Novel & Cerita Black Swan Mother

I nodded, knowing that already. “Do you know what that means?” he asked, looking concerned. “Is it supposed to—“ I paused when it finally clicked in my head. Only a mother wolf could be a purely white wolf. And that happens only once in a millennium. The northern Luna Queen, who was Axel’s mother, was a mother wolf. There’s no way I was also a mother wolf. “That’s impossible...” I whispered in disbelief.

His amber eyes, permanent and sovereign, were fixed on the dark fissure. Then, she rose. It wasn't a body. It was a projection of silver-gray light, a towering silhouette that wore the shape of a woman but moved like a tidal force. The Mother. The First Prime's shadow. She didn't walk; she manifested, her presence shaking the very bedrock of the sanctuary. The floor groaned, ancient frost cracking as her silver-gray pulse rippled through the stone. "White Wolf," the projection whispered. The sound wasn't a voice; it was gravity. It bypassed my ears and vibrated directly in my bone marrow. "You are... misplaced."

I replied to him in a calm tone. “Your mother was one of the most outstanding she-wolves of her time. You can say that because of her wolf and her own intelligence, she was on top. Raymond Hawk, Gabriel Hawk, Cassius Hawk….. all three potential candidates for the throne back then wanted your mother, but she ended up with Sebastian Whitelock.” His tone was serious while I listened to him with a calm mind.

I sucked in air reflexively, not daring to move as they raked their hot gazes up and down my body like needles. “Be good Elizabeth! Remember everything I've taught you, dear girl!” My mother’s shrill scream came from outside suddenly and I winced with embarrassment as the classy women snickered again. “Wait, was that your mother? How pathetic.” The curvy wolf lady snorted to the blonde woman who was watching me intensely and I tried to pretend I couldn't hear them two feet away from me. “Alpha Blackwood sure is picking them from the dirt these days since his barren bitch of a Luna can't give him an heir,” Sarah sneered, and my heart jumped harder inside me.

“I know I won’t stay long. I took one of those pills, don’t worry. Actually, I’m glad I did. That blonde wolf has been eyeing me like I was a prime rib dinner and he’s not eaten in a month.” “Watch it, that’s Malcolm Richard’s assistant. His name’s Jordan Blacksmith.” “Are you saying what I think you’re saying? Malcolm is the one the media call the Wolf of Bay Street. You work with him, right? So, he or they are both wolves? Oh, Mel. It’s too dangerous here. What if you’re caught?” “It would have been fun while it lasted?” “Well, I’m not here for fun and games. Sadly, I’ve been sent to tell you your mother’s gone. The den elders are demanding you return and take her place as soon as possible

“What are you saying? My…my…my mother is a wolf not a witch so how can she…” “Your mother is a witch and a wolf, she’s an hybrid originated from the great hybrid family….” “What?”

“You do not scare me. Sister or whatever you say you are.” Selene smiled cruelly. “I should baby, because I am the only one who knows the whole truth. And I have proof.” She held up her phone. On the screen was an old photo of a woman with long black hair and storm gray eyes holding a tiny baby. The woman looked exactly like my mother. Under the photo was a birth record. Raven Blackthorne. Mother: Rowan Black. Father: listed as unknown. Selene tucked the phone away. “One text to the council and your life ends. Stay away from what is mine, little sister. Or I will burn everything you love.”

Chapter 186: Unfinished Business XENOIS "Xenois!" My mum's voice was loud enough to be heard from the entrance, and I turned to see both my parents approaching me with expressions of concern and relief written across her face. Silvia Blackwood looked as elegant and dangerous as ever, she wore her hair in her favourite style paired with the latest designer clothes that did little to hide the predator aura that marked her as one of the most formidable Luna and assassin in the region.

"I think you terrify them in ways you don't even understand yet." The vial feels warm in my hands. Heavy with possibility. "Why are you helping me?" "Because I've watched that family destroy too many young wolves. And because..." She pauses, something flickering across her face. "Because your mother was my student once." My mother. My heart clenches with old pain and new hope. "She was?" "A brilliant witch. A powerful wolf. And a woman who died protecting secrets that could shake the foundations of our world." Professor Blackwood's voice softens. "Secrets that live in your blood, Evangeline."

I motioned for her to come in, closing the door behind her. “Talk,” I said, keeping my voice steady even as my heart raced. She stood in the center of the room, her gaze steady. “Your mother was a dire wolf,” she said, her words deliberate. “One of the last of her kind.” I froze, the air leaving my lungs. “A... dire wolf?” “Yes,” she said. “A species older and stronger than any other. They were nearly wiped out centuries ago, but your mother was one of the few who survived. Her power was extraordinary, and it terrified those who knew what she could do.”
