Logan’s pov
When I got home my father immediately came to my side worried.
“What happened? Where is Charlotte? Why did you bring her with you?” he asked me.
“Father I think there is a few things you need to know,” I said.
We went to his office, and I told him everything, I told him everything I remembered.
“What? So back then you did that?” he asked me, and I nodded.
“Then why didn’t you stay with her? Why not stay and try to fix your mistakes?” he asked me.
“Because she didn’t want to, she wanted me to come back home.
We are in this situation because I didn’t respect her decisions back then,
I marked her forcefully,” I said and paused.
I feel like I am going to cry, so I took a deep breath and looked at my father.
“And now you wanted to respect her decision, I understand that” he said and patted my shoulder.
I looked around and remembered something, would he believe me if I told him the truth?
“I think you should make Elena the future Alpha Queen,” I said, and he looked at me.
“Elena is a good option; she is strong and intelligent. But son only you would make a great Alpha King,” he said, and I shook my head.
“No, I won’t father, I don’t want to, and I don’t deserve that,” I said to him.
While on the way I kept thinking about what I did back then.
Why did I do that?
I realized that I was a lot like how Justice is now.
My brother ha been doing all of this so he could be the Alpha King.
He has done bad things just so he could get what he wanted.
Which is what I did back then.
So, if Justice doesn’t deserve to be Alpha King then why would I?
I don’t even want to be Alpha King;
I never did but she does.
“Elena has always loved the title, she used to call herself Alpha Queen,” I said, and father chuckled. “
We had to call her that for months,” he said, and I nodded.
“But she then grew up and decided she wanted nothing to do with it,” father added.
“But it was for our sake, she saw Justice and me always fighting and didn’t want to be a part of it,” I said, and father nodded.
“But then what is your solution? Do you think your brother will let her be?” father asked me, and I shook my head.
“I know he won’t, and even as much as it kills me I think it’s time I out an end to my older brother,” I said, and father looked at me confused.
“You will kill your older brother; I won’t let him happen. At the end of the day, he is still my son,” Father said, and I nodded.
“I am aware, but I will not kill him. He is still my brother as well, but he will be punished and locked away for what he did,” I said, and he frowned.
“What did he do?” Father asked me.
“Charlotte believes that he killed mother, I don’t know why she thinks so, but she told me that herself,” I explained to him.
“But why? Why would she think that?” father asked.
“Think about it, he was there when mom died. And he said the Vampire King killed her,” I said, and father nodded.
“The man we met wouldn’t have a reason to kill your mother. But why would your brother?” father asked me.
The truth is I wish I had the answer to his question.
I wish I knew why our mother had to die but I have an idea.
But I will find out the truth, “let’s test out if it’s true,” I said and left his office.
I found Sasha sitting alone In the library.
Her eyes landed on me, and she smirked.
“did she reject you? Of course, she is the type to go from one powerful man after another,” she said.
I sat down next to her, I looked at her which seemed to shock her for a second.
“Now tell me the truth, did you help Justice to kill my mother?” I asked her.
Her eyes went wide telling me that she knows what I am talking about.
“I don’t know what you are talking about,” she said, and I scoffed.
“Fine I will take that as a yes, we have evidence about my brother. You do know that helping kill the Queen Luna is punishable by death?” I asked her.
She got up fuming, “what are you talking about? I didn’t help him do anything, he killed his mother all on his own.
She found out that he had rejected Clara and wanted to take away his title.
I had nothing to do with it, I only found out a few weeks ago. I did nothing wrong,” Sasha said.
“Well then, I want you to repeat those words in front of the elders,” my father said coming in.
Sasha’s eyes went wide when she realized that I tricked her into ruining her partner.
A few days passed and Justice punished for killing our mother and Elena finally got the title.
“Brother do you have to leave? Don’t you want to stay for some time and hear if they will be able to break the curse?” Elena asked me.
“I am sure they will break the curse, just call me, and let me know. I need to reflect on a few things, don’t worry about me,” I said.
I got to my car and drove off; I want to find myself.
I want to find out what it is that I truly want.
The world is huge, there is something out there for me right?
Charlotte’s pov“Are you okay?” Sebastian asked me.“Yes I am okay,” I said and he shook his head as he held my hand.“I know you had feelings for Logan, it’s okay to be sad that he is gone,” he said and I looked at him.“I am, he made me dream of growing old in a house with a white picket fence,” I said with a smile.“I think I love him,” I said to him.I looked at him, he smiled as he if already knew the truth.“I know, and now you remember all your past lives. The lives where you were tied to him,” he said.I nodded, “we were never happy in those lives,” I said with a frown.“In all those lives he was a really good person. He made one mistake, I know it doomed us all,” I said.“And I know that it’s not the only thing on your mind,” he added and I nodded.“It’s not, I think I have a solution to the blood mark curse,” I said and he looked at me.“Okay, what is the solution?” he asked me and I held both his hands.“Please keep an open mind,” I said and he nodded.“I will go and see my
Charlotte’s povI sat at the rock and watched as the sun was setting.My mother came and sat next to me, “you hated sunsets,” she said, and I looked at her.“You loved me,” I replied, and she scoffed. “Kill me,” I said after some time, and she looked at me confused.“You can even perform a spell that locks my soul to this body.That way I will never be reincarnated,” I said, and she frowned.“Why?” she asked me, and I just shrugged.“Because I promised you a long time ago. Remember? I broke my promise then, let me make it up to you now,” I said.“What is this? What trick is this Scarlet?” she asked, and I shook my head.“It’s not a trick mother,” I said and then held her hand.I kissed the back of the hand and then looked at her with a smile.“No more tricks, no more broken promises mother,” I said, and she didn’t say anything.We stayed like that for some time before she got up and then looked at me.“Fine, I will kill you,” she said, and I nodded as I got up.“You abandoned me all
Sebastian’s povWe found her unconscious near her mother’s tombstone, and she was breathing just fine.I let her rest and she woke up 3 days later.“What happened?” she asked the moment she opened your eyes.“The blood mark curse, it’s gone,” Mary said, and Charlotte looked at me.“Is it really gone?” she asked, and we all nodded.“You are free now sister,” Alexa said, everyone was worried that she hadn’t woken up yet.But also, somewhat relieved that the blood mark was completely gone.Mary and David tested her blood and mine more times than I can count.I was also a part of the curse even though I didn’t know about it.I wonder what it is that she spoke with her mother about that made her change her mind.Anger can make people do the scariest things.Maybe her mother’s anger finally subsided, and they could talk things through.“What happened? How did this happen?” I asked her and she smiled.“Forgiveness, we forgave each other,” she simply answered which was all I need.“Now what?”
Charlotte’s pov “I can’t believe I will be an official member of our coven, I heard that once you are a part of a coven you get access to all the magic In the world” I said to my father who smiled. “hey, calm down kiddo, and not just all the magic in the world, but also in the afterlife. You will be able to get access to all the magic of the million dead witches in the world, from the witches of Salem and those before them” he explained making me even more excited. We were coming from our vacation trip; we take those every year and we had to come back early for this one because I am going to join the coven. When you turn sixteen covens throw a ritual where you officially join the coven and become one with everyone. This is to help witches and to make sure that we all have access to magic, and we use it responsibly, it means I will be officially an adult. We stopped by a restaurant to have dinner because it was getting late, and mom didn’t want to get home and cook so late. “Wow
Charlotte’s pov “come on open up already” May said knocking on my door like a maniac. May is my best friend and cousin, we are both 16 years which means that she will also be joining the coven alongside me and other 16 year olds. I looked outside and realised that the sun is already out, I couldn’t sleep all night, so I decided that I finish up my painting of the mysterious stranger I saw last night. I opened the door and May engulfed me in a hug, “I missed you so much, there is so much I want to tell you about the things Jake did when you were away” she said pulling away. She then sat on my bed and was about to say something when her eyes landed on the painting, “OMG who is that? why is he so handsome?” she asked practically drooling at the sight. If she is drooling at my badly drawn painting then I don’t know what she would do if she was the one who met him. I locked my bedroom door and started telling her about him, I told her every single detail and by the time I was done h
Sebastian’s pov I watched from the private room at the girl that resembled Scarlet, she looked so much like the younger version of Scarlet that the moment I saw her I let myself hope that it could be her. I watched as she was talking and having fun with her family, maybe it’s a good thing that she isn’t Scarlet because fate never really favoured her ever. I know she isn’t Scarlet; I checked her neck and its clear that she doesn’t have the blood mark curse, so she can’t Scarlet. Scarlet is my first and last love, she was a witch when we first met which was about a millennia ago, that’s right, I have been around for almost a millennia waiting for one woman. Every century she gets reincarnated, but she never really lives that long because they kill her, the moment those witches see her blood mark curse they kill her. Maybe they have already killed her even in this century, I looked at bracelet the girl gave me, and I felt my cold heart warm up. “My King, your car is ready” said one
Logan’s pov“what?” my brother Justice said after hearing what my father had to say to all of us. “you heard me son, I will crown both you and your brother as Alpha Prince so that anyone of you can become King in the near future” he repeated himself as a curtesy. “what? I am the oldest father, everyone knows that the oldest son gets the crown. You cant expect me to fight for my crown especially with him” he said pointing at me with a frown. Honestly I don’t care about being an Alpha King, I just want to live a quiet and normal life which isn’t an option when you are a royal werewolf. “Justice spade you will respect your father and his choice. He took a very informed decision and just because you were born first it doesn’t mean you are entitled to the throne” my mother said to Justice who just frowned. “but mother its mine, everyone knows that its mine. I am going to be the Alpha King” he said even beating his own chest like Godzilla. “not with that attitude you wont, I will remind you
Charlotte’s pov I looked at the city, I love big cities, but I also miss the small town I grew up in. they were a loving community and of course the air was much purer compared to the air in the city. My coven, ohhh they aren’t my coven anymore, now I am a rouge witch without a coven or parents. Its been 8 years since we ran away from that place, my dad died 2 years ago and ever since then I have been alone on the run. It gets kind of lonely, but I promised my father that I would do my best to survive and that is what I am doing now. For years my dad and I did a lot of research on the blood mark curse, I tried to find as much as I can about this witch they say possessed me. with dad gone I am left to do research on my own, I am also left to survive and fight this entire world all by myself. But I have grown quite a lot in the past 8 years, although I don’t know what the future holds for me or how I plan on getting my life back I know that something good has to come out of this.
