A huge gust of light twirled around me, throwing the cave into chaos as lucy hung suspended in the air, growling and cursing.I could feel her bones crack, her heartbeat dropping with each passing second.The dark weaves grew stronger, overpowering the lights as they formed into shadowy mists.Lucy screamed as one of the weaves formed into a sharp dagger and pierced into her chest."Help me, Amara!" She cried as the weaves dug into her body. "I can't take this anymore."I panicked, feeling Lucy's life slip away as the weaves grew stronger.I didn't know what to do. This was my first time wolfing out fully. I couldn't control Lucy under normal circumstances,let alone now her life was in danger."Hang on, Lucy." I say within her, looking around the cave when my gaze falls on it,The necklace.It must have snapped when Lucy morphed out.Shit!The necklace lay on the floor, at the farthest part of the cave. Lucy and I were still suspended in the air. There was no way I could reach it."Yo
"Arghh!!!" we screamed as we fell through the dark void and landed face-first on the hard concrete.I groaned softly and turned onto my back, fluttering my eyes open to the tiny streams of sunlight that seeped in from above the cave."Shit. Where are we?" Morgana muttered, standing up and staggering slightly as she placed a hand on her head."I... I don't know," I replied, my head dizzy as I slowly helped myself to my feet, leaning on the cave wall for support.Morgana inhaled sharply and glared at me."This is all your fault," she snapped, glaring daggers at me."My fault?" I replied, stunned at the girl’s audacity."Yes! Your. Fault," she snarled. "If you had just minded your business, we wouldn't be here in the first place."I scoffed and rolled my eyes."Maybe if you hadn’t been so stupid to take the Poison Ivy," I grunted, "we wouldn’t actually be here in the first place."Morgana let out a gasp, staring at me in disbelief."You actually want to pin this on me?" she asked.I arch
Amara’s POVThe sky was clear. Too clear for a morning like this. A mournful stillness hung in the air as if the heavens had held their breath.The sun had risen pale and the trees stood frozen in solemn reverence. I should have found comfort in the serenity, but all I felt was dread. Afraid of what laid ahead of me.We walked in a line as Morgana and I led the procession. Both dressed in plain white tunics and scarves. No jewelry. No markings. No colour.Lucy stirred softly inside me. Solemn.I didn’t need to hear her to know how she felt . How she dreaded what might become. "You’re not alone, Amara." She voiced. "I'll fight with you."I nodded, giving a light smile to her comforting words. But was that be enough?Was she enough?The procession came to a stop at the base of the jagged hill, where the Cave sat on.One of the elders stepped forward—Elder Tirajo, his weathered face cold and stern as his white robe fluttered against the cold wind.He lifted his hands and muttered an i
"A lemon flavoured lip paint?" Benita raised a brow, licking her lips as they disengage from each other."Yep." Rebecca smirked, "Isn't it your favourite?"Benita chuckled and stepped away, gazing into the deserted field."Our Problem," She groaned, her tone darkening, "The worthless girl from Falme that claims to be the Moon Goddess Reborn."She tore her gaze from the field and peered at Rebecca."We need to do something about it."Rebecca sighs and massages her forehead with her fingers. " I always thought the Moon Goddess Reborn was bluff," She said. "Something to manipulate us into believing in some unknown deity. I never believed she was real, talk less of having a girl from Falme take the title.""But you should have known," Benita snapped, grunting irritably. "The plan was simple. Remove Morgana out of the picture and I win the Luna Trials.""I thought–""You though nothing Rebecca. You failed."She clicked her tongue and turned to the field."That day, at the trial of threads
Benita's POV"Arghh!" I screamed as I stepped into the dorm and smashed the vase at the wall. I thought I had everything covered but that Falme girl had ruined it all. My Plans, My dreams, My schemes. Everything I had carefully planned and put in place for years, all on the verge of being destroyed because of her!!!I had always planned for the Luna Trials. Always put on this miserable facade of being a nice charming girl with young looks to get on everyone's good books.I knew being the lowly daughter of the lowly brother of King Magnus would cut my chances of being the Mother Superior.Yes, King Magnus was the Almighty Lord of the Pack Clan, Morgana's father and Son of the great Odis and my father should be as powerful as he is, but ironically, my father was not.My father was useless. An worthless coward that was sick from birth. He was the first son of king Odis and should have been crowned king but he couldn't even handle being a man, talk less of being an Alpha.Every Alpha sh
The hall hung in silence as Queen Nianieve stepped in, her entourage of maidens and guards trailing behind.We all straightened, adjusting into a line as we bowed."At ease." She nodded, waving us a hand as she settled in the middle of the hall.Vera cleared her throat nervously and walked to her."Your Majesty," She bowed. "It is an honor. You gracing us with your presence."Queen Nianieve scoffed, her brow raised to a condescending gaze. "It is expected that a leader check on it's subject."Her voice dropped to a icy tone, "Especially when the subject becomes incompetent."Dread thickened the hall."You have shown that you are incapable of leading these girls into the Luna Trials" Queen Nianieve continued, walking away from Vera towards us. "A Witch lies within these girls and a Mother of the palace is unaware?"Vera's shuddered, pouting her lips. "The accusation is too outrageous, Mother." She said. "A Witch being in the palace is impossible.""But We have one!" Queen Nianieve bar
