Family (Jayden's P.O.V)

0 4 / 0 1/ 2 0 1 5

Irina was in the kitchen and I, in the room. Could I stay with her for a month? I had not stayed with a girl for a long time. The last girls I has stayed with were my sisters.

I had two amazing twin sisters. One who my parents loved with all their life, Celine, and the other who they were nonchalant towards, Meline, and faintly hated but I loved. Meline was an amazing person and when she left, my light left too.

I had never known how much she protected and loved me until she left. And when I found out it broke me because she was gone and I could never thank her since I never really appreciated her. I had no idea what would become of me, how I would live without my sister.

My parents did not care about her disappearance and I faintly suspected that they were behind it. Even though I was my parents only son they never cared about me since I had an average aptitude. Moreover, they were expecting another son who they had tested and confirmed to have a high power aptitude.

Even though I was sorta useless I was still an heir so my parents probably would not do anything to me, I thought. That was the most stupid thought I had ever had, and if I could turn back the hands of time I would have run away with Meline.

My parents sold me. They were royalty, a king and his queen consort and yet they sold their child. They were not lacking anything but still sold me.

A neighbouring kingdom was experimenting to break the shackles on supernaturals and they decided to move on to live experiments. They began to experiment on humans, wolves, vampires and other supernaturals. It seemed like they would soon have a breakthrough and my parents wanted a piece of the pie.

They sent both innocents and criminals, as long as they were good specimens. When they felt they had still not done enough they sent me. They wanted to be seen as kind and generous, so they sent their child to a lab to be subjected to experiments.

I was subjected to unimaginable terror everyday for 1 0 0 years. I never ate, drank or used the toilet. There was a tube coming in into my body and another leaving my body. The first was to supply me with nutrients and the second to pass out my wastes.

Every waking hour, while my parents and my sister, Celine, were having fun or doing whatever it is they do I was in pain. I had no break from the pain and could not get time to be adjusted to it. I could only adapt to it overtime.

After roughly a 1 0 0 years, the experiment on me succeeded. I was the only one from my batch that had lasted for that long and the only one in the lab that had lasted for more than 5 years. They ran several tests on me, pushed me to the brink of where no wolf had reached and succeeded. My shackles were broken, the powers I had that were untappable became tappable.

The power that every generation of my family had but I did not have was now accessible by me. I could control it and also had the latent abilities of my family.

The first thing I did when they brought me out of the cell I was kept in for a 1 0 0 years, for a demonstration, was to set all of them on fire, literally. A white flame came out of my fingertips and flashed in my eyes as I watched every single one of them die.

All of them that had tortured me and the ones who watched were all killed, I did not care if they were spies or whatnot I just made sure no one was left behind. They all died that night and I was free.

I could have taken revenge on my parents but I did not. I left them alone even though they were the reason I became unshackled, a monster, a beast. Meline would not have wanted me to attack my own parents, they had brought me into this world and I had to respect that, because if they did not exist I would not either.

Another reason I did not go looking for them or for revenge was that I did not know if they were still alive. Celine was pretty ambitious and she could have killed our parents for all I knew, and they could also have died natural deaths. My parents were over 400 afterall and the average lifespan of a wolf was 500 years. If they were dead, even though they were bad to me, I would feel great grief and would not be myself.

Basically, inorder not to subject myself to an unpleasant situation or meeting I decided against seeking for my family. I might have decided to ignore my parents and Celine, but I did not do so for Meline. I looked for her everywhere, turned every rock, uprooted every plant but could not find her.

It was as if she had vanished into thin air or gone to another world, if that was possible.

While searching for Meline, I found a secret non governmental base. It was for people like me, people who were different.

The owner, Mr Faraday, took me in and raised me with the other strange people. I was normal when I was with them but at the same time different. I was strange like them which made me normal, but they felt I was different and some even called me a freak, talk about pots calling a kettle black.

It was not the best place but it was better than home. I even made some friends, something I had never had before. I learnt to control what my wolf, my magic and other abilities I never knew I had, like shape-shifting.
