The room was getting crowded, and Lucian became aware of the danger it posed to Aurora. "Get out of here, Aurora!" he turned and shouted at her.Aurora, feeling that she might be separated from her brothers hesitated for a moment, clutching the pendant that hung around her neck. It was a locket that had their pictures. A locket with five flaps, each flap having their faces. "Aurora, we have to go," Shawn said to her, after stepping close and looking into her eyes. "Aurora, now!" he barked at her again, his eyes blazing with urgency. At this moment, Lucian turned to look and while he was caught off guard, he took an arrow in his leg. The arrow sent him down to one knee but he immediately gorged it out and stuck it into the eyes of the hunter that fired it. "Look what you are doing to them, imagine what you'll do to them if you'll stay. You'll kill them if you stay! Let them concentrate," Shawn shouted and dragged her by the arm. Aurora nodded and let Ethan guide her through the cha
The once-blooming living room of the Desjardins was now shrouded in darkness, accompanied by thick smoke from explosions and fire. As the Desjardins brothers stood in the ruins of what was once their sanctuary. The air crackled with tension as they realized the gravity of the situation at hand. But they were at ease since their sister, their beloved Aurora, had taken the advice and had fled with Shawn, her werewolf bodyguard.The brothers stood, shoulders brushing and eyes set on attackers in the living room, who were a mixture of vampires, werewolves, witches, and hunters. Lucian, the eldest and most composed of the brothers, took a deep breath and exchanged a meaningful glance with his siblings. "We have no time to waste. Aurora will be at the meeting point and we should meet her there," he said with a voice that commanded attention. "We must split up and escape. Now!""I don't think we'll all make it out of here," Lucas said."I hope we all will," Lucian answered and raised his h
Alistair's heart pounded in his chest as he sprinted through the thick forest. He suddenly stopped at the sound of his pursuers' howls growing closer with each passing moment.He was heading towards the rendezvous, but it posed a danger to them all. His senses heightened, he could feel their presence gaining on him. Desperation fueled his every step, but as the trees thinned out, he knew he couldn't outrun them forever.Finally reaching a small clearing on the plain, Alistair halted, his breath ragged, and turned to face his adversaries. The werewolves emerged from the shadows, their human forms now visible. They stopped too, eyes locked and all heaving heavily. Their eyes glowed with a sinister light as they closed in on Alistair, confidence radiating from their smirking faces.One of the werewolves, a tall and imposing figure, spoke first. "Ah, Alistair Desjardins. We never expected you to run. The Desjardins are known for their resilience, gory, and their undying courage. It seems
Lucian darted through the dense forest, his heart pounding in his chest as he sought refuge and safety, to find his brothers and decide on how to fight back.His mind raced as he continued to evade the unknown danger that lurked behind him. Out of concern for his siblings, he paused briefly to ensure that none of them were not captured in the chaos left by the fallen house of the Desjardins. Cautiously surveying the surroundings, Lucian's enhanced vampire senses allowed him to see beyond what a normal human eye could perceive. In the dim light filtering through the canopy, he witnessed the brutal sight of the once majestic house which is now reduced to ruins. Smoke billowed in the distance, mingling with the scent of destruction.He looked closer to see if there would be a movement but he saw nothing, his nerves were calmed but still, all he could do was hope. With a heavy heart, Lucian muttered an anxious wish under his breath, hoping that his beloved sister Aurora would remain unh
As Lucas yanked out the depleted syringe out of his arm, a surge of fear washed over him. He recognized the imminent consequences as he had been subjected to it in the past. He knew that his body would succumb to the sedative within seconds. He knew he would be unconscious for hours, completely vulnerable. He knew that he would transported to a place where he didn't know and the things he knew caused panic to well up inside him, but there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes as he surveyed the scene before him.Realizing he was the only one still in the dilapidated flaps of the house, Lucas's mind raced. His brothers, fiercely loyal and protective, would undoubtedly come looking for him when they found that he hadn't made it.He clung to the belief that they would find him and bring him back to the fold and that they would be reunited soon. Faith coursed through his veins, despite the dire circumstances.As strong hands gripped his weakened body and pulled him forcefully, Lucas mustered
SYSTEM: Hello, Shawn, you should find a way of taking Aurora out of here.Shawn sighed. He had her where he wanted, alone with her but if the escape had worked, they would be there anytime. SYSTEM: Aurora is not safe, leave with her when you have the chance. ***The moonlight cast a haunting glow on Aurora's anxious face as she stood between the towering pillars that held the widespread platform above her. Since she arrived at the shaman's temple, her heart had been pounding in her chest.Her eyes were fixed on the iron gate before her, its cold bars a barrier between hope and despair. Wishing that her brothers would walk in and that her prayers would be answered. The anticipation weighed heavily on her, the air that passed around the cold sensation became pregnant with uncertainty, making Aurora see the possibility that her hopes might be drowned. Aurora's thoughts were a tumultuous mix of fear, anticipation, and insecurity. Every passing second felt like an eternity, and her min
As Lucas slowly opened his eyes, his surroundings came into focus slowly. He was reminded of his last scene, he remembered the empty syringe that made him drowsy. With his blurred eyes, he wondered if he was still under the effect. He fixed his eyes on the ceiling and this made him realize that was laying recumbent on a soft, cushioned surface within a dimly lit chamber.He moved his eyes from left to right to check the walls and saw that there were hangings that made no sense to him. His memories were still his as he could still feel the absence of his brothers and the distance between him and his beloved sister. When he could make nothing of his surroundings, his eyes returned to the ceiling. The ceiling towered high above, casting long and dark shadows across the room.Lucas' mind revealed to him that It was a witch's lair, and at that moment, it all made sense as the space was adorned with various eerie accoutrements that sent chills down Lucas's spine.The room was decorated wi
Immediately after the head of the fractions left Lucas, Rox, who was the mastermind behind the plan gathered his team together, eager to execute their plan after they had gotten the route to the rendezvous."Hagen, select the top ten vampires from the squad, the fastest ones, the strongest," he ordered. Hagen nodded and quickly set about choosing the most skilled members of their bloodthirsty allies.Turning to Kantos, Rox continued, "Gather the ten best werewolves with the fastest shifting speed. We need their strength and agility on our side." Kantos immediately sprang into action, expertly selecting the most formidable werewolves from their ranks."Baja," Rox addressed the group's coven head, "I need ten of the darkest witches we have. We'll need their magic to tip the scales in our favour." Baja nodded, her eyes gleaming with determination as she set out to assemble the coven's most powerful spellcasters.Rox paused, gazing over his team. "And I will personally bring ten smart hun
