I looked behind me. No one was there. I looked back at him, he was already going. “Hey, wait,” I hurried after him “What demon are you talking about?” I queried curiously.“Come with me,” he said. I followed him down to his room. He sat on a mat in front of what seemed like a temple. I sat on a small wooden chair in front of him.“A demon, I see a demon,” he repeated his words. My heart thumbs up. I have heard a lot about demons; manipulative, destructive, and heartless being from the pit of hell. Zeta Irene told us lots of stories about them, but she said they no longer exist on Earth so, what demon was Epsilon Cadman talking about? “A demon after what pleases him. A demon of pain and sorrow. No demon has ever dared to enter Newmoon pack under my watch, Lucian, but this demon broke out of the sacred circle and achieved his aim before leaving,” Epsilon Cadman explained.“What are you talking about, Mr. Cadman?” I queried curiously.“He came to vis

Ian froze wide-eyed. Russell looked at me. He lifted his hand to manipulate him. I held back his hand.“What are you doing? He is my cousin, don’t hurt him,” I begged.“I’m leaving, sort him out,” Russell said, pecked me on the forehead, and disappeared. How he disappeared shook Ian off balance.“Come on, Ian!” I said, standing up and taking a step toward him. “Why are you so shocked?” I asked. He blinked severally and rubbed his eyes to make sure he saw right.“Who the hell was that, Muriel? Who is he? Don’t even try to tell me you are cheating on the Alpha with that man. Do you think he is normal? Have you ever seen a man as good-looking as him before? Don’t you think something must be fishy with him? What has come over you, Muriel? You are losing it, aren’t you?” Ian quizzed in a jabber that got me staring at him, confused. “Now don’t look at me with those uncommon eyes of yours,” he warned, pointing a finger at me and squinting his eyes w

Grace ran down to her father’s room. She was the Beta’s last child and Autumn was the Beta’s second child, the one that took after her father. While the last child was a fraidy-cat, the first child was a hothead, she listened to no one and did whatever she pleased. She got married to her mate and moved away from Bluemoon pack. Autumn was trained by the Gamma to be a warrior when she turned 10 years old. When she turned 18, she never cared to find her mate, she always hated the thought of finding her mate and getting married, which would automatically stop her from fighting. “What’s the problem, Grace?” Beta Neil, who was behind his desk, holding a document asked, standing up. Grace sprinted to him, hiding behind him. “What is it, who’s after you?”“Fa… Father, it’s Autumn,” she fearfully pointed to the door.“What about her? Did she get into trouble again?” Beta Neil asked, holding Grace from his back to his front.“No, Father, she… she saw a…”“She saw a what?”“She saw a demon!” Gr

(Back to Muriel’s room)~Muriel~I froze on my spot, and chills of reality traveled down my spine. Russell had come to see me in Newmoon pack, and a powerful Epsilon lives there, he saw him, exposing my deep secret. “I wouldn’t have believed him, Muriel,” Lucian spoke out. “When I saw how uncomfortable you were on that day, I knew something was wrong. The Muriel I know doesn’t possess the courage to talk back at anyone. But when you went missing on your eighteenth birthday and returned, everything changed. Putting together all your actions, I had to believe Epsilon Cadman’s words. But it’s not your fault, I know how demons work, he must have been manipulating you, and I, Lucian Logan will set you free from that spell,” Lucian declared. I looked at Russell, the angry looks in his eyes weren’t quelled. His fists were clenched, and I could hear the sound of his fast heartbeat, drumming in my ears. I bet if he wasn’t unable to use his powers right now, Lucian

~Muriel~I reached the dungeon. All the guards were down unconscious. I halted in surprise. I looked around the dungeon, it was as quiet as a graveyard. Behind all the barriers lay sleeping prisoners and along all sections lay sleeping guards. I wonder what had happened. I peered through the dungeon till I beheld a terrible sight that got me shrinking away. I covered my mouth to prevent a scream from escaping my lips. On the floor in the dungeon lay heavy silver chains that seemed to light the eerie darkness wrapping the dungeon. I moved closer to the barrier, hoping to see Russell. No one was there.“Russell?” I called out. My voice penetrated the darkness and it hit back to me. “Russell!” I screamed out.“Hey!” Lucian rushed in with three scouts. “Where is he?” he queried. I gnashed my teeth; turning to face him, I tugged at his shirt, pinning it to his throat.“What did you do to Russell, Lucian? If I get to know you harm him, I will kill you!”
