AURORA
My eyes snapped open and was welcomed by the sweet aroma of food and the fragrance of room freshener,
I slowly sit up and look around me,
i am in a beautiful royal like room, on a fluffy royal bed.
The aroma of roasted chicken and red soup keeps begging me to acknowledge it.
I slowly open the room's door and peep,all I see is a long hall way made of dark brown wood and multiple doors, I silently tip toe outside the room and walk through the hallway, down the spiral wooden stairs,
The aroma is getting stronger and seem to be motivating my feet.
I stopped and hide behind a shelf
"She'll definitely not stay here"
A woman with jet black hair spats angrily at a man sitting on a couch while majestically sipping something in his mug.
"Am I supposed to obey you...your majesty?" He said mockingly keeping his mug on a coffee table beside him.
"Come out of there Aurora.."
The man snap looking at my direction, my name rolled smoothly on his tongue as if he named me himself.
He's brunette and eyes are pink..just like mine...let me guess..this is my so called father.
Mom was right after all...l look like a female version of him..the hair colour,eyes,nose,lip and even the oval face..God even our skin colour is the same.
Am I supposed to be happy after finally meeting someone with the same eyes abnormality?.
I timidly walk out of my hiding,awkwardly standing before them,
He smile brightly standing up..bold and tall..he's too beautiful to be a father.
He stand before me and I mentally shrink in an attempt to look small and submissive, his aura is dark and screams evil.
"Hello there..my little princess"
He said in a deep husky voice scarring the hell out of me.
"Don't call me that"i manage to breath out looking away, trying to pacify myself.
He chuckled lightly still standing too close for my liking
"Then I believe you already recognize me sweetie"
He said slightly grabbing my chin and force me to look up at him
"Never look down dear..
you look just like your dad" he said pinching my cheek playfully.
"And I wish I didn't" i spat moving back for my own benefit cause he's kinda intimidating.
"Quite a mannerless child you have there" the woman behind him said glaring daggers at me.
"She's my daughter" my father said taking a step back and I finally breath normally again.
"For better introduction dear...I..am your father Drakes Luthur..and this is my mate Annabelle...our son Nicholas
Is at school"
he introduced joyfully
"I get it Drakes...why am I here?" I ask rudely with an uninterested look.
"You are almost 18...the prophecy will strick" he said casually.
"Soo..am here because of some stupid prophecy...?" I scoff walking back to the stairs.
"I left you with your mother to protect you from the black wolves my dear...you are a prophecy against them..they'll kill you as soon as they recognize you"
I look back at him astonished by his confession.
{You should at least listen to him Aurora..we can't keep running away from the reality.}
Mica said softly,
"You are my first child Aurora... illegitimate or not..you are my heir..
So you should be ready for this war..I can't lose you..I refuse to lose you..."
He said lowly with a hint of sadness for just a few seconds before his eyes turned emotionless again.
So he only wants me back cause am his stupid heir and he just casual call me an illegitimate child,
Mom was not his mate,were they even married?.
I suddenly feel alone and empty,
am alone in this world..with no one to call my own.
And surprisedly I wish ACE and HAZE are here with me..to hide me from Drakes and all these prophecy and war shits.
I feel as if I only belong with them.
{They are coming Aurora...I can feel them...they are coming for us}
{They are coming for us...I can feel them..there wolves are trying to reach me} Mica scream almost causing me a migraine.
I look at Drakes and mumbled "am hungry"
who knows how long I've been unconscious, besides the chicken and red soup I've been sniffing is begging me to devour it..this will buy time for the twins..hope Drakes won't kill me with his aura and information.
[Why don't you try reaching them] I told Mica.
{I can't...the chains locked my abilities..they'll follow our scent.. even though it'll take time but they'll find us Aurora} she assured firmly...Great..I'll have to listen to Drakes then..
•••••••••
Well my instinct was right after all,
there's a roasted chicken and red soup...but how on Earth did I smell it,there's a good distance between the room I came out from and the dining area.
{You have me Aurora..our nose is sharp and sensitive} Mica said proudly.
"Oh I have a surprise for you kid"
Drakes announced while we were eating..great please let it not be another shocker,I want to eat in peace.
"Hello" I heard a gentle voice mumbled.
i look up to see a blue haired guy walking towards us.
"Why are you late Nicholas?" Drakes mate snap looking pissed...what's her problem?.
"Chillax mom..I came here early..just decided to get some stuffs done..I didn't know it was late"
He said calmly sitting beside me.
"Sub sis, you're finally awake"
He said cheerfully and I only gave a polite smile trying to enjoy my chicken.
"Am Nicholas..but just call me Nico..your younger brother??" He said the last sentence as a question toward Drakes.
"She's one year older"
Drakes answered.
"Hey bro"
I heard a very familiar voice called
No don't tell me...
I quickly turn around and there he is standing in the room with his signature smile..these familiar black eyes and black shiny hair..
"PAPA"
I look back at Drakes who's calmly sipping his drink.
"Your surprise is here"
He mumbled disinterest clearly in his voice.
"PA..papa"..I mumbled tears building up in my eyes...this cannot be...what's happening..Mom"s husband is alive?.
"Hey there princess"
He said moving towards me,
I quickly get off my seat.
"Papa??" I called doubtful, trying so hard to believe he's really here...
Anger flash through me like electric current...if he's alive all this while...why did he leave me with Miranda to suffer...I remember all the bearings a received from Richard while I was still a kid.
All the times I was bullied at school,
These times my class mates beats me and me running home all bruised crying to Miranda...only for her to ignore me.
I remember how I got lost on my way from school when I was just 7.
It took me almost a day day before finding my way back home and non of them cared.
I remember how I sadly watch kids my age run around on the streets with their parents buying ice cream, while I was busy looking for a simple job for a 12 years old kid just to fend for myself.
I feel a strong wave of anger growing inside of me..he was alive..all this while..and yet he didn't bother to look for me..and he called Drakes bro..of course..blood is thicker than water.
Papa move forward about to touch me but I instinctively move back.
"Don't..touch..me" I growl in a voice i'm now pretty sure belongs to Mica,
Am visibly shaking out of anger..I breath in closing my eyes trying to calm down.. unknowingly drifting to my mind.
I look at the dark space and look up..only to see white fur in front of me..shielding me like a pup..she seem to be in a defence mode..
[Mica]
I whispered and she look behind her still shielding me.
I search for the chain restraining her before,and saw it on the dark floor broken into million pieces.
{Let me take charge} she growl standing bold..I only nod like a good kitten and gulp moving back to avoid the dark aura emitting from her.
Am tired of hiding and crying..that's what I've been doing all my life..the only childhood memory I have was of all the times I hide under my bed and cry myself to sleep.
"So you are alive...all these f*****g years,
you are alive..but didn't bother to look for me..how dare you.
To make things worst..you are here staying with this so called father of mine.. where's my mother..did she know that you know Drakes?"
She growl harshly taking a slow dangerous step towards him..
Surprisedly papa is still calm.
"Margret is dead..and yes she knew me and Drakes are brothers...
Am not her husband Aurora..I was with her to protect you.."
I quickly held on to Mica stopping her from making a move...I step forward taking control.
"What are you talking about..??"
I ask shocked for an uncountable time today.
Maybe it's time I know what happening in my life.
"It's a long story dear...let's sit"
He walk to the living room and I followed him
Anna roll her eyes walking upstairs, while Drakes walk out of the mansion..or castle whatever they call their home.
Nico just focused on his food..which only meant he already know about what ever s**t papa is about to tell me.
"Speak up".
