“Thank goodness, you’re safe.” Heather hugged her husband. “I was so worried about you.”
“We barely escaped so we must lay low now,” Tom advised.
“I saw it in the news. It’s everywhere.” Heather was afraid. She felt her heartbeat fast. “The boys are on their way here.”
“Why?” Tom was not in support of their coming to see him.
“To check up on their father to be sure that he’s alright,” Heather explained.
“Oh, I see.” Tom smiled. “But this is not the right time to be making suspicious movements because the boy’s face is now all over the country and people will be looking for him. we need to keep him out of sight until we leave for the mainlands.”
The luna hugged her son even tighter in fear of losing her son in the human world she thought was safer than the mainlands. Lucas would not just be furious; he would murd
Balaam entered Tom’s house with a dark, huge and tall, good-looking guy. The room was silent as everyone stared in amazement at how well built the guy was. He had the stature of a werewolf even though he obviously wasn’t one.“Hi, Balaam!” Tom greeted him.“Hi everyone.” Balaam greeted and headed towards Raul to hug him. Raul smiled at his very good friend and hugged him. “I saw the news and damn I thought that you guys were set up. How the hell did the government get to be informed so quickly about this?”Raul gazed at Tom who also gazed at him and then back at Tom.“You have come at the right time for answers,” Tom explained. “Apparently this war has been in motion since before you were born and that incident was the right excuse that the government needed to make their move.” “I can tell you more about that?” the young man added quickly.Every
Hayley was all alone in her bedroom while her sister was busy attending to matters of the state and the witch was in her quarters. They all saw the news earlier and were glad that Raul and the others were safe.Hayley thought of Raul and tried to make her thoughts of him not affect her current condition. Suddenly, there was a gush of wind that caused the windows to open and she got up from her bed in fright.“Who’s there?” she asked. For a moment she thought that it was the witch so she waited for a while to see if she would see her but she saw no one. She got out of bed and went to shut the window when a soft voice greeted her from behind.“Hello, Hayley!”She gasped and turned to find the Moon goddess standing there and staring at her. she swallowed hard and genuflected to reverence her presence.“Greeting all-wise and powerful one.”“No please; get up dear. You’re the mother of our lit
Yutti had finished the transformation process and returned to his human form. Raul and his friends were amazed at the way Betty and Paul slept all through the transformation process. The luna went in constantly to check upon them.“They’re still sleeping.” She told Raul as she came out from checking upon them.“Is this normal?” Raul asked Yutti.“Well, I haven’t done too many transformations. But the few I have done were at odd times so I wasn’t able to get a record of their behavior during the transformation.” Yuttt replied.“So what do you think is wrong with them?” Kal asked in curiosity.“Do you think that they’re dead?” Heather asked.“They are supposed to be dead because the transformation can only take place when they’re dead or unconscious,” Tom explained.“The first one I did, she did faint but I can’t remember wh
After the meeting was over, Raul picked up his phone to contact Hayley. He missed her a lot and wanted to know how she was doing and also to give her progress reports on their plans so far since they were to leave for the mainlands in two days.“Hi baby!” he lay in bed, relaxed and in a position that would allow him to fantasize about her while he spoke to her.“Hi, honey!” Hayley replied from her end.“What’re you doing?”“I’m in bed; relaxing from jogging. The baby said that he wanted me to jog a little.”“The baby told you that?” Raul sounded surprised.“Yes; the baby speaks to me all the time,” Hayley replied with a wide smile on her face.“Oh wow! Is that normal?” Raul was confused.“Oh, no honey but this baby is special.” Raul wondered what she meant by that. He had heard that babies were special but h
Raul realized how important it would be to make the woman a part of his team even though she did not have to transform, to remain in the human world to fight against the new decree. He needed her to represent their rights in the world of the originals.He admired her sense of direction and hoped that she would not be frightened if she saw an actual werewolf or change her mind towards them. “It may not be that easy because she is fighting for her people,” Heather suggested and interrupted his thoughts. “As it is now, I don’t think she has ever seen a werewolf before.”Virgil scoffed and added. “It might become a different story if she ever saw one in reality.”“I doubt that.” Raul defended.“Why? She’s a human too and she’s only raising this mob to fight for what she believes which is that the government is restricting their rights to life.” Tom reminded her. &ldquo
Raul was surprised to hear her mention those words. He had thought that she had no idea of the terms in the werewolf dictionary.“You know about that?” he asked in a soft voice.Stacy laughed softly and replied. “Is there anything that I do not know about? My husband is in the military too. But he is retired. That device that the president spoke of, he was a part of the project but since there were no reports of werewolves in our world for many centuries, the device was packed up and kept with him in a safe place to be retrieved when needed.” She narrated.Raul raised an eyebrow as he gazed at her in amazement.“The device was retrieved some days ago after the news of the little werewolf boy who was caught by a mob and the mother werewolf came to his rescue but escaped the military. They even got intel that the house where they were harbored belonged to a human. The human was supposed to be arrested but the military was not o
Stacy gazed at them with her eyes wide open in surprise.“Are you serious?” she asked.The luna nodded and smiled at her. “You seem surprised.”“You guys look like you have been amongst us longer than we know.”“True.” The luna replied. “We have been around for centuries. I have been around for more than a century.”“Wow!” Stacy exclaimed in amazement. “You guys can live that long?”The luna smiled and took her seat. Stacy exclaimed again as she took a good look at every single person in the room. She held the recorder up and then placed it on the table. She was just about to put it on before Tom cut in and asked her.“Wait!”She paused and raised her head to look up at him.“Before you turn it on, I have some questions to ask you.” Tom continued.Stacy sat up straight and asked. “Ok; what is it?&rdquo
Raul was heartbroken to hear the news he heard about Stacy. She seemed so innocent to him that he could hardly believe that she was the spy that the priest warned him about.He wanted to head inside and question her but tries to control his temper. “So where is Balaam now?” he asked.The governor replied. “He is safe.”“So I have lost almost a hundred and thirty abled fighters?” Raul wanted to be sure of what he had lost so he asked.“I’m sorry, Raul. You need to know that we will not rest until we have gotten more men to fight with you.” Tom tried to console him.Raul’s eyes did not leave the house as he imagined himself dealing personally with Stacy because he was the one who brought her to the group and everyone trusted her because of him. he felt guilty and wanted to correct the situation as quickly as he could.“I’m going inside.” He warned.“Why?
