Forever Bound

Chapter 5

Ariel's POV

I stand in front of Silas and stare at him in disbelief as tears fall from my eyes. I feel hurt inside of me at Silas's hurtful and harsh words. How could he takes one glance at me and suddenly deny everything? He was the one who approached me in the first place, why did he do so if he has zero interest in me? That is unfair and so inhumane. I will never forgive Silas no matter what. Maybe I should have just committed suicide that night. If I had not met Silas then I would have just committed suicide, that way I would not have to be going through any of this, I wojld have been resting with the other members of my pack by now. Silas is a traitor and I really hope he gets the same treatment.

"Do not ask me that question and do not also test my patience!" Silas yells at me. His face is red in anger and his hazel eyes suddenly have darker shades. Silas takes a step close to me until there is only little gap separating the both of us. He leans closer to me and whispers into my ears.

"You must never return here, ever again. If you love your life and that of your unborn child, I suggest you never try to see me again. I have given the guards a go ahead so if you try anything funny like coming back here, I will not stop them from unleashing their wrath on you. I will watch them harrass you and your unborn child." Silas spits out in disdain. He emphasizes his statement word for word so it can stick properly in my head. I do not see his threats as empty, as a matter of fact, I believe every word of his and truly I will not return back here. Rather, I will do exactly what I should have done that night. I should have killed myself and then that way, none of these embarrassing things would have happened to me. I would have never met Silas, my worse nightmare and arch enemy.

"I have a Luna and a reputation to live up to. Clearly you do not judging from the way you joblessly go around having s*x with every man you come acrosss with. You must be really silly to think that you can throw the pregnancy on me." Silas yells at me. The tears do not stop coming, they get louder every minute and they become more plenty at every hurtful word Silas utters from his mouth. I must be cursed with living a miserable life.

"Now, I want you to quietly stand up and exit my pack house with the thought of never returning." Silas snaps at me. My mind wants to stand up and leave but my body does the exact opposite by sitting on the couch and remaining still as I slowly process the situation in front of me. Silas rejected me, my wolf howls in pain and I sob loudly but yet Silas does not show the slightest expression of pity for me. Instead, he looks nonchalant about all of it. How can someone be so heartless?

"Get out!" Silas yells. His loud voice is enough to jolt me back to my reasonable reality. I j******f the couch and sluggishly make my way of the room but not after dropping the brown envelope with him, he can do whatever he pleases with it but as for me, I no longer have use for it.

I make my way out of the pack house with everyone including the guards from earlier staring at me weirdly. I find the closest woods to Silas's pack house and cry my eyes out until I fall asleep.

I am suddenly woken up by a bright light shining above the sky. I slowly flutter my eyes open and they come in contact with the full moon. I hear wolves howling from different angles and the sky has suddenly become so dark and gloomy, the only thing serving as a source of light is the weird bright light above the sky.

At least it is a full moon which means the wolves are hungry. I am ready to finally meet my pack members again. I can no longer spend another day in this wicked world with heartless people like Silas lurking around. I must find peace and the only way that can happen is with the people I love the most, my pack members. I feel bad for the child inside of me and how I am about to end its life but it is for the betterment of myself and for the child.

I sluggishly walk towards the direction the howling noise is coming from but I immediately freeze in my steps when I hear a rumbling sound and the ground shakes. I fall to floor and my eyes come in contact with the bright light. A feminine voice suddenly echoes from the sky.

"Ariel Gavins! Ariel Gavins! Ariel Gavins!" The feminine voice calls out my name.

I immediately understand what is going on. I must be having a revelation from the Moon goddess, she must be trying to tell me something.

I release a heavy sigh and shut my eyes close for a brief moment as I listen attentively to the echoing voice.

"That child in you. That child is set for greater things. The child will grow up to become a great one. Do not make the mistake of killing that child as that child is the veil between life and death. This child holds very rare powers that you must protect from the wrong hands."

I snap my eyes open at the mention of wrong hands. I scrunch my brows in confusion, what did the Moon goddess mean by wrong hands? The bright light in the sky suddenly disappears and everywhere goes dark again.

What kind of revelation is this?
