THE CURSED QUEEN

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO

CHAPTER THIRTY - TWO

No, no, no, this can't be happening.

“Why are you doing this?” I whisper, tears rolling down my cheeks.

I hate this.

I hate how weak I am.

I hate that I can't do anything.

I hate that my loved ones are in danger because of me.

Because of me!!!!

I hate myself. I hate these stupid powers. I don't want to be supernatural.

“Oh don't cry just yet Melanie” he smirks. I want to rip that smirk off his face, and make him pay for the pain he is causing me.

“Time to cry is yet to come” his eyes shine bright green.

“Melanie, are you home?” Julie's voice rings as he walks upstairs. The sound of his foot is heavy and loud.

I slump to the floor in pain, my heart aches. It's all my fault. They are going to die because of me.

“Hey, are you okay?” Julie asks, patting my back slowly. I look up but the white devil is no longer present, how did he leave so fast?

“Mel?” Julie calls.

I shake my head, and start crying all over again. He is going to die, mom is going to die. They didn't ask for this. All they did was to bring me up regardless that I am not theirs, and now they may die for that.

I guess I should tell him because my heart can't bear it anymore.

“Julie–” my voice cracks a bit. I don't know where to even start from.

“Just breathe Mel, everything is going to be okay” he sits beside me, wrapping his arms around me. I hug him back tightly, this is just what I need right now.

“Julie, I am not human” I blurted out. There, I said it.

He releases me from his arm, staring at my face and urges me to continue without saying a word.

“I am a wolf and lion and vampire” I say, watching his reaction “Oh yes, I am a jaguar too with a tiger. Oh, a chameleon too” I rambled on very nervously.

I wiped my sweaty palm on my clothes not daring to look him in the eye, scared of what I would see.

“You see, on my eighteenth birthday, I found out that I am supernatural. When Bion told me, I couldn't believe it at first until I almost killed Bion's friend by drinking his blood. That's when it dawned on me” I rambled on and on telling him everything that has happened since the day I clocked eighteen.

He never interrupted me for once, he listened to everything that I had to say in silence.

“Well, that's about it. I am so sorry I didn't tell you sooner. I just felt I had to keep it a secret, and now there's an assassin that wants to kill you guys. I am so sorry Julie” I cry out, tears refusing to stop flowing like a river.

“We have not entirely been truthful to you Melanie” Julie sighs, my brows twist in confusion.

“Come out mom, I could smell you since you stood there” he mumbles, mom walks into the room with an apologetic expression on her face.

“Baby, I am so sorry” she apologies.

I am very confused. They knew about this?

“What's going on guys?” I ask, deciding to listen first before freaking out.
