AMARA held Custodio's hand. She interlocked their hands and smiled as she looked at it. Then she looked up at the face of her beloved man. He was looking at her too, gazing at her beautiful face.

"When I was young, my dream was to become the most powerful witch in our generation. That was supposed to be just a dream, but it turned into an obsession. I was always under pressure because of my parents. According to them, I should be the only one to possess that position, and no one else. And as for my older brother, when he got a girlfriend, he neglected me under the care of our parents, who constantly forced me to do things I didn't want to do," she said, staring at the slightly illuminated sky.

According to her parents, in order for her to win the competition for that position, she had to lose any trace of mercy. So her parents made her hurt innocent animals to infuse a little evil into her blood. Every day, she was forced to go hunting for animals because she thought it was the right t

  • Before Us   Prologue

    It was a ceremonious night when Matilda bore her child. The moon shone bright in the dark sky for the most powerful white witch, the 15th generation of their race. At the sound of the newborn’s cry, a loud wail was heard. It echoed around the place, scaring all the birds that had been watching kindly beside them. The loud wail was even followed by small ominous growls like that of a beast. Orlando was alarmed because of it. Matilda clinged on Orlando’s arm as she felt the black power coming from Amara. Orlando glanced at her as if they were thinking the same thing. He immediately stood up and placed a brown cape around Clara, his nine year old daughter. Then, he handed her his newborn daughter. The brown cape will serve as their protection from Amara. It will prevent its wearer from releasing their power and it will hide them from the sight of any powerful being. It is a family heirloom, passed on from generation to generation to whoever was the most powerful white witch living in

    I STARED at the big painting in front of me. It was attached to the white wall of my bedroom. It was a painting of my late parents' faces. My parents, whom Ihad never had the chance to be with since I was born.Despite that, I never felt what it's like to be an orphan. I always have my older sister, Clara, with me who has also been both a mother and a father to me. In fact, I grew up being rich because of her endeavor and perseverance. She was able to build a company that sells beauty products here in the Philippines. It's called Ever Beauty and now, it is the leading and most successful company in the country. Almost everyone loves our products because of their effectiveness and affordable price. We were even able to export our products and sell them to other countries. Sometimes, I wonder how Clara was able to do all that by herself. I wonder how she was able to know how to use plants for cosmetics and make-up when she only studied and graduated from a normal school. One time, I as

    FROM where I’m sitting inside the classroom, I can clearly see the wide plaza of our school, the Mabini College, through the window. Out there you could see a group of fourth year college students happily playing baseball by themselves.Their bags are all placed on a blue bench just right in front of them. The other benches surrounding the plaza are all occupied by girls watching them play with admiration in their eyes, especially for Akira.I just watched Akira’s every move. From the time he hit the ball until he ran around, my full attention was focused on him. Even before, it has always been a habit of mine to watch what goes around the plaza through the window, but today is different. It’s all because all my eyes could see is Akira. It all started since that juice accident happened.THE moment I turned my gaze on the man who spilled his mango juice on my Birkin bag, my eyes first landed on his brown eyes. I was stunned for a moment. This is the first time I had the chance to have a

    MY eyes fluttered open when I felt something light hit my face. I picked up the crumpled paper and then threw it back outside the window of my bedroom. I stood up from my interrupted sleep and headed towards the open window of my room.I put my head out to see who it was and out there, I saw Jeremy and Lance. Lance wore an emotion on his face that I couldn’t understand while sitting on a large rock, while Jeremy is sitting on a hammock, holding the crumpled sheet of paper that I threw at him earlier while rocking his hammock hard. I see that’s why Lance was frowning all this time. It’s because Jeremy stole his favorite spot.“It’s good that you are awake, Mr. Loverman. If I didn’t accidentally push you towards Jennifer, you would still be admiring her from afar until now, hoping when your love for her would be reciprocated,” Jeremy teased his friend.“Idiot, that’s uncool,” Lance replied.“You’re just jealous because I stole your favorite spot,” Jeremy fostered.“It’s too early.

    “BYE, sis!” Jennifer hurriedly bid her goodbye, with Lorilyn beside her. Before walking away, they waved at me. I smiled and nodded at them in return. The two of them were only wearing casual clothes. They don’t have classes today. They just have to care about their graduation practice. I smiled at myself. If my parents could see us right now, I’m sure that they would be happy. I managed to do everything by myself and raise Jennifer better than fine. Thanks to my powers, it paved the way towards the life that I have now. Without it, I won’t have all these blessings that we have now. When I was young, I lived surrounded by nature in a place where nothing but witches live. And now, I realized that it’s more fun to live along with humans. Life is better around here. This is my own definition of the real world. In reality, witches and other strange and powerful beings are like humans, too. The only difference we have from them is that we have powers or special abilities. I remember

    “What a beautiful place!” I exclaimed in amazement. The werewolf took me to a mini farm here in the mountains.Trees of various kinds are planted on a small patch of land . Who would plant these trees in this remote place?I went down from his back. After that he shifted into his human form. Oh my god! I accidentally saw his thing.I shut my eyes close in frustration. I want to scold him, but I don’t know what I’m supposed to tell him – nevermind.Just like what I did earlier, I gave him new clothes again. This time, I imagined some plain t-shirt and jeans to give him the look that he had wanted.“Welcome to my farm!” He proudly said as he showed his farm with his arms wide open.“You did all this?” I asked him doubtfully.“Believe me or not, I’m the one who planted all these fruits and vegetables.”“Why are you not in your pack?” I asked curiously. He sat on the grass and stared at his farm. His face looked so serene.“I’m a rogue now. I was kicked off by the Beta’s son.” He

    As soon as Akira caught sight of me, he leapt from his seat on the bench and approached me with a smile. He had a broad grin on his face. When he was able to get within touching distance of me, he first kissed my forehead and then both of my cheeks. I couldn't help but crack a smile at his very kind action."It's so sweet!" We both looked at her because of what she said.She continued by saying, "Of the candy that I am eating," after which she laughed and smiled at us. To get her to stop, all I had to do was pull on her short hair. Because of the tingle I'm experiencing, my face is starting to redden, and I don't want Akira to see me like this because it's embarrassing. My face is starting to look like a tomato.We traveled to the location that was being shared by Akira and his two closest friends, Jeremy and Lance. By the way, Lorilyn had a frowning expression on her face when she saw her former suitor.It had been nearly a week since Lance's previous disclosure to Lorilyn that he in

    "AMARA!" I called out loudly to her. She paused in the midst of swinging her black sword behind our new Alpha.Akira stood up and noticed her intense weakness. But she tried to stay in her position to protect Clara and Vince. Vince lay on the ground with his head resting on Clara's lap. He had a large wound on his side. Clara couldn't stop crying as she tried to heal Vince's wound, even though she knew it would deplete all her energy.Amara's weapon slowly disappeared from her grasp. I noticed her previously dark eyes becoming even darker. I smiled at her. Finally, after so many years of waiting, I saw her again. Although I often saw and sometimes accompanied her younger version, her true current age and mindset were different. Even in old age, her beauty still prevailed.However, my smile vanished when I saw her being attacked by a purple-colored wolf. How unusual! It was the first time I had seen such a wolf. I could sense that it was not just a werewolf but also had witch blood. Fea

    "YOU'RE just a Luna, but you're brave enough to face me in a fight. Aren't you afraid for your life?" Amara mocked me.I was the only child of two unmated individuals who later died of illness because of my birth. I was adopted by my father's close friend, who happened to be a high-ranking soldier in our Alpha's pack, and he became Akira's father. I grew up being able to do whatever I wanted without any objections from my adoptive father.When I first saw my mate, Akira, I immediately admired him, and over time, my feelings for him grew deeper. Loving him from a distance was enough for me because I believed that eventually, he would come to me and love me back. But I was wrong. He fell in love with another woman. Was I afraid of losing him? No. He deserves to love who he chooses, and I deserve a man who will love me back, not just because we're mates and compelled to love each other due to our bond.And now, facing Amara, I don't feel any fear of dying at her hands. The only thing I fe

    MY vision became blurry as I woke up and opened my eyes. There was a flashlight shining on my face. When my eyes adjusted, I saw Dani. She removed the flashlight from my face and placed it next to me without turning it off.She helped me get up. My whole body still hurt. I looked at my wounds, which were now covered with white cloth. There was no sign of blood on my body, only on the stained clothes."It would be easier for you to regain your strength and heal your wounds if I did it the natural way, but I still value my life. It's difficult to anger a witch who is also a werewolf," Dani jokingly said to me.I couldn't help but smile at the thought of Jennifer's reaction if she saw Dani did that thing to me. Now that we were together again, her face would surely turn into a mix of surprise and jealousy, just like when she saw us together before. She was cute when she was jealous."By the way, thanks for coming," I said to her."Of course I came because you were in danger. I used to thi

    "AMARA!"Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew. The wind destroyed structures standing all around. The damage was extensive. The screams of the people affected by the destruction could be heard everywhere. Even though it was only afternoon, the sky quickly darkened along with everything that was happening. I could hardly see anything around me.I didn't know where I landed, but I was sure it was far away from where I started. I held onto my left thigh because it was in pain from being trapped under the heavy debris that had fallen from the houses. I tried to transform into a wolf, but my body couldn't handle it. So, I had no choice but to use my powers.I focused my palm on the large object resting on my left leg. I unleashed my power and slowly lifted it off the ground. Then, I directed my hand in the opposite direction and with all the force of my power, I pushed the object away from me.Using my powers, I conjured orange magical dust that glowed, creating a faint light in the surroun

    "THIS is the map of the entire place," Akira said as he laid out a map on the table that he had been holding rolled up earlier.I looked closely at the contents of the map. With the numerous locations and its vastness, it seemed like we would have a hard time searching, especially since there was no specific place where Amara was said to be residing. Furthermore, no one had seen her for a long time. She may already be dead. I don't know! Sometimes, I just want to go crazy and cry out of anger and frustration because I don't know how to find her and if there's even a chance for that to happen."Let's start with the two forests in this area. Those are the most common places a witch like her could possibly reside," Ate Clara suggested.We decided to split into two groups. Akira and I would go together, while Ate Clara, Kuya Vince, and his sister would form the other group. Akira and I chose to explore the Light Woods, while the three of them decided to go to the Dark Woods. It was said th

    "JENNIFER, wait!" I heard Akira call my name.I stopped running. My heart was beating fast when I heard him call me. Does he already remember me? I turned slowly to face him, and his always handsome face greeted me."Can you repeat what you just said?" I asked. I just wanted to make sure I heard it correctly. Or maybe I was just imagining things."I said, wait," he said. He walked towards me, and as he got closer, a wide smile appeared on his lips. He held both of my shoulders."Not that. Repeat what you called me!" I said, a bit annoyed."Jennifer? Is that it?" he asked with a smile."Oh, so you remember me now?" I confirmed."You're my girlfriend who's always mood was like as if you were on your monthly period," he teasingly replied.I should be emotional in this situation. I should be crying and hugging him because his memories have returned. But the opposite is what I feel. Now, I'm angry because of his teasing. All I want to do now is scold him."So, is it true that you tried to m

    "IS your strength coming back?" My father asked me while we were eating in front of the dining table. I paused while chewing and glanced briefly at him."Not completely yet," I replied before continuing to eat. The deafening silence reigned between the two of us once again.Currently, only Dad and I are having dinner tonight. Dani should be with us tonight, but I asked her to let Dad and me have this evening together. The truth is, I want to distance myself from Dani for now. I would prefer that over being together with her, but I don't treat her as a girlfriend, just a friend.One day when I woke up, I felt like I forgot something or left something behind. I couldn't figure out what it was. Was it an object, a person, or a memory? Since that day, it feels like I'm always groping in the dark. Like there's always something missing in me. And then that girl suddenly appeared in my life. I can't deny that I feel something unexplainable for her. Especially when I see her smile, as if I've
