Wolf Bond

Frantically I try to hold onto something but nothing comes in contact with my hand as I keep falling down into some bottomless pit.

What the hell is happening? And what is going on?

My heart is hammering against my rib cage so furiously that I am afraid it will stop any moment. Harshly, my back hit the solid ground, or what I can assume as ground as everything around me is pitch black which is making it difficult for me to judge my surroundings.

Werewolves can see in dark, but this darkness is different I can sense spellcasting in the air so it is clear that everything is around me is result of some kind of spell.

Even if spells can’t work on me, but it doesn’t mean that they can’t work around me. So whoever it is, they are smartly using their powers.

I feel I am almost trapped here as I can’t figure where I am, and with the lack of my wolf I feel vulernable.

I wanted to scream, but I know it is no use as no one will be able to hear me. So what I do is try to keep myself calm as I try to figure what to do next.

After trying moving around, which seems like I am walking in some wide space as other then solid ground beneath my feet there is nothing around. It is like I am boxed in a no bar cage, which is even more frustrating as I don’t know the end of this place.

Wiping my tears which leak from my eyes against my will, I chew inside of my cheeks as my mind swirls with so many question whose answer I don’t know. But the question which is overshadowing all the other questions, is why me?

Why me? What did I do?

I just want to live a normal, happy life, with my family and my people. What wrong I did to deserve all this which is happening with me and my family?

The more I try to think the answers of these question, the more angrier I feel. The dark feeling start to consume me as the fury inside me is burning so furiously ready to burn everything to ashes.

The fire needs to be fuelled, my child, and the storm needs to be formed.

A voice rings in my ears... a voice which is gentle yet it holds immense authority.

Suddenly, something starts to build inside my chest, like some sort of fire ball which is getting bigger with the dark feelings which is slowly spreading inside my chest.

The inside of my palms start to tingle with warmth and suddenly a flicker of spark ignites from my fingers startling me.

Don't be afraid, everything is within you. Embrace the darkness and conquer it.

"Who are you?" I ask while looking around still feeling anxious. "And how do you know me?"

"Remember, my child, to heal you need kindness, but to protect you need to be ruthless." The voice continues ignoring my questions, "And they don't deserve your kindness anymore." The anger in the voice is not hard to miss.

"I don't know what to do." I let out a whimper as suddenly I feel this urge to open my heart to this comforting voice, "Whoever wins, but in the end it is me only who loses."

If I end the curse then Donovon will die, and if the curse remains then he will not be able to fight against it for long and even this will lead to his death. I will lose him in one way or the other.

"I don't even know against whom I am fighting." Grabbing my hair, I pull them in frustration whispering to myself.

"You are fire, the fire which can provide warmth but at the same time it has power to burn everything." I hear the words, similar to what my wolf has said to me long time ago.

"Now you have to go back, but remember the power lies within you... you are not vulnerable." A wave of calmness washes over me because of the gentless of the voice, "Trust your heart because it will lead you in the right direction." The voice fades away as I cover my eyes with my arm trying to block the bright white light which encases everything around me including myself.
