We approached the wolf pack stealthily, shrouded in sinister shadows, where distorted whispers echoed, sending shivers through our fur. Malevolent shadows danced around us, toying with the fragility of our minds. I swallowed hard as I witnessed the silent passage of a black wolf among the shadows of the houses, its eyes staring at me with an unsettling familiarity, as if the entity before me shared similarities with my own father.I approached the alpha, brushing our fur together, and he directed his penetrating gaze towards me.“Fear not the darkness; it is the darkness that should fear us!” Lycan, the alpha, growled, whispering words that echoed with the promise of renewed confidence.The wolves seemed to have detected our presence, their paws making an unmistakable sound as they scraped the ground while running toward us. The ground trembled under the approaching pack, red eyes gleaming, and fangs dripping saliva as if they were rabid beasts.“There are many...” One of the wolves c
“SOPHIE... NO!” The Alpha shouted, but I exploded in magic, casting light throughout the space and hurling the witch against the pillar, causing her to slide to the ground.“HOW?” She looked at me, intrigued, groaning in pain.I sighed, trembling and stumbling on my feet as I approached her, stopping in front of her with difficulty; my vision was blurred.“YOU TOOK HIM FROM ME!” I growled loudly, the pain speaking louder. “YOU KILLED HIM!”I transformed my magic into a dagger suspended in the air, hovering near the witch's neck. “WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?” She looked at me, confused, until the whispers intensified. “I UNDERSTAND...”Laughing, the witch stood up, looking at me challengingly.“LET ME REVEAL THE TRUTH TO YOU!” She raised her hands, dragging me into a memory where Alpha and Victoria appeared. “What do you want me to do?” Victoria's wide-eyed gaze met his. “I'm sorry, brother, how can you do this to your Luna?” “Do what I'm ordering you, half-breed!” The Alpha shouted
POV: HARVEYI stood still, witnessing the advance of the flames devouring the surroundings, fixing my gaze on the spot where she had disappeared. I inhaled deeply, searching for her traces in the air, but in vain. It was evident that even the Goddess had allied herself with her, alongside the ancestors.“You lost her, Alpha,” taunted the sarcastic voice of the beast in my mind. “In the end, someone saw who you really are.”“Go to hell, beast. I have no patience to deal with a coward like you!” I exclaimed, feeling my chest rise and fall rapidly with agitated breath.The monster violently threw us against a pillar, its claws carving a painful path in my skin up to near my groin.“I'm not a coward!” roared the beast in my mind, ready to take complete control.“Then, don't run from the dark witch!” I growled in pain, trying to contain it. It wasn't the time; I needed to find Luna.“Ah, you love her!” laughing, the beast echoed in a malicious manner. “Poor cursed Alpha, lost your only hop
“I WILL NOT ALLOW IT!” Agatha's ominous words were a firm promise.It took an eternity to find her; the crack was getting smaller, indicating that soon the beast could completely take over my mind and control. It was imperative to locate the hybrid.I regained control, widening my eyes as I witnessed what the beast had done. Once again, more innocents were killed. He had found refugees from the crescent moon and shattered their lives.“DID YOU LIKE THE SURPRISE I LEFT FOR YOU?” He snarled, sarcastic in my mind. I took a few steps back, seeing the bodies pinned to the wall with the message, “LUNA IS NEXT!”“You will succumb before that happens, even if we both die!” I clenched my fists in a promise, making the beast laugh.I returned to my pack, completely bloodied.“My lord, are you okay?” The Beta looked at me, worried.“This blood is not mine!” I shrugged, walking past him. He stood still, looking around and sniffing.“ Luna?” Oliver swallowed hard, trembling.“ She's alive!” I grow
In the midst of the unfolding storm before me, I pressed forward without a defined destination. Instinctively, my inner wolf seemed to guide me as my transformations spiraled out of control under the experiments of the secluded witches. I entered a cave, its walls adorned with mystical stones called obsidian. Recalling a book I had read in the witches' city, I knew these rare stones were renowned for their unique magic, the true intentions of which revealed themselves in the depths.“Finally, you've come,” a soft and mysterious voice echoed firmly from a crystal-clear lake filled with obsidian stones. “You shouldn't have denied our call for so long, Sophie!”As she spoke my name, the witch's enigmatic voice sent a dangerous shiver through my fur. My wolf howled in warning, but we couldn't resist the call, as if we were trapped in the magic of this unknown being.“I am not unknown.” She stared at me, reading my thoughts. “I am Morgana, the bearer of Obsidian's revelation magic!”“From
“YOU WERE JUST A THORN IN MY SIDE!” She yelled with hatred. “BECAUSE OF YOU, HE LOVED HER MORE… BECAUSE OF YOU, YOUR FATHER LEFT US!”“No, that's not true.” I cried.“I killed Agatha; I killed your beloved Alpha; and soon, I'll kill your protected pup and drain him!” Laughing, she rose toward me, grabbing my neck with force, her huge claws tearing my skin and making blood flow.I stared, succumbing to her strength and watching her black eyes.“No, I won't allow it.” I raised my hands, touching her forehead and filling it with light magic.She took a few steps back, falling to her knees. The darkness seemed to leave her, bringing my mother back to her normal state, the one I knew when I was a child. Phillipa lifted her head towards me, looking at me.“Why didn't you kill me?” She was surprised. “Why didn't you hate me?”“You were so lost and suffering…” I whispered sadly. “I never wanted to lose you!”Tears washed my face. I was pulled forcefully, feeling claws digging into my stomach
I took a while to fall asleep as I gazed at the moon. A feeling of suffocation hung over me. Had I made a mistake by running away? No, my mind insisted that there were no mistakes in my decision; I needed those answers; it was my right. Especially after everything he had done, lying about ConanThe Alpha proved to be truly icy, perhaps shaped by his lupine essence; his emotions and ways of acting differed drastically from humans. I already knew this, but I didn't expect it to reach such an extreme!“I need to rest,” I whispered to myself with a sigh. “I hope Conan is okay.”I lay down, humming in my mind the songs I used to sing to the little brave one. It was a way to have him close, even when he was far away. Slowly, sleep enveloped me until I finally drifted off.In my dreams, I wandered through a dark forest permeated with the smell of decomposing flesh. A dense fog hung, full of malevolent odors. Every step sent shivers down my spine, and upon spotting a cabin ahead, I noticed th
“My lord?” Oliver approached with cautious steps, carrying a shadow of fear with him.“Speak up!” I growled impatiently, my eyes scanning the fallen bodies around me, evidence of the havoc left by the beast after regaining consciousness.“Some of them were humans, my king... I fear retaliation,” Oliver, the beta, murmured, his sharp analysis and caution marking each word.“They would be more prey for our amusement.” I smiled malevolently, savoring the idea with satisfaction. “And what about Victoria? Any updates?”I sensed my beta's unease; his eyes were fixed on the ground, the scent of fear lingering around him.“SPEAK UP ALREADY!” I roared, making him tremble even more.“Alpha... We haven't found Victoria or her cub in any of our hideouts, but we detected the presence of dark magic.” He swallowed hard, concerned. “I fear she may have succumbed to the evil.”“That half-breed planned this already,” I reflected. “She was waiting for the right moment to escape with my cub!”“Sir, it's
