Chapter 6: A MIRACLE SILVER WOLF

I didn't help the girl with any ulterior motives. I would have left her there if it wasn't for Black insisting that we save her.

When I came with her to the pack, I wanted her to be nursed back to health and then that would be it. I would have played my part in whatever mess her life was.

So, when I went to check on how she was doing and Black started shouting in my head that she was our mate, I thought he had lost it.

That was why I couldn't look at her because I didn't want Black getting any more ideas that. he already had.

Beautiful? Maybe she was underneath all that gloom.

Maybe after a little washing and good feeding, the beauty would show for she had the features of a beautiful woman.

But I wasn't looking for beautiful. I was looking for the woman in my dreams and she wasn't that.

I have a curse that has followed me for years and the end of another second year since it started was almost here with me and the last thing I need is to be distracted from my mission.

My mission is to find the woman who I always see in my dreams to help me get rid if this damned curse.

I can't wait for the day I will rest without lusting for blood.

It has been two days since I brought her and I see Aurora and that girl walking around the palace and she seems to be getting stronger.

Looking at her, I am kind of confused.

Sometimes she gives the vibes of a weak omega and sometimes she gives the vibes of a beta. And a strong beta at that.

I have never been wrong about a wolf but this one is confusing me.

Or, is she another witch?

Oh, I would kill her without a second thought. Ever since that woman put that curse me, I swore to eliminate any witch I came across.

How come I couldn't clearly tell what kind of a wolf she was?

"Hey? Brother? Come, take a walk with us," Aurora called me.

I guess I was too distracted to hide well from them the way I have been doing for the past two days.

"No. I have pack matters to tend to. You guys go ahead and Aurora, keep me posted," I said and I used a more stern tone than I had intended.

"Oh, okay. Take care," Aurora said as they walk towards the garden.

I know that there are herbs of all kinds in the garden and they would help her heal faster.

The pack doctor supervised the planting of that garden. He said that the smell produced by the herbs alone would help a sick wolf get better faster.

I walked to my room and sat on my bed.

Of late, I can't concentrate on anything.

The blood moon is almost here and I haven't found the girl yet.

I hate killing innocent people and I really don't know what to do.

When all this started, we thought that tying me up with silver and nickel chains would help but it never did.

When the blood moon shone, it would call to the curse no matter where I was hiding. Thus, I had leant better than to hide.

I go far away from any kind of civilization but by the time it's over, I usually find that I have killed some people.

I have no recollection of it. All I know is that my body craves and calls for blood and I go on a killing spree.

I need to find that woman whose back I see in all of my dreams and soonest.

I just wish that I would dream of where to find her. That would make everything this much easier.

I can smell Aurora and that girl going back to my quarters again.

That's another thing that surprised everybody again.

My quarters are preserved for me and my sister only. Even my beta Kira doesn't have permission to come to my wing without asking first.

But that day, I found myself carrying her here without even thinking about what I was doing.

Why? I'm also not sure either.

I also don't know why her smell is so strong and so sweet and whenever we smell her, Black goes on a rampage and it is becoming harder and harder to contain him.

All I have to do is either get out of here or chase her away.

She's now better and I know she can take care of herself.

But whenever I think of sending her away from here, Black goes mad, literally.

He says that he can't believe that I want to chase our mate away.

Buy thinking about it, where does she come from? Why did she want to die?

Or did someone throw her down that cliff? But why?

And what with all the torture?

How could someone keep her with the silver chains until they ate to her bone? And she looked like she was not being fed too.

Anyway, I will go with what Aurora says because she's the one who has been taking care of her.

Something tells me that I will be lucky this time and locate my wolf. My mate. The one who will break this curse and set me free.

I get ready and walk towards Aurora's rooms where the girl is and I find them conversing and laughing.

At least they seem to have gotten closer and for the first time, I see my sister laughing without care.

I was very careful to walk without making a noise and I have masked my scent but the girl notices me first.

She looks up and our gazes meet and Black goes crazy.

"Mate. Mate. Mate. Mark our mate," is all he can say and he makes me start regretting coming here.

I ignore him and go to the point, "Aurora, can I talk to you for a minute?" I say and walk out without even sparing her a glance.

The girl too is ignoring my gaze and I don't mind. It works well for me because it helps in not making the situation more awkward than it already is.

"I am leaving," I tell my sister once we get to the corridor and she looks at me the way she usually does, with a mixture of pity and love in her eyes.

"You are still looking for her? Can't you take a rest first?" She asks and I know it's only because she cares.

"You know I can't. The blood moon is almost here with us and if there is even a half a chance that I might find her, I am willing to take it," I tell her and I know she understands.

"Okay. You take care. And I am always here whenever you need me," she says and hugs me.

"I know. Take care of the pack," I say and start walking away then...

"Aurora, take care and be wary of that girl," I say and walk away quickly before she asks any questions.

I don't want to explain myself.

But I am not worried about anyone hurting my sister. She is a bright wolf and strong. She can hold her own.

Black is angry with me, again. No news there.

He has been doing that a lot lately since I brought that girl home.

I know it's because he wanted me to claim that girl for us but I can't.

I would only be hurting her and I can't.

I don't want to hurt her when the blood moon comes because I am pretty sure that she isn't the woman in my dreams.

If she was, I wouldn't hesitate to claim her.

But he will understand once we find the one.

He will understand when we stop craving blood.

For now, the journey continues.
