Prophecy Of Doom

Chapter 14:



The next day in Amara’s room

Damon: “Amara!!”

Amara: “Good morning Drako. You didn’t have to stay the night, I was fine.”

Damon: “I told you to avoid going into the forest at night. Do you realize what could’ve happened if Diavolo hadn’t found you on time? There are wild animals out there. How did you faint? How’s it possible that you lost consciousness? You can’t possibly lose consciousness, I mean you’re immune to anesthetics even. And let’s not forget about your drug experiments.”

Amara: “Take a deep breath, brother. Yes, I thought I couldn’t lose consciousness since I’ve tried everything to get high but nothing worked. My pain threshold is also different from that of a normal human being. Despite being badly injured I never pass out but I’ve been feeling dizzy for the past few days and I fainted last night. It’s not because there are some health issues going on with me or I was in pain or anything. Ask Karl, he’ll give you the details. Karl?”

Karl: “I keep track of your health. Your blood pressure, heartbeat, blood sugar level literally everything. I couldn’t find any reason why she’s been feeling dizzy for the past few days. Everything is normal and should be even better as she seems to be sleeping properly since she came to this new place and by normal I mean Amara kind of normal.”

Amara: “See, nothing’s wrong with me. There’s no problem with me at all and I’m healthier than the healthiest man on earth. Sometimes I feel like I’m sort of immortal.”

Damon: “Don’t you dare test this newfound theory of yours ever.”

Amara: “I’m just kidding. Getting back to your question, I have no idea why I fainted. You know, there’s something strange going on with me after the night of the gathering.”

Damon: “What do you mean?”

Amara: “I’m having weird dreams and last night I heard a voice in my dream. It was saying something about me and some kind of task that I needed to fulfill. It was weird.”

In Damon’s head: Oh fuck. What I dreaded most has come true.

Amara: “Drako!! Drako?!”

Damon: “Yeah…yeah. Sorry, I kind of zoned out. I was thinking about those nights when you were recuperating from your injuries from the car accident. That was dreadful.”

Amara: “Don’t worry, I’m fine and these are just nightmares, they’ll go away. Come on, I’m the one having nightmares but you’re more concerned than I am. Forget about it, they’re just weird dreams, nothing else. (later in the garden)”

Aria: “I heard Silvia apologized to you.”

Amara: “More like pretended to apologize..”

Aria: “She never changes.”

Amara: “What did she do to you?”

Aria: “What?”

Amara: “You’re clearly not fond of her and you didn’t try to defend her in front of me.”

Aria: “We used to be best friends back in childhood, Silvia, Walter, and my brother but she changed but not for the good, she started treating me like shit and when I found out Walter was my mate I mean soulmate, we fell in love instantly but she tried to create misunderstandings between us and we almost broke up because of her.”

In Aria’s head: I mean we almost rejected each other.

Amara: “I didn’t expect that. Walter is her brother, why would she do that to him?”

Aria: “No one knows but I didn’t forgive her after that.”

Amara: “I see.”

Aria: “Do you think I should try to talk things out with her?”

Amara: “I know what you wanna hear but one thing you should know about me is that I’m bad at forgiving people, I don’t have a big heart or am I a saint. I was ready to snap her neck for calling me Diavolo’s slut and you’re asking me if I’d forgive her if she tried to create misunderstandings between me and my soulmate…hell no. If you ask me I would say she didn’t even regret what she did to you. Did she apologize to you and I mean a genuine apology and not a fake one?”

Aria: “No.”

Amara: “If you wanna forgive her then do it. If you don’t want to, then don’t.”

Aria: “You know what? She didn’t work for my forgiveness so I’m not gonna forgive her.”

Amara: “Fair enough.”

Aria: “You know, I wanted to thank you.”

Amara: “For what?”

Aria: “For everything you’re doing for Rico. He looks happier and more normal. I mean, he was a little different from other kids and he used to be upset about it but now he’s always so happy and energetic and playful. It makes my heart happy and you’re the reason for all these changes that we’re seeing in him.”

Amara: “Don’t embarrass me, I’m not doing anything extraordinary here and he’s a quick learner if you ask me. He’s a sharp-minded kid and it’s working because he trusts me, I don’t know why though and being different is a blessing. I’m just teaching him to be proud of it.”

Aria: “He adores you so much and you’re really good with kids, of course he would trust you. Tell me something about you, I mean I still feel like I know nothing about you. Like what do you want from your life?”

In Amara’s head: Why is everybody asking me about my life? First that dream now Aria.

Amara: “It’s a complicated question you know? It kept changing with time. When I was a child I wanted to be loved by my parents. When I was a teen I wanted to be loved and fall in love but things didn’t work out how I wanted them too. When I turned seventeen I was like fuck love I don’t want it and I realized there’s something more important than love I want and that’s peace. As a result of growing up in a chaotic environment, mental peace became my top priority. So yeah, I just want peace.”

Aria: “Wow. Well, I also didn’t get to spend much time with my parents. I was only seven when they were murdered but I would do anything to spend some time with him again.”

In Amara’s head: Murdered?

Aria: “I also wanted to find my soulmate and I was lucky to find him in my best friend.”

Amara: “Oh he’s lucky to have you. Have you seen yourself, sexy mama? No like really, no one would believe it if you tell them you’re married and you have a four-year-old kid. That makes me wonder, at what age did you get married?”

Aria: “I got married at twenty one like two years ago but I had Rico at twenty.”

Amara: “Wow. I believe a relationship should be 50/50. You know like, you give me your last name, I scream your first.”

Aria: “Is there nothing else? People wanna be successful, rich and everything.”

Amara: “I’ve already accomplished way more than I expected.”

Aria: “And you don’t believe in love anymore?”

Amara: “I don’t. I don’t think about it anymore. (Ryan’s office)”

Ryan: “So Gregory admitted that he had sent those weapons to one of my enemies?”

Damon: “Yes and I gave him a piece of my mind. He tried to threaten me and he was saying something about a new friend he made who’s fond of beautiful things and also breaks it. He was talking about Amara and then I lost it.”

Ryan: “What the fuck did he say about Amara?”

Damon: “He threatened me, that’s what he does. He said that he’ll tell his friend about Amara. I agreed to make those weapons because he threatened me that time as well but I called the deal off and I told him I’m not gonna supply him with any more weapons. Why do I have a feeling that you know who he was talking about?”

Ryan: “He was talking about The Legion. He supplied those weapons to The Legion and one of the chamber members hired people to attack me.”

Damon: “The Legion? Who are they? Why have I never heard of them?”

Ryan: “Because you’re not a part of my world. Everyone in our world knows about them. These are the people who perpetrate the most heinous crimes in our world. Not just our world but the human world as well. they’re behind the disappearance of women across many cities. They conduct their human trafficking business in many areas. Legion is led by a group of five people called The Chamber. They’re the ones who killed my parents right in front of me, they’re my biggest enemies.”

Damon: “If they’re your biggest enemies and they’re the ones who killed their parents then how are they still alive?”

Ryan: “My hands are tied. When I turned fourteen I went there on a killing spree. I would’ve killed them that day but they played dirty. They managed to kidnap Aria and made me sign an agreement and for the sake of my sister and my pack safety I had to sign it. According to the agreement they won’t harm any of the pack members and won’t step on my territory, they won’t kidnap any women in this area and in return I wouldn’t interfere in their business outside of my territory.”

Damon: “They attacked you means they broke the agreement.”

Ryan: “Yes, but they hired someone else to do it. They never do their dirty work by themselves and I still have a pack and family to look after. No matter how much I want to spill their blood, my hands are tied. If I start a war then I’m gonna lose a lot of my people and I’m not ready for that. If they’re keen on starting a war we’ll fight and as long as I’m alive no one can harm Amara.”

Damon: “I know that because I know my sister. She can take care of herself, I know.”

In Ryan’s head: I don’t think you understand, Damon but I can’t tell you the details or else you’ll start panicking and try to take Amara away from here and I can’t let that happen, not until I make sure that The Chamber doesn’t and wouldn’t know about her. She’s safe here for now.

Ryan: “When are you supplying us with those weapons? We have to be prepared.”

Damon: “About that, I’m not making any more of those weapons. There was a consignment ready for that piece of shit which I delayed on purpose. You can have that. The first consignment that I had sent him had 2,500 guns but the second consignment has around 5,000.”

Ryan: “That would be enough for now but if the war breaks out I’ll need more.”

Damon: “In that case, I pray it never happens. (two hours later outside the mansion)”

Amara: “So what do you think?”

In Luca’s head: I’m in love…just look at this masterpiece, Vico.

Luca’s Wolf: “You never compliment me like that. I’m beautiful. I have style and class.”

In Luca’s head: What style are you talking about? You’re literally naked, you have fur but you’re still naked and don’t be jealous Vico. It’s super sexy and fast.

Luca’s Wolf: “I’m faster than this trash.”

In Luca’s head: You don’t see what I see now wipe that awful expression off your face and let me have my damn moment.

Amara: “Dude, are you okay? Are you having an epilepsy attack or something? You literally changed your expression sixty times a minute.”

In Luca’s head: Vico it’s your fault. Alpha forbids us to talk to our wolf and her presence.

Luca: “Let me enjoy myself!!”

Amara: “Okay, okay. You wanna test it or not?”

Luca: “Yes!! (Ryan and Damon watching Amara and Luca from the window)”

Ryan: “Must have cost you a fortune.”

Damon: “What? Why would it cost me anything?”

Ryan: “Didn’t you pay for the car?”

Damon: “You’re funny. Why would I pay for that car? Amara paid for it.”

Ryan: “What?”

Damon: “Wait a minute…are you thinking I pay her bills? Like I’m rich that’s why she’s pretending to be my sister because it’s getting her bills paid?”

Ryan: “I mean…”

Damon: “That’s hilarious. The best joke I’ve ever heard. She doesn’t need me or any man to get her bills paid. She’s the rich man here and that car is nothing, you should see her car collection.”

Ryan: “But I’ve never seen her working, like she’s been here for the past few weeks now. She would’ve got fired if she had a job.”

Damon: “She doesn’t work for anyone. She’s the one who fires people.”

Ryan: “What does she do for a living?”

Damon: “Keep guessing. I’m gonna go talk to Nik on that consignment. (back outside)”

Amara: “What? You’re the one who asked me to show you my drifting skills. Don’t worry, I’ll get these changed. Don’t be so dramatic.”

Luca: “Remind me to never give you my car keys again.”

Amara: “Oh come on, I’m not that bad at driving.”

Luca: “That’s the thing, you’re a skilled driver but you’re insane. I’m never gonna let you drive unless I’m done with my life. (later that night on the rooftop)”

Amara: “Hello Diavolo.”

Ryan: “How do you always know about my presence before even looking at me?”

Amara: “Because of your scent.”

Ryan: “My cologne?”

Amara: “Not that artificial scent. I’m talking about your scent.”

Ryan: “My scent?”

In Ryan’s head: Are you sure you’re not a wolf, love?

Amara: “Everyone has a unique scent and that scent tells me a lot about them but I guess I just can’t explain it if you would ask me.”

Ryan: “So I scent tells you about me? What’s it like?”

Amara: “In short…you’re driven, vengeful and dangerous.”

Ryan: “All the people know this.”

Amara: “Yeah but a few of them think it’s just a rumor that they hear but it’s not and there’s a darkness inside of you as well.”

Ryan: “Don’t we all have darkness and a part that we try to hide?”

Amara: “Nah, a few of us don’t bother trying to hide it.”

Ryan: “You think I’m dangerous, so do you fear me?”

Amara: “Do I seem fearful to you?”

In Ryan’s head: Last night Azrael thought you fainted because of him and it kind of made him sad and that reminded me I was here to ask her about last night’s memories.

Ryan: “What were you doing in the forest last night?”

Amara: “Nothing, I was just admiring the view.”

Ryan: “Are you serious? At night in the middle of the forest you are admiring the view without thinking about the wild animals that were on a hunt?”

Amara: “When you put it that way then yeah I didn’t think about the wild animals or getting fainted in the middle of the forest.”

Ryan: “How are you feeling now?”

Amara: “I’m totally fine.”

Ryan: “Do you remember why you fainted? There was a wild animal you saw and got scared?”

Amara: “I don’t know, I have a blurry memory and I don’t know if it was real or a dream.”

In Ryan’s head: I think she doesn’t remember seeing Azrael or she would’ve mentioned it to everyone. very interesting.

Ryan: “What do you do for a living?”

Amara: “What?”

Ryan: “What do you do for a living? I never see you work. How can you afford that car?”

Amara: “Did I ask you what you do for a living, Mr. Accardi?”

Ryan: “ You already know what I do, there’s nothing to hide, everyone knows.”

Amara: “True but what I do isn’t that illegal, don’t worry.”

In Amara’s head: At least not anymore.
