It was nightfall, everyone was probably asleep. The night was full of darkness, even the light from the lightning didn't help much because it created fears in people's hearts. Nights like these were not one of those comfortable nights, because it was raining cats and dogs. The harsh wind causes the trees to slap against each other. The rumbling of the thunder shook the grounds of the castle. Ingrid felt cold, so she decided to close the windows. She found it hard to close them;so she tried pulling from below when her fingers were slightly pierced… she quickly withdrew her hand, and a drop of blood dropped on the floor. She licked her finger.Pharrell was wide awake, but was in agony. His body was sweating profusely. He failed to keep in check as he fisted the sheets. He was having a fit which no one but his grandma, Marah and Philip would know about. He wanted something to quench his thirst, not with water though…with something metallic and red. He was thirsty for blood."Uurgh!" He

Nothing was as amusing as having to set the rules and being in charge. Ingrid had made the announcement to all women in the werewolf world. At first she was scared out of her wits, but with Paula and Charmaine besides her she was strong willed."My fellow people, I called you here because of something that I wanted to discuss something with you" she started saying, getting their attention."I thought, instead of just lazing around and waiting for our mates, we should indulge ourselves in useful activities… such as fighting" there were murmurs around the crowd. The women looked at each other, narrowing their eyes at the new Luna."I don't think that's going to work my queen, because the rules were set and we have to abide by them" one of the women chimed in. If the rules were set, there was no way they'd break them."My dear, rules are meant to be broken. If we keep hiding behind our mates' petticoats, then we'd never know how to fight for ourselves… Do you think the enemy will wait fo

"My Lord, I last saw him on the training grounds," Brutus said, lowering his head. Being in the King's presence was something that he didn't wish to spend a lot of time on. His presence was overpowering."Find him and tell him to help you. I'll be there soon" he said, standing up from his chair."Yes, my Lord" he bowed and left from there. He sighed in relief, but that was just for a minute when he nearly bumped into Ingrid."My queen, you scared me!" He clutched his chest."Sorry. I didn't mean to. Why do you look flushed?" Ingrid narrowed her eyes."Ahh! Nothing, my queen. It must've been the sun" he touched his face dramatically."Brutus, if it were the sun, it'd have been flushed too. So tell me what is the matter?" Ingrid asked with her hands on her hips."Actually my queen, the King, isn't doing so well. The people are protesting at the mine. They are…""Don't you have anything to do besides running your mouth?" Pharrell's cold voice echoed behind them."My Lord, he was just…" I

It was not so hot. The weather was cool and the sky was dotted with some black clouds. But was it normal for Ingrid to feel so hot. She stepped out of the shower and wrapped her body with a towel.She sat in front of the mirror, but she saw her face; it was red and glowing. But the heat on her body never dissipated…She was down moisturising her body. She settled for a black tracksuit, black training shoes and a black hoodie…My body felt weak, but I couldn't stand being hooked up in the room all day long. I had to do something, so I prepared to go to the training grounds.Whatever that happened two days ago came as blurry images. I couldn't even remember what happened and how I got out of there."If it isn't for the hired luna" I jerked back to my thoughts when I heard someone scoffing. I didn't have to turn to know who that is…"Aunt Amanda it's so good to see you" I faked a smile. She was just like some black spirit, wafting around to weaken my presence."And it's not good to see

I was still reeling from the fact that the king decided to take refuge in me. Something in my chest rose as I felt somehow proud.It wasn't every time anyone got to tame the ruthless king.I rose early in the morning when the birds were busy chirping. Their sound was rather melodious unlike most of the time. It was such a beautiful day. I hummed as I made my way to the balcony. The view was more intoxicating, as the mist escaped from the forest. I watched from afar as the other pack members exchanged their shifts. After taking the breathtaking view, I decided to take a quick shower and head downstairs.I settled for a long black frock with french laces on the shoulders. I was very sure that I felt beautiful, I could feel it too. My skin was glowing for some reason."That'd be perfect" I said when I was done tying my hair in a neat bun. I kissed my daughter's forehead and went downstairs. The sound of my shoes echoed in the empty castle, I guess everyone was still sleeping. But, that
