14. THE PROPHECY

UNKNOWN  POV

Walking in shadows through a dark alleyway, a shabby club house could be seen at the end of the alleyway with it only yellow bulb at the entrance serving as the only security light in sight. Broken windows which is caused by previous fight that occurred in the club house.

Stepping on the butt of the cigarette I just disposed as I prepared to light another. I pushed open the door which makes a cracky sound as it gives way for me to enter, as the smell of sweaty body and sex infected scent filled my nostrils.

This isn't my first time in this club, Infact I'm a regular customer here. I come here to get wasted, since this is the only place in this city that sells beer and wine that can get an extraordinary being like me wasted.

"Here is your usual man" the bar man slide the cup of shot in my direction. I took the cup and drain the content in it in one go. No rank, position or title matters any more as long as you are in the club. You get to meet different species and express your emotions, your angry and frustration in a fighting booth with the other species.

"Give me another shot". I said sliding the glass back to the bar man. This time I sip the drink without rushing myself. Giving me time to reflect on my past. I guess it time for me to go home, but before I go I need to do something, I need to see Julian again to confirm if the prophesy she told me four years is actually true. I actually believe it's true since the bastard killed my one true mate.

I squeeze my fist in angry as I remember the twisted body of my mate whom I'm yet to know not even her name, lying on the ground not too far from the border of the pack. I found the bastard cursed wolf not far from her dead body, with blood covering his fur, most of which belongs to my mate. I went berserker and fought with it, since then I have not been myself. I turned to drinking and violence to make me forget my pain.

"Man come and spare with me if you are man enough". A pale man with red eyes said hitting my biceps trying to provoke me into fighting him.

"Let me be". I growled and shoveled his pale hand off my body. His boney hand grip my shoulder tightly and pull me back to face him. For a skinny man, he sure has the strength to pull a bulky man like me.

"I said, let me be". I tugged my shoulder off his grip and smashed the glass in my hand on the table, I watch the glass shatter into pieces. Silence filled the room and numerous pair of eyes faced my direction.

I paid for my drink and the damaged glass before paving my way into the ocean of thick bodies, as everyone turned back to their business.

I open the door to the only room no one dares to venture into except your are summoned by the inhabitant of the room.

Stepping into the dark room in which the only source of light is coming from the orb on the center of a werched table, emitting green light from it. The face of a wrinkled woman can be seen behind the table with her eyes closed in meditation. The smell of burning incense reaches my nostrils, with the back of my hand I covered my nose from the offensive smell coming from somewhere within this room.

I had my seat on the floor with my legs tucked underneath me, waiting for her to be done with her medication, I'm sure she can already sense my arrival.

Looking around the room it is impossible for a me to make out anything in the room, even with my enhanced sense of sight. She must have cast a spell preventing me from seeing anything except from the green orb on the table and her face.

"I already told you what you want to hear four years ago". A shaky voice said, I look at the woman opposite me, her eyes were still close but I know for such that the voice I heard was from her.

"I want to be sure if you are right or it is not one of your made up story to throw me off guard". I said still staring at her shut eyes.

"You and I know that you believe the prophesy I told you  and I don't lie I tell the truth".

"What then can I do to avert the prophesy from happening"? I asked, has I tighten my fist keep my rage locked up. I know that any wrong move from me can get me killed by this witch.

"I told you the only way is through the girl. You can leave my abode and don't come back if you aren't summoned". She said, as her eyes open all of a sudden and raised her hands In the direction of the door.

"Leave before I add more to your problem, moreover you are the only monster here. Now leave this instant". I still feel reluctant to leave, how dare she order me around, before I could say anything back at her, I felt the room closing up on me, I was finding it hard to breathe, I knew she was the one responsible, as I open my mouth to throw profane words at her, my throat tightens.

"Get out of here before I kill you finally". Still holding my throat trying to draw in air, I race out of the room. Upon my exit from the room the contaminated smell of the club fill my lungs, bending over with my hands on my knee, I begin to breath little by little.

A tap on my shoulder made me look up, I saw the pale man I met earlier at the bar, who was trying to get me to fight with him. The pale man rested his back on the the brick wall, a cigarette sticking out of his mouth.

"She is one cruel ass bitch right". He said taking a draw from the cigarette in his mouth before puffing it out. Instead of replying to his comment, I stood up straight and prepare to leave his side.

"Where are you going, I wasn't done talking to you". I'm actually not ready to have any conversation with this man but seeing that he is still following me I have not choice but to turn to him.

"What the hell do you want"? I asked, as I turned to face him.

"I've a deal for you, not exactly me but my boss have a deal that will profit the both of you". I scoffed at the words of this pale vampire. Yes the man was a vampire all along. What deal will I possibly make with my vampire, an enemy of my kind for that matter.

"If you don't have better words to say I would, be on my way now and don't you dare make any move to follow me, if you do I won't hesitate to give you that fight you've been craving and I will definitely end up sliting your lifeless heart out". Leave the bewildered vampire I moved towards the exist of the club.

"He know about the prophesy and wants to help you". Hearing the vampire say this words, I pause in my step then turn slowly to face the vampire.

"What did you say"? I asked, as I trend my step back to him.

"My boss knows about the prophesy and he is ready to render his assistant".

" how I'm I to believe what you are saying is true, I'm very sure you don't even know what prophesy I know, it could be another prophesy that doesn't have any relation with me".

"I'm sure we are talking about the same one, that is why he asked me to memorise the words in the prophesy, he knew you won't believe me until I said what I'm about to recite". I look at him still trying to depict if his words are actually correct or made up lies. With my hands folded I prepared to listen to what he is about to recites, in order to confirm my suspection.

"A child is born marked by a cursed
It arrival is to redeem the cursed
The curse will be redeem and it lost glory will be restored,
By one single decision of the marked child.
The wrong decision shall result to war
The right decision shall bring peace to the land."

The shocked that filled me as I heard the the vampire recites the prophesy I heard four years ago, made me stand still.

" take me to your boss".
