Embrace It Or Erase It

Tina POV

I woke up this morning and I couldn't believe what was happening.

The strong scent of the Ocean and mixed berries was nearly choking me. Is that woman here? How when am so sure I put her to sleep for good. What's happening.? Who is the intruder? This scent is more pronounced.

In fact, it's totally engulfed me. I summon my power. Just a fraction of it to ensure that I don't reveal who I really am. When I get out of my bedroom, I'm shocked to note that the scent is coming from Summer's room.

"SUMMER!!!"

"Get your lazy, ugly, good for nothing ass down here right now!!!!"

I literally scream the whole place down. She must have woken up with a start and I see her coming down in a t-shirt and jogger pants. The moment she reaches the kitchen, forgetting that I'd activated a part of my strength, I hit her straight into the gut.

The impact caused her to fall. She hits her head on the counter and I can smell blood.

"Tell me right now, why the hell you'd conceal something like that you stupid girl!?

Tell me right now!"

I see panic and confusion in her eyes so I elaborate. She also tried to speak but it was barely audible. In my anger, I don't even notice the stupid girl drifting into unconsciousness.

"Ma-ma P-please"

I don't give her a chance. I lash out again.

"Oh, so you think you can shift early and hide it from us your family?"

Again I see the confusion. What's going on? Is she totally oblivious to all these or she's just feigning ignorance. I noticed that she's fainted and I panic a bit.

Damnit! I had no intention of hurting her where it's visible to everyone. Don't mistake that for compassion. I despise her and nothing will change that. I just don't want anyone snooping around into my business. Otherwise, my cover will be blown before I accomplish my mission.

Argh!! I groan in anger as I rush to the pack doctor concocting a convincing lie. As I draw near the pack hospital, carrying the almost limp so-called daughter of mine, I activate my acting skills. Instantly tears start flowing down my cheeks in torrents. I appear haggard like a really depressed and anxious mother.

" Doc .. Hic, P-please save m-my Baby!!"

"What happened here, Tina? Please calm down. We'll be able to save her. It is but a minor injury. Nothing scary for a child with werewolf genes. Summer is almost 16 so her healing is super fast. Please don't fret my dear. Leave it to me."

Doc Boyce assured me in a gentle tone.

"She - She, Oh my poor baby!"

I sob even harder that I get hiccups. Dr Boyce sees how distraught I am and does not probe any further. They quickly take Summer from me and I Make a scene to portray a really possessive mother character. I giggle internally and still keep up my acting.

"Doctor, please. I implore you to do your best to save my poor baby. She slipped off the stairs and hit her head. I don't even know why I had to mop early before they all left for school."

"Relax Tina. It's all under control. "

Doc assures me but I clutch her tightly like the loving mother that I am.

I then allow them to take her after a bit of coaxing from Dr Boyce.

"There there Tina. Allow us to take her into the resuscitation room before it's too late. You wouldn't want anything bad to happen to your baby now would you??"

Reluctantly, I let go of her, all this while sobbing.

After a while, Boyce returns and informs me that she had suffered a concussion which is almost completely healed. However, she is not showing signs of waking up which is kind of weird. He says that it's not a big deal. She can take a few hours but the maximum is 4 hours to wake up.

Also, she might be her own reason why she's stuck in her unconscious world. Maybe there can be issues she doesn't want to address in real life that she finds easier to handle in that bubble she's created. I sob bitterly and promise to be there till she regains consciousness. He gives me a hug and sends his assistant to inform our alpha who is also my husband's twin. Husband dearest is not there so Luke has to be informed. Both as the alpha and dad's brother.

Unbeknownst to them, my reason for staying by Summer's side is more sinister than they could ever imagine. Since she is unconscious, she is more vulnerable. I still want to know why all of a sudden, her scent and that oppressive and forbidding aura she was exuding before, just vanished now. The other reason is, that I have to erase the memory of what transpired before she fainted. As well perform a spell that imparts into her mind, my own made-up memories.

So far it has worked. Levi hasn't even discovered yet that I beat up his most adored princess. Hahaha, the day he discovers it, he'll literally faint. Not that I intend to open his eyes. No siree, not yet. The mission is far from over. Sigh, This acting is so energy draining.

SUMMER POV

I keep seeing a lot of confusing episodes. It's like I am time travelling in my unconscious state.

I see myself as a young child. I am baffled by how mama dear has always treated me. How come I thought all this only started when I was 14? How come daddy never found out? Wait a minute. This can't be real. It has to be only my mind playing tricks on me. I just can't fathom how all this could be true when in real life I am certain I never experienced such torture. Argh, why can't I just wake up already!?

"Hola mi niña"

" Whaaaat!!!! Who is that? And what language is that.?"

Hold on a minute. Why am I even hearing this voice? It's crazy. I cork my head to the side and concentrate again. The voice was like a whisper but melodious.

"He-llo. Is somebody here with me?"

I ask timidly. Not sure if I really want to know. Sigh.

"Estoy tan feliz de finalmente conocerte mi hijo."

Crap! There is someone here and I so wish I had a phone in this bubble so I could refer to Dr g****e.

I am convinced it's Spanish. why didn't I just take the Spanish lessons? Grr... I groan inwardly.

"Hahaha, mi amo. You do know that I can understand you right? In fact, I am a part of you. I can read your thoughts. Disculpa por mi acento. But I truly am happy to finally meet you, my child. deary do close that mouth you look hilarious.!"

Ok, guys. I am creeped out here! I am a werewolf and should not be but this is totally new. Who is this gentle foreigner?

"Yo soy tu lobo. I'm your wolf dear child."

The voice spoke gently and instantly a bright light illuminated the whole place and I am forced to close my eyes.

"Abre los ojos querida niña"

Urgh! Again with the Spanish gibberish?

I literally yell internally. The voice laughed but it was so soothing you could mistake it for a lullaby.

"Open your eyes, dear child."

I do as instructed and lo and behold, right in front of me stands the most magnificent and majestic pure white wolf I've ever seen or heard of.

It has a mane like that of a horse. Ocean blue eyes that looked at me with utmost love, and care.

To say am stupefied is an understatement. I shamelessly gawk at this beautiful creation without holding back at all.

"Ven y siéntate niña. We have little time and a lot to discuss. But first I need you to decide whether you embrace it or you'd rather erase everything you've just seen?"

" Your decision will determine what I will have to prepare you for."

She pauses briefly and carries on.

" If you want to embrace it, remember that you'll relive all the painful memories that had been locked away. You will know that which was hidden from you. You will be subjected to negativity but you have to rise above it all against all odds. If you eras...."

"No! I will embrace everything. I have questions and need answers. Oh wolfie dear I am no coward. I am ready for whatever comes."

"Then brace yourself, dear child, for this is how it all started.."
