Azura:
The mont my father arrived, my mother started pinching , trying to make get up, and I had to. What shocked was the way my father rushed to her and hugged her. I couldn’t believe it.
He used to not give a damn about her, but suddenly he was back to accepting her. And why? Because my mother was the only cunning wife he had, the one who managed to manipulate the entire werewolf community by using Darcy. My father seed to love her for that now.
The second he broke the hug, he turned to . I expected him to be condescending, but instead he grabbed my arms and shook .
"I’m proud of you," he said. My eyes widened in confusion, and then he pulled into an embrace, a hug I had always wanted from him.
"You are –proud of m—e?" I asked, stuttering a little.
"Of course, why not? You’ve been nothing but negative, just like I wanted my children to be. But you weren’t just negative. You knew how to manipulate everything and everyone. You managed to stay in the lives of those werewolf brothers longer than anyone else. And I’m proud of you," he said, making smile widely.
"I’ll try my best to do what others couldn’t," I told my father, reassuring him. The look of confidence on my mother’s face said it all. They were both so happy for .
And since none of my siblings were left anymore, it was just . Rune was the eldest, but he had been trapped in Rune’s world for a long ti. That was the thing with us. Since the others were born from entity mothers, when they died, their souls lived on.
They had to be killed again to completely pass on. As for , I knew that if I died, I wouldn’t get a second chance like they did. But it didn’t matter. They hadn’t done anything with the chances they got anyway.
"Anyway, we have to be very careful with what we’re going to do now," my father started, and I nodded. All the burden was on my shoulders now. I had to make sure I didn’t get killed. That’s why we were having this conversation.
"They’re killing their other mates just so the brothers are free from the curses," I said, and my father nodded along.
"Well, you have to make sure you don’t die. But more importantly, you have to make Emt kill Helanie first. That’s the only way you’ll escape the constant fear of being killed by them," my father suggested, and I nodded again.
He had been alive for far too many years, with countless children along the way. Every generation tried to control the werewolf community, but the community always fought back, trapping them, killing them, turning them into monsters. And now it was my turn.
But here was the saddest part. My father had no more children left. I knew that if we didn’t hurry and take over the werewolf community, and if I didn’t have a baby with Emt soon, my father would start to fade away. There would be no X-codex anymore. That was what we had to prevent.
"How am I supposed to do that? They shoved Emt into so dream world with the help of a pearl," I complained, watching my mother nod, her eyes narrowing as she thought.
"Then you have to make sure Helanie enters the dream world. He can kill her there too. Rember, whatever happens there happens in the real world as well," she reminded , and I nodded in understanding. She wasn’t wrong.
"But how would I do that, Mom? Even if she goes there, he’ll never kill her," I said.
"That’s only if you’re not smart enough. His mory will be jagged in there. And with his own curse, it will be even worse. Whoever reminds him of who he has loved will make him kill the other one." my mother smirked.
I rembered the sa thing happening with Kesha and Charlotte. But I wasn’t like them. I wasn’t so dumb bitch.
"I’ll do it. Thank you. I’ll get to work quickly," I stated confidently.
I was already thinking of a plan. A way to throw Helanie into the dream world so that the minute she entered, he would hate her.
"Then I must return ho now. I think they’ve already taken down one more mate, and I don’t want to delay. I’ll go and get to work right away," I said as I stood up.
But my father held my hand one last ti, giving a reassuring smile.
"Everything is in your hands now. Our future is in your hands," he said, making smile even wider.
"And I won’t let you down," I told him with confidence.
Then I began my journey back ho. I had one major advantage, none of them really knew the truth about . I could use that to play a very nasty ga with them.
On my way ho with my mother, I’d already heard so things. For example, that Jessica was dead and Norman had taken her to the well, claiming it as a sacrifice. My mother also confird it, since she had found out too. That news only made the pressure on heavier.
"Don’t worry, go inside. I’ll be close by. I’ll keep my eye on what’s going on, and if you’re in danger, I’ll rush in," my mother said. I took a deep breath and nodded. I was ready for this.
With that, I stepped up to the entrance and walked inside. But the mont I did, I realized there wasn’t a single person around. I couldn’t understand where they had all gone.
I started looking around and noticed there weren’t even warriors outside Emt’s room. That made a little anxious, but also tempted to check on him. I figured I could sneak a peek and still prepare a way to lure Helanie in.
I began walking toward what used to be Lord McQuoid’s room, which was now Emt’s, the place where he slept. But just as I got closer, I heard footsteps behind , and that’s when I knew I had made a mistake.
