Verena opened her eyes; the room still felt unfamiliar, no matter how long she stayed in it. She looked around to find Zoren, but he was nowhere to be seen. That was quite a surprise; she always sees him waiting for her to open her eyes, but now she can't find the man that was supposed to be holding her arm.

"Zoren?" she whispered, trying to get his attention. However, as the door swung open, it was not him who entered. A woman wearing a very interesting brown dress came in. Her long, light brown hair flows all the way down to her waist, and she was so beautiful that Verena felt a little shy that she had to see her in that state.

"Hello," the woman said, waving her hand. "My name is Barbara, Prince Zoren’s friend. She gave Verena a slight smile and walked all the way to her. "Zoren entrusted you to me since he had to come to a banquet as a celebration for him coming back home. I hope you understand."

"Oh, Barbara, was it?" She unconsciously wiped the sides of her eyes and mouth, just

    "Verena, how have you been?" Zoren sat beside her, holding her hand as soon as he was able to. It was as if he was relieved. The whole day that he spent outside socializing with his people had exhausted him so much that being with her felt like he was finally able to rest. He took a very deep breath and leaned over her to give her a tight squeeze. "Verena, are you feeling better today?""How was the celebration? Did you have fun?""I did not have fun," he responded. "It would have been better if you were there, having fun with me. To have you enjoying it with me would be more exciting and more comfortable, knowing that you are seeing it all as well.""It was fine, Zoren; I don’t need to tag along. I know that it's just going to be weird if I came with you. And of course, I am still trying to regain my strength, so it’s only best to not push myself, right?" Verena rolled over to the other side almost as if she was trying to avoid Zoren. She wanted to refrain from talking to him about t

    "I wonder why you wanted to meet up with me, Verena, but I can guess," Old Fool welcomed the woman in his own home. She walked slowly as she held on to Zoren’s arm. The prince did not make eye contact with anyone. As soon as Verena was able to sit on a chair, he turned around immediately and left without saying anything. "Looks like the dear Prince hated the idea, huh? He doesn’t seem so interested in it, but at least he would still support you; he even brought you here personally," he said, laughing a bit."Seems like you don’t need me to tell you anything, Old Fool; you already know so much just by looking at us. I bet you memorize every single expression on his face, huh? Can't you guess when he’s going to talk to me again?""So it came to a point where he’s even ignoring you; that is funny. I’ve never thought that our dear prince would have such a personality. He’s sulking right now, but he’s still attentive to your wants and needs; that is amazing."Verena pouted. She doesn’t hav

    Verena held that strand of white hair in her hand and gripped it tightly. She wanted to scream and yell, but she knew that she was going to break any time soon. In the end, she only had the power to whisper. A minute, almost silent one. She held her breath and called for help."Zoren, please help me; I’m scared." All she had to do was wait there and listen for his footsteps. She was not disappointed. As soon as she heard the loud steps approaching, she knew that she could let loose and be at ease. He stormed in, making a huge entrance as he kicked the door in."Verena! What the hell is going on? Why are you up there--Verena?" He was stunned to see her new appearance. Her skin, which was already as pale and white as snow, seemed to be more white because of the red dress that was suddenly on her body. The hair was a big surprise to him as well, but he managed to look past it as soon as he realized that the woman was trembling with her arms wide open. He did not waste a second to go and

    "Ah,Verena, to use such powerful magic comes with a tremendous deal of responsibility. Understanding the delicate balance between power and restraint and becoming an expert in control are the keys. Put all of your efforts into being one with the powers of nature all around you.""But how can I channel these forces without causing unintended consequences or harm?""Nothing will come out of fear but negative results, Verena. You have to remember that before fearing anything, you must first see for yourself. Try first. In the end, even if you fail, at least you know what to do the next time. You at least learned.""When a lot of things can alter because of that simple mistake, it's not so easy anymore, though," she whispered as she brushed her palms on her face. Her hair was tied up in a bun, strategically hiding the white streak that she kept fearing. She pulled up her skirt, which was a bit loose. As she was about to tie the strings, she was surprised to see her fingertips spark a bit.

    "What do you think, Zoren? You are the prince; you are the one to lead the whole pack after me; what do you think they'll do?" The king raised his voice, almost shaking the entire room. Even if Zoren is commanding and bold, he still can't do anything when it comes to his very own father."I mean, I know, you might be feeling troubled that you still haven't found your mate, but why would you announce that it was that witch? Do you know what kind of news that is? It was enough to cause mass hysteria! The whole pack now knows and fears this bond that you say!""Why?" Zoren asked as he crossed his legs. He leaned back and clicked his tongue. "I don't know why we have to worry about what they would think. Don't you want me to find my mate before? It was you who literally organized a whole event just to gather all the women that could possibly be it, but look what happened? I was sent straight to the other world, in front of Verena. If that was not telling enough, I don't know what else you

    Verena ran. She was seeing nothing but green, passing every tree in sight. She did not care even when she was passing by other werewolves who seemed to be confused as to where she was going. She couldn’t really blame them when even she herself didn’t have an idea where she was headed. All she knew was that she needed to run toward that voice. From what she can tell, the sound of the cries was Barbara's, and if she was right, this might be the vision that she had. She was a little surprised to find herself running that fast. Even when she needed to save her PE. grade, she was not able to run like this."Witch!" one kid yelled at her. It was the very first time that someone approached her, so she had to stop. The little boy has a huge long sleeve that looks like it was his father’s. He has brown, curly hair that falls all the way to his shoulders. He is about eight or ten. He did not seem to be bothered by Verena, for he walked closer to her with a pout. "Witch," he repeated."Uh, yes?"

    Zoren felt the world collapsing on him as he ran. He needed to go and stop Verena before she got herself into so much trouble and went inside the prohibited red forest. Ever since he was young, he had already heard tales about how dangerous and unhinged everyone was on that side. They were never able to make peace with the pack that always chose to hide in their messy ways in order to live a little bit better than others. Those werewolves who have no regard for what is right and wrong and would only choose the option that would give them the biggest success ever It was a huge problem for Lucas when they just began their lives in a new world. He had to fight for a chance to keep his followers safe and give them a home. The former leader of the other pack fought in order to get the land where Lucas settled, but failed. In the end, instead of working together, they had bigger problems to deal with. Even with the red forest's abundance in harvest and wild animals, the werewolves from that

    It was the worst when you saw the most important person to you being attacked left and right by werewolves. Verena could clearly see how difficult it was for Zoren to fight alone, but he was doing really well. Aside from a small scratch on his arm that he got after being held by two men while another three launched at him, he was pretty good. But the slightest danger that Verena could see approaching him is making her double-think her whole existence. She wanted to yell something, and that unfortunately starts with a wish, and Zoren would hate her if she used her powers to help.One man had a sword ready, aiming it at Zoren’s head. From her guessing, Verena thinks that it was made of silver, but she has no way to verify it. There was one way, but she doesn’t really want to see Zoren get slashed by it. So she took a deep breath and yelled."Behind you!"A powerful hand pulled her hair, causing the bun to give up. It also forced her to sit on the grass beside Barbara's frail body. But s

    The sun appeared again, shining brightly, proudly showing off the light that gave the dancing flowers in the breeze more life. They swayed and played together with the colorful butterflies that kept swirling around them. The birds chirped as they rested on tree branches. The leaves joining in the fun were beautiful. It was peaceful; it was another good morning."Miss Barbara, do they really have tall houses that reach the sky?" one kid named Justin asked as he pulled on Barbara's skirt a bit. He has a flushed face, and his eyes are glowing, big, and bright while listening to the tales of their teacher about the other realm."They have it," Barbara answered, tapping Justin's head. He turned around to his classmates and gasped with them. "They call them buildings, tall buildings, but most of those buildings are used as a place where they work, not their houses.""Do you think we would be able to see one?" One girl around the age of eight to ten asked Justin. She sighed and looked down.

    "You already used your power too much to alter the world," Zoren whispered as he held onto Verena's wrist tightly. "You can't summon the moon; it might be your last wish.""I'll do it," she responded, not looking into his eyes. "Even if it is, I would still do it.""Verena, do you not care about yourself? We can fight; don't use your powers again!""One bullet directly to my heart and I'll be dead," Verena said coldly. "We are outnumbered; this won't work. We have to change it up a bit.""Dont go."Verena gave Zoren's hand a tight squeeze before making him let go. She walked out with her head held high. She knew that she was nearing the edge, but that did not matter. She wanted to protect Zoren, and she has one last thing to try. Luckily for her, they followed through with their side of the trade, and all the guns were on the floor. Nobody dared to move as she stood there, looking at Leo, waving the book as if he were teasing her to come closer. She hated him with all her heart, but s

    Bulan was in total chaos when Zoren got in. He knew that it was bad when everyone was running out of the compound without even realizing that he was there. Because of the strong earthquake that only happened inside their compound, everyone wanted to leave and save themselves. He rushed to where Verena was. It was easy enough for him to track her since her scent was powerful, especially at that moment. It was too intense, like her aura was engulfing the entire land.His feet led him to the bottom of the tallest building they have, and as he looked up, he felt chills running down his spine. He could clearly see a commotion on top, and the only thing that was clear to him right now was that Verena was fully absorbed by her powers. She was glowing and levitating as her hands were extended, focusing on the two other people there, Mira and Leo.The werewolf prince used his speed to rush up and stop Verena from whatever she was doing. Just by the feeling that he is getting, he is a hundred p

    "Father, don't you see? She is just pretending! She wanted to make you believe that she is someone that you can trust! Don't listen to what she is saying!""Mira, use your brain!" the old man said, while tapping his fingertips on the thick book in front of him. He sat down beside Mira as they were talking. "She gave us the cursed book. We have it; she gave it to us; do you understand that? She is using this book as her bargaining chip, and she only wanted to keep that stupid prince safe. Do you not realize how big of a deal this is?" the man laughed with his whole chest. "I did not think that she would be this weak, though. For a man, she is willing to risk everything, but for one guy, she gave up. How dumb.""It was a dumb decision; you are right," said Mira. "And that is what's making me think that she is only doing this for a different reason. I don't know, maybe this is all part of her plan to lure us into a trap or something!""She was able to go into the book, Mira; do you not u

    Verena's POVI knew exactly what everyone's thoughts were the moment that I walked to the gates of Bulan. When the guards saw me, I could almost hear his brain register who I was. Crazy, it looks like I've become famous within their community since the last time we've all hung out. I am pretty sure that everyone knows who I am; perhaps they know a lot more than I do because I heard my name being said by a bunch of people who were coming out to catch a glimpse of me. There are at least two dozen girls and some guys who were watching, waiting for what I am up to, as some of the guards are still holding the gates closed before they get their leader's final decision. He ran inside, and I assume that he was asking someone higher up in the ranks to give him an order.In my vision earlier, I saw Leo and Mira rushing to us and getting to Zoren. I don't know when that was supposed to happen, but I am sure that I can change it. I was able to change the vision that I had when I dealt with Barbar

    "I couldn't see him anywhere!" Zoren yelled as soon as he got inside the house. He brushed his hair up and stressed that no matter where he went, he would not be able to see Galen anywhere. "I swear, he was never here. If he was here, when I came back, I was sure that he would jump onto me as soon as he saw me. But ever since I came back, I never saw him. Are you sure that he is here?""I am a hundred percent positive," Verena said, wearing her thick, long black coat. "I was just with him while the eclipse showed up. I even accidentally gave him a fright when I connected with him while I was experiencing that surge of energy. I don't know where he went, but because I was not able to control my body earlier, I was not able to see him again." She bit her lower lip. Her palms felt a little hot and sweaty, and she tried to wipe them on her coat, but she knew that they'd still be damp. "I don't know if I was the one who did this to him, but do you think because of what was going on at that

    "Thank goodness, you are finally awake. I was worried that you were too drained because of what happened," Said Zoren as he patted Verena's head. He was holding her hand while the woman looked up at him, slowly blinking as if she couldn't believe her own eyes. She lifted her arm and brushed his hair with his fingertips, making her smile a little."This is the best dream ever," she whispered to herself. "I think I might have used my brain power so much that it granted me this escape," she said. She bit her lower lips and sighed. "Still, I am very grateful.""What are you talking about?" Zoren asked. Based on what he is hearing, it does not seem that Verena was the one who summoned him back, and it does not make any sense to him. Who else would have done that if it was not her? He could literally not think of a single being that would have the ability to do so. "Darling, did you not summon me?"Verena shook her head, her eyes slowly growing big, realizing that this hallucination is not

    Another day of watching the sun come out after witnessing the entire reign of the moon last night was added to Verena's list. At this rate, she won't be surprised if her body begins to cope and she suddenly turns nocturnal. Even though last night all she wanted was to sleep and get at least twelve hours of rest from her loud brain, she couldn't do it. There came a point where she wanted to use her own magic on herself, but she knew that if she started doing that, she wouldn't be able to stop herself when she wanted to escape for a much longer time. Everything that was revealed to her by Galen last night was too much for her to handle, and she won't lie; it caused a lot of doubts and worries in her heart. It was not easy for her to believe that Leo was her father. The thing is, her expectations and her dreams made it a lot more difficult.Because Verena grew up without any knowledge about her family, she was the one who filled her curiosity with her made-up stories, and although she kn

  • Moonlit Pages   Chapter 114: Father

    It's been three days since Verena stayed in a different home that Galen had prepared for her, but she was still unable to do anything. Aside from practicing what Old Fool had taught her before, there was really nothing else. She had made a few wishes here and there just to make sure that she'd be able to at least hinder Leo's movements. But aside from asking for him to stop harming innocent humans, there is nothing that she can do.Galen is not giving her anything. Whenever they meet, he always has so many reasons as to why he can't hang out with her. Even when she moved, he did not go with her. He followed later on and then left again when night came. Since she was back, all she wanted to do was sit and eat a warm meal with Galen to at least help her lessen the sadness and heaviness that she is feeling right now, but she still can't have that. Galen had told her a couple of times already that he had to be out, finding clues and figuring out another way to bring down the hunters. Some
