The Truth
In the early 1900's, Werewolves were one of the strongest
Supernatural creatures that ever existed.
That was until the WereKing went crazy and killed
thousands of innocent humans and supernatural creatures alike.
It is said that a coven of witches and warlocks gathered together
to put a spell on the werewolves, making their wolves dormant.
Causing them to lose their ability to shift and to have any contact
with their wolves, the worst part is that any chance of finding their
fated mate was gone.
This resulted in a lot of wolves going crazy.
and killing themselves, making the population low.
The prophecy is that a young girl would be born with a special ability to awaken all werekind.
Once she has found her fated mate and completes the mating ritual , her mate will become the strongest
wolve out there, thus making him the new King.
Moon Goddess help the chosen one. She will be the most wanted
creature to ever walk the earth.
It didnt occur to me that hearing all these tales would involve
me in some way.
Who believes in old tales? I know i didn't. Sooner or later, my beliefs will change when I meet my fated mate.
Lilys P.O.V
Waking up on the last day of term should have been the highlight of my week.
Enjoying the thought of what my friends and i would get into over school break gave me the biggest grin.
I'm suddenly pulled out of my thoughts by the reality that Aaron and his gang of followers
will be at school waiting to make my life a living hell.
I mean come on, after you reject someone you're meant to get over it.
Aaron, on the other hand, just wont let it go. he's a stuck up, spoilt brat.
I just can't ever picture us together every time I think of him, I shiver. It wasn't my fault that when I rejected him it was in front
of all his friends, they all laughed at him and caused a big scene that ended with him in the principal's office.
I was contemplating if I should get out of bed or just hide out under my blanket for the day,
That was until the smell of breakfast cooking and freshly brewed coffee came through my
bedroom door. All of a sudden, I found myself walking to the kitchen while my stomach growled, cursing my weak stomach.
Reaching the kitchen, I noticed my mother was busy cooking. My grandmother was reading her morning newspaper while stirring her cup of coffee.
"Morning everyone" I sang as I gave each of them a kiss and hug "Morning my baby", Mother replied as she placed a plate of food in front of me.
I shiver feeling like someone was watching me. I glanced around and noticed my grandma was staring with a worried expression.
"Lillian, please take a seat. We need to have a talk" Strange. She never calls me by my full name. She was never one to be
so serious about everything or anything, which made me worry.
I decided to take a seat across from her and prepare myself for one of her chats.Were we moving again? Is someone dying?
Did Mum get fired? All these thoughts crossed my mind while my grandmother sat there and stared.
"Please eat honey" They sat there just staring, freaking out. I started to panic so I sat there forcing myself to eat my breakfast.
"Lily, we have decided to finally tell you about our past" as grandma was talking, mother placed a small box in front of me.
"Do you remember the stories I used to tell you when you were little?" looking at her confused.
"The bedtime tales?"was all I could manage to spit out.
"Yes, but they are not just tales, they are our family's past. Everything in my stories is real".
I was trying not to laugh, thinking she was joking. My mother knew me better.
"Lillian, behave yourself, what Grandma is saying is the complete truth . We are descendants of werewolves, And we believe you are the chosen one".
Unable to focus on my mother, I found myself staring at the box sitting in front of me.
"It's calling you, isnt it? The moon goddess chose you" Grandma mentions before passing the box.
"What is it?" disbelief rang in my tone.
"Dont be scared. It's been in our family for hundreds of years, waiting for the chosen one to be born. It appeared in your bed when you came home from the hospital. Ever since, it has showed up every year around your birthday, It is said that the chosen one is the only one that can open it".
She tries to take my hand, I yanked it away.
I could see disappointment all over my grandmother's face.
"It is a necklace. You must always wear this to let the moon goddess know you are ready. This will let your fated mate know aswell".
Looking at my family, I quickly grabbed the box, unsure of what was going on.
How can one little box contain a necklace that would control the rest of my life. I decided to open it.
Curiosity caught the better of me. There in the box was the most beautiful necklace that I had ever seen. All of a sudden, a blue light flashed from the necklace, but in one instance, it vanished.
"Will you wear it today please?"i turn and notice my mother leaning on the door.
"Do I even get a choice?"
" Of course you do. Your 18th was last week. Your going to save so many people".
How can I save so many people when I'm just learning about this now?.
Did I even believe that werewolves and other supernaturals were real?.
"Mum, I cant. I don't even believe in all this stuff. Im Just .... I'm just me " Confusing washes over me at the relisation of my future.
"my darling girl" I hear my mothers foot steps as she makes her way to me.
Tucking my hair behind my ears "Have you ever wondered why you never fit in ? You are the strongest girl I have ever known. If anyone can do it , it will be you my love".
"Do you know why I wouldn't let you play sports? It's because of your wolf, just because your wolf is
dormant doesn't mean you don't have one". I sigh asmother wipes my tears away .
"Lillian, I've known about our kind ever since I was a little girl" she pauses i stare into her eyes and see fear in her eyes.
"I've known you've been the chosen one ever since you were born. I've tried to make your life as safe as I could. I've known this whole time that someone could come and take you away from me and i have waited until the very last moment to tell you". She places a kiss on my cheek before she leaves.
I agree with mum on wearing the necklace, once finding the right outfit to compliment it. I grabbed my school bag and start my way to the bus stop.
I suddenly find myself coming to a complete halt. The feeling of need and want engulfed me.
I look up and i find myself getting upset. I'm standing in front of Aaron's house. I want to run as fast as I can but my body won't let me. I feel a pull I need to go in, but im pulled out of my thoughts when the school bus drives past me.
I barely made it on, I began to pray, hoping that the rest of the day will be normal and uneventful.
