Chap 22 - Announcement

Somewhere off-camera she thought she heard screams cut short, death coming closer. Michelle found it difficult to read. The people behind the cameras nervously shuffled. No alarms had gone off, so everyone remained in position. Hell, it was the eighteenth floor. If those people had made it past the fifth, alarms would have sounded by now. Overhead, adjustable spotlights caught a towering werewolf that materialized behind her, a nightmarish sight seen by her audience and staff. Its monstrous form seized their attention. In an instant, she wondered why everyone had frozen, staring behind her. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the beast.

“You see people, even my colleagues, they are demonstrating what things they do with special effects these days - you see that one –” Its malevolence, a sinister force made flesh. In that harrowing moment, reason abandoned her like a sudden, cruel switch, and her primal instincts took over, plunging her into a visceral state of survival. The overwhelming sense of impending doom consumed her, her heart pounding like a war drum, and her every fiber scream of the approaching death lurking in the shadowy depths.

Malice dripped from every feral feature, an embodiment of pure nastiness. In that heart-stopping moment, her senses were heightened to the point of agony as her primal mind took control. The world has narrowed to a singular focus: impending death. Time slowed to a crawl, and the adrenaline coursed through her veins, urging her to flee, fight, do anything to escape the beast’s deadly intent.

But as much as she struggled to resist, there was a primal knowing deep within her, an instinctual acceptance of her own vulnerability in the face of such a death machine. The werewolf’s aura was suffocating, overpowering any thought of defiance or strategy. In that dread-filled moment, she was stripped of all defenses, laid bare before the live broadcasting cameras.

No words could encapsulate the sheer horror that gripped Michelle’s soul, for it transcended the limitations of language, leaving only the raw and unfiltered essence of terror in its wake. As the colossal werewolf advanced, its shadow casting an abyss over her, every fiber of her being screamed in desperation, yearning for escape, for some miraculous deliverance from the imminent clutches of demise. Yet, within the recesses of her mind, she felt the harsh reality closing in—a life already forfeited.

Michelle, in a futile attempt to regain control, had let her mouth mechanically utter the last conscious words she had gleaned from the prompter. “A breath that—” Her breath, destined to become a final gasp, was mercilessly stolen as the monstrous creature, with unrestrained savagery, tore into her throat. As it descended upon Michelle with unleashed malevolence, its massive jaws parted with an eerie grace, revealing glistening fangs that promised carnage. As the first impact occurred, the initial tear into Michelle’s delicate flesh was accompanied by violence. The skin, taut and resistant, succumbed to the relentless force of the werewolf’s bite, giving way with a sickening rip.

Blood didn’t merely spill; it erupted in a torrent of crimson, propelled by the powerful force of the assault. The arterial spray, vivid in its macabre beauty, arced through the air, creating a grotesque tableau that painted the walls, floor, and fur of the savage creature in a visceral hue of red. Each heartbeat propelled more life force from Michelle’s severed throat, creating a pulsating rhythm of horror that matched the pounding in the chests of horrified viewers.

The werewolf’s teeth, sharp and ravenous, rended through skin, sinew, and muscle, leaving a jagged landscape of torn flesh in its wake. The once pristine, illuminated newsroom now bore witness to the unbridled brutality of the predator, its teeth tearing through the delicate canvas of human anatomy. The horror was not subdued; it was a savage, primal dance of predator and prey played out in the cruel spotlight of reality. The live streaming feed did not shy away from savagery.

As life drained from Michelle, the beast concluded its merciless act. A gleam of studio lights reflected off the pools of crimson that stained the floor. The haunting silence that followed, a stark contrast to the former buzz of the newsroom, resonated with the gruesome reality that no amount of words could adequately convey. Michelle’s misjudgment and her final moments played out in a grotesque loop, etching a nightmarish tableau that would forever haunt the memories of those who had dared to witness the unholy demise on live television.

The werewolf, carrying its trophy, retreated into the back rooms of the studio, leaving behind the haunting aftermath of its viciousness. Her body, now a vessel drained of vitality, left a trail of crimson on the glossy floor, blood smeared in gruesome testimony. The studio lights above cast a hospital brilliance to accentuate the horror of the fresh blood that mingles with the sheen of the floor surface. As the werewolf callously dragged the lifeless body away, it let out a rumbling purr and soft chuffing noise to signal contentment, submission, and gratitude to its alpha.

What the cameras could not express was the lingering copper scent of the blood of the misguided and stubborn anchor.

Antonio stepped forward. He calmly strolled through the smeared bloody trail of Michelle’s body with a calculated blend of satisfaction and concealed malevolence. A sinister grin played on his lips as he took a deliberate step forward, his eyes locked on the spectacle. The live stream camera, still rolling, captures every painful detail, the marred floor and lupine hair.

As Antonio approached the front of Michelle’s anchor desk, the once vibrant newsroom was now somber under the harsh scrutiny of studio lights. He calmly strolled through the smeared bloody trail of Michelle’s body with a calculated blend of satisfaction and concealed malevolence. A sinister grin played on his lips as he took a deliberate step forward, his eyes locked on the spectacle.

The live stream camera, still rolling, captures every painful detail, the marred floor and lupine hair. A ghastly hush, the stillness magnifying the horror etched in their minds, descended into frozen numbness from the savage execution of Michelle. The live stream camera captured every deliberate step, every speck of blood, broadcasting the gory aftermath and the enigmatic King of the Werewolves.
