Undefeated Luna

18. No longer Fury

Felicity POV:

“Everybody out!” my mother shouted at all the guards in the hall, Margaret who was beside me started to turn around, “not you Maggie, you’re not going anywhere”.

After everyone left my mother walked down the three septs which led to the throne and gave me a hug. I didn’t remember the last time she hugged me it must have been after my first mission when she told me she was proud of me.

“Above everything else, you have to remember your duty” she put her hands on my shoulders and looked at me “when I was a Daughter, the Mother at the time, sent me to deal with a powerful rogue. His name was Damien and he was travelling from pack to pack, in some he would kill the biggest wolf, even if that wolf was the Alpha”. She broke eye contact and let go of me “you see he was an enormous wolf, he wanted to be the most powerful one he was a descendent of Xavier so he had royal blood within him. When I first went on my mission, I didn’t know that. I thought he was a rogue, when I found out who he was I couldn’t complete my mission. I wouldn’t be a Daughter if I was killing Sarah’s and Xavier’s descendants. I didn’t care what Mother said, I wasn’t going to betray Sarah. So, I went to talk to him, it was supposed to be peace talks but he drugged me and chained me up. He didn’t know who the Daughters were and said he wanted to show me his “power”, he wanted his offspring to have my fighting style and his strength” she finally showed some emotion, even if it was anger or maybe sadness I couldn’t tell.

“How did you get out and please mother tell me he is dead!” I said softly.

“Ophelia always knew where to find me and she found me in a warehouse in Chicago, Marcel was a werewolf and he knew Damien’s scent. They rescued me when he wasn’t around but then I found out I was pregnant …. with you”.

“Are you telling me he is still alive? Because if he is, he might have more daughters, Dracula could be after them as well we need to save them…”

“No Fury” she interrupted my ranting “you were his only child, when you were born Margaret made me realise something, you now had Sarah’s blood in you and you weren’t evil, he was a danger to you, that way we had a right to kill him” my mother sounded proud.

“You defended Sarah’s descendent from one of her own” I was putting the puzzle together.

“I’m not going to lie to you when I say, I didn’t take pleasure in killing him”” she poured herself some water and went to sit back down on the throne. “Fury your father is dead and I was the one who killed him”.

“Does anybody know about this?” I asked.

“Only Ophelia’s family and Margaret, but Fury your royal blood is more dominant than the human one”.

“What do you mean more dominant?” I stepped back.

“Fury, you have a wolf inside of you” Margaret finally spoke out. “You were so skilled as a child, you made your mother proud, you never smiled and whenever you were cut or bruised it would disappear straight away, not leaving a scar not even a mark. We knew that the Elders would notice that so we had to used Old Power to hide your wolf. She is asleep inside of you and will only awake when you meet your mate. That is why you would get headaches when you are surrounded by wolves, you were conditioned to hate them, to stay away from them” Margaret confessed.

“You used Old Power on me? That is forbidden” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing, the two people who raised me have lied to me my whole life.

“Only Forbidden under the Elder Law yes, but we followed Sarah’s law, we used Old Power to protect you. If Dracula is in fact after you, you must do everything in your power to hide your wolf, you need to stay here, you cannot go back to the Marble Pack, you could meet your mate and your wolf could show, then there would be no stopping Dracula” my mother said firmly.

“It is too late for that Mother” I held my head high, even though they lied to me my whole life I wasn’t going to lie now.

“What do you mean?” Mother leaned forward.

“The Alpha of the Marble pack has said that I’m his “mate” and my headaches have stopped, but a voice appeared in my head, the woman from my nightmare is also gone”.

“Hold on” my mother held her hand up, trying to collect her thoughts. “HE WOKE YOUR WOLF UP!? All the work, all our efforts over the years all for nothing!”

“Well maybe if you told me the truth it wouldn’t have come to this!”

“Tell me exactly everything that has happened at Marble” my mother was at her wits end.

“I heard her voice and yesterday she shifted, Alpha Kilian said she is nearly as strong as a male one and twice as big as a standard female wolf” now I was the one who was proud. However, I still couldn’t tell my mother about my feelings towards Kilian, I knew I would disappoint her.

“If Dracula has wolves working for him, he is going to find you” Margaret turned to face me “You need to be ready Fury”.

“I am ready”.

“No Fury, you will only come to your power, your full wolf power only if you are marked” she looked guilty. “It was wrong of us to keep this from you, but since he woke your wolf up, you need to mate him. You need to be defeated!”
