Chapter Two: Reborn

Thelma’s POV

“Wake up!” The silent voices echoed into my ears repeatedly, memories came flashing into my head as I woke up panting heavily.

I cleaned the beads of sweat from my face as I stared at my surroundings, “Where’s this? Where am I?” I thought in confusion.

Sighting my clock alarm, I realized I was in my room and it’s just morning yet.

I breathed in a sigh of relief, I must have been thinking a lot which resulted to a bad dream. I stood up, my head banging in pain.

How long have I been asleep?

My thoughts were interrupted when Yvonne came in, “Thelma, you can’t believe what I just overheard?” I raised my brow in confusion. Why does this sound familiar, my body shook at the thought of it being a dejavu.

Then she repeated the gesture, the gesture from my dream and that was when it clicked. I remembered it all. The memories and the pains screaming deep into my soul.

“I am reborn!” I whispered in shock, I took the calender beside my bed checking the date, “Jan 5,2020.” I exclaimed in shock.

“Why are you acting like you saw a ghost? Did you have a bad nightmare?” Yvonne came to my side, her worried face plastered on her face as she caressed my body.

“Stop…” I said gently but she didn’t, “I said stop.” I had no idea when I shouted. It was disturbing but now I saw through her fake facade, their fake facade.

Remembering what she said and what they did, I bolted my fist hard, I was angry, I am determined to make them all pay for what they did.

I looked up to see her staring at me shocked then her face turned teary, “Did I do anything wrong sis? You just shouted at me? Or don’t you want me anymore?” She asked.

It was impossible, I pinched my arm hard which made me winced in pain, it was real, not a dream, I have been given a second chance.

My mind was in denial, I wished I could attack her right now but I breathed in, trying to control the anger fuel in me before faking a smile.

“Why not? I am sorry, I just… you know, had a very terrible dream.” I shrugged.

She nodded, I knew she wasn’t very convinced judging by her expression so I added, “You know you are the best sister in the world and I love you so much.” I pecked her on the cheek and she giggled.

She stood up excitedly, her smile bright on her face but I was empty, if it was before, I’ll have been filled with joy but now all I could see was a facade.

A pretense that they all had while trying to use me, lure me as a prey that can be discarded when they are done.

“Guess what?” I cleared my throat as her voice bought me back to reality. I still couldn’t come to terms that I had been reborn.

“What could that be?” I asked faking cluelessness, this was how she asked me to guess in the previous life, she informed me about how dad decided to pass down the Luna title to me and he’ll be making Neon the alpha.

She looked around before gesturing for me to move closer as she whispered into my ear, “I overheard dad saying he want to crown you the next Luna to be for the pack, he’ll announce Neon to be your alpha. Don’t you think that’s great.”

I gasped, covering my mouth with my hand , “A joke?” I asked, she nodded negatively. I jumped up happily, “I’m so happy, I knew he’ll come to accept Neon to be with me.”

“Yes, you know how much dad loves you…” She paused as though she remembered something, “Oh my God, I forgot I have extra lessons again, mom will surely kill me.” She exclaimed, I gestured for her to leave.

In the previous life, I stupidly thought she truly had extra lessons but I know she didn’t, she must have gone to meet up with Neon.

I realized I was really reborn, my eyes was clouded with tears, who could have thought the same people I trusted most in life and thought they would always defend me were the same people that’ll betray me and cause my death.

I balled my fist in anger, I could easily confront them but not now, I’m not bothered with them because I have somewhere to be.

Since I am being given a second chance, then I will make use of it with brain, get my revenge and make everyone who ever hurt me pays.

I remember in the previous life, I ignored my bad feelings and never suspected anyone.

I stood up fully hurriedly dressing up into a simple black pant and crop top, before wearing my jacket then walked outside going towards dad suite.

I got there in no time and carefully opened the door a little bit, i know base on the sharp instinct of we werewolves, it wouldn’t be long before they find out I’m there so I masked up my scent.

Mom voice was the first to come in, “What if she finds out about them? You know being a Luna gives her access to everything about the pack.”

I was confused, which them was she talking about? “And that’s why I wouldn’t be announcing her as the Luna, I’ll announce Neon as the alpha instead then announce her as his fiancé…” He paused. “It’s up to him when to get married to her and do the proper rite and crown her as the Luna which wouldn’t be happening.”

I wonder how someone could be so cruel to their own daughter without blinking an eye. To the pack, I’m the most loved daughter of my parents but from the beginning, they only taught me how to become a great Luna and how to protect the pack, they’ve never really showered me with care like they did to Yvonne.

I was confused, I couldn’t find anyone to answer my question no matter how many times I ask myself.

“We still have to be fast with it , she could find out she isn’t…”

“She will never. If it wasn’t because it’s only her blood that can open the pack’s core and make us the strongest pack, do you think I’ll ever have to make her the Luna to be when our Yvonne is there.”

I staggered backwards, my eyes teary, I still don’t understand, why exactly do they hate me enough to want me dead.

“After we killed her parents, who could have expected they’ve put up a guard against us by making their only offspring the only one to open the pack core energy.”

The new revelation made me gasped in shock, my body colliding with the door, “They are not my parents.”

That would explain my question but I still couldn’t believe it, all my life, the same people I called mom and dad were the people who killed my real parents.

My hands trembled with my lips shaking, I never would have imagine this, even though they never really showed me they loved me, but they have never given me a reason to doubt them.

I clutched on my hands on my mouth as I stepped back slowly, my tears rolling down my cheeks. Without looking back, I crashed into the flower that was placed just beside their room door alerting them.

“Oh no!” I exclaimed, my heart racing as they both approached me, what will I do now?
