ANGEL
"You have a stepsister" I told him with tears pouring
down my cheeks. "I have a what?........ and then he
screamed, holding his head like his head was about to
implode,then he started changing, it seemed like it was
forceful like some part of him didn't want the change.
This was the reason I didn't want to tell him earlier, I
knew he couldn't handle the truth. All through my
narration, his eyes kept changing from brown to red, he
was totally unstable, he was probably fighting his wolf but
gave in when he learnt about his step sister. Too much
has been hidden from him, I knew how he felt, after two
centuries on this earth, he is just getting to know he still
has a living family. I knew it would tear him apart and it
was the beginning of the story, because when I am done,
he will surely hate me forever.
His change was forceful like someone was impeding it
probably his sister, but it didn't work. He changed fully
and if fear could be personified, it would be the massive
living beast in front of me. I am tall myself, I took my
father's height, I am 5ft 11.5 inches in height but my
head could barely touch his mane. He could be reaching
6ft 6 or 7, and fvcking big. He was bigger than last I saw
his wolf a few days ago.I was told His rage feeds his wolf
and if he was this big, then his rage knew no end and it
surely mean my end.
His wolf just kept looking at me expecting me to move or
probably run but I stood my ground. If there was one
thing I learnt from my dad during one of our many hunting
spree, he said if one encounters a predator who feeds on
fear, one should stand his ground even if it comes close
to you. I had an encounter with a wolf when I was nine,
but I wasn't scared because I remembered what my dad
told me. I stood my ground and didn't even flinch when it
came and started sniffing after growling endlessly to
scare me out of my wits. He sniffed for a while before
finally leaving.
I did the same to Richard's wolf but this time was
different because he just stood there, he didn't move but
it's glowing red eyes was fixed on me. His wolf was sure
very proud, I didn't know what to do no more, so I said, "I
know you are pissed but I planned to tell you but......."
"Keep quiet, I didn't ask you to talk " it said. Jeez!!! It's
voice was so creepy, but who was it to tell me shut
up,with a scowl on my face, I continued," but your.... " it
growled and when I saw its gigantic fangs, he didn't have
to say it again, I kept quiet.
After what seemed like hours of standing and staring at
each other he spoke but this time, it seemed like a
combination of Richard and the wolf's voice, so they
were synching or something all this time and I thought it
wanted to kill me, "Why did it take me over two centuries
to get to this size and height. My previous size had
always 5ft 5 , now I am far bigger. Explain that and I
might spare your life." I swallowed another saliva lump
down my throat. This guy is just too smart, he always
start asking questions from the root.
"Your sister has been bonded with you for decades and
that's why she has lived for this long. The ritual that
brought you from the place in the underworld used the
moon as power source and that's why you're at your
strongest during the night. So, she simply tapped to the
immortality of the moon using you as her channel . It's
why you didn't change to your full size then because
someone else was using some of your strength to fuel her
spell. But the bond was broken when you bonded with
Lucy, since you decided to have a soul mate, no other
bond is stronger than a soul mate's bond. Since then, she
has been mortal, but when you broke your bond with Lucy
and bonded with me, the bond came back in place but
you could get your full size because I am also channelling
her in order to do magic, because I shouldn't be able to
since I am not a living creature right now. So it's like I am
sharing the bond with you, so there is no more
impediment to your wolf full size. The bond is how she
has been able to watch you all these years and guide you
from George's creatures until now, because it was time
for you to fulfill your destiny. "
" Hmmm" it said, " Why now, why wait until now?" he
asked. "The prophecy is forked and we weren't sure how
it was gonna be fulfilled. When it Said," your first fruit",
we initially thought it was Lucy and left the both of you
but when you both bonded, we discovered the "first fruit"
wasn't referring to Lucy, it was actually referring to
another individual. Lucy's mom. "
