Destiny is Calling

Chapter 5

Alicia's POV

My father didn't care that my mate had died he didn't care at all. He still was the cruel bully I knew and hated.

I'm in the forest after my father had shamed me in front of all those people. I heard the bells ring and the crows caw. I started to run, I ran as fast as I could to escape the danger that was coming. The furies, their formal name is the eternal punishers and they are cruel and unforgiving. They were here for me. I run and run and run, as fast as I could.

I look back and see them and they are terrifying. They have claws the length of your middle finger and they wore black cloaks with the hoods up. There backs are hunched and they seem to drift.

Picture of my life when my mate was alive flashed through my head. Like the time we were smiling and having a food fight and my stepfather would come in and we'd run away from him. Or the time when we were swimming and a shark came and we started wrestling with it. I remember when my mum was still alive and she would take us out everywhere. I grew up with Alex not realising he was my ,ate until I was sixteen a year after my mum died. He was so kind and considerate.

The black dress I was wearing was starting to get large tears in it but it didn't matter.

People may wonder how old I am so I shall tell you about myself. My name is Alicia Aletarad I know retarded last name right. I am 18 years of age and was born 29 July 1783. I am a werewolf and when in wolf form my fur is black. I am stronger than most I have met but I am a rogue. My element of power is fire so I am to worship Hectaren goddess of hate and revenge who has put a curse on me that all who I love die.my weapons category is muscles meaning I mostly use weapons that are big and bulky but I am also very good at using a gun. I have a power animal which happens to be a snake her name is cayantha she is a large python. I may have a curse but I also have a gift. A gift that allows me to sense the dead when they are near.

I stop at a lake a small one and the waves lap at my feet it is dark now and stars watch me form high in the sky. I sense him I sense my mate but he is touched with death, meaning he is a ghost. A sob escapes me how can they be so cruel as to trap him on earth. He appears in front of me and gives me a small smile.

"I love you," he whispers and starts to fade away. I reach out for him trying to stop.

"Stop don't go! Don't leave me!" I plead but it is to late he his gone forever.

I walk back to the house and my stepfather who is standing in the doorway says ,"pack up we're leaving this shithole of a town."

Immediately I go to my room and change into something more comfortable and pack. The dress may be ruined but I will keep it for Alex. I pack up my clothing which mainly consists of skinny jeans, singlets, and leather jackets all in dark colours. I pack my gun and a few other weapons. I pack all that I need and within the hour I'm ready to go.

When I get downstairs with my bag I see my father has already cleared the place.

"Get in the car," he orders me. My wolf growls at that but I do as he says anyway.

And as the car pulls out and starts to drive I wonder what my life will be like in this new town.
