Chapter 2: Curses

Arwenna groaned slightly from the bed. Her eyelids felt heavy, almost glued shut. But she forced them open, slowly ... gently, the room spun a little, making her feel nauseated. Everything looked blurry until it finally settled.

She tried sitting up, but it felt so hard to focus, so she started patting her head as if trying to wake her brain

"What happened to me?" Arwenna whispered.

Her eyes scanning through the room. The room looked nothing like hers, it was big... Impossibly large, almost as if it had no end. Her gaze landed on a weird statue staring right into her soul.

Arwenna blinked again, trying to steady her vision. For a moment, she thought her eyes were playing tricks on her until the shape moved.

Her breath hitched...

No, No, No, No

What in the world is happening? Was she going to die immediately after escaping her disgusting, predatory husband.

A sick feeling twisted in her stomach.

Her eyes widened. "....And worse --- on a bed.

"Oh Moon Goddess, I hope they don't think I was having an affair!" She muttered in rising panic

Her gaze snapped back towards the figure, and she could swear it moved. Her eyes weren't deceiving her. She pushed herself off the bed, only to be jerked back as something yanked her hand back. The chain dug into her skin.

"What the... How did this get on me? Arwenna stared at the chain, confused.

The figure move again. Closer. Definitely closer

The tall, overwhelming shape was almost towering over her. She tried to see its face. Before she could, it was there, charging at her at lightning speed.

Her heart pounded, she tried moving but remained frozen; she couldn't move at all. It was getting closer, too close...

It lunged

"Ahhhhh! Arwenna screamed, and a bucket of water landed on her body. She rose up, breathing heavily.

"You woke up bitch" Denise scoffed dropping the bucket

"Huh? what do you mean" Arwenna muttered blinking as she looked around

"Oh please". Jeff rolled his eyes. "Don't act all clueless after showing your true colors earlier"

Arwenna chuckled, her gaze flicking between the three ridiculous siblings staring at her like dirt.

"So after I revealed your father's disgusting secret -- how he kept shoving his dick into his maids mouth --- I'm the bad guy now"Arwenna clenched her fists.

"What about Edina, Huh?".

"Oh that Motherfucking Bitch?". Denise grinned widely. "She would be in the bellies of my beautiful babies soon, with her bones crushed to pieces".

"We are deeply disappointed" Gavin the eldest finally spoke, breaking his long silence. "Your act of unruliness earlier....

"Disappointed?" Arwenna laughed. "You mean you're embarrassed that the whole werewolf pack will get to know the honorable Prime minister of the Vihgua Clan died a freak" Arwenna smirked

"Shut the Fuck up, bitch!" Jeff snarled and grabbed Arwenna by the throat

Arwenna didn't look away. She stared directly into his eyes, her expression calm...too calm

"I have warned Jeff", She whispered. "Countless times have I told you, never to grab me by my throat. I might be Omega but I ain't that weak".

Her grin spread slowly

Jeff suddenly screamed, clutching his head as if something exploded in his skull. He threw punches blindly, slamming into the wall.

"Get out of my fucking head" He screamed.

He grabbed a nearby maid and began chocking her--- rage driven, hallucinating, and lost. Gavin rushed towards him but he was shoved off like nothing. Jeff crushed the maid brutally before collapsing back to himself, dazed and horrified.

Arwenna stood up, her voice cold.

"Do you know which specie this maid came from?". Arwenna stepped closer. She was a Shadeborn, a special kind of specie from the Banshee bloodline".

Jeff's eyes froze, his eyes wide in terror as his gaze flicked from the corpse back to Arwenna.

"You know what that means right". Arwenna patted his cheeks. "She'll come for you... To destroy your soul. To deform it. To make sure you never, ever rest ".

"My dear boy, you should have never tried going against me". Arwenna smoothed his hair.

"Don't touch him", Denise screamed shoving Arwenna away from Jeff who seemed completely lost.

"You've gone completely insane." Gavin stared at Arwenna in complete shock. "You used your Umbral instincts against your own Family. "

"Family?" Arwenna chuckled darkly. "Now I'm family after all the disgusting things you and your father did to me"She held Gavin's gaze. "I wish you died with him"

"Enough" Denise screamed. "We are done listening to your nonsense. You are going back to Alverda where you belong--- To pack your masters shit since you're so ungrateful".

She grabbed Arwenna by the hair and dragged her out of the room. When they reached the living room, she threw Arwenna to the ground like nothing but a piece of thrash

"The guards will be here to take you to your filthy Clan". Denise spat. "You'll be lucky if they let you keep your head on your shoulders when they drag you off. Don't think this changes anything". The guards soon arrived with ropes in their hands

"Make sure she gets to Alverda.... Useless" Denise ordered with a twisted grin. You never had a place here and you never will " Denise growled

"Out of our sight, Bitch!" Denise spoke as guards seized her and dragged her away

"I curse you till eternity House of Quintt, your generation will survive nothing and your offsprings will suffer for your Sins". Arwenna muttered loudly enough for everyone to hear

Denise laughed waving as Arwenna was dragged off

"You and your gold digger Aunt should also burn in hell with Lucifer".

"Oh no sweetie," Arwenna whispered a strange smile curving her lips

"You will rot in hell long before I do"
