"It's nice to meet you...Child of Prophecy." The demon smile was so menacing and taunting that I got a slight chill."Who are you?" I snarl."I'm Illim, one of Lord Demir's trusted servants.""Why are you here?" It seems her snake speech impediment is gone.Illim smile. "To kill you, of course. But also pick up a package for Lord Demir" She says it so boldly, and giggling it makes me angrier."Package? What Package?" Before I could ask again, I realized that there was one thing she came for...Merkon."Of course, I couldn't do it myself. I needed help.""Are you talking about Alvin and Leah?" I shift my eyes to Leah and Alvin, who don't show any emotions with their innocent expression."They were following orders. Those two will no longer be useful to me after I'm done here.""So, you shapeshifter yourself into me and then blamed me for the murder.""I was waiting for you to be condemned, but these fools," Illim looked over at the Elders. "They were taking too long talking with emotion
Luna Rising Twenty Five
I can feel Dominic growing impatient. He wants to rush and save his grandmother, but one mistake can cause Queen Ingrid's life and his. That feral was the werewolf who Illim killed pretending to be me. After his death, the demon must have become feral to cause trouble."Nick," sending through a mind link with Dominic, he flinches at my voice. "I have a plan. Will you listen to me? Just nod your head."He nodded."Good," I say. "Now, first, I want you to calm down. If you risk saving your grandmother, both of you will die. Remember what I said about ferals? They are strong. So, here's the plan. Once I get that feral away from Queen Ingrid, I want you to grab her at once. Understand?""How are you going to do that? What about the demon?""The Elders are busy with her. I'm going to flash the both of us behind the feral, and once I get his attention on me, you grab your grandmother."Dominic stays quiet, giving a thought as I can feel his emotion of worries consuming him. "What if that th

I grab my dagger off the ground and hide it away."Lippy!"I shifted my head until I was pulled into an embrace by Dominic. His arms wrap around my waist and his head to my neck. After being stunned by this sudden intimacy, Dominic pulls back and cups my face."Are you okay?" He checks my face to see any scratches or bruises.I smile softly and take his hands off my face as I hold them. "I'm fine. See," I twirl around. "Sure, I got hit here and there, but I'm perfectly fine. Don't worry."Dominic pulled on that face as it made me smile at how worried he was for me. I felt his emotions rising through the link that I almost lost focus while fighting Illim."Lippy?"I drop my smile as Ingrid, and the others approach me. I back away from Dominic, and I can see that the queens felt my anxiety about dying. I know I already accepted my faith once they all saw the demon magic I used. I'm not ready to die again."Lippy, we..." Ingrid looks back. "We, including my husband, wanted to thank you."
Luna Rising Twenty Seven
I waved my magic as it gave Elder Eldings a curious expression. "What's this?""A soundproof barrier," I explain; my whole body seems too close to a nervous breakdown that I took a step back, giving this Werewolf King and me some distance. If he does something to me, I can poof myself."Don't be fret, Lippy. I'm not going to harm you as I promised my mate."I feel uncomfortable talking to the man in control, who's technically the leader of the Elders, because he was the first to receive the gift of becoming a werewolf by the Moon Goddess - as they said."First off," he clears his throat. "I would like to apologize to you."I blink my eyes, shocked at his words."I was skeptical about you the first time we met," he states. "I heard stories about you, a human living in a werewolf packhouse, and being with my grandson wasn't ideal for a wolf pack to raise. But when I heard before the Mating Ritual, you decided to leave. It was quite a relief at first, but it made me curious why. Did you

"What are you talking about?" Malik asks."Once Leah made a deal with Illim, she had her eat the root of the black tree." Alvin"Black tree?" Bisera looks at her husband, who shrugs."Shit." I hiss after I knew what Alvin meant. "The black tree is known as the Wishing Tree. I know what he's talking about. Although it is called a Wishing Tree, once you eat the root from it, it can grant one wish and come true, but there is a price. To grant a wish, the tree needs an equivalent exchange, which can be anything the wisher desires. It is also the source of the miasma, making you into ferals. My friends and I searched for it but could never find it.""Ferals?" Questioned Vanessa."That's what I name them because they are much worse than a rogue," I explain. "I've been searching for the tree."When Arlo and Saye told me what they had found out, the miasma was flowing because it leaked from a Black Tree, a tree created by a demon with his blood. Grows in the soil and demon blood makes it grow

They keep coming. It's a never-ending cycle of killing a demon. When one dies, another replaces it.Leah is so much eager to have everyone here killed. She's the gate that needs to be close, and if those demons leave this castle, the world will be in chaos.I will not let that happen.After I crushed the heart of a demon with my bare hands, I took a moment to watch everyone fighting. The Elders, who have been retired for 500 years, look crazy excited. They are all out, showing their strength and skills while protecting themselves and each other.So this is what they were five centuries ago. These are the true power of the Elders.Amazing.I know they are powerful, but not that powerful. They are equal strength to my parents. I guess that makes them the most powerful beings in the world.In a blink of an eye, something fast passed by me. I turn to look and see a large black wolf crushing the head of a demon with its fangs. He turns his head, demon blood gushing out from his mouth as hi

Leah charges at me, swinging her claws around, flailing. I dodge each claw aiming at me as I jump up an eye level and land another fast straight punch to Leah's jaw, and her head whip back, her body arch backward, all of her momentum snapping back in her like a broken rubber. She lifted right up off her toes, clearing the ground. For one long moment, her body hung in the air. Then she landed with a thud that shook the ground.I paint and brush myself, feeling the adrenaline inside wearing off. I'm losing so much energy that I collapse to the floor."Lippy!" I turned my head slightly but was pulled into Dominic's embrace. He pulls back and cups my face as I stare at his distraught expression. "Are you okay?""I'm fine," I giggle to ease the tension going on and have Dominic be less worried.I hear a snapping of the bones behind us. Leah screams, and at high speed, she disappears in a blink of an eye."Shit, where did she go?" I muttered; Dominic had me in his arms as we both had our se
Luna Rising Thirty One
"Get them!"The three of us, Camila, Kaze, and I, all swift from our stance and attack them.I dodge and swing my daggers at the demons charging my way. Kaze and Camila are taking down every demon. My main focus was on Leah. Her demonic black eyes were on me as I kicked in the pace."This has to end, Leah," I mutter. "No more cowering."Running at light speed, I stab the last demon in the brain and jump above her. Leah's head tilts as I skydive toward her, grip the ends of my daggers tight as I calculate the possible hit. With the sharp ends of my blades, I aimed for her head, but she swung her arms in a flash and dodged the incoming counterattack.I had my blades disappear, deciding to use my fists instead. I repeatedly struck at her head, but at the same time, she had it covered by aimlessly moving her arms around, preventing me from taking her down. I need to figure out a weakness. I need to stop this nonsense without killing her.A hard impact of her fist had me flying back as I s
