Gianna
Two days have gone by like I decades. Maybe because I was counting and anticipating for the full moon. The house went low. No troubles. Or any sort of noise from Selena. Except yesterday when she almost got into a fight with Vanessa. Maria was right. The two will definitely fight. Thank God Lady Hera was able to stop them when she overhead their argument. But then Vanessa got more insult from Lady Hera than Selena.Before leaving the secluded place, they have warned me not to come back again. But then, what the woman said isn't making me calm. I will not sit by unless I find out something. That was why I planned to go there again. Since the gates opens on the full moon, I will take advantage of that. I finished off my work as early as I can. Maria and Vanessa will take over the cooking for the day. So I have enough time to prepare how to sneak out of the house. Without anyone knowing.I was on my way out when I bumped into Maria. “I was on my way to meet you. Lady Hera wants to speak to us. I know what it is about. I'm so excited” I couldn't help but raised my brows at her outburst.The rest of the girl were already gathered there as Lady Hera was seated on one of the sofas. “We’re here Lady Hera” Maria announced.“As you all know, today the full moon will appears. So each and everyone will be present at the town hall and display their talents from there the moon goddess will choose who will be the best fit to get rank up”I heard the girls grinning by my side. It's something good. To get more privilege that the rank you were before. Yet, my mind wasn't at that particular event. How to go about leaving if what I've been thinking of.“I wish you all the best. You should start preparing. You have less than two hours left. The festival is starting 8pm”“Thank you Lady Hera” Maria dragged me away to the room.“I’m so excited. I can't wait for th festival. What skill do you intend to display there?”“I’m not sure. We'll see when we get there. You seem so excited. Is there anything else apart from the moon goddess choosing who to get ranked up?”“Well, there is. You know many people come together. And it happens once. Who knows I might meet my mate this time around”Talking of mate, the thought of that have not cross my mind lately. I don't know if I still have the hope of meeting my mate someday. I forced out a smile. “I hope so”Everybody was busy preparing for the festival. Remaining less than an hour for the event. Lady Hera has already left for the town house with Selena. We were the only ones left to finish off the rest of the work. No dinner today so we're free. Claire and Vanessa left before us. Mrs. Rosa was the last person as she'd be the one to lock the house since everyone will be at the festival. I made sure we were halfway when I stopped. “Can you go ahead. I forgot something”“Alright. Be fast. You don't want to miss anything from the event” I offered out a smile. “If I do you will explain everything to me”I watched her disappear toward the next path before I sauntered away straight to the gate path. Just like I did last time, I pushed the gate slowly and it opens. Without any need of waiting for the clock to strikes. Or maybe the full moon has appeared already. I look up the sky finding no sight of moon. That means there's still time before it arrives.I felt proud at my bravenss. Even after the warning from Mrs. Marissa, Maria and them, I still went ahead breaking the rules. Great Gianna. I walk towards the same path Vito dragged me and found myself in front of the big house. “You’re here again Gianna” I muffled patting my shoulder.Wait, I should be looking for the woman instead. I have no business with them. But how do I start looking for her when I don't know where she lives. I have no idea if there are houses around apart from the one in front of me.“Yes. The first thing I should do is to look for her. She has all the answers to my question”“You’re here again” I literally flinch at her voice. My heart raced as I turned around and my gaze landed on her. “I was almost out of it for a minute”“Why are you here again. I thought I told you not to come back” She said marching forward with her crooked stick.My eyes darted left to right. “Let’s say my curiosity led me here. Knowing I can find the truth about my parents” I answered honestly.“I don't think anyone has told you this before. You're quite stubborn” She walk past me towards the entrance door. I followed suit.“I am not. But hearing about my parents somehow made me want to try out the stubbornness”“It will put you in danger” The entrance door was pulled open and Vito face surfaces.“You?” His eyes widened. While I grinned in return. I was about to stepped in after her when he blocked my way. “Let her in Vito. The girl is already here anyway. She can't leave until the full moon disappears”Great. Before then I would possibly get something from her.I passed him a look as I entered inside. I didn't miss the scoff that resonate from him in return. “Master Valen it's time” She announced. Our gaze landed on each other. Surprise was dancing on his face.“What is she doing here again? I thought I've made it clear last night”“Well, I don't think I've heard you correctly. This time around I'm here for a purpose. Not for you but for myself” I uttered with a light grin.GiannaA thick silence fell in the room as the woman chants her words of sorcery. All the while he kept advancing small glares to my way. I didn't miss how his jaw was clenching and unclenching. The woman kept on with what she was doing for more than five minutes before she later unwind her eyes. "Are you ready master Valen?" She asked her gaze landing on him. "You know I am. I hope there won't be any problem like you said last time. I need to reach there before my father take the wrong decision" He sat up. That was when I noticed he wasn't wearing that robe. He was dressed into a normal outfit. I wouldn't deny he looked better in them. "There won't be. The full moon will appear in fifteen minutes. I suggest we wait at the gate. You know it doesn't stay for long""Let's go then" And we all proceed to move out of the house. Valen stop turning to me. "Where are you going?" He asked accessing me from head to toe. "To the gates. Why?" I asked my brows furrowing. "If you follow us to
ValenI reckon over what transpire some hours ago. No matter how hard I tried, I can't seem to put the bits together. I was close to stepping out of Mont Givana gate. Very close. Yet, I couldn't. I felt it. How my wolf growl for the first since I was exile. I felt my body almost taking charge of it. However, such didn't happen. Instead, the omega girl worsen the situation. She fell unconscious. I knew she'd be a handful the very first time she entered through the gates. I'm not the type that give second chance but something about her piqued my interest. Possibly because we met at the lake view the last time I wandered around. I was able to recognize her through her voice. Things must've been better for her. I think. The door sounded followed by the presence of Vito. I could hear his heavy breath. As if he ran a marathon. “Master. The girl has regain consciousness” He said. And I sat up and walked out. I need no hindering secret. Adelaide will have answers to what was going on. Becaus
GiannaThe sound of spoon fisting against each other mixed with my thought was the only thing I was doing at the moment. Different scenario were coming in my head. What will happen to me now? Will I be able to get back to the pack? What will they think if they come to know I'm missing? Will they look for me? Will they have the thought of maybe I went through the gates?It came ringing in my head over and over again. I couldn't concentrate. I was only putting the food in my mouth without paying attention to it. Valen was silent too. Maybe lost in his own world. What could be my connection with the gate? Why was I able to get pass the gate before the full moon and couldn't get pass it after the full moon? Everything just seem mixed up. An exaggerated groan left my lips. “If you're not going to focus on what you're eating you can kindly keep it aside. We don't waste food here” A scoff left my lips. What is he trying to say? Can't he see I'm in some kind of situation. If he wants me out
ValenSomething is wrong somewhere. I couldn't do away with the suspicious in me. Somehow my instinct is telling me she's not just here to find out about her parents. She might be here for other purposes. The voice of the female reporter echo through the room. Images of my father all over the internet. He has taken over the business. The business that will be a threat to him in the future. How easily it was to tame him. Thinking he got a big deal. I have no power to help me. He has already discarded me from his life. The event still fresh in my head. The look in his eyes when he announced that I will be leaving the Fort Stone pack. He cut all ties with me. Same goes to my mother. Everything happened before her. Yet, she didn't do anything. They didn't trust their son. They believe the myth of the sorcerer. "Master" My attention was diverted by the voice of Vito. I raised up my brows indicating him to go on. "The girl went up to the gates again" Seriously, she's that stubborn? I do
GiannaNo way in hell I will sit by. I can not wait for the two days. I will keep trying. I might be lucky the gates will open. The surrounding was quite giving me that bad vibes. It look more scary now that I have a close look at it. If someone is to murder me, no one will know about it. No soul could be seen how would I be murdered. I laugh at my silly joke. The big gate stood in front of me. The barrier against the outside world. “Let’s try it Gianna” I muffled out omitting out a short breath and proceed forward. My body went weak when the gate didn't make a move. I tried and tried with no progress. I angrily kicked the gate with my foot only to let out a hiss in return when I felt a pain on my ankle. “All your effort will be of no use” A voice said from behind me. His tall frame was almost hovering over mine. The sword was situated on his hands as if there were meant to be there. “Its good to try the impossible” I answered turning my focus back to the gate. If I don't try, how
GiannaMy palms were wrapped around the mug as I take in the warmth from it. Adelaide eyes were fixated on me for more than a minute. I wonder what she was looking at or what she was trying to understand in me. After all she's a sorcerer. “Em.. I-” I tried to think of what to say to get her attention. “Did you see anything?” I commenced. Last time she talked about my destiny maybe she's trying to read something through my eyes again. “Knowing about your parents won't make any difference to the situation you are in. But seeing your stubbornness and the extra miles you went to coming here, I will tell you a bit about them. But-” She stopped making me to stare at her in curiosity. “You won’t ask any more question if I tell you or much to say try to dig more into it” “I will not Ma’am” I said not sure whether I will do that. I just want to know about them. “Before I tell you, I want you to know that Master Valen doesn't like it when people talk about his curse” But why is that? Some
ValenSpeechless was the only thing that overpower my body when Cindy broke the news to me. I don't know what the girl wants. What kind of a person is she? Not long ago Vito carried her back which she claimed he touched her without her consent. I thought the stunt I pulled earlier will work. I guess I have to show more of me to her. Maybe she'd behave. I was still on that thought when the front door sounded followed by her footsteps. “You’re here?” She said her voice coming out surprised.“Yes. Does that disturb you?” I said equally back. She marched her way towards me. “I think we might be lucky soon. Adelaide said there's a chance the gates might open” She sounded too excited to my liking. “That’s good” I answered shortly. I thought she'd take my silence and leave. However, she didn't make a move instead said something that boiled my inside with anger. “Perhaps your curse has to do with the gates. It-” She didn't get to complete her statement when I jolted up and grabbed her arms
GiannaThe plan was to apologize and get it over with. For my action. I didn't expect it to turn to something meaningful. Valen and I had quite a normal conversation. Without me pissing him off or him ranting on top of my head. We converse like friends. When we're not one. Although our discussion didn't go that deep. Like talking about our personal stuffs. Weird we only talked about our hobbies. How can someone eat plain boiled potatoes everyday? Like every blessed morning. He doesn't have any specialty. As far as he'd eat and quench his hunger he's okay with. And he told me about his favorite colour which is black. It wasn't surprising to me. Men with their taste in black. I didn't hide away my smile when he complimented my food. Too bad he won't be tasting it again. As soon as the gate opens, I would leave with no return. We’re awaiting Adelaide’s feedback by midnight we’d know the situation. I pray things will work out well. I don't know what situation it is back at the Alpha’s h
