Chapter 7: Legend of the Ancient Hybrid Reaper
My lips turned into a grim line when heard that voice, it was the same small irritating voice that cursed me. I turned around and saw her smiling ear to ear. "Hello! Do you miss me?" She played with her hair and blinked two times. "Laia, this is not good anymore, undo the curse now. How can you walk unbothered around when you know that someone died because of you and someone was lying in bed helpless because of what you did." She instead laughed crazily. "My fault?" She pointed to herself while giving me an unbelievable look. "Isn't yours? You are the reason for their misery. You caused all the trouble, Kylo suffered because of you, all stress of what you did while you stay here lying in bed like a Queen when you are to blame!" "You curse me! You ruined everything, we should be living in peace if you are not insecure-" I fell on my knees when I suddenly couldn't breathe. She was already holding my neck and I couldn’t breathe. "Shut up, I am not insecure! You stole him from me! I am his mate, not you, you poisoned his mind to marry you instead of you!" She let go of me and pushed me down. "I and Kylo were bounded by the moon goddess, it was confirmed when I first shift." She angrily faced me, "what do you mean?" "You don't know that since you are a rouge! When a werewolf transformed for the first time, they'll smell their mate if they were near you." Her face turned very angry. "No! I have not shifted yet so I didn't smell him as my mate and you took him first before I could! You deserve to be locked in here!" "Please, Laia, I am begging you. I can tell him to leave me and choose you instead. I just want my mother back. My father has not visited me here yet, I am so worried. The pack is in danger now, the neighboring pack is planning to attack us and our army was not well because of the curse. You love Kylo, right? Will you be happy if he loses his pack? Will you be happy seeing him grieving for his dead pack members? "I am not like you who can not jump off the cliff for him even if he was doing everything for you." She rebutted, which hit me more than it seemed. "Then undo the curse, I promise to give him to you. Please undo the curse." She stared at me and softly smiled. "I cannot undo the curse but I know how to end it. Did you ever hear about the ancient hybrid reaper?" She asked with a smile on her face. "I don't know about that." "They say, he was the half-werewolf half-vampire reaper. His mother was a traitor and sold her life to the vampire and he was their child. Vampires are immortal making him immortal too and only immortal werewolves. He was too powerful and he became destructive after his mother's death. He was killing endlessly so the werewolves asked the witch's help and cursed him to be chained in his house, he may break the chain he can never leave his place." "What about him?" "But he is dead, and his grave became the wishing place. Since he was powerful enough, anything you wish, you would say that while pouring the blood of a virgin on his grave, after that you chant the incantation." How can I trust her when she wants me to die? "Everyone is prohibited to do that since his power involves dark magic as curses. This is the only way other than you killing yourself, Lavelle." I was left speechless, I need to hold on to that legend. We were running out of time. I heard him approaching and Laia did too. "Don't ever mention this to him. The wish should be an inner wicked desire for him to grant it. If someone would know about your plan, nothing will happen." She vanished after saying that. I sat on my bed and looked down at my hand. Should I believe her? Witches were tricky. I almost squealed when I heard a loud crash of the glass breaking. I cover my mouth not to make any noise and listened to his countless curses under his breath. He was mad, very mad I hope I knew why. "My Alpha," I whispered; not that sure if was it a good thing to do. "Velle." I didn't know if he refused to address me as his Luna or if he forgot to. "What is the matter?" "Do I have to answer that?" He sounded greatly frustrated that I have nothing to do. " I closed my eyes and my tears fell carelessly down to my face. 'Do not worry my Alpha, I will do the right thing to end this misery of us.' I waited for him to calm down and leave the house. It was dark and my hand was trembling in nervousness. I got my moron cape and carefully slide out of the house. I broke into the clinic where the unconscious pack members were taken care of. I got a bottle and a knife with me. I only need blood, I didn't kill her. I carefully slit her wrist and rich red blood came out so I filled my bottle with it. I was about to cover her wrist when she stopped breathing. I froze and felt my throat dry in fright. What did I do? I ran out of the room and escape to the woods. My guilt was suffocating me and I stumbled onto a rock that I didn't see. I fell to the ground and dropped the bottle. I looked at my hands it was full of blood. It was shaking, shaking in fear. " I killed her." My whisper felt a sharp dagger strike my heart. My tears kept falling but I got to be going. I stood up and shifted, I ran to his grave. When I get there I saw a huge gate, it was rusty and old, weeds has climbed to it and I saw it slightly opened. I carefully entered the gate, I found myself shaking in fear looking at the creepy house made of stone, the place was full of dried leaves and the door was made of metal. It was a huge house with all gray color, grasses had taken all over but died and brown. I took a step after taking a long deep breath. I twisted the doorknob and look inside. It was so dark but there was light from about in the middle where a gravestone lies. That must be his grave. I walked to it and saw the long rectangular gray stone. There were carvings on its lines and curves like words that I couldn't recognize. I poured the blood on it and when the blood filled the carved lines it lightened up and letters started floating from the gravestone, I waited for it to arrange itself. Until I could already read it. "Lords of Immortals, grant my wish, I wish to end the curse and wake all my pack members. Lords of Immortal wake up thy unconscious and bring their life back- AHHH!" My sharp squeal echoed in the room when a flash of lightning suddenly struck the grave. I stepped back and ran out of the place. I shifted and ran faster while the thunder was making me want to cry out loud. Even if my lungs run out of air I persist to run and run back to the pack. I ran faster than I usually do, not caring I might fall. I slow down when I saw all of them waiting for me. I shifted back and wiped my tears, I felt like my sacrifices has paid off. I small smile crept on my face but I instantly dropped when I saw their faces. They looked so angry and cold. I walked closer and saw the only one smiling who was not supposed to be standing next to my mate. "She's here, the fake saint has returned with her victory smile." "What are you talking about, Laia?" "You killed an innocent girl, Velle! You planned this all along. You want to kill every beautiful girl in your pack not wanting Kylo might replace you as his mate." I harshly turned to my mate who was looking at me. "You believe her? She cursed me! You should be capturing her and making her undo the curse. She was trying to poison your minds with lame reasons." "Explain the blood on your hand." My gaze fell on my hands. I shook my head and looked at him in disbelief. "How can you trust her instead of me? I am your mate!" I felt so helpless looking into his eyes. They were so cold and deadly. "Fake saints are worst than villains, indeed." "Shut up, Laia! You set me up, you said this is the only way to cut the curse." I pointed to her and my finger didn't help to shake in anger. I faced Kylo, who I caught looking at my hand or maybe our ring coated with blood. "Kylo, believe me. Laia secretly sneaked into my room and convinced me to do it, she said it was the only way to cut the curse.Chapter 8: Rise, My Queen, "DO WHAT! VELLE!" He shouted when I failed to answer quickly. "Pour blood on the grave of the Ancient Hybrid Reaper." "She believes in dark magics and dark ritual?" Laia asked and shook her head. "No! Kylo, believe me. You know me well, I can not do such a thing, we grew up together for goddess sake." I kneeled and clasped both my palm looking at him. "Do not believe her, please." "Did you kill Mira?" My breath hitched when he asked that. I saw Laia nod next to him. "She did." I looked back at him and saw that he was eyeing me straight like he was trying to look through my soul. "Answer me, Velle." "I didn't mean to." Like rain, tears fell from my eyes out of fear. "DID YOU KILL HER? DID YOU KILL A PACK MEMBER, VELLE? ANSWER ME!" I nodded... "Kill her." My breath stopped hearing him say that, I looked up at him and saw the cold and stone face of my mate mercilessly ordered to eliminate myself. "No! I am your mate, Kylo!" I felt weak to fi
Chapter 9: Unexplainable Fury"Kill them." I froze when he whispered that. It may be too much, we could make them pay without killing them. He realized that I was confused about why I had to kill them. "I think that is too much, we shouldn't kill anyone." His eyes went down to my body and held my waist. He took a long deep breathe and guide me into the house- Was it even a house? It looked haunted placed made by huge stones with a cave-like doorway. He opened it and it was all dark inside. "Don't be afraid." He pulled me inside and my eyes adjusted in the dark. We walked further and I saw a throne-like chair in the middle. "Why do you think killing is too much?" He calmly asked. "Killing is not right." "What makes killing not right?" "...Ending lives is cruel and...hurtful making it not the right thing to do." "Isn't it what we want to do? To be cruel and to make them suffer as they did to us. I want to hurt them. Killing is the best thing to do, to prove that you are not
Chapter 10: Meeting the AlphaToo cold and too dark, where I found myself. The room was empty and lonely, why does it feel heavy in this house? Darkness around seemed wrong for me yet fit well in the atmosphere. I couldn’t seem to rest in this kind of it felt irrevocable. “You’re awake,” I turned my head to the left and saw him sitting beside the window, I couldn’t see his face caused of the light coming from it. I could only see his silhouette, and he was crossing his arm. “Sorry, I didn’t know you here.” He probably noticed I was awake, yet I didn’t move. He only stood up and I was following his every move. “They’re here.” Who? “You might want to welcome our guests.” He said and walked to the door. “Who are they?”“You knew them more than I.” He answered and left me thinking. “I don’t remember anything.” What happened to me the day before yesterday? I almost pulled my hair when it felts like breaking. I couldn’t remember anything. I didn’t realize that until now, I was t
Chapter 11: Unpleasant Visitor“Are you still mad?” I asked. There was no response so I thought it would be better to skip that. Should not trigger him more. “I don’t want you to cry.” He let go of me and looked me in the eye. I hurriedly wiped my leaving no trace of tears. “Don’t ever feel pity for anything, don’t ever feel weak emotion.” I nodded and put in my fierce emotion. Glee was undeniable when he tried to comfort me, yet he didn’t want to see me cry again, that he meant he didn’t want to comfort me. “You have killed enough number of his army; they would suffer for too much loss. You can do anything you want around.” He said and left the room, I tight smile drew on my face even if I knew he did not see it. Disappointment killed the light in me, I was expecting more. I thought we could cuddle, or he would stay longer to make sure I’m okay. I walked to my bed and sat there, I took a pillow and dropped my back in bed hugging it. I still wonder, who am I? Aside from bein
Chapter 12: Newly WedHe stopped and nodded. “Luna means mate of an Alpha.”“You mean that man who want me dead, was my mate?” I asked. “NO! I am your mate, but your parents don’t want me to be your mate because I am caged in here. Your father is the beta of your pack, a blind man who obeys his Alpha than listening to his daughter. They forced you to marry the soon-to-be Alpha and the day you marry him; you became the Luna, and he became the Alpha.” “He wants me dead because he already got what he wants, the title.” I continued; I knew he would say that. He nodded to confirm my thoughts. “Why did they have to do that?” “They want me to suffer,” he was eating casually my heart felts breaking to hear that. “I will make them suffer instead.” I unconsciously said. “You have only me, everyone turned their back on you. We only have each other.” I nodded. I understand. He suddenly stood and offer his hand to me. “Are you willing to seal your faith to me?” My jaw literally fell
Chapter 13: My Special Ability I was stunned by what I have said, it only made the atmosphere awkward. I saw him gulp and looked away. “Come on,” I still insisted.“Just once,” I almost squealed hearing that. “Okay,” he looked back at me. I looked straight but I felt like drowning under his stares. I closed my eyes and took a huge breath and stared straight into his eyes. I thought of making him freeze. After a little while, he didn’t move and continued looking at me. “Did it work?” There was no response, so I touched him, “Zild.” He remains unmoved, and slowly, a smile crept on my lips. “It worked!” I hugged him in happiness, and he didn’t move. After a few seconds, he didn’t move still, and I started to worry. “How to undo?” I asked him and he only looked at me like a stone. “Holy shit!” I bit my lower lip while trying to think how to undo it. What happened to that snake? I only blinked and he was out of my control. “Zild!” I tried shaking him, but it was useless. “Oh
Chapter 14: His Sweet LiesHe stared at me for a long as if he was trying to figure out whether I was serious or not. “Why would you feel like that?” He asked and held my hand. “I don’t know, maybe I was expecting more, or I used to be very loved now you feel like you were so cold to me.” “What should I do?” “I DON’T KNOW! How will I know when I couldn’t even remember how old I am.” He pulled me into a hug, “Maybe you are right, I am cold and barely know you. They kept you away from me, they made you believe that he was your mate. You grew up with him and everyone expect you to be the Luna, they treated you like a Luna, and your parents told you to pretend as they say. Yes, we barely knew each other. But we were bound as mates by the moon goddess.” He touched my chin and made me face him. “I was cursed to be caged in here, I was not able to fight for you outside of my territory.” I nodded in response. “Ask me anything you want to know.” “Who am I?” “The daughter of
Chapter 15: What Ifs Zild suddenly appeared next to me, he placed his arm on my shoulder. I saw how his eyes trying to burn his shoulder. “Making sure someone belongs to me is safe.” Kylo bravely answered. He was confident only because Zild could not cross the boundary. “None in my territory belongs to anyone, Kylo.” He knew that he’d not get the favor of the situation, so he turned his back. “I know who you are, Zild. As long as you can’t cross the boundary, I know she still belongs to me.” He said and slid his hand into his pocket. He tilted his head to look at Zild once more before walking out of our sight. “What was he talking about?” “He probably read legendary stories about me. Rumors are rumors and I have no control over what might fantasies they’d add to my life to make their story fascinating.” My blood boils how unacceptable it was. “They dare to do that?” He shrugged his shoulder in response. “Yeah, they’d been so bold to disrespect me. You might want to vi
