Audrey stopped crying and laid her head on Richard's
thighs, being envious at that moment would be an
understatement but I knew better than to make a scene
from it. They were a couple before and even if Richard
doesn't really remember it all his instincts will still kick in
and I am certain that is exactly what is taking place now
with Richard playing with her ear nob, something he has
never done with me.
After relaxing, she continued, "The woman wasn't dressed
like how witches dress those days. She was extravagantly
dressed for a witch, and had this powerful, air Cracking
aura about her. She said she would help us to win the war
and end this madness of not allowing the dead remain
dead. She smooth talked everyone that day but not me, I
knew better, I know that nothing ever goes for nothing
and therefore urged Richard against taking her offer but
he didn't listen, he was stubborn as always and took the
woman's offer. Anyway, to even the scale, all she did
was bite Richard's Right arm before uttering "you are the
worthy successor." After the bite, The woman bowed and
left and up till this day, I have never set eyes on her.
Richard's behavior became even worse , rage, I mean
intense rage just sort of became his trademark. The
slightest thing will set him off, his eyes glowed
permanently then, the eyes changed colors from Gold to
Red and finally amber. He was terrifying to look at, he of
course turned all his soldiers to Werewolves including his
son, I took a stand against him turning me for I have
come to hate the man I once loved.
The day we finally opened the gates of our Kingdom, the
enemy thought we had finally given to their ultimatum and
surrendered peacefully but only for them to quake in fear
when the howl of William ringed through the valley, their
greatest nemesis was standing right in front of them. The
battle that day was the best I have ever seen.
William was the greatest General I have ever seen.
He was able to figure out his fastest wolves and kept
them in front and since he was the fastest among them
all he led the front. These wolves were less than twenty in
number and because of their speed were ordered to stay
in their human form to better utilize their speed . The next
legion were larger in size and were in full wolf form and
another legion whose task was to protect the city walls.
Those in full wolves were grouped in two and their task
was simple, one tosses a vampire while the other tears
the vampire to shreds, this was so in in order for them to
protect and watch each other's back.
William drew first blood and the rest followed, the fast
ones ripped through the undead ranks, ripping out their
heart with speed faster than light. The wolves ripped
Apart vampires who escaped from the fast ones and
everything was going to plan until William junior decided
to go against orders in a silly attempt to impress his dad.
He was actually told to remain in the palace because
William didn't want any harm to befall his only son but
William junior would have none of that and sneaked into
one of the legions and replaced one of the paired ones.
He saw the Leader of the undead and went after him
alone, being new werewolves was why William ordered
them to attack in pairs but of course he didn't know this.
Unfortunately he was no match for the undead king and
as he flew towards the king, the king moved aside and
grabbed him and smashed our son's back on the ground
with so much force severing his spinal cord badly.
Well William didn't know this until he finally met with the
vampire king and they fought, he was the easily killed by
William and the battle ended and he was on his way back
to the palace when he caught sight of a wolf who looked
exactly like his son's wolf but was already dead. He
dismissed the fact that it was his son until he recollected
that his son had a unique stripe on his fur, his son was
the only wolf with black and silver color.
William was devastated, he cried his lungs out but it was
no good. The deed was done, he had saved his kingdom
but lost his son. William never recovered and lost himself
to his rage, he sought out battles when there was none,
he killed for fun. I couldn't continue to bear all this any
more and so I sought out a solution to end this madness.
I found a way to cast out the demon from his body for a
while which will leave him vulnerable but doing that itself
will kill him because you are taking a part of him away
from him. I didn't know this of course, I just wanted my
husband back, I did the spell but when I realised what I
had done, it was too late, I didn't get my husband back, I
actually watched him die. "
ANGEL
The look on Richard's face when he heard that was
beyond description. He was so surprised and amazed to
know that his own wife killed him even if it was a
desperate attempt to get her husband back. He gently
place Audrey on the bed while he started pacing back and
forth the room. His eyes had started glowing again, he
was getting angry and I couldn't tell the exact reason
why.
"Well if you actually kill me, then how about the rest of
the wolves and why did you continue to live for centuries,
what were you hoping would happen? " Richard asked.
" When I discovered how I killed you, I was depressed for
weeks but eventually I had to come off it, someone had
to rule the kingdom but stories of wolves terrorizing the
citizens and killing some of them soon filled the lips of
everyone and soon I was sure the news will move outside
the kingdom, so I did what a ruler should, I exterminated
all of the remaining wolves using the spell I used in killing
you. " Audrey replied, but that didn't go well with Richard,
the moment he heard that word " exterminated " he
growled and made a move for Audrey but she resisted
him by stretching her left arm out, it held but not for long,
Somehow, magic doesn't seem to work or last long with
Richard. The resistance only increased his rage and when
the magic waned he moved this time with more purpose
but I came through for Audrey. I intercepted Richard's
move and we clattered into the drawer behind the bed. I
dislocated my right shoulder in the process, my word!!! ,
Richard is so strong even in human form. He was on his
way up again but I held him before screaming at him, "Get
a grip on your self Richard, control your wolf, dammit!!!
You hurt me." That got to him and he calmed down, he
came back to his self and quickly carried me to the bed.
He apologized profusely to a terrified Audrey. "How come
Magic doesn't work on you.?It doesn't make any sense.
No magic does work but not the ones that causes harm.
No wonder she chose you, the strange woman. We need
to find out the vessel she is hiding in quickly before her
next move because I can smell blood in the air. The
battle is just a few days away and I am certain she has
the battle drums already drumming. "Audrey said still
looking terrified. The way she looked at Richard spoke
volumes of how surprised she looks, and I know that
whatever the strange woman have in mind isn't good.
" I have an idea, I just think that this whole fiasco has it's
roots in the Keller family. I will place a call to Lucy and
find out if she knows something we don't. " Richard
suggested to make up for his earlier mistake.
We nodded in agreement and then he took his leave.
When he was out of the house, Audrey offered to help
reset my shoulder and while doing so she said," Please
watch over him, the darkness is still in him, I felt it when
I slept with him. He clearly loves you and you have a way
of reaching out to him. Don't make the same mistake I
made by letting the darkness go on until he was
consumed by it. The darkness has a trigger, in my time it
was the death of his son, I do not know the current one
now, it's left for you to find it. "

RICHARD
I almost attacked Audrey and even hurt Angel, my Angel.
What the hell is wrong with me. I mean why have l been
acting weird since I slept with Audrey. It seems
sometimes I am not in control. This can't continue, I
have to have to control my emotions, jeez!!! I am not a
woman for crying out loud..
I placed a call to Lucy, I got her voice mail. Anyway I
knew she was with her phone she just doesn't want to
pick. I told her to me meet at the motel in twenty minutes
and gave out the room number.
I drove to town and paid for the room at the motel. I
wore a hoodie, I had to be careful now, I am a teacher
and held in high esteem by the community, I couldn't be
seen in such a place.
I got into the the room and waited for my ex-mate, we'll
if there is anything like that.
Fifteen minutes later, I heard a knock, I opened the door
to Lucy. She was looking ravishing and was putting on a
long coat and a funny hat.
She was on All smiles like she just won a jackpot and
then there was this smell around her.. Like..... Like...
Wait!!!! That's the way her honey pot smells. Oh no, this
meeting won't go well.
She must have known I knew of her plans because she
removed her coat and before me was an unclad goddess.
"Do what you are supposed to do or no talks " she
threatened.
