chapter 1 The Forbidden kingdom Sambora

My name is Meera of the moonhallow clan I have other 4 siblings my older brother kai Darkfire his powers connect to fire, my sister after kai is Astrid Luna married to Alpha Lukas moonblade , third born Cormac Darktracker, myself not sure which name I will get since I don't have my powers yet and last but not least my younger sister Ayla Frostbite very cold for a young girl.

This better be the right city, I can finally get the assistance I need to get my powers working. In two days it's my 18th birthday I hope we get to the Oracle on time.

I hope the direction we were given by my Nana Anami are right sounded like she didn't remember them that we'll.its been too long once she took this journey and she herself was young when she did.

Most of my siblings had their powers working by 16 and my younger sister now 12 already has hers.I am the only one in my family who is a late bloomer.

We are 6 children born in a family of witches of witch that is from my mothers side. My father's side they are of wolf origin.

So far my family has produced three wolves and one witch I still to find out on which side my genes will fall under.

As in am now fully human which can be dangerous for me as I am the weakest in the world of superpower beings, I don't want to be the loser in my family like I always. The last at everything I do I hope this is the answer I've been looking for.

There is a saying in our kingdom that if you bloom after the age of 18 you will become a monster that kills a anything in its path.

The story that was told of the late bloomer my family ,my uncle he went crazy and they didn't know how many of his people he killed that night because they couldn't tell from which body parts belonged to. They digged a mass grave and put all the bodies in one grave, that grave looked like a mountain it scared me when they showed it to us. That is why my parents decided I go seek help from the Oracle of the east.

He never stays in one place for too long we came here because we recieved word he was seen around these parts of the kingdom.

The cursed Kingdom of Sambora.

It is said that the evil done here can't be forgiven by G*d himself.

There are stories of human sacrifices that sustain the curse it self using innocent lives.

If I am found to be human I might not get to leave here alive.

My parents have cust a spell that shields my true being but the spell can only last till my 18th birthday.

It's been a long journey , we went through alot of dark forest ,our horses couldn't even make it through the dark forest, I fell off while they ran away, there is blood under fingernails I better wash that off, I don't want any of these wolves get the smell of my blood they will know I am human.

"Kai, look my hands I have blood all over them, I need to get them washed quickly. "

We look around and saw horse troughs and rushed and washed my hands there.

As we approach to Enter the gates of the curser kingdom Sambora you can feel the air grow thick with and eerie, unnatural energy. The sky above seems to darken as if the sun itself was scared to shine upon this forsaken land.

It was late in the night we needed to get a place to sleep, I was so tired I could hardly keep my eyes open.

Since the horses ran off with some of the money we had. We had to settle for a cheaper option for shelter through out the night.

We approach the local inn, the sign creaking to the wind and we push the creaky door open. Inside,the air is thick with the scent of old books,smoke and something sweetly herbal .

Rumours say the inn is run by a coven of witches.

We approach and the reception desk is an ornate, wooden affair. Behind the desk stand a beautiful woman,with long curly hair.

The eyes sparkle with warmth and curiosity as she greets us.

"Welcome travellers to the moonlit Rest,"she says her voice husky and smooth." I am Mia the innkeeper, how can I assist you tonight?"

As we meet Mia's gaze,i feel a shiver run down my spine. Her eyes seem bore into my soul as if searching for secrets and stories. I realise that Mia is not just a simple innkeeper, but I can't quite put my finger on what it is.

Mia hands us our key we asked for one room with two beds in it not a good idea to be in seperate rooms. "Your room is just up the stairs second door on the right. You'll find a fire lit and a warm bed waiting for you oh in your case two beds waiting for you."

As we take the key, we notice that Mia fingers brush against mine. Sending a spark of electricity through my body. I feel a sense of connection to this mysterious woman but I don't know what to make of it.

We take the key and head upstairs to rest and gather our thoughts on how will find the Oracle in the morning.

As we climb the stairs I can't help but feel Mia's eye on me, I shake ofd the feeling and focus on finding our room

We open Mia instructed the room is cost,with a plush armchair and small ornate desk. There is also a large, wooden wardrobe and a comfortable-looking beds with thick , feather duvet.

There is a strange feeling, it's as if the room has been waiting for us.i can sense a faint of magical energy emanating from the walls but I shrug it off.

As I approach my bed, I notice a small, folded note on the bedside table. I pick it up and examine it. The note is written in elegant, cursive script.

A much as I want to know more about this note and want is says I'll out off till morning I was just too tired to do more.

I took a shower and wore this night gown provided my brother did the same and we slept for the night.

However I am awoken in the dead of the night, I look over to my brother he is fast asleep. I sit up in the bed, listening intently. Trying to locate the source of the sound.i throw off the covers and get out of bed, feeling the chill of the night air on my skin.

I go towards the door, I walk out I walk downstairs to be met by Mia. It's like she was waiting for me, she waved at me to come to her.
