Freya
I was laying on the cold floor waiting for what will the pack warriors who captured me will gonna do next. The four of them were just standing outside this tight cage that stinks, though it's not new to me to be put in a horrible and stinky place. A minute had passed and I still haven't heard anyone of them talking but I noticed them looking at each other as if they're having a conversation through their mind link. I saw the leader of the pack warriors nodding and I can't help but gulp because I was thinking that maybe they're talking about ways on how to torture me."Be nice rogue, you're lucky that you still have a day to cherish your dear life." The leader of the pack warriors said and then he grinned softly at me as if he was amused to see me inside this small cage with the other rogues they had caught.After a while, the pack warriors came out of the cellar, I slowly got up and leaned on the wall of this small cage as I was trying to think of anything that could help me escape this place. This time, no Kendrick is helping me escape and somehow it makes me doubt myself that I'll ever get a chance to get out of this place."Hey what's up?" I turned around when I heard someone whispering. I saw a woman who looks a few years older than me, she was staring at me as if she was trying to memorize my features and somehow it makes me feel uncomfortable."Um, hey!" I respond to the woman hesitantly. I don’t know if I should talk to the other rogues in here. Everyone knows that trusting a rogue is suicide, because the moment you let your guard off, they'll gonna dug their sharp claws down your throat."I'm Elena, what's your name?" The woman said introducing herself to me. I can't help but feel very suspicious with this woman named Elena because she was smiling at me as if she wasn't aware that we're both a prisoner and we're inside this small cage that a baby can only fit. I can't find any single reason why I should be smiling right now, our situation right now is not fucking funny."F-Freya," I replied in a low voice. I couldn’t help but frown at the sight of a wide smile plastered on her lips."Why are you smiling?" I asked her with raised brows. I just can't understand why she still managed to smile like this knowing that any moment from now, the pack warriors will gonna barge and take us somewhere where they're torturing the rogues."Nah, I'm just surprised that you talk back. I've been here since last night and these rogues around us don't talk no matter how hard I tried to initiate a conversation. I guess they're just pretty exhausted with all the beatings and tortures." Elena replied and I couldn't help but swallow my saliva when I heard her say the word torture. I look around the cellar and true enough, the rogues around here looks so beaten, their eyes were swollen, and they got fresh bruises on their lips and cheeks."H-How about you?" I ask her out of curiosity. I was looking at Elena and unlike the other rogues, she looks fine and it seems that the pack warriors haven't done anything to her."What about me?" Elena asked instead of answering my question."What have they done to you since they caught you?" I asked Elena again, I heard her take a deep breath and then she slowly lifted the white t-shirt she was wearing, she got a lot of muds in her white shirt that the color of her shirt became dirty white."Oh my god," I covered my mouth and my eyes widened in disbelief when Elena showed me the back of her body, it was full of fresh wounds and I can feel the pain that Elena endured just by looking at her wounds. I couldn't help but feel sorry for what those fucking pack warriors has done to Elena, but apart from pity, fear slowly creeps over my body, especially with the thought that any moment from now I would face the same fate with Elena or maybe I'll get worse than her."You're healing so slowly, Elena," I commented when I noticed that her wounds weren't healing, one of the perks of being a werewolf is that we can easily heal our wounds. Elena just shrugged her shoulder as he took down her shirt and turned around to face me again."That's because I wasn't born a werewolf," Elena answered me in a low voice that feels like she was just whispering. As if she didn't want the other rogues to hear what she just confess to me."What do you mean you weren't born a werewolf?" I asked her with a confused face, I have no idea what she was talking about."I was originally a witch, my mother is the leader of a pagan religion that practices witchcraft and she's been practicing this spell on how to turn our kinds into a werewolf. She first used that spell on me, we thought it was successful but it wasn't." Elena told me and I was just looking at her with a raised brow, I was contemplating on whether to believe her or not. I could hardly believe the story that she just told me because as far as I know, witches don't exist anymore."You're kidding, right? Witches don't exist, I mean not for decades now." I replied to Elena and fake a laugh. Maybe she's just bored or maybe she just wants to think that she is a half-witch or maybe she just want to somehow escape the harsh reality that we're facing now."That's a bit ironic to say, werewolves exist so what makes you think that witches don't anymore?" Elena asked me. I just shake my head, only the witches and the vampires we're exiled for reasons still unknown to everyone, that's why werewolves still exist."Yeah, and maybe vampires still exist too," I told her and I can't help but raise my eyebrows when I saw her nod in response."Stop fooling around, Elena. There's no such thing as witches and vampires, as far as I know, they're long gone." I said to her, there's no way I'm going to believe everything that she just shoved in my brain. My mom told me the story about the witches and the vampires, until now it is still a mystery if there's still anyone left of their kind."Not totally gone, you'll be surprised how many witches are still in the coven," Elena said to me and I don't know if she is just a great actress because the way she delivered her story makes me want to believe her so bad."If you're a witch, then why don't you heal yourself? Why don't you use your magic to escape this prison?" I asked Elena question after another and I was suddenly taken aback when suddenly there was a gleam of sadness in her eyes but it was only for a second before her expression went completely blank."When my mother turned me into a werewolf, our ancestors got mad at me to the point where they forbid me into using my magic ever again. I'm now a cast-out witch and I can only turn into a werewolf during the full moon. I'm basically nothing right now." Elena replied sadly. I can see in the expression on Elena's face that she seems to be telling the truth but with all the bad things I've been through, I'm having a hard time trusting and believing anyone's story."I don't know why you're telling me this, Elena. That information can't help us escape this prison." I complained and kicked the door of this small cage praying that the cage will magically unlock.I can't help but feel a little discouraged at this moment. I thought I already had it, my freedom."I also don't know why I'm telling you this, maybe because I just want to talk to someone today. I don't want to die without telling someone my little secret." Elena replied to me and I heard her take a deep breath as she leaned on the wall of her cage.Elena didn't talk to me again. I didn't even bother to talk to her again because I'm just so fucking exhausted with everything that happened to me.Michael"Alpha Michael, I thought you and Lincoln were coming home tomorrow?" Henry – the leader of the crescent moon pack warriors asked me. Henry is not the strongest of all my warriors but he is the smartest and that is the only reason why I appointed him as the leader of my pack warriors. I know that when it comes to a real battle, having strong warriors is not enough, we also need brains that can make a solid plan when it comes to battles and wars or when our pack is under attack. Coincidentally, Henry graduated from the National Military Academy. The truth is Henry and I graduated together at the National Military Academy, I achieved the highest honor while Henry in turn achieved the fifth highest honor."Kayden postponed the meeting since they're preparing the Mystic River for Morgan and his pack's burial," I respond to Henry as I walk into the packhouse, he was walking alongside me."Yeah, I heard what happened to Alpha Morgan's pack," Henry spoke
Michael"What do you mean it's bad news, Michael? We're talking about my mate here in case you forgot." Maddox said as he knocked on the door, I couldn’t help but sigh as I went to the door and open it only to be met by Maddox's glaring eyes."What do you want me to do, Maddox? Look, I am happy for you that you finally found your mate but that's the only thing I can do for you, being happy." I said to Maddox and I was about to close the door again when he suddenly blocked his foot preventing me from closing the door. He was frowning at me as if he was starting to get annoyed with my presence, but it only took him a minute before his expression went calm."There's something that you can do for me, alpha Michael," Maddox said calmly and I can't help but raise my brows when I heard him call me alpha. Just like Lincoln, I consider Maddox as my brother since we're classmates from grade school to college, we've been friends since we're babies that it makes me un
MichaelIt's been almost ten minutes since Maddox went to the cellar to get his mate but until now he still hasn't come back. I don’t know what Maddox is up to right now that it’s taking him too long to get back. I can't help but wonder if Maddox decided to just flee away with his mate, but if he's thinking about running away from the pack then he should have done that yesterday when I wasn't still here.>Maddox.>Promise me you're not gonna do anything to my mate, Michael.
Michael"You're up to something, Michael. What the hell are you doing? You're taking my mate back to the cellar, that's so fucking gentleman of you, should I say thank you?" Maddox said loudly after Elena came out of my office, the tone of his voice was full of sarcasm which made my jaw tense as I was starting to get annoyed hearing him accusing me of doing something sinister to his mate."I'm not going to do anything that will harm your mate, Maddox. Calm your fucking tits now because I'm starting to get a headache listening to you whining and accusing me." I replied to him and then got up from sitting in my swivel chair."As you always claim, Michael, you loathe the rogues so much so you can't blame me for thinking so badly of you now. Why are you insisting on taking my mate back to the cellar, I can do that. In fact, I'm taking my mate to my suite now." Maddox said firmly and he was about to walk out of my room but I immediately stopped him."T
Michael"You're a hybrid?" Elena asked me and I can see the shock on her face. I already expected that she would immediately react this way the moment I told her that my mother was a witch."I'm not a hybrid, Elena. It's against the law of nature to be both, you can only either be a witch, vampire, or werewolf." I replied to her causing her to raise an eyebrow at me."But I'm a hybrid, I am a witch and werewolf now." I just smirked at Elena when I heard what she just said. She's a fool if she believes that she's now a hybrid. I still think that the spell cast on her is broken because the moment she turned into a werewolf, she immediately becomes a rogue."You're not really a werewolf, Elena. You're a witch and whatever spell your mother cast on you will have an agonizing effect on your body. You're so naive for letting your mother treat you as a lab rat, you're in a dangerous situation right now whether you believe me or not, Elena." I told her ca
Michael"You sounded like you know my mother," I said to Elena with a suspicious tone of voice as I stared at her shocked expression. I could see her gulping and the shock in her face was slowly replaced with fear as she keep on staring intently at the picture that I keep beside my mother's gravestone."There's no way I am channeling the magic of your mother, she is one of the strongest witches back then. She's one of the originals." Elena responded to me in a trembling tone of voice. I couldn’t help but frown when I heard what she just said. I have no idea what she's talking about, she sounded like she is horrified at the thought of channeling my mother's magic."The originals? What do you mean by that? How can you say that my mother is an original?" I asked Elena with furrowed brows, I heard her take a deep sigh."This is insane, I think it's better if you just bring me back to the cellar, Michael," Elena said instead of answering my question. M
Michael"Bastiana's children are the original vampires, she vowed not to witness any of her children get killed again by the witch hunters so she turned them into a vampire. The original vampires can't be killed and they said that they're still out there, disguising themselves, sucking blood on the streets. That's how powerful your mother is, Michael." Elena said and I can't help but feel frustrated with my mother and my father. Why would they hide these things from me and Lincoln? My mother has had a family before and I have brothers and a sister aside from Lincoln. If Elena is indeed telling the truth, it looks like my mother has a lot of secrets that she's still trying to hide from me and Lincoln."What happened to the original vampires? Why did my mother leave them? She never told me and Lincoln we have other siblings." I asked Elena question after another but she just shrugged her shoulder and didn't seem to know the answers."I don't know, that is ev
Michael"I need another white candle and a cauldron, Michael," Elena commanded me in a trembling tone of voice. I can see past her expression the mixture of nervousness and apprehension as she stares at the candle at each end of the star that she draws inside the huge circle. Elena is still having second thoughts if she's doing the right thing despite knowing that my mother lit up the candles which means she's okay with Elena channeling her magic."White candle and a cauldron," I said repeating what Elena just said. I immediately went to the cabinet and open the drawer where I saw the small cauldron and then I also get another white candle. I handed the cauldron and the white candle to Elena without asking what she will do with all those things. I must say witches are really fond of candles and anything that has creepy vibes on it.After Elena got the cauldron and the white candle, I saw her pull out a few strands of her hair, and then she put it inside th
