Sorry for the late update. Thank you for being patience. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. What do you think happened to Serenity?
Javonte But what I wasn't expecting was to hear another voice, "Your family member was in an accident. Come with a doctor and no one else." The female voice on the other end seemed caring. However, I was a little skeptical about why she wanted me to come alone. I quickly jotted down notes and requested a pack doctor to journey with me to this unknown address. We arrived outside a rustic cottage deep in the forest; nestled among tall, whispering pines. The scene was almost surreal, like stepping into a different era. An older woman was sitting on the porch swing, seemingly anticipating our arrival. She stood up and, without a word, opened the door and ushered us in. The atmosphere inside the cottage was warm but carried an air of mystery. "Doctor, the young lady is in the last room on the left." The doctor glanced at me briefly before walking away. "Thank you, Ma'am, for taking care of my fiancée. Here's some money for the trouble we caused." I produced a check for ten thousand d
I woke up with electrifying tingles covering my body and Tay's mouth-watering spearmint scent surrounding me. Rolling over and facing him, placing tiny kisses on his lips. A hum of satisfaction left his mouth. Untangling from his embrace, the sun shines brightly in my bedroom.Wait, when did I get home?My body was extremely sore, and my head was pounding. I felt around and felt gauze wrapped around my head. I must've banged my head harder than I realized. “You have a concussion and staples in your head, hot stuff.” Tay stopped me from removing the bandages. Leaning down and kissing him, our lips meet in desperation and a need for reassurance. Our tongues clash with each other, seeking dominance. We broke apart, panting and breathless, the intensity of the moment lingering between us."What happened?" I asked, my head still pounding away like a beating drum. Tay's demeanor changed. He steadied his breathing, searching for the right words to say, "Slasher Pack attacked my pack, and y
I sat at the table, twiddling my thumbs, watching the clock tick away. After five minutes went by and Luna Ashley still hadn't returned, I gathered our belongings and headed towards the restroom.On the way there, I spotted Luna Ashley chatting with an old woman and Headmistress Toya. The way they were speaking suggested they had known each other for a long time. The sight of them together piqued my curiosity.I arrived just in time to overhear the old woman saying, “They already know about Serenity and Javonte. The coven will seek Javonte out when he needs them the most. Serenity is special. Take good care of your daughter-in-law. She is fragile but a great leader.”I cleared my throat, linking my arm with Luna Ashley and greeting the ladies at the table. Was this the same woman who saved me, and is she a hybrid? How does she know Luna Ashley?Before I finished analyzing my thoughts, Luna Ashley formally introduced us: “This is Kyle's mother, Gemma, also the former headmistress of th
Javonte We strolled inside the steakhouse. I had reserved the conference room for the meeting. Checking the audio and video surveillance setup in the room, I ensured everything was ready before ordering a variety of appetizers. The room was dimly lit, with a large oak table at its center and plush chairs surrounding it. The smell of grilled steak and fresh bread wafted through the air, mingling with the scent of anticipation. The food arrived, followed shortly by Alpha Debbie and her security team. The moment she stepped across the threshold, the atmosphere turned intense, charged with a distinctive electricity. Alpha Debbie’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when she saw Serenity sitting next to me, her presence a deliberate provocation. “Welcome, Alpha Debbie.” I stood up from my seat with my hand held out, maintaining a facade of politeness. She shook my hand and smiled back. “My pleasure, Alpha Javonte. I didn’t expect you to bring your plaything to the meeting with
Serenity The first snow of the winter, a thin layer blanketing the ground, I sat on the couch wrapped in a blanket, drinking hot cocoa, and flipping through catalogs. Tay had gone home to prepare for our winter wonderland inauguration, slash wedding. After a six-month standstill with no new leads or thoughts on what to do about the prophecy, Alpha Louis thought it was best to make Tay and myself the official leaders of Meadowood. The pressure of leadership loomed over me, but today, the excitement of the upcoming wedding was all I could dwell on. As I sipped my cocoa, a knock on the door stopped me in the midst of searching for the perfect gown. My friends, Jordyn and Camila, burst in, their cheeks pink from the cold and their eyes sparkling with excitement. "We're here to help you find the perfect dress!" Camila announced, holding up a stack of bridal magazines. Jordyn grinned and handed me a steaming cup of tea. "We’ve got appointments at a few boutiques in town. It's going
Serenity Age: 13Why is it so hot tonight? Tossing and turning, seeking cool spots in the bed. I turned the ceiling fan on high, stripped down to my undergarments, and threw the comforter on the floor. It cools me down enough to get some rest before school.“Princess, it's time to wake up.” My mom, Trinity, moved my shoulders. “Josiah, get in here! This child is burning up.”My dad rushed to my bedside without missing a beat, he wrapped my wet sheets around my body and rushed me to the emergency room.Though my body was burning inside and out, I could feel the cooling sensation that I was placed in a tub of ice. It felt amazing; the burning sensation ceased. I heard the pack doctor informed my parents that my estrogen level was low, which caused me to have hot flashes.I was told to have to take cold baths or showers when I felt overheated. Is that really the case?Anyway, this was not the way I wanted to spend my 13th birthday. On top of that I have to go to the newcomer celebratio
Serenity Age: 18My friends and I sat on the cliff, watching the sunset. The orange-red hues light up the night sky. When I looked at the sunset, I felt at peace. There was something about it that was soothing.We lay gazing at the night sky. “Has your wolf spoken to you yet, Smurf?” Corey spoke, breaking the tranquility.“No, my parents believe that I'm a late bloomer, and she might come on my birthday.” I let out a deep sigh.It has been nerve-racking knowing all my friends can converse with their wolves, and I haven't heard from mine.“I guess we get to meet her tomorrow at the Grand Celebration. Your mom throws the best parties. Our graduation party was epic. She didn't hold back any punches.” Camila's bubbly self giggles.“Yeah, I'd rather she be late than not at all. I'm a freak as it is."“You are not a freak; you are special! Stop doubting yourself. Now, please make me an animal. It's finally dark enough for me to see them.” Camila responded.I shook my head at her demand and
Serenity The flickering light illuminated the dark cell. The walls had brown cobwebs and dust bunnies laid over the floor. I was probably the first prisoner since the Dark Ages. I thought to myself. I curled up on the cold concrete floor, still wearing my undergarments. Alpha Kevin sat across, glaring. His arms were folded over his broad chest, and he was tapping his foot. His aura was suffocating.“Why were your eyes gold and not black? Have you been practicing witchcraft?” He barked.I glanced at him, “They were contact lenses. No, I haven't been practicing witchcraft. Debbie is always causing trouble, and yet once again, I'm in trouble for something she made up," I huffed. “This is not about Debbie; this is about you having gold eyes, Serenity.” He retorted."Well, Alpha, I just told you why my eyes were gold. If you don't believe me, then have my parents bring them to you. This pack has been biased towards me since I can remember."“Enough with the attitude. We have treated you
