Araki Forgot Novels & Stories

“Forget it, it’s just nothing." "Okay fine" Ara replied then turned her gaze back to the first Archon who was watching Thati fall asleep. She sighed to see the kindness and care of the first Archon. How could she blame him on her parent’s death if he didn’t look suspicious. She must first find the remaining Archon before she make a hole for the first Archon.

Annika said, her face clouded with disappointment. Aria’s heart sank. She had genuinely forgotten about that promise. It had been a month since Theodore made it, but Annika hadn’t forgotten.

ARIA'S POV: Slamming the door behind me, I stormed up to the bed and threw myself over it. I hit my pillow off of my bed. He knew! He knew about the secret war! Why wouldn't he tell me? What's so bad that he won't tell me?! Why would he tell me to forget about it? Why was mom telling me to forget about it? Why was that mysterious elder telling me to forget it? Why! Why! Sitting up in bed, I inhaled to calm myself down a little bit. Something is really off here in this pack. I could feel it, but I just couldn't place what it was.

Letting it remind me if I forgot. The night I last saw him still rang in my memory. How I'd watched the car strike him. How I'd stood there, frozen, useless. I hate remembering it, but I couldn't let it go sometimes. It was my worst nightmare. The one that played on repeat whenever I closed my eyes too long. I remembered one of those words he kept saying. Like he'd known his time was up. Like he'd known they'd come for him. "You don't have to be like them, Damon."

We sat in silence, finishing our drinks as I closed the laptop. Leaning my head back, I closed my eyes. Stacy was right about one thing. After looking at these, even if I never got my memories back, this fundamentally changed me. The path going forward for my life was now altered. I could never go back. Not after seeing these. Knowing what I had and what I lost, I never wanted to love again. Everything would pale. Even Adrian was struggling with the concept of it.

Mama sighed heavily, and then she smiled at the young Aricka. “No, I always like your skin color and red hair, my baby. You bring us luck, you and Louelle, and I'm thankful that you're both growing up kind,” Mama said, while stroking young Aricka's hair. Even if I am just watching I couldn’t help but feel her caresses my hair. As if she was holding me and not that child.

I sank into Kane's arms, a smirk tugging at the corner of my mouth where no one would see. Of course, I knew what Mnemowort could do. It would be excruciating, but there was a good chance it would bring back his memory. I couldn't let that happen, not yet. Not until my game was over.

Akira nodded. But then, her eyes closed and fluttered, and she looked around, confused. My heart skipped a beat as I thought I must have been so excited and the spell was broken. "What...what happened?" she stammered. I let out a sigh of relief. “Still got her.” "You don't remember?" I asked. Akira's eyes narrowed, and she shook her head. "No," she said, her voice firm. "I don't remember anything." I laughed, the sound low and chilling.
