A shocking truth

1026 Words
Delilah’s POV “Where is that stupid girl? Where is that wench?! Where is she?” Delilah’s distasteful voice echoed throughout the hall. Delilah is Dova’s step aunt but nobody knows this. She hates Dova and her family to the core and accuses them of stealing everything she was supposed to have. She deceitfully planned the death of her brother,Dova’s father and killed all those involved to protect her secret. She has noticed that at every full moon,Dova seems to be fighting herself and she suspects something but she can’t grasp her finger around it. Hence,every full moon,she takes out all her annoyance on Dova just to see her exhausted. Dova’s mother has always been a peaceful person and she lets Delilah do whatever she wants feeling pity for her daughter. “Where is she?!” She stretched out her claws scratching it along her wall promising herself to give Dova new scars of she’s alone like she always is. “Vi-,Vixor. I can’t transform completely. My ears! My claws! She can’t see me like this.” Dova immediately ran into panic state the moment she heard her aunt’s voice. She had transformed when she was talking to Vixor but not completely. “Calm down Dova. Trying to transform back in a frenzy won’t work. We both know that.” Vixor intertwined his fingers into hers. Smiling sheepishly. “Okay.” Dova calms her mind and her claws retract. She opens her eyes to find Vixor staring at her with an amused expression. She touches her ears and realizes it didn’t transform. “Vixor.” She stares at him with a crossed expression,angry at his amused expression. His face becomes serious. Without turning back,she already knows why. “Goo-,good.” Her teeth chattered,hitting theirselves together. “Save the greetings bastard. Why are you here with a male werewolf?” She raised her one of her eyebrows at her niece,happiness settling in. With this,it won’t be a serious problem to get her to grovel on her knees. Even her own mother won’t be able to save her now. She smiled at her evil thoughts. “Um,aunt Delilah, Vixor is my best friend and we,we just came here,he came here to search for me since I’m always alone.” Dova rubbed her shoulders trying her best to stand her ground despite the distasteful glare her aunt was throwing at her. “In other words,you are dating Dova? You are still yet to control your werewolf powers and yet, you want to soil yourself with this filthy thing. Haven’t you done enough to this family? You’re already a point of concern to everyone in the family and you still want to add more problems? If only they had listened to me and killed you when you were young,we wouldn’t have to swim in this mess you always cause.” “Vixor is not a filthy thing. He’s my best friend.” Tears had already gathered in Dova’s eyes thretaenig to fall but she was trying to stay strong. “You dare!” Delilah flung her arms and brought out her claws. “You raise your voice at me over a mere animal?! A man that can’t even fend for you. You really are worse than your mother, you two never cease to amaze me!” She grabbed Dova lifting her up till her feet was dangling in air struggling for air. Dova extended her claws with her tears and scratched at any part of Delilah’s body she could find so she could breathe. “It’s high time I end you and I will end you in front of everyone. Let’s see how your mother lives without you.” Sje dropped Dova to the ground. Not batting an eyelid at Dova’s attempt to regain breathing normally,she grabs her with her extended claws intentionally burying her claws into Dova. “Arrgggghhhhhhh!!” Dova screamed unable to take it any longer. She tried to pull herself out of her Aunty’s grip but she couldn’t. She had already exhausted all her energy in trying to fight with the effect of the full moon. “Look at her!” She dropped Dova on the last stairs intentionally. Dova raise her head and blood flows down her face. The celebration immediately comes to a sudden halt with everyone fixing their gazes on Delilah and Dova. Dova is a mess,they are claw marks around her neck,her hair is disheveled and blood is flowing down her face. “Delilah,what nonsense is this?! How could you do this? She’s just a child! No matter what she did to you,couldn’t you restrain yourself and punish her later. What sort of thing is this?” Dova’s mother was staring at Delilah with so much annoyance and hatred in her eyes. “I haven’t even punished her enough. This stupid girl was just about to ruin our family’s name after all the damages she has metted out to the family already.” She stared at all of the elders and all of them bowed their heads. “That’s enough.” Dova’s mother was fed up to her limit at this point. And every time she stared at her daughter,the blood flowed down Dova’s face only fueled her anger even more. “You,a mere stranger that we barely managed to accommodate in the name of marriage now dare to threaten me? Have you forgotten Susanne? Just who you really are? Do you need me to remind you where you came from?” She stared at Susanne enjoying the turnout of events. Susanne stared at her with so much anger,if they were not in public,she would have carried out actions that were already playing in her mind. “Delilah,Dova is bleeding profusely and her eyes are starting to grow dim. Let her rest. We will come back to this. Susanne,send your daughter to the family clinic. Delilah.” The eldest of the clan signaled Delilah to follow him. “You shouldn’t have let her go. I had her just within my fingertips now.” “And let her blood be on your hands? Take this. Go to Serpa of the Silver clan.”
