The moon shines upon us, it’s like a silver boat dangling into the midst of darkness, surrounded by twinkling stones that don’t even outshine it.
Tilting my head, I tried to reach for it. I tried to hold it in the palm of my hands but I just can’t. Not when I know that it was bleeding, that even when it’s shining, it’s exploiting the darkness of love.
“ You’re just wasting your time,” I heard a voice say behind me. He was stoic in expression and I doubt if I’ll ever feel his warmth again.
It was like the past events. We are again, in the middle of nowhere and he’s beside me, guarding me. The only difference was that before, he was protecting me but right now, he’s going to kill me if I didn’t do what Selene did.
Selene wanted me to kill Alpha Gerri. He wanted me to use my power to kill her lover. The power that I didn’t even know that I had.
“ What will she do
Beta Xander plucked the sword out of my hands and throw it into the ground. I was weaponless and he was in rage, aiming his swords in my direction. Without hesitation, he plunged it towards my direction and the only option that I was left was to run.I run for my life when I shouldn’t be. Time stopped for me when the sharp edge of the sword tear the sides of my shirt. It almost makes me crumble into the ground because of fear.He was just looking at me, losing all of the colors in my face while gaping at what he did. “ Y-You’re really going to kill me?” I asked. My voice is nothing but pained.Beta Xander ignored my words and stopped over at the log at the sides. He was whirling his swords expertly like he was really determined to kill me.The wintery sun rose against the shadows of the leaves, it appeared to be brighter or was it because I’ve been seeing nothing but darkness that I wasn’t even used to lig
This is the day.The musky shadows of the roads and patterns of the houses unveil in front of my eyes. Whispers of the strangers and the shuffling of footsteps can be heard across the street. It was the images of wolf laughing and enjoying every bit of life while I was here, preparing myself for this very day.Beta Xander wasn’t kidding when he told me that we are ought to invade the pack of Alpha Gerri and kill him at his own home. He arranged everything and we are successfully inside. The pack was the same, the hometown is still full of love for it was created for that very matter. It was supposed to cater the lone wolf and gave them a home to shelter.That’s why they are faithful to their Alpha. To their Alpha Gerri. They are faithful for he gave them hope and gave them a home.Alpha Gerri. I don’t know what I will feel about this. Killing him was the plan and I’ve realized that maybe, he just fell inlove with Letti and unintent
It was the warmest embrace. The bravest and foolish embrace that I’ve experienced in my life. His cold hands touched my face, gently tracing and staring to me. His deep set of eyes and peaceful face reminds me how he stand for me. How he helped me during the time of suffering. He was always there and I am blind for not seeing him. He wipes the tears that is cascading out of my eyes and slightly chuckles.A sound of peace and joy can be traced down at his tone but I refused to hear it. Not when my hands are trembling as I lay him into the cold floor and made him lean his head into my lap. Drops of blood is spurting out of his mouth and I am beyond grieving.How devastating to be a goddess and not be able to protect him? He shield the wrath for me using his own life without thinking. And the guilt inside of me was blooming with regret. Blooming with mourning feeling of this event.The sword was meant to kill a wolf. It was meant to kill Alpha Gerri but it wa
Stories circulates in the vast of the world. Like a bird that mingles at every spot of the trees and chirped in a tone that will then echoes along the vicinity.Apollo is my father and Selene is his father. They are both entangled with the divinity of the world and both are ready to kill each other.Selene glances at the dead body of her lover. Alpha Gerri who betrayed her and scarred her. It was her command to kill him but somehow there is a reflection of sadness at his eyes at it stares at the lifeless body of her past lover.Her eyes then landed at the other body, lifeless and cold at the floor. It was her apprentice, the young lone wolf that she used for this very day. I was angry. Beyond angry for in my mind, it was her fault that Beta Xander was killed.However, as elegant as she is, she lost her class and whimpered at the lying body of Beta Xander. Her sobs and groans of mourning fills the every gap of this cabin. I remain standing for I cannot und
Mom once said that life is a chain of survival. That one way or another we will be at the position where the only option that we had is to walk away and chose another path to survive. That werewolves doesn’t have any difference with the normal animals that is lurking at the cold ground of the mountains. That we are also, in the search of our life, of what we needed to do and continues on chasing uncertain things that this life has to offer. She loves to tell me stories and I love the lessons that is between each of his characterization. And especially, I love how she defines love. That love is like an air, you can feel it and you know that it exist but you don’t see it with your naked eyes. Once it touches your skin, it will create an electrifying feeling that will either make you squeal of make you gulp for the intensity is too strong. It will make itself known at the right timing. According to her, love is like the air that will manifests in our life as long as we needed i
It was the chill of the air, the darkness of the clouds and the crispness of this place that made me want to revisit my decision.The last memories that lingers into the back of my mind is the warm night that we’ve just shared. A night where I let myself be whole for them only to be shattered at dawn. At dawn where I chose to leave without telling my goodbye. To leave so that I can harness my skills and be strong enough to protect us from the moon goddess.Be strong enough to fight our happiness.“ So, that was it for today?” I asked Thorne and landed at the ground, picking the sword and swishing it into the air.His laughter echoes into the place, shaking his head as if what I just said amuse him. We’ve been training for hours every day. He made sure that I will be strong physically, mentally and on using my power.Thorne landed beside me and gripped the sharp sword before tugging my clothes and pulling me int
“ Ah! What the hell are you trying to do?!”I squealed at Thorne before grabbing my sword and swishing it into the air, defending myself at his numerous attacks. The golden yellow shade of the sun as it passes through the every vein branch of the trees around us blinded me from his attacks. It’s still a morning and Thorne woke me up so that he can use his sword and tear my clothes apart.“ This all what you can do? After all of our practices?” he said, mocking me with his words. It wasn’t known to him that I’ve been waiting for this day to come because I will going to prove that I am not like the moon goddess. I am not like Selene who they says I resembles.The swords was shining and reflecting the rays of the sun and I’ve take that as an advantage to blind him. He steps backward and shouted because his eyes was hurt and during that time, I used all of my strength and disarm him, letting his sword to
The golden rays of the wakes me up from a deep slumber. After what happened, Thorne and I decided that it’s still not the time to face the moon goddess. That even after being able to relinquishing my power, I still cannot control it for my own good and thus, we are still going to progress into our training session and this time, we will concentrate about using our power and accepting our divinity.Thorne told me that at first, I might feel overwhelmed at everything. He told me that I will feel like all pieces of my soul will be shattered before I am being one to the nature once I accepted what truly I am. That it will take all of my own for the power to fully manifest in my life.A deep voice disrupts my thoughts and I was quick to cover myself with the blanket as soon as I saw Thorne leaning into the corner of my room and staring at me. Even if we’re brothers, and even if he’s helping me with everything, I still cannot see myself being comfortable wi
