MARCUS POVStop the excuses Laura, if you don’t have enough capacity to handle a simple request like this then tell us now so that we can find another person to handle it. But you must know that failure to bring Flynn to us before sundown tomorrow will cost you your life.I recalled the last words the two young men said to Laura about Flynn. I never wanted to intervene in the matter but the fact I knew that his closest friend was about to betray him and I had the opportunity to save him was killing me.I had many reasons not to help him; one of those reasons was that I didn’t know if Flynn had the same intentions for her. While contemplating on the matter I took out the address the waiter at the restaurant had given to me. “What in the world should I do?” I thought to myself.Buzz… Buzz…The vibration of my phone knocked me off my thoughts. I took it out of my side pocket only to see that it was Alicia calling. My mind skipped at the sight of her name. Considering the clash we had a f
MARCUS POVI walked out of the hospital with my eyes on Stiles cell phone. I had taken his scent since following it was the only way I would get to him more quickly.I took Flynn's car as I tracked Stiles’ scent down to a highway. There were forests on either side of the road and just by a corner was a small road. His scent was coming from that area but since the road was rough I came out of the car then forged ahead on foot.I travelled several meters until I arrived before a signboard with the inscription. DANGER: NO TRESPASSING.It was weird but I neglected the warning as I continued moving. What was the worst situation I could expect from this? I was a werewolf and if there was anything scary beyond the poster, then it was me.It was a small community and everything was destroyed. There was no sign of life as all I could see was wrecked buildings, shattered roads and long abandoned belongings. The clothing hanging on ropes were worn out, It was like life had ceased to exist here f
MARCUS P.O.V"What pack did you come from?""Did you kill your Alpha?""Where are the rest of your pack?" Flynn and Rina kept throwing questions at me. The questions were discomforting because I was also confused. Why would they ask me these questions? What were they seeing that I am not?"If you have a pack, why are you hunting alone?" Rina asked again."That's enough!" I stopped them. "I am not an Alpha and I don't have a pack." "Then why are your eyes red?" Flynn said. I furrowed my eyebrows in uncertainty and just then he threw a knife made of steel at me. I caught it then looked at my reflection. I was stunned at what I saw. My eyes were truly glowing red. I knew what this implied but I didn’t have the nerve to say so myself.I pondered deeply in case I had killed an Alpha by mistake but there was none I could remember. The only Alpha werewolf I had encountered was my father, Harold and Wayde, the leader of the wayde pack. In the two encounters, I was beaten up and I didn't at
MARCUS P.O.V“Marcus, no,” Rina said but ignoring her I ran off. While heading deep into the tunnel I put on a bracelet. Upon my arrival I saw over thirty Kanimas, they were gathered inside a large opening underground. The place was noisy and they were so busy with what they were doing that they didn’t realize my presence.I looked forward to the direction they were staring and right there I saw Stiles chained to the top of the underground. There was a cage a few meters away from where he was chained and there were a few persons held hostage inside the cage.I saw blood dripping down his bare body, his shirt was ripped off and he was in a bad shape. Tears almost dropped down my eyes when I saw how helpless he was, and I felt even worse because I didn’t know how to rescue him from them.“Marcus,” Flynn approached from behind. “We have to leave now,’ he said.“I am not going anywhere,” I replied.“I understand that you want to rescue him but you can’t do that by standing here. The longe
MARCUS P.O.VToday brought back the memories of my brothers, it made me remember Ronald and Wilfred. If they were here, they would not let me go through these troubles alone, they would have stood by me until it was all over. If my pack was with me then these so called Kanimas would have fled from my sight.I knew that my reason for leaving was worth it but that can’t satisfy the fact that I still need them now more than ever. However, it’s too late to go back, I am a lone wolf. Leaving them could make me meet some new folks and even if I don’t win the trust of anyone else, I will always be glad that I took the risk.It took several minutes before I arrived at the underground cave. I turned around making my way up the high rocks which surrounded the kanimas camp and by the time I got to the front, I saw Rina and Flynn tied two trees with the company of the kanima pack gathered before them. They were all in their human form making it easy to spot Shawn Green this time. “Traitor,” I h
ALICIA P.O.VDays passed swiftly and my womb grew faster, the pain got severe but following Helen’s instructions made it bearable. During these few days Helen told me a few about the cost and duration for having the child of a werewolf in someone’s womb.For both werewolf parents, the female werewolf was supposed to give birth after the end of three months but from her explanation, the cost of a human carrying a werewolf in the womb could go the wrong way. She said the human could die in the process and it could take even shorter than three months.I was seated alone on a long bench outside the temple. It was cool weather, the sky was moist and the wind blew softly. Luckily, I wasn’t in so much pain today like usual and that enabled me to think more straight.I remembered all my pleasant experiences with my friends during my stay outside the country. I knew that my mailbox would be full by now. I miss them so much. Even my poor father who is left in the shadows. I needed him by my sid
ALICIA P.O.V "Ahhh…" I screamed when my muscles cramped. My backbone ached terribly as I noticed a loose feeling In my joints. The pain was so severe that I couldn't take a step.Helen and Paul rushed me immediately. I didn’t know what was happening around except for the severe pain I was feeling. I felt someone lift me off the floor and just then the pain took over.The next time I realized myself, I was on the bed. I wailed out again in pain. I felt the baby in my womb but no matter how I tried to push, it would not come out.I could hear noises and chartering sounds. I wanted to speak but I couldn’t, I just could not voice the words."Alicia," The worn out voice resounded in my ears. "Alicia push," At the second sound of the voice I realized that it was Helen.I yelled aloud in pain at another attempt to push the baby out. I felt a painful contraction in my muscles again, all my attempts didn’t pay off so I gave up. I felt a hand rob softly on my belly still with the same words fo
ALICIA P.O.VEverything was dark, I didn’t know how long things would stay this way but taking my last breath didn’t seem pleasant. I knew that it was pain but at that instant I couldn’t feel it anymore. It was all blank, like I was about transiting to a different state.I couldn’t believe that this was how it would all end. Both pleasant and painful memories flashed before my face. Every time I cried, every time I messed up, every time I took the wrong steps. I saw them all. I watched it until the atmosphere changed and I found myself in a beautiful field.It was fair weather and the sky was bright. Wondering where I was I got up from the grass. I looked around and it was all endless fields. While looking around I spotted a lady who seemed my age staring from the distance. I didn’t get a clear image of what she looked like but all I needed was to talk to someone right now.“Hello,” I called but the young lady turned. As soon as she walked away I pursued after her. “Hold on,” I called
