I sobbed. "How could all this happen?"
[Gina!]
'I know what you are thinking, and you're right. He's no longer the brat whom you used to adore, he's on a completely different level.'
[No. He's still charles, he's just having a really hard time-]
'You should stay as far from him as possible, i don't know what he was trying to gain from speaking the truth about his birth but it doesn't change a single fact about him being dangerous. From now on, you have to listen to me very carefully.'
"What the hell? Why are you suddenly so talkative?"
The tides have turned, i can no longer stand idly. This involves me too, i know what he's planning. Based on his story from birth, my suspicions must be closer to the truth.
[Then can you fucking tell me?!]
'First you must focus to awaken my power, you don't need that book. I can tell you how to awaken my powers.'
[No, you must tell me everything first! I'm confused at everything! Like half of my memory has been wiped out.]
'Then what? You're gonna confront charles? Promise me you won't raise suspicion if i tell you. Listen to me, the spell he placed on your memories is unbreakable even for me since it could only be casted one in every individual, so it is very powerful. I don't know if you will ever regain those memories again but right now, those memories will only be a hinder to you.'
[No, he wouldn't erase my memory.. what for? Why .. i don't get it, why would he?]
'I told you, you can't trust him regardless of your past with him.'
[That's easy for you so say!]
'Christal! Both of us is powerless right now! I lost half of my powers to save you before, and using my last ounce of power to help you through all of this!'
[Should i be grateful?! Did i ask for all of this?! It all fucking started because of you! My memory is in pieces, i don't know what to believe anymore.]
I sobbed. "It's so tiring, as if i've been having this anxiety attacks for years already, like i actually should be used by this."
'Now is not the time to be anxious, you're better off cultivating your skills, you need to learn how to control my power. Or it'll be all too late'
[Then what? You want me to kill Charles?!]
'No, i just want you to protect yourself until you can attain your own happiness. I can teach you, you don't need that book to help you awaken.'
"ENOUGH!" I shouted as i seethed in anger. "If you think i'll fell for your trip when you're obviously trying to kill charles-"
'If you awaken, you can free the man at the basement.'
I flinched at the thought of it, my heart beating faster, i held onto my chest and frowned. "Why do i feel so sensitive towards that man? Could you also tell me?" My head slightly hurting.
'You'll faint if you try to break those sealed memories, so i suggest you stop.'
I sighed in disappointment.
HERUS's POV
"Let go of me!" I growled at the men who pinned me at the ground.
20 of them was around me trying to restrict me from going anymore as i tried to run away from this place. My fear got the best of me when brother told me about going back at that place. I could never imagine going back to such a disgusting place.
Finally, my brother comes in sight- but to my dismay he looked like he was in a bad mood.
He looked angrily towards me, as i growled back angrily too.
"Is it too scary for you to return to father?" He chuckled.
"Father? Don't associate me with that disgusting demon!"
He glares at me, stepping on my fingers, i whimpered in pain, my bones crushing from the impact. Tears fell down from my eyes as i held out a cry. "ARGH!!!"
"I asked for your assistance, what did i get in return?" He says.
I laughed. "You think i'll follow your plan? It was a foolish plan brother. I never thought you would actually be so sof- ARGHHH!!!"
He stepped on it again, my hand bled heavily.
"Last chance, would you do it?"
I frowned, my anger piling up from being powerless amongst all of this. "Why? Why do you have to endure it all alone all this time?"
"What?" He asked in shock.
"I know what's going in that head of yours, i'm still your twin no matter what you do." I smiled in pain. "So stop this grand plan of yours and let's start all over alright?"
"WHAT DO YOU KNOW?!" He pulls my hair upwards. "What could you possibly know about me brother? Because of our times when we were kids? Pft, ridiculous!"
"Stop pretending! I know-"
"It's too late to try and persuade me brother, the person you all been talking about is dead, i'm just a vessel for the devil himself."
In anger, i used all of my power to blast those guys away from me. My frustrations got the best of me as my brother stood still infront of me. His expressions remained stoic. "Shut up! Fine i'll do it. Since it's your ridiculous final wish! Happy?!"
He smiled. "No matter what, you're still my brother."
I shrugged him off. Since that day he awakened as a dead person, i could hardly talk to him in a normal manner, he always kept everything within himself that's why i mistook him for a stranger most of the time- for once, i couldn't accept a dead brother like him.
And knowing that he killed our own parents.
"Brother my ass, you keep threatening me to send me back to hell." I said angrily.
Now that i think about it, he never sent me to hell after that incident. He would keep threatening me but never sent me, as I wondered i suddenly remembered why i had such a phobia towards hell.
~M E M O R Y~
{"Brother!"} I grieved as i held onto his body, it's been several days since the witch killed my brother. The pack prepared a proper burial for him as we all grieved in pain.
Seeing him peacefully sleeping inside the coffin made me mad. {"Brother! I won't forgive them! I won't!!"}
My parents tried their best to hold me off but couldn't do so, i hugged the coffin so tightly that i could easily sworn to be buried along my brother. I knew his pains, i stayed by his side during his whole life, there was nothing i could do but feel pity and helpless but i could never imagine for this to happen sooner than i expected, i wasn't prepared for this.
That girl killed my brother!
I WON'T FORGIVE THEM!!
As time passes by, everyone eventually forgot about the death of my brother. While i could never forget, i would always visit his grave once in a while, talk with him about my day and cry out in pain.
My twin brother died a pitiful death, it was too much for a child for me that took care of him with most of my times as a kid. He was older but i protected him, cared, and loved my twin brother to the core.
{"Brother, it's been a week already, they've forgotten about you."} I said angrily. {"I can't forgive them.."} i sobbed.
I was going crazy, i thought. I dug my fingers into the soil and started digging.
{"You don't deserve to die!! I will revive you!!"}
It took me almost 5 hours to finally dug the deep coffin that was buried beneath, i smiled when i realised that i could finally do something for my brother. As i jumped down and opened the coffin, i was horrified to see nothing inside. I thought i was going crazy, being delusional that my brother's body was nowhere to be found.
In fear, i ran out and started calling for help, frantically shouting that it led my parents to me. They asked me what happened and i told them that brother's body is nowhere to be found. But all i heard from them was.
{"He's a weak human child, he must've turned into dust and mixed with the air."}
{"No! That's impossible! Someone just took brother! You have to believe me!"}
{"Herus! Snap out of it! A future alpha shouldn't be like this!"}
I pushed them away and ran out towards the graveyard once again. My eyes widened when i came face to face with a man's back towards me. A 6ft guy wearing a suit, he turns towards me and i screamed in terror.
DEVIL!!
He smirks. | "There you are." |
