Who is this Moriah and what does she have against Madame Constance?
"Thank you, Mara! I will never forget this." Moriah said and Mara Anjonu disappeared. "What's happening? What's happening to me? Jennifer, please help me." Peace cried out, suspended in the air. "Oh shut up, child!" Moriah said and pulled Peace close to face her. "I'm not your friend Jennifer and soon, you won't be you either," Moriah said with her red eyes glowing. . . . Back in the crypt, the guys were trying to escape but they couldn't penetrate the forcefield. They hit it with rocks and their weapons but it wouldn't break. "What do you think she's doing to Peace?" Samson asked after stepping away from the entrance, having given up on trying to break it. "I don't know but it can't be good. What are we going to do?" Nelly replied. He was now conscious after being thrown across the room by Moriah. Darryl was still in pain and he lay still in a corner, holding his abdomen. He began to stand, much to the disapproval of his friends who wanted him to rest. "We can't just sit he
Moriah opened her arms wide and her eyes glowed so brightly that the glow extended to her veins and all over her body."I gave you everything Constance. I gave you the greatest gift that anyone could ever give and you betrayed me." She cursed."Magic isn't something you can contain. You tried to hinder me from reaching my full potential because you hated the fact that your student was better than you." Constance said to her.Constance was now also glowing bright green. The two of them were floating in the air, powers charged and ready to strike."You won't win this time, Constance, because I won't hold back," Moriah said."Neither will I." The witches blasted Witch's fire from their fingertips at each other; Moriah's red and Constance's green. The flames met in between them and they had a test of strength of whose fire would take out the other’s.The two witches were equally matched with their flames so Constance flew from Moriah's beam and levitated a statue and threw it at Moriah.
Vengeance!The driving force that fuels the hearts of men and makes them do the most heinous of things. The slow serpent that curls around you while you sleep and strangles you without warning. The emotion that when acted upon brings nothing both sorrow, death, and destruction.**************************************************"Let me out of here and I promise you a quick death," Moriah said to the boys angrily."Yeah, that's not happening, Moriah!" Nelly replied."Look! We don't know what beef the both of you have with each other and honestly, we don't fucking care. Just leave our friends out of your issues and give them their bodies back." Samson said to both witches."I think I'll keep this body!" Moriah said."Me too! Nothing beats being alive." Constance said as well."You're both dead already. Just go back to being dead." Nelly yelled at the witches."I've had enough of this! If you won't leave them on your own, then we'll make you leave. Carl!" Darryl called out.Carl's spirit
Are you accustomed to the excitement that fills your mind and body when you run downstairs on Christmas morning, excitedly head over to the beautiful little tree in the corner of the living room to open your presents?You and your family exchanging warm smiles, drinking hot cocoa, and the love that spreads all over when you open up your present and it's something you wanted to have. You're filled with joy and happiness, so much that it can barely be contained.This isn't what our group of friends felt when they were preparing to open up the box. They weren't filled with excitement or joy, quite the opposite. They were terrified, they were unprepared for what they were about to do at that particular moment."Go on. Do it!" Nelly said to an already tense Darryl."Would you relax, Nels? I'm going to open it." Darryl said. He put the key into the hole but his hand just wouldn't turn it."You're worried about the curse, aren't you?" Jennifer asked.He stared at her but remained silent. He
"Don't even think about it, Moriah!" Samson said and stepped in front of Peace. Darryl and Nelly walked over to them and also stood in front of Peace. "You're not getting to her again so just get out of Jennifer and things won't get ugly," Darryl said to her. "I see you all are more confident about your abilities because you managed to stop me before. But, you won't be able to this time." Moriah said and levitated into the air, eyes fully glowing. "We won't let you do this!" Nelly said. Moriah used her telekinetic powers and held them all, except Peace. She pushed them all to the wall and pinned them there. "You don't have the power to stop me!" Moriah shouted and cackled loudly. "But I do!" A voice said. A strong gust of wind blew and Mara Anjonu materialized out of nothing and stood before Moriah. "Mara, my friend! Why have you come? I'm just about to..." Moriah began to say. "SILENCE!!" Mara Anjonu said to Moriah. Moriah wasn't pleased with the tone that Mara Anjonu was u
"What are you talking about? What's a Witch Dagger?" Nelly asked Moriah.She was dumbfounded by their ignorance. "You mean to tell me that you don't know anything about a Witch's Dagger?" Moriah asked, but the kids just stared at her, oblivious to anything that she was saying."What has that spirit, Carl, or whatever his name is, been telling you all?" She asked."Just tell us what it is," Samson said rudely."Oh, I'll tell you what it is! It's the only weapon in the entire world that can kill your little monster curse." Moriah said."What do you mean the only weapon? We thought we could kill him with any weapon." Darryl said."It seems you've stabbed the beast several times, did it hurt it in any way?" She asked."Well, yeah it did," Darryl answered."And did it ever slow him down at all?" "Well, no it didn't. But we thought he would get weaker after we burned the cloth and a stab to the heart would be enough to kill him." "Well, it won't, unless it's done with her Witch Dagger,"
"I really hoped that he would say that he was sorry for leaving me, maybe try to still keep in touch and we'd be able to pick up where we left off but he chased me away. And that's why I hate him!" Nelly finished saying, staring at Jennifer.She understood now his hatred for his father and couldn't blame him for it even if she wanted to because she also hated her parents for something not even half as worse."Our lives really suck, don't they?" Peace said. No one could disagree with her because they knew that she was right.Samson took out his phone. It was still on but there was absolutely no signal. So, he went to his music playlist and selected the Christmas song, "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey.He placed his phone in the middle of the table and they listened to the beautiful lyrics while staring at each other.It was almost as if the lyrics of the song were meant for them because, at that particular moment, all they wanted for Christmas was to be home with their
Looking for this Dagger would be as difficult as looking for Santa Claus when he comes to put your presents under the Christmas tree.Some kids usually stay up late so they can catch a glimpse of Santa, but they never do. The two situations are almost similar but in one case, you frown because you didn't see what you were looking for but in the case of Darryl, Jennifer, Samson, Nelly and Peace, they will probably be slaughtered by a monster and forgotten in the Constance's house, never to be discovered.****************"Alright! Where do you think Constance would have hidden her Dagger?" Peace asked Moriah, although she was too thrilled about it."Well, this house didn't exist while I was still alive so I don't know for certain but what I do know is that the Dagger has to be close to the Witch. It's a very important tool and since she used it to lay the curse on Kristopher, then it must be in her bedroom." Moriah said."But we don't know which room was her bedroom!" Darryl said."Yea
The next night, Cornelius Primo was ready to fly out to the gravesite that Gable’s men had found so he could get the most important piece of the puzzled for his plans to finally move forward. He had gotten dressed in his father’s cloak, an article of clothing that he had never worn since he killed his father. Gable came into his chambers, “Alpha, the chopper is ready,” He said. “Then, let’s get going,” Primo said. They both walked out of the house and onto the yard together. When they reached outside, five more men, including the pilot were already inside the spinning helicopter and they were going to accompany him just in case he needed some extra muscle. There was also a young woman in the helicopter with a bag over her head. Her hands and feet were tied up with ropes and she was also unconscious. “Is that the virgin?” Primo asked before stepping in. “That’s her,” Gable answered. Primo and Gable climbed in and the pilot hovered them off the ground and into the sky. They headed
Gable was in the underground section of the Mudders Estate and was supervising the final touches that were being made to the giant bunker deep within the soil. He had a grin on his face because he knew that it was almost time for the real plan to be kicked in motion. J came running up the stairs so he could give Gable some information about the progress of the dome. “Gable, I’ve got good news from the engineers,” J said to him. “And…” Gable asked. “It’s complete. As of now, the dome is officially complete,” J said with a proud smile on his face. “…which means that it’s time to have some real fun,” Gable said with a menacing smile. The Gemini wolf got out from the ground and went back up to the surface. He walked into the mansion so he could give the good news to his Alpha. He reached the Alpha’s chambers and walked into the room without even knocking. When he got in, he found Cornelius Primo inside his communication room filled with computers having a meeting with his high beta
PARIS A YEAR LATER “Au revoir, Jacqueline. Get home safe, alright?” A man said to his worker who had just left his bakery for the night. “Will do, Monsieur Henri. See you tomorrow,” She said as she walked away. It was late in the evening and a lot of businesses were closed. The streets were dark but thanks to the glow of the street lamps, there was enough light for Jacqueline to move around. She walked through the streets of Rue de Rivoli and she hummed to herself as she walked. As she was walking, she suddenly had this feeling that someone was following her. She turned to check but there was no one behind her. She felt maybe it was just her nerves for having left work so late tonight so she kept walking. Some distinct shadow suddenly ran past her from behind and she felt the wind. She gasped and turned around again but still, there was no one. Jacqueline was getting scared because she could feel that she was being stalked. The streets were empty and she was all alone so there w
Maximus found himself walking on an empty field and all he could see all around him was the green carpet grass. There was no one else and nothing else in sight, just the green.Nothing about where he was felt real but yet, he could feel the heat of the sun. He could feel the coolness of the breeze on his skin and he could smell the grassy aroma coming off the leaves. "Where am I?" He asked himself as he continued walking.Then, he spotted something just up ahead, something different about this place. He walked further until he saw it better. There was a section of the grass that was dried up and grey and it made a circle within all the green. Inside the circle, there was a tombstone on the ground and it had Allison's name written on it.Maximus saw her name and stopped walking. He stopped with his foot mere inches away from the grey grass. His eyes watered up and his brows flared together when he remembered his dead mate. He didn't want to be here because he was being reminded of som
"For so long, I have imagined this moment. I have played it out in my head what seeing you again would be like. I will admit that when I envisioned this moment, I was always scared of you. Even after I became a Witch, I was still afraid of just the thought of you because of how much you messed me up as a person. I have battled all sorts of things, all sorts of abominations that would leave even the strongest Witch emotionally scarred for life and I didn't feel a thing but with you, I would have nightmares and I would sometimes blink and in that quarter of a second of darkness, I would see your face and it would terrify me," Peace said to Constance."Aw, I left an impression on you," Constance said condescendingly, almost like she was making fun of Peace."You did," Peace admitted, "For so long, I tried to be the best Witch I could be just so I wouldn't end up like you. Everyone always raised their brows about me because I inherited your powers and they felt like I was doomed to go dow
The young vampire sat in a dark corner in Jorish's living room and was sobbing because she was so terrified by what was happening to her. She didn't want to believe that she was now a soulless blood-sucking monster but all the clues were pointing out that she was but she didn't want to accept it.The sound of her weeping started annoying Jorish who couldn't focus on the book she was reading. She started to rethink letting the girl out of the dungeon and played with the idea of putting her back but, for some reason she couldn't quite put her finger on, Jorish decided to converse with her instead. She closed her book and spun her chair around to face the vampire."You've been making that sound for almost twenty minutes now. Are you even shedding any tears?" Jorish asked her."I don't know why nothing's coming out," She said and rubbed her face but there were no tears even though she was really crying."Yeah, that's because vampires can't produce tears," Jorish said."I'm not a vampire,"
Maximus went to the lake around the mansion, to the same spot where he had kissed Allison for the first time after they imprinted. He sat by the lake and remembered that moment as one of the happiest he had ever felt and it made him even sadder that she was gone and he would never feel that way again.Whenever the mate of a werewolf died, he or she would have to get over their death mentally and emotionally before they would be able to mate again. If the werewolf isn't able to heal from the loss, they'll remain without an imprint for the rest of their lives, unable to find their mate to complete their existence. Maximus wasn't an ordinary werewolf; he was a True-born, True Alpha and he was strong not just physically but mentally as well. He knew he could get over Allison's death. All he needed was time but at this moment, it felt almost impossible to not feel the pain and the emptiness left by her absence. It hurt more than the injuries he had sustained at Primo's hands and all he co
With their tails behind their legs, the Saviours did the walk of shame after crossing through the hex and getting out of the car they had stolen from the concert. It was clear from the way they walked back to the mansion that they were defeated and it would take a while before they were back to full force because they had suffered a crushing defeat tonight.Jess and Aliyah were the first to go into the house. They turned around to see if Maximus wanted some company but he gestured at them to go and get some rest, signalling that he'd be fine. They did as he said and went upstairs to their room while Maximus kept walking and headed to the back of the house. Mira didn't think it was a good idea to leave Maximus alone at this time because she remembered how impulsive he could be. He hadn't been impulsive for a long time but the amount of loss they had suffered today could make him do something crazy so she decided to follow him to whatever part of the house he was going to.While she fol
PEACE'S POV...The amount of chaos and loss that occurred on this night was unlike anything I had ever witnessed. So many people turned while others died from the bites, their systems unable to handle the process of the change and their lives got altered forever because of one werewolf's delusion for power. Why did the vampires even do this? Why today of all days? So many things were out of order and it felt so unreal. I knew something was coming but I never once suspected that this could ever happen to the world on my watch. I never expected it to get to this point but it did and it came at a cost that I could have prevented but because of the Witcher's Law, I could only sit by and watch as the chaos ensued.Maximus Cullen, his Luna and his betas had suffered a crushing loss at the hands of Cornelius Primo and his Mudders and they weren't even able to stop his plans. They always knew their lives were in danger when they took it upon themselves to fight the Alpha Mudder but now, th
