Curse

16

The wind feels amazing. Being on my motorcycle feels amazing.  It's been so long since I did this. Yes guys as crazy as it sounds, I can ride a motorcycle.

I feel free. This is a great feeling. Right now we are on our way to Border view city which is right next to our pack.

The special someone we were going to visit is a witch, Tessa. Ronnie and her are sisters which makes her my aunt.

A lot of Ronnie's family members are dead but a number are alive. They died from a massacre in 1926. Oh did I forget to mention my parents are really old as in olllllld. Yeah, she stopped counting after she turned 100.

The funny thing is that my parents are regular wolves either. They try hard to make me believe they are but I know. I mean I've noticed the weird shit they can do that regular wolves can't. I guess them being the way they are makes me feel better about being me. I feel like I'm not alone.

Tessa is a very powerful witch who has enough power to create an entire new species but she works closely with the moon. She doesn't work for the Order of the witches and she isn't part of any coven. Sometimes I think they don't even know of her existence.

For as long as I can remember,  she has been casting a protection spell on me. This is to protect me from danger. I've never known why so many precautions have been taken on me and I've never bothered to find out. I thought they were just paranoid. But now I'm very curious seeing as my condition feels like it's getting worse. Plus the whole Sydney thing with people thinking I have special healing powers. Now that's strange.

More pain, more attacks and worst of all, more nightmares. It's like I'm getting more consumed by the darkness. It scares me sometimes. The fact that I don't know what I'm capable of. The fact that I don't know how much damage I can cause. It scares me.

Okay enough with the dark stuff. I wouldn't want to bore anyone with my issues. We arrived there at 6pm.

Her house didn't even qualify as a house. This was a mansion. It was styled in medieval way with the stone walls and two humongous gargoyles at the top of the gate. There were two large doors that led to the inside. Something was written in the ancient language used by sirens to communicate with the moon. It translated to,

"The other side is the stranger side. "

I don't know why it said that but my aunt is crazy.

We got off our bikes and looked around taking in the view. There was a hidden beauty to it.

"Does Ronnie know we are here?" I asked Jack as I placed my black helmet on the bike.

"Yes she does. She wasn't able to make it though. Prior arrangements." He replied.

We walked up to the doors and just as I was about to knock the doors opened. Did I mention this place is creepy and so is Tessa?  Well it is and she is.

We walked in and a huge brown and beige themed lobby was before us. It was empty.  Weird. It always had like chairs and weird antique stuff. In the middle of the lobby was a huge spiral staircase that led to goddess knows where. I tried to explore once but I was caught and let's say the consequences were bad.  No TV for a week. I missed an entire week of project runway.

"Jack? *gasp* Ryan?" Tessa  gasped as she stood on the stairs.  Her grey eyes widened as she took my appearance in. Guess it's been a while huh?!.

Her appearance was a bit odd most would say. Her grey eyes were unusual for a woman with dark skin. She had a neat hourglass figure like mine. Not too much, not too little. Her hair was curly and shoulder length. She had a British accent.
