"Careful with that last batch, babe. Every single drop of this is valuable and we can't lose any of it," Aliyah said to Jess.Jess took the last tube of the unfiltered formula and put it in the electronic device that did the filtering. It was a small batch so it would take only a few minutes for the formula to be extracted from the harmful elements and separated from it."I can't believe we're almost done with this," Jess said excitedly."Me either. And to think I was keeping this a secret from you and now, I'm succeeding because of your help," Aliyah said appreciatively.Jess went over to her and they stood side by side, leaning on the table while the machine did its work."After it's ready, what will you do next?" Jess asked."I'll take it to my dad's university and give it to the other scientists to get out there and start saving people's lives on the condition that they give him all the credit and repair the damage they did to his reputation when they called him insane," Aliyah sa
"What is he doing here?" Selena asked Peace because she wasn't happy that Maximus was there."He's here to help us out. You seem to lack the proper motivation to hone into your powers and Max is here to turn that around," Peace said."What's he going to do that's going to motivate me? Scream at me, chase me out of his life and never call me again?" Selena asked rhetorically."I think it's time I excused myself," Nelly said awkwardly before he stood up and walked out of the endless room."I have explained over and over again why I asked you to leave that night and I've apologized for it, Selene. What else do you want me to do?" Maximus wondered."I want you to feel bad for what you did. I want you to care a little bit more than you're claiming. I get that you lost your family, I get that you were hurt and probably needed some time on your own to heal but as soon as you did, you found yourself some other girl and discarded me like I was nothing to you," Selena broke down in anger."You
"Arghh," Maximus screamed as he fried, the bolts from Peace's lightning relentlessly shocking him up.Peace wasn't getting anything out of Selena so she stopped using her powers on Max whose shirt had turned to a crisp on his bare body."Why did you stop? I felt the power coming out," Selena said sarcastically."That's not funny and you know it. You're not even trying, Selena," Peace told her."Yes, I am.""No, you're not. You just want her to keep hurting me," Maximus said, breathing heavily."Hmm, maybe that is what I want," Selena replied to him with a raised brow.Peace had had enough. It was time to flip this whole thing around to work in her favour."I've had enough of this. You'd very much rather prefer seeing Maximus suffer than learn to use your powers. Huh?" Peace asked but Selena stayed quiet."Alright, then. I'll indulge you." Peace raised her hands together and a ball of red energy began to form around the tips of her fingers."Peace, what are you doing?" Maximus asked be
Jill sat in the middle of the back room with a bowl of chocolate ice-cream in her hands and her cheeks were red because of all the sobbing she'd been doing. She was not doing great at all and her brother was very worried about her because he had never seen her like this before. He could tell that what happened meant a lot to her because she didn't cry this much even when their parents died so the fact that she was crying so hard about this showed how much what happened affected her and she just didn't know how to properly deal with it."Jill," Jack said as he came down the stairs, "Are you alright down there?" She remained silent and stuffed her face some more with a spoonful of ice-cream. "It's been hours since we got back and you've just been sitting there sulking. Why don't you at least take a bath and eat some real food?" Jack said and walked over to her but she just kept eating.He was getting a little annoyed with her because he didn't understand why she was taking this so per
Jack's vision was blurry and the world was spinning around him. There was this ringing noise in his head and for what felt like an eternity, he couldn't focus his mind on anything.He tried to move but realized that he was sitting on the ground and was tied up to the trunk of a tree. He used his left hand to tug on the rope but he couldn't get it off him so he tried to use his other hand as well and that was when his brain finally felt the pain. Jack couldn't move his right hand and he didn't know why but when he looked at it, he found out."Argh," He screamed in pain and shock when he saw that his right hand was gone, completely ripped off its socket from his shoulder."Oh my God! Oh crap," He kept screaming and struggling with the rope, trying to free himself but it was futile."Look who finally decided to join the land of the living again," Gable said and walked into the light.The Gemini wolf didn't have a shirt on, only his trousers and there was blood on the side of his face fro
THREE DAYS BEFORE THE CONCERTJill held her sword behind her with her eyes closed and took in a deep breath. She swung the sword around and guided its graceful flow as it cut through the wind, dancing with it like it was an extension of her arm. She held the sword out, opened her eyes and raised her other hand and gestured that her opponent comes to her.Michael was on the other side of the lawn with a sword in his hand as well. He had a smile on his face because he had been waiting for this day for a while now. This was the only time he had ever sparred with a member of their team in his human form because he was just sixteen years old and the others were a lot bigger and stronger than him as humans. Since Jill joined the pack again seven weeks ago, he had wanted to train with her as a human because he never had anyone to practice with.A werewolf needed to be able to defend themselves in their human form because it wasn't always every time that they would be able to unleash their wo
Sheila still wrote her letter without tearing her gaze away from the paper even after she heard the tone that Sasha was using with her. She didn't show a single atom of interest in what Sasha was saying and this angered the beta even more."Did you not hear me, Luna? I demand recompense," Sasha said again."I heard you the first time. What upsets you?" Sheila asked, still not looking at her."I know that there's something else going on with the pack, something other than the upcoming indoctrination and I want to-No, I demand to know what is going on," Sasha stated boldly."There are still some things that only Primo and I can know. That is why we are the leaders of this pack. Your demands cannot be met," Sheila replied coldly."It doesn't make any sense that you'd keep certain information from me. I mean, J knows what's going on but I don't? If J can know, then why can't I? You said it yourself that after you and the Alpha, comes Gable and then, me so why am I not aware of what's goin
Jorish appeared just outside the vampire's den although she had intended to appear inside the building so she could speak to the Vampire Lord Marcus because the day of reckoning was getting closer and they needed to go through the plan before the concert. Her powers were on the fritz because she was running out of her energy source. The beautiful girls she had stolen were quickly reducing daily and she didn't have the time or resources to get more girls whenever she needed so she had to ration the ones she had and absorbed their beauty only when completely necessary.The golden-eyed Witch walked over to the entrance and wanted to enter but she realized that the gates were closed shut."Marcus!"She yelled out for him but he was too far inside the huge house to hear his name but Darius wasn't. He and some other children of the night were on the premises and they could hear her so they walked over to her to inquire about why she was there."What do you want, lady?" Darius demanded to kn
