“My Lord,” a young man sprinted through the council, avoiding to miss his step as the fear he felt prevented him from focusing. He came upon a door and knocked violently on it. He kept knocking and screaming until the door finally opened. “We are under attack!” he yelled before Malachi could disclose his anger. Hearing that, Malachi glanced around him, he noticed the unrest but he couldn’t see the instigator of the attack.“I don’t understand, where is the attackers?” he asked.“There,” the young man pointed over at the long walls where nightwalkers and rogues were jumping over.Malachi’s eyes widened, “how did they escape?”“I don’t know, My Lord.”“Lord Malachi,” a high chief yelled, sprinting towards them and only came to a stop in front of them, “the Nightengale council has fallen, as well as the Sliver-Bird Council, and the Golden Rose and the Willowsmyth.”“Pretty much all council has fallen,” Geneveive said, walking over to them in quick strides and behind her, Dennis was follo
Rasmus and Irene stood around, eyes flitting over to the demon rulers who had withdrew to the edge of the woods and wanting to know what they have decided. Rasmus sighed and glanced up at the bright moon, he doesn’t know if his eyes were playing a trick on him but the moon seemed to have gotten bigger and brighter. Glancing around, it was hard to believe that it was already night because of how bright the moon was and he couldn’t help but believe that Selene must know what here children are up against and so made the moon really big and bright to light up the night for them.A distant growl made him glance at the woods and he saw the demon rulers head sprang up as well. He sighed, knowing that it was only a matter of time before they would find their way there and the peaceful palace won’t be so peaceful anymore. He glanced at the palace, the blue flame was burning ever so steadily and he wondered if a miracle would happen for Edward to wake up right before the deranged got there. He
Sean stopped in front of the broken gates of what used to be the Blue Moon pack. They were wolves growling and attacking the few still sane ones and he easily spotted Damien trying to fight off about fifteen wolves that surrounded children. He couldn’t believe his eyes and neither could he believe that this was the very pack he left earlier that morning to go check on Aliyah.“It’s a mess,” Steven whispered beside him but he didn’t glance at him as he shape shifted too into his human. “Should we help high alpha?”“If they spot us now, they will all attack us,” he said.“If the Blue Moon pack is like this, I don’t even want to imagine how my pack would be,” Steven shrugged.“That’s alpha Alan,” Sean said as he saw the big brown wolf that seemed to be leading the rest in destroying the pack. His face suddenly turned to them and they hid behind the fence immediately, peeking at him. His eyes were white and his mouth drooled, “I can’t believe this.”“How are we going to check on Monica no
A strange howling sound roared in a far distance and Rasmus stood up from the pavement he had been sitting one. “That’s a wolf.”“I know,” Irene whispered, “they will be here soon.”“Did you have a vision?” he asked.“I don’t need a vision to know this time,” she smiled softly. They heard a faint sound coming from the woods as their eyes turned to it, they say the five High Chiefs without another nightwalker stepped out. “What are you doing here?” Irene asked.“To offer our last protection to our prince’s mate. The fight is coming here and this is where it will end,” Malachi answered and his gaze went to Rasmus. “I know you are still mad at me son, but we have to let go of our grudges tonight because none of us knows who is going to be alive tomorrow. This could be the end for all we know.”“Where is mother?” Rasmus asked.“She had been spending her days in Willowsmyth for a while now and Willowsmyth has fallen,” he answered.Rasmus closed his eyes and his hands clenched in tight fist
“Aliyah!” Irene and the rest yelled, waiting for her to be thrown back by the force of the fire but waited they did, however, Aliyah and Asher did not come out. “What just happened?” Irene asked, walking close to the fire and as she put her hand in it, she was thrown back forcefully that if it weren’t for Rasmus jumping in at the right them to catch, she would have landed on Kaiden’s feet or even in front of the deranged. They both fell on the ground, crashing heavily.“That is what I expected to happen,” Idrissa said in shock as Malachi rushed to help them up.“But why didn’t it happen to Aliyha?” Maleeka asked the very question in everyone once mind, even Kaiden was shocked as he never saw that happen.Taking the cue, Sean ran out into the clearing, he had heard Irene screamed for Aliyah but from their position, they couldn’t see the front of the palace so he doesn’t know what had happened. Damien knew Kaiden was see him and to protect him, he rushed after him, causing Steven and At
Kaiden waited and when there was no sign of Aliyah, he growled in annoyance and with a wave of his hand, the deranged started running into the space in full speed.Vertimon sighed and shook his head, “I guess, no matter what she is planning, we won’t stand idle by and watch ourselves getting killed now would we?” he asked.Malachi snarled just as Damien growled and black furs started appearing on his face as his flashed blue. He soon turned, shredded clothes falling beside him and he howled. Aton, Sean and Steven responded to the howl by shifting as well. Gerald wanted to shift but Steven shook his big black hair at him, telling him in the mind link to not join the fight.Maleeka giggled and leapt in the air, her long hair growing long as she swung it at Kaiden. Kaiden grabbed the hair and he watched as it curled on his arm and the more it curled, the tighter it became. He grunted in pain, trying to detangle the hair from his arm but it was to no avail and then Idrissa turned into a g
‘Edward,’ a mystical voice called, ‘Edward, it’s time. Open your eyes,’ the voice cooed. ‘Wake up, your people need you. Wake up Edward.”Far away from the palace, on a mountain stood a woman in black, “I should have known you would fail,” her voice spoke of her displease. “Even at a time like this, you still couldn’t win. I wish your younger brother was the one I saved his soul and not you,” she hissed. “But it’s okay, he would take care of you for me. The prince is hidden in the palace, even I can’t go in there, but it doesn’t matter, I have waited two thousand years for this, what is a little more years to compare. Now I know he is alive, I will just have to take my time and wait till he falls into my hands, oh because he will, he really will,” she smiled softly and vanished, leaving a cloud of smoke where she once was.Vertimon slowly pulls Aliyah down and Sean was catching her midair and placing her on the ground while cradling her head. His eyes were blurred with tears as he pla
Sean held onto Monica as a gust of wind left Edward, pushing past the witches and them as well. He closed his eyes and thought of Aliyah’s face, he could feel that this was the end. Edward would be breaking out of the witches hold really soon and would be massacring everyone. He couldn’t help but blame the High Howlers and High Chiefs, if they hadn’t rushed in killing Edward before, he wouldn’t have woken up to be heartless as he was now and perhaps, he would have understood that whatever Aliyah did, she did it to save her people and his.With two giant strides, Edward smacked a witch out of the formation and the force broke the woman before she even landed on the ground.“Quickly, close the space,” Irene yelled and the two witches standing at the sides hurriedly came closer and held hands. “Let’s raise a shield.” And with that, they all started chanting in an ancient language.Edward growled and targeted another witch, this time, before his hand could touch her, a shield rose and he
