“Hello, my child.” The woman said in a sweet calm voice.“Umm hello, I’m sorry do I know you? How did we get here?” I replied, trying to sound as polite as possible.“You have been told wild stories about me but we’ve yet to meet in person, I thought this would be a better setting to tell you everything Aurora, so I brought you here.” She responded, still not telling me her name, and yet I have this feeling like I’m missing something.“Thank you, this is my favourite place and much better than that stupid castle…wait did I die? What happened to Sapphire? I failed her so much having such a short life with me.” I cried as I sat on the floor hugging my knees, I didn’t want to die but if it’s as beautiful as it is now then I’m happy to come to terms with it.“Sapphire is fine, here she comes now. We don’t have much time, so we need to make this quick!” The woman walked towards me closely followed by a large golden wolf, it was her and she was magnificent in her true form and size. She bou
“What happened to my mother in the end after you had taken all of her powers away?” I asked, trying to form a sentence in between the tears and the sheer anger that I felt against that woman who caused all of this just from what….jealousy.“She did break down and cried holding my lifeless body, I’m not sure if it was due to actual sadness that her best friend died or the fact that I was now the one thing she wanted more than anything.” Selene replied, just as curious as me about the sudden change of heart.“I’m going to say that it was due to the fact she had lost, I’m sorry you had to end your own life to protect the world from her.” I said, more tears had started flowing now.“My dear, please don’t cry as this was something that was going to happen eventually, I did this to protect and to be able to create more life along the way. This has given me such wonderful purpose and I was able to meet my true mate as well….the tales of our love are very real. I’m sorry that your mother has
We had started to circle around the room as the constant rows of onlookers just stood there frozen and unable to move, waiting for this battle to see who’ll come out on top and some would be wondering what would happen to them if Delphine was to lose.“I’m glad you didn’t die back then, and I can complete the ritual as I believe we got interrupted.” Delphine said, smiling away at me.“I don’t think so, I’ve come to finally end this once and for all! My power and my life are my own to use not be your fucking vessel.” I replied, I didn’t shout or scream I remained as calm as I could compose. She’ll never get my power or try to harm me ever again; she is no mother to me only my enemy as she killed my only family for some shitty reason, she built up in her own damn head that would never come to pass.‘Focus Aurora, remember you’re a badass and she won’t ever mess with you again after tonight!’ Saph said, snapping me out of my thought path to focus back to the battle that is going to start
This was the weirdest situation that I’ve ever been in right now, as it wasn’t my mother who was laughing as she was currently mute in the chair looking really badly burnt and just about alive to a point, nope the evil laugh had come from Jade who was now standing in the room followed by a gloating Darius who had the look he had just won the lottery as he stared at me.“So, the weak little wolf has finally got some balls! Your still as weak as ever compared to me and won’t win him back if that’s what you’re trying to achieve.” She said, through gritted teeth as this was still clearly bothering her that he was always going to be my mate.“Why would I want your sloppy seconds from you when I’ve got someone much better in mind that I want to be with, and you can keep your once king that never will be.” I snorted back at her; I was honest to the point I don’t ever want Darius back as I had Ryder who is a million times better.“You bitch, the mate bond is still there, and you want him, I c
Sapphire POVI managed to just about dodge Rose as she came flying towards me, I think the very tip of her claw grazed my shoulder, this was nothing that I couldn’t heal. She seemed a lot faster than when she was at the castle training with the other warriors and classmates, maybe she was able to gather some of the new power that Jade seemed to have at this point.‘Saph, where did they get this power from? How did they get the power as neither of them are magical in any way?’ Aurora muttered in my head, she was right how did a Lycan who has no previous power or any way of getting it suddenly become faster and harder to beat.‘I’m not completely sure on that point I must admit, this seems very much a dark power she has been able to practice in secret or obtain from someone else.’ I replied, jumping to the side away from another frenzied attack from Rose. I went to take her off her feet by whipping my tail in her direction as I span around in a circle to avoid another attack, this only
Aurora POVI was just stunned into silence after Sapphire ripped Jade’s head off as soon as she was close enough for Saph to leap up off the ground, our plan had worked and now I was at a loss of what to do after all these years of being bullied by her I was happy that she was dead, but was I happy that it was at my hands that bit I wasn’t sure about.‘Are you ok?’ Sapphire said, she could clearly tell that something was on my mind.‘Yeah, I’m just a bit shocked at how I feel right now with Jade and Darius both being dead.’ I replied, there is no hiding anything from her.‘I understand, it’s all over now and you don’t have to worry about them ever again.’ Saph said reassuring me that I’m never going to be bullied again. It was only then that I started to hear some strong wheezing coming from the extremely weak burnt body, she was trying to stand up or at least get our attention to go over to her by waving her hand towards us.‘Do you want to go over and speak to her? Are you ready to
A loud scream filled the room followed by someone shouting at me to run, my ears still ringing I picked up Ryder, bolting out of the ruins using my wolf speed I headed towards the spot where Kitana and Flora had been waiting for us all.“Oh my god, what happened? Will he be, ok? How are you doing my dear.” Kitana rushed out, checking out the wound on Ryder’s side that was partly healed but had some dark veins appearing all around it like they had started to spread.“I got stabbed with a silver blade trying to protect me, I need to get him to the hospital back home. Can you mind link them to say we’re coming and let them know Ryder is hurt?” I replied with more tears running down my face, I never wanted him to get hurt or now he might even die.“Go go I’ll make sure I’ll let the doctor know you are on the way; I’ll make sure they’re ready” Kitana shouted as I bolted off again. I must make it to the hospital quickly, but I had a feeling that this run will cost me either a lot of energy
“I understand, it seems somethings you can’t control, like her killing you before I reached eighteen didn’t really help. I just wish that Julius would have said something when her name came to light after I had a vision, but he just looked as shocked and kept quiet.” I said, thinking it about it now maybe that was a sign he knew more than he was letting on, he might not have been able to speak about it.“Julius didn’t know the full extent of your connection with Delphine, only that she was a powerful witch who might come after you and not that she was your mother. In the end, we had all be tricked by her including me thinking that she could have been my mate.” He replied, he looked like he was on the brink of tears at the thought he never did have a true mate or had the chance to find one.“I think she may have loved you in her own weird way, anyway, moving on from this sad topic as I don’t think I can cry anymore.” I chuckled, trying to change the subject. I decided to sit back down
