Smashing the wall turns then to pebbles. That is when Emric saw the very body that was chains on the center of a podium.‘ So this is where you are. You have that much courage when you could barely move? ‘Seeing how the chains seem to be on loose, he realized that the chain would break any time soon. And that is the hopes maevis have. Making him have the courage to do what he just did.To steal Emric’s body and get revenge on her sister, Levana. “ Maevis… I am glad “‘ I am glad that in this time, it would be you who would felt what it is like. To vanish in the world as if you are never been born. But unlucky you, you are not like me. Because you have no one to turn rules upside down just to get you back in this world ‘“ This is your end “...“ This are such good wine Aillard, you would really give this to us? Thanks! “With him distracting the guards, no one noticed how Lhana entered the forbidden secret chamber. It was not open for anyone as the elders feel a strong power ins
Running as if it was nothing, every leaf I stepped into flied creating a small artificial fall. The moon was hiding behind thick clouds as stars are nowhere to be seen. Why am I even running? That is also a thing I am not sure of. A runaway bride or Luna is something I am more familiar with. That thing happened countless of times already. In my tribe, some even says it as joke. A thrill of chasing to make every mate’s bond stronger. How funny, this may be the first ever occurrence of an Alpha, running away in his own wedding. Being so caught up in my own thoughts, I didn’t notice a sharp tree trunk edge made a small cut in my feet. It is nothing serious but surely, a fur is left in that wood stick. With that, it will take them no time until they finally find me. This forest seems to be endless for I passed through many trees yet there are still more to go but you won’t believe that every edge and corner of it is something I am confident of knowing about. Stopping just right before I
I sometimes wonder… do I really belong in this place? In this a family I can call mine? I also wonder why do I always have doubts and question? Hah… Looking at the area surrounding our house, I sat in the roof of are simple and humble home. Looking up in the sky I raise my hands… It is as if I am a dog being caged… it’s like… the world is a big ocean yet… I am here… wandering in a small and shallow pond… I am Emric Damen. Born as the eldest son of an honorable alpha who protected our back and lead the wolves to its most golden era, I am well aware of how heavy my responsibility is. I know too well that compared to other wolves, I am someone who is special. Although that reputation of being blessed means that I must show that how worthy I am to be my father's son. He is a great leader, he led a whole army and make unity among all his men. A good leader is someone who just does not order his people around but also guides them and fights with them through thick or things, that is
Lhana and I were raised together. It was because we are obligated to obey the instructions and rules of the elders. We are the fated wolves who will bring great changes in our pack. That is also why we are forced to play together, train together, and learn new things together. Due to those strict regulations our parents and elders created, it is not impossible that we both find each other as an 'annoying little wolf who makes my life complicated.' "Do not think that I wanted this to happen" "The same goes to you" As a childhood friend we are somehow distance to each other. I even wonder whether there is a time that I accompanied her but my own will. "And what is the name of our sacred tree" "Erhelena" "Very good Emric" That compliment is something I take as a simple good morning or what so ever. "Can you tell me who is the goddess we are worshipping" Goddess of Moon... It was the goddess of moon who is the reason why Lhana and I are experiencing things as this. The term
It has a thick wood box who is hiding under the thick roots of the tree. I do wonder how it was placed there. Going back in my normal form, my fur disappeared and was replaced with somewhat hairy skin. The roots were completely removed, it was me who did it. Lhana pick the wooden box whose covered with dirt. I quickly dress up using the clothes I have. I make sure that I am hiding behind the thick bush when I transformed. "What was inside?" I asked Lhana to know what she got in that box. "I haven't opened it yet" After I finished putting in my clothes I went back on where Lhana is. Sitting as she bend her knees, she looks at me. "I cleaned the box, how was it" "That's... fine" "Yeah" The box she is holding is so different compared to the box I remembered in my mind. It was... clean. Absolutely clean as if it wasn't filled with dirt a while ago. "How-" "Water and towel. I used your water. Sorry about that" "No worries, it's fine" That is why I somehow hate that girl.
I look at her as I bring my hand to reach hers. She didn't hold it and crossed her arms. "Emric, I am not a baby you need to protect. We promised to each other to not be the burden, right?" A promise to not be a burden to each other? Did we have a promise like that? I... don't remember. "In our third meeting, you said it to me. To not be a burden for you. Remember?" Ah... that day. 'Emric, the elders asked me something about you and Cressida. Do you know your responsibility?' My father asked me that question. It was as if I am some old warrior, or a king who needs to take care of his people... this blessing of the moon... this prophecy ... 'You are born different. Take hold of that responsibility you had' It was the day I lose my belief in the goddess of the moon. So many burdens to carry... So many tasks to accomplish... Don't they know? I am but a simple child who just wants to live like any other normal kid. I want nothing but a simple life that every normal kid has. '
I can’t help but feel bothered about what she said. It is true that I speak ill to her before. Still, it is not that I feel bad saying those words. It is just like what my mother always told me… I shall hold responsibility for everything I say and everything I do…I saw Lhana pick up a piece of rock. She clenches it tightly as she smiled. I wonder what will she do about that rock. To my surprise, the rock fly in the air till it hit the old and shaky bridge. Tak, Tak, Tak That sound can be heard all over the woods. I look at her with questioning eyes. Why did she do that? I do wonder. And before I even have a chance to ask her those questions, the sound of the bridge falling apart while making creek sound can be heard echoing all over the woods. That is something that I expected to happen the moment I hear the sound of the stone hitting the platform of the fragile wood bridge. And soon after. it collapses leaving nothing but an empty grip between two rock forms. Clappi
Lhana shouted. I place my hand on my forehead. I told her to be careful! Yet... this... girl... "Oopsie" She giggled as she sat on the ground. There was a soil that is not sturdy enough to handle her weights which is why she got out of balance and fall. Should I help her? But I think she would just hate me for doing so. Thinking that I am accepting the fact that she is a burden to me. That I need to move to my own accord just to help her. I didn't move and just watch her stand up. Luckily it wasn't the pond that is named to be invisible. I thought she would fall and find it. Still, there is no use for that since it is probably a millennium or centuries ago. The said lake or pond maybe now gone. "Hah, Luckily I landed very nicely" She mumbled. I sometimes wonder if it is really her. When we just first met, she looks at me as if I make her hair go bald or something. That I took something important to her. The second time we met she seems to be neutral. As if I am a
