CHAPTER 4

Prophecy!? How do I not know of this?

Oh right, I barely got to learn anything about the werewolf society. I didn't even get to go to school.

The only way I learned new things, from where I left off in elementary school were by using the thrown away textbooks and other things. Sad, I know but effective. Beats not knowing a thing.

They never caught me until that night. I shivered a little at the thought of it. I still have the scars or may be not, since I got this new body.

“No, I don't” I answered him snapping out of my thoughts.

“Weren't you taught of this and anything involving being a werewolf?” he asked curiously.

I just looked away from him shaking my head.  I don’t know why, but I'm ashamed. Even when it’s not my fault.

“Why not?” he asked.

I couldn't bring myself to answer him. He would probably think how I'm shameful and a waste like the rest.

I looked anywhere but at him and saw we were drifting closer to shore. I swam the rest of the way twisting the bottom of the shirt making water drip out.

I left my bag where I shifted so I didn't have any clothes to change into.

I felt a hand grab my shoulder turning me around. “Why not?” he demanded this time.

I looked away from him, “Because I never shifted. They said it would be a waste on me” I whispered.

I know he heard with his heightened senses.

“Well they are all idiots, because you are much more” he scoffed.

“I'm just a waste of space” I shook my head denying it.

I felt him grab my chin and lift my head up to meet his eyes. He stared at me with hard eyes as he spoke.

“You are not a waste of space. They are. You are much more important and much more powerful than any of them” he spoke with such truth that tears whirled in my eyes.

His eyes softened when he took in my tears. “Don’t let anyone bring you down” he hugged me genuinely.

I relaxed into his arms. I don’t know why, but I feel safe and at ease with him.

May be it’s because he saved me from that rogue, a stranger. That made me smile, after all these years. He looked at me in a different way, with no disgust or hate like everybody else.

By actually telling and making me feel that I worth a lot more. I couldn't help the sob that left me.

Soon enough a years worth of tears, came pouring out.

I found now we were under a tree with me crying and hanging on to him as he whispered words of comfort.

Soon enough my cries and sobs dialed down to hiccups, as he passed his hands through my hair.

“Better” he asked. I nodded and I froze a little, when I realized that I have been crying on his bare chest. I moved away my face heating up.

He just chuckled. I don’t know why but I don’t feel as uncomfortable as I was. I leaned back on his chest as he rubbed circles on my arms.

“You are like a brother, that I was supposed to have” I mumbled.

He stopped making circles on my arms before continuing “You have a brother?” he asked curious.

“Yeah, but he hasn't been acting like one” I spoke with distaste.

“Are you sure he is your brother?” he brought me to face him.

“Yeah. Why?” I asked him curiously. Many possibilities running through my head.

“According to the prophecy you don’t have a brother, just a sister” he stated seriously.

What?! How is that possible?

“I have a sister, but I doubt she's anything special. Unless you count her in bed” I snorted.

He chuckled a little at that.

“What’s this prophecy anyway?” I asked unsure if I would like this.

“I was wondering, when you would ask!” he chuckled.

“Shut up” I grumbled. I'm feeling cranky and sleepy. I looked at the sky to see it turn into kind of orange, pink and other mix of colors. The sun was rising.

“Well it all started centuries ago. The moon goddess wasn't always the moon goddess. She was a kind soul; she was one of the most powerful light witches. Her name was Aileen” he started. I snuggled into his chest staring at the sunrise. I have a feeling this will be a long story, that and he's so warm and comfy.

“She fell in love with the first Alpha, Alpha Filtiarn. However many didn't approve of their love so there were many conspiracies against them. No matter what, they were inseparable. Soon enough they gave birth to two twin girls. Many thought that they should not exist, they were half wolf and half witch, both powerful” he continued.

“Anyway so some werewolves and witches banded together to try and kill the sisters but ended up killing their parents instead. However they left a gift for their daughters. Aileen became the goddess because of her pure heart. She gave her daughters, all her powers. One twin, with the power of light. And the other with the power of darkness, as they balance each other out”.

“The moon goddess also gave a gift to the werewolf and witch society, mates. She wanted others to experience the love she and Filtiarn experienced. Soon enough she watched over mates, also matching them”.

“Alpha Filtiarn’s gift to his daughters was his pack. Both girls got his pack; which was the first and only pack to ever exist, which became two packs. One for the Light twin, the first and the only pure white wolf. And the other for the Dark twin, the first and the only pure black wolf. Alpha Filtiarn is said to be watching over the packs. And choosing the ones he believes are worthy to become Alphas. Because the twins died after a threat rose, killing them both. Despite them being killed, peace was restored and packs were made across the world”.

“What are you saying?” I asked him after taking it all in.

“You are one of the twins, the pure black wolf” he stated. But I'm still confused.

“How are my parents not my parents?” I asked him on edge.

“Well every one hundred years, the twins are reborn. They are direct descendents of the moon goddess and when they are reborn, they are sent back to Earth to their separate original packs” he spoke.

My parents aren't really my parents. I'm a direct descendent of the moon goddess. I am one of the most powerful werewolves on Earth. My. Parents. Aren’t. Really. My. Parents.  Yeah that’s one thing I really got from that.

I feel like bursting right here. “Are you all right?” he stared at me worried.

I just burst out into a really big smile, while he stared at me creeped out. “Are you kidding? This is the best day of my life. I escaped from an abusive pack and my parents that really aren't mine. And to find out that I am one of the most powerful werewolves on Earth. Too bad it took my mate rejecting me and raped for that to happen”. I felt emptiness, anger and hate again, as I said the last part.

I suddenly felt shaking underneath me. I looked up and saw Derek shaking like he was about to shift. “What’s wrong?!” I asked frantically. Was it something that I did?

“They did what!” he growled out. I froze, realizing what I just said. I laughed nervously a little.

“Come on, I smell her nearby” I heard a familiar voice. I froze yet again, color draining from my face when I recognized the voice and the smell.

The smell of Tritan Wolf pack.

I heard a growl in my head at that. What was that? I looked around.

'Oh sweetheart, I'm your wolf'.

Seriously, what’s with the timing? I have way too much bad luck.

'Are you kidding me?! This is going to be fun' she chuckled darkly.

I think, I may be afraid of my own wolf.
