A Curse From The Moon Chapter Thirty-one: Trapped.
Rendall watched at a hidden corner in dismay at a beaten and battered Helia. He frowned. He had warned her about wandering into the community without an invitation, but she had not listened. She got beaten up because of her stubbornness and despite the pain the two burly men before her had caused her, she refused to kneel at their command on the ground before them. She stared at them defiantly instead.Furthermore, she stubbornly rushed toward one of the hefty men with her fisted hands pointed at him for the hundredth and for the hundredth time, he disappeared immediately she got to him to throw a fist at him and reappeared behind. Rendall winced as he watched the hefty man whip her back.Helia roared angrily. She spun around and went after the man who had whipped her."Leave this place," The other man bellowed."NO!" She roared, and he lunged at her and whipped her at the back again.She shrieked in pain at the impact, and she spun away from the previous man to him. She raised her

Helia sat on the bench, downtrodden. Rendall hit the rail angrily as the two hefty men left, and yelped afterward. He walked over to Helia who was weak because of the wounds she had sustained from the hefty men's floggings."You're still bleeding," Rendall cried out and rushed over to her."I'm a were-creature. I'll heal soon." Helia's voice was faint. She was getting weaker by the minute."Those men ain't ordinary. Their strokes aren't ordinary either," Rendall said with a brittle voice as he held her in his arms."Do you want to cry?" Helia asked with a faint smile, and Rendall frowned at her. He made her lean on the wall away from his body. He took off his shirt and began to rip it into four pieces."What are you doing?" Helia asked, but Rendall ignored her and took her hands."You should have stopped bleeding by now and should be healing, but you aren't, and you're still bleeding. Aren't you worried about losing so much blood," Rendall scolded sternly, and she smiled."Of course,

"What was your previous name," Rendall asked again. "Talk!""My previous name was O—" the spirit medium paused and smirked."O— what? Go on," Helia coaxed."Olivia," she answered and cackled when she saw the angry expressions on their faces. She had pulled their legs and she enjoyed doing so.Rendall grunted at her angrily and Helia glared at her."I told you the truth. Do you want me to tell you a lie?" She smirked and they frowned at her."Call on Nyx now!" Rendall commanded and the spirit medium raised an eyebrow."You seem to be an Alpha. Interesting, but I'm not a werewolf and I won't do your biddings because you're not an Alpha in the eyes of spirit mediums.""Just do it," Helia snapped."Don't you want to know my other name?""If it isn't Orenda, then we aren't interested," Helia scoffed and the spirit medium frowned."Begin!" Rendall commanded again and the spirit medium nodded. She took off the bag on her shoulders and brought her tools out of it. In no time, she was surround

"Brient."Silence."She isn't Orenda."Silence."And, Brient, I'm coming back today."Silence."Just drop it. It won't work out."She threw the phone in her hand to the bed without waiting for the person at the other end to say any more words. Helia's eyes were filled with tears. He had not seen her, but she had heard everything he said, and after he had spoken, she walked away without him noticing."I can't believe I almost trusted a wolf," she said as she fell to the bed beside her full bag.She had thought she had misunderstood him, but her instincts turned out to be right. "Damn it," she cursed softly. He had been feigning concern all the while. He was only acting as a savior whenever she was in trouble just to deceive her."I still can't believe our mate can do this to us," she heard Nalea sad and Helia smiled sadly."You better believe it. He had almost deceived us."With the back of her palms, she wiped off the tears on her face and stood from the bed. She picked up the bag on

On the weekend, Selene and Brient decided to have a picnic with Rendall and Helia in a park near their house. In their words, ‘it will help ease the tension that had ensued after Rendall and Helia had returned from Ocean Ville’.Brient and Selene watched Helia and Rendall give each other the stink eye as they sat opposite each other on the mat, and they both realized that the picnic was not working."Come on, the both of you should stop. I baked cookies," Selene said, pointing to the basket between them. "There are delicious cupcakes in the basket too. Everyone should eat and be jolly. There shouldn't be any malice."Rendall and Helia huffed, folded their arms around their chests, and looked away from each other."Enough is enough," Brient snapped as he saw that they weren't ready to talk to each other. "Selene and I won't talk to the both of you until you both reconcile.""Yes," Selene agreed. "We are both tired of the cat and dog behavior you both display. Brient and I will both lea

Terror was etched on Helia's face as she paced up and down the living room. It had been forty-eight hours since she last saw Rendall, and now, Rendall was nowhere to be found.Brient had gone to the police to file a complaint. Helia rubbed her palms as they got more sweaty. She had offered to join Brient in visiting the Police, but he asked her to stay back home to see if Rendall would come back.She had been glancing at the door at intervals, hoping that Brient would open the door and walk in, but her hopes got dashed each time she stared at the door."Rendall."She closed her eyes, probably trying to hold back the tears that were beginning to well in her eyes. "I'm sorry." Her voice was low and raspy. Her throat began to hurt."It was all your fault," Nalea said in her head hoarsely. "I thought I'd be happy if he wasn't around," Helia sulked."How do you feel now that he is missing?""I shouldn't be feeling this way for someone who had almost betrayed me," Helia said as her eyes o

As she sat behind her screen, Helia glanced at Rendall's seat, expecting to see him seated, but each time she did, she got disappointed."What's wrong?"Helia jolted on hearing Dylan's voice and she craned her neck to see Dylan standing behind her. He looked concerned as he watched her keenly."Nothing's wrong." Helia feigned a smile as she glanced at him, but he looked skeptical. He shrugged and sat on the seat next to hers."Would you be available during the weekend? I wanted us to see a movie together.""A movie?" She asked and he nodded. Helia stared at his face and she saw that it pleaded for a yes. His eyebrows were knitted in worry that he'd get a no from her. "I—" she paused. Her head told her to say yes. Except for the space, Nalea was occupying, of course! Nalea was screaming a big no, and her heart told her the same word.Helia placed her right hand on her forehead as the contrast in her head increased. Nalea wanted her to refuse, but she thought that a date with Dylan wil

Sadness clouded Brient as he glanced at Helia. She sat next to him on a bench in the park they had seen Rendall last. Since Rendall had gone missing, they made it a point of duty to visit the park every evening after work, hoping to find Rendall around, but it had been a week, yet Rendall was nowhere to be found."It has been quite lonely without Rendall and Selene around," Brient pointed out sadly and Helia sighed. Selene had been sent on a business trip. Before she left, Brient and Helia had told her that Rendall had left for his hometown because of an emergency and luckily, she bought it."Do you think lying to Helia was nice," Brient continued, trying to initiate a conversation. "I feel bad about it."Brient heaved a sigh of frustration as he saw that Helia was in her sad world and wasn't willing to have a conversation."Don't you think we're not working hard enough to find Rendall?""I don't think so. Since Dawn broke, you've been asking around the neighborhood for him, while I'v

Helia watched in terror as the silver bullets moved toward Rendall. She closed her eyes and without thinking about it, she muttered words. Words which she had seen somewhere but could not place where.Energy radiated from her and immediately, she heard the bullet strike someone. She felt her heart freeze, hoping it was not what she thought. Hoping that whatever she had done had worked.Helia's eyes snapped open and when they did, they moved to Rendall, then to Alpha Janus and they dilated.The son stared at the father and the father stared back. One of them was on their knees, gasping for his last breath."F— father?" Rendall's voice quivered.Alpha Janus' head was bowed in shame."You tried to kill me?" Shock was written all over Rendall's face. He knew that his father was evil and despite the threats, he never really thought that his father could try to kill him."Save me.""I can't. If I could, I still wouldn't. You deserve what has befallen you," Rendall spat disdainfully.Helia s

"Rendall!" Helia called out as soon as she got into Rendall's room. Rendall was seated on his bed with worry etched on his face."Helia?"Rendall got up from his bed. He began to look around and Helia sighed."You can't see me, remember?" "Oh! You're right. You're under an invisibility spell. You were still in my father's room after I had left, right?""Yes.""And you heard Mr. Wilkinson and my father talk about me, right?""Yes.""What did they say?"Rendall's question was followed by a long silence."Your father. He is so—""Evil?""Evil is too weak to describe what he is. No offense, but I'd rather not have a father than have a father like yours.""I know right? So, what did he say?" Rendall asked and he raised an eyebrow as he heard her sigh again."We have to be cautious.""What did my father say?""That he'd kill you if he finds out that you're trying to trick him," Helia said and Rendall chuckled sarcastically."Well, I'm not surprised. He'd do anything for power. Do you hear

"Everything that happened, happened according to how it was fated to. All this happened for one result. The werewolves are getting punished for taking the land of the witches. The werelions are punished for not helping their neighbors." "How do we get out of her punishment?" Helia asked "That's for you both to figure out. You both have the knowledge you need to break the curse of Khron and Wulfe. You have to. It is your destiny to do so." "Since we are destined to save Wulfe and Khron, we'll do so, right?" Rendall asked and Alecto smiled. "We have destinies. We can also choose whether or not we want our destinies. You can choose to save the werewolves and werelions. You can also choose not to save the werewolves and the werelions," Alecto answered with a casual shrug and Helia and Alecto glanced at each other. "We have to take down both my father and Mr. Wilkinson," Rendall said and Helia scoffed. "Like you would really take down your father. You would surely betray us," Helia s

"Do you really have to go? Again?" Damien looked downcasted. "Please, don't leave. Stay a little longer." Helia and Rendall exchanged glances. They both looked sad too. "We have to go. We have a curse to break," Rendall explained and Damien looked up at him with his eyes glossed with tears. Rendall's heart melted at the sight and he took Damien into his arms and hugged him. "Aunt." Damien turned to Helia with his body still glued to that of Rendall. "Please hug me too." Helia opened her arms and Damien gestured for her to come closer instead. "But—" Damien's face fell, interrupting Helia's protest. She waved her hands in surrender and joined them. Rendall froze as her skin touched his. His heart began to flutter and so did Helia's. At that moment, they both realized that the rejection did not work. Damien smiled to himself when he saw them look at each other. He disengaged from the hug and as he did, Rendall and Helia were in each other's arms without Damien acting as a middl

Mr. Wilkinson smirked at Alpha Janus, brought another pair of eye contacts, and gave it to him."What do you think?" Mr. Wilkinson asked when Alpha Janus wore it and Alpha Janus looked at him."How do you use this? Can you hypnotize simply by looking a person in the eye or do you have to do something else?"Mr. Wilkinson raised an eyebrow as soon as he heard Alpha Janus' question and then he grinned. "Why are you trying to move faster than your shadow?"Alpha Janus was thrown off guard by Mr. Wilkinson's question before he quickly put himself together. "I'm just very curious, you know. I'd really love to know.""You seem—" Mr. Wilkinson's voice trailed off and Alpha Janus frowned.‘Just tell me how to freaking use the Gizmo, stupid human,’ Alpha Janus cursed in his mind."Your thoughts matter too. Just think about it while you lock eyes with whoever you want to hypnotize and boom, he or she would be.""We want to hypnotize every were-creature, remember? Would we begin to look everyone

"Werewolves and witches have a history?" Rendall was shocked."A painful one at that. Haven't you heard any folklore concerning it? Or at least a myth? You werewolves are good at telling fake stories anyways just for storytelling's sake."Rendall scoffed and looked back at the book. "Let's check out what is written in it. Do you think it's because of the history that Nyx cursed Wulfe too?""My mother did a great job by cursing the werewolves. I would have done the same," Helia said."Let's just check the book," Rendall said. He was tired of hearing Helia's complaints.She rolled her eyes, removed the book away from his face, and opened it."What's written in it?" Rendall joined her in checking the book and they both turned white as they flapped through the pages. The book was telling a story.It was a story of how the werewolves had forcefully taken the land of witches away from them.A long time ago, werewolves had no particular land. They formed packs that were ruled by an Alpha. A

"Please, don't send us away," Helia pleaded and Damien's grandfather scowled at her."Get out," he growled. "Daughter of a witch. Heaven knows if she's a witch like her mother. These things must exist in the genes. Your mother killed my only son and my daughter-in-law. I have almost nothing left. You probably want to take all I have away from me.""But—""If you don't leave now, I'd make sure I kill you with my own hands," Damien's grandfather threatened. "It will be fair enough anyways. Nyx kic cflled my son and I killed her daughter.""Sir, we—" "You're pushing me," he growled, interrupting Helia again."We're here because we need to break Nyx's curse," Rendall said quickly before he'd get interrupted by the old man."She cursed you?" "Yes, that wicked witch cursed the both of us and our families too," Rendall answered and Helia glared at him for calling her mother wicked."She did?" The old man's hard expression was beginning to melt."And a demon called Janus too. He is also cal

Helia closed her eyes. Her greatest nemesis had caught up with her without her seeing any way of getting out of it. So, Helia stood, expecting an impact.Suddenly, she heard the sound of a bullet striking flesh. Helia froze. She wondered where the bullet had struck. She wondered if she would die anytime soon. Helia placed her middle finger under her nose to know if she was still breathing. She was. She placed her hands on her chest. Her heartbeat was normal."Does death come this slowly?" Helia asked herself and immediately she felt something lift her. She snapped her eyes open and as she did, she screamed.Peering down at her was a blue-eyed white beast. She batted her lashes as it dawned on her that it was Rendall in his wolf form. She was in the arms of Conri, Rendall's wolf."From frying pan to fire," Helia muttered to herself. She looked away from his face to their surroundings and gasped. Lying on the floor were Alpha Janus and his warriors. They looked lifeless and Helia wond

"You're joking, right?" Rendall frowned as he heard Alecto's words."Joking? Should your father killing Alpha Leander surprise you? You of all people know the kind of person your father is.""But he promised me that he would not kill Leander and Ariela told me she did. Why would Ariela tell me she killed Alpha Leander when she did not.""He he. All I know is that your father has a hand in Helia's father's death.""How do you know the things you know? Who are you?""He he! You'd be the first were-creature to ask who I am. The rest assume they know but I can assure you that I'm not what they think I am.""Then, who are you?""You would know how with time," Alecto smirked. "All you have to know now is to go to the human world to Nyx's house.""Nyx's house? But we—""Helia is on her way there," Alecto chipped in and Rendall did not bother to argue again."Did my father really kill hers?" Rendall looked down at his feet and Alecto heaved a sigh."I warned you not to ask me that it'll hurt.
