A Twist in Time


"For the first time in decades we gather under one roof. A newly formed one might I add," Liam pauses as a few people chuckle. He glances around the room. All these faces. New and old. Familiar and unknown.

"I am here to propose something new. We all as a werewolf community are all over the place. No direct rule. No kind of understanding. I stand here today in an attempt to unite us all as one," people begin whispering.

What was he talking about?

Mateo walked up the first flight of stairs to meet up with his Alpha. In his hand he had individual envelops. He handed them to Liam who took them with a nod.

"Here I have signed treaties from every pack in attendance today, and some. A signed agreement of peace though this transition," he paused and held up the envelopes.

Everyone starred.

"Today I proclaim myself as King."

Everyone gasped. What? King? Were their alphas aware of this?

Mateo was the first to bow getting down on his knees. Simultaneously Liam's pack began to bow also getting on their knees. As the alpha's bowed in recognition soon the pack members followed in suit.

"Starting today we all follow under one rule. Together we will all work together so no one pack has to face the mayhem of another. Together we will-" the lights cut out and everyone lifts there head.

Was this apart of the speech?

Serenity who had mixed into the crowd got an uneasy feeling as the lights cut out. She didn't know the plan, but this wasn't in it. She could just feel it wasn't.

"Your plans of unification don't sit right with us." A voice boomed around the room. "They don't fit in with our plans."

Liam looked around the room trying to find the source of the voice. As was everyone else.

"And what might your plans be?" Liam asked the voice.

"Destruction."

Serenity stood up and practically ran to where Liam stood.

"Chaos. As your father once brought to us."

The lights flashed back on to reveal a guy in a black cloak standing on one of the highest pillars. He held a bow but the arrow was already flying through the air half way to it's target by the time anyone realized what was happening.

Everything seemed to be running in slow motion. Serenity rushed to Liam the target of the arrow, Liam looked at her realizing what she was going to do, and Mateo in attempt to save his alpha pushed Liam out of the way.

The arrow hit it's target and everything stood silent.

Liam sat up from being pushed out of the way by Mateo. He looked at the two bodies laying on the ground. Eyes widening he rushed over to the two.

"What have you done?!" He growled picking up the body with the arrow pieced through the chest.

"Seems as my arrow didn't reach its target. Second time is the charm isn't it?" The cloaked guy got ready to let another arrow loose.

"Stop, stop, no more," Liam looked down at Serenity. She clutched onto the arrow that made its home in her chest.

It was too late. The stranger had already let the arrow loose. As it flew through the air Liam had to react. To dodge it he jumps back in lightening speed.

By now everyone is in defense. Warriors bared their claws, mothers grabbed their children ready to flee, and some froze with fear.

"Ahh seems as my arrows won't take anyone by surprise anymore. No matter. I didn't come alone." The guy in the cloak raised his arms and people also in cloaks began to fall from the ceiling.

The room began to spin as Serenity laid in Liam's arms. The arrow that pierced her was just any old regular arrow. The tip was silver and laced in wolfsbane. Two of the most deadly things to werewolf's.

"Liam get out of here! They're after you!" Aston gripped onto his forearm attempting to pull him out the room.

"No!" He growled his eyes flashing between yellow and their normal color. He was about to loose control.

"Giver her to me then," Aston knew he was about to loose control it was sure to be a blood bath, "I'll make sure she gets help." Dropping Liam's arm he reached out for Serenity.

In this moment he was conflicted. Looking back out he saw the fight already begging. Claws out tearing and slashing through the enemy. Woman and children fleeing the room. Blood stains the newly polished marble floors.

Chaos.

Exactly what he was trying to prevent. Liam's whole goal was to stop the fighting. No more innocent life's needed to be lost in the sake of power.

And Selene saw this. She wanted the same as him. For all of her lovely creations to stop fighting. For this reason she could no longer sit back and watch as they destroyed each other.

Red light flooded in the the windows. At first no one noticed. The moon shifted into place creating a total lunar eclipse. Giving the sky its blood red color.

It wasn't until the air became ridge and cold, and a bright light appeared in the middle of the room. Everyone took notice and froze.

"My beautiful creations. Why must you fight and destroy each other." A voice came out of the light. So pure and angelic. So ethereal.

People shielded their eyes hoping to get a glimpse of the person. Hoping to get a glade at the woman concealed inside. It's almost like they craved it. Craved her.

"I've given you everything." She took a step out of the light revealing her barefoot first. "And you want more?" Now she sounded ashamed disappointed. Everyone drew in on her every move.

Stepping fully out of the light she revealed herself. She has dark glowing skin with gold markings covering her body, her dark hair trails all the way down to her feet, the hair piece she wore was killer.

The gown she wears is a beautiful gold satin fabric with swirl pattern. The dress stops at her ankles revealing her bare feet but as she continued to step out of the blinding light it trailed behind her.

Liam held eye contact with her. As she walked up to him.

"I went so far as to let you choose who you fall in love in, but apparently that was too much free will. You turned even that sour. Marrying off for more power." Her expression turned hard.

"To try and fix my mistakes, atone for sins, I gave you my daughter. I posed as one of you found my mate, and whenever I had to go back took my whole pack with me. But for the rest of you I left y'all my daughter." She looked to the left and right of her addressing her people.

"I left her in hopes that one day she could help. Bring peace. Instead of giving her an even growing ground y'all struck her down and stripped her of her power! I idly stood back and watched it happen, but no more." She stopped in front of Liam.

He kneeled before the goddess and set Serenity down. She had lost consciousness and had no clue what was happening. Trapped inside her own brain she didn't even know her mother was standing before her.

"Oh my lovely child." The goddess swiped her hand above her daughters body. In a orange glowing heat the arrow disappeared.

"You," she looks up at Liam, "the last two people I ever paired up together. I had such high hopes for you my son," she grazed over his cheek, "and yet they corrupted you two. One of the purest souls. I made you specifically for my daughter." The goddess shook her head.

"We beg you for another chance." He looks down speaking indirect her.

"Another chance?" She laughs, "I could give you all a million chances, but you will never change."

Serenity's body starts floating and the goddess turns on her heels, "I'm just here to liberate and save my own blood."

"You are not who you seem! You stand here before us deciding all who stand here!" The guy who shot the arrows at Liam steps forward pointing an accusing finger.

"You dare accuse me of being a fake?"

"I'm accusing you of being a witch!"

She laughs yet again. Cracking up she throws her head back, only to sober up seconds later. With the snap of her fingers the guy turns into a frog, "anyone else have any accusations?" She asked looking around. No one uttered a word.

"Okay then. I guess I'll be on my w-"

"Just a request."

She turns back around being cut off, "oh a request is it?"

"Yes, I plead here before you to not take her away."

Realign who he's talking about she walks closer to him, "and why should I listen to your request?"

"I was made for her she's meant to be with me. You will not only be hurting me, but her as well."

She thought about it for a moment, "in this moment you hav hurt her more than anyone here."

"I will change my way. Please. Give me time."

The goddess thought about it for a moment, "very well then. You have three moons. Make her fall in love with you, head over heels. In three months time I will come back to you and we will let her decide."

"Let her decide?"

"Yes," she nods her head, "to make it a fair playing field I will take away all memories. In fact no one here will remember this or me."

"Take all her memories? Even of before?"

"Yes. She will only remember her name. The humans call it amnesia. You can have her for now, but in three months time she will regain all of her memories and decide for herself."

"Until then my alpha."




Woah? What a plot twist. What did y'all think?

Will Serenity fall in love with Liam?

How will Liam win over her love?
