Bound by Twisted Fate のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 121 - チャプター 130

The mountain had an eery air to it. I had never seen anything like it. I heard growls behind me as I marched up to it. The moon was high in the air, full as slightly intimidating. I heard growls behind me urging me to move along and not stop. I shuddered in the night air but I had a feeling it had little to do with the actual weather. Wind blew by intimidately and my feet felt heavier and heavier as we climbed up the mountain higher and higher. I looked back for a second dread feeling me. I had made the decision to come here to save my loved ones but the more I looked back, the more I realised there was no one to save me anymore. The thought filled me with sadness and all I wanted to do was cry. But I held my chin up and stiffened my lower lip. If there's one thing Cameron had taught me, it was never to go down begging or crying. And I needed to make sure I honoured his memory. If this was going to be my end, I would end it like a true Diamanté and show no fear. The ring o

I looked up and saw the Dark Lord rise, shoving Thane off of him. His eyes glowed red but Celeste didn't stop until the ring fell off my finger and clamoured to the ground. He growled in my direction. "It's over!" I yelled at him already feeling my strength returning. "You will never have my power." He glared at me and let out a loud frustrated yell to the moon. In no time we saw his body begin to morph. His bones concocting. His skin being covered by jet black fur. He was soon on four limbs. A snout grew where his nose and mouth were. I gasped. His was the biggest wolf I had ever seen. Easily towering over everyone here. He growled viciously at everyone. I looked at Celeste in worry. The look in his eyes was obvious. He was going to kill every single one of us. With a sweep of his paw, he easily knocked Thane away. Thane hit the surface of a mountain and fell to the ground with a loud thud. It felt like the breath had been sucked out of my lungs. No!He wasn't moving.

I focused on Landon. Directing my light towards him. He wasn't here. He was hidded far away with Matteo. But that didn't matter. He was my ally, my friend. There was a reason this only worked with people I had developed a bond with. A light shot through me straight through to wherever Landon was. I couldn't see him but I knew whereever he was, he must have received the gift. I redirected my attention now over to Thane. 'Thane! Are you there?' I asked. 'I'm here my love.' His voice came promptly.I opened my eyes and I saw everyone around us. All silent and simply watching in wonder. Thane was on knees now. I watched him, never having seen him this weak. It hurt me to know that this was all happening because of me. That if I had never met Thane, neither him nor his pack would have ever had to deal with this. But I was determined to make things right. I dropped to my knees beside him and took his face in my hands. I pressed her forehead to his and could feel our breath mingled.

I stood there with my chest heaving as the cheers sounded around me. I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it was all actually over. "Thane!" I turned and saw Piper running towards me. I looked down at my still raised claw and immediately set it down. The Dark Lord's words couldn't stop running through my mind. 'You're the monster now.' “Thane!” Piper called my name again. I turned to her just as she reached and crashed right into me. I felt my fur begin to recede as I changed back to my normal human height. Her arms locked around me, holding me tight. “You did it." She whispered in my ear. “He's gone! He's really gone!" My arms wrapped around her as well softly. With all the violence I had inflicted it's all I wanted right now. To handle her as gently as I could and disprove the Dark Lord's last words. Lyra, Jaimie and Celeste ran over to us. Jaimie beamed at me. "I knew you could do it. This officially gives you an eternity of bragging rights you are truly the T

The clearing looked so different. It was hard to believe this was the exact same place where we had once been attacked by Dark ones. The silver light of the dull moon leaked in between the trees as I stepped up to the man made walkway. There were torches and fairy lights outlining the path. I looked around and knew this could only have otherwise hapoened in a dream. Tempest and Eclipse packs standing shoulder to shoulder inspite of all those years of enmity and hatred. Me, a pure Diamanté getting ready to get married to the alpha of the Tempest pack of all people. But here we were. And it couldn't be more real. I felt elated. Butterflies formed a swarm in my stomach as I clutched my bouquet. It felt like everyone was waiting with bated breaths. I couldn't help but look up and wish Cameron was here. He would probably be fussy and emotional even though he would try so hard to hide it. I tried to fight away my tears and not think about him. Bottom line is that he would have been
