FATED TO MY UNCLE 16. THE FIRE
~ISSAThey shrieked as I came at them. One of them sent a vine at Iran's neck but he was fast. He dodged. He was like a blur, escaping all their attacks as he came at them in all his glory. I felt like a spectator, watching everything happen from Iran's eyes. He revealed his claws and grabbed one of the witches. She was cloaked in black just like her companion and she screamed even louder than before. This caught Iran off guard and he released her while trying to shield his ears from the sound. In his moment of weakness, the second witch took up the opportunity and sent a vine of darkness at his neck.Iran groaned as the vine closed around him and I went down on my knees from within. I might have been an observer but I could feel every pain that he felt. The witch pulled us into the darkness while Iran released a roar in an attempt to break free. But the first witch recovered and sent her own vine of darkness to Iran. "Not so tough now. . ." They whispered in a sickening voice t

~YULIAI froze in my tracks as I registered the man who was supposed to be my uncle— before me. Seeing Issa shirtless, wet with sweat— was the last thing I had expected. The emotions in his eyes resembled that of a broken man. It was as if a violent storm was raging within them. They were fixed onto mine in such a way that made my intake of breath unsteady. Suddenly, he took a step toward me and I instinctively backed away. He picked up his pace with an urgency that made me question his intentions. My wolf panicked and I widened my eyes at him, preparing myself— stilling myself for what was to come. Yet when he got close enough, he shocked me with his next move. He pulled me into his arms. He wrapped his arms around me without uttering a word once and my eyes only grew wider. Since when was Issa so caring? Why on earth was he hugging me? And of course, my treacherous wolf began to relax against his warmth. His entire essence filled me and went up my nose in such a way that he

~YULIA"I will rip all your hearts apart!" I jumped in my spot and my mouth instantly went dry. I helplessly watched as all their faces began to turn pale with fear— maids and guards alike. There was no telling what Iran was going to do to them. He was losing control. "Who did it?" He demanded again and his words almost made me lose my balance. I looked from the maids to Issa. Even if someone was willing to say anything, I doubted if they would be able to utter a word under this condition. "Fine, I'll help you decide," he whispered ever so calmly yet in such a dangerous way that my legs refused to move. He grabbed a maid and she began to whimper on the spot. My heart sank when I realised that he was going to kill her. I looked to Miles, hoping that he would intervene but the man remained rooted to his spot. I did not know it when my legs developed a mind of their own and pushed me forward. "Iran!" I yelled and almost slapped myself for daring to confront him.He shot his crims

~ISSAI raced back to my room, my heart pounding so hard— it seemed as though it would disconnect itself from the veins connecting it to the rest of my body.I felt like a character in a horror movie, pursued by a ghost. But in my case, I was running from something— someone who wasn’t present but whose memory haunted my entire existence. As soon as I entered my room, I slammed the door shut so hard that the loud banging sound echoed throughout my room. “Breathe Issa,” I whispered to myself— my hands still on the knob with my forehead resting on the door as I listened to my pounding heartbeat.Slowly, I backed away from the door till I reached my bed and sat on it. I looked down at the key in my hand and my body trembled violently as the thought of him crossed my head again.“Stop!” I screamed as I buried my head in my palms, trying to shut the awful voice playing in my head."You're worthless!" Echoes of his voice rang through my head. "You can't do anything right!" Yelled the voic

~YULIA“I never went to the garden.” I folded my arms at him while shaking my head slowly. He stared straight into my eyes and my wolf danced aggressively within me as his forest green eyes seemed to glow.He was definitely crazy— probably losing his mind.“Can’t you see that you are hurt and there is blood all over your clothes? How do you suppose all that happened?” He demanded softly, his voice gentle like the breeze on a summer night.I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out. He was right. There were blood stains on my clothes and my head spun like it was in a wheel.I suddenly felt unsafe and simply wanted to be left alone.He stretched his hands to touch me but I flinched away; scared that he was playing tricks on my mind, scared that he was only looking for a way to ignite a dangerous fire between us, one that wouldn’t be quenched easily.“Don’t touch me!” I yelled and rose to leave his side. But a piercing pain passed through my head and I fell again.I closed my eyes

~ISSA"What? Have you lost your mind?" Yulia screamed and I was taken aback by her outrage. She glared daggers at me and I just knew that if she had the power to burn people with her eyes, then my body would have lit up in flames.“I would never move in with you!” She yelled while getting off the bed this time.She staggered and almost fell. Her fingers were shivering and her face was pale. The drugs the pack healer had administered to her had not finished its work but she just wouldn’t listen.I stood up and wanted to run to her but she darted her fingers at me, signifying me to stop.“Why are you being so stubborn, Yulia? Can’t you see that I am doing all I can for your safety?” My hands were in the air, trying to make her see things from my point of view.As I spoke, I attempted once again at approaching her but for each step I took forward, she retreated two steps back every time.“Stay where you are! Don’t

~YULIAIssa stared back at me nervously. There was an uncertainty within his eyes. He looked like someone who liked to read people and it probably made him furious that he could not easily read me. I sighed inwardly and focused back on the task at hand. I couldn’t believe it myself that I was considering his offer but there was nothing I could do.“Yulia. . .” He took a step closer.His gaze, his eyes. Everything seemed to burn with a passion that made my heart race. There was this look in them that felt so good and awkward at the same time, I just couldn’t name it.Having him stare at me this way made me speechless, gosh! He could literally take my breath away without moving a muscle. “We. . . We would not share the same bed, under no circumstances.”“Really? Is that all you want?” He asked as if he had expected more from me. Shit! I should have been more demanding. Perhaps I pushed my luck to ask for luxury. Stupid Yulia! Yara stirred in disapproval but I did not let that gove

~YULIAThere was a silent pause for a while as I waited for the black box to speak again. “Hello, I am Alexa, your virtual assistant and new best friend! And who are you?” It asked.I heaved a sigh of relief when I finally understood what it was and my heartbeat slowed down to its usual pace. I had realised I wasn’t in trouble. Hearing too much witch talk recently must have made me super anxious.I had read about these virtual assistants in school. It was no threat. Could never be one, hopefully. “I am Yulia, and I want to take my bath.”“It’s nice to meet you, Yulia, would you like me to stream any of your favorite music while you take your bath?” Its voice was cheerful and I could not help but smile at it. “Yeah sure, play me. . .” I paused. I could have easily named a song from some of my favorite artists but I didn’t.The virtual assistant thought it was Issa earlier and wanted to play his favorite song.

FATED TO MY UNCLE 147. TRUE LIES
~ISSA A shocked murmur overtook the whole court. “Decorum please!” Davina’s magically amplified voice rang out through the court. I looked over at Yulia and Miles, who both had anxious expressions etched on their faces. Jamal was the most confused and I could translate the look on his face. He was facially wondering what the hell I was doing.I believed that the whole court was more concerned as to why I admitted to my guilt without hesitation or remorse. Even Petr himself watched me with a bit of worry. He, like everybody else, had assumed that I was going to deny his claim.“Alpha Petr Rasputin, would you let the court know your grievances towards Lycan Frostwood?” Davina said.Petr cleared his throat, glad that he was finally the centre of attention. He made use of the space that the oval floor gave him.“Ladies, gentlemen, werewolves, witches and other creatures of the night. What separates us from animals?” Petr began. “The ability and the principle to stand by our words

~ISSA“It should not have ended this way, Issa. We could have solved this amicably like gentlemen.” Petr said, but I heard no regret.“Bullshit, you wanted to let this play out exactly this way,” Miles spat with open disdain.Petr and Olga looked over at Miles with obvious disgust. “Who said he could speak?” Olga asked coldly.“You will let your second talk to me this way, Issa, such disrespect,” Petr spat.“I am here because of your disrespect, Petr, and you made a mistake believing that this council will help your cause, you will learn and you will learn the hard way.” I never broke away from his gaze as I spoke. “Why is it so hard to see that we only want what we were promised?” Olga asked. Her twin daughters were looking so uncomfortable as the tense conversation went on.“But is it what your daughters really want?” Yulia spoke out. “It’s so obvious that they do not want to be here, look at them.”That was when Olga turned a hard glare at Yulia.“Nobody asked for your opinion, O
FATED TO MY UNCLE A COURT OF LIES AND TRUTH
~ISSAI wore my best attire. If I was going to be judged, I may as well look good when it was happening. Ironically, I was feeling excited by the fact that a council that I made was going to put me on the stand. I looked at myself in the mirror, trying to see if I still recognized the Lycan standing in the reflection.“The waiting is killing me,” Yulia complained for the thirty eighth time today. This was due to her being nervous about the whole thing. The Court was only active at night, so we had to wait through the day. “The audacity!” Miles thundered as he paced back and forth. “Do they know who the fuck you are? I mean, I know but I don’t think they do.”I smiled. I could understand that my second in command was feeling a bit disrespected but rules were rules and I made them, so I had no choice but to follow them.“They will tonight, you can bet on that,” I replied. My phone rang for the eleventh time today but I ignored it. I knew who was calling and I had no intention of sp
FATED TO MY UNCLE 144. MOONHEART II
~YULIA“It all begins with a goddess,” Albus began. I listened to the chancellor of Canis with deep rapt attention, afraid that if I got distracted once, I could miss some important part of his story.“This goddess belonged to the wolfkind as their matron deity and they honoured and worshipped her, even going as far as to ask her for guidance. Every once in a while, to show her divine generosity, she bestowed her children with a special gift,” he paused and stared at me.I frowned. Did this gift have anything to do with me?“This goddess was of the Moon and she was called Lunaria. Her gift was that of eternal light. Whoever was bestowed this gift had the power of Light and if well trained could perform all sorts of feats. But this power was only given to the wolves.” Albus stopped again and downed his cup of tea before he continued.Lunaria… I felt a deep connection to the name and a light force surged through me again. “Lunaria bestowed her powers to the queen of Craven Grove Wolf

~YULIA“We should go,” I whispered to Issa as I pulled him towards the door. He was still gazing at Deucalion with eyes of steel and I had to pull him a bit before he reluctantly moved.As we reached the door, Deucalion called after us, his voice infuriating as he spoke. “Tell her who she really is, Issa, she deserves to know that much before we come for her.”I wanted us out of there before Issa unleashed his unstable wolf at everyone in the house. Simmering with rage, Issa literally stomped down stairs and I followed him.“Issa! Wait,” Iris called after us. But Issa did not stop and neither did I. “Please!” Iris persisted. “What?” Issa thundered as he turned around. Even I was a bit startled by his angry outburst. Andrea was beside her sister with an embarrassed look. “You know that we mean you no harm, right?” Iris said. “We had no idea he was hiding such a dark secret from us.”“Tell him to prepare himself, if he believes that I am just going to take this without a fight, he s
FATED TO MY UNCLE OATHBOUND
~YULIAI felt a bit light headed as those words left Deucalion's mouth. Helena Craven was the first child of light. But it still did not explain why she wanted me dead. Or what she needed my blood for.“I think I need a drink,” Andrea broke the silence and went to her father’s cabinet. Iris had a distracted look while Leia just kept quiet. “How did she lose her powers?” Issa asked.“She was born with those powers, Issa. And she could do amazing things with them. She could burn anything to a crisp just like Ms. Moonshadow here almost did to Iris,” Deucalion said. “And if we are going to continue this discussion, I think you should tell her what her real name is and her family.”He said this to Issa. I looked at Issa. “What is he talking about?” “That is between me and her, Deucalion, not in front of your daughters,” Issa replied curtly. ‘I will tell you everything when we get home, not here,’ he mentally told me. I understood his precaution. The less the craven sisters knew about
FATED TO MY UNCLE 141. LUNA CRAVEN
~ISSAIt was the first time I saw Deucalion actually look nervous as he poured himself a drink. We were all in his big study waiting for him to start talking. I realized that even his daughters had no idea that their mother was alive.“What is she talking about, Daddy?” Leia asked in a shaky voice. “You told us mom died.”Deaucalion sighed. “Clearly, I lied,” he replied as he walked to the large window overlooking the garden in his huge backyard.The room instantly went cold at this revelation. No one said a word for a while as we all took our time to process this information. His daughters glared at him with the feeling of utter betrayal in their eyes.“Why?” Iris demanded in a tight voice, as she was the first person to recover.. Deucalion shook his head. It was as if he was in a nightmare and wanted to wake up by all means.The doors to the study suddenly burst open with Andrea and a man passionately kissing and moaning. I did not think they noticed us as they grabbed and rubbed
FATED TO MY UNCLE 140. FRIEND OR FOE II
~YULIA“He really wants your seed so bad; he is involving the council?” I asked Issa as he sped down the highway. “This is so ridiculous,” I added in annoyance.Issa sighed and made no reply. I could see that he was deeply thinking of what to do. “You can not refuse this can you?” I asked.“Unfortunately, no,” He replied. “There has to be law and order or else everyone will just do whatever they want. That was why the council was made. To keep everyone in line and it will speak badly of me if I do not follow it. Not that I care.”Clearly, he did care and he was just in denial. I understood that, Issa being who he was, hated being told what to do, especially by those that he knew were beneath him but he had to lead by example.“I find this suspicious though,” he said. “Petr could have made this move immediately I turned him away but he waited until we both found out about Helena.”“You think he is part of it?” I asked.“I know that he is part of it, I just need to make the connection.”
FATED TO MY UNCLE 139. FRIEND AND FOE
~ISSAI was not surprised that the dead don’t ever stay dead. I was surprised that the dead wanted what was mine. Helena Craven was alive and that only meant two things. Deucalion lied to me or he was unaware that his Luna had cheated death. Either way, I was going to get to the bottom of whatever the fuck was going on.What did Helena Craven want with Yulia? Why did she kill my sister? The Craven family had a deep dark secret and I would do anything in my power to find out what they were hiding.“Are you okay?” Yulia’s voice invaded my thoughts as I drove home. “You look sad.”I frowned at her, puzzled at what she said. “I have a sad face?” I asked in disbelief.“I think you forget that emotions are part of your being, Issa, even if you do not believe it.” She sounded genuine as she watched me.. “I feel betrayed,” I told her. “Helena is supposed to be dead but now that I am hearing she is behind all these, I do not know what to think.”I pulled into the driveway of the beach hous
