Star lifted her weight off the girl giving her enough room to scramble away onto her back, “Luna Star?” Cybel’s eyes widened and her mouth opened and closed, she looked horrified.“What are you doing here, Cybel?” Star was starting to anger.“I am sorry Luna, I didn’t know this was your place, I was brought here by someone, I swear!” She fumbled for an answer and flinched at the way she sounded even to herself, now the Luna would definitely throw her in prison for trespassing.“What do you mean brought here, by who?” Star’s eyes narrowed dangerously.“I don’t know, he wears a hood and only comes in the dark. He did someth
Will’s eyes cracked open, the room around him was too bright to focus, but the sweet scent coming from somewhere in the room caused him to strain his eyes. He couldn’t figure out what it was.“Did someone bring doughnuts and coffee?” Will mumbled and a few chuckles were heard around the room.“Trust my son to ask about donuts and coffee before his eyes are even fully open.” Star rolled her eyes.When he was finally able to focus fully on the room his eyes landed on his parents to his left and to his right was the source of the sweet smell and Will shot up in bed.“Will, be careful.” Will groaned, holding a hand to his bandaged left side, and breathed
“Mom, how do you know this guy?” Will questioned when a handsome guy looking to be in his mid-thirties stepped off the truck. Max was standing beside her with his arms crossed over his chest looking every bit intimidating and completely annoyed with the type of men his woman was acquainted with.“Oh honey, he’s a Cybersecurity Engineer. Ash developed the entire cybersecurity package for the pack and its entities.” Star smiled charmingly and stepped forward to greet him with a hug.“Welcome to the Lockwood pack, Ash.” The grin never left his face.“The pleasure is all mine, Star. I must say I was surprised to hear from you, but you know I can’t say no to you.” Star clapped gleefully and turned to th
William, Cybel, Star, and Maximus descended the stairs of the plane when they landed in Manchester.The chilly air prickled Cybel’s skin, but the surreality of being on another continent won over the discomfort as excitement zipped through her. She wasn’t entirely sure why they suddenly took the trip across the ocean, but she wasn’t complaining, she’d always wanted to travel the world even if this wasn’t quite how she imagined it.“Are you cold?” Will shuffled closer to her itching to drape his arm around her the way his father did to his mother.“A little.” She smiled up at him with reddened cheeks and Will’s hesitation dissolved, pulling her against his side, he couldn’t help but notice how
Cybel frowned deeply at the look on Will’s face, his parents were seated on a couch across from her while he paced from end to end of the private drawing-room.“Is… everything okay?” her eyebrows knitted together as she peaked at the Alpha and Luna, they seemed bothered by something, Will more so than anyone else.“I promised I’d tell you why we are here so here goes.” Will pinned her under his fierce gaze. “The hunter attack of a few days ago wasn’t a random attack, I was the target and we came here to figure out why it is they wanted me specifically. Years ago a prophecy was interpreted that a hunter and a werewolf were to have a child which will result in the order of the world being reset. I am that child.” Max and Star stared at their son with equally surpr
Will shivered, suddenly becoming aware of the icy floor beneath him. Cracking his eyes open, Will noticed the bars beside him, the cell was empty apart from an empty bowl that looked more fit to be a dog bowl than anything else, beyond the bars was another set of steel barricades that didn’t appear to be housing anyone. “Hello? Is anyone there?” He called, feeling more like a college girl in a horror movie than a prisoner. “Save your energy, they’re not coming for you pretty boy.” The girl deadpanned, sarcasm dripping from her voice like venom. “Who are you?” Will inquired, easily ignoring her tone. “A prisoner, duh.” She wasn’t the friendliest person he’s met, but he was glad he wasn’t alone. “Way to state the obvious. I can guess why I’m here, what about you?” he gave up on trying to get her name. “I pissed someone off.” She supplied, much to his surprise. “I’m Will.” He offered and just when he thought she wasn’t going to answer, she spoke. “Kiah.” Will smiled to himself. “
His captors had heard of the brute strength the boy possessed, but huddled in the corner of his cell with his mouth hanging open Will hardly looked like a threat.Three men watched in awe as the werewolf slept peacefully, even after the loud creaking of the door sounded, he was still out for the count, perhaps the dose of sedatives they gave him was too strong for him.Deciding that he wasn’t waking up, the biggest guy of the lot scoffed and unlocked his cell, while he was asleep they could move him. Gripping his arms, a pair lugged his heavy body from the cell and shut it behind them, but before they could reach the door they were thrown to the ground, and before either could recover Will had the third guy’s throat in his hands.All mercy left
On the third day Will finally relented and allowed them to wander into a human village, from the looks of it it was a tiny farming village that didn’t see much tourism, but the people seemed friendly enough despite the crazy looks they gave them. “Hi, do you know where we can find a phone booth? We were out camping and we go robbed of all our belongings we’re just trying to get hold of our family.” Kiah approached an older lady who looked concerned by their appearance as they walked through town. Will’s half-torn sweatpants were especially out of place in the icy weather and the old lady’s eyes widened. “Oh my honey, come o inside, you both must be freezing.” She ushered them into the shop and quickly reached for a shawl to place around their shoulders.
