Chapter 14

Hello readers! I hope you are all doing super well! Apologies for not updating as work has been super busy for me, I have had to deal with my visa application (still ongoing!) and I also started my drug treatment to address my ongoing inflammation problems. I have been experiencing a lot of side effects from this drug I am on and I am also learning how to adapt given the new changes. So there are lots of things happening right now :( Due to the drug I take, I am more fatigued than ever, which generally means I sleep early and also nap during the day. I got headaches all day and lost my voice a few times too! My body is slowly adapting to the drug but it won't be long until they up my dosage to double to what I am on now and, most likely ,it will just be another repeat of what I am experiencing.
I am hoping to write some additional chapters in the meantime before my drug dose increases. So I would like to thank you all for being patient with me!
Mia POV
We were in our motel room when Chase came back. We needed to find a witch that would be able to hide our scents for now. That was when I heard a voice in my head. “We can do it.” I looked around the room to see who was talking to me, but there was no-one else apart from myself, Lucy and Chase. “We can do it.” The voice echoed in my head again. This time I responded, “who’s there?” I received no response back and it was just silence. I looked around the room and just asked Chase and Lucy if they had heard anything. They both looked at me and said no they had not heard anything.
This was when Chase said that we had to go on foot instead as our car had been seen now and we could easily be tracked potentially. We needed to grab essentials and food to sustain us in between towns until we were safe again.
I didn’t hear the voice in my head anymore. I was not sure what was it. We were getting ready to go again and leave before it got too dark. Chase wanted to find a good cave that we could camp in so we would not be attacked when we were sleeping. Lucy had finished prepping our food for our journey. We got our all our backpacks on. I had packed some spare clothes and I also had the knife wrapped up. I decided that I would keep the knife on my waist instead in case I ever needed it, it would come handy.
We decided to get some food before we started travelling by foot. We had decided to travel towards the Night Moon Pack for protection. If we could convince them to take us in, perhaps I may have a chance to find my twin brother, Jason. I do not think he is dead as we always have shared a special bond and I would have felt it if he had died the same night as my parents. I had always wondered if my brother would remember me or whether he would try to look for me.
We started leaving the small town and head towards the forest. We continued walking until we found a cave that was nicely hidden away and there was a lake nearby which we could at least get some water from. That was when I felt hot. It felt like this new energy. I felt like I could hear better and see better as well. That was when I heard the voice in my head.
“It's me, I am your wolf, my name is Amethyst. I have been watching you.” The voice responded back in my head. Both Lucy and Chase were looking at me and I squealed with delight that I had a wolf! Chase grinned at me, “Your wolf has appeared, hasn’t she?” Chase asked me. I nodded my head at his question. “Where have you been Amethyst? I thought I would be wolf less” I asked her. “I am sorry little one, but the Moon Goddess didn’t permit me to show myself. I could not help you whilst you were being held captive by that Rogue Alpha. However, now is not the time to explain, when it is time, I will explain the prophecy to you. Tonight, you will shift during the full moon.”
I told Chase and Lucy that I was to shift into my wolf at the full moon. Chase looked outside the cave, “Well, you have not got long, let’s get you outside first. We will be there every step of the way with you during your shift.” Chase said to me. I nodded and we walked outside. Chase said to me, “The first shift will always be really painful. The more shifts, the less pain it would be.” I nodded my head.
The pain was excruciating. It felt my head was going to burst into two. “Calm down Mia, the more you resist me, the more painful it will be for the both of us.” I tried to calm down and close my eyes and focus. I could hear my bones start to crack and breaking, when I opened my eyes again, I saw paws instead of feet and hands. Chase and Lucy had their mouths opened. I tried to say, “What are you both looking at?” It came out as growl instead.
I padded over to the side of the lake to look at my wolf. Amethyst was beautiful. She was all white with black patch and a purple crescent moon on the patch. I was in awe and said to Amethyst, “You are the most beautiful wolf I have seen.” Amethyst laugh and responded back, “So are you.” I smiled to myself.
I walked up to Chase and Lucy. They were still in shock looking at my wolf. I nudged Chase and that helped snapped him out of his shock. “Just concentrate in shifting back to human form. We will have much to discuss. I will turn my back and your clothes are right next to you to change into.” I nodded my head and tried to concentrate on my human form. It seemed a lot easier shifting back than shifting into a wolf. It was less painful. To my surprise, I had shifted back with my clothes still intact, I said to Chase, “You can turn around, my clothes were intact when I shifted back.”
Chase looked at me and said, “You are that prophecy.”
