Gianna
A thick silence fell in the room as the woman chants her words of sorcery. All the while he kept advancing small glares to my way. I didn't miss how his jaw was clenching and unclenching. The woman kept on with what she was doing for more than five minutes before she later unwind her eyes."Are you ready master Valen?" She asked her gaze landing on him."You know I am. I hope there won't be any problem like you said last time. I need to reach there before my father take the wrong decision" He sat up. That was when I noticed he wasn't wearing that robe. He was dressed into a normal outfit. I wouldn't deny he looked better in them."There won't be. The full moon will appear in fifteen minutes. I suggest we wait at the gate. You know it doesn't stay for long""Let's go then"And we all proceed to move out of the house. Valen stop turning to me. "Where are you going?" He asked accessing me from head to toe."To the gates. Why?" I asked my brows furrowing."If you follow us to the gate, you're leaving straightforward from there" My mouth was left open at his statement."Ofcourse I'm leaving but after I've gotten what I came for" He didn't say anything instead step out followed by the sorcerer then Vito. I was the last to follow suit.The air suddenly felt somehow. Windy mixed with haze. The surrounding was menacely quite with our foot walking on the ground being the only sound making out. I wrapped my arms around my body as we walk our way towards the gates. I could hear the low voice of Adelaide chanting. My eyes shifted to Valen who was taking small steps as if afraid the ground will swallow him while Vito tall figure was backing him up. On his right hand was a sword. What could he doing with it? We're not in the olden days. Judging by the place, I don't think they'd be any enemies around.As we neared the gate, Adelaide stopped making the rest to follow her heed. "Master Valen take this" She opens up her palms. A white mixed with black bead lay on her palms. Valen grabbed the small bead without question. "This bead is what will protect you outside this gates. It has the powers of the four sacred cave. Make sure you keep it with you all time"Wow, I have to admit I was piqued at what was going on. It made me curious to know who he is. And why the sorcerer is giving him something to protect himself.Gianna, mind your business. You're here to find out about your parents not about Valen and his own problems."You know if it's for my safety, I don't play around. Vito?" He called."Yes Master" Vito marched forward. "Keep an eye on her as soon as the gate open send her back""Yes Master""Wait... Escort who? I'm not done here yet. You can go ahead to wherever you want to go" My eyes darted left to right with the look he gave me."Vito do as I say""I'm not going anywhere" I said again."Don' argue with me girl. I've given you a chance last time. I'm not doing that again. You're in my zone don't forget that""W-""Enough. Since she insist, we'll allow her. But don't blame us for whatever follows" A smile broke at my lips at her words. Which means I have a hope of getting something from her."She'd have to deal with it herself" He grumbled under his breath. And I rolled my eyes in return.Silence was then maintained. The weather began changing. The clouds was no longer bright. Somehow I felt heat radiating inside me. Like a hot water has been splashed on me. I rubbed my temple as I felt a sharp pain visited my head. I tried to keep calm yet, the pain increases. I wince in pain biting my bottom lip. What is happening to me? I was fine before."What is wrong with you girl?" Adelaide’s voice revamped to my eardrums like a microphone. The voice was faraway.Nothing to keep me balance which made me wobble back on the ground my vision turning blurring. The pain got more intense below my heart. "Argh!" I muffled out in a low voice. The last thing before I seize out was the sound of the gate.I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar ceiling. A cough escaped me. I tried to lift up myself only to be stopped. "You're still weak girl" Adelaide’s voice charged to my eardrums. That was when everything began coming back to me.I remembered we were waiting for the full moon to appear so Valen could leave and then I will talk to Adelaide about my parents and leave. "What happened?""You fell unconscious the moment the full moon appears""Why?""Well, that was why I said you have an extraordinary blood running in your veins. Somehow Valen couldn't pass through the gates too" I was confused at her statement. What do I have to do with the full moon? Whe-The festival. I discarded the covers from my body and got out of bed. I'm still feeling light pain below my chest. I need to go back real quick before they notice something. "It's too late" My foot came to an abrupt stop.Adelaide marched up to me. "You won't be able to leave. Same way Valen couldn't get pass through the gates""Why? I thought I was able to do that even before the full moon appears. What are you trying to say""Well, I came to know about it. The moon goddess has sealed the gates. You won't be able to leave" I felt my inside burn. I haven't tried it yet to jump to conclusions. I ignored the woman and made a walk out of the room. I don't care how I was barely walking straight. I didn't care to look at the lady that I almost bumped into.I charged towards the door flinging it open. "This cannot be possible" I muffled out as I walk my way towards the gate. The thought of not going back sending weakness down my body. No one knows I was out. "I need to get back real quick"My foot came to a halt in front of the gate. I heaved in and out a deep breath. "Gianna be calm. The gates will open up" I placed my hand over my chest and stepped forward. I slowly reached for the door. I pulled it yet, it didn't open. I tried again. Same. Glued. Too many attempt but all in vain. My breathing hitched. What is going on? Did I get stucked here?ValenI reckon over what transpire some hours ago. No matter how hard I tried, I can't seem to put the bits together. I was close to stepping out of Mont Givana gate. Very close. Yet, I couldn't. I felt it. How my wolf growl for the first since I was exile. I felt my body almost taking charge of it. However, such didn't happen. Instead, the omega girl worsen the situation. She fell unconscious. I knew she'd be a handful the very first time she entered through the gates. I'm not the type that give second chance but something about her piqued my interest. Possibly because we met at the lake view the last time I wandered around. I was able to recognize her through her voice. Things must've been better for her. I think. The door sounded followed by the presence of Vito. I could hear his heavy breath. As if he ran a marathon. “Master. The girl has regain consciousness” He said. And I sat up and walked out. I need no hindering secret. Adelaide will have answers to what was going on. Becaus
GiannaThe sound of spoon fisting against each other mixed with my thought was the only thing I was doing at the moment. Different scenario were coming in my head. What will happen to me now? Will I be able to get back to the pack? What will they think if they come to know I'm missing? Will they look for me? Will they have the thought of maybe I went through the gates?It came ringing in my head over and over again. I couldn't concentrate. I was only putting the food in my mouth without paying attention to it. Valen was silent too. Maybe lost in his own world. What could be my connection with the gate? Why was I able to get pass the gate before the full moon and couldn't get pass it after the full moon? Everything just seem mixed up. An exaggerated groan left my lips. “If you're not going to focus on what you're eating you can kindly keep it aside. We don't waste food here” A scoff left my lips. What is he trying to say? Can't he see I'm in some kind of situation. If he wants me out
ValenSomething is wrong somewhere. I couldn't do away with the suspicious in me. Somehow my instinct is telling me she's not just here to find out about her parents. She might be here for other purposes. The voice of the female reporter echo through the room. Images of my father all over the internet. He has taken over the business. The business that will be a threat to him in the future. How easily it was to tame him. Thinking he got a big deal. I have no power to help me. He has already discarded me from his life. The event still fresh in my head. The look in his eyes when he announced that I will be leaving the Fort Stone pack. He cut all ties with me. Same goes to my mother. Everything happened before her. Yet, she didn't do anything. They didn't trust their son. They believe the myth of the sorcerer. "Master" My attention was diverted by the voice of Vito. I raised up my brows indicating him to go on. "The girl went up to the gates again" Seriously, she's that stubborn? I do
GiannaNo way in hell I will sit by. I can not wait for the two days. I will keep trying. I might be lucky the gates will open. The surrounding was quite giving me that bad vibes. It look more scary now that I have a close look at it. If someone is to murder me, no one will know about it. No soul could be seen how would I be murdered. I laugh at my silly joke. The big gate stood in front of me. The barrier against the outside world. “Let’s try it Gianna” I muffled out omitting out a short breath and proceed forward. My body went weak when the gate didn't make a move. I tried and tried with no progress. I angrily kicked the gate with my foot only to let out a hiss in return when I felt a pain on my ankle. “All your effort will be of no use” A voice said from behind me. His tall frame was almost hovering over mine. The sword was situated on his hands as if there were meant to be there. “Its good to try the impossible” I answered turning my focus back to the gate. If I don't try, how
GiannaMy palms were wrapped around the mug as I take in the warmth from it. Adelaide eyes were fixated on me for more than a minute. I wonder what she was looking at or what she was trying to understand in me. After all she's a sorcerer. “Em.. I-” I tried to think of what to say to get her attention. “Did you see anything?” I commenced. Last time she talked about my destiny maybe she's trying to read something through my eyes again. “Knowing about your parents won't make any difference to the situation you are in. But seeing your stubbornness and the extra miles you went to coming here, I will tell you a bit about them. But-” She stopped making me to stare at her in curiosity. “You won’t ask any more question if I tell you or much to say try to dig more into it” “I will not Ma’am” I said not sure whether I will do that. I just want to know about them. “Before I tell you, I want you to know that Master Valen doesn't like it when people talk about his curse” But why is that? Some
ValenSpeechless was the only thing that overpower my body when Cindy broke the news to me. I don't know what the girl wants. What kind of a person is she? Not long ago Vito carried her back which she claimed he touched her without her consent. I thought the stunt I pulled earlier will work. I guess I have to show more of me to her. Maybe she'd behave. I was still on that thought when the front door sounded followed by her footsteps. “You’re here?” She said her voice coming out surprised.“Yes. Does that disturb you?” I said equally back. She marched her way towards me. “I think we might be lucky soon. Adelaide said there's a chance the gates might open” She sounded too excited to my liking. “That’s good” I answered shortly. I thought she'd take my silence and leave. However, she didn't make a move instead said something that boiled my inside with anger. “Perhaps your curse has to do with the gates. It-” She didn't get to complete her statement when I jolted up and grabbed her arms
GiannaThe plan was to apologize and get it over with. For my action. I didn't expect it to turn to something meaningful. Valen and I had quite a normal conversation. Without me pissing him off or him ranting on top of my head. We converse like friends. When we're not one. Although our discussion didn't go that deep. Like talking about our personal stuffs. Weird we only talked about our hobbies. How can someone eat plain boiled potatoes everyday? Like every blessed morning. He doesn't have any specialty. As far as he'd eat and quench his hunger he's okay with. And he told me about his favorite colour which is black. It wasn't surprising to me. Men with their taste in black. I didn't hide away my smile when he complimented my food. Too bad he won't be tasting it again. As soon as the gate opens, I would leave with no return. We’re awaiting Adelaide’s feedback by midnight we’d know the situation. I pray things will work out well. I don't know what situation it is back at the Alpha’s h
ValenThe girl sure has a way of making someone feel guilty. I know an omega will always be at the lowest rank. That's how they're meant to be. But all what she said Is trying to prove me wrong. I don't know whether she wants me to take pity on her which was why I ask her. Yet, she said something which made me feel somehow inside. I cannot wait for Adelaide to find a solution so that she'd leave. She's not meant to be in here. In Mont Givana. I'm not the type who let his guard down and allow someone take a control of me. However, I did that. I allowed her to go near my bed, I allowed her to question me on matters that doesn't concern her. And I even gave her the answer. Which is unlike me. So it's better if she leave. I know if she do, probably we won't meet again. It's has been a while since I laugh so hard like that. I couldn't hold in my laughter when she fell flat on her butt. It was a scene to laugh about. She stormed away from the farm in anger. I could hear her muttering inco
