Chapter 135 Revealed curse
Chapter 135: revealed curse
Milo's POV
I was in the now familiar dream that wouldn't stop.
I stood in the blood soaked field that 4th with I Jared and dead bodies
People were all running away from the dark predator that continued to plow and destroy anything it could find.
"You did this," the people running away for their life started screaming and shouting at me when they spotted me. "This is your fault."
"What? No, I didn't…"
“You are the cause of our doom.”
“You brought this on us.” They kept on screaming like heretics, while the fire wolf burned them to ashes.
“It's not me!!! I didn't do anything.” I screamed, my voice changing into that of an angry roar. I was so angry that I saw red.
My features changed and morphed like the first time I shifted,but this time was in an instant. I hardly felt anything until I transformed into the same wolf that was destroying the world.
“No,no ,no”
The giant wolf suddenly stopped killing. The world suddenly started warping around us. But its gaze never left mine. I couldn't differentiate whether it was that of pity or if it was trying to tell me something.
"Remember what you are…” a voice sounded before everything faded around me.
My head felt like someone was hitting it with a sledge hammer over and over again.
I tried to open my eyes, but the light hurt too much anytime I tried to. I had to shut it, slowly opening my ears to let it adjust to the light.
Where was I?
Cold stone pressed against my back. My wrists burned. When I tried to move them, I heard the sound of chains rattling.
"Finally awake, little omega?"
That voice, I knew that voice…
I forced my eyes open. Catherine sat in a chair across from me, filing her nails like she didn't have a care in the world.
"Catherine," I croaked. My throat felt like sandpaper.
"Hello, pet." She smiled that snake smile of hers that was like that of the devil. "Sleep well?"
I tried to sit up, but something held me back or rather a pain that bit back at my skin…
I sucked in a deep breath.
silver chains! Silver chains affect us the same way as wolfbane, but the difference is that wolfbane is much more scarce and lethal to werewolves. The chain that was tying me down was as thick as the arms of a baby. The metal burned my skin every time I tried to move.
“I wouldn't do that if I were you”
"Where am I?" I asked, finally after struggling for 5 minutes to no avail, rather burn marks littered my whole body.
"Somewhere safe. Somewhere far from your precious Alpha." She stood up, walking closer to stand closer to where I was lying. "Somewhere he will never find you."
The memories came flooding back. The attack, Cornelius, Elijah. Being drugged by the dart…
"You are working with them," I said. "With the traitors."
"Traitors?" She laughed. "We're not traitors, little omega. We are the future. The new order that will fix everything your Alpha broke."
"Damon didn't break anything!"
"Didn't he?" She crouched down beside me. "Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a strong pack. The strongest unrighteous pack in the world. Led by a True Alpha who made everyone tremble with fear. just at the sound of his name, alphas shake in fear…”
She traced a finger along the chains. "Then one day, a pathetic little omega suddenly showed up. And suddenly, the great Alpha became a weak soft daddy.”
"That's not…"
"The pack started falling apart," she continued, ignoring me. "Warriors questioned their leader. Enemies saw weakness and attacked. All because of one worthless boy."
Each word stung like a slap to my face. I couldn't look her in the eyes, I looked away.
"You want to know the funny part?" She leaned closer. "None of this would have happened if you had just stayed in your place. If you had just accepted what you were. Weak. Useless. Nothing."
"I am not nothing," I whispered.
"No?" She laughed. "Then why are you here? Chained up like an animal? Unable to save yourself?"
I didn't have an answer for that.
Because you're dangerous," Catherine answered for me. "More dangerous than you know."
"I am Milo…"
"Stop." She held up her hand. "We both know that's a lie. You're not just an ordinary omega. You are a mystery."
"I don't know what you are talking about."
"Don't you?" She leaned forward. "The fiery red wolf. The healing blood. The way you fought Selene won."
Selene… Damon's sister.
"Where is she?" I asked.
"Busy. Taking over the pack. Being the leader Damon never could be and it's your fault."
"My fault?..."
"Face it, omega. You're a curse. Everything you touch turns to ash. Your own family sold you. Your sister wants you dead. And now, because of you, the entire Mafia Pack will burn."
“My sister would never do that” I snapped at her, finally getting fed up.
“Awww, little omega is becoming protective of his little sister. I guess he kept you in the dark throughout.”
"What do you mean? Who kept me in the dark? Is my family okay? He promised that…"
"The war has started. The Righteous Pack, the Council, everyone is attacking. And without Damon to lead them..." She smiled. "Well, let's just say it won't be pretty."
"No!" I pulled against the chains, ignoring the pain. "You're lying!"
"Am I? Right now, your friends are dying. Warriors who trusted Damon are being slaughtered. All because he was too busy chasing after you to protect them."
Tears burned my eyes. Was she right? Was this really all my fault?
"Oh, don't cry," Catherine said mockingly. "It'll all be over soon. Once the Queen decides what to do with you."
"The Queen?"
"The Council's new leader. She's... special. Almost as powerful as a True Alpha. But no one knows her identity for now.." Catherine stood up. "She will be here tomorrow to see you in person.”
She walked to the door, then stopped.
"You know what the saddest part is? Damon probably doesn't even know you're gone yet. He's too busy with his curse to notice."
"Curse? What curse?"
She looked back at me this time with real pity that made me almost choke on my spit. "Ohh, you didn't know?” She said mockingly, “well let me tell you a secret you never knew. Your Alpha is cursed. Has been for years. Every blood moon, he loses control. Becomes a monster."
My blood went cold,
