“WHAT DO YOU want?” I asked him. “I...” He licked his lips and eyed me. “I know what you are.” Then he took a step back as i flashed my green eyes to him. “I asked what you want.” I repeated. “I want to help you. My kind has your friends. I know those boys are innocent but Rosetta will have them killed anyway. I know where they are stashed. I want to help you release them.” He said all this hurriedly, like it was rehearsed. “Vampires don’t have any one bit of humanity or compassion in them.” Jake said, he came to stand by my side. “What do you really want?” “Not all Vampires. Besides, I’m a young one, u was turned a few hundred years back.” He said defensively. Then he added, “When I ran back to meet my people that night to tell them what happened and what I saw, I was berated and bullied. They made my life a living hell. They told me I might have made a difference in saving Xavi. I knew I could do nothing, but as you said, Vampires have lost all shred of compassion.” He sounded
We never really stood a chance. But we fought hard. We dropped 6 Vampires on the spot and Jake must have bitten maybe 5 of the other Vampires. And I knew for certain that werewolf bite was fatal to Vampires. They wouldn’t die immediately, but slowly and excruciatingly painful. But they had enough strength left to knock Jake out cold and bring me to my knees. I surrendered mainly because Jake was out. But the bundled us up with the others and stumbled out. “That was awesome!” Zach yelled. “True, Jason.” Billy said. “Where did you learn to fight like that?”“You dropped the 4 of those Vampires by yourself. Jake bit them too, but you gave the killing blow.” Mart said, coming over to my side. “When did you guys get back?” Arthur asked. I crawled over to where Jake was thrown and checked his pulse. It was low but still beating. He had shifted back to human and was now naked. I wrapped him with my jacket and went back to where I stayed. “I’ll answer all your questions when I wake.” I
“Call the number back.” Jaja urged Jamie. “The number Rosetta used to call you... Call it back. Now.”Jamie tapped the screen nervously. His hands were shaking.“I think you should calm down, Jamie.” Drakys III said. He turned and whispered to one of his men beside him. The Fey drifted away into a side door. “You look like death, Jamie. Just take deep breaths.”Claude collected the phone from Jamie, whose hands were shaking.Claude, with precise composure, scrolled on the phone's screen and found the recent number and called back.“It’s ringing.” He mouthed to his companions.The Fey that had gone out few moments before drifted back into the throne room holding a glass cup with was filled with a white milkish liquid.&
“WHAT DO YOU want?” Claude spoke into the phone. He put the phone on speaker so the others in the room would hear what was being said. “Nothing, actually.” She said and laughed in a girly manner. “I mean, I already have what I want. Jason and Jake.” Jamie looked like he was going to burst. His face went red and he clenched his fist. Rosetta spoke again “I am sure I’m in loud speaker so everyone else in the room can hear me.” Jamie shot Claude a how-did-she-know look. Claude just shrugged. “I want you to listen carefully.” She continued. “On the next full moon, I’m going to kill those boys, the seven of them. And dump their bodies on the area of the morteaux flower. After all, it seems right that it should all end where it started in the first place.” “Rosetta don’t do this.” Drakys III spoke. “Ah,” Rosetta exclaimed. “Is that not Drakys? So you wolves travelled to the Elven Kingdom. That was a bad decision because your pack needs and Alpha now more than ever.” “What do you mea
I walked behind everyone in the group with Jake leading. I was sulking and I knew it. I mean, he was not even the one that came up with the idea of following the moon... why was he leading? Arthur should be the one leading the party. Jake was just so... Bossy? The voice asked in my head. Yes, I said... welcoming the company of my Cat. He had been quite quiet these past few days. I guess it was growing faster than I was. You are different, it said. Of course i know I was different. I had always felt different. You are stronger. Faster and more superior than them, it continued. I walked behind Mart, who kept glancing back nervously. I did not care about what they thought anymore. My mind had left where I was walking, I was just putting a foot in front of the other automatically. I was still quite vexed at Jake's behaviour.I heard a sound. It came from quite a distance. We had been walking fast for almost an hour but I did not know how much of a distance we had covered in th
After a long, awkwardly silent flight, they finally touched down in London. A black limousine was waiting in the driveway. The Alphas and Claude helped themselves into the limo which was driven by a long haired man. The entourage which followed them to the Fey Kingdom, came in another black SUV which drove behind the limousine. "Jamie, calm down." Jaja said. "I'm not nervous." Jamie replied, tapping his thumb against his knee rapidly. Claude on the other hand was very calm. He sat still. The drive from the airport to the pack territory was not a long one but it seemed to take forever. Finally after, what felt like 10 hours which was infact 10 minutes, the limo swerved into the pack and drove straight to Jamie's house. Jamie jumped out even before the car came to a stop and bursted into his house. Claude and Jaja scrambled after him. They rushed into the house and met Charlotte, Jamie's wife who was the pack's luna and Lydia, Jamie's sister and Claude’s wife. "What happened
Jamie opened up his study at the first knock. "We need to talk, Jamie." Claude spoke as soon as the door opened. Jamie nodded and said, "Do come in." Then he saw Pete and stopped, "Pete, do you have anything for me?" Pete snapped to attention and said, "Yes sir. We caught some movement in the motion sensors that we set up.""What motion sensors?" Jaja asked, glancing from Jamie to Claude and to Pete. Claude shrugged to say that he did not know anything about it either. "After the other set of boys got missing, I had the security team get motion sensors and had them place it at strategic places in the woods surrounding our pack" Jamie said and stepped forward. He turned to Pete, "Movements? Where was this?" "The site of the morteaux flowerbed, sir." Pete said. "Rosetta." Jamie breathed, he grabbed his coat and started to walk out. "Jamie... I need to tell you something." Claude said. "Can it not wait?" Jamie asked, glancing back. "It can not. It's urgent." Claude said. "Wel
The University of Westerham, California boasted of being one of the best in the country. And in as much as people from all over the world and of all races attended the school, I could not help but stand out... and I mean that literally. Now standing at 6 feet 2 inches, I was the only English boy from London in the whole university. While in the pack in London, I had not noticed how strong our accent was until i got here. At first, the American accent sounded weird and too fast and their vowels were too flat for me to follow but now, I have gotten used to the accent, but not used to the double looks people gave me when I spoke. Its been a little over a year since I was banished from North London pack and I must say banishment is a light punishment to the crimes I was charged but i still remembered everything like it all happened yesterday. The alarm rang above my bed jolting me to reality. I jumped and prepared for another hectic Monday morning in this campus. I was still a fre
