Once Upon a Red Witching Hood

Chapter 6 - Guess (Aiden's POV)

AIDEN' POV

10 months. Rosabelle had found Luke, Melody, and Gabriella. Eric, Jason, and Frank are all in England. I was stupid to have picked Europe as a place for them to be teleported to. So stupid! There are uncountable packs in Europe, yet all I was able to think of those great moments I had with Scarlett there.

Scarlett. I never deserved you Scarlett. I had let them kill you! I vowed to protect you and my whole family! I failed.

I lost the person who had lightened up my way. She aided me in walking down the righteous road. She always used to say

"This road may be long and may be bumpy, but you'll get there eventually."

She also once said when I was running late for work "Arriving safely is much better than hurrying ending up either dead or injured."

The day I finally gave up and finally told her who I am and I'm utterly in love with her she said "The purest heart is the heart that once was the most tainted."

How is it someone so wise, loved, and special be gone with the wind just by it's breeze passing through? Why is it the good people are gone first? Why is the most loved? Why did it have to be her?!

Why did it have to be the love of my life!

*FLASHBACK*

I'm so bored of sitting in this Witching School looking at those weak idiotic witch students. I can't wait for who's going to drain another witch's power.

The strength, power, magic, and feeling of it all gives me a rush.

"Aiden."

"Yes, Father?"

My father, Claud. He's the principle of Witching School.

"What's wrong son? You seem to be down."

"I'm bored and Teresa keeps bugging me every single day since the engagement. Why do I have to marry her again?"

"Power." He whispered those soothing words into my ears. I closed my eyes. The mere thought of having that witches powers is tempting. The marriage is part of the plan. I have to go through it. "You seek power! Right, son?"

"Yes." I said menacingly.

"The you must do anything to your death to get a hold of it."

"Yes, I will."

I turned to face him for I was looking at those weak witches from my large wall sized window.

"I still do want to have fun though. It's very boring here. I'm still young father." I stated my obvious feeling.

"Then why don't you go to the human world? You may find something of you in treat there, but do not break the wolf treaty boy."

I smiled wickidlu. This would be the first time I'd ever gone to the human world alone. I've been waiting for the moment father would let me.
