THE DANGER IT'S ALREADY DAWN and we're here at the East gate waiting for our carriage. I told Ayla that I'm still sleepy but Ayla feels the opposite. Did she even sleep? Shortly, Nereza and Clarrise called our names, informing us that the carriage have already arrived. Ayla, Clarrise, and I are inside the carriage while Nereza is seated beside the Scout who will take us to Taewe. "Who's the Scout?" I asked Clarrise. "His name is Jacob. He is the second in command of the Scouts. Nereza said he's good in directions and he's also good at fighting. He will help us reach Taewe," Clarrise answered. "Do you think he won't say a word to the Alpha?" Ayla asked. "I don't think he will tell a soul. Nereza said she had it under control. Let's trust her." Two days. It will take us two days to reach the mountain. I hope that no harm will fall upon us on our way. High Priestess of Preousia, please guide us on our way to Taewe. After my silent prayer, I fell asleep on Ayla's shoulder. I w
RED STRING CHAPTER 26.2
WE MOVED ON with our quest shortly after lunch. Jacob reminds us that we are about to pass an abandoned tribe. We were supposed to choose a different path but Jacob said that crossing the river might not be a good idea right now since it rain hard last night. The unearthly silence of the tribe welcomed us the moment we reached it. The sound of the wheels and the sound the horses made surrounds the place. Jacob mentioned earlier that after the second Blood War, the tribe people who used to live here abandoned this place. They lost many. The tribe people were afraid that another war might happen so they left and seek for another refuge. "What happened?" I asked Jacob because of our unexpected stop. He didn't answer right away so we went out of the carriage to check on him. "Jacob?" "I heard something. Go back inside the carriage, my lady. All of you get inside the carriage!" he told us with urgency. I gasped sharply. He's right. I did hear something. It appears that someone or

TAEWE THE MAN MOCKINGLY laughed at Jacob. "You think I'm afraid of you... werewolf! Tsk. Tsk. I may be a normal being but I'm dangerous too. Men!" he yelled. On cue, men came out from the mist grinning from ear to ear. They're just normal beings but I can see the danger in their eyes. Who are these men? Are they rebels? "Let. Them. Go. Or I will rip you in half... human," Jacob said with a threat. The man, once again, laughs at us, including his comrades. "As I said, I am not afraid of you," he mocked, "And look!" he exclaimed as he points at something behind us. Worried flooded us when we realized that Nereza and Ayla are now both unconscious. "This woman is not affected with powdered wolfsbane. We gave her a sleeping powder instead," a man said while pointing his finger at Ayla. Ayla is a normal being that's why she isn't affected by wolfsbane. "What do you want from us?! If you want gold coins and jewelry, we don't have them!" I told them half-yelling. "Hmmm, we actua

ATTICUS IS A vampire but the color of his eyes tells that he's not a pure-blooded one. Only the pure ones bear red eyes while the ones with golden yellow, like Atticus, are turned vampires. "BELLA?! It's Jacob! Help him!" Clarrise shrieked. I was pulled from my trance when I heard Clarrise. I quickly took the bow and arrow to shoot the men who tried to hurt Jacob. I shoot the other man in his hand and the other man on his shoulder. I shot them again and this time I shoot their legs. As they both fell to the ground Atticus came running to Jacob and helped him. "What happened to him? I thought the fluid was supposed to heal him?!" I asked. "It should... but I didn't know he was pierced with a silver arrow. His wound will heal longer but don't worry, he's going to be okay. He just needs time," Atticus told me reassuringly. I roamed around my eyes to my surrounding and relief came upon me when I saw that the men who tried to hurt us were no longer capable to cause harm. "What s

SOTÌRAS TREE TAEWE IS A small village with paths made of pebbles. The place looks serene but the various plants make the surroundings lively. The people live in small houses made of logs. Tall trees also surround the area and I even saw a pond with a sculpture of a woman in the middle, wearing a chiton dress. Who is she? We keep on walking around the village, searching for Elphina. As we wander around, we noticed the puzzled looked of the people while some are giving Atticus and Draven sharp eyes. We asked questions to the people about Elphina's whereabouts but we didn't get any luck. It looks like they're protecting her. They must have thought we were here to cause a disturbance. Then suddenly a girl about ten years old came running to us. She handed me a single piece of paper with words written on it. -The wooden house near the cliff. After reading it we didn't waste any seconds. We reached the cliff and found the said house. Nereza was about to knock but the door suddenly o

OUR BROWS CREASED with perplexity. She breathes and continues to speak. "The Sotìras tree is not just an ordinary willow tree. It has a life, a soul. It can sense your desire to see it. And when the tree feels your need for help it will let you find it. The tree took your memories, Ysobella and only the tree can give them back." "But how can we find the tree if we don't know where to search for it?" I asked, confused. She let out an assuring smile to me. "You saw the tree, Ysobella, it means you already have a connection with it. Use your connection and follow your heart, the tree will sense you." Ayla tapped my shoulder, telling me that I can do it. The rest of the group also showed their support. After a while, Atticus and Draven came back. Atticus' expression is now calm but I can still see a faint pain in his eyes. I wanted to speak to him but I figured he needs time to be alone. "You helped them. Can you help me now?" Draven asked. The enchantress nodded and signaled hi

MADLUCIEN... HE'S HERE. I thought I won't be seeing him until later. I was about to open my mouth to greet him but I halted when I realized how dark and cold his expression is.Have I done something wrong?"Logan, I want you and your brothers in the Eastern borders. You go with the Scouts," he ordered coldly.After Lucien said those he took his leave without even looking at me. I felt a sudden pain in my chest because of his sudden indifference."Bambina, are you okay?" Landon asked with concern.I felt something on my lump and I was afraid my voice might falter if I speak. I faced Logan and answered him with a small smile instead.Shortly after calming, I excused myself.I went straight to the quarters to have an early break. What happened a while ago somehow made me feel weak. Upon entering our house, I caught Ayla doing s

DOC LINUS WAS also alarmed after hearing about our problem. "So... this man. He knows you but you don't know him?" Doc Linus asked. "Yes," Ayla answered with a nod. "Did you see his face?" he asked. "No. No matter how I tried, I couldn't clearly see his face." Ayla's brows furrowed. "Why is this happening to Ayla, Doc Linus," I asked. "Normally, things like this happen when a person wants to be with you. And this man in her dreams wants to be with her so he was reaching out for her through her dreams," he explains. Ayla's face turned pale. "Isn't this risky? What if the next time I fall asleep, I will never wake up?" "That might happen but in your case, Bella mentioned that you can actually control your dream. So I think whoever this person is, he is weak because he can't fully have his control over your dream." "Is there a way to stop this?" Ayla asked with hope. Both of us sighed in relief when Doc Linus nods his head. "It's not my expertise but I think I can help y
