with a huge smile on his face, told them with a lisp in his speech, that he couldn't remember anything that they had talked about and that his memory went away with his friend. She groaned, flinching when Elder Ruthe smacked Peelah's behind. He looked at her, offended and apologiz
Of Glory and Of Doom SIXTY - Murmuring and Distrust
Juniper ,Elm ,Oak, Maple , Red fir , Beech and Pine. Lily looked round the woods, identifying the trees as she and her people passed them. She remembered with a small sting of pain the first time she came into these woods. Baba Mbari had gone on one of his journeys and he'd asked her to accompany him. She'd been so delighted. She'd learned her first fighting moves here, in these woods, practicing with her now dead friend and running around, feeling the forest dew in her hair.Those were some fond memories she would cherish forever and venturing into these woods had somehow sprung her feelings of nostalgia. Shaking her head, she directed her attention somewhere else, banishing the flow of memories from her head. They would do her no good, she thought, walking faster to keep up with the group she was walking with.The fighters were at the front, supposed to be led by her but instead she was reminiscing on past events that brought nothing but shame and pain whenever she remembered them.
