Dark destiny

Chapter 9 : The Truth.

Emery's POV.

Once a Wiseman said that The Sun, The Moon and The Truth never hides. I guess that's true, because today I came to know about the greatest truth about me. A truth, big enough to change my as well as many people's life.

I woke up in the morning little light headed. Replaying the flashback of last night made me feel little dizzy. Until I realize it wasn't my room, this place was unknown to me. It clearly looked that it belonged to a rich person because of the decor and colour schemes.

Until,when I tried to get up something held me back. Something hard and cold.

Handcuffs!!!

Seriously handcuffs!!

I tried to look around for something to help me get out of it. I found a note on the table beside my bed which says.....

"Hey Em! It's me don't freak out and don't do something stupid until I'm back. Here's some water to cool you down, with a smiley".

Nate! it was Nate. Did he seriously try to kidnap me  and so clever of him leaving me a glass of water when I'm fucking stuck in this cuffs.

I spend the next 30 mins trying to get out of the cuffs, that suddenly the I  heard the turning of the doorknob. It was Nate but this time he was not the same person I used to know he was different.

"Who are you?" I ask trying to pull myself up.

"Come on Em don't you know me, did you hit your head or something. I'm Nate, your best friend." He said with a smirk.

"I know you are Nate but what are you, you weren't quite a human last night."I ask.

"I know Em last night was not normal. I know you have many questions about me but trust me I mean no harm to you. I would never harm you Em. I had to do it to save you." Nate said coming towards me.

" Seriously Nate, no harm then why these cuffs?" I ask.

"So you don't move out" He says.

"Instead you could have just locked the door you idiot. These cuffs are painful." I say.

"I could have but you are smart enough to unlock it using your hair pins and really sorry for the cuffs." He says while unlocking the cuffs.

He hands me the glass of water from and table and I gulp it within seconds.
Listen Em Nate says."I need you to listen me carefully and most importantly don't freak out okay." I can feel the tension in his eyes.

" Last night whatever I did was just to protect you  from that monster as you call .He was after your life and clearly he wasn't a human just like me. I have powers."
Nate says.

"Powers, what powers, so are you a semi or meta human?" I ask.

"Biologically not."he says.

"Alien?"I ask.

"Gross" he says.

"Ghost?" I ask.

"Awful" he says.

"Vampire?"

"Believe me that's the last thing I wanna be." He says.

"So what are you exactly" I ask frustrated.

" I am a Malcanian. I belong to a supernatural coven called Malcanes. Our coven existed for hundreds of years. We were one of the strongest beings but the wars within us broke us." Nate explains.

"Malcanes then, so exactly what powers do you have and what war?" I ask.

"We are just supernatural beings who looks just like humans but we have supernatural abilities like super strength, better vision and hearing ability, our reflexes are better than humans and did I mention we are good looking too." He says with a naughty face.

"So can you do magical type of stuff like spells or something." I ask

"Yes, I mean some of us who are gifted with that ability can do but not me tho I practiced some basic spells."
All things were just fine in our coven, we were feared by others, but greediness lead to our depletion." He says.

"What do you mean?" I ask him.

"Some people from our coven started practicing dark magic. They gained more power because of that darkness. Soon their number increased and darkness consumed them. They became evil, selfish and dangerous. To increase their power they started murdering the good ones, the hunger increased.
But the action must be taken so leader or ruler of our coven decided to banish them from our coven.
When they were thrown out from our kingdom they started one of their own and became more dangerous and evil.
This war continued for many years generation of kings were fighting against each other. The wrath continued for ages. They started calling themselves as The Dark Malcanes.
And this is the only reason some of them are hunting you and trying to kill you because you can be a threat for them."Nate say.

"Why me, I didn't do anything and I even didn't knew about them?" I question him.

"Not now but later in future you can be threat because of the power you possess.
As I said kings kept on fighting but once the Malcanes was rules by a queen for the first time. She was called as the fearless Margaret. She inherited it from her father. She was the most powerful Malcanian with great amount of magic. Her enemies feared her she was also the greatest shield maiden but the power didn't consume her, she was very kind.
On the other hand the dark Malcanes were ruled by the king Arthur. He belonged to the dark side but wasn't evil as the previous kings. He too inherited it from his father. It was like he belonged to the wrong side. His people even didn't support him much which created problems.
Arthur and Margaret were in love with eachother, they secretly used to meet eachother. They wanted to get married but they weren't allowed to. Margaret was already with a child they were going to leave their kingdom and start a new life but people from both sides had eyes on them, before they could go they both were murdered by their people."Nate says with a worried look on his face.

"How could they do it, how could they kill their own rulers, so cruel of them. They both could have reunited their kingdom." I say

"It's not that simple Em but before Margaret took her last breath she did a spell and magically shifted the baby from her to a perfect human couple named Grace and Thomas Spencer.
She knew that her people could never find that baby between humans."Nate says.

"It's you Em. You are the magical baby" Nate says by holding my hand.

"No its not possible, my mom and dad are my real parents not Margaret and Arthur. I have seen the pictures and birth certificate. It's not true." I say with tears rolling down my cheeks.

"It's good to have two mom and dad Em and biologically you are a Spencer but in real your a hybrid of dark and good Malcanes. I know it will take a lot of time to process it but think Em why would they want to kill you?" Nate says.

"How do you know it's me you can be wrong. Guess you are looking for a wrong person." I say in a low tone.

"They always had an eye for you Em." Nate says.

All that Nate told today was very difficult for me to process. I know he's not lying because it's not in him but seriously how's this possible. This can be major change in my life. Nate says I can be threat to them so why didn't he let me die and talking about powers, do I seriously have powers. Many questions started coming in my mind.

Am I blessed or cursed?
