MY WEREWOLF DESTINY

Sophia

“How did I get myself here?"

I remember sleeping on my bed in my room but now I am in a thick dark forest surrounded by trees and howling wild animals, I try to search for an escape route but it keeps on leading me back to the same spot.

"Somebody help me" I screamed out loud but I guess it was not enough "Is anybody there" I screamed again" and got no response.

In no time I saw two wild animals fighting, I took cover behind a huge tree so that they wouldn't notice me and use me for their next meal.

"Why are you doing this Cecilia?" The howling and the groaning had stopped and what I could hear now was a human male voice.

I guess I was too busy trying to take cover from the wild animals that I did not notice when they turned to human beings, "wait, how did they just switch to humans?" I said to myself

"I want everything you have right now, I want to be queen, I want to rule over the pack and I want my descendants to be next in line" the lady spoke up

I could not see her face clearly because of the hair that covered her face, I tried to get a clear view of the man's face but I couldn't because his back was turned to the tree that I was hiding behind and he was on the floor.

"You have everything…" The man spoke up again but his voice was really weak that his words came out as a form of a whisper

"You lie, I don't have the throne and that is what I want, what I live for…"

I could hear so much spite in the lady's voice leaving me to wonder why she was doing all these things to just sit on a throne.

"I offered you my heart, I offered you my body but you left me to go after that human that is not even half what I am"

The lady let a small chuckle and I could just tell that she was bitter about the whole thing. I stood behind the tree watching everything that was happening, I felt something crawling up to my elbow, and when I looked it was a spider, I wanted to scream but I held my mouth with my palm and shook the spider away.

"I never asked you for any of those things…." There was a pause mid-sentence and I could tell that he was struggling to breathe, he was going to die and the lady was going to have everything she wanted I thought and immediately felt sad for him.

"I never asked you for anything, you knew we weren't going to end up with each other, you knew that I never liked you. I only entertained the thought of us being together because that was what our parents wanted"

With the way the words came out from his mouth, I could feel his pain, I wanted to go to him to comfort him till he finally let go but I was too scared because I didn't want to die.

"You and your father used my family to sit on that throne but when it was time to repay the favor by getting married to me you chickened out and pretended like you were not aware of the agreement, you coward"

"Everything would have been different if I had known that you were not okay, everything would have been different if you told me how you felt…."

"So that you would see me as a pathetic fool or you would think of me as a weakling"

"Cecilia everything would have been different if I had known how you felt.."

"Would that have stopped you from getting married to that human?"

"She is my mate…"

The lady let out a boisterous laughter, while the man was still on the floor when I brought my head forward to look at him properly I saw that he was wiping blood from his nose.

"Lucas was my mate but I killed him when he was acting stubborn and saying he was not going to let me go, I killed him so I could be with you but here you are acting as if you were the only one who had a mate"

"Lucas would have given you the power you wanted, Lucas was a good man"

"Lucas was not the man I wanted, I wanted you…"

I feel something pass by my legs, I let out a scream forgetting the situation I was in.

"Who is there?" The lady spoke up, her voice completely laced in anger and I am sure that she was going to end my life if she saw me. I immediately tried to back away from the tree so I could escape but my legs had been tied there.

Her attention was now drawn to the tree I had been hiding behind while the man who was on the floor pulled her kegs so she could not move away but instead, she hit him on the arm making him collapse on the floor.

She angrily made her way to the tree and in no time she was in front of me

"Oh it is you, I can see you want to join him"

She let out her knife and I covered my face in an act to protect myself from the sharp metal but instead, I woke up on my bed, sweating profusely.

The only words I could remember from the terrible nightmare I just had were "Oh it is you" and I spent the remaining part of my night wondering what the strange lady meant by that
