FAMILY REUNION SUCKS

SO THIS IS GOING TO BE IN MELISSA'S POV. SORRY ABOUT THE CONFUSION

Imperfections is beauty, madness is genius and its better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring

June

Pain.....

So much pain....

Pain in it fullest was pain itself.

The air chilled

The ground wet

The pounding of drums so close it brought more of that horrible pain.

Chained like a crucifier, I stirred from the deep sleep I was forced into. How on heck did I get caught and chained up, everything was going fine so what the hell happened.

Flashed of that night, fangs, claws, furs, blood, grey eyes.

I snapped my eyes open, releasing weak angry growl from deep within.

"You are quite the beauty"

I jerked my angry gaze towards the voice, making sure to voice out my displeasure through the sharp snarls that erupted from my throat.

Clad in a black tuxedo he emitting the raw dominance as he glowered down at her. His hair was light brown like mine and his gaze was one I wished I could avoid as they pierce through me. I felt an invulnerable shiver rake through me from the intensity of his aura finally understanding how my friends felt whenever I did lose my cool but this stranger had his cool and that alone brought cold shivers down my spin.

'We can still take him down'

I muttered hastily to my wolf hoping to at least feel something other than the damn pain.

'Lyca?'

Nothing, absolutely void of nothingness

'Lyca?'

The stranger in front of me cocked his head sideways studying me not as a human being more like a prized specimen.

"It hurts doesn't it? The pain? The empty feeling"

Gosh his voice sounded so rich, so velvet I could feel myself being lured.

If he wasn't this good looking I would have taken his death fast but now I plan on taking it slowly, imaging how I would disfigure that perfect bad boy looks before ripping his heart out. He will die a slow death reliving this agonizing pain am feeling.

"Its one of my greatest potion you see, mere werewolves are weaken by silver, magical are weakened by iron but Lycans, ha! !aha! they are very unique indeed, weakened by both silver and iron.... How touching don't you think, little sister".

I felt my whole body tense.

'Little sister? then does that mean...'

A loud animatic snarl escaped from me before I realized it.

The claimed family but still stranger all but cock his head. A smirk visible on his lip,

"You are quite cranky , that isn't fitting for a lady"

He glanced down at the gold watch hidden under the sleeve of his turd.

"The Silone should have rared off by now we have so much to talk about Melissa Valsher, the Alpha female or should I say Alpha king"

'This moron thinks am the Alpha king? Is he daft to the prophecy out there?'

"Oh I got it wrong didn't I, but can you blame me, Mother and I thought dear aunt Ivory gave birth to only one child. Mother didn't even get to hold you before Davis took off then years later we got rumors of a strong female with the blood of the werewolf king living in an assassin pack in Arkansas 2 hundred miles from here, mother told me to solve it and I did. Thinking and thinking if my little sister were brought up in an assassin pack surely she must be a killer and with the blood of father in her veins she would be a pain in the ass to rid off, so I mixed a little of this and that and sent my own troupe to get my job done. It was quite easy little sis getting the Dalehale pack and that prison break talk about ruler of us all".

He hunched over crackling like a mad man.

My frown was ever present as I listen to his nonsense. His velvet voice making it hard not to.

"You wouldn't imagine the crazy look mother had when we heard of another wolf, protector of human and wolves with the blood of the werewolf king, a king on top of an Alpha. You lots sure did gain your reputation very honorable am quite jealous you know. Ha! Ha! Ha! Heck! Mother lost her shit when we finally got the prophecy in our hands, she threw a huge tantrum and has been in habitation ever since. Don't worry you'll get to see her soon. Ohh!! Where was I oh yes, so I put two and two together and finally understood the prophecy, Goddess Selene gave me two adorable siblings, an alpha and a king and when put together we get an Alpha king, heck! How troublesome when we need only one true heir, you wouldn't believe how many sleepless night I had until I came with a conclusion. You my little sister are more than just an Alpha, you are the source and the key".

My eyes widened dramatically as I recall a piece of the prophecy.

'A source and a key is needed to shift the balance'.

He smiled a devious and a knowing smile looking down at his watch again. before exclaiming.

"Oh! Look at the time, it's dinner time and am famished, come on now little sis, time to get you all cleaned up and proper for dinner"

He withdrew a key from his breast pocket, unlocking the chains one by one before stepping backwards.

My legs felt like wet noodle but I was willing to endure it if it meant just one strike to end his pathetic life. He was out the gates before I could raise my head up watching me struggle, he had a frown on that made me wonder, my hands burned from holding the bars for support, I glare at him as he just continue observe me.

"Take her to her room, the servants must be waiting. I want it done quick and done on time for dinner".

I jerked up searching for whom he was referring to, he was the only person am seeing down here with me suddenly out of the darkness two demon Lycan emerged gripping both my arms and effortlessly picking me up. I wonder where the heck they came from but still with them here it also meant I couldn't kill him but no worries dinner was yet to come.

It took three she wolves to bath and cloth me into a dark silky off shoulder dinner gown with silver jewelry and silver stilleted. Talking to them was like talking to the wall. They look well cared for with their clean maid dress and proper cleaning but still I could feel fear leave them in waves.

Was it their fear of me? or fear of living in an haunted house like this?.

The two demon Lycans were there on time to take me down the hall towards the dinner table big enough for fifty people, goddess know I would have lost my way and who the heck have a dinning table like that when it look like he obviously dines alone. I observed him at the head of the table, he still had on his suit and that business man ire, he drank from a goblet before slowly his eyes gave me a quick assess from the doorway before letting out a huge grin.

"My... Little sister! What a beauty you are!".

I sent him a glare that I hope told him I wasn't impress and would rather get his blood stain on me than play dress up. I took a seat at the far edge of the table making it obvious I don't want to be anywhere near him. Reason one, He made my skin crawl, reason two I might just kill him sooner than later without gaining anything from him.

Surprisingly he had a permanent frown on his face his eyes look clouded as he took in the distance I made, then suddenly the air around chilled as his clouded eyes change to anger, I watch him take deep breath before drawing his hand in a motion to come closer. I squinted my eyes to say something nasty to him then I felt my chair rise moving towards him.

'Fuck does he have magic?'

It wouldn't be good if he does, I glance up releasing a breath once I noticed that it was one of the demon Lycan or was it another? That was moving my chair. These demon Lycans are almost identical with their black hair and dark soulless eyes, the only difference they had were their sizes.

"Much better don't you think little sister", he approved once I was placed beside him by his right. I was still shock by the movement and was shut up again when the servants appeared filling the table with assorted chickens and all variety of food. My stomach sang at the sight.

"Eat my dear, we have so much to discuss"

Discuss? Whatever the heck are we suppose to discuss when you are going to be dead soon.

Again he drank from his goblet. I wish it was poisoned. The goblin was transparent with rubies crafted in it, it contained a red content that had a slight purplish in color when moved. I can bet that isn't any ordinary wine. I shivers slightly before glancing down at the food in front of me sniffing out to know if it was poisoned or had any of that nasty stuff in it.

"It's not poisoned little sister, I wouldn't dare hurt my blood"

He exclaimed, dropping the goblet before taking a piece of chicken from the table, he chewed slowly before picking some more and dropping more on my plate.

Is he seriously trying to be nice to me?

"Here, Eat, You need it more for your strength"

I sent him a glare trying hard to understand him but it was hard, his eyes were too deep, too enchanting, they were as blue as the sky, looking closely you could see the green dusted in them making it look like the reflection from the sea, a mirror of blue and green, so hypnotic.

"To be quite frank with you am honored to have you here sis, even though am the one doing all the talking its nice to have someone to talk to for a change, we are family after all"

Its quite obvious he's a lonely bunch, the severe quietness in the hall alone with nobody around except for those looming shadows around, its hard to pinpoint their location but I know they are out there watching, waiting....

"Oh I almost forgot"

He clapped his hand and a maid came running in carrying a tray of chocolate pudding, she dropped it in front of me hastily. I took a momentum shock at having it there then slowly I sniffed the chocolate hoping it was as safe as the food so I can eat it, but something was added, it had this stinging scent that made me want to cover my nose and puke. it was almost identical to the smell from the goblet.

Oh he did not just do what I think he did

But he did and it was either stupid of him or dumb. I rose up with force slamming the tray away ignoring the maid standing close bye then glared with all my might at him, my eyes were sure to be glowing even though still weak Lyca wanted a piece of his neck.

"Is this some kind of a joke"

I yelled giving him a menacing glare that had the maid trembling to the ground. I had noticed during my bath that my necklace was long gone and this my anger had burned out the poison. I was in full Alpha mode and ready to slaughter.

'Kill..... Kill..... Kill',

Lyca yelled repeatedly, I felt that same pull I felt when I had first shifted and almost killed my brother. Now I was going to do the same with him the only difference was that it would be for a great cause.

'Gladly'

I could feel her fangs draw out, I could feel the veins marring my eyes and my features sharpening. Lyca was ready to stalk her prey.

He stared at me in amusement knowing fully well of my fury yet he was unaffected.

He grin, he fucking grinned.

"I see you have a keen sense to magic well it's quite expected since you are half Davister but I wanted to be sure how far your powers had grown"

'Unfit'

I couldn't agree more with Lyca. Something told me to hold back and I did but was still in my Lycan form, I needed the right opportunity to strike.

"Listen dude I don't know what your deal is but I advise you let me go before I rip your heart out of your chest"

Those shadowery demons appeared taking stance behind their master who stared on in amusement before frowning slightly.

"Dude? Oh! Goodness I forgot to tell you my name.. Well I did kind of expect you to start calling me big brother but that was to wishful I think"

'Seriously this dude is twisted'

'Kill.... Kill... Kill',

Lyca was hungry for his blood to give him back all the pain he gave her.

"The name's Devaro, your older brother"

'Older brother? Mom didn't have any child before us unless, ha! Of course! The puppet king"

"I thought you would have been smart enough to figure it out with all my rambling heh! Heh!"

I did figure it out but I didn't want to believe it, he was the source to my mother's pain and the flesh to the enemy I wouldn't dare label him family.

"Denial is such a spicy cocoon just as rejection from your own family".

Huh! I guess my look did give it away but now he's starting to seem like a really lonely man. I expected an arrogant wolf with far too many than he should have not some empty shell of a soul or a lose string puppet, it make me wonder a lot of thing....

"I believe that will be all for tonight, you are dismissed"

He didn't look at me but made a gesture to his shadowery guards.

Like what really is his deal? His goal? What goes inside this man sitting before me that I have to consider my older brother. My older brother from an aunt who betrayed my mother, her sister. A reunion forced.

"Micage will be sure to join us next dinner, good night little sister"

Well it really is official family reunion sucks and I can't wait for the next one
