eep it a secret. But for how long would they keep this secret? He pondered. Aztec hut was far away from the rest of the parks’ as he had made it to keep his secret of him marrying a human hidden lest he be punished to death by the Ruling council. While the family was eating, a group of werewolves led by Ragner encamped their abode calling Aztec two step outside. Hearing this Helena went with Aztec shutting the door on their kids preventing them from coming outside. Leo ran to the window followed by his sister Lisa as they both peeped out the window. Looking outside the window they saw Ragner and heard him say he would not his secret be exposed so he has to kill Aztec and his wife but he

ged their shape from a wolf into a human- two little kids. He has heard of the Werewolves myth but this was too good to be true. He stood stunned and looked at the two kids as they in turn stared at him. He definitely cannot kill them; they are just kids. They in turn whispered to each other- “we cannot attack him, we are just fourteen. Let us ask him for help. “Please we need your help, our parents were killed today and those that killed them are after us”, Leo called out.

referred to Astoria. The Pack was dividing and Ragner’s camp was increasing. In order for it not be discovered that he killed Astoria’s family, he had to tell his supporters to pretend as he in turn wanted to lest he be caught and his chances of being the Alpha is blown.

There are a lot of harmful objects; I am not used to having any one around”, he said. “Over here let me help you with the bruise” he said further. When she got to him, he raised her dress to help her with the injury only to find a birthmark on her arm. Being surprised he called Leo and checked his arm a

asked. Ragner told her he was worried about how he would have to kill Astoria without linking suspicions to himself. Hearing this she said: “You know for a while now I have told you that the best way to achieve your aim is to do it without hiding”. She further explained that the best way to kill Astoria and not arouse suspicion was to kill Astoria and all the co

iscover that Ragner had planned to take Astoria’s life on her eighteenth birthday which was to be the next day. They further explained that it was not their plan to just kill Ragner to take their revenge- even though it was very obvious that Leo wanted to take revenge on Ragner because he hated him so much, but that they had to protect the true Alpha to prevent the Silver crimson pack from ruled by an Impostor who has always been disguised a good person. Adolph stared at them as they went on explaining. He thought within him “This kids are saying the truth and want to do the right thing”. He didn’t want to be a hindrance but at the same time he cannot let two kids both aged Nineteen to fight against this fearsome

ither of them were chosen by the ancestors. Then came in Rager saying “Enough of this madness! She is not destined to be the Alpha or Luna or whatever it is you chose to call her”. “I should be the Alpha, I was the eldest son of my Father and yet I was not chosen and yet again you all choose to deny me the chance of being the Alpha '', he added. While he was saying this, one of the council members performing the rites discovered that there was one boy left with the mark on the wrists. His name was Tanner but he had run away with his mother long ago when he was still a child and was considered an outcast because he was a half wolf after his Father married a human. His father was ki

Sobbing Astoria departed running whilst hearing the voice of Naomi after the wolves had gotten her and attacked her. She could hear Naomi saying: “Run, Run Astoria, run as fast as you can and do not look back, Run my mighty Alpha”. Astoria ran all she could and while running she heard the voice of Naomi being beaten to death but she kept on running. She has to, she just has to run away for her to come back and take revenge on her uncle. “For dad, for mum, Randolph, for Jacob, for Naomi” she said as she cried. Only to be caught along the way by Griffin, Jasper, Hugo and two other of Ragner’s servants. They surrounded her and Griffin said ``Little Alpha we are sorry it has to come to this but you have to die for our master to rule”, “But don’t worry it will be a quick death” Jasper a

They explained that they killed her and left what was left of her for the animals to feed on. Hearing this stunned Leo, Lisa and their uncle Adolph. “Yes! Now I am the Alpha and my rites are going to be done tonight” said a fulfilled Ragner who continued “Whoever stands against me shall be put to death”. “You are either Ragner’s pack or you are an

“One more thing baby”. Casey was lost. Showing signs of surprise she asked. “And what is that?” Kate replied “Your father and I got you a car”, she said, swinging the car key in the air. OMG! She said as she hugged her parents. She was so happy that she took the car key and wanted to drive the car. She ran outside and she was surprised to see the beautiful car that her Dad and mum had gotten for her. She took the key and started the car and wanted to go for a ride. “Have fun but don’t stay out late”, her mother called, smiling. She drove the car outside their premises
