The Hybrid

Episode 6: Nightmare

-Claire's POV-

I looked at Blake while he walks his way out of the house to meet Jace and the warriors. As he passes by the hallway, I couldn’t help but stare at the glass ceiling of the living area. Small stars twinkling with lights, mischievously squinting and saying hello to me… they look like pearls in the sky that adorn the dark night. The bright moon is completely out that shines brightly above, looking down on us as the air is filled with moisture after the rain few a hours ago. All I can hear is my heartbeat that is beating twice as fast when I bumped into Blake’s body and even he is no longer visible from where I am standing, I know this feeling is not ordinary. I’ve felt this with Kurt…but is it even possible that I can easily have a connection to someone else knowing that my Alpha mate died just recently?

I can’t help but give a dazed look of bewilderment to the moon and whisper “Moon Goddess, what is it that you plan for me this time?” as I slowly close the door of my room. It took me about a minute to go to my bed and I am still thinking about Blake. My mind is intent on thinking every d**n thing for the past week or so, I haven’t slept well but now I feel like there’s a blanket of coldness that made me shiver. As I lay down my head on Kurt’s pillow somehow it made my eyes feel heavier and heavier until I finally close my eyes sending me into a deep sleep.

----------------------

“Hi honey, how’s your day?” Kurt wrapped his arms on my body and kissed my neck while he whispered that to my ears. I was planting some roses in the garden and couldn’t help but giggle because his breath on my neck tickles.

I turned around to see my husband with his ever-glowing eyes and smiling lips as he gave me a wink and chuckle. I like it when he does that, he always checks on me even he’s busy. I smiled and showed him the rose that I am about to plant in the marble pot that we bought yesterday from the Garden Ville “I’m transferring Rosy to her new sanctuary”

“And how would you like to have lunch with your husband after you finish Rosy’s transfer to her new sanctuary?”

“I’d love that! Would you like me to cook for you, honey? I'll be done in 5 mins” as I potted Rosy and tapped on the soil after putting it near the fountain.  I waited for Kurt’s reply, but I didn’t hear any from him, so I raised my head and looked for him… All I can see after is blood coming from the fountain, dead bodies of warriors on the lawn. Witches battling with our warriors in rage and then there’s Blake…I can see him from afar outraged while preparing himself to attack someone that looks a lot like Olivia!

-Luke's POV-

“Brother, I will spare your life if you join me. Besides, Olivia is my twin which is your future wife…the only thing is your female Alpha ripped my sister apart and that is the root cause of this chaos. Let us finish this off, I only need Claire’s heart to bring Olivia back from the dead and that’s all it takes for this to be over” he smiled, and later on, all you can hear is his devilish laugh that keeps on echoing…

“Don’t you like to see Olivia again huh Blake? she cared for you remember?” He chuckled…and looked at Blake again to continue…

“Well, I know she used you but still you also had your manly benefits when you’re together with my sister…” he sniggered

Blake shapeshifted to his wolf form…he stands tall with his charcoal black fur, his eyes turned black and you can hear the loud howl that symbolizes its prowess as a mighty warrior ready to claim what is rightfully his and will not tolerate such misbehavior. His bared teeth with ears erect pointed forward to indicate a threat to the opponent. His bones moved under his skin and you can hear the audible steps his paws made in the ground making his way to attack Luke.

Then blood splatter…

Julia came to help, and to Claire’s surprise, her mother started to do Incantation where she is undertaking a ritual of magic which is semantically unexpected. Her orbs turned into bright crystals as purple fog-like forms surround her…

Luke started to use sorcery which is common to sorcerers and warlocks in Withry Valley, his attention now is focused on Julia as Blake is still laying in the ground. Though his left shoulder is completely ripped because of Blake, his facial expression is far from being pained. Dark smoke emits from his right hand as he recited some spells while staring straight to Julia…

When both Julia and Luke attacked each other, it’s like a bomb exploded as the ground trembles paired with lightning. You can see how both trying to catch their breath…

Julia made her way to check Blake who is now recovering from Luke’s attack, she saw an arrow-like knife with dark magic that made Blake frail for a moment. She instantly removed that and whispered a spell to counterattack the sorcery Luke did to torment Blake. While doing so…Luke saw that Julia’s defense is open, so he immediately struck her with a narrow-wide sword emitting dark smoke.

-Claire's POV-

Covered in a cold sweat, shaking, heart pounding…Claire looked around the room. She stumbles to the bathroom and started to pat cold water on her face coming from the faucet to fully awaken her senses. She looks at the mirror slowly while tears fell on her cheeks.

It was just a dream…

She leaned on the wall and started to cry, while the water on the faucet is flowing. That is the worst nightmare I had in my entire life.

Kurt…what are you trying to tell me, honey? Why did you visit me in my dream but disappeared? Why is my mom doing spells and fighting like she’s been doing witchcraft all her life? And who is Luke? Is he really Olivia’s twin brother who will raise her from the dead?

“I need to know what’s the meaning of all the things I can remember from my dreams…” Claire said. 

She put on her robes and went down the hallway to go to their Study Room. Determined to know what on earth her dream is trying to tell her...
