Hera and Ryan had been threading through thick forest for hours. They couldn't even begin to explain where they currently where, or the realm, they couldn't recognize it, it wasn't like any realm they had ever been in. There was no sky above, only a black sheet, no birds, or the sounds of any insects, it was just really strange and put the girls off."I'm so tired," Hera moaned dropping to the floor. "How long does this road go? I feel we have been running for hours." She looked down at the host of Cassie. "Can you tell me the fastest route out of here?" No reply came to her."Fuck you," she said.Ryan rolled her eyes and went to sit down besides Hera. "We should keep on moving, Ryan. They are still after us. Though it may look like we have gotten them off our tracks, but I won't be surprised if they are using some voodoo spell to try and get us quickly," she told Hera, but still walked over to sit beside her on the floor, she also was very exhausted.For the first few seconds, they
"Something is not right," Alpha Luca said after they had been waiting for awhile. He turned to look at Lord Valentine who was still on Advika's throne. "I feel she's lying to us."Lord Valentine sat up right. "It's Adelina... I honestly don't think she has it in her to lie, especially not to us.""You think?" Lord Romeo said looking at Lord Valentine. "Well, I do think she is. I mean, Advika is her Queen, surely she would respect her Queen's wishes before anybody else.""Exactly." Alpha Luca nodded. "Also, why won't she know the whereabouts of Advika, she's her right hand lady, this is something she should know, she follows Advika everywhere." He looked around the throne room. "And now she's disappeared...but something is really off."Lord Valentine was silent for awhile. Then he stood up. "Okay then, let's find Adelina and get the truth.""Good," Alpha Luca said. "Her scent is still strong. We could go after her." They all shared a look, and without a single word, began their walk ou
Adelina's life was spared since she was the only source of answer to them.She tried as much as possible to not reply to them by playing mute but a growl from Alpha Lucas was all it took for her to start talking."What the hell is this place?" Alpha Lucas asked."It's our underground base," Adelina said. "This is where most of our operations are carried out.""This place is where you people carry out your operations." Lord Romeo said looking around and Adelina nodded in the affirmative."It's just one of our many other bases." She added turning to face Lord Romeo. "This is where Cassie was brought back to life."His face fell. A flash of anger entered his eyes, but it only lasted a moment before disappearing."What do you have to do with all of this?" Alpha Lucas asked."Nothing, I have nothing to do with it except that I carry out all of the orders my master asks me to carry out here." She said. "I was also the one who wiped you and Lord valentines memory." She continued and paused
Hera, seeing how things are going and how they were mishandling Ryan, ran to support her immediately. But as soon as she got there, Eric's men came in numbers and tried to attack her."Get her!" One of them shouted and just like that, they all began to fight. It was just Hera against a number of them, so she had to concentrate on them, forgetting about the fact that she was going to help Ryan initially.Hera raised her legs and hit the first man in the face. As the second person came on, she did the same as she also tried to dodge a couple of blows. Another of the men tried to hit her with the back of the gun he held but she dodged it. She fell to the ground when one who had been behind her the whole time hit her. She was about to stand up when another one hit her again, making her fall flat to the ground. Taking that as an opportunity to harm her further, another of Eric's men brought out a gun and tried to hit her on the floor to make her weak, but she was quick to get up this time
"You let her escape, you bastard!" Eric screamed like a maniac at the frightened-looking guards. "We're sorry, but we tried our b-best," one of the guards stuttered. "We're not strong like you, yunno.""Of course, you aren't," he told them. "Weak motherfuckers," Eric muttered. "You're the new recruit, right?" They all nodded. "What world are you from?""The human world."Eric gasped in disbelief. "You are from the human world? No wonder and I thought I was rolling with some bunch of supernatural." His eyes fell down to Ryan. Her whole skin was white now like the whole blood was sucked away from her, her eyes were wide open and her eyeballs were moving around like crazy, she was also muttering some strange words that no one could grasp. "Come, carry her." He said to the man closer to him. "Let's take her back to the base."He nodded and rushed forward to carry Ryan, throwing her over his shoulders. "Where are we going to now, Sir?" Eric didn't reply, just walked past him and began to
The minute Hera verged into the shape-shifters realm, the first thing she did was to find a tree that she could climb, hide in and rest. She was exhausted and wasn't ready to begin a race especially when she suspected that Eric's men would come after her. She wasn't afraid of Eric's men though, the second her fist connected with their chin, she could tell they were humans and were humans. Hera couldn't deny that she wasn't shocked by this news. Never did she think that humans would also be in this, as the supernatural world tried their best to keep the humans from knowing that their world exist. It was why the realms were built, to separate them from the humans, so everyone got to live in peace.She kept Cassie's host to her chest, looking down at the little humanoid doll every once in a while to make sure she wasn't imagining things and it was really with her. Her mind went back to Ryan, the only thing she could think about before she ran away. She didn't know what else to do, but s
Hera headed home trudging along with her the little girl who was Cassie's host.She paused in front of their realm and relieved herself of Cassie's host, breathing heavily at the journey she had made with her.She was tired but confident that she was safe as soon as she got to the werewolf realm.Gaining a little bit of strength, she pulled up the body again and walked in.One of the councilmen of the wolves Tim heard of her arrival by the excited noises the other wolves were making."What's with the jubilation?" He asked."Hera is back." One of the jumping wolves replied excitedly.Tim rushed into the house and met a tired Hera reclining on the chair.She had gone to drop the body of Cassie's host in one of the rooms upstairs so he didn't see it. It "Hera, you're back." He said pulling her into a warm hug. "Everyone was scared for you.""Yes, I am back." Hera smiled lightly. "Where is my brother?""Your brother has gone with the other Lords to look for you in the faerie realm." He r
Alpha Lucas, Lord Valentine, and Hera shared an amused look at how Lord Romeo rushed out with the body of Cassie's host.They knew he was overjoyed and so they burst into laughter at his excited behavior.They made small talks and the glances Lord Valentine and Hera were stealing with themselves didn't go unnoticed by Alpha Lucas.He stood up and decided to give them space, he picked up his jacket from the table and the glass of unfinished wine and excused himself. Lord Valentine couldn't be more grateful for the sensitivity of his friend to what he and Hera needed at the moment, space.He stood up from his seat and went to the seat beside Hera who was sitting opposite him.Hera beamed and leaned on him pulling him in for another kiss, she released him and placed her head on his chest, she noticed how his chest was heaving up and down in erratic movement.She tilted her head and gave him a puzzled look. "Why is your heart beating this fast?"." You." Lord valentine replied. Hera's e
