I stared at the open book on the floor with wide eyes. What just happened? How did I get it to open?Is this How easy it was for the book to open and I've been struggling all these while? I grabbed the book and stared at the drawing of a wolf on the first page. The drawing was very weird. At first, if I looked at it from afar, it looked like a picture of a regular werewolf but now that I have it closer to my face, it looks strange.The wolf was normal except that it was in silver and it had a very long tail with different colours like that of a female fox.It looks like a hybrid, the mixture of a female fox and a normal wolf but then why is the colour silver and not the usual brown or black?I shook my head and turned to stare at the floor wondering what it was that made the book open even when I'd been unable to open it.Does this mean that the ritual wouldn't be needed anymore? Maybe they were lying to me and acting like it was only a ritual that could get the book to open.Taking
Lilith? No, I'm mistaken. It can't be! I opened the next page and my jaw almost dropped. It was a picture of the Queen but what shocked me was the inscription under it and the picture next to hersThe wolf next to her was different from the other one on the previous page, actually, it was the image of the regular wolf that I was already aware of but the reason why my jaw almost dropped was because of the words written in red, "Cursed."Curious, I immediately turned to the next page and read through it, forcing myself to close My mouth at every single thing I read.My head felt so heavy and I almost fainted in fear as my hands were shaking.The things I Read scared me. The door suddenly burst open but I didn't look up to see who it was, I already knew who it was and I didn't feel like seeing him at that moment."Ember.." He called softly and ran towards me, his steps slowing down as he realized that I was holding the book and my hands were shaking."What's wrong, Ember?? Why did you
I felt heartbroken and no matter how hard I tried to stay strong for Ember, I couldn't. She finally opened the book despite the warnings I gave her and now she's..no, we are worried because finding out about herself means the curse will soon start occurring in her.My eyes strayed to the book countless times while she was talking with Rihanna and I felt drawn to it.The strength pulling me towards the book was so strong that I finally understood why she felt the urge to open it even when she knew that she was risking her own life just to know more.The curse.For the first time since I was born, I found myself cursing my lineage and hating my ancestors. if only they hadn't moved the moon goddess to curse Luna Sally's lineage, then maybe, Ember and I wouldn't have to face all these.But then again, a part of me acknowledged the fact that without them, Ember and I wouldn't have met. She was only drawn to me and I to her because of the curse and the duty she had to destroy my entire pack
I took her hand, evading her attraction, I ran out with Ember before the figure could get any closer and locked the door behind me.Many thoughts are in my head, she is transforming quickly as I hold her.I ran to a private room. “Ember, stay here for now, and please don't come out, no matter what, except I came here to pick you up myself.“ Ok, I will" she managed to reply her wolf was trying hard to get control of her, crawling long pawns.I quickly closed the door behind her, sprinting down to where the figure was. I could hear the sounds of her trying to break the door, but it seemed to be a hard nut for her to crack.Furthermore, I turned to see Rihanna walking towards me with great speed.“They are all over the pack now, we need to act fast,” she said, panting heavily.“Who?” I questioned with curiosity, the heavy battle the figure inside kept punching heavily onto the Iron door.“The rogues,” she said.I was taken aback, the prophecy had finally come.The enraged figure was abl
As soon as Sebastian left, I immediately felt the fear and nervous feeling I had washed over me again.I felt scared. What if something happens to him? What if she..?My tongue felt heavy in my heart and it was almost as if there was a heavy metal placed on it. To make it worse, I was struggling.The other part of me kept on trying to come out, fighting with me and the more I fought, the more I felt weak.It was almost as if the meditation, training and everything I did with Lana was suddenly going away, breaking apart.Please... please I pleaded aloud but to no one. I had no one else to talk to, to understand me other than Seb.A lot of questions were probably running through his head especially as he saw her. Did he see her? If he did, he didn't say anything about it for now, maybe when he comes back...if he comes back."Oh stop it!" I yelled aloud to myself as the thought of Sebastian losing his life kept on being painted in my head.A wave of dizziness suddenly washed over me and
Oh, no! She is back!What do you want from me again? I question taking steps backwards.She kept coming closer, staring at me. I don't feel ok with those stares.You destroy him and be by his side" she said.I cupped my ears with both hands.“Leave me, I'm not going to kill him,” I screamed.I was getting weak and needed to rest but here it isn't safe for me to.I would rather not destroy Sebastian, he wasn't the cause of the problem.“You must! That is the prophecy. Running away won't save you from that” she said again.I wanted to run away from her presence, but my weakness wouldn't let me.“Never! I can't kill the faster of my unborn child” I replied to her again breathing fast.I turned away from her to run for my dear life. All I wished for was that the hospital never made that mistake.Sebastian won't be suffering because of me, and neither will I be in this type of situation.The more I tried to run I could feel her around her voice kept echoing “You can't runaways from me, go
We all turned to look at Lana as she called Ember, expecting her to say something about the curse, but the look on her face said otherwise.“What's wrong, Lana?” I asked, already feeling the tension build up in me.What is it this time? I was already getting tired of everything.“Ember, aren't you feeling anything?” She asked, ignoring my questions.Ember looked confused and stared at her.“Like what? In my heart? Or… Oh. shit!” She exclaimed as she looked down on her body. “What's wrong, Ember?” I asked, panicking as I saw the look on both of their faces.She gasped softly and clutched my hand tight. Rihanna was already up on her feet and trying to find out what was going on.“What's wrong?!”“She's fighting within her, Sebastian,” Lana said softly as she stood up and tried to separate Ember's hands from mine.“What fight?” I asked as I still held on to her.Why on earth was she acting so relaxed? Almost as if she weren't concerned about what was happening.“Leave my hands, Sebastia
Hahaha, why should I leave her entirely? She is yet to accomplish the mission and until then, will I let her be free” the voice restored to me?“Watch out as I eliminate you from her entirely, now leave her to speak and stand for herself” I command.Just immediately, Ember was able to move back to her seat, where she was presently sitting.“You did it, yes you did,” Rihanna said to me with a joyous voice.I looked at her then at Lana, it was obvious both of them were shocked on how it happened.I don't even know how it happened, but I knew the courage came from nowhere.“Ember, are you fine now?” I asked, sitting beside her.I hold her hands and the paws have disappeared back.“Yes I am fine Sebastian” she replied.I was happy she responded.“Thank goodness she is back to normal, you see if she isn't pregnant, that creature won't be able to overpowered her and control her,” Lana explained as she took her seat.We need to train her more, Sebastian, so she can fight against that creatur
