Evil on the Prowl

Finn led the old witch back to her groove, it was the space he had made for her and the space she would remain. He didn't need to do it,he had thousands of soldiers at his beck and call but he wanted to. It was a rite he was comfortable with and one he wanted to keep but mostly it was because Finn didn't trust anyone else to handle the old woman, she was useful in his plans for the future.
But mostly Finn liked to gloat and she likely knew it.
" Why do you walk me, every time Finn, I am sure it is not respect and I really don't like your company" she muttered and he laughed unoffended
" That hurt my feeling but I still love you" he said drily and she shot him a bored and tired look.
She looked older, than she actually was. It was a mechanism to protect herself, or to make him mad especially since she was able to change forms at will ,the only bit of power he had left here with.
This time she had chosen this degenerate form her hair filled with more gray than actual black, only a thin line of that running through the whole thing, her eyes were closed together and he knew that she was almost blind in both eyes but yet she could see as far as she wanted to, as far as her soul ordered her to. She was that powerful and he needed that power.
" You smell more and more like magic everyday, how you hide that stench from them I do not know" she said and Finn shrugged, giving her a teasing grin
" That's fine with me I enjoy keeping you guessing" Finn replied.
Finn loved magic, it was in his every breath and his every movement. Hiding it was never easy. He did his best but it was always a bother but for now he needed to be able to blend in. To hide with what was inferior in other to get them to work for him.
Finn opened the doors to the groove and led her inside, she left his hand and moved to sit.
" I'll see you soon my dearest" Finn whispered and she laughed
" Darling for my sake , I'd rather not have you here" she muttered and he smiled locking the door, behind him.
She walked to a corner and sat by the steps, Finn turned away from her as she stared into space likely seeing one of her vision
" This will not last, and cannot last. Bad magic will always pervade and pervert what is good. Your soul Finn, your soul is slowly turning black" Finn froze swallowing thickly and she sighed
" Of course I'll take your warning seriously grandmother, after all you have been very helpful to me" Finn gritted.
Finn strolled out of the dungeon pocketing the keys to her cell, he was annoyed and frustrated the guards passed him giving him a wide berth as if to avoid the way he followed them with his eyes.
With the way he felt he was likely to kill them all if he was further provoked.
Over thirty years of hard work, uncountable years of striving and such an accomplishment added to his name that it felt unbreached and her words could reduce him in a minute to some unruly child
Finn hated her with all his soul, from the day she had taken him from his mother and family to as she claimed drive the lust out of him seance, beatings , summoning circles, nothing had worked to her satisfaction.
One day he had realized that no matter what he did she would always see evil in him, in his father and no one else, so he had gotten better at pretending and lying.
And it had worked for a while, he had run from home escaping her, had hidden himself for years in different packs disappearing to another pack when it felt like he was being tailed only to come back reinvented as a new person.
Finn was no longer, a mistake, He was a man of his own standing, one with a goal to achieve.
He strode to his room eager for the freedom that would come from giving up control and thought.
He shrugged off his jacket and tossed it onto the table, he sighed as his door opened and a female with short walked in. She smiled looking at him

" Send me a blond woman " Finn muttered tugging his shirt over his head as she came to stand in front of him taking it from his hands
" Are you sure a woman is all you want " she asked and he huffed
" No. Of course yes I want a woman, get me a whore. Is that breaking it down for you" he hissed and she smiled leaning into him. It was his request almost every time and she knew to send the girls to him when he wanted without asking too much questions.
The arrangement worked for all of them it stopped him from going mad.
" You are too wound up and we know it, I don't have any girls I am willing to discard" she hissed biting at his lips harshly and he winced.
She took her hand to his trousers and unbuttoned them. She stripped him down to his underwear, and took his hand leading him towards the table.
She poured a glass of wine, and sipped it then poured him another glass.
Finn sipped at the wine, taking a deep breath he was so close to achieving his dreams, the problem was it was going too slowly for his liking.
He had enemies every where and getting rid of them was becoming a pain in the ass. Especially that Emily girl, her father had darkened his every waking moment for years. It had taken a long time to shake him off and even more time to get rid of him. Now getting rid of the progeny that he had spawned was the next step and it was proving hard to accomplish.
Finn looked Tamara the ghoul beauty, she was the best of both worlds, the ferociousness of a half demon and the cunning of a wolf submissive.
She could hide herself well and in a way she was just like him, kindred spirits.
He stared at her head to toe and smiled, she was pretty, ever young and very experienced.
Finn could have fun with her as hard as he wanted and she would not break and while he like when they were broken maybe he needed her rigidity now.
" Here have a sip" Finn said, she looked him dead in the eye as she took the glass and sipped from it .
Finn almost laughed at the defiance and audacity burning in her gaze. She was perfect.
Finn ran his hand over her hair, she stilled but looked me in the eye her blue gaze piercing mine, Finn reached for the dark rope and handed it to her, she looked at it and huffed taking into her hand, she walked to the bed and strung it over the railing.
She hung her hand in the air and he smiled walking to her.
" Cover your eyes " he instructed, she looked at it as if she was going to say no, he wanted her to say no and like she had heard him she muttered the words
" No" he laughed raising his hands he slapped her face, she hissed going slack before stiffening he tied the band around her hands first the left then the right.

She stiffened when he stood over her and Finn smiled, Finn kissed her soft at first, coaxing her into the act, running his hands over her waist,she moaned and Finn sighed the pleasure suffusing my skin,so he felt like he was riding a the god-damned tornado or was that a hurricane.
Finn tugged at her dress and began to work her over, teasing and coaxing her so that she cried out in pain and in pleasure, a mix of both that had him brimming with a high that felt unreal.
Finn could feel her magical core opening, that part of her that was wolf and ghoul fighting for dominance. She snarled harshly pushing him away as if she wanted to fight him.
He held her close shuddering under the strength of her draw.Finn shuddered the power making him lightheaded,
He reached for her neck wrapping his hand around it , the soft grip nothing to get frightened about. He didn't want her dead , he bit the crook of her neck.
"Take it easy" she whispered kissing her cheeks as he squeezed even tighter, tears leaked from her eyes running down a straight line over her face,the snarls and growls subsiding like she was overwhelmed and too tired to make a sound .
Finn smiled as she stilled her breath leaving her in harsh pumps that made him a little delirious.
He took his hand away form her neck and pulled off her, Finn stood from her still warm body, then reached for the knife in the bed side drawer next to him and cut the ropes, he caught her as she sagged to the floor , a knock on his door had him stilling
" Who are you and what the hell do you want " he muttered, beneath him Tamara shuddered and sat up straight watching straight ahead like a zombie.
" It's me sir, the ghouls failed to catch their scent " Finn cursed, what the hell would it take for someone to do a god-damned good job
" Get Attina" Tamara said calling the head priestess name.
He stood and nodded , maybe that was the best idea.
" Get Attina" he roared out the door.
The sky was pitch black and Finn didn't really enjoy being out in the cold but Attina was a nature diviner and did her best work while communing.
The moon round and full and it's, the pale light giving a backdrop to the unclad woman. She stood still, tall and slender red hair falling lushly over her shoulders, as magic seeped from her curling around the trees, the rocks congealing the air with its stink.The birds and all the creatures of the night were quiet watching and waiting.
Gliding across the grass she came to a stop at the water, flowing with a rush. This was where water ran as fire and ice, as good and evil that pale moon round and full served its purpose shining into the water clear giving back no reflection,
" How can I help you " she asked and he sighed
" Find me Emily and Logan Axel " he muttered and she grinned
" Are you sure you don't want me to do more " she said and he snarled.
She laughed pulling away and then she began the chants
"Oh water most pure, give me what I seek, the one to whom my heart seeks show to me" she cried, taking the bowl of blood that had been left for her use she poured it into the water, it stained red for only a millisecond before it turned back to it pale translucent white .
The water danced side to side and she smiled

"Give me who I seek, she whose destiny twines with mine" she cried out and the water began to shake violent and strong, and then it gave way to glass and Finn saw her just as clear as anyone else in the room. Looking almost half feral for a moment.
" She is with two others apart from the Alpha, they seek the fair head prince of evil and his brothers in his rules " she murmured as she watched, her face falling into a frown, he watched her
" You should be careful, black ravens" she whispered as the vision faded
" Mistress" a small man with a stubby nose reached for her when she tethered
" No touching, what have I told you about touching" he muttered as he gave her the red cloak she shrugged it on and sighed
" Where are they exactly" he asked her and she shrugged
" I saw bits and pieces"
" Tell me" he gritted and she sighed
" Forests of burnished leaves , a hilly terrain"
" Golden Fang" Tamara whispered and he straightened
" Get me some ghouls "
" We will soon make our move," he said and she nodded walking away from him.
The world would soon know my name.
Tamara smiled evilly as she entered the room that the ghouls were stored mostly inanimate, she called out
" Sister, I have a task for you" and a shadow walked into the light, a girl young but old, and on her young face hinged a terrible wicked smile.
