Filed To Story: Sorry Alpha I Am Wolfless Novel
We had essentially rented out about half of the resort, a few other guests were here but not many at all, and with our large group we were definitely intimidating to the others. The manager and other employees mostly just watched us from a distance as they seemed too afraid to spend much time directly in our presence. It was probably the sheer amount of money we’d spent on a whim.
The rooms hadn’t been cheap, and we had rented seventy of them. Add to that the food we had ordered in the restaurant and had delivered to the rooms for all of us to eat since yesterday afternoon, we had probably spent around sixty thousand dollars, if not more. And Joaquin just handed over his credit card without batting an eyelash, that was a lot of money.
After we had all loaded up and were seated in the SUVs, we were ready to ship out. Twenty SUVs total, that’s what we were all spread into. I had wondered what had happened to all the cars the warlocks had driven, but Noah told me that they had gone in teams to drop them off at the Aerie Convento and then come back. We were going with uniformity here apparently. Noah and Joaquin were both stuck on this Hollywood idea of group travel. I just wanted to laugh at them.

It took almost seven hours to drive from just a little north west of Crested Butte where the resort was to the edge of Kanorado. We did, of course stop for provisions and a restroom break so we would be ready to fight when we got there. That was an interesting stop. Nearly a hundred people and twenty vehicles all moving together, it felt like everyone was staring at us, again.
But even though we caught the eyes of many, we still made it to our destination unscathed and ready to go. It was now my turn to lead them all to the proper place. I sat in the front and guided Joaquin as he drove, leading the caravan. I pointed to the house in the distance, showing them where we were going.
We circled back and found a secluded place to hide the large number of vehicles. It was best for us to do the final approach on foot. We formed groups of around ten, mixed with wolves and warlocks alike, then set off. We moved silently, wolves naturally making less sound than humans and the warlocks adding noise blocking spells.
I knew we should expect them to be ready for the ambush, ready with a counter attack, but I didn’t know what to expect. And, that was when I felt a stinging pain on my left shoulder and had a sudden vision.
I saw a group of about twenty monstrosities guarding the outside of the house. They didn’t move at all until they saw us, but they then descended on us with fury filled eyes as warlocks hidden around the house started shooting spells at us. We would manage to win, but not without a few casualties.
“Joaquin, wait.” I told him. “They’re ready with an ambush.” I added.
“What are you saying?” Noah asked me and Joaquin looked at me with curious eyes.
“There’s a group waiting to attack us while we fight the monsters out front.”
“How do you know?” Noah was skeptical apparently.
“I’m the goddess.” I told him, that was all I needed to say.
“You have the eye, do you not?” Gabriel asked me.
“Yes I do.” I smiled.
“So, you have the gift of future sight. That will be useful when you learn to develop it.”
“What do you propose we do?” Vincent asked me, glossing over Gabriel’s words.
“David, Carter come here.” I called these two specifically for their abilities.
“Yes?” David asked me.
“What’s up?” Carter came to my side.
“You two take who you think will be of most use and take care of the warlocks hiding around the house. It seemed to be about four total. They were acting like snipers as they hid in the shadows of the house.”
“Will do.” Carter answered with a grin.
“Understood.” David nodded his head understanding what he had to do.
The two of them took a few others with them, two warlocks and two wolves. While they were on their way to deal with the snipers, we positioned ourselves and waited to deal with the mutants that Edmond had created.
I was waiting for their signal to let us know that they had accomplished their objective. While I watched on I thought of something that Joaquin had told me earlier. There were arrow markings on both of shoulders and an archer mark on my back. Am I really capable of doing something like that?
I decided to just trust my instincts and try. I closed my eyes and imagined an arrow made of ice. I pictured one that was small, only about a foot long and thin. But the tip looked leathally sharp. While I pictured the arrow in my mind I felt a slight stinging pain in my left shoulder and in my back where Joaquin had indicated the archer symbol.
“Whoa!” I heard someone exclaim nearby. I opened my eyes to see everyone looking at me and the arrow that was floating next to my head.
“All hail Queen Riviana.” One of the warlocks spoke reverently, and as I watched he and all the other warlocks and every Sentinelle present knelt to the ground and bowed to me.
“You’re amazing.” Joaquin grinned at me. “But don’t forget that you had two types of arrows.”
“I know.” I nodded as I closed my eyes again and imagined another arrow made entirely of wind. The same stinging pain arose again only on my right shoulder.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a second arrow hovering next to the other one near my head. Everyone was still staring at me, just as they had before.
“We should have no trouble this time.” Shawn was smiling confidently while the others nodded.
I could see from the other side of the yard that the first group had made contact and eliminated the snipers. The threat of their attacks was now gone so we readied our next move on the beasts outside the house.
Once we were all in position I prepared several arrows. I wanted to test out the effectiveness of my newest weapon and the aim I would have with them. With over fifty arrows at the ready I focused on the location of all the monsters.
With just a simple thought I was able to send an arrow flying. It landed at exactly the right target I planned on. Right between the eyes of the closest beast. I wanted to test things a little more. I thought of the two enemies standing one in front of the other. I wanted to know if my arrows would change direction to hit targets, so I aimed for the one in back.
