Unnatural: The Wildfire Epilogue
Dahlia’s POVIt'd been weeks since she disappeared. The local news had reported an explosion in the mountainous uninhabited area of Yukon and there was a hole in the ice. Nothing had been found. No bodies. No castle. Nothing but ashes in the snow. Aiden and Caleb were found in the woods in Fairfield by the Reyes vampires, barely conscious and agony written over their faces as they struggled to accept the reality of what Allyson had done. Post explosion, more rogues and black witches had been caught and killed thanks to the information Renee had given Caleb, the whereabouts of Ian Sinclair, the only known hybrid a mystery after he'd spoken to Caleb who'd shakily passed along a message from his dead friend, Renee. The last time I'd spoken to him, he'd been cold and distant, muttering 'I shouldn't have promised her.'Aiden Thorne had disappeared, his whereabouts known only by his cousin Tamara who looked grim anytime I asked about his state. Along with instructions to find the safe,

Ally’s POV Running. I was running through a fog so dense it was hard to see. It was a trap. I shouldn't have ever left the pack, but it's too late now. I wanted to prove myself. Too little, Papa had said. Maybe next year, my sister had whispered just before she left with the patrols to investigate the deaths happening in the human town farthest from the pack borders but under our jurisdiction. I shouldn't have followed them. But I did. "Keep moving, Ally. Please, we need to get you to safety." Kara yelled as we ran through the forest, her eyes glowing amber, the only indication that it was her wolf that ran beside me in human form. The vampires who'd attacked the village, rogues by the crazed look in their eyes, had wanted the wolves from my pack to come and find them. They'd come prepared, armed with silver ar

"Mama, am I a monster?Why am I different from everyone else?" "You are not, my darling. Just like there are many flowers in the world, the red camellia is the rarest of them all. You are like the red camellia. Rare. And that makes you special." Camille to her daughter, Ally (8 yrs old) _________________________________________________________ ALLY’s POV The first time my powers manifested, I was eight. Kara and I had been playing in our mother's garden in the backyard and something had bitten my bare foot. One minute I was screaming and the next, I saw my sister sitting on the ground several feet away from me, terror in her eyes. Our mother, heavily pregnant had rushed out to see what the commotion was about and gasped. That was when I looked around to see what used to be her garden. Nothing remained. Just a huge pile of ash. I'd

"What is wrong with Ally, mama? Is she sick?" "She is not sick. Just a little different.That is why you must not tell anyone about it and make sure she is safe and can protect herself. People will hurt her if they know she is different. We don't want that, do we?" "No. I'll always protect her. I promise." "I know, my beautiful Kara. My strong girl." Camille to daughter, Kara (11yrs) _________________________________________________________ ALLY’s POV My father was going mad with rage. Three more dead bodies had been found in less than two weeks. All showing the same symptoms: No pupils, fangs removed and black liquid oozing from their mouth. All in their teenage years. At first, we were convinced that whoever was doing this attacked only girls, until Jeff's dead body was found floating on the lake. Jeff was one of t

"You don't like talking. Are you shy?""No. Just different.""Oh, I'm Caleb, I like to paint. What do you like?""Flowers. Plants. Vegetables.""Vegetables are disgusting, especially broccoli, my mama makes me eat them.""You are disgusting if you don't like broccoli." "What's your name?""I don't tell people that hate plants my name.""I'll call you broccoli then."Caleb (10) to Ally (9). _________________________________________________________ALLY’S POVThough I hated to admit it, Raymond was the best party-thrower ever. Maybe if I could look past the horrible sex and his awful personality, I'd be ecstatic to be at this party. As I got to the door of his house and saw two people already doing it at the front yard, I groaned. Maybe not. I couldn't believe I'd let Caleb talk me into attending a party when there was a supposed killer on the loose. I couldn't believe there was even a party in the first place."Don't you even think about turning around. You can't back out now." Cale

"The migraines that usually knocked me unconscious whenever I used the fire when we were younger seems to have reduced. No, reduced is not the right word. After that night, anytime I try to use the magic, the migraines still send me to my knees and make me feel like my brain is going to explode but I'm able to stay conscious, even if it's for a short while." "Maybe it's a sign that you were never supposed to use the ability in the first place and you might not wake up from using it one of these days.""Then maybe it's better if it kills me. It's better than living and knowing that I'm the reason she's dead. That this 'gift' is why she's dead." Ally (16) to Caleb (17), days after Kara's funeral. _________________________________________________________ALLY’s POV "Christ, Broccoli. Where the hell have you been? Come on,let's get out of here before the oldies show up with the sentries." Caleb dragged me out of the party and I followed him to his truck, my body numb.It couldn't poss

ALLY’s POV A drop.More drops of water.A downpour of water.The eerie sound of thunder.Darkness covering the face of the earth.The trees dancing to the sound of rain."Hey, are you okay?" Caleb whispered in my ear, jolting me back to reality and I looked around at the gathering of parents in the school hall. I was here as Myer's guardian for the end of term parent conference and Caleb had offered to accompany me.I couldn't imagine how my life would've turned out if he wasn't a part of it. "Yeah, I'm fine" I answered with a smile and he nodded and continued paying attention to what was going on. He must've realized that I wasn't going to listen anyway. Thank you goddess, for Caleb.A drop.More drops. Everything in slow motion.A voice."It is your destiny.""Hey, Hey, Ally, Allyson. What's going on?" Caleb shook my hand."What?" I asked and blinked, trying to be aware of my immediate surroundings. "The conference ended ten minutes ago. I've been trying to get your attention. A

“Is he asleep?""Yeah, went out like a light the moment I cuddled him.""Our brother has picked favorites, little sister.""Kara, the only reason he lets me cuddle him is because he thinks I'm warmer than you are.""You are. Your body temperature has always been slightly higher than usual for our kind.""You think it's because of my gift?""With fire comes heat. I think it is highly likely."Conversation between Kara Black (18) and Ally Black (15)_________________________________________________________ALLY’s POV I stared at my reflection in the mirror and was met with my glowing eyes that were more yellow than amber at the moment. It was the morning after the full moon and as I sat in the front of my bedroom mirror, watching the color of my eyes alternate between three colors, I looked down at my hands, where balls of fire currently danced. My sheets were burnt, courtesy of one of the many nightmares I'd had after returning from the woods in the early hours of the morning. The he

Unnatural: The Wildfire Chapter 60
Ally’s POVThe last person I expected to see when I opened my eyes was sitting in front of me. Hale and hearty. Caleb. My best friend. My best friend who'd told me he was in love with me. My best friend who'd let them take me. I shifted away from him almost immediately and he looked hurt. "Allyson, look–""No, Caleb, you look." I showed him my cuffed hands and he winced. "They said it was to stop you from hurting yourself. All the times I came to see you, you were unconscious.""Because they were drugging me, Caleb. I don't even understand. I feel like I don't know you anymore. How could you have betrayed me like that?"His face turned to the side like I'd slapped him. I wished I did. "Betrayed you? You think I did this because I wanted to betray you? Why would even believe that?" "So, what the hell happened?" "The day I picked up Renee from the airport, she said something about helping us in whatever way she could and when I questioned it, she said she didn't do it for me. Tha
Unnatural: The Wildfire Chapter 59
ALLY’s POV"Wake up, lovebirds." The sound of glasses clinking together made me force my eyes open despite the throbbing headache and blurry vision. I was tied to a chair that was turned sideways, placing me in direct line of sight of Aiden's barely conscious form tied to another chair. "It makes me sad to keep you both sedated but that is the way it must be, we can't have this one–" Dorothea Marin finally appeared in my line of vision as she walked towards Aiden, lifting his face up and placing a soft kiss on his mouth. Biting her lip with his fang, Aiden opened his eyes and glared at her, seemingly forgetting that hurting her would hurt me. She smiled, cupped his jaw and turned his head until he was looking in my direction to see the cut on my bottom lip where he'd bitten her slowly close up. His eyes were hazy, the grey of his blue-grey eyes seemingly vanished beneath the blue that looked even darker as the light from the fireplace illuminated his face. "What did you do to him
Unnatural: The Wildfire Chapter 58
ALLY’S POVI'd counted the number of people I'd walked past as Dorothy led me through the corridors of what she called 'The Love Castle'. Twenty. Rogue vampires and wolves. And witches. I didn't recognize any of them. They seemed to know who I was and some lingered to stare at me before resuming on their way. Apparently, I was the only one who'd done something to deserve being in chains. After the revelation that Aiden was coming here, I'd shoved all of her supposed truths to the back of my mind. I was in denial. It was either that or believe all that she'd said when I was still finding it very difficult to wrap my head around what Renee Falls had revealed to me. Everyone around me seemed to have some shocking revelation whenever I was present. There was a scar on my right palm from where a witch who'd claimed to be blood of my blood had sliced me open. I assumed if I was crazy enough to believe Dorothy, it meant she was a Marin witch too. She'd done the same thing to Dorothea an

"There's been an attack, Aiden.""Where?" "Quebec. Rogue sightings. Uncle says his people have it under control. It seems the Gomez pack and the Benets are also having disagreements. Territory related." "The Alpha of the Gomez Pack is Grayson. Is it not?" "What are you thinking?" "Distractions. Distractions from the real plan, Tamara. If the factions are too busy fighting others–""No one will be as interested in the hybrids that are supposed to be myth."______________________________________________ALLY’s POVI'd spent most of my life dealing with involuntary unconsciousness after every fire incident. My ability crippled me, controlled me without my will. It was no wonder why I hated being forced into doing things I didn't want to do. Like being injected into unconsciousness. And being forced out of said unconsciousness. I should've been hysterical after everything that happened with Renee. I should've started the hysteria the moment I walked into a lake and came out in the hi

ALLY’s POV"Trust not the woman with hair of fire and blood as like that which runs through your veins.""Child of moon and fire.""Wake up, sister. Wake up." The instant I opened my eyes, I knew I wasn't alone. I was chained to a bed, silver cuffs holding my hands to the headboard. I was dizzy, nauseous and my vision was blurry but I could make out the shape of the woman standing by the window, with her back to me wearing a red cloak. Sniffing, my blood ran cold. Vampire. Not Tamara. The memories of the last thing that happened before I lost consciousness hit me like an arrow to the heart. Caleb had betrayed me. I shook my head, trying to believe that wasn't the case, trying to see it from his point of view.Whoever fed him those lies, that's who was to blame, right? I was sure that he'd believed he was doing it for my own good. After all, I needed whomever had the Deanton to break the curse and I needed the blood of a Marin witch. They had two of the elements, I had two. The moo

If you're reading this, it means that you finally opened the locket, my love. My prognosis is bad and I'm afraid that I don't have much time left to wait till you've come of age. I'm so sorry that I hid the truth from you for such a long time but it was the best I could do, that we could do to protect you. To make sure you stayed alive. If you've not already figured this out, I'll tell you. Christian and I are not your biological parents. I never got a chance to meet your father but your mother was the sweetest person there was and no, she didn't abandon you. She needed a place to hide you from some really bad people that wanted to take you because you were special and different. Like your real father was. She took her last breath after cradling you in her arms. I'm sorry that I couldn't save her like she saved Kara's life all those years ago, but I promised to protect you and love you like my own till fate came for you. Please know this, neither of us knew what exactly your fate was

"Dahlia, there is something you must do for me, please." "Anything, Allyson.""There is a place in London that I need you to check. A safe. Retrieve the contents and keep it safe. I'll come to you for it.""Send me the coordinates. I'll see to it personally.""Thank you.""And Allyson? Whatever you do, you must not let yourself be manipulated. Remember what Ariel said.""You saw something, didn't you?""It's close. Trust your gut."______________________________________________Ally’s POVI'd asked Aiden to bring me to the place where I'd almost been taken. It was a park situated not too far from where the festival had happened that night. Remembering nothing, I'd turned to leave but he'd held my hand and now we were sitting on a bench, watching the sunset. "Where'd you apply to? For college." Not allowing my surprise that he'd chosen to fill the silence with a random question show, I took a deep breath and answered as honestly as I could. It was the least I could do since I was pl
Unnatural: The Wildfire Chapter 53
Tamara’s POV"When do you think we should go in?" I asked Aiden. For someone who'd just heard that the lover he'd tried to kill had instead lived, he looked better than most, his hands clasped as his face remained calm. The forever apathetic mask. We were sitting in the coffee shop opposite the house, after returning from Curt Reyes' home. Neither them nor the king wolves had found any trail that would lead us to locating the Marin witches. And now that we knew they were making use of portals, that changed a lot of things. According to the witch order, the Marin witches stopped existing after majority of them were killed after the Great Purge. Unsaid were the words, by a certain A-telekinetic. Said telekinetic that looked like he'd been about to drop dead after hearing that he'd failed in carrying out his revenge. "They need some time to talk without worrying about us hearing them." He answered, referring to Allyson and Caleb. "How did you know all of those things that you and Ally
