Kadupul

Ambrose POV

"But how are you so sure it's her??"

Katherine asks me.

Katherine's our younger sister and the one who manages the whole camp and is even the one who formed it.

"I'm not sure sister, it's just what I feel. we're not wolves. We can't just tell by looking at a girl that she's the one but still when u heard her laugh from the other end of the hall that time , I just knew. intact we all six did and think yourself how is it possible to hear someone who doesn't wanna be heard and that too from that distance??..

only the one who knows the skill of getting heard can do that . right? " I ask her.

" well...maybe someone taught her ". she says back.

"Ahan !!! then what would you say about the sparks I felt when I held her wrist and touched her lips ?? what's the reason for that then??"

I defend my point.

" what ?? you touched her ?? are you out of your b****y mind ? " she scolds me.

" you know you can't. if she's the one then she cannot be just yours , she has to choose from everyone willingly or each one of you die before the 'choosing' . did you forget??". she adds. reminding me the truth.

that she isn't just mine untill and unless she chooses me and if choose me that means my brothers die and I can't let that happen . I just can't.

"I'm sorry Katherine,

thus won't happen again".

this won't happen again . she's Nothing but Just a girl who would destroy our family. I can't have feelings for her. I can't let the fairies win.

my brothers enter the room including Edwin, the alpha and Elon, the vampire king.

now I know you must be thinking that Wolves and vampires are enemies. well they are but here my boys Edwin and Elon are best friends since they protected their land from the dark world.

my sister had planned this meeting and dinner for us siblings and since Edwin and Elon are just like family, there were invited too.

she thinks that since that girl alisha is here , we would start having conflicts between us just like our dad had with his siblings over mom.

" wow, Ambrose. you're really hungry". Jasper teases me since I'm early.

"She called me. she wanted to give me gifts. loves me more". u point at Katherine and everyone sits at the dining table.

We start gossiping as usual. we talked about about what happened during our day and since today was the first day , we had to free everyone early so that they don't get scared of this camp on their very first day.

today's just the intro of every class.

"so. did you get mer her ??" Katherine speaks and we all know whom she's speaking about.

"I saw her during the camp's petrol".she added.

everyone was silent. Edwin and Elon knows about it too , but we all were silent.

" we still have time together guys. let's not be sad over this". Waldo kindly says to us and we just nods in understanding.

" so, you guys met her ?" Elon ask in excitement.

" I did" Waldo , Wyatt and me said together.

"nahh" Edison, Ralph and Jasper said in disappointment.

"But she's so beautiful. I heard her laugh in the morning and I can't stop thinking about her". Jasper said.

" true '. we all five said and then laughed...and then started talking about something else.

we're laughing and talking. we have never been together for most of our lives, we're just children sent to war and when we came back we were all adults. we did contacted eachother through our minds but that's different then actually meeting and we just met. I'm not letting her ruin this , I won't.

next day , we had the same classes,

History, defence and survival.

there were more but for beginners it's just these three.

in history, we teach them about the kingdom's past since they should know how they all are alive and free today. second defence, before learning how to fight they should know how to defend themselves. third survival, once they save themselves, they should know how to survive in different environments. Wyatt teaches history , Edison defence, Ralph and Jasper survival.

me and Waldo takes care of the security and Katherine manages everything.

since this is quarter to noon , Alisha must be in Edison's class.

u walk towards the stadium where we teach them about weapons and how to save yourself from them.

through the window ,I accidentally see Edison holding Alisha's both hands at her back. he was centimetres away from her. everyone might think they're fighting but I know this is no teacher- student moment.

I.......

I don't wanna be near her but...

why am I having this feeling like I don't wanna see her ...

with someone else . even if he's my own brother. I feel like it should be me holding her wrist like that.....

Edison pov

This was gonna be the first time i talk to her. I've heard it from Edwin how werewolves find out about their mates. how does they know if it's her and all....

and he always says " how would I know? I'm still mate-less" and I laugh because I know he doesn't know , it's just fun to tease him.

they say love us the purest form of emotion. it's the only emotion that's selfless and I don't know why we all had to go through this thing called "choosing".

yeah as lame as it sounds.

so, I have got a feeling that everyone's playing the guessing game with you guys and you're the one to guess? do not worry, let me tell you.

Alisha is the one who's born to.. ...

in simple form 'she's the one who would protect kadupul , the flower and will choose a partner more like her other half or soulmate among all six of us brothers and this whole thing is called choosing.

Not to be rude or disrespectful to the fate but it is what you get when you had to lose all of your brothers just to be with a girl and still the girl is worth it.

This is the fate of sons in our blood line and that's the reason how our sister was born. My mother wanted to have a girl because she's the only one who's gonna survive because once chooses , five of us are not gonna be with her anymore.

it's been like this since centuries or so.

over dramatic??? ask me.

well... she's hell of a girl.

I enter the Hall to teach the lesson and the first lesson and the first person I saw in the crowd was her. The way she's looking at me with such purity in her eyes, it's just.... so loving.

I could tell just by looking at her eyes that she could feel what's going around. like she knows something's happening but can't point it out.

I feel sorry for the pain we will cause her when she'll know she will have to choose one of us.

we can't tell us anything because that will manipulate her judgement and we can't let that happen because it isn't just about us it's about the future and protection of kingdom too.

I reach her holding my sword to attack her because that's what I'm teaching- how to defend yourself. So, she defends herself she's pretty fast at learning.

"what's your age?" i ask her.

"22 sir" she answers.

oh! don't call me sir please. call me Edison.

"as you wish"

I attack again, she defends again. we weren't just fighting with swords, she was brave enough to look me in the eye and like i was looking at her.

I see it as a challenge

I attacked her differently with my sword and she drops her sword. I twirl her and comes front while holding her hands at her back making her completely defenseless and as close as possible to me.
