Chapter 47: Chapter 47

—Incident between Corazon and Rogues

The year 1995

Amanda was held tightly by Corazon to protect her from the savage rogues. Her sister Alena is with her husband inside the car who was glaring fiercely at her.

Her daughter is very precious to her so if anyone hurts her, they will kill her first. She can't let them gave her to the enemies?

"Hand over that girl or else, we will attack and kill you?" One of the rogues shouted at her.

She looked around and saw many of them. Can she protect her? Can she save the only Luna of the packs?

Alena and Harold stepped outside the car.

"Don't be stubborn my sister! It's for both of us? She is Lucas' daughter so why not give it to him?" She told her older sister.

Corazon gritted her teeth and wrapped her daughter Amanda tightly.

"No! I thought you're my sister! You lied to me!" Corazon tells them.

Harold laughed at her.

"Look, there's no way out. Give her to Lucas and everything will be fine. Rogues won't hurt us anymore!" Alena added.

Corazon can't do it. He's a monster and he will do everything to take her child with him. She must protect her only daughter. Anika or Amanda will protect her. If she knew from the start that her sister will betray her, maybe she didn't let her adopt Amanda.

"Then if you're too selfish, let's start the war!" Her sister screamed.

In just an instant, both of them shifted in their true form. They became grey wolves. Rogues are there to attack her too.

One over many. How can she fight them? Her daughter is crying. She doesn't know her.

"Mom, help! Mommy help!" Amanda cries and called for Alena.

Corazon brought Amanda to her sister when she was only four months old. Harold has a good reputation to keep her daughter safe, she let them adopt her. She became Anika Perez and was the only daughter of two rich businessmen but when Corazon heard that Alena merges with Lucas, she came back and stole her daughter from the school.

Anika doesn't remember her as her mom.

She caresses her child's hair and back. She can't help but cry.

"It's me your real mom. Don't cry okay. I will protect you." She whispered but Anika struggled from her.

She kicked and punch her.

"No! I want my mom and dad! Give me to them!" Anika told her.

Corazon was about to run when someone jumped on her. It's the female rogue who leads the first attack. Every one of them moved forward and she saw that even Alena and Harold were been seize too.

Corazon tried to save them but it's too late. She failed to control her instinct and power. She let out huge flames to kill them all and she swept even Alena and Harold too.

She had no idea that the female rogues shot her on her belly. She stumbled on the ground. Anika keeps crying. It was like a dream. She saw people watching her and laughing at her. She was in the middle of the street with bloodstained in her hands.

"She's a monster! Caged her to death!" That was what they shouted.

She tried to search for her daughter but she's nowhere to be found.

Someone came over and clutch her cheeks tightly.  She's glaring at her like an animal.

"No one saw it! You never tell anyone or else I'll kill your daughter!" She said those hideous words to Corazon before they take her to the Heartifilia Asylum.

The year 2021

"You're a shapeshifter?" Ariana asked Anika's mom.

Corazon transformed as a human again.

"We're not like the full moon shifters because we're skin shifters wolves. You are the special one that's why I protected you!" She said.

What does she mean that Anika is the most eccentric wolves in their packs. Does she mean that she's not an ordinary grey wolf? When I shifted into a werewolf, they didn't react even Devorah, meaning I was also like her?

Why did King Marius give me the bottle? Does the plan all of this? Is he Anika's...wait it's a long time ago? He can't be his father. He's dead and had no child.

My head is bursting out. I don't know how to get back anymore. If I'll help Anika's mother out from here and tell the police that she wasn't the real monster, maybe I can clean my name. They can't harm if the true heiress will come back. I am Anika and they had no proof that I am fake. We had similarities and no one will believe them now that I found her real mom.

"Help me! I know this may sound crazy but maybe it's time for me to tell you the truth!" Ariana had no choice but to tell her that she was not Anika.

"Ahem..." I stop. If I tell her who am I, she will ask for more. I had to act first so that I can gather more information from her.

If Denise gives me this address meaning she knew this place for how long?

"How's in the mansion? Who takes good care of you? Was it Celine?" She looks me in the eyes.

I can see how she didn't do a blink.

I nod my head.

"Yes, aunt Celine was kind to me. She's the one who helps me in the company. Why, what about Aunt Celine?" I asked her. I get curious why she mentioned Anika's Aunt.

"She's not your aunt. She's the one who locked me here! She's the female rogue who killed my sister and your uncle. She had a son called Sebastian." Seems like she's not crazy.

Everything makes sense now. Why did Sebastian want to kill me? Even Devorah? Did Anika know that all of her so-called packs are doubling across her?

I quickly stood up and bid goodbye to her. I had to know more. I have to meet Denise. I have many questions for her.

"I gotta go. I promise I'll come back." I said and on behalf of Anika, I kissed her forehead and told her how much I miss her.

Now that Corazon Gables was Anika's real mother, I am now near to the truth and reality. I have to clear my name and take over the packs. I will fight until the end.

I walked out when I saw someone in the reception area. He's talking to the old lady. He looks familiar.

I put on my eyeglasses and walked fast when an old lady called me.

"Thanks for the visit! Is everything went well, ma'am?" She asked me and I simply nod my head and go.

I heard him asking about me.

"Is she the visitor at room 100? Who is she?" He asked the receptionist like he was related to the patient.

I didn't go. I stayed behind the door while peeping on them.

I heard the old lady replied.

"She told me that she was her relative. I thought she's her daughter. They look like a lot!" She mumbled and when I set my eyes on the guy, I just realized that he was someone I know since young.

"John?" She can't believe that John knew this place.

How long did he know that Anika's mom is staying here?

Or was it Anika only didn't know anything about everyone?
