Back in the Moon Pack…SARA'S POVIt's been days since I have seen Silas. And as much as I have told myself that I will not be one that will worry my head about him, I just can't help but be worried for his sake. I know that he has hurt me and he is looking for a way to avoid him, but it doesn't make sense at all that he will leave me in the wind at all.As I walked across the stall, disguised as a commoner, I can't help but have this same nolstagic feeling I have. This is the same place that I met Silas for the very first time. He was sweet and I fell for him with the way he defended the poor little wolf. He was nice and I swear that we had a connection. All was going well until recently after my kidnap.Is he worried or did he blame himself for my kidnap?I kept on asking myself.But the truth is that he really could not have predicted the kind of wolf his uncle truly is.But come to think of it too, how much do I know about Silas? I know very little about how he came to be or where
SARA'S POV"Why do I get the feeling that this is about Silas?"His expression changed and I can no longer recognise my father."I…."I stammered. I did not know what to say."Go on with it."Father encouraged me."I just wanted to know your stand with mother. You don't seem to really love her. Haven't you ever been in love?"I asked him.He breathed deeply and sighed. It's as though I brought back a bad memory to him."Sara, I have once loved. There was a wolf I loved with my entire heart. Sadly, our love was not permitted because it is not the standard of our kingdom to marry wolves that are not nobles. So, we didn't work out."Father said."And you married Luna Veronica. And where is this she wolf you wanted to marry?"I asked, full of inquisition."She's not around anymore."He said, sadly."Really? Where did she go to?"I continued probing but by this time, father has had it already."Enough of the chit chat. There is no need to talk about this. You were here for something, what
Back in the forest of Koda…SILAS' POV"Your first task that you are to do here is to study."Lucien said."Study?"I asked. I have never been asked to study in my life. All I have known how to do is to fight and I was really good at it."What the heck am I studying about? You said that I need to learn how to convert my gift into a curse. And by doing that, I will need to learn how to control the elements. So what do I need studying for?"I asked."You are already a skilled wolf and a skilled mage, Silas. However, you lack one thing. You lack the discipline of character. You will learn that here. And, although I am in charge, Mark will be your supervisor."Lucien announced and left.What the hell is going on?I asked myself."What am I going to do?"Saul called after Lucien."Come along with me, Saul. You need to learn how to fight."He replied as Saul excitedly left with him.What the hell just happened? I'm the one that a freaking bomb has been activated on me, yet I'm the one that
SILAS POV"I need to leave here, Mark."I spoke to the sage after one week."What? Why? You have not completed your task."He said."I have been in this tower for over six weeks. I need to stretch my legs. I have consumed more than a hundred materials too. I'm getting overwhelmed with all this. Let me go."It sounded as though I was begging him."It's okay then. We will have a day of break and we will come back the next day."He said.It wasn't near enough, but I will take it.We left the place and I could appreciate the little rays of sun that was able to filter into the forest. I was already becoming accustomed to this place."Where is Saul at?"I asked."He must be with the mages. The ones that are more interested in combat than the dark arts."Mark replied."I want to see him."I said to him,"I don't think it's a good idea. You need to complete your training."He advised."I need to see him."I stressed further.We left for where Saul was.I saw him having a combat lesson with so
SARA'S POVEver since my discussion with Finn, Silas' closest friend, I decided to not bother myself about Silas again. He will be fine wherever he is. He will find a way to get himself out of this mess. I just hope and pray.One month turned to two months and I have not heard from him. Even Father was now getting worried. He has sent quite a number of wolves to search for him but it was as though he has disappeared. "Logan, you are the chief of the wolf's guard. Where did you say he went to?"I overheard father speak to Logan one time."I'm sorry, my Alpha. He said that he needed some time off. He had some personal matters to settle and I just figured that he will not be off for so long. Please, forgive me."He kept on bowing and apologizing."This is arrant nonsense."Father fumed and went away. If I did not know my father well, I'd think that he really liked Silas. This now proves that he did not banish Silas or do anything bad to him."Silas, wherever you are, please make sure yo
SARA'S POVI walked straight to Luna Veronica's chambers and I entered into her meeting without knocking."Mother, what the hell!"I shouted, impulsively.Luna Veronica was taken aback because she must have never seen me react this way to her before. She adjusted her glasses and said to the other Lunas she was having the meeting with."Can you be so kind to excuse me? We will reschedule this meeting to another appropriate time. It seems like I have a business to attend to."She said with such grace and poise. They bowed down and they left the meeting.Mother waited for the last one f them to leave at an appreciable distance before she poured her wrath upon me."What the heck is wrong with you? Don't you have a sense of character? Haven't I trained you enough to know how to courtesy?"She snapped at me."Luna Veronica, I don't care about what you have taught me before now, but I can't have this anymore."I replied."And what has made you so worked up like this?"She asked, feigning con
SARA'S POV I stood in shock as I watched as the little wooden hut that I have helped Bea built engulfed in flames."Oh no!"Damon said."Bea!"I screamed in tears.I could not move but just watch."Sara!"I suddenly hear Bea shouting my name."Bea, stay back! I'm coming for you."Damon responded.He took off my hooded cloth and he moved back to gain momentum.He rushed with full force and broke down the hut.Everywhere we smoky and I could not see anything again. The fire was too much and I can't imagine how anyycan survive this."Damon!"I shouted. I was scared that I'd lose him. It was just at the last moment that I have begun to see who he is behind all the jesting. Damon was really a nice wolf and not like the others. Probably, it would have worked out with the both of us.I felt my knees tremble as I fell to my knees and whimpered."Damon."I cried, softly.And in the twinkling of an eye, embers of flame flew away as he burst out of the burning building as a half wolf and half
SARA'S POV When, Damon stood behind Bea and said,"Here is my special gift."I didn't really get what he meant."What do you mean?"I whispered to him.He announced better."Some weeks ago, my parents and your parents met and they decided to form an alliance. When I later met with them and they told me their plan, like I said to you, I did not like the plan. So, in order for them to get me involved, they promised me the inheritance of the Moon Pack Kingdom when Alpha King Zemo is gone and anything that I wanted at the moment. I told them that it was not necessary but I will love the chance to meet you first. That is why I came here. So, when I met you, I didn't think that I'll need a prize after I met with you. You had already caught my heart, you know? But now that we have an issue, I want to invoke the word that you have to me when we met, Luna Veronica."He said, looking straight to her eyes. He was using his words against her and she can never go against her word. That would go a
SILAS'S POV “Grisha.”I called out to the chief's guard. He wanted to blatantly ignore me, but I kept on calling his name, irrespective. He got frustrated and turned to me.“Beta Silas, when someone does not respond to you, it clearly means that they want to have nothing to do with you.”He said to me, angrily.“I know that, but J really need to confirm something with you.”I said to him. It was obvious that I was not going to let him rest until I have spoken my mind to him, so he allowed me to talk.“What is it?”He asked me.“For how long was I gone for?”The expression on his face showed that he really think that there was something wrong with him.“What is wrong with you?”He asked me.“Would you believe me if I told you that I have no idea how long I was gone for? Would you believe if I told you that I was probably knocked out for most of my journey home?”I asked him.“I see that you always have the perfect excuse for every situation. You just need to thank the gods that the Al
SARA'S POV “So, what do you want to do? Is he going to be your new heir? Or will you just leave him be?”I asked my father as I closed my eyes. I don't even know what to think anymore.“I really do not know. I am scared.”He responded to me. I obviously did not expect that answer from him.“Well, that's the first.”I commented.“Yea.”My father responded. I shifted my gaze back to him.“I want to ask you a sincere question.”“I’m all ears.”“How long have you known that Silas was your son? And is that the reason why you were hell bent on trying to separate us from the onset?”When I asked the question, he shifted his body to face me too. I want to say that this is the closest time I have ever being intimate with my father. I can feel that he can tell me absolutely anything that I ask of him tonight with very little resistance.“I have never known or had the slightest idea that Silas was my son up until the day we got attacked by that creature. I have always felt like he was like a so
SARA'S POV As I moved closer to the infirmary and I was about to enter the entrance, I was accosted by one of the nurses that worked there. She looked very frantic and apprehensive. “What is it, Jane? I thought I asked you not to leave the Alpha's side for a minute. Why are you here?”I demanded from her. “I'm sorry, my princess, but you said that I should not leave the Alpha unless it is an emergency and I'm afraid this is an emergency.”She replied. I did not wait for her to complete her statement. I just pushed her aside and walked to the room where my father was staying and I could not help but be worried about what I would find there. The last time I left his side, there was almost no change in his condition at all and he had slipped back into coma after muttering Silas' name several times. What if he has given up the ghost? There will be a lot of unanswered questions.When I got to the room, instead of seeing an empty bed or father being covered in sheets, I saw him awake and
SILAS'S POV It felt so refreshing to always have a voice that you can communicate with back and forth. A voice that, although is quite aggressive, but will always have your best interest at heart. I will no longer deal with any form of quietness again. It felt oddly peaceful too. But I will get used to it as soon as possible.I looked around the springs of Zadia. The fountain where I drank from said that I would be hallucinating for days, so if this is real and I'm out of the hallucination phase, this would literally mean that I have spent way longer time than I intended to spend here. I needed to catch up.“Are you ready, wolf? I think I need to give you a name, don't you think?”I asked him.“Whatever you say.”“What kind of name do I give you..?”I was thinking, then I remembered the colour of my wolf. I loved how dark and shinny he was when I met him in the void. I know that I just had to give him a unique name. And I think I have just found the name!“I know what I will give you
SILAS'S POV I stood there, starring at my own image. A reflection of myself.“Wow! It's just like staring in the mirror.”He sneered at me.“What is the meaning of this?”I asked. “You can't simply move on if you have not defeated me. I am your alter ego. You will need to kill me to gain control. But you know what? Your alter ego has all your strengths and lacks all your weaknesses. Strength, the ability not to hold back, lack of empathy and emotions, I have them all. That is what will always make me stronger than you.”He said, drawing out his sword from the thin air, ready to strike me.“Don't be too sure about that, Silas 2.0. I will do anything to get out of here.”I responded, fashioning out my won sword from the thin air, also ready to strike myself. We looked deeply into each other and we ran towards each other to attack. Our blades struck each other and made a vibrating sound that echoed all round the entire void. The battle between selves has begun. The energy from the blad
SARA'S POV I paced to and fro all day in my bedroom. I had left the infirmary, telling the nurse to keep a close guide on my father as I wanted to take a break. I had hardly left his side for more than two hours since the incident. This is day four already and it looks still the same. I hope Silas comes very soon.But that was not the very bane of my restlessness this afternoon. Bea had gone to school for young and royally wolves so I had time all to myself. The reason for my worry was the last statement father has uttered in his sleep yesterday's evening. He mentioned three names; in which two of them are unfamiliar. He mentioned Althea and Saul with Silas. But I knew that I must have heard of Althea before. It sounded like a name that I must have come across before. Where have I heard that name from?It suddenly clicked to me. There is the story of a brave and young warrior and werewolf that was told in our Luna school. The first female celebrated war hero in the Moon Pack kingdom.
SILAS'S POV“You are not the saviour of the world; you are the saviour of the witches. You are the Hannuk.”Agnes laughter echoed around the void, so did the others that were with her too. This was a very uncomfortable situation, but I will find a way.“So, what now?”I asked her.“Now, we are glad that we lured you here. This will give us the full ground to possess your body and you will be just like a puppet to bring salvation to my own tribe.”They began to laugh hysterically again. They just basked in the laughter that I even began to chuckle too. When they were done, I started my own round of laughter too. This made them all quiet and Agnes looked quite confused. She didn't know what game I was playing. Even I did not know what I was doing at that moment. I just needed to stall to find the right hack.“What are you doing?”Agnes asked me.“Well, I'm laughing. Am I not supposed to laugh at the whole joke that is going on all around?”I asked.“What joke?”She asked.“All I know is
SILAS'S POV “So, this is the void?”I asked the truth seeker as I stared at the endless space of nothingness around me.“Welcome to the void.”He said to me as he spread out his arms. I still was a bit confused.“What do I do from here?”I asked.“Me? I'm done with my assignment. My assignment was to make this journey easier for you by facing the truth. Now that you have faced the truth, my work is now done. I wish you success in your quest.”He said to me and disappeared quickly before I could even protest.“Great! Now, I'm stuck here.”I said, staring around with no idea of what to do at all. I looked all around trying to look for clues, but everything stayed the same. There was nothing that I saw that was different.“I need to keep going anyway. I need to do something.”I said to myself as I moved on. I just kept walking in the endless void. What am I supposed to be doing here in the first place? I am supposed to find a way to separate every parts of me and find a way to master ho
SARA'S POV “I will never let anything happen to you. Not Silas, not the Luna or anyone else. I'm here for you all the way.”I was saying to my own father as I looked at him. I can't believe that I almost absconded with Silas a few weeks ago because I was upset with him. What if something worse had happened to him when we left? Why if Silas was not there to protect him because I was just selfish and wanted him all to myself?“I'm sorry, father. I'm sorry for trying to run away. I don't know what I was thinking.”I said, crying to him. Now to think of it, how much can I even trust Silas? Is that why he changed his behaviour towards me when he first found out that I'm his sister? Or am I just truly imagining things? Is he really my own half brother? If that is true, it has got to be very sickening and any feelings I have for him my be dropped now.“No! He can't be my brother.”I said, decisively. I have really fallen for him too much to believe that he may actually even be my brother. I
