The next day, Scott's beta set out on a trail around the nearly deserted Blue Moon pack. He trudged through the empty fields and abandoned homes, feeling a heavy weight on his heart.As he walked, he came across one of the elders who had been banished from the pack. The old man was withered and worn, a testament to a life lived in the wild. He had a long beard that reached down to his chest, and his eyes were sharp, missing nothing. Despite his age, he moved with a quickness that belied his years.As he walked along the trail, he suddenly stopped in his tracks as he caught sight of Scott.The elder was there to collect the rest of his belongings, but when the beta saw him, he immediately confined the elder and demanded to know where he had been staying.Despite the elder's initial reluctance to speak, the beta persisted, asking question after question. Finally, he threatened to beat the information out of the elder, and with a trembling voice, the elder revealed that he had joined th
Aria's POVI was really happy with the way things were going for Tristan and I.So many good things had been happening to us lately, and that was making me feel good about life again.Even with the way Tristan was always acting towards me, I just knew that he was also happy with the way things were going.It was already nightfall, but I wasn't feeling like sleeping at all.My mind was so occupied with so many things, I wasn't feeling worried, but at the same time, I just couldn't stop thinking about...everything.Because of how I was feeling, I got out of bed, and I started walking outside.I got out of my room, and I looked down the hallway to see if anybody was around.When I saw that the hallway was empty - everybody was already asleep, I silently walked outside, to feel good.The moment I got outside, the night breeze brushed against my skin, and I closed my eyes and enjoyed the breeze for a minute.It was really refreshing, and I just felt good about it."Oh God..." I muttered to
With Tristan's words ringing in my head, I started acting nice towards them.When they left out house that day, I told Tristan that I wanted us to provide them with food, shelter and everything that they might also need He smiled at me when I said that, and told me that they were going to do just that.I started going to meet them everyday, providing them with food, shelter and clothings.It felt really good to be nice, and even better towards people that weren't always nice to you.In the process of me trying to help them with everything, we became friends and started talking almost every time I went to see them about the most random things ever.Even though I was annoyed with the way they treated me, I still tried to focus the blame on Crystal and Scott.Blaming the bad things the people did to me a decade ago just made it easier for me to help them, because anytime my blood starts boiling with anger, I always blame everything on Scott and Crystal, and I noticed that helped me. On
Aria sat at the kitchen table, staring blankly at the letter in her hand. The news of Scott's childlessness was like a physical blow to her gut and ay the same time a good news. For a moment, she felt a rush of satisfaction knowing that the curse she placed on him ten years ago was working. But just as quickly, that feeling was replaced by guilt and confusion.She had always been one to believe in the power of curses, having grown up in a family that practiced hoodoo. But to actually see the effects of her own spell was unsettling. Aria couldn't help but question if she had gone too far.She read it again, her eyes growing wider with each passing sentence."Childlessness?" she muttered, smiling. "That's heavy. I just can't help but think that my curse is responsible for this." She said to herself again.She I got it but shw thought maybe she should do some more digging before you jump to any conclusions. You know what they say, there's always three sides to every story - his, hers, an
Crystal's POVI was shocked and shaken to my bones to hear that I was infertile.How could that be? I had been thinking that I was fertile, and the problem was with Scott.I started thinking about how it was my fault that we didn't have any children.It didn't make any sense at all, it really didn't.If what I heard about me being infertile was true, then it wouldn't be nice at all, in fact Scott would definitely suffer for it.I decided that the only way that I'd be really sure of that, is if I actually asked the people that knew about things like that - pack doctors.Before actually asking my pack doctor, I decided to ask all the pack doctors from different, powerful packs, because I knew that they were going to give me the accurate answer concerning that.I stormed out of my room, and I called out to my personal maid. I told her to get me the pack doctors from the powerful packs around.I was just interested in getting my answer really fast, before I actually run mad.My mind drift
Crystal's POVGod.My life was really perishing right before my eyes, and the bad part about it all, was that there was nothing I could do about it.The pack was slowly drifting apart, I was barren and unable to have my own child, I was no longer in love with Scott...and, and everything was just so weird around the house.At some point, I thought that I was going to go crazy because of how overwhelmed with emotions I was, but I didn't. Unfortunately.Scott had been acting really wired in the house, and I could tell that it was because he was depressed, so depressed.Well, how could he not be?With the way everything was going in the house, even I was depressed.The blue moon pack, OUR pack, continued perishing because of those filthy couple that claim that they're are not in love with each other - Tristan and Aria.Argh, just saying their names made me so angry.They were the cause of our situation, our current misfortune, and they were happy about it.Yes, they were happy about the f
SCOTT POV"It's your fault we ended up like this, Crystal! Don't you dare put this on me!" I screamed back at her. She always puts our childlessness on me, it's not my fault she's not enough of a woman. I regret the day I ever met her, I swear to the goddess. Suddenly I hear her scream like a primal animal, and before I can even react something hard hits the back of my head. The world shakes beneath me for a second; my vision is blurry and I can feel a warm liquid run down the back of my neck. My feet can't carry me anymore, all of a sudden I feel too heavy for myself. Looking up, I see a heaving, disheveled Crystal be with an animalistic expression on her face. She had hit me with the porcelain bottle decoration in her hand. I went too far this time, I didn't mean to call her a useless hag, it just happened. She just has a way of aggravating me all the goddamn time, reminding me of how we nearly killed Aria and my unborn child. If only I could turn back the hands of time and make my
Crystal's POV Even though we did it last two nights, I still wanted to have sex with Scott, just one last time, because I was slowly thinking about divorce.Yes, divorce!It hadn't been finalized though, bit I was really thinking about it.One night, I met Scott on the bed, and I slowly removed what I was wearing before going to meet him on the bed.When he saw me naked, he turned his face to the other side, thinking that I was just pranking him, because we just had sex some days ago.He knew that I was no longer in love with him, so why would I still want to have sex with him? I was sure that those were his exact thoughts.I climbed the bed, and I started climbing on him, but he stopped me."What are you doing, Crystal? When we had sex that day, we ended up fighting that night," he said, and I started kissing his neck.I was aware of the fact that we loved fighting a lot about so many little things, but that night? I wanted him so much."I want you," I whispered to him, and I could i
