Luna's Unrequited Love

The sky is going dark as the earth is losing its brightness, it looks like it is going to rain. The wind will not stop blowing dirt and the people are trying to find a place to lay low. Vivian happened to be trekking through the city to find a place to lay low because her house is a mile away from the city, so she couldn't decide to go home.

Vivian's ear is always alert and her head couldn't stop swinging itself as she walked rapidly to seek shelter. Her hair is scattered all over her head but that is the least of the things she is worried about.

The atmosphere becomes a bit darker while the sky discharges a mighty rain, thank goodness that she saw a veranda where some people from the pack are laying low from being beaten by the rain. She stayed among them and set herself to a sitting posture. They were all standing up but Vivian hates it when her feet ache. She loves sitting solely to enjoy the sound the rain makes when penetrating the earth.

Vivian placed her head on her lap while she waited for the rain to stop. My body is shivering and the cold the rain brought penetrated my body, if it were to be humans they would have worn clothes upon clothes to make their bodies healthy enough to generate a very good heat. She missed the humans since the time they migrated out of the city. "It is pathetic", she exclaimed while holding herself tightly, at least to generate a little heat before the rain stops falling.

As soon as Vivian sees the sky is clear, she stands up rapidly to head to her house but her body wouldn't allow her to stand straight as she shivers. She holds her body with two hands and bent slightly while she runs home. Many werewolves are also doing the same. She rushed home with her body almost frozen up. She looked for a good cardigan to wear.

"Oh! My bad, I forgot to check this in the morning" she silently muttered to herself. She couldn't stop scratching her itchy face as she walked towards a parcel laying on her bed. She opened it, and written on the parcel is "the secret message". Vivian wonder the hidden information the parcel is holding within. She quickly opened it and she saw it is written clearly " the coronation is today, all werewolves are to gather themselves in the open by midnight". Vivian wonder who the next queen would be after all the last queen tried her best and maintained peace within the city. She hoped she will be picked this time, she hissed and fall on the couch before she vividly remembered what happened in the past.

It was time for a coronation like this, all the werewolves were gathered and most of them believed Vivian would be the next Queen. Some of them started congratulating her but on that very night of Coronation, another werewolf was selected. This amazed the people and shocked me. She was very displeased and had to leave their midst unhappily. She hopes she will be picked this time to lead her people to ultimate success.

Vivian stretched and rolled herself on the bed to the left while she wondered what the position of authority will be like.

The weather is very cold and Michael wants to have a warm bath. He relaxed his body and entered the bathtub. The house is perfectly arranged and Michael is preparing himself to meet his bride. According to the custom of the werewolves, once a queen is chosen, he will have to take the Queen as his bride.

He stands up from the bed and walks up to the chair perfectly laid on the ground. He sits on it and leans backwards like a king. His heart is disturbed and he feels so down. Everything the werewolves are doing doesn't seem so right but the time is at hand.

All the werewolf starts gathering outside bit by bit till they all are fully present. A representative of all the werewolves steps out to speak and perform the rites as the custom demands. He walks hurriedly to their midst, "I welcome you all to this great occasion that will determine the fate of werewolves" he vocals and smiles just after the statement. The pack shouts in resolution to what he has said.

He walks out of their midst as things for rituals are being brought to the middle of the gathering. All the pack kept quiet during this period because there must be no noise. The representative of the werewolves comes back to the centre and begins to perform the ritual. The ritual took him a long period of time before he could finish.

"Today is the day of coronation" he shouts and the veins of his neck were visible. " Micheal, step forward" he ordered as he stared into the crowd waiting for Michael to come out. Micheal walks out of the pack to stand with him. He holds his hands while some drops of human blood drop on his palm.

"Vivian! Step forward" she steps forward grasping herself tight because of the cold she is still feeling. He performs the ritual on her as the crown was brought. The crown is well designed with a golden colour and some small star was on it too. After all the rituals have been done, Micheal and Vivian come close to each other to share a kiss. "It looks like both of them are shy" someone uttered.

Another person laughed indistinctly and responded to what he said: "Micheal is not shy, that's how he behaves. He is just being mindful".

Micheal stepped close to Vivian and they stared at each other for a while. Micheal couldn't stand her and was now reluctant to kiss her. Even after the rites, he didn't feel any emotions for her. Vivian feels disgusted when she sights him. She couldn't stand his touch, it was irritating. Micheal brings his mouth close to hers as she succumbs to her reality and kissed him. They kissed so passionately which made the pack believe they loved each other.

Vivian couldn't swallow the saliva in her mouth after the kiss. Micheal placed the crown on her head. She gave a laudable smile and forget about the saliva in her mouth. She swallows it as the pack bows themselves to the ground to salute the queen. The werewolves pledged their allegiance to serve and obey all her dictates.

The Queen swings her right hand to the right, the pack stands from the bowing posture. She opens her mouth to speak while the pack keeps silent.

" I am really happy to be elected and I promise not to let you down. I will serve and uphold the dictates of the pack. There would be enough food for the pack and punishment will be served to offenders", after the speech, she smiled to herself as she admires the new position she is. "The pack doesn't know what is coming" she smiled expressing her dark and wild intentions.

The pack jubilated as the celebration begins. The pack dined and wined together, while some members of the pack danced to entertain the Queen.

The Queen is highly pleased with the jubilation due to her smile. The pack brings a chair for her to sit on, Michael looked at her face strangely. Vivian couldn't understand it is a sign for her to meet with Michael quickly. Micheal stands up angrily, grabs her hand rapidly and pulls her from where she is sitting. The pack opened their mouth wide and wondered what may be wrong. Some of them picks it as disrespect and raised their brows.

The void space is dark but the moon shines its light so brightly. Vivian boils within her but she decided not to talk and acts cool. Micheal sees the rage clearly written on her face but wondered why she has not flared up.

Vivian wears a fake smile and pulls her hand from his. Michael smiled awkwardly as he used his finger to hold his nose but he withdraws it quickly and stares into her eyes. She moves herself some paces backwards from him due to how uncomfortable she feels about Michael's looks.

Micheal moves closer to her and violently uttered a terrible statement "Are you so gullible that you can't understand a little sign? I gave you all kinds of signs to make you know I want to see you but you didn't understand. Now, what I did, I know it will cause a lot of stir among the pack".

Vivian's eyes blacked out with some water gathering around her pupils, she feels so pathetic and disgusted about his behaviour. Her eye becomes so red from within and water begins to drop. Vivian raised her right hand to clean It up, and at the same time smiled laudably. She didn't utter a word even after the insult.

Micheal gets all oiled up and his anger grows to its max " Are you deaf or something?" he rants at her. Vivian stirred at him from his head to his toes, she looked up and gave a monstrous word that will drive any man to commit suicide "Are you that blind that you cannot see tonight as a day of coronation? Did your eyes not reveal to you that this period should be a moment of jubilation? I thought you are smart but you are as daft as the silver wolves that don't seem to have brains".

Micheal couldn't utter a word but have his anger grow cold, he stirred up into the sky and weighs the level of insult that was passed on him. Vivian walked out on him angrily.

The room meant for the queen is as spacious as a hall where students are being taught. Everywhere part of it is properly tidied up. Vivian walks into the room angrily but was astonished by the designs of the room. She reduces her walking speed and entered the dining room. The dining room is so beautiful and the table is properly set. She examined all that is set on the table before walking into the room to rest her hand. Vivian enters the room, she couldn't just lie on th bed. The room is perfectly ordered with lots of designs meant to be for new weds. Vivian knows she must have dinner with the Alpha as the custom demands.

Micheal is still in the void, he puts his hands on his waist while his head squares around what Vivian uttered; " she really has guts" Michael dispensed in surprise. He walked into the room and goes straight to the dining room. It is not his first time being there, it all looked normal to him. He polite himself on the chair while he waits for Vivian to step out for the banquet. After some minutes of waiting, he hits his spoon on the table as hard as he could so that It can make a laudable noise.

Vivian knows he is in but reluctantly stays indoors for some minutes to delay him. Micheal waited for some minutes and didn't see her show up, he opens the banquet and starts consuming his dinner. Micheal inhales the aroma of the food for some moments before he finally eats it.

Vivian steps out of the room and approached the dining table with her face all frowned up. Michael didn't utter a speech but concentrated on the food he is eating to avoid more insults.

After a long and silent supper, the duo goes inside to sleep so that the sky can clear up the thick darkness.

The pack were really surprised at the behaviour of the duo behaviour towards themselves. "I don't think they are getting along well", one of the pack members said. Another said; " I think the both of them haven't understand themselves". There were a lot of contentions and a lot of questions asked within the pack but they hope both of them know what they are doing.

The gathering is getting past its hours, the pack needs to leave the void. The silver wolves were ordered by the rest of the pack to clear the things in the space. The silver wolves are angry about the maltreatment but couldn't do anything other than to succumb to their dictates, they believed one day it will all be over.

Members of the pack start leaving the area bit by bit before the morning dawns, after some minutes the area has been emptied as if nothing happened there.

Things round up so fast when the earth is asleep, Micheal gets up from his bed as early as he could, he stretched himself to empty the pain within his body but he seemed not to be ok. The thought of what Vivian said keeps hunting him down. He hasn't received such a heavy insult in his life. His ego was tampered with.

Vivian is still resting her head but was about to wake up. She rolled herself on the bed for quite some time and opened her eyes. Her eyes seem so long due to the stress she passed through overnight. She stands up from the bed gently and walks to the bathroom to have her body cleaned appropriately.

Micheal's face couldn't relax itself but got so harsh that it becomes visible. "I can't imagine myself with that wench indoors for a whole week" he muttered angrily and hits the bed as hard as he could. He knows both of them will have to stay indoors for one week before they are allowed to commence their duty. He boils from within but relaxed back to his bed.

Vivian comes in from the bathroom and sets herself on the bed to relax her body. Micheal knew her intentions and would love to make her pay for the insult she passed to him at midnight. He leaves her to rest till she dosed off.

Micheal mockingly laughed, he stands up from the bed, stretched his body and headed directly to the bathroom. He smiled all along when he fetched a bucket of water. He knows Vivian is going to love the surprise he is about to dish her.

He carried the bucket of water with his face frowning and the anger within him boils. He couldn't control his urge of getting revenge. He walks up to her in the bedroom and poured the water on her face.

Vivian couldn't get hold of what is happening to her she rapidly gets up from her sleeping posture with anger. Her nails shoot out in defence to fight her enemy, her eyes become red while her pupils reduced a bit in size like that of the cat. She stands erect, ready to fight her way out.

Micheal wasn't expecting this kind of reaction but was happy he will get to deal with her. He gives room to the rage within him and his nails shoot out. His teeth couldn't stay in their position but protruded like the vampires. His eyes become so red.

Vivian angrily pushed him to the wall of the room.

The atmosphere is tense and the room is so hot. Two fierce-looking monsters are within devouring one another. Vivian's rage couldn't be controlled, she pushed him to the wall and pinned him fiercely with her long nails. Micheal rescinded her and thrived his nails on her shoulder. Vivian gives a painful shout and withdraws backwards, she strikes his face with her nails which gave a deep cut that gets Michael really mad.

Vivian edged him with her shoulders and used her legs to hit his generation. Micheal groans in severe pain and gave Vivian a heavy punch that makes her fall to the ground.

"You've got some wings hun," he said in anger as he walks towards her and pulled her leg. He dragged her to the centre of the bedroom and punched her face. Vivian gave a painful shout and dragged herself out of his claws. The punch continues to come until Vivian gets hyper-sonically hard and the anger within her shoots to the apex. With the last strength she had, her tooth grows with great tenacity, and her eyes become more than red, it looks more like blood. The sexy beautiful queen looks more like a monster.

Micheal stepped a bit backwards, but before he could have a clear sight of what is happening, Vivian bite him terribly on his neck region. Micheal groans so loud that people heard and came in to help.

The hand of Vivian drips with blood as the people rushed in to help with the crisis. "I thought they did be enjoying themselves, but obviously it looks like two monsters are trying to devour one another", one of the rescues said while they rushed Michael to a nearby hospital. Vivian was left in the room, she tries catching her breath but couldn't and collapsed in the room.

Michael landed in the hospital solely wounded, the doctor was forced to ask " which terrible fight is he engaged in and who is the enemy clan?". The rescue couldn't give an answer but said "we saw him on the ground lying lifeless and his wife stood over him wounded". The doctor was surprised and immediately asked " did they have a fight?". "Yes, something like that", one of the rescues answered politely.

Micheal is rushed into the emergency room as the doctor wants to take his leave to attend to him. " where is the wife" he asked in haste. "She is in the room", one of the rescues said. " wait, she is still in the room?" another rescue gave his voice. They were disappointed in themselves and quickly rushed to Micheal's residence.

They pushed the door of the bedroom rapidly and found Vivian lying lifeless on the floor. "Oh!" A rescue muttered in disappointment. They rushed her to the hospital for her to be treated.

Liverpool city is boiling with rage when the news of the incident spread. The pack gets fumed about it and discussed it among themselves throughout the whole city. Some people organized a small gathering to tell the incident as a story to earn some money.

Daniel sits quietly on the open corridor, his head dangled and his eye seems bored out. He is not very concerned about what is happening within the city. Although Daniel is honoured among the pack because of his loyalty to anyone he is close to. His facial look is tough but he is soft within and knows how to do things in accordance with time. Even though he is popularly known, he always goes begging for food because he couldn't feed himself.

The way Daniel looks is that of a hungry fellow that is looking for something raw to devour, he had not eaten for so many days and he hopes he finds something to cool his hot hunger. He stands up from where he is sitting and walks sluggishly to where some members of the pack were gathered.

"I blame the queen for what happened to her, it just annoys me that she bites the Alpha so hard. She is terrible", Daniel heard this audibly and felt bad for the lady "Women are always the ones at the losing end. Who knows what could have happened that resulted in that?" He thoughtfully posits within himself as he walks through the crowd sluggishly. His belly is all flat and it could be seen that he has not eaten for days. Another gathering of some members of the pack is seen not quite long, after the first gathering "the Alpha is so shameless, how can he lay his hands on the Queen. He deserves to be put to death", he proudly said with his face all widened out. " what do you mean? The woman is to be blamed. The Alpha can't start beating her for no reason. I believe she must have been the one that edged him to the wall and left him no other choice", another person from the pack points out his opinion.

Daniel heard so many things they said while he walked through their midst like a sick dwarf. He got to a point where he could no longer walk but sit quietly to retain the little strength within his body. He bends his head and falls on his back to rest for a few minutes.

"Take" a woman from the silver pack points a food at him. Without Daniel asking questions, he grabbed what she is giving quickly and completely consumed what was stretched within a twinkle of an eye.

She sits beside him and looked at him where he lay "You must be really hungry", she brings more food out of her purse and give it to him. Daniel reached out for it and stands up from his lying posture. He quickly consumed all the foods given to him within some minutes. Daniel's face becomes a bit better and his flattened stomach becomes a little bit protruded. He stared at the woman's face but she stands up from where she is sitting and headed back quickly to where she come from before Daniel could utter a word.

Daniel opened his mouth wide to call but withheld his call when she had already walked some miles away from him. Daniel gives his body some factual rest before rising from where he took a little nap since he had regained a little of his strength. He looks so tired but can now walk well. He wonders who this lovely silver girl may be. Since he couldn't use any useful information to find her, after so many thoughts, he decides to let it slide and quickly decided to take a walk to the hospital so that he can see things for himself. Daniel would have taken this step previously but hunger rendered him useless which makes him unresolved.

The hospital is silent like that of a mutuary. No one dares to utter a word because of the presence of the Alpha and the Queen. The Alpha looks terribly sick due to the wound on his neck. His body is so weak at that moment but he can still perform a little hand-swinging task.

The queen looks so terribly punctured and affected but her inner strength can't be overlooked. The doctor is sitting perfectly in his office but makes sure the nurse keeps records of whatsoever is happening to the duo.

Daniel walks into the hospital looking so unkempt. The nurses stopped him from entering the hospital because they are insinuating him to be a madman. Daniel tries all his best to get into the hospital but all his efforts later turned out to be a waste.

He walked out of the hospital corridor sobered and drags his feet along. " excuse me ma!" Daniel politely uttered the statement to a nurse that had gone out to dispose some of the trash.

The nurse stopped, looked at him from head to toe and laugh at his look. Daniel cuts in "I may look unkept but I am bothered about something, especially the news going around the city", his face is vehemently wandering around her body waiting for an answer to be provided. The nurse couldn't help it but laugh the more. Daniel gets angry and bittered, his human look is completely eaten up as he transforms into a Wolf. The wolf looked out of stage and untamed.

The nurse stepped back in fear while the wolf roars in anger and stepped some paces toward her. The nurse moves backwards, still, the wolf keeps coming till she falls to the ground. Her body is shaking and her mouth couldn't control itself while her voice stands erect. She shouts for help but the wolf keeps stepping close to her. The other nurses come out of their domain but couldn't turn into a wolf to fight him because the ethics of duty of the nurses forbids it.

The wolf's eye is fierce to behold, he moves with rage to give a damaging attack. All the nurses opened their mouths wide. The nurse bent her head in fear waiting for the wolf to pounce on her.
