In a fright, she forcefully woke up from her sleep, panting heavily. She just had a dream and in that dream, she wasn’t a werewolf but a normal human girl and she met someone who is werewolf.Javier Alvaro, the same rang a bell in her head but still, she couldn’t remember where she heard it. It was as if some part of her memory were wiped away.She touched the side of the bed, getting a cup of water. She came back from hospital with James with her, who offered to stay with her, claiming that he doesn’t know if he should trust Carter with her at this times.She stood up, going to the living room where she met James eating some popcorn and watching a series on Netflix. He turned when he felt the presence of someone behind him. “What are you doing here?” He asked, standing up and helped her to the chair.“I had a nightmare. It feels like I am not the person I am living as James. A lot is happening to me and I can’t point a straight finger at it.” She cried out on his shoulders.He patte
Flashback. A Twenty Years Aurora. It was just noon and she was planning on going to the waterfall to get some fresh water for her mother and then, get some fresh vegetables from the farm. Even though it is a crime to pluck the vegetables as it belongs to the Holdings, Aurora doesn’t really care. It was there only means of survival and she has been doing it for years. One thing is she is not sure if it was already noticed by the gardener but she always does it. She put her hair back into a ponytail using the one and only scrunchie she owns before picking the water bowl. “Mother, I will be leaving.” She screamed, moving out of the house and she didn’t even get a response from her mother. She was okay with it because her mother had just found out the means she takes to get the vegetables. Her mother was against it, she knew the consequences of what awaits then when the Holdings find out. But as usual, Aurora didn’t pay heed to her, no one can stop her. Besides, they were the
It was as if she was jolted out of her dreams as she abruptly screamed, earning the attention of the securities passing by.She was helped into a small area where they fanned her and gave her water until she recovered her composure. “Thank you so much.” She said to them with a smile then stood up.One thing she wasn’t understanding is why she is having a flashback, as if she is living a life that doesn’t belong to her. But that wasn’t what matters to her the most.Is she truly the lady she is seeing in her dreams or is just an illusion? She just can’t point finger at it and it very confusing that thinking about it knocks her off.Finally able to gather all her courage, she walked into the club, stopping by the reception. She was left in awe, seeing how the place was beautified.“Who are you here to see?” The lady that was dressed in flimsy clothes standing by the reception asked.For a minute, Aurora loved what she was wearing and wished she was actually the one wearing it but then, t
It was indeed my victory and also a day for me to celebrate as I have gotten Aurora. The plan of drugging her came from her cousin.His excuse was to make things easier for her so that she won’t be much traumatized but we both know that she will be more than that when she finds out that she was actually played.James really played off half his dept by finding out where she had hidden Carter and also, by staying by my side instead and that earned him a little of my respect. “So what is next?” Gaby asked as Aurora was taken back to the dungeon in the clan.That is where I will keep her, a place Russell will never have access to her, no matter how hard he tries. “We also go back to the clan and of course, after getting my trophy.” I responded.He furrowed his brows in confusion. “You mean Carter right?” He asked.“Oh yes.” I answered.It was very much evident that I was more than happy in my voice. “I have sent the boys to get him so we are to meet them by the portal.” He informed.As I
Before. Aurora couldn’t close her eyes that night, she waited to hear the footsteps of her father walking into the house but she didn’t. Maybe she is still naive as her mother had said but yet, she couldn’t force herself to believe it. Her mother isn’t pregnant right? When her father is always away, then how can she be? A question that kept on roaming about on her mind, and she knew the only person that has an answer to it is her father, so she’d rather deprive herself of sleep and wait until he returns, she wouldn’t mind doing that. Just so she could avoid issues that will later resurface. Aurora turned to the other side of the bed, making the bed dipped as she shifted. The lamp shone brightly, though the brightness couldn’t be seen from a far angle. She could hear rustles in the bush and she heaved a sigh. It must be her father as her mother had said earlier. She waited for the door to be opened, only for her to hear the cries of the poor chicken that must have been
And that was how Aurora was dragged out of the house by her father. She didn’t even get a chance to tell her poor mother goodbye, even though she is sure she won’t be missed. She silently let her father do as he wanted, yet that got him the attention of others. Neighbors came out, pointing hands at them but she didn’t pay much attention to them until she heard something that stirred her. “Yes, that was how he had gotten her sister killed. He stole her Lord Javier and that was it, she was gone.” She heard an old woman told the other lady. She hurriedly turned to face them and they gave her a pity look. If what they had said was real, then she will surely avenge the death of her sister. Lord Javier doesn’t deserve to be alive after what he had done to her sister. And she is sure that her sister wasn’t the only victim. For instance, her, she is to be taken to the city, to lord Javier’s house and she will be his concubine, a right word she will use. She was flinched into the car
Before The first thing Auroraaaaa did was take another bath that day and when she was done, she checked the mini closet that she had passed while going into the bathroom. Indeed it was filled with clothes her size, the types she likes and even the night wares, they are something she is comfortable in. Means someone did a thorough investigation on her or, her mother gave her out, either way, it has to be one of this way. She picked a pick floral gown that was tailored down to her ankles. If she wasn’t that tall, then she would have been walking and stepping on it, and by the end, she will end up give herself a wound. “What does Javier looks like?” She asked, as she sat down perfectly on the chair, facing the mirror. To fair, she has never set her naked eyes on him. She only saw his hand sketched portraits in the markets up for sell, or when he is making an announcement to the downtown citizens, other than that, there is nothing that she knows about him. And if she is to
After Noel was done resting, he didn’t even care to take a nap as he had wanted. He quickly wore a new set of black clothes and head down the stairs.He met Gaby and Isla discussing about the situation the mansion was in and how they are to get everything on track. “Gaby, let’s go.” He called out.Gaby shared a look with him because as far as he is concerned, he hasn’t made an decision about going out with Noel that way.Actually, he had thought that Noel will stay in to rest until the next morning before he will let the entire clan see him. “I am going to the dungeon.” He told Gaby whose mouth formed an o shape.Gaby let go of Isla’s hand that he was holding and followed Noel. “Carter has been kept in the other dungeon. But I am planning on bringing him back here.” Gaby informed referring to the dungeon close to the mansion.“Not yet. Let him stay there until in the morning when he will be executed.” Noel ordered. They walked faster than normal, reaching the dungeon and this time, G
Seven months later.Aurora sat on the table with a child on her laps as she rocked him back and forth until he stopped crying.Over the month, she has realized that it was best she’d forgotten everything and forgive. Actually, that wasn’t it.A day came and she had a dream, the goddess asking her to forgive Noel about everything that he did because it was obvious that he regretted everything and beside it wasn’t his fault.Everything happened because of her step father, so she had no choice than to forgive him but she couldn’t forget about the fact that her mate killed her own mother. It was unbelievable to her. “What are you thinking of?” Noel asked as he entered the room.He was dressed in a black shirt and grey pants that hugged his body. Seeing his dressed that way made her more jealous because she was sure that other girls looked at him. “Nothing.” She responded.Although, her voice sounded off and he knew why she was angry so he couldn’t resist the urge to laugh. “Please, I have
It was the night which Aurora had asked the goddess to help her out, the night which she had gotten trapped in a nightmare and also, a day which she had decided that it was best for her to commit suicide.She had thought that everything will end if she ended her life but no, she was wrong. There was a lot left for her to find out and also to solve the mystery. And at the same time, a witch which was bullied and abused because she had gotten pregnant by a human who ended up leaving her gave birth to a child. The female child happened to be weak and fragile that she wouldn’t ever fight for the rights of her mother so the Goddess did her thing. Aurora was reincarnated as the baby over the night, her memories long gone.The witch took in Aurora, after promising the goddess that she will protect her and makes sure no harms come to her until she is ready to face the worst.The more Aurora grew, the more she was hidden from the eyes of the world. The witch whose name is Naya did her best f
Sharing a bed with the vampire King isn’t something I had wanted to do. Never had I imagined that I would end up getting pregnant for the vampire king.Weeks have passed since we had shared a bed, I could feel the changes in me yet I didn’t tell anyone. I don’t want to give anyone false hope.And also, I have been getting some minor flashbacks that come with headaches which my mother had asked me to ignore. But I couldn’t just ignore it.I feel like there is more to it that she isn’t telling me. And especially when she made sure she was clear about me not getting rid of the bracelet on my hand.I knew it had something to do with my past which I can’t remember. But I didn’t push it. By the time I confirm that I am pregnant, I will use it against my mother and get every piece of information out of her. “What are you thinking of?” Grace, the maid which was later assigned to me asked.I shook my head, smiling at her. Among all the maids here, she is the only one that genuinely loves me.
“Look mother, it isn’t my fault that you got told off by the girl. She has no idea who you are.” I exclaimed.My mother claimed that she and Kate had decided to go and visit the golden jewel when they heard the story that one was chosen.I have never imagined that they will actually there to see her, without even coming here to me first and now that things have moved the other way round, they decided that they should come to me.Kate look fragile and weak, yet she walked out of her comfort zone. “Still doesn’t mean she should be rude to us. I mean she should have realized that we are important people in the clan.” Mother argued.I palmed my face. At the moment, even Gaby had ran away from the room because he wasn’t ready to argue with my mother on things that aren’t necessary. “Okay mother. What do want to be done now?” I asked, just so peace will be regained in the mansion.“I want to have that girl punished.” She ordered, raising her voice hard.Hearing that, I began to laugh hard.
To save my mother from going through humiliation in the pack, I had to agree to be a concubine to Lord Noel as they call him.I would have strictly followed my mind and done nothing but for my mother. Gaby and Noel tried to talk me into signing a contract with them because after giving birth, I will have no access to the child.Although I was okay with it, I didn’t agree to sign the contract because I am sure that it will be used against me later in the day.Those people are not to be trusted and even if they are, I wouldn’t trust anyone here.They are fishing and I keep on getting something like a flashback whenever I close my eyes. “Aurora.” My mother’s voice called out.She was escorted into the room which I was kept by Gaby. “Yes, ma.” I answered, rushing to her.I gave her a side hug, looking at Gaby who had come in with her. “Anything else?” I snarled seeing that he didn’t attempt to go out.“Yes. Noel had requested that you know that he will be coming in here to spend the nigh
When that particular came up with the name Aurora, I had thought it was normal. Not until she ended up being the golden jewel of the pack.It can’t seem to be a coincidence so I ordered Gaby to call her in with her mother. Her mother used to be the clan witch, well until she committed a crime and she was abandoned.I had thought she left the clan to other clans or to the human world, only to find out today that she is still around, with a child. “They will be here in ten minutes.” Gaby informed, pushing the door to the study opened.“That’s good.” I responded.“Kate doesn’t seem to be getting better?” He asked.Over the years, Kate got ill and she couldn’t even conceive. It was heartbreaking to see her that way. “It is sad.” I answered taking a seat.Not the witch or the doctors could dictate what is wrong with her. A witch went ahead of saying she was possessed by a soul which made her way.I never believed. Isla tried to say maybe the Aurora that committed suicide came back to aven
Nineteen years later.The wind blew through the surface, leaving nothing but dust and the dried leaves rustling. I sucked in a deep breath, there is nothing to be happy about here.Today, I clocked nineteen, together with other kids, and not just that, an event has been organized for those that are celebrating.It is called a crossover, as we had become mature and ready to choose those that we will love to spend our entire lives with. That isn’t something that I would be bothered about, leaving with a witch for my entire years has made me lose total interest in marital affairs.My mother, the clan witch said marriage shouldn’t be in my heart and it isn’t. She said life will be different for me, I have a lot to achieve and also a lot to learn about.Then again, I wasn’t the type that cares about what goes on around me. As long as everyone stays out of my lane. “Aurora.” My mother, the witch screamed, pulling my ears.I yelled in pain, holding the ear that she had just pulled. “I have
I would have sworn that it was a lie Aurora didn’t die but right in front of me was the cold death body of Aurora and it seemed she had died for a long time. I shook my head in disbelief before turning to Gaby. “I will inform James now so that he can get her body and take care of everything.” He uttered before I could suggest anything. “That is great. Where is Kate and Isla?” I asked.Since after the announcement, I haven’t set my eyes on anyone of them and I meant the announcement of Aurora’s death. Isla should definitely be shaken by it, seeing that she had considered Aurora like a sister and it is indeed against her will to see aurora staying here, she just had to keep it up to avoid getting on my bad side. “Isla is locked in her room while Kate went away with your mother.” He informed.I checked the time; it is a bit late for mother to take Kate with her, no matter what the situation was, not after our wedding day. “Why?” I breathed standing up.All this while, I have been squatt
“Do you Kate, take King Noel of the Kindred of the Ebony Kingdom as your lawfully wedded husband ?” My father asked.Since the witch is busy with the ending ceremony of the sacred day, and vampires don’t have priest, my father decided to put it up and wed us. “Yes.” Kate answered, her voice was laced with happiness.If only she knew that the happiness she wants to find can’t be found in me really. “Do you Noel, take Kate as your lawfully wedded wife?” My father asked, turning his attention to me.I couldn’t find my voice to answer and I could feel every one staring at me, as if it was something serious. Maybe to them, or to my parents it is. “Do you Noel, take Kate as your wife?” Father asked again, shorting the vows.“Yes.” I finally answered. I could see the relief look on my mother’s face as I answered.Not only my mother, but everyone seemed happy. Even Kate was tensed but she didn’t say it out. “You may now kiss the bride.” I pulled in Kate, putting my forehead on hers until our
