PROLOGUE - AVERY'S PAST LIFE
812 Words
"Enough!" I heard my sister growl behind me. She's been a real pain in the ass for me since I took over as Alpha but I love her, I just can't kill her like the rest. We're moon twins.
"I want to change our destiny, Eve." I said, not glancing at her and continued my hunt. I'm the Alpha of the Titan Wolf Pack and I was destined to give birth to the most powerful werewolves of our kind to continue the existence of my people. Werewolves still depend on my pack for good breeding and therefore all races worship me and my pack but I don't want to do my obligation. I don't want children. I can't have them. I know the truth now.
"You can't kill the titan wolves, Ave. Who will restart the races after we're gone?" I heard my sister reason with me again. I can't help but roll my eyes at the question. Obviously it's not my problem. Why does she need to ask?
I didn't reply so maybe she got the answer she needed from me.
"Why are you doing this?" I heard her ask me, we were walking into the green forest, sun's down already so the surroundings started to gloom as the night threatened to swallow the sky.
"Without the titans, we can restart again. I'll force the Goddess to do things differently. Sacrifices must be made, the old world must die to let the new world be reborn. This time I want the titans to be reborn, we've been burdened with our oaths since the beginning of time. I intend to end that, but not through me but through all of us." I told her, watching her face turn sour with disapproval of my plans. I know she doesn't like how I run things but I can't tell her I've already found out the truth about my future. It's better I keep this one secret until I hit the grave.
"You're selfish." She cursed me under her breath but I didn't really care. I'm used to her anyways. She always hated me and my ideas.
"Thanks for the compliment." I chuckled, leaving her behind and continued tracking my pack members. They're all well trained so it's challenging for me to hunt them down one by one but the more difficult the better, it'll be a lot more fun for me.
"Avery." I heard my sister call me again. I could sense she's very close behind and I lazily turned around to face her but a thin, cold knife slid through my rib cage reaching up my heart. My sister's eyes were in tears, her hand tightly holding the knife that pierced me. I feel the silver burn, I feel the blood inside me turn cold.
"I'm sorry." She sobbed, biting her lips from trembling.
I couldn't stop myself but found it funny so I smiled.. "You're not." I said, holding her blooded hand around the knife. "You... did exactly what I needed you to do." I pushed myself to say the words although I felt it was so difficult to do while a knife was stuck inside me.
"We will see each other again, moon twin." She said, kissing my cheeks while I waited for my body to turn cold.
Of course we will. We're moon twins. We're forever locked in one destiny.
I fell on my knees, feeling life leave my legs weak and soft. My sister fell on her knees as well, to keep holding me while I still have little consciousness. If I didn't know the truth before this, I might have hated her for doing this to me but I know she's just doing her purpose and following orders. She's the protector of the werewolves while I am the gift of unburdening. We are the mark of the beginning and end.
For now, I survived and got away from the real punishment of this life. Death is much kinder.
"I'll see you soon, moon twin."I whispered in her ear. The memories of my past lives started crashing back to me...
She nodded. She knew what I meant.
With a sure and swift trust, she buried the knife in my heart to end my life. I closed my eyes in satisfaction, my life flashed nothing but darkness.
"See you again after three hundred thousand years, Ave.."I heard my sister's words fade as the darkness completely swallowed me.
I don't feel my lips but I know I smiled at that news. I'll make sure my next life will be different. The world changes every minute, getting more and more exciting every passing time. Just imagining the future makes my blood rush with excitement.
I can't wait to be born again!
In my next visit, I'll make sure every minute of misery will not be wasted. Heaven is such a boring place!
