"Kill him! He is dangerous, shows no mercy." A roar of loathing consumed the mountains at the instruction, as they charged towards the man approaching at top speed on a motorbike - Ecosse Spirit ES1. He was covered with a helmet but long jet black hair protruded down his neck, making me wonder if it was a woman. Nonetheless, his appearance made it impossible for it to be a woman. His tank top left his big strong muscles exposed.
I held my chest in panic, as I watched like a hawk in shock at the horror before me. Hundreds of vampires raced to him, sneering with angry growls. He halted with a stunt, his motorbike circled in its spot, generating a whirlwind of dust that created a fog around him. He ducked as countless vampires lunged at him, causing them to fall on their faces.
The sound of their growl echoed through the mountain. The man pulled off his helmet, using it to defend in a circular motion, instantly breaking the head of many vampires simultaneously. Blood gushed out, soaked the ground with the similarity of water gushing through a pipe. I kept myself hidden behind the trees, making sure that I wasn't seen.
Hordes of mages joined the attack. They seemed to be united against a common enemy. The man took to his heels, his face covered with his long black hair, his physical features undeniably tough.
A vampire lunged at him. His speed increased, just before he turned into a beast. No, a werewolf. He was taller, bigger, and stronger than anything I've ever seen. Charcoal Black fur covered him with tick claws. He tore the throat of five vampires together. Fear dribbled around me as the man continued his defence around the creatures surrounding him. He was fiercer than before, and one by one, the creatures fell before him. With a growl, he thrust into the chest of the last creature. A mage.
Terror stroke as I watch him rip out the heart of the Mage. Instantly, he changed to human form, behind some trees. His big muscled shoulders were exposed. His lower body was hidden behind a tree. He used his bloody hand to push the strands of hair from his face, revealing a pair of dark glowing red eyes, focused on me.
A shiver ran through me as I took to my heels, stumbling and falling on my face, thanking the dry leaves for cushioning me against the hard floor. Slow steady steps halted behind me and I held my breath, pretending to be dead. A big strong hand pressed the back of my neck, a shrill tore through my throat.
"Isa, wake up. Isa," Cassandra's voice pulled me out of my nightmare making me quiver in anxiety, I hugged my body. Cassandra was sitting beside me with a wet towel in her hand wiping the sweat that surfaced on my face. Her touch was soothing, it made me relax.
"My child, you have been screaming in your sleep," Cassandra's voice was filled with worry and concern. She has been my nanny for the past sixteen years. Incoherently, I would have called her Mum if not for the warning of my father, the Mage King.
"It's the same nightmare but this time, it was so real. I almost died, Cassandra." My heart whacked with every word. The same nightmare troubled me every night.
"Not in the name of the moon goddess will you die." As soon as the words left her tongue, she covered her mouth with her palm. "Tell me you didn't hear that," she said with a guilty look.
"Fortunately, I did. Who is the moon goddess?" I asked. The topic piqued my interest. So much has been hidden from me. I grew up in this castle under the watch and training of my father, the Mage King with strict rules. I am never allowed to step out of here.
"Don't be silly, my child, there is nothing like that. It's just a myth and this nightmare you've been having. Is it the same person you see all the time?"
"Yes. Jet black hair, strong jaws, except his eyes were glowy. They aren't just read as usual but dark glowing red. He looks quite beautiful in human form." I could feel blood climbing my cheeks with the description of him. How can a man be attractive yet fearful? This is just another stupid nightmare.
I noticed Cassandra stiffen at the description. She smiled but I could see it was forced. "You are so silly, my child. A man can't be described as beautiful."
She paused and stared at the door as if making sure no one was eavesdropping.
"It isn't just nightmares you've been having. Everything you described is about the war. The man in question is Alpha Jade, the Alpha of the Moon Star Pack. I have a feeling the Mages will lose just like the other packs and vampires. Alpha Jade is a walking killer machine." She stopped when she heard footsteps approaching. "Let me get you ready. Your father is coming over to see you."
I jerked out of bed at the knowledge so abruptly, I almost tripped over. I wanted to ask more questions as the information stilled my insides, aggravating my fears. My father never comes to me. It's always the other way round. Somehow, I don't feel comfortable about it.
"Why?" I asked, just as Cassandra undressed me and led me to the large bathtub. A maid walked in to whisper something to Cassandra. Turning to me, she bowed her head slightly and left.
