Alpha’s Cursed Mate

************

Rose’s POV

“That was how I lost contact with your mother.” He stated. I sat down on the chair.

So my mother was a witch. No wonder, I possess the prowess. But wait, how did he know me?

I looked at him. “You said that you are my father but from what you stated, you did not say she was pregnant, how the hell do you recognize me then?” I questioned.

“That locket on your neck…” He pointed to it. I subconsciously gripped it.

“I was the person that gave it to your mother as a token of love. It was made out 10% of her prowess and 5% of my wolf strength. I guessed you have been unable to open, well, I think you can.” He said and I dragged my gaze away from him. I unlocked the locket and brought into my palm. I stared at it before unbolting it with great reluctance. My eyes went wide when I saw what was inside.

It was a picture of my mother and father. They looked so young and one could see the love even from a glance.

“She is pretty.” Was all I could mutter.

“Well, that’s is not wrong. Your mother was just like a pearl, her skin even when it was in sackcloth, it was porcelain. That was one of the things that made me suspicious when I met her.” He said and took a seat in front of me.

“So finally, you know who your real father is.” Ciara said and walked towards me before sitting. I looked up at her and showed her the locket.

She gasped as she saw it. She looked at it deeply.

“She looked like someone I know,” she said and my eyebrows creased further.

She turned to look at my father, “did she mention the name of her coven to you?” She asked.

“She told me that she could only tell me the name but not the location in case the Alpha king hears of me being in love with her and I am questioned. The name was something like Ki-” He said but he could not seem to remember.

“Kismanthu?” Ciara asked him.

“Yes, Kismanthu.” He said as he clicked his fingers together.

“That is where Layla and Melissa is from. Now I see why they resemble. I know where we can find her.” She said and we all looked at her.

“Really?” Hudson asked.

She wasted no time in nodding her head positively.

“When are we setting out?” Leo asked.

“Leticia?” Ciara called out to her. Leticia turned to look at her.

“You are a full breed witch. Activating portals should not be a problem for you or is it?” She asked.

“No, how stops are we going to make?” She asked.

“Or rather how many of us are going?” She asked again.

“Ciara, Damien, Leo, my dad, you and I.” I said and she nodded.

“We will be making a total of six stops. Ciara will guide me.” She said and we all nodded our heads.

“Now?” She asked.

“Yes.” My father said.

“If I remember clearly, all the witches will be meditating in Ra hall today.” Ciara said.

“What is the Ra hall?” Leo asked.

“The Ra hall is for meditation and connecting with your spiritual prowess. And also, they will be spell surrounding the whole place so it would be difficult to get in but nevertheless we could embark on the journey now.” She explained and we all nodded.

After a while, we all freshened up and ate some good food before we stepped out of the house. Damien did some talking with Hudson and Ray before moving away from them while Leo rang Blake about the new situation. After groaning and murmuring, he agreed to keep the pack in check.

Now, we stepped into the woods. Leticia let out a shaky breath before closing her eyes. She muttered some spells and suddenly a golden portal appeared, it was spinning so fast.

“On the count of three, we jump in in twos.” She instructed. I breathed out and nodded my head. I looked at my dad and Leo, contemplating on who you choose. My father shook his head as if noticing my plight. I smiled at him and held at Leo by hand. He looked at me and tightened the grip on our hands.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“One. Two. Three,” And Ciara and Damien first. Leo and I second. Then my dad and Leticia third. It felt we were moving at a faster rate. Then suddenly, we stopped and came out in a place. It was snowy. I shuddered as the cold breeze hit me, Leo pulled me closer to warm me. I looked at him with gratefulness. He shook his head, insinuating that it was unnecessary. I chuckled. I looked around and saw my dad, almost freezing.

“Dad?” I called out and he looked at me.

“Are you okay?” I asked him with worry lacing my voice.

“I am.” He said with a tight smile that had him gnashing his teeth. Well, without any body warmer we are out here in the snow.

Leticia, I really appreciate. Note the sarcasm please.

“The next portal will be available in three minutes.” She announced and we nodded our head.

Three minutes passed, she activated it again and we got in as we did before This time we found ourselves in the middle of a place I can’t even recognize. It was filled with dirty ashes. Gosh, the smell was so nostalgic. I coughed out and Leo started rubbing my back.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

Poor him, he went on this journey with me.

“He is our mate.” Halona said. I smiled.

“Long time no talk.” I teased her. She rolled her eyes with a scoff.

“I have been taking my time to rest after that incident.” She said and I nodded my head in understanding.

“Are you okay?” Leo asked again. I looked at him and nodded positively.

“The portal will be opened in the next five minutes.” Leticia said again.

Really?

Five minutes in this horrible place.

“Can you choose a better and more relaxing location to stop?” Ciara asked as she sat on Damien’s laps. She shook her head.

“It all deals with vision.” She stated.

We all nodded our heads and waited for the next five minutes to arrive as quickly as possible.

After five minutes of enduring the stench, Leticia activated the portal again and this it took longer to stop. It would have been better if the place we stopped was endurable. But no, we stopped at a graveyard. A fvcking graveyard. Please kill me. Several creepy sounds everywhere that made hold unto Leo for dear life. He chuckled but did not complain.

“So the graveyard is the next…” Ciara said.

“I guess the next place we will be stopping is in the middle of a volcano.” She joked and Damien chuckled. I could not think straight. Leticia looked weak.

“Leticia, are you okay?” I asked.

“Yes, I am. You don’t need to worry. Just that portals take a lot of energy. That is why I need to rest to re-activate it. So we will be staying for seven minutes.” She said and sat down like she was not affected by the creepy sounds before she closed her eyes.

I breathed out and sat down. We moved forward.

I hope my mother is still alive. I looked at my dad and I could see how eager he was to meet her. I also can’t wait.
