"My other favorite days? Hmmm, let me think about that...the day you were born; the exact moment I carried you in my arms for the first time, the day you said, mama, the first time you called me aunt, the day your first tooth came out, the day you walked for the first time, your birthdays...do you need more?" Amelia replied with a smile.
"Why is it all about me? Are you just telling me what you think I want to hear?" Hunter asked narrowing his eyes at her.
"Of course it should be all about you! You are my precious little baby after all. I don't like it that you are growing, I would prefer if you remained little for a longer while," Amelia replied.
"I would prefer that too, I can't believe that a baby of yesterday is now taller than I am," Shirley added.
"You both should stop calling me that. Like aunt Amelia rightly said, I am growing so I am no longer a baby," Hunter replied.
"Until you defeat me in a duel, I will continue calling yo
"I don't know all about it yet but I think Hunter have some kind of power or something. I didn't want to mention this before until I find out more, but since we are at the topic, I will tell you the little I know," Shirley said."I don't understand the kind of power you mean, is it magical power or something?" Amelia asked in confusion."I can't answer that for now, but I wouldn't doubt it if he has a little magical powers in him," Shirley replied."Magical powers? I find that hard to believe, How is that possible?" Amelia said."You remember when we first saw Hunter in a half-wolf state when he was three? And we concluded that it was a onetime thing? It's not, he has the ability to shift that way anytime he likes he just haven't been doing it because of how shocked we looked that day. I think there is more to him than he is showing us, that is why I really need to find out more about h
THREE WEEKS LATER (INFERNO DA LUCIANO)The past three weeks have been pretty simple aside the stress of training, we all followed a particular routine, wake up very early, have a light breakfast, train for four hours; that is from six to ten, then go on our separate ways and then gather again around five in the evening when we train for another two hours.As for the whole Amelia not liking fighting thing, we found out that she has actually been enjoying the whole training stuffs, she even wakes up before them most morning in order to get a head start, she trained harder than everyone else in order to make up for all the years she spent slacking behind.When Shirley asked her why she was putting in so much effort, she said that she has been putting in her best efforts because she didn't want anyone to worry about her safety on the battlefield instead of fighting their enemies. How thoughtful of her. The first one week of training was very hard on her, it was evid
" I am...I am not excluding you guys from the fight, in fact I am grateful that you guys decided to help out even after what happened all those years, all I am saying is that you guys should not follow us back to our old pack, it would look very suspicious if you do. Only members of our old pack and some warrior wolves from here who are not known should come with us," Shirley said."I understand where you are coming but still.. what if.." Ace said."If you truly understand then you would see how suspicious it is for the alpha and beta of a prestigious pack to be residing in another pack. That fact wouldn't sit well with anyone and it would look suspicious to even the dumbest of all. We can't afford to raise any suspicion of any sort, because if they find out about our plans before we execute It, all our chances to save Zane and Robert will go into thin air, and our safety will no longer be guaranteed," Shirley said."I agree with her," Amelia said
"Fine, I will give in to your demands. We are leaving now," Davina said, and within an instant, her body went limp and her head rolled to the back. She started chanting something as her eyes turned white and black. The words she was chanting were in a language that none of them understood. Immediately, they all saw a whiteness envelop them, then Davina's head fell back to its normal position. She turned to Darren and gave him a tight smile. "Time to go now, love," she said to him, and immediately a portal began to shimmer behind them. The rogues that surrounded them began to push them all through the portal, and when they had successfully pushed the forty of them through the portal, they also began to enter. When the last one entered the portal, the shimmer enveloped the entire clearing, and just like that, they went into thin air.
Hunter stiffened as the words the witch spoke yesterday ran through his mind. He has been awake for a while now and all his efforts to wake the rest of them up proved abortive, even his mom was yet to wake. His heart was beating erratically in his chest, threatening to burst out anytime from his chest due to the unparalleled fear that was coursing through his veins as he heard sounds of approaching footsteps. With his head bowed low and his eyes clutched shut tightly, Hunter felt his knees tremble from the heavy and tense atmosphere in the room as the sound of the footsteps got closer."I have told you already, I will wake them up with magic if they are yet to be awake, but I must warn you, it might have adverse effect on their minds," Davina said."How much effect are we talking about here?" Darren asked."They might start seeing or hearing things that are not there, some might even go completely gaga because their body wouldn't be able to contain

As soon as the two monsters left the room, Shirley released a breathe she didn't know she was holding. She could breath more peacefully now and as much as she was happy that they had left, every part in her was dreading when next they will visit. If they could do something so awful immediately they woke up from their magic-induced sleep, she feared what they would do when next they come around."Hey Hunter! How are you doing?" Shirley said in a low voice.Hunter shot his head up to look at his mom, then he smiled and said to her, "um...yeah, I am okay mom, you don't have to worry about me, how are you? Still feeling sleepy?"Shirley smiled down at him and said in a sad voice, "I am okay, I am just worried about you son. I am sorry for putting you through this my child, you weren't supposed to have been forced to watch that, you aren't even supposed to be here in the first place, parents are meant to protect their children and not the other way around."Hu
A bang on the door jolted them all from their thoughts and they looked to see a hand push in several trays of food through the section of the door. It didn't take long before the smell of warm food hit their nostrils.Hunter's mouth felt dry and he looked at his mom to confirm if they were going to eat the food or not, and when she nodded, he undid his cuffs and stood up wearily from the floor to go bring the food closer. His knees groaned in protest but he made his way to the latch several times and retrieved the food trays and water."How are you able to get out of this sliver cuff? Didn't it burn you?" Shirley asked when she saw Hunter without his cuffs.Hunter shrugged and said, "I stared at it intently and asked it to open and it did. But I tried opening everyone else's own but it didn't work.""It's okay, it is nothing to be sad about," Shirley replied when she saw his face fall.When he was done bringing the food closer, all except Shirley w
