Theta, Elderlake…“Declan?”“Declan?”I heard it again, that soft voice that almost makes me a mad man for missing her. I couldn’t see anything or reach it. But I knew for sure that she was talking to me. I wanted to call her, but the words got stuck in my throat. I couldn’t even open my mouth.“Declan, where are you?” She whispered right to my ears. I turned my head and it’s still dark, I felt like my body’s floating in the air, adrift in the waves of emptiness.And I’m pretty sure it was a dream.“Baby? Where are you?” I finally able to speak but my voice came out so weak that it sounded like a whisper.“I am here, Declan… I miss you...”I felt a pang in my chest. How I wanted to pull her in my arms. It’s been so long that it hurt me every second that pass.“Baby, I miss you too. Please, tell me where are you…” I was so desperate in this moment. I barely could hear her, don’t even think about touching her, kiss her…The I light came from behind my back. It sudden brigthness almost
“How’s Jamie?” I asked Cylas who guide us the way to meet their witch. We were walking far enough from Cylas house, on a small path way to the forest, until we walked passed the bamboo forest, the wind blow through make it whistle beautiful notes to our ears.“He’s fine, I visited him this morning before our breakfast and he asked me to accompany you to her place. I think it was that time again when he mourn for his wife.”I nodded. Well, I thought Jamie was dead before we arrived at this remote pack. But we never know that he actually live and well in this place. He even had a wife here, and had this agreement with Myrna.Just how many things we didn’t know about Myrna and her secrets…“Is she usualy kept her distance with people?” I heard Finn asked him.“No, Alpha. She often visits us in the pack house but she chose to built her home a little far near the borderline so she could mediate and watch if any inturderr trying to enter the pack.”From what he explained, this witch had Myr
Finn’s POVWe sat on the dining table outdoors, in the backyard of the cottage. This place really reminded me of Myrna’s peaceful backyard and Jamie’s outdoor dining area in his pack house. If I was not mistaken, Cylas too had this in his backyard.Did they get the inspiration from Myrna? Or did she tell them to have one in their houses like this?I am not against this, I rather find this outdoor dining table is…. like I said, peaceful…Now, it wasn’t that bad sitting here enjoying a cup of coffee with Lilly wrapped in my arms, even though this pack is already odd and the air is thick with spell aura.Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.We were here with cups of tea, not coffee, and Lilly wasn’t here.But this girl instead. The witch we've been looking for this whole time.I looked down and sighed, then looked around to avoid this awkward situation but hell, how fail I was. I just couldn’t take my eyes out of her face.The woman’s version of our Dad.Declan was sitting next to me, mea
Molie smiled when I mentioned that. She looked down and her shoulders trembled. I thought she was going to cry but then I heard her giggle.So, this witch could actually laugh that freely? So much like her mother I supposed.“Sorry,” She looked up and wiped her tears as the smile was still on her face.“I really wanted to say those words but never had the guts to. I was too much of a coward even to say those words here…” Her sudden blank gaze told me that she might have some particular memories playing in her mind.“You are afraid of him?” Declan asked her and she nodded instantly.“Sadly yes. I was aware that he had my mother wrapped around his fingers. If I do anything reckless it might end with Mom losing her life. I didn’t have enough power as I’m a hybrid myself, but I wanted to help her.” She paused and smiled in agony, “In the end, I never help her at all, I’m just her weakness that she needed to hide.”Finally, it’s my time to sigh. This is more complicated than I thought. But
Cylas looked at us with wide eyes when he heard Molie.“G-going to Blue Moon? Are you sure it’s safe?”Me and Declan were still sitting at the dining table in Molie’s backyard. Cylas seemed to help her harvest the veggies they needed, but we were sure that it was only Molie’s way of telling him that she would depart for a while from Elderlake.“It is, Cylas don’t worry. I wanted to see where my Mom’s buried anyway.” We could hear here in this distance.“Are you worried about them?” We heard her again, “They won’t hurt me, I know that…”“But, Molie, Myrna said that…”“Mom sent them here before her death, Cylas. She made them come here to seek my help. Mom will never do anything to hurt me in any way…”We heard them. I was grateful somehow that it was really me and Declan that came in here. What if someone else pretends to be us? From this matter, I could tell that Molie must be at least years way younger than us, it is normal for Cylas to worry about her sudden decision.“I’m sorry for
Declan’s POVOn day three in Elderlake, early this morning, we prepared ourselves for the journey back to Blue Moon pack. Jamie prepared the horses, Cylas prepared the food, and Diane prepared everything we needed on the road.Well, for me and Finn, in our Lycan form, we could move faster than the horses, moreover, we knew the forest better than these mere horses. But Molie won’t have the same speed and stamina like us. We’ll need to hurry and can’t let any second slip through. We must open the portal right to Elden Wood in Myth Heaven Realm.The dream me and Finn having must be a message or some clue of something happening. I really hope it’s not a bad thing, but rather a good thing. I didn’t feel anything bad happened to them tho, it made me a little at peace.But, still. We need to get them back as soon as possible.I was brushing my horse, getting to know her in this quick acquaintanceship, when I saw Jamie walk approach Finn not too far from me, sitting on the garden bench.“Err…
Declan’s POVI slowed down my horse as I saw the tip of a cave from behind the trees. I think I’m familiar with it.“Finn, do you see that?” I pointed the cave to him, and he grinned and nodded.“Woah, here we are. I thought it would take months for us to get here, " he said excitedly when he saw the cave.We were on the journey back to Blue Moon, and this was the fifteenth day. We were almost there.“Is that Blue Moon?” Molie asked. Not only by the way she sounded, but also by the look she is exhausted.“Three days from here,” I answered her. Her eyes widened but then her shoulders dropped.“Ugh, now I wish I cast the spell Mom always did when she visited me.“Now, you are talking about that…” Finn frowned looking at her, the same way as I did.“What? You can do it? You say you can’t!” Finn grunted and cursed lowly as he began to reach his limit with her.Well, traveling with this young witch is not an easy task. Even though she looked like our father and sometimes acted gracefully l
“Please… Please…”Her quiver voice came out like a whisper. It looked like it hurt for her to breathe or speak. Everything that we saw on her made us frown. The last time we remembered her, she was…. not like this.“What the hell is going on with you? Didn’t we send you away from Blue Moon?” Finn crouched down next to her. Meanwhile, I still stood at my place. The scene in front of me was not the worst I’ve witnessed, but she once fought alongside us and was one of my best warriors. Only after what she’d been plotting with my Lilly, did we despise her. She was a traitor, for harming the Luna of Blue Moon.But this is not the picture I imagine ever happened to her.“Please, Alpha… kill me…” Her tears flowed, and she was covered in blood, dirt, and any other taint that we couldn’t picture.“We promised your mother….” I began to speak but she halted me by lifting her trembling hand.“Alpha, please forgive me. It’s all my fault and…. this is my punishment. Please end my misery..”I looked
