["NO!! DON'T HURT HIM!!"]
["Pitiful child, you never could have save a weak human."]
["NO!"]
Stop.
["Didn't i tell you? One life equals a great sacrifice." She evilly laughs.]
W-What are these?
["THIS WASN'T PART OF THE DEAL!"]
["Thousandths lives for a single soul. A human soul."]
["N-No! I beg you! Don't let the war start! This is the only thing i can do for my pack! My family!"]
What are these memories?! Why am i kneeling infront of a dark witch!
I felt myself caged in an endless series of darkness as i looked beyond and behind, only my mind was creating scenarios which i don't know was made up or not, but the pain alongside with the memories made me to forcefully stop the process. Clutching my heart, i screamed at the top of my lungs.
Where am i?
WHERE AM I?!
I stared down to the endless darkness that was slowly consuming me, scared that i slowly felt numb. All of a sudden i didn't notice the large silver bars was infront of me, i looked down and saw the chains that was all over my body. I screamed, what was happening?!
"Christal." A young petite voice, almost like a child.
I looked ahead and saw a light, a girl standing on a distance away from me. "W-Who are you?!"
"It's done."
"What?"
"The contract has been terminated. You are free from her."
Her? Means the witch that was inside me? Contract?! What contract is she talking about. I gasped when the silver bars infront of me started collapsing, the chain that once bound me slowly dissipated in mid air.
"..and also from the memoriae." She sadly says.
My eyes widened when i felt a thousand electricity going all throughout in my body, my head banged and my eyes spun in all direction. Memories came coming back painfully in the processes, i screamed but i couldn't hear the vibration coming from my throat.
I cried, and cried.
I remember all, all of it. How could i've forgotten things?! How could i forget my greatest sin! Tears won't stop falling, i sobbed horribly infront of this glowing child. Everything was horrible. I promised h-him! But i..Fell in love with my mate!
"I had to stop the contract.. it was slowly consuming your life span. This was the only way i could think of to drove her out. To use memoriae, a dark spell to trigger the witch that was sleeping inside of you."
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO DO THAT?! WHO TOLD YOU YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT!" I growled, i was so furious knowing that she was behind all of this.
A young girl decided my path.
"Even if everything betrays you or tries to kill you, i will always be your ally. I will always be there, always."
"I don't need anyone. Not you or this world!"
I felt horrible because somewhere inside of me, i hoped that i never should've remember those memories, chains that bound me that i cannot be happy, i should face endless pain throughout my life.
My mate.
I still love him even now, this is the reason why i ran away from him. I didn't want to get deeply attached to him. Because if i do, it will be 10x more painful than what happened in the past. That i would be the one suffering the most, and i thought that i already suffered enough.
I-I can't love him! I don't want him to hate me! Reject me! No! I don't want that! If he knew..
if he knew..
He would never look at me in the eyes ever again.
Going back to my senses, my body screamed pain but that didn't stop me from opening my eyes and getting up carefully, i'm awake. I saw the wolves that surrounded us, my mate and-
Kiel?!
He laid there infront of me, his eyes directed towards mine but i knew, he was no longer alive. I gasped as tears started falling from my eyes, i did this.
I killed Kiel!
Feeling the despair and anger towards my self, i screamed at the top of my lungs, everyone seemed so silent hearing my voice echoing around me. I crawled towards Kiel even though my body could barely move. I felt deja vu, this scene in front of me was like that time that seeing dead people infront of me haunted me in a million of ways, torturing myself to the ends.
"No! No! Kiel wake up!"
I was so sad that i didn't sense my mate already inches away from me, he pulled me away from khen and embraced me tight. I immediately felt light and calm, all the tears that won't stop falling just seconds ago also stopped. My mind was in a calm state just by feeling his embrace.
My mate.
I frowned, this might be the last time. I heard my wolf scream inside of me, telling me to stop whatever it is that i would be doing. I smiled, it was painful but i smiled. I pulled away from him and studied his face, he was so perfect. My mate.
"Christal.." he whimpered. "My love everything's gonna be alright. Please don't leave."
I caressed his cheeks, his scent so intoxicating making me want to kiss him so bad. All is painful, all is too much. How could i part when i knew myself that parting would only be torturing myself?
I doubt that if he knew my past, what i did he would still accept me.
I did something so horrible to him.
I cried.
"Shh stop crying, it's over."
Right. It's over.
At the side of my eye, i saw Daniel. I sensed his sorrow over Kiel's death. And i also sensed anger l.. towards me. I can't blame him, Kiel changed because he created a will to protect me, even going as far as betraying his own pack. Everyone was quiet, all eyes on us, on me.
My eyes landed over Herus, he smirked.
He knew i remembered everything now, even his face. I remember who this guy is. Everything i remember, that's why i don't belong here anymore.
I don't belong here.
Using my powers once again, my eyes turned red as blood. There's no turning back from this christal, everything is for the better. Being in my mate's protection won't help, it'll just make things worst.
"No." My mate growls, he knew that i was using my powers. He was about to pin me to the ground if i didn't push him so hard that he was pushed back meters away from me.
I looked away from him, landing my eyes to Herus he reached out his hand to me.
"Don't come any closer!" I directed it to my mate as i held a claw to my throat. He was stopping himself from coming to get me and i knew that if he does he would be successful. That's why this is the only choice.
The wolves around us growled towards us, i placed my hand to Herus's hands and the Alpha King angrily growled. "MINE!" He ran with so much speed that no one could've seen that but me. But i already expected a reaction like that, that's why as soon as i held herus's hands, i dragged him out from the circle of wolves and ran with great speed.
I wasn't suprised that he could keep up with me.
"So we're running." He chuckles.
I don't want to talk to this guy, fuck him and my past. Everything's back to normal but this time it's worst, for me. As i ran through the forest, i heard his howl filled with despair and anger.
I wiped my tears.
"Look's like your mate isn't chasing after us." He says amused.
I frowned, why am i sad? I ran expecting to get away from him but did i hope that he would chase after me? Maybe he got tired of it, after all i've been running away from him from the very start, even in the end. I tried to surpass all of my emotions and slapped myself, trying to wake up from reality.
"You want him to chase us? If you do you'll probably die." I respond.
"So when i die you'll happily get caught by him? You're way too obvious for a girl."
"Shut up." I growled.
"Still can't believe you forgot the shit you've done in the past. But what's more unbelievable is that your mate is the Alpha King, that would be scarring."
I clenched my teeth, this guy just don't know how to shut up. I immediately stopped and slammed him on the tree, locking him up in a choking stance. "I'll kill you." I growled viciously.
He laughed. "You can't."
Damn it! I let go and turned away, trying to calm my state of mind i inhaled the forest air and close my eyes, trying to meditate for a while, i remember everything now, even the things that i don't remember before, i do now.
I hate this guy's face, he's just disturbing.
