Gavin Cromwell eyesofthewolf / Alexandra Talbot runningisherart / Landon Maxwell landonmaxwell / Genevieve Cromwell twinofthewolf Mini Bios: Gavin ~ It never troubles the wolf how many sheep may be. Gavin Cromwell, was born June 19, 1995, to Boris, and Catherine Cromwell. Gavin has a twin sister named Genevieve, and an older brother named Ethan. They all three were born and raised in Greenwich London, England. They come from a royal family with a dark secret. A family of wolves. They lived as royalty by day, but when the moon was full they ran wild as beasts through the forests. Gavin's grandfather was the leader of their pack, as was his father, and when it was his father's time to step down Gavin took leadership over his eldest brother Ethan who wanted no part of the pact. He packed his bags and left the country to find a different life to live and deny any part of the wolf that was inside of him. Gavin was a great ruler, and pack Alpha. he was strong, brave, loyal to the pack, and was every bit the warrior his father had been when he was the pack's Alpha. Gavin ran leadership of his pack for three years before hunters began hunting after them it was on a cold winter night when the moon was full and hunters came in a pack of their own and killed three members of Gavin's pack. The next morning when Gavin returned home he found his mother and father both dead - murdered silver bullets through their hearts and both their heads severed from their bodies. He began to scream in a rage and destroy any and everything in his path until he hadn't the strength to move any longer. He slid down a wall and pulled his knees up to his chest and began to cry. He swore upon his life that he would find the men who did this to them and he would rip out their insides. Lo and behold Gavin watched the surveillance disks and found that it was the same guys that came after him and his pack. He would have his revenge, but it would be after he laid his parents to rest. After laying his parents to rest Ethan left his sister in charge of the pack and he left following the trail of the scent that the hunters left behind when he found them he killed four out of the five of them. Ripping their hearts out of their chest and then burning their bodies along with the house he had tracked them down to the ground. he took satisfaction in killing them and then watching their bodies burn as he poured gasoline all over their dead bodies and all through the house, and then set it a blaze. He wouldn't feel justice for his parents until he found the last hunter and killed him as well. So he packed a few things and left London. Leaving his sister behind to rule over the pack in his absence and not wanting her to travel with him in fear that she would be more of a distraction and he wouldn't be able to keep her safe from hunters out there as he knew there were more that would come eventually. Gavin traveled to many places before finding his way to the city of New Orleans which is where he had tracked the scent f the last living hunter that killed his parents. He's been living in New Orleans for the past year and a half now and chasing after the hunter has been like chasing after a ghost. Every time he catches his scent and gets close to finding him, it's like he then vanishes. Ethan knows he's nearby and he won't stop hunting him till he finds him, and kills him. He's been so focused and nearly obsessed with tracking the hunter that it's left him very little time for much else. No fun, no friends, not even time to seek a mate or think about looking for a mate. Not with everything that's been happening in his life over the past year and a half. He's been consumed by wanting revenge despite his sister's wishes for him to live his life, have a little fun, and seek out a mate so that he's not alone he's not listened to or taken her advice. Gavin is constantly thinking, and plotting the death of the last hunter. There's very little that distracts him from his mission, and he has a one-track mind. Once he gets something in his head that's all he thinks about, all he focuses on. Just recently he decided to listen to his sister and take one night off from all the chaos in his life and do something fun or at least interesting and learn a little about the city he was living in. Not that he wasn't aware of most things that went on in New Orleans he knew about pretty much everything that went on in the city, but he figured he would make his sister happy and go take a little tour about voodoo, and mysterious ghosts and vampires. Things that excited and both frightened the tourists. Humans were quick to believe anything they heard, but what they didn't know was most of what they thought was just for entertainment was true. The supernatural world was very much alive in the city of New Orleans. Now wasn't the time for distractions, but as Gavin went on that tour he ended up meeting a woman, another wolf while he was there, and the two were seemingly drawn to one another. they got to talking, and eventually lost the crowd from the tour and ended up alone just the two of them. They decided to go have a meal together, and the more Gavin got to know the little wolf the more smitten he became with her. This was unusual for Gavin he didn't ever find himself smitten with other women or female wolves. Sure he had had flings with them, some shagging, but that's as far as it ever went by the next day he was right back to what was important. Gavin ended up spending the night with Alexandra, but they didn't have sex. Gavin had been respectful because unlike other women he had been with he saw something special in her, and wanted to treat her differently than he had other women. She is a potential mate and from the first night, they met they've been together every day. She's been a distraction, but Gavin doesn't see her as a distraction and more of a gift that he stumbled upon. He has a hard time believing that fate brought them together because he doesn't believe in silly fairy tales things such as love at first sight or fate, but he knew they had a strong connection from the moment their eyes met.</a> Alexandra~ In the calm, deep waters of the mind, the wolf waits. One cold day in February 2002, Alexandra Victoria was born into an affluent Georgian family, the Talbots. Alex's parents doted on her, giving her everything she ever wanted. That was the modus operandi for the filthy rich everywhere. Elinor Talbot grew up on a poor dirt farm. Once she had Alexandra, it was important to instill in her the family values Ellie grew up with as a child. Alex's father, Ken did most of the spoiling. Growing up kind and thoughtful, she never fit into the usual boxes others used to place rich, beautiful people in. Her early childhood, for the most part, was uneventful. Ken taught his only daughter how to hunt and fish, ingraining in her a love for nature along with a respect for other animals. Alex would rather play by herself in the woods than go to the posh parties her little friends hosted. Dressing up in her best clothes was never fun for Alexandra. She did as she was told, participating in the ones her parents felt would help her gain a place in their exclusive society. There were always rules, ones, for the most part, she followed. Once a young lady reaches each society's age of adulthood, a particular celebratory party is held on her special day. It takes place as a formal ball, held in the spring in Georgia. Guests are expected to follow a dress code that will match the event’s theme. Alex chose fantasy. The guest costumes did not disappoint. As it was supposed to be, Alex out-shown every attendant. Stunning wasn't an adjective that did her look justice. In high school, Alex became the most popular 'it girl', a role she handled graciously, befriending students from all classes. It was easy to like her. Grades, above average, but not stellar, kept her studying to keep from disappointing her parents causing her to miss the big parties where drugs and alcohol abounded. Although her grades were good, they weren't good enough to support her application for Yale University, following in the footsteps of her father. If she'd known their money paved the way for her college entrance, she would have chosen differently. Freshman year was difficult. Alex spent most of her time, studying, causing her to be antisocial. This was a new skin for her, one she didn't like. Her sophomore year was different. This time she made friends and got involved in campus activities, making her popularity soar. It was during this year when Tyler Montgomery, the alpha of the elite alpha of the New Haven, Connecticut wolf pack noticed her. He took her out a few times, but his feelings for her were not reciprocated. Tyler became obsessed with Alex only to begin stalking her. It was the Wednesday night of college break. Alexandra stayed on campus to study. Most of the students of the private Ivy League research university headed down to Florida. Alex wasn't interested in that kind of shenanigans. Saving herself for marriage, she avoided any event that might accidentally change her resolve. That night was warm, with a slight breeze dissipating the heat. Dressed in shorts and a tee shirt, that complimented her looks, she went off on a walk. Lost in thought, she hadn't realized how isolated she'd become. While walking a stick cracked behind her, as if a foot bore its full weight on it, accompanied by a low growl. Turning around on a dime, what she saw in front of her was horrifying. She zoned in on the sharp canines of the largest wolf she'd ever seen. "No," she screamed turning back around to run away. She wasn't fast enough. A few steps were taken before strong paws forced her into the dirt. Savagely, he bit her neck. The wound was deep, and painful, spewing blood everywhere. Her attacker began licking her shoulder, taking in her blood. When he had enough, he changed back into a form she would recognize. Taking hold of both her feet, he flipped her around, making her groan as she fell on her back. It pleasured him to take from her what she was saving for a husband. Amid this ferocious act, Alexandra passed out. Days later, laying there, the covers up to her neck, fearful. Tyler eventually entered carrying a luncheon tray. As he sat down beside her he placed the tray over her lap, threatening her if she did not eat. Taking his time, he warned her what he would do to her parents if she didn't cooperate and marry him. Tyler explained, in graphic detail, what he would do when he eviscerated them. Reluctantly, Alex agreed. Thinking about the final total of this 'affair,' Alex's heart hurts at the waste of it. This is not her wedding dream. On her wedding day. desperate, Alexandra procrastinates and wrecks her bedroom in search of something precious. After a warning from Tyler 'that being late' wouldn't be tolerated,' Ellie reluctantly zips up the back of her daughter's white slinky dress. The bride looked spectacular, not so much the dress. As an afterthought, Alex grabbed her favorite purse. Pulling on the strap, linking it over her shoulder. Alexandra and Ellie climbed into the shiny family limo. (An emergency business zoom meeting forced 'the bride's father' to arrive later.) After ten minutes, their driver, Nick, turned left, taking a shortcut. (Tyler promised Nick a significant 'transportation fee if the bride arrived earlier than scheduled.) The quicker route takes them over the most dangerous bridge in town. On the way to the wedding venue, the Talbot vehicle crosses the bridge on the right side. From the opposite direction, a swerving truck comes barrelling over the crest of the 'George Washinton Bridge,' toward them. Mr. Walker, a drunk driver, unexpectedly changes lanes. It wasn't even a second when the two autos were nose to nose. The impact bashes in the Talbot automobile, forcing the limo backward. The rear end propels upward traveling backward at an angle. Spilling over the old railing, and tumbling into the frigid swirling water below, Nick and the Talbots disappear deep into the murky river. Tyler, assuming Alexandra is dead, visits her father to share their mutual bereavement. Realizing he did have a modicum of feelings for Alex, he seeks revenge on Alex's closest relative. On a ruse, Tyler persuades Ken to join him outside for a Brandy. Shifting, Tyler viscerates the eldest Talbot, leaving the remaining bits of his body splattered, in a strange pattern, on the back lawn of the Talbot Manson. Men in black gathered Alex's broken body. Arriving at the hospital, half-clothed, her engagement ring missing from her finger, Alex's massive injuries present a doubtful diagnosis. While waiting, they looked in her purse barely hooked onto her index finger. Inside they find her driver's license. The mystery of the identity of the amnesiac beauty is solved. Checking out of the hospital, the werewolf returns home trying to find answers to her questions. Taking time to read her journals, look in closets, and thoroughly search her house from top to bottom nothing was familiar. Alex ransacks the entire house from floor to ceiling, finding nothing. Returning to her parent's bedroom, she meanders moving from item to item holding the few nick-nacks in the room, hoping for any memory, regardless of how small. From under the bed, a starving cat darts out at her. Surprised, Alex fell several steps backward, stumbling over her father's signature Dior Oxfords falling against the ornate full mirror. Recovering, Alex brushes herself off as she heads to the door. Turning to take one last look, she catches a glimpse of a sliver of white tucked under the edge of the mirror and frame. Tugging at the white corner of the letter, she pulls it out. It is a one-way ticket out of Atlanta, with several stops along the way. The only conclusion she makes is someone is after her. Instead of taking the full flight, she decides to exit the plane at one of the stops. Alexandra is the last living relative of Larry Talbot. (The original Wolfman.) Through the centuries, the genes from Larry, in her DNA, have gone dormant. What happens if it triggers? Landon ~ That’s why we all hold onto life so hard… even the dead. Landon was born in Queens New York in 1712 to a family that was born hunters. His great-grandfather was a hunter, his grandfather, his father, and then he had grown up to become a hunter. He trained with his father as a young boy and learned all about vampires, werewolves, and witches, all of the things of the supernatural world. Landon learned how to fight against them. With age came his powers, abilities, speed, strength, and agility. When Landon turned sixteen he started hunting vampires, the more he killed the stronger he became. One night he was out hunting with his father. They were ambushed by a pack of vampires, Landon barely survived, but his father was killed. After that night, Landon made it his life mission to seek revenge on every bloodsucker to cross his path showing no mercy. He went after the vampires that killed his father and found where they were living then killed the remaining few that had survived that night and took them all out. When Landon turned eighteen, he left Queens and moved around a lot going from different states and ending up in England where he settled finding out that there were more vampires in that country. Hunting was good there, so he stayed a while, weeks turned into months, and months turned into years. Over the years, Landon traveled back and forth between New York and London, but he's been all over the world always on the mission to rid the world of vampires, werewolves, and any other supernatural creatures that have crossed his path over the hundreds of years he's lived. He doesn't look a day older than twenty-seven. With every kill of a supernatural creature, he becomes stronger, and his abilities increase. Many have tried to kill him, and a few have come close in his time, but he's always survived every fight. He's not one who has been known to hunt in a group of hunters as Landon is more of a single-player, one-man job kind of hunter. He likes to work alone and finds that hunting with others only slows him down getting in his way. Just recently about three years ago, he moved back to London where he's taken out a lot of vampires, and werewolves. he doesn't target werewolves, cause they are part human, but they are also part beast and that's the part he feels no remorse when he takes them out if he comes across them. He doesn't go hunting for them though, specifically. His prey is vampires, he despises vampires and will kill one without hesitation. About a year and a half ago, Landon met a woman at a pub, Genevieve. They had instant chemistry hitting it off, they went home together having a one-night stand. The sex between them was amazing, but they went their separate ways the next day and didn't see each other for a few months. They met up again and ended up sleeping together, and because the connection was so intense between them, they decided to give a relationship a chance, and things were amazing between them for a good six months. Landon found out that Genevieve was a werewolf. he felt betrayed and broke it off with her and didn't speak to her or see her again for another six months. However, although he tried, he couldn't get her out of his thoughts or leave her in the past. She was like a drug, an intoxicating drug that Landon was addicted to and had to have more of. He decided to call her and meet her at the place where they always met up at a hotel. They went round and round about all the reasons they shouldn't be together. They argued and there was tension between them, but after hours of going round and round, they ended up in bed together deciding that they would try and make their relationship work, somehow. So for the past few months, they have been working through their differences and getting more invested in one another. Genevieve decided that she wants to surprise her brother and make a visit to New Orleans. She is fed up with the distance between them, and won't settle for phone calls anymore. She wants Landon to travel with her so that she can introduce him to Gavin after she's broken the news to him about what he is, hoping that he will accept their relationship knowing how he feels about hunters. She's very hesitant when it comes to telling her brother about Landon, she is uncertain if she will be honest with him and tell him exactly what Landon is knowing how he'll react. She's never been one to follow the rules though especially when it comes to matters of her heart. If Gavin loves her as much as he says he does then he'll just have to trust that she's making the right choice for her life and for her happiness. Landon is unsure of how this will all play out, but he's agreed to go to New Orleans with her and meet her brother. He's promised to be cool as long as Gavin doesn't get crazy with him or try to attack him. He'll do what he has to protect himself even if that means putting Genevieve's brother down. Genevieve ~ When shepherds quarrel, the wolf has a winning game. Genevive and her twin brother Gavin were born on June 19, 1995, to a family of werewolves, Boris and Cathrine, and their parents and an older brother Ethan. A werewolf hunter sought out and killed their parents. Adults now, the three siblings split the hefty estate left to them. Ethan, Gavin, and Genevieve each inherited a mystical ring created to protect the Cromwell children. Hundreds of years ago, a witch, from their town, cast a spell on the moon rings. When worn, it controls shifting into wolf form. The eldest, Ethan, wanted to wear his ring. Gavin and Genevieve always embraced their inner wolf and took pride in what they were, not wanting to change. However, they took them and placed them on their finger out of respect for their father's last dying wish. The rebellious twin took off her ring on occasion. She enjoyed running under the full moon remembering how much she loved being a wolf. Gavin viciously killed five hunters who tracked down the Cromwell family. Taking his revenge, the bodies of the hunters were eviscerated to such a degree, the police could not identify them. Ethan left by this time, Gavin's concern focused on his sister, not the pack, knowing there were more hunters to come. Taking more precautions, and adding security, Gavin left his sister in charge of the London pack. Following leads on their parent's assassinator, Gavin traveled to the United States. With her twin gone on his quest for revenge, Genevive felt separation anxiety. Quelling it, she took to taking off the ring to run wild in the woods. She began frequenting bars, enjoying one-night stands. Every day, she talked to her brother via facetime. They adored each other, but it was time for them to make their way, alone. Genevive encouraged Gavin to get out among the people of New Orleans and find his mate. If he couldn't she suggested that he too should find someone. Genevive easily found willing men. Gavin should have just as successful a time finding women who could relieve his stress sexually. He didn't follow her wish for him to find a mate. Caught between love and danger., Genevive's history continues. Genevive began to frequent bars around the London burrows, choosing a different bar each time to ensure she wouldn't run into every man 'of the night' she slept with. Discriminatory, some nights she went home alone, while others she was lucky. Genevieve's style, natural animal prowess, and stamina caused her 'prey' to go wild wanting more. The times she met up with a one-night stand in a different bar, she refused their sexual advances. One warm night in early July of 2020, the pack leader decided to head to her favorite bar The Orchard Room for a night out with the other pack she-wolves, who never appeared. Pissed off, she began to drink. Across the room, she became enthralled with a handsome man (Landon) who was checking her out. They were mortal enemies, but they didn't realize it. Neither of them had an interest in any type of relationship, they mutually agreed to a one-night fling, no holes barred. Genevive takes Landon to the exclusive hotel, 'The London.' They enjoyed each other, in as many places as they could throughout the hotel. Not in a hurry to leave, they spent the morning together in different sexcapades. Giving each other a passionate kiss goodbye then two and three, they part. December, Genevive selects a new bar, almost bumping into Landon there. When their eyes connected they left for the hotel without a word, their eyes said it all. This night is more passionate. After hours of worshiping each other, she ordered a gallon of ice cream, spending the remaining hours talking. They feel the chemistry between them. After much discussion, the couple decides to have a clandestine affair, keeping their relationship hidden from her overprotective brother. One night, she chooses to run in the woods in her true form. Unaware, Landon is out hunting in the same vicinity, she shifts, while he watches. The next night, they meet for sex, long conversations, and the love they are beginning to feel for each other. Instead, Landon confronts her. Landon shares his truth, pointing out they are mortal enemies. Both of them feel betrayed vowing to never see each other again, anger filling their souls. Both are heartbroken, storming off in anger. In late July 2022, both of them end up at 'The Orchard Room' the bar where they originally met. Seeing each other, they are unable to deny their feelings. Deciding to talk they return to 'The Londer". Arguing all night, the passion they have for each other prevails. In the early morning, Landon takes her to bed. Cuddling afterward they decide to give their relationship a try. For three weeks, they meet nightly, learning neither one of them wants to handle being apart from the other, Landon moves to her room at the Londoner. Genevive joins him on August 11, 2022. She feels Gavin deserted her his lust for revenge greater than his love for his sister. This caused her to bond even more with her lover. Even though he is not a wolf, Genevive views him as her mate. Finally happy, she wants Gavin to be happy as well. Daily she encourages him to take a break from his 'mission,' to step out and finally find a mate. One February afternoon, while face timing Genevive, she notices a difference in her twin. He reveals that he met someone. Hearing the happiness in his voice, she wants to meet this mystery woman. Missing Gavin, she decides the two men she loves should meet each other. A trip to New Orleans is in order. Knowing Gavin's ire will be off the charts, Genevive counts on this newly founded excitement, and love will help ease the sting when she tells Gavin she's in love with a hunter.
