THE MEETING OF THE MAGICAL was a very big and special event. Major leaders of magical species all.over the world attended it. Big Pack Alphas. Fey Kings from the six continents. Elves leaders. Dwarfs spokesman. Witches. Vampires. 

The event takes place in the night and at different locations. 

It is normally held once a year, but except a very strange thing happens then an impromptu meeting will be called. 

Major wolf packs and Elves communities are required to have a representative present preferably the Alphas or another high ranking person. 

The meeting is headed by a board of chiefs. These chiefs include: Sir Richards, who was the Grand magus of the wizard coven. Preston, the Alpha of the Artic wolves. They were largest and most powerful wolf Pack in the world. Rosetta, Queen of the Elves. Zhao, the most powerful Fey. He wasn’t the Fey King but he was the commander of the Fey Watchers. And last but not the least. He didn’t normally attend most of the meetings so most times he is exempted from the high table, but when he is around, he heads the table. 

Together, they – Sir Richards, Preston, Rosetta and Zhao – controlled the meeting and made general rules for the other species to follow. 

TONIGHT, THE MEETING was being held at Salem, Massachusetts. That was one hell of a creepy town.  

As soon as the sun went low, Cars of different models began cruising through. Portals opened at many places and magic users like Feys and Elves stepped through. 

Alphas who lived far off like Jamie flew there with their private Jet. Many male figures wore expensive suits and dark shades even as they were I the night. 

The females were on evening gowns or female suits too. 

The exception were a few people like some Africans who wore traditional clothes. And some Elfs who simply put on a long and obviously expensive robe. 

There was chatter outside the hall. It seemed like a small room from outside but that was just an illusion casted by the Feys. The inside was very much larger. Like a football stadium.  

A shiny limo drove into the yard where many of the guests were chatting idly. Nobody paid any particular attention to the limousine but as the passenger stepped out, his presence commanded attention and respect. Everyone kept quiet ans stood still. 

Holding a stylish walking stick and donning a little hat on his head, Henri folded his whole 6 foot 5 of his body frame out of the car and stood. The moon made his whitish blonde hair shine particularly bright tonight. 

Henri was the Eldest Vampire. He is even rumoured to be older than any of the magical creature. He is as old as the Earth. He doesn’t normally attend the meetings except in very dire situations. And when he attended, he presided over the high chief’s table. 

He gave a smug smile and walked confidently forward. 

JAMIE AND CLAUDE ARRIVED in a sleek SUV. They had come with Gibson – who was the only wolf in the pack physically larger than the Alpha – and two other wolves guards. 

They were a car behind Henri's Limo. 

“Correct me if I’m mistaken but isn’t that Henri?” Jamie asked, squinting his eyes to make sure he saw correctly.  

“That’s him. The only one.” Gibson rumbled from his seat at the front.

“This must be an awfully important meeting then. For him to attend.” Jamie said. 

They found a suitable parking space and walked into the Hall. People had started settling down and getting ready for the meeting. 

Jamie exchanged greetings with other Alpha’s as he went by. 

“Jamie boy!!!” A voice yelled from behind them. 

Jamie and his group turned and saw a large man bounding towards them. 

The two guards stood alert and prepared to protect their Alpha Jamie but they were just pushed out of the way as Jamie was clasped in the burly arms of the new comer. 

“Jaja.” Jamie laughed as they entangled. 

“How the hell have you been?” 

“I’ve been alright.” As if just sensing that his men were lost, he turned to Claude and said, “This is Alpha Jonas from the Blood Pack, Alaska. Jaja, this is my second in command and P.A, Claude.” 

“Ha, please just call me Jaja. Everyone does.” Jaja said, clasping Claude's hands. 

“Where are your guys?” Jamie asked, as the moved forward.  

Waving his hands cheerily, he said “They are everywhere.” Then he added in a conspiratorial tone. “ Hidden amongst the crowd. Look closely.” 

Jamie glanced around, then said, “I can’t see anyone.” 

“Well then, maybe there’s no one.” Jaja clapped his hands and laughed. 

They picked a place to seat just before the middle of the hall. Even without their extended fangs and whitish complexion, Vampires were easy to pick out and spot. They came with flair. 

Many, especially female had pets. Human pets of different gender. Just across the aisle beside Claude, a female Vampire sat with her pet, who was a male human. He was totally naked except for a black leather leash on his neck and a ring around the tip of his cock. 

She was lazily stroking her pet’s cock, which was very erect. He moaned in pleasure. Or pain, because the ring on his cock prevented release and the pressure was mounting as his master continued stroking and giving him a hand job. The tip of his cock was very red. 

In front of Claude was another Fat Vampire. He was dressed immaculately in a thick leather coat which glistened in the dim light. Between his legs was the head of his pet bobbing up and down as she was sucking on his cock. He was sipping cocktail and talking with another Vamp by his side as his Pet deep throated his cock. The whole massive length of his cock fit in her mouth and throat.

Claude could also see some Vampires ignored the cocktail or Champagne being served and preferred the taste of their pet's blood. But atleast, they drank responsibly taking little drinks from the pet's neck where they had made little love bites while nibbling and kissing. 

From the look on their faces, the Elfs and Feys were disgusted. Those who attended the meeting for the first time where almost as white and pale as the Vampires – from shock, that is. But in order to prevent arguments and violence, they all ignored, overlooked, closed their eyes. Anyone that works is fine. 

Jaja's laughter snapped Claude back into attention. 

“Claude... Jamie ever tell you how we met?” Jaja asked. 

“No.” Claude shook his head. 

“Cmon Jaja. There’s no need to tell.” Jamie said. 

“Ofcourse there is.” Then he faced Claude. “It all started with Jamie’s father. Mean old bastard, that one was.” He laughed then continued. “He forced Jamie to do the lunar initiation – “

“I thought that was a myth.” Claude said. 

“That’s because it’s supposed to be secret, but it’s not a myth, Claude.” Jamie said. “I spent 40 days in the forest on my own.” 

“Not on your own. Jamie boy.” Jaja piped. 

“Yeah.” Jamie said, smiling. “The Lunar initiation should alone. But when I went into the forest to begin, it was the same period that Jaja started too. He was older than me. He had been in there for a couple of days ahead me –“

“But you left before me, smart kid.” Jaja said. 

“So... the both of you met in there? How is that even possible?” 

“I don’t know.” Jamie shrugged. “Maybe it was in our destinies to cross paths.” 

“And you endured together?” 

“Yes. But we both ran different races. I don’t know if you get what I mean.” Jaja said, a faraway look in his eyes. 

Claude nodded. 

“Jaja spent a whole 9 days after I left.” Jamie laughed. 

“9 days?” 

“Let me tell you something, Claudie boy.” Jaja said, inadvertently giving Claude a nickname. “The ones who created that forest messed with the time too. A day in there can last 72 hours out here.” 

Claude eyes widened. “What the hell?? And you mean all Alpha boys have to do it?” 

“Not all. I mean, back in those days, it was a necessity. But now, the tradition’s waning.” 

“Will you send your boy there?” Jaja asked Jamie the question in Claude’s mind. 

“I don’t know.” Jamie said, solemnly. “Jake worries me.” 

“He’ll be alright.” Jaja patted Jamie on his shoulder. “it’s been a while. Maybe I’d come visit after this meeting. Let him spend some time with his godfather. Hell, he could spend the holidays in my pack, whatcha say, boy?” 

Jamie opened his mouth to speak but at that moment, the high chiefs of the meeting walked in and everyone stood. 

Henri’s Hazel eyes darted around and took in the whole room as he entered last and took his seat. 

Everyone sat and he said in his deep voice, “What do we have here today?”

    “Psst! Jason... can you see me?” Jake’s voice drifted over to where I was tied. “I can’t see nothing.” I whispered back. I strained against my bounds. They were tight. “Where are you?” “Over here.” He shone his wolf eyes. I saw them. “Lily would think I bailed out on her. I will never be able to look her in the face... she wouldn’t even want to talk to me.” I slumped back on the chair where I was tied “Are you crazy?” Jake whispered fiercely. “We’ve been kidnapped and bound by some crazy Feys and what you can think of is Lily??” “It’s not my fault I love her.” I said wearily. “Remember what to tell them when they ask what happened.” “I remember, don’t worry.” “Also, I don’t think it’s necessary to tell them about – wait a second! Someone’s coming.” Jake said and lay still like he was dead or sleeping. I didn’t know which one he was trying to play. “Do ou really think that what ever it is you’re doing is going to deceive them?”The door I hadn’t even noticed was there opened

    Henri looked bored. He hadn’t contributed a thing since the meeting started with the council talking about the rapid increase in price of their goods. The last topic for the day was the recent sighting of a new creature. Henri sat up now and his gaze flicked around the hall. He nodded his head and a lady strutted out from the front row. “Rosetta.” Jaja said softly to himself. “The only female Elder Vampire and a mean bitch too.” “Rosetta here...” Henri said and gestured to the white lady. “...has something to tell us.” “Henri darling, not me.” Rosetta said in a husky drawl. “One of my little ones saw something I’d like us to hear.” There was a ripple of murmur that went round the room. “Come in, my dear.” Rosetta said, sweetly. A young man came in from the side door. He looked uncertain and a little scared as he stood in the presence of all the Elder Vampires and other powerful members too. “Bruce, tell them what you saw." “Em... Well,” He coughed, then continued “Me and the

    “Full moon is tomorrow night and we have no idea where we are.” Jake said for the tenth time. Or was it eleventh?“Here... Put this on.” I handed him a gray robe. “Where did you get this?” He asked suspiciously. “Just... put it on.” “You stole it from the Watchtower, didn’t you?” “Yes I did. I had no idea why I stole it at the time.” I said, suddenly realising that I didn’t even know when I stole it. “Cool. Thanks.” He pulled the robe over his head and put on the hood, which was so big that it fell over his face. “I look spooky, don’t I?” He asked, turning to me. “No you don’t.” I laughed and said. “Let’s go this way.” “No wait.” Jake stopped and grabbed my arm. “What?” I stared at him. “I hear flowing water. It’s coming from this way.” I followed him. We walked for about 5 minutes through the shrubs before we came upon a wide stream. “Remember like last time? This might lead us back to our Pack. Let’s wall in the opposite direction.” I kept mute and just nodded. I didn’

    I could not believe my ears. “Did you say a Centaur?” “Y-yes" I tried to gather my thoughts... what have I read about centaurs?Yes, they can be violent when provoked. They don’t speak much but when they do, they speak in riddles. They move in herds. But I can’t hear any other sound of hoofs. “Jake" I whispered to my trembling cousin beside me. “do you hear any other hoof beat?” “Other hoof beats? Are there supposed to be others?” “Just try and listen.” I whispered back. He kept quiet for a while and then said, “No. Nothing else.” That’s strange. Now, I couldn’t even hear the one coming any longer. Where was it? I stretched my neck around the trunk and saw that it had stopped moving. It was standing about 8 feet from where we hid. It’s tail swayed lightly from left to right. And occasionally it stamped its left hind leg. It’s upper body, the part that was man-like twisted and turned, as if it knew we were there but just couldn’t find us. “We are doomed! I heard they can kick

    Claude was welcomed by a hug and quick kiss from his wife. “Jake is gone. Missing again. How is Jason?” “He is well. He seemed a bit nervous yesterday while eating lunch.” “Where is he?” Claude asked.“Probably with Charlotte’s kid. That would mean they’re both missing.” Lydia said. “Those boys.” Claude walked to a sofa and slumped there rubbing his temples. “Dad!” Harry bounded down the stairs to jump on his Dad’s lap. “My boy...” Claude opened his arms wide and crushed Harry in a tight bear hug. “Where’s your brother?” He asked Harry while balancing him on his lap. “He told me he was having his first fake date with Lily...” piped Harry. “He loves her, you know. Or so he says.” “You don’t believe him?” Claude asked gently.“I think it’s gross. Yuck!” Harry squeezed his face up. That made Lydia and Claude to burst out laughing. Harry jumped down from his father’s lap and raced up the stairs. He took some of the stairs in wolf fashion, landing on his hands and leaping higher.

    The sounds of birds chirping woke me up. I opened my eyes slowly and sat up. My back was stiff and cracked as I sat up and stretched. I turned and still saw Jake sleeping soundly. The sun was just rising. It had plenty of light but no heat, yet. I got to my feet and looked at where we were. There was not much to see. Just plenty of large, old looking trees. They were huge, I could hardly see their top branches. The ground space was covered with dead leaves, dry sticks, humus and little shrubs and bushes. I hard a sinking feeling in my chest that we might even be in London anymore. I turned when I heard Jake yawn. He was awake now and was getting to his feet. He looked at me with sleepy eyes and said, “You figured out where we are?”I shook my head. He groaned and dusted his robe. The watcher robe I had stolen for him. “You figured out how we’ll get home?” He asked again. I shook my head again. He groaned again. “Tonight is a full moon. I’ve never spent a full moon out of a pack

    "JASON’S NOT HOME.” Claude said, walking back into Jamie’s house. “Don’t sugar coat words, Claude.” Jamie said, slumping into a sofa and accepting the glass of whisky his wife offered him. He had unconsciously hoped that the boys were in Claude’s house. That was his last hope. “They’re missing... again" “Take it easy, Jamie boy.” Jaja said, patting Jamie on his slumped shoulder. Lily was in the corner with Jamie’s wife, Charlotte. She cradled a big mug of chocolate with her hands. Charlotte walked to the main room where the men sat.“What else did the kid tell you?” Claude said.“The kid has a name!” Charlotte snapped“I’m sorry. I’m just tired. What did Lily tell you?”“She said she had something like date with Jason...” “I know that much...” Claude said.“They were to meet under the large Oak tree.” “The tree is not near any of our borders, is it?”Claude shook his head. “No" “We have to go see the tree. What do you say?” Jaja suggested. “I think so too.” “We’ll be back, C

    YOU’RE HUNGRY, aren’t you?” Jake said beside me. We’ve been walking and resting at intervals. We were following the flow of the stream this time. Hopefully, it would lead us to a bridge or a main road where we’ll see where we are. Because we even have no idea where we were at. “Here.” I handed him the bag I carried. “There are some pieces of meat I reserved there.” “Thanks Jas. You’re a life saver.” He collected the bag from my hand and stuffed his mouth with cold meat. “Where do you think we are?” He asked with a full mouth and in between biting.“I don’t know. Maybe Africa.” “Africa?” His mouth hung open in mock horror. “Maybe... Kenya. We should see some giraffes or elephants anytime soon.”“Stop lying to me.” Jake laughed.“I truthfully have no idea where we are.” I told him. “But we’re really far away...” “Yep.” I nodded in confirmation. “Wow... mad stuffs.” He kept on eating till the sun became too hot and we had to rest underneath a large tree. We still hadn’t seen any

The wood had all burnt off.The main sitting room was buzzing with activity. People were coming and going, I heard Jake’s voice talking with someone.I turned and yawned and saw he was talking with Gibson. I grimaced as I remembered that this huge man was Dad’s replacement.

    I RUSHED NEXT door to the Alpha house and went on to find Jake.“They are in the study.” Elsa said as I walked in, as if she knew exactly who I was looking for.I headed to the study and walked in and realized why Elsa had said “they". I found him in the study with Alpha Jaja, Alpha Preston, Mum and aunt Charlotte.The heads turned to look at me as I burst in. I prepared to turn back but thought better of it so I stood my ground.I raised my hand and pointed with my thumb to the back. “Is he supposed to be here?” i walked into the room.“Who is that?” Alpha Jaja asked, pushing back his chair and standing up.We heard the door open and the sound of walking stick tapping the floorboard as footsteps approached.The pale figure of Henri filled the door as Henri came up and looked around the room. His eyes lingered on me before he moved on to Jake.“I came to pay my last respect. Your father was a good man and a strong Alpha.” He said and turned and walked away before any of us could say a

    SHE PULLED ME up with ease. I searched her eyes for any knowledge that I was banished and the reason behind it.I did not find any. Just the warm brown familiar eyes of and her wide smile. She was really happy to see me.“How have you been?” She asked, pulling me into a tight hug.My arms wrapped around her waist and I inhaled the nice fragrance from her hair. We stayed in the hug for some seconds before she pulled back and I noticed a squat figure just behind her.“Oh, this is Grem.” She said. “He’s a dwarf.”I looked closely at this strange creature, barely reaching up to my knees with large feet and hands and big black eyes too.“We have them at the pack now. Not as slaves, though. Of course not.” She said, laughing. “More like an exchange of relationship, we offer them food and shelter and protection and they run the chores of the pack. Like cooking and cleaning.”I made the appropriate noise to that because she nodded and continued. “Dad wanted to offer them money too, you know.

    A THICK SILENCE filled the air at the cabin. The fire still burned outside but not on its own now. It cackled loudly and the pungent odour of burning human flesh hung heavy in the air. Clyde was seated at a couch opposite Rosetta. Roland was standing in a dark corner, his ankles were crossed and arms folded.Henri stood near the window in his regular pose – one hand in his pocket and the other, holding his stick. But this time, he held the stick at the middle, the head of the stick was hooked to the curtain, drawing it back and opened slightly so there was a thin slice of moonlight casted over his features.Sofia came in from casting a burning spell on Tom’s body, her hands were tucked inside her robes. Clyde turned to her. She gave a brief nod and then settled herself down on the chair in front of the fireplace.“You have been staring at that too much, lately.” Henri pointed, letting go of the curtain and gesturing with the hand holding his stick towards the fire.Sofia nodded.It mi

    THE BURIAL OF an alpha is not small affair. Claude had been the longest lasting and once best friend of Jamie, so he was consulted as to what Jamie would have wanted.And Claude said what Jamie had told him years ago. Many many years ago.Jamie wanted his body cremated and half of his ashes buried in the cemetery, but he wanted his son, Jake to spray the other half of his Ash into a flowing river.At least even in death, he would still have the chance to explore.That evening, Jamie’s body was cremated just before the burial procession started.Zhao and Alyssé stood by a corner. Alpha Jaja had arrived a few hours ago with his wife. His eyes were red rimmed. He had been crying.The whole pack was dressed in black. Drakys III and Faerie were seated at a table, constantly consorting with each other.The grand magus was also at the burial. But all these guest were detached. They were mainly here out of a sense of duty and respect for the dead man.Only Preston and other invited werewolves

    MY MIND WAS in a turmoil. Mum left yesterday, or was it two days ago?I lost track of time.Then Dad was called too. He left last night.And that was how I ended up alone in America. I planned on staying in my dorm for the major part of the day. But I had to go to campus in the morning, I had a major lecture.I entered the lecture hall distractedly, my hood was pulled over my head as I settled down.I should call Jake, I said to myself. I should offer my condolences. Mum had sent me the news that my uncle was dead. Jake would be the alpha now.I randomly remembered a time when we were 9 and Jake had held my hand, saying I would be his right hand when he became alpha.It had seemed like a faraway dream as at that time.Now, it felt like another life.Another reality, but a reality nonetheless.I shook my head and brought out my laptop, and then I perceived it.I looked up sharply and caught the glint of the sun on that ginger coloured hair.She was sitting a few rows in front of me.

Sofia had used the wolfs bane to make a spiral on the ground.Clyde would pass by and whisper something to Tom and they would both share a giggle.“You will need a blood from a werewolf to complete the ritual.” Roland said to Sofia as she passed him.She stopped and cocked her head to a side as she looked at him. “You don’t sound excited.”“There’s nothing to be excited about.” He replied.She came to rest on the wall beside him. “Is there not?” She asked him. “You would train this one yourself.”Roland sighed.“We are going to use your blood and Clyde’s.” Sofia said in answer to his question.Roland pushed from the wall and walked inside the house.

    THE DRIVE WAS quiet. Neither man spoke, even their breathing was muffled and very quiet. While Henri paid his full attention on the road, Roland gaze flicked lazily out the window and over the ever changing scenery as Henri drove about 50 miles per hour over the speed limit. Roland kept expecting them to be flagged down but they were not. The car drove on heavily and soundly. The outside world changed from mountains and hills to random small houses and patches of farm to large ranches to a developed part of town with skyscrapers to flats and plains and finally thick trees. “The next turn on your right.” Roland said. Henri did not give any indication that he heard but he turned at the next turn. They drove on that lane for close to 10 minutes before Roland said, “Turn here.” “There’s no road.” Henri said. “Just turn.” Henri swerved sharply into the dirt and the Bentley bounced and groaned as the tires crushed the dry grass and gravel. There, in the middle of a large expanse of

    JAKE HAD WATCHED them go in circles for what seemed like eternity but was actually just 2 hours. The conversation had mainly been carried on by Preston, Drakys III and Faerie and Zhao.Drakys had suggested a centaur absent-mindedly.“A Centaur can’t take on an alpha werewolf on his territory.” Preston has countered. “Besides centaurs don’t just go on a killing spree.”Faeries had said, agreeing with Preston. “None of you had any bad blood with the alpha, do you.”There was shaking of heads all around the table.Faerie yawned a dainty yawn. Jessica sat, unmoving, her peripheral vision watched the still form of Jake. She knew he had something to say but had no idea why he was still quiet“The were jaguar then. Jamie’s nephew.” Zhao said in that lazy drawl of his. His watery eyes flicked a gaze at Jake.“I mean, he has motive. He was banished.” Henri added too. His first words in the meeting.It was that moment that Jake knew he had to join in. “It was not Jas.” Jake said. The alpha wolf
