The Meeting (2)
~SIX YEARS AGO~
“State your business here or so help me, Goddess!” Eva snarled. Her battle teeth elongated as thick fur started to replace her once smooth skin. “Hahahaha...” A cloaked figure standing in front of her laughed and slowly raised her left index finger toward her. “I've only come to pass a warning, child, for only through you will this world become what it is meant to be...” The cloaked figure said."WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ON ABOUT?" Eva scowled as a bolt of lightning struck the clouds, followed by a loud rumble of thunder.The cloaked figure laughed once more. "Those who dare to defy Fate's predetermined course. Fangs and claws will tear apart flesh from bone and soul from heart. Her path is paved with both joy and adversity. With loss and gain, through tears and smiles. And on the day she closes her eyes, death will be the end of the world."With that, the cloaked figure vanished into the darkness, leaviRelated chapters

Dark clouds floated by in the night sky, and the rays of moonlight shone over the city, giving it a mysterious ambiance.A shadowy figure, resembling a gargoyle, could be seen sitting atop a tall building.His silky raven hair billowed along with the cold wind, and his black eyes with silver rings, although seemingly emotionless, glimmered like lightning under the night hues.Rising from the cozy sofa he was crouched on, he moved toward the edge of the building and dropped down as though gravity was his starting point. *******It was early Friday morning. The wind was chilly, and birds chirping could be heard from a distance. Students wandered around aimlessly, going in different directions and murmuring about their businesses.Genova hurried towards her class holding some books in her hand and her bag hanging around her neck.

True to her word, Meredith sent the address a short time later. Genova quickly dressed up and rushed out of her room. She hurried downstairs with her bag slung over her shoulder, hurrying past the dining room where Eva and Zoe sat.“Gen! Where are you off to in such a hurry?” Eva inquired halting Genova in her tracks. “Oh forgive my manners, aunt, I almost didn’t see you there,” Genova mouthed with a weary smile. “I’m off to have dinner with a friend.” “Ooooh, a friend? Is this friend by any chance that boy you told me about?” Eva teased, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.Genova averted her gaze to hide her blush, especially from Zoe's enquiring gaze as she sipped her orange juice.“That's not it, aunt. It's just a nice lady from work named Meredith," Genova explained.Meredith? Eva’s eyes brows draw together. Why did that name ring a bell? Or was it because she had never come across anyone else with that name other than the High Queen? Though she has never met the latter, the en

“See you guys later!” Genova yelled as she got into the car which door was held open for her. “Have fun!” Eva yelled back, while Zoe just rolled her eyes and pointedly ignored Genova as they silently watched the car drive away.“You do realize that the guy your precious Gen is going out with is the Alpha and heir to the largest wolf pack in the city, right?” Zoe spoke while making their way back into the house."Does it really make a difference? Their friendship will strengthen the bond between the two packs and improve our alliance in the event of a threat."“Whatever you say, Mom.” Zoe huffed. “I wouldn’t trust that guy,” she added before storming into the house and slamming the door shut behind her. Her mother was free to continue having her delusions; it was not her problem.-----Genova sat back in Noah's pricey Mustang, enjoying the view of the city rushing by and bubbling with excitement. This was her first date with a boy. She was expecti

Eva made her way slowly to a completely isolated house in the woods. She had no choice but to park her car by the side of the road earlier because the rest of the journey would probably ruin her Ferrari. Her lips pressed together as she continued on foot through the dark forest that was much darker than she had anticipated despite the fact that it was day outside.She arrived at her destination… a small house in a dark clearing deep in the forest - after a walk that would have left her ankles begging for relief if she had been human. Anyone who didn't know where to look would have a difficult time finding the location.A clearing next to the ranch had a large pond in the middle of it. A young woman was seen standing by the pond, looking down at the water and staring at her reflection as ripples spread across the surface. She had full black hair that glowed a strange green color when the sun hit it at just the right angle.Despite the fact that she clearly heard
The Inferno's Claim Revealing (1)
The dragon-like monstrous creature thrashed its massive claws and tail all over the park, uprooting nearby buildings and structures. It annihilated anything unfortunate enough to be within its colossal strength and weight. The word ‘out of control’ couldn’t describe the mayhem it would cause if something isn’t done soon. Ashly's dragon form was gigantic. Her scales possessed a deep crimson hue and her imposing figure stood on four muscular paws. Her snout bore a striking resemblance to that of a fierce Komodo dragon, complete with a menacing set of razor-sharp fangs adorning her mouth.She was a terror-striking sight with an array of long horns and a series of formidable spikes running down her back, ranging in size from her commanding head to the tip of her tail."What the heck do we do now? Ashly's gone totally berserk!" Irene exclaimed as she stood wide-eyed beside Jasmine."I'll try to restrain her before she wreaks havoc on the city," Jasmine declared, taking a firm step forward
The Inferno's Claim Revealing (2)
Hovering amidst the crimson flames the dragon had unleashed, was a mysterious figure possessing large, golden wings reminiscent of a gigantic butterfly and a female’s graceful form. The enigmatic being flew toward the dragon with determined purpose, hovering in front of the colossal beast and gently placing one hand on the creature's snout.The scene resembled that of an angel descending from above, as seen in fantasy films. It was magnificent to behold, with the sun casting a warm glow on the figure's outstretched wings. The people below gazed up in awe as though they were witnessing a divine intervention. Well, it was to a certain degree because their asses were about to be saved."Be calm, little one!" The flames that had engulfed Ashly during her rampage returned as the soft female voice resonated. This time, however, Ashly reverted to her humanoid form stark naked and fell into a deep slumber.Jasmine exhaled a relieved breath she hadn't realize

Genova returned home, slamming the door shut behind her with a mix of frustration and anger. The front door of the house immediately pulled back to reveal Eva’s worried expression.“Honey.“ Eva rushed forward with extended arms to give her niece a comforting hug. “I heard what happened. I was so worried...” She trailed off in stupefaction when Genova brushed past her without a word and ascended the staircase. She was left standing bewildered with her arms awkwardly still stretched out."What in the world?” Eva murmured, her voice filled with shock as she watched Genova‘s retreating figure briskly disappear through the flight of stairs. Genova headed straight to her room and slammed the door behind her before collapsing onto her bed. A frustrated groan that came from deep within left her throat. She twists and turned on her bed, still shocked and overwhelmed by the bizarre turn of events that day. Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine encountering supernatural beings, let alon

~PRESENT~Images and visions of raging infernos plagued Ashly's dreams, painting vivid scenes of savage beasts locked in bloodthirsty battles, their thunderous footsteps shaking the very foundations of the earth."No... No.” Ashly's anguished murmurs filled the night air as she thrashed about in her bed, drenched in perspiration.Her eyes finally opened after what seemed like an eternity of torture, and she gasped. Her breath ragged and labored as she sat up on the bed, desperately trying to calm her frantic heartbeat by taking deep breaths. The cool air filtering through the window only helped to amplify her pain and loneliness.A solitary tear cascaded down her cheek as she finally succumbed to her sorrow. "Mom... I miss you.”Finally deciding that crying wasn’t going to change a thing, Ashly got out of bed to go in search of her brother.Dominic stood in front of a mirror in his room, meticulously getting rea
