Chapter 14: Chapter 14

Liviana’s POV

I stared into the unknown.

I think I’ll lose my mind before this retreat ends.

I managed to make a deal with Howl and made Blake move to another tent with well, 2 wolves which one was from my pack and a human.

Atleast I have an eye looking after Blake.

Now, I’m just the one in trouble.

“Bad mate! Bad Liviana!” Amaris kept scolding me.

She did not like the fact that I agreed on a date with another wolf.

“Mate will be disappointed. Mate will be mad” she continued.

He’ll be furious, that’s for sure.

I sighed.

How did my life become like this?

We’re currently in a bonfire and I’m sitting between Veronica and Karina as they pester me about Blake.

“How long have you known each other?”

“How did you meet?”

“What’s Blake’s ideal type?”

“Does he have a girlfriend?”

It was absolutely annoying.

I hate it the most when new people pry on my personal life.

“I think I have a headache. I need to go back to the tent” I told them. They pouted.

Faith glanced at me.

“You should rest…Livi while we stay here” she said and I gave her an acknowledging nod. She bowed her head.

I made my way to the tent and then switched paths and into the woods.

I badly need time to cool off.

I ran and ran through the woods only stopping when I reach a cliff and an open space revealing the moon.

Tonight is supposed to be the night of the b***d moon.

I sat by a bush and looked up closing me eyes.

Then I was suddenly somewhere else.

Diana stood before me.

“Liviana…” she called me softly.

“Hi” I said. She smiled.

“Do you know why you’re here?” she asked me. I shook my head.

“I have a gift for you” she told me. I c****d my head to the side curiously.

“A gift?” I said. She nodded.

“Yes, a gift” she said.

“Why?” I asked. She gave me a small smile.

“Because you need it” she simply said.

“What could I possibly need?” I said. She motioned me to come.

I carefully approached her before giving me an assuring smile.

She cupped my face and looked into my eyes.

“This will hurt a little” she said and even before I could say anything, everything lit up and I screamed in pain.

It was the same unbearable pain I had felt on the day of my 18th birthday but then…

A series of scenes repeated on my head.

It was a cold night and I can smell the scent of the trees, water and…b***d.

I heard cries. It was clearly from an infant but they were coming from me.

Then I saw Diana.

Her eyes filled with tears, her face full of dirt and her whole appearance disheveled.

“Hush, little one. Mother is here” she said and I felt a hand caress my cheek and the crying stops.

A tear falls from her eye as she smiled at me.

Then I heard rustling and Diana immediately lifted me and ran.

She ran and ran until she finally stops and hide.

She pursed her lips shut and stopped breathing for a moment.

There were footsteps.

Then the sound of flesh being torn apart.

Diana covers her mouth with one of her hands.

“Princess? It’s me. It’s Dimitri” called out a familiar voice.

Diana peeks and sighs in relief.

“Dimitri” she said getting out of her hiding.

“Princess Diana” it’s my father.

He looked way way younger than the last time I had seen him but I know my father when I see him.

“Where’s Kale?” Diana asked my father.

Kale?

My father looks down.

“I’m sorry, Princess but I need to get you and Princess Liviana out of here. It’s the only thing I can do for his Highness now” my father said and Diana’s legs give out but my father holds her.

“We must leave now, Princess” my father said. Diana reluctant nods.

Then a series of howls is heard.

“They’re coming” Diana muttered and looks at my father.

“Take her” she said.

“Take her, Dimitri” she says again.

“Princess, I—“

“We all won’t survive if you don’t take her. The both of us are helpless. She’ll be better off with you” she explains.

“Take her and go back to your pack. Raise her like she’s your own. Please. I beg of you” Diana begged as tears streamed down her face. My father reluctantly nods.

Diana then looks at me.

“Grow beautifully, my child. I love you so much” she said as the last tear escape her eye.

Then I see her shift to a wolf that I’m all too familiar with.

Amaris.

She gives me a last glance with her golden eyes and ran off to the opposite direction.

I gasp awake as my eyes glowed bright gold.

What the hell was that?!

I look up to the moon to see that it has already turned red.

What did that dream mean?

Or is it really a dream?

Then I heard a scream.

Blake.

I quickly got up on my feet and ran as fast as I could in my human form.

Then I saw about 10 rogues surrounding Blake.

My eyes darkened.

I growled loudly and they all turned to look at me.

“L-livi…s-stay back! Run!” Blake shouted and the rogues snarled and growled as I approached them.

Then one rogue made its way to me with its claws aimed at me.

“Livi no!”

The next thing I know there was…

B***d.

“L-livi” Blake muttered as b***d came out his mouth and his hug on me loosened.

My breathing stopped.

“N-no” I said catching Blake in my arms as he fell.

“Blake” my tears started to cloud my vision as he coughed b***d.

“R-r-run” he said before his eyes closed.

No…

I looked up, my eyes glowing bright gold.

The next thing I know, I had shifted to my wolf and started to attack the rogues, tearing them limb from limb.

I was not in control nor was Amaris.

It was pure rage with one goal.

Bloodshed.

Some tried to run but they were tooq slow for me and I quickly killed them without a second to waste.

One dead body came after another.

Until the last remained.

Blake’s murderer.

I lunged at it biting it by its neck and squeezing the life out of it slowly.

Die.

It took its last breath and I ripped its head off its body.

Then I ran back to where Blake is and saw Faith and the other one from my pack who was supposed to look out for Blake.

I growled and snarled at them which made them back away from Blake.

I approached him and whimpered trying to wake him up.

Please.

I’m begging someone please save him.

Please.

“Heal him” I heard Diana’s voice in my head.

“What?” I asked confused.

“Heal him, Liviana” she said.

“How?” I said.

“I gave you my ability. You can do it. Heal him” she insisted.

I shifted back to my human form and Faith immediately came to me wrapping me in some clothing.

I kneeled before Blake and put my hand on his chest where the claws had pierced through.

“Please” I said and my hands lit up my eyes glowed gold once again. I threw my head back and stared at the moon as I felt the energy travel from my body to Blake’s.

It was extremely painful and I felt like my life force was being drained out of my body but I endured it.

Please.

I can’t let Blake die.

He’s family.

The last energy I had in me spurt out and transferred to Blake and I saw how his once pale complexion started to return to its normal color.

Then I saw his eyes falter.

“Blake” I muttered before I fell to the ground.
