'Cursed wolf.'
Everywhere went deafening silent the moment someone in the crowd had uttered that statement and Tristan had halted on his track.
Tristan clenched his fist with his eyes closed, trying to control the rage he felt.
The people worried as they looked amongst themselves, trying to fish out who had muttered that word to avoid being killed for they knew Tristan wrath and he didn't waste time in getting rid of anyone who dared him.
Cursed from birth, Tristan had to suffer the hereditary curse passed down to him because of the sins of his father.
His father Mateo had killed his cousin brother who was supposed to be the Alpha and took over the Alpha position and in doing so, he angered the moon goddess and so she placed a curse on Mateo and his son who had been born then.
Tristan had to endure the hate of his pack members from a very young age. He didn't know what he did and why they hated him for he caused no harm nor pain to anyone and as he grew up, he began to ask questions and finally he got an answer from his father himself who had told him of the crime he had committed and the curse placed on their family.
The curse as said by the moon goddess 'You have killed your brother who loved and trusted you with all his heart and so you will never find love from anyone.
You will be hated and spoken ill off and no matter what good you do, you will never be appreciated and so shall your son.'
After finding out about the sins of his father, he understood why the people hated him. The people knew of what his father did and because of how powerful his father was, they feared him and obeyed him yet they hated him
. He realised that the curse of the moon goddess was working against him which was why the people didn't like him even when he had not caused any harm to them.
His mother had died after the curse was placed on his father as the moon goddess' way of telling his father that love was far from him and the beginning of his misery.
Tristan craved love and affection but was deprived of that because of the sins of his father and unlike every other child, he didn't grow up having a mother by his side.
His father died and he took over even when the people didn't want him to.
Tristan ran deep into the woods, surprising everyone that he had not turned around to find out who had spoken the word he detest the most and had reminded him of the sins of his father.
Finally coming to an halt, Tristan growled in anger as he sought the moon goddess. "I call for you, hear me!" He cried out.
"I have come to beg for your forgiveness. Forgive my father for his sins, please!" He cried out loud as he looked at the sky.
"I will do anything. Anything to make sure the curse is removed! Please answer me! Please forgive me!" He cried out loud, looking at the sky while waiting for a reply.
The weather changed and the blue sky darkened. Wind blew hard and the trees danced to the direction of the wind. The whistling of the birds filled the forest as they flew around for safety.
"Moon goddess!" He called out again when he didn't get a reply, frustrated and in pain.
"Please hear my plea and answer me! I apologise for my father's sin and so I have come to ask for a way to undo the curse. I will do anything you ask of me!" He pleaded desperately as he waited for her reply.
He was about to lose hope when he heard the voice of the Moon goddess. "I have heard you Tristan, son of Mateo." She spoke.
"You say you will do anything right?" The moon goddess asked.
"Yes! Anything!" He replied almost immediately.
"Okay then. I shall tell you a way to undo the curse. You will go to the human world to find a human girl who will help you break your curse." She tells him.
The skin between Tristan brows creased in confusion as he didn't understand what it was she meant.
"Human world? Human girl?" He questioned rhetorically.
"Yes. You will find a human girl and she will be the one to help you break the curse." She tells him.
He didn't understand how an ordinary human could help break the curse of a moon goddess and it baffled him. How was he to find someone he didn't know and how would he recognize her the moment he sees her, he thought to himself.
"I am confused, Moon goddess." He tells her.
"How can an ordinary human help break my curse and how do I know who she is?" He questioned.
"An ordinary human? She isn't an ordinary human at all but at the same time she is an ordinary human." The moon goddess replied.
"If you do not mind me asking you to elaborate so I can understand." He requested.
"The one who would break your curse is in the human world and she isn't just an ordinary human. You will embark on a journey to the human world where you will find her. Do not worry because I will guide you to the location she is and there you shall meet her but I must warn you to be very careful and watch out for the one. You shall know her for she has glowing eyes." The moon goddess explained.
"A glowing eyes? If you say so, I do have another question to ask the moon goddess." He tells the moon goddess.
"Speak." She permitted him to speak.
"What does this girl you talk of have to do with reversing my curse and how would she do it? If she is an ordinary human as you say, what can she do and also because of your curse, I am unable to be loved by anyone." He tells her.
"Worry not about the curse Tristan. Unlike the others, it would be different but I must tell you do not take it as an easy challenge. There are going to be obstacles in the way and you might meet her and still the curse won't be reversed so easily so brace yourself." The moon goddess warned him.
"When do I embark on this journey moon goddess?" He questioned.
"Tonight. I shall guide you to her location and there your mission begins. Remember to watch out for the one with glowing eyes." She was reminded once again.
Tristan set out to embark on his journey once it was midnight. He called out to the moon goddess while in the middle of the forest to ask for her guidance as she had promised to direct him. "Moon goddess," he called and he got a reply almost immediately. "It's time, Tristan, son of Mateo. Today you shall begin your journey to the human realm to break the curse bestowed upon you because of the sins of your father," the moon goddess said. "You shall walk towards the path your instincts tell you to go and you will know you have arrived at your destination when you see a white light from above. There, the veil between your world and the human world is and you shall have to go through it," She explained to him. "The direction my instincts tell me?" He asked rhetorically. "Does this mean, as long as I walk towards the direction my heart tells me to, I should and should
"Tristan." Tristan need not be told that it was the voice of the moon goddess when he heard his name. He changed position on the bed and was now sitting down hastily. "Moon goddess," he called. He has been wanting to hear from her since he woke up in this place. He had so much to ask as he didn't know why he was in this big room and what to do next. When the moon goddess had told him he'd have to embark on a journey to the human world to find the one who would break his curse, he didn't expect things to turn out this way. The room was luxurious and more different from the room he had back home. Everything about this place was fancy and different. "I know you have a lot of questions to ask and I am here for you to ask them. So go on, ask me," she said. Tristan exhaled deeply. "I know this is the human world but
When Tristan woke up the next day, he already had enough knowledge of Tristan Stone. That night when he fell asleep, he was shown the life of Tristan Stone and the important people in his life so he would be able to live as him till his time was up. "Good morning sir," Arla greeted. "Good morning Arla," Tristan replied, getting off the bed so he could leave the ladies to do their work. He walked into his bathroom to freshen up and by the time he came back out, Arla and Kim were gone. "I said, where is Tristan!" Tristan heard a feminine voice call his name from the living room even though he knew he only heard her because of his super hearing ability. Her voice was loud in his head even though she wasn't closer. He wondered how loud it could be when she came closer. "Tristan!" He heard his name again and her footsteps.
It's been over a week since Tristan arrived at the human world and things have not been as he expected it to be. He didn't expect to find the one who would break his curse easily but adjusting to the lives of the humans has not been the best. Everyday he woke up having it at the back of his mind that he had to go to work and that wasn't the problem but having the handle the company was. The moon goddess had only shown him the life of Tristan Stone but not how to live the life of Tristan Stone. For the first two days, he had difficulty handling the computer and going through the files always at his table every morning. He had to ask the moon goddess for guidance and she had told him she had no idea of how the humans worked. She however told him to watch videos that could help him and in no time he was handling things even though he wasn't fast with it.
Every day Tristan woke up with the hope of finding his mate but it seems fate has other plans for him. No matter how hard he tried and not matter how carefully he looked at every lady who he saw every day, none of them seemed to have glowing eyes. Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months and Adrian wasn't having it. He didn't expect things to be as difficult as they were for him. He was doing fine as Tristan Stone and has now gotten used to being Tristan stone. As much as he loved the way he was treated in the human world and how different it felt compared to his world, he knew he had come here for a mission and time wasn't smiling with him. It felt like a blink of an eye and eight month passed yet Tristan didn't come across any female with the glowing eyes. He thought he might have seen her and not recognized her and so he cried to the moon goddess to come to his aid. "What
After a year in the human world, Tristan did not believe he would finally see the woman with the glowing eyes. He began to look carefully at her from her red hair to her forehead then to her pointed nose, to her high proud cheek bone and then to her lips. The moment his eyes landed on her lips, she parted them and he cursed mentally. He took his eyes off her lips and looked back at her eyes and it glowed again. It was just as the Moon goddess had told him. He would feel an instant connection the moment he saw her. "Excuse you?" The lady voice snapped Tristan out of his thoughts with her calm and soothing tones that sent a jolt of electricity down his spine. "Oh I'm sorry," Tristan said.
"Tonight's was beautiful, thanks to you," Tristan said to Lydia and she smiled at him in return. "You made my night lively and different. I actually came here to ease myself because of the stress I'm currently facing. Meeting you wasn't the plan but I'm glad I did tonight," Lydia said. "I'm honoured. I also cake to relieve myself from stress and overthinking and I'm glad I was able to do that and the credit goes to you Lydia," Tristan tells her. She heaved a deep sigh. "I guess I have to go now," she said getting up from her stool but in the process, she lost her balance but Tristan caught her just before she fell. His hands were firmly on her waist and they sent a jolt of electricity down her spine. Their eyes met and her lips parted slightly. She placed her hands on his shoulder to balance herself and until she was standing properly
Tristan found it hard to sleep as he continuously tossed and turned on the bed with Lydia's face in his head. He felt he was close to achieving his mission and the kiss she placed on his lips just before she entered her room still had an effect on him. While he thought of all the possible ways to keep communicating with her and winning heart, the words of the moon goddess resurfaced in his mind and then it hit him. The moon goddess had told him it won't be easy and then he groaned silently. "Just sleep already Tristan. You don't have to work yourself. Let situations handle themselves okay?" He said to himself and just as he was about to succumb to darkness, he heard voices from downstairs. He looked at the time on his alarm and mentally cursed as he wondered what all the noises were for. He got up from the bed, wore his slippers and walked downstairs to see what was hap
Jade arrived just in time to stop the Queen mother from sacrificing herself for their realm. She was fortunate to come meet the Queen mother while she is preparing for it."Are you sure this would work?" The Queen mother asked Jade."Yes Queen mother. I was able to put the Priestess to sleep just like it happened with the dragon controlled by the demon. If you could help, with your powers, I would be able to reach out to many kinds at the same time and break the side effect," Jade explained."What about Tristan?Was he able to do as he said he could?" The Queen mother asked."Yes," The Moon goddess replied.I can see it from here. Tristan has successfully broken the spell and his pack members are all assembled in one place," The moon goddess said."Luna has also managed to repair the veil but it won't last long. She is currently sleeping now due to using all of her strength," The Moon goddess added."I am very surprised. Not only did you get Lydia to stop but you were able to break the
The moment Simon saw Lydia's face, he panicked.Lydia smiled. "Should I?" She said and Jade stopped her from walking any further."Why were you screaming?" Jade asked Simon who suddenly lost his voice when he saw Lydia.Tristan was surprised to see Lydia beside Jade and she wasn't intending to harm them. Although he could see that, Simon couldn't see that as he ran to hide behind Tristan."She won't hurt you," Jade told him. "So tell me why you were screaming," Jade asked."We want to leave this place," Simon said."Leave here and do what? Create more problems? Do you think you can actually solve the problem at hand?" Jade inquired."I might not be able to solve the problem at hand but being here does nothing to me. We cannot be here and Tristan Stone might be in danger too," Tristan explained. "The whole realm is in chaos and I am sure you know of that. Even if you go there, you will only be affected as every other person has lost their sanity and is blood thirsty and you...'' Jade
The vampire king smirked."Of course I am the only one against this because it it's nonsense like I said," he replied."It's not nonsense. You just constantly prove to me that you are very selfish and that makes you unfit to lead your people. You cannot..." The Vampire king harshly cuts the Moon goddess off."Don't you," he said through gritted teeth."Don't you dare," he said."Enough!" The Queen mother intervened."Since my method isn't wanted by all. Then every one should save their realm all by themselves," The Queen mother said."What are you trying to say?" The Moon goddess asked."I will save my realm and close the veil by sacrificing myself. Since you all cannot do the same for your kind, then i am afraid that there is nothing I can do for any of you," she said."I will be sacrificing myself for my kind too. I am ready," the moon goddess said and the Vampire king laughed out loud."Fine then," he said, making the queen mother and Moon goddess wonder what he meant."You both ca
The four gods also known as the rulers of the four realms all assembled together."I see it has finally happened," the vampire king said."Sadly it has. The vision of the witches priestess did come to pass," the queen mother seconded."How do we seal the veil?" The Vampire king asked. "The humans are dying in the hands of my people and the white light of hope seems to be everywhere. If things continue this way, I am afraid that a lot of humans will die and the werewolves too so we have to hasten up," The vampire king added."When the vision of this coming to pass was said by the witches priestess, I remember saying we needed to act before it happens but nobody listened. I remember saying we needed a way to seal the veil should it happen but nobody listened," the moon goddess said. "It is all my fault and I am ready to take responsibility for it," The queen mother said."You taking responsibility for it won't solve the issues at hand," The vampire kind said."You should have killed h
"So you mean to say that the time you went missing, you weren't really missing but you ran away because you were afraid of being killed?" Jade asked and Lydia nodded her head."I was restless for years. Unable to sleep and so in order to keep them away from me, I made sure to be very useful in the realm and also give pain to people. To be honest, they did not lie about me getting joy from seeing other people in pain. indeed I am the evil one and I proved them right," Lydia said."You not being killed then meant the Queen mother refused you got killed. You didn't hear them speak till the end, did you?" She asked and Lydia shook her head."Exactly. The Queen mother has always treated us as if we are her own kids. I didn't know any of this way happening. I just knew your attitude toward me changed but I thought it was okay. I'm sorry I didn't know what you were going through," Jade apologized."The four
"Will you tell me what happened to you that day? What you heard and when you heard it?" Jade inquired. They were now seated on a log in the forest. Lydia took in a deep breath and exhaled. "It was the day we turned ten. I heard it all when I was told to go ask the priestess for some herbs," Lydia began. ****** "Happy birthday Luna and June," the divine sisters of the witches realm greeted Jade and Lydia respectively. "Thank you so much sisters," Jade and Lydia said respectively. "Today marks your tenth birthday and also a new stage in your respectively life. You will both be given a new power today and we all look forward to it," divine sister Mirabel said and they both smiled at her. "Thank you sister Mirabel," Jade said. "Thank you sister Mirabel," Lydia said. "You are welcome.
Jade was able to follow Lydia thanks to the spell she placed on Lydia while fighting with her."Luna!" Jade called but Lydia wouldn't stop. She tilted her head to see that Jade was hot on her trail and so she kept running."Just stop already Luna!" Jade exclaimed."Why? So that I will get killed? Well I do not intend on living anymore but I will not die until I have completed my mission!" Lydia exclaimed."What mission? Why do you have to do this? There is no gain if you keep up with this? In the end you will lose so what's the essence?" Jade said to Lydia."I do not care, good witch! I will not only destroy the four realms but I will make sure there is no way to restore it back."Just why do you have to do that? What would you gain? You just want to destroy everything and guess what, when you do destroy everything, the vision of you being destructive will co
"Can you hear me Tristan?" Simon asked as he watched Tristan move his body.Tristan groaned. Not only did he feel his head ache but his body too. The little kiss of Jade has helped reduce the pain he felt but then Lydia attacked him again.Compared to before his pain wasn't much. He struggled to get up and Simon helped him.Tristan has not been unconscious all the while Lydia took him with her and the battle between her and Jade commenced.He looked around to see that he was in a completely different place and it made him worry as the skin between his brows creased."Where am I?" He asked frantically while he kept looking around."It's currently a war in the whole place now and this is the safest place right now," Simon replied.Tristan furrowed his eyebrows. He didn't understand what Simon was talking about and what he meant by war.
The spell Jade casted was stopped on an instance. Jade and Lydia turned to look at the person that had interrupted."Queen mother," they both said together and bowed their heads.Queen mother, the queen of all witches and one of the most powerful creatures alive."I see the both of you have decided to create chaos knowing well what could happen and how it would affect the balance of the four realms," she said.The queen mother has been living for the longest time and is said to see the future. She could do and undo things, making her power one of the best."My apologies queen mother but it seems Luna is persistent on dying or rather proving she is stronger than I am," jade answered."What is happening to you Luna and why have you decided to do this? This wasn't how you were supposed to act and you have broken a lot of rules and you will be punished for it," T
