#Chapter75How The Raven Came To Be Known-01Once we reached the clearing, the view in front of me awed me at the same time, something in me told me that there was something so wrong with it. I could see a lot of people out in the field, man, women and Children alike. But they were all on their knees probably forced by the mans or the man like wolves that stood behind them either surrounding them in a protective barrier or imprisoning them. But I think it was the latter. As their eyes looked our way, some men on their knees started growling and tried getting up. But the men behind them forced them back down on their knees, either pushing their shoulders back down or kicking them when they tried to fight back. That confirmed that I was in fact correct. These people were forced out here. But I still didn’t know why.When we got closer to them. The man from before changed back to his human form and got dressed followed by the rest except for the wolf holding me. The man went ba
#Chapter76How The Raven Came To Be Known-02All those people who stopped struggling had their entire focus solely on me now. Their faces clear with confusion but also with fear? The wolf who was pinning me was now a few feet apart, baring its fangs at me. I had managed to push him off me. Unlike them I was standing on my two feet. To me it seemed as if I was taller than them and I stood looking down at those huge beasts. Then I looked down, I saw my legs covered in white furs. My feet elongated, strong, bones outlining the thin skin and my nails sharp as a claw.I had no time to be surprised at the turn of events as I looked around me, then all I saw was red. I could see far clearer than my human eyes did. I felt a surge of energy inside of me. And I felt a bloodthirsty Agnes begging to be free. When my eyes landed back to a pained Aya, I set her free.My feet/paws shuddered as it hit the ground. I was fast. Unbelievably fast. It held a destructive force. In no time, I was f
#Chapter77A Raven’s PromiseOvertime we stumbled upon a few rouges, here and there who decided to form a pack with us. We built few more houses, trained and hunted together. Well they did, while I played a rogue human. True to her word, Aya trained hard. She became the best fighter we had. She became fierce. She was fire. The shy, scared little girl was no more. But she could never hide from me. For me, she will always be the sweet little girl that I used to wonder the woods with, even though she was much bigger than me now. I would always make her loosen her up as much as possible because she had built a wall so high that no one could ever dare to cross. She was as much of an Alpha now as she was before. Judging by the way she acts and commands, even more so now.I was stronger with Agnes but not so much without. So, I trained myself so hard that I was physically undefeatable even in my human form. The day I learned to conceal, I masked my presence, my scent, my being, eve
#Chapter78Who Makes Amara A RavenAs I predicted, four of them decided to leave a week after and the two of them stayed for a further week before they finally thought to let us know that they too, will leave the very next day. Now all that’s left was Aya and me and the forever dark, green and cold woods. We decided that tomorrow at dawn we too will leave. Although I am very fond of these woods, I know that I cannot be selfish and keep Aya here just because I felt safe here. Someone out there was waiting for Aya and this sister of mine refuses to leave my side so for her sake, I will go out there. Aya will be eighteen in a few weeks. Cause I don’t know anything about my birth, judging by my looks and my childish behaviour, Aya decided that I was a year or so younger than her. Oh, the irony.She says there is someone that’s made for me out there too. She says that the moon goddess did not forget about me. But I know that there is no such thing as a mate or the one for me
#Chapter79Raven: A Ball of Fire? Or Earth?I discovered that I could control the nature as we struggled to build a house back then. Frustrated that even with all these powers, I could not do anything to help us, I left to relieve some tension. And Aya being Aya followed me around.Due to the limited words in my vocabulary, I don’t know why but I felt very much tempted to release it on those poor trees. Whatever wrong they had done to me. I screamed loudly and ran to punch the bark of one of the trees. I watched as a piece of it flung over and landed on the ground beside Aya who was standing with her mouth gaping wide open that even a raven could fly in. Her brown eyes became even lighter as she witnessed what unfolded in front of her eyes.As I turned back to look, a gasp escaped my mouth and I stumbled a few steps back. There, where I landed the punch on the tree, grew a lot more branches with green leaves to replace its loss. When the initial shock left me, I slowly took t
#Chapter80Raven On Her JourneyThe man or the wolf she just pushed away, grabbed her injured arm and hauled her up. Her weak legs dangled with no strength to keep herself up. She winced in pain and tried to yank her arm off. She could have succeeded had the red eyed man not grabbed her by the other arm and the man with blue eyes not pulled her head back by grabbing a handful of her hair. She let out a snarl. Not a painful one but one filled with a promise to kill them all, if she got a chance.The werewolf whose back was still facing us, slowly took calculating steps towards them until he was directly in front of her. “You leave us no choice sweetheart. Oh, how I wanted to taste that vicious lips of yours, just once.” He held his hand to feel her lips on his fingertips. But once his fingers were close to her lips, she snapped her mouth, almost biting his fingers off.He laughed. “Feisty, are we? I would have loved to taste you.” He moves closer to her ear to whisper. But she
#Chapter81Shut Up, RavenExhaustion was now taking over my body as I laid next to the girl, flat on her back. Her bruises had already started to heal, a darkish yellow was taking now its place. She looked so peaceful almost as if she was just sleeping, not drugged or almost beaten to death. Aya checked for any more injuries on her but found none that needed tending. Her arm that was bleeding was healing at an incredible rate. Apart from that she had no physical injuries however I cannot say anything about the drug she ingested.The unbearable tiredness clouded my eyes as I look up to the wooden roof. “Raven, rest for a while. I’ll try to keep an eye out for now.” I heard Aya’s footstep fade away. My heavy eyelids shut itself close and the blankness overcame my conscious. I heard a groan beside me. As the memories from before I passed out, came flooding in, I sat up straight and scanned my eyes around the room. My eyes landed on Aya who seemed to be wide awake as well. S
#Chapter82 Raven A BeastThe word still means nothing to me while Aya lets out a gasp. She’s clearly shocked. She looks down at me with my lips still clamped shut.I know that look. That look doesn’t mean anything good. Oh boy.“I’m taking it as you know about Lycans then.” She continues as I turn to look back at her. “Well I should be embarrassed that a werewolf” then she looks at me as I arch one brow higher, “and of course a human saved my life.”“But I’m thankful to you, for saving me ladies. I guess, I’m indebted to you now.” She chuckles softly.“At least tell us why those werewolves were after you?” Aya insists. The girl looks at the wooden roof as she replies, “Cause of who I am.” “Who are you?” My big mouth decides to open up. She looks at me but doesn’t reply to my question, “By the way, how did you come across this cottage? It doesn’t look old. In fact, it looks fresh, I can even smell how fresh it is. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought you gu
