Betrayal. Such a straightforward word, yet so profound. Because I was brought into this world without my will, betrayal could be used to characterise my entire life. A youngster who was never intended to belong anywhere was unwanted and unloved. In the Novilunium Pack, my mother was an omega. Her nearly waist-length jet-black hair was styled in a low ponytail. She had gorgeous emerald eyes and thick chocolate skin. According to what I've heard, they were the darkest green, and gazing into them was like seeing directly into the skies. It was as though Aphrodite herself had visited and blessed my mother.
Betrayal.
Such a straightforward word, yet so profound.
Because I was brought into this world without my will, betrayal could be used to characterise my entire life.
A youngster who was never intended to belong anywhere was unwanted and unloved.
In the Novilunium Pack, my mother was an omega.
Her nearly waist-length jet-black hair was styled in a low ponytail. She had gorgeous emerald eyes and thick chocolate skin. According to what I've heard, they were the darkest green, and gazing into them was like seeing directly into the skies. It was as though Aphrodite herself had visited and blessed my mother.
According to what I've heard, she was a stunning dark chocolate wolf with white fur covering her tummy.
Because my mom passed away while giving birth to me, I've never met her.
Wolves who give birth to puppies without their partners run a higher risk of difficulties. The pups hardly ever even make it to birth, and those few that do usually pass away right afterwards.
A rogue wolf beat and sexually assaulted my mother, resulting in an unintended, difficult pregnancy.
Her and her wolf were broken because the rogue wolf had killed her mate when he tried to save her.
They claim that breaking a mate bond is worse than dying and is like getting stabbed a thousand times with knives covered in wolfsbane.
immediate, excruciating agony, then a gradual, enmity-inducing heat that burns your soul.
The night sky was torn by my mother's screams as she changed back into her human form. She sat transfixed in disbelief while clinging to her deceased partner.
The rogue trailed his target, keeping a close check on her with empty amber eyes while waiting for the right time to strike.
He let out a harsh howl, changing from his wolf form just as the heavens started to weep in sorrow over what was happening.
When the insane man seized hold of the woman who was lying in front of him, he sealed my fate as well as hers.
She made an effort to commit suicide in order to kill her pup, but her wolf half was stronger than the human side and prevented her from succeeding. Five agonising months later, Octavia Johnson and I were forced into this horrible world by no fault of our own.
In order to successfully return to our Moon Goddess and her Mate, the man I wish was my father, my lovely mother managed to do it when her wolf was still weak from giving birth to me.
I was smaller than the typical pup due to the difficult pregnancy, so it was only natural that everyone believed I was a burden to the pack. I would never be welcomed or loved again because of a disease that was afflicting the pack at the time.
There has never been a successful, confirmed live birth of a bastard pup from a mated she-wolf in the history of our pack or those in America. I am the first and most likely the only pup to have been born by a man who was not mated to my mother and have survived.
I don't understand why the Moon Goddess chose me or why she allowed me to live while my mother was forced to go. I wish I could change my destiny after being born into such a vicious group.
No one knew I was alive, everyone thought I was dead. My name is Kellina Lilith Morningstar, my father was Ansel Lightwood the former Alpha of the North East Atlantic Pack. I didn't take his last name since he wasn't much of a father figure to me. My mother was Esther Mikaelson, the mother of Freya, Finn, Elijah, Klaus, Kol, Rebekah, and Henrik Mikaelson. Niklaus is my full brother by blood, the others are my half siblings. None of them know I exist of course, I wanted to change that. First, let me tell you my story: My mother and father were having an affair behind Mikael's back, the abusive father to all the Mikaelson children. Shortly before my mother casted a spell to turn all my siblings into vampires she was pregnant with me, she knew that I wasn't Mikael's baby. So, my mother gave birth to me far in the woods where my fathers pack helped deliver me. My mother gave me to my father and told him to tell me she died at birth, she fled to her family telling them all I died and she had a miscarriage. I don't know if i should be happy or upset that she left me. If she took me with her, I would've needed to grow up as the bastard child of Mikael.
The darkness slowly crept through my veins. I could feel it. Every inch it consumed, it burned. The agony of the storm raging within my body was debilitating. My senses dulled, overtaken by the pain coursing through every part of my being. Each breath was not without torment. And each moment felt like a lifetime. My mind filled with a cacophony of thoughts, some my own and some were that of my brothers. The bond, mercilessly forcing us to bear not just our own anguish but also each other's. Knees buckling, I fall to the ground but my eyes never leave her. My mate. My light. My Klara.
. I felt sad as I noticed Thrain looking down at Delilah with a proud smile. I need to talk to Damien, I thought. Everyone grew hushed as I approached the stage, signaling that it was time to change directions and begin the pack run. Everyone was eager to see how the new pack members would respond to my wolf form, and they were all tingling with expectation and excitement. I took off my clothes and was now just in my bra and underwear. I closed my eyes and invited my wolf to approach. Up until the point where I was standing on all fours, I felt my snout lengthen, my back hunch, and all of my bones move. When I opened my eyes, I heard the new members' cries of surprise; they will all grow used to it eventually. Thrain and Delilah were next after I moved, then Josh and Lauren. They all transformed at once, and we were standing in front of them as wolves. While I waited for Marty to hop up onto the stage and then laid down to allow him to do so, the kids leapt onto their parents' backs. After making sure Marty was safe by grabbing my fur and squeezing his legs, I let out a loud, prolonged howl and ran into the woods. As the group left behind me, I could hear hundreds of paws hitting the ground.
"Paisley has a fiancé. She is about to get married" "But she's not married yet is she? She can still go. Why does it have to be me" "Nevaeh..." "I hate you all so much. Especially you" she glared at me before storming off. I couldn't hold the tears in. Coulter wrapped his arms around me while mama ran after Nevaeh. "She hates me" I sobbed into his chest. I could take anything but that. Did she really mean what she said? Did she really hate me? I was stubborn, hard headed and could hold the longest grudges but when it came to her, I was a completely different person. "She doesn't. She's just upset. She'll come around" I doubted that. This wasn't like the other times Nevaeh and I fought. This was different and something told me she wouldn't be coming around anytime soon.
