Bloodmoon: Peace Treaty Read Free

appreciate the subtler tastes my friend and a refined palate, is not something you possess" he said, tapping his friend's shoulder good-humouredly.
    They both laughed.
    Christoph sighed
    "I overheard some of the boys yesterday saying how they missed the war. It was rather odd. One would think the constant fighting finally coming to an end would be a relief"
    His friend scoffed
    "They've made a habit of ripping out werewolf hearts my friend. Your father's peace treaty with the fur faced alpha chief has come as a bit of a sudden break from what has essentially become a routine"
    "Werewolf hearts are not all that have been ripped out in this war that we don't know the inception of Remus. A lot of us have fallen on the battleground as well. You know all too well." he looked at his friend checking for a reaction. All he saw was humour
    "You don't seem all that bothered by the change though" Christoph pressured.
    "Well, maybe I'm just tired. You know. I mean, before now, sitting here would not be all that comfortable as we would be expecting an attack at any time. Hunting's been way easier since it was signed. You know I'm all about the easy life" Remus finished, leaning back
    "Hmmm. Well, personally, it's the change we needed really. At least now we can thrive a little and not constantly be in fear of raids on our nurseries"
    "Yeah." Remus agreed. "You know what, I'm not satisfied yet. I think I'll grab another quick snack"
    "Two from the same village. On the same night. You animal" Christoph said with mock exasperation.
    "Aren't we all, deep down?" Remus asked as he headed into the village, stepping over the body of the young girl.

                    Christoph ducked and the saber sailed over his head and impaled a tree behind him,
    "You're getting insanely good at that" he said "almost got me that time"
    "Next time you won't be so lucky" she said, flaring her nostrils
    "Cocky as ever" he said and charged her, diving towards her, she dropped to the ground and rolled under him, evading his attack. She retrieved her saber and ran towards him slicing at him as she reached him, he brought his blade up to parry the attack, and with his free hand slammed his fist into her ribs, only pulling back at the last minute, diminishing the effect.
    The punch sent her reeling backwards, and her grasp loosened over her weapon. With a quick movement, he disarmed her as she lurched backwards. She was on her feet instantly and advanced towards him, claws protracted
    "Hand to hand. Finally" he said and tossed the saber and his blade to the ground. She lunged at him, clearing the distance between them in one leap. Before he could react, she threw a left hook at his chin and he raised his hand to block, realising too late that it was a feint. Her other hand came up and knocked his face to the side sending him careening into nearby tree.
    He felt the broken bones in his jaw slowly heal as he got to his feet.
    Man, she could throw a punch.
    He couldn't remember when last he'd been caught off guard like that. What was it about her really, that threw him off his game?
    As he stood up, she raced towards him. He jumped, succeeding in making a clean forward dive over her head and landed behind her. She turned round quickly, but he was already in front of her and as his hand advanced towards her face, he suddenly switched tactics and opened the fist while lowering his arm a bit, letting the palm make contact with her chest. The shove, backed with amazing strength would have broken an ordinary person's chest and collapsed some internal organs. Keena tumbled backwards and sat there, hand to her chest as a trickle of blood coursed down the side of her lip.
    "Had enough?" Christoph taunted
    "You wish, bloodsucker" she growled, wincing as she got up.
    This time she went in claws first and made contact. The claw mark went all the way down his
