Peace took Maximus for a walk around the premises of the estate so she could tell him about the woman she saw in her vision that mentioned Maximus' name."What did you want to speak to me about?" Maximus asked."When I was still a human, I used to have dreams just like everybody and I considered them as just dreams that didn't mean anything. But, after I became a witch, my dreams became more than just my subconscious at play. They became visions, they became hints, messages, and glimpses of the future. They became warnings and premonitions and all of them, no matter how insignificant they seem were always important," Peace said."Did you have one of your visions again?" Maximus asked."Yes I did, and it had something to do with you," Peace said."Me?" Maximus asked feeling perplexed."Well, you weren't exactly in it but your name was mentioned by a woman who I didn't recognize but maybe you do," Peace said."What woman?" Maximus wondered. "I don't know and that's why I asked to spea
Peace appeared at the wooden house that belonged to Constance which was the rendezvous point for her to meet up with Jennifer and Francesca.She walked towards the house and the door opened by itself to grant her entry. She went inside and found Jennifer and Francesca already inside waiting for her."Sisters, are we ready to go?" Peace asked."Yes, we are but I don't think Jorish will come with us willingly," Francesca said."If she doesn't, then we will force her to come." Peace said."What about her daughters? What if they try to fight us?" Jennifer wondered."This is an official arrest that has been unanimously voted for by all the elder witches. Her daughters will not interfere." Peace was certain."Then let us go and get it over with," Francesca said."Wait," Peace cried out and looked at Jennifer, "Did you bring it?" Jennifer nodded to the question and used her powers to manifest a powerful relic that they might need to capture Jorish with; The Urn Of Gamesh.Peace was satisfie
Leon woke up in the morning feeling like he'd just been hit by a truck. His lack of proximity to his mate, Sasha was slowly affecting his health and state of mind and no matter how hard he tried not to think about her, he couldn't help it. She was his soul mate and without her, his soul was not at ease.What was he to do? He had no way of communicating with her and the last time he'd done that, she betrayed him out of fear of Primo. He just couldn't understand why her love for him wasn't stronger than her fear of Primo. She had begged him to join her and serve under her new Alpha so they could be together but he couldn't do it. He couldn't serve the man who slaughtered Haruna and it shocked him to see that Sasha was willing to.Leon tried to stand up from the bed but he stumbled back down. Now was not the time to be weak, he thought to himself. He needed to be at full strength because of the trials they were to face in a few days with Obara and not to mention dealing with Primo's mad
"You've tainted your witch blood with the power of the forbidden dimension? How could you do this, Jorish?" Peace asked."Queen Hilluisa and the elder witches banned our kind from using this power because they didn't want any witch to surpass them. They created the concept of a blood dagger to kill witches when they knew very well that there was a power source strong enough to give us eternal life but they turned a blind eye to it. They were too selfish and denied us the true heights that we could reach but not anymore. I have tasted it and I want more." Jorish said with dark glowing eyes."This power was forbidden for a reason. It is corruptive and it only leads to more suffering. You know our history. You know what the Queen and the Elder Witches sacrificed in order to protect the Order from this evil power," Peace screamed at her."They were weak. They could not see; they were too blind to," Jorish screamed back."For as long as I have known you Jorish, you've hated and berated Con
The pack were dashing through the forest, looking for prey they could hunt together. Although they were out for a reason which was to hunt, they couldn't help but have fun.It had been a while since they just ran through the forest for fun without chasing someone or being chased themselves. It was nice to have one evening where they didn't need to think about war, blood or death. They were tracking a deer with its scent and its hoof prints in the dirt but Aliyah caught a new scent and made the pack stop so she could telepathically speak to them about an idea she had."I noticed a scent that has to be a herd of deers travelling together on the north side," She said."But we already have a deer we're tracking," Maximus said, not wanting them to split up."You guys go after the deer. I'll lure the others to your direction by chasing them south and that way, we'll have more meat." Aliyah said.Maximus didn't feel too comfortable with her leaving the rest of the pack but he knew she could
Since the day Moriah gave her life to save Nelly almost eleven years ago, Jennifer had not seen her ever since so she was ecstatic to see her again after so long."I used to always dream of the day I'd see you again but in those dreams, the circumstances were always different and better than they are today," Jennifer said."I would love to say that I dreamed of our reunion as well but that would be technically a lie because we don't sleep here in the Underworld hence, we can't dream but I have missed you, dear girl but like you said, the circumstances aren't great so come with me now so you can return to Earth as quickly as possible," Moriah said and reached out a hand for Jennifer to take."What's on the other side of the bridge?" Jennifer couldn't help but ask."A prison," Moriah answered."Isn't that what this entire place is?" Jennifer asked."That's a special part of the underworld filled with the worst damned souls you'll ever come across. The torment they suffer there is best l
"I've never seen a wolf with yellow fur before. Where do you think she's from?" Jess asked as they watched over the lone wolf.Her wounds had been cleaned up and bandaged and she was now in her human form but was still unconscious as her wounds were still in the healing process. Her hair colour was a light blonde because it lacked some pigmentation. Her skin was light and smooth and it was clear to see that she was an albino wolf which was a rarity. When humans become werewolves, whatever deformities they had become repaired when their DNA gets altered by the power of the wolf's bite. A skin condition, a terminal illness, an organ failure, or even a torn-off limb would regrow after a person becomes a wolf but for some reason, this woman didn't. Her skin was still light and her wolf's fur was yellow which meant she didn't get completely altered after becoming a werewolf."I don't know. We'll have to wait for her to regain consciousness so she can tell us." Mira answered."Well, I'm go
"TheWolfInside.com is this new website that was launched just yesterday and it already has over three hundred thousand subscribers and if you haven't heard why this website is becoming popular so quickly, then let us show you why!" The female reporter, Gail Chan on the entertainment news channel announced and a clip of one of Primo's betas shifting into a wolf began to play on screen.Maximus and his pack sat in the living room and were watching the report. They couldn't believe that Primo was actually doing this. This was by far the most disastrous event in the history of time and it would only get worse with time."This clip as well as many others that are available on the site have become the talking point worldwide and it has put this question on everyone's lips; Is it real? We have two people here with us today. One's a professional videographer who will analyze for us the authenticity of the videos and the other is an animal expert who can explain if scientifically speaking, thi
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
