The Red Wolf's Daughter (Book 3 Part 2: The Making of the Siran)

Chapter 71

Silas hesitated before he slowly nodded, biting the inside of his lip. "So are you saying that you aren't from this timeline?" he asked. "I am sorry for making you repeat it, but if you want my help, then I am going to have to inform them of some things that are true."

"Oh, I do not care if you tell them anything about me," I said and shook my head. "Trust me, there is a lot of stuff that sounds make believe, but it is the actual truth. If some of the places are the same in my timeline, then I can use that to my advantage because I have been just about anywhere, including the palaces with each species if they are still standing."

Fernos grew tense when I said that, but he didn't say a word about it. His whole body was tense, and I could tell that he did not like the idea of me in his palace, especially since it sounded like he hadn't been there for years.

"You have been in all of them?" Silas asked with his eyes wide and filled with shock and amazement, and I nodded in confirmation. "How? Is it because of who your parents are?"

"That is one reason," I said and leaned back in my seat, folding my arms across my chest. "Apparently, there is this thing called a Siran, and I am she." I shrugged and grimaced, pressing my lips into a thin line. "I do not have any information to give you on what the Siran can or can't do, so I am not going to explain it in full detail until I know the truth."

"So are you more powerful than your parents, or are you the same as them?" Silas asked. "And are you sure that you want me to tell this to them? They might try to capture you as well and turn you into a weapon against everyone that you care about."

"I don't think that they can," I said and shook my head. "They are going to try and try with all of their might, but I don't think they will be able to succeed. They're not just trying to turn the Red Wolf evil, but I think they are trying to raise a Demon God from whatever slumber he has been put under."

"What?" Fernos asked, growing shocked and protective of Caroline, and I couldn't help but nod in confirmation. "Do you know which Demon God they are trying to raise, or are you just saying that because I am right here?"

"I do know who they are trying to raise," I said and leaned back in my seat while I folded my arms across my chest. "I have also met him, well a shadow version of him, before coming here because I had to get two people out from underneath his control and then protect my sister from falling into the same trap."

"How did you do that?" Fernos asked. "There is no way th-"

"I have a necklace that helped me with it," I said, interrupting Fernos. "I also have a lot of... markings on my skin from different species to protect me from a lot of things and to help me with my powers and everything like that." I shrugged and grimaced, pressing my lips into a thin line. "The you in my timeline was the last one to do a symbol or something on my skin. I do not know what it is because I haven't had the chance to look at it."

"Where are your markings?" Silas asked while he looked at my body to make sure he wasn't missing anything. "I do not see anything, and I do not know if it is because of the jacket that you are currently wearing or if there is some sort of trick that makes them appear or disappear from view."

"That is the basic answer," I said and shrugged. "I have them on my skin and there is a trick to make them disappear or to appear when I need them. Sometimes I can control what appears or disappears while other times I can't, especially when I am in so much danger that I need someone's "help," in rescuing me due to certain events that come my way."

"Can we see one?" Silas asked and started to grow a little excited to see the markings on my skin. "Do you know where the Fernos from your timeline made his mark so that we can look at that one?"

I hesitated and looked at Fernos. "Do you want to see it?" I asked, even though all I wanted to do was see it because I wanted to know what it looked like. "I will only show it if I have your permission to because this one has to deal with you, even though you are not mine and do not share the same bond that both of us have with each other."

"Show us a different one, and I will think about letting him see the one you are talking about," Fernos said coldly. He pursed his lips in annoyance and narrowed his eyes, and I could tell that he did not like the idea of me having a mark from his other half.

I held back an eye roll but sighed. "Ok," I said and pulled my jacket off to reveal my bare arms. "So, this one is a symbol from my grandmother, and it basically lets me go to her castle without having a... "friend" to come with me and make sure that I am safe. It also helps me make friends with a certain species, especially because of the placement of it."

"And what marking is that?" Fernos asked and narrowed his eyes while he scowled. "Which species are you talking about because it seems to me that you are talking about one specific species, correct?"

"That is correct," I said and nodded. "I am talking about the Faes, which is the one that you are thinking about as well, Fernos. It helps that my best friend is a Fae and that my twin brother is her mate." I held out my arms and took a deep breath before I released it with a shaky whoosh.

I closed my eyes and thought about the markings on my wrists that were Fae related, even though I knew that there was a risk of a Fae finding out about the mark and wanting to know how and when I got it because it was that special and rare for other species to get it.

Hopefully, I could find a way to get one of them to find me if I showed them this one, I thought, biting the inside of my lip silently debating if I wanted to show them that mark. Or at least a trail that I could follow until I get to a secret entrance of their kingdom.

My skin started to glow when I thought about the marking that I wanted to appear on my wrists, which symbolized me as an adopted child to the Faes, even though I was a Werewolf and didn't have any "family ties" to the people who had done it, even though it turned out that my twin was mated to the princess and the prince had liked me in that way until he found his mate, which had turned out to be a guy.

Oh, Goddess, please let them be together in this timeline, I thought while I bit the inside of my lip. I have no idea what I would do if the White Tongue Pack is the same as the one in my timeline where my sister could be dead or turned into someone that I didn't know or recognize.

I opened my eyes when I heard a whistle from Silas, and I knew that it meant the mark was visible. I looked at the mark to see that it was glowing white and gold, which was normal for it before I looked at both of them. "Ya, that is just one of the markings that I have on my body from them," I said and turned my wrists over so they could see that they covered the whole wrist. "The markings basically say that I am a child of the Faes, even though I am a Werewolf. Both the queen and king had to agree on the same mark, which is why it is white and gold. It's my ticket to go to their palace without anyone being with me."

"And the me there would allow it?" Fernos asked and raised an eyebrow in question, and a scowl appeared on his face. "If I am so protective of you, then why are you allowed there? I wouldn't allow you to go."

"Because you know that I can't be stopped and have to do it. I am their Siran, too, and the only reason I am the Siran is because I am tied to each of the species in one shape or form. I do not know what that means, but I do know that is the reason as to why I am one and not someone else."

"Could it explain as to why you are here now?" Silas asked, and I nodded. "You're here to correct the wrongs of this group before you are able to help your group out, right?" he asked.

"I think so," I replied while I looked at my wrists, letting the markings die down until they were no more. "However, I do not know how much help I am able to do because I am still in the learning stages of being the Siran, but I'll be damned if someone hurts the Red Wolf under my care and watch. I'd risk my own neck for her no matter what the cost is."

Even if it meant giving up my own life or freedom to make sure that she stayed safe and alive, so Goddess please protect us both because I have a family that I want to get back to and save from the grasp of this Demon God that thinks he can control the people I care about without any repercussions coming his way, for once I know how to control my powers, I will be coming in hot like the fire that flows through my veins every single day that I live and breathe.
