Chapter 51

Red Adamson ~

“By birth, you are a Vampyre, a Mutant Lycan and an elder Witch.” “The first ever trybrid of these powerful creatures in the history of the supernatural world. That’s why you are so special.” “Elena, your conception was a miracle.”

“Wait, I’m one of those things trying to rip out my heart?”

“I’m a Lycan?”

“I’m a Lycan???”

“No, a mutant lycan. They are far stronger in terms of everything compared to lycans. They are rare in nature but your father was one.”

I’m a vampyre, witch and a mutant lycan. It sounds exciting at the same time dreadful. I was familiar of course through stories of all their abilities and strengths and weaknesses but I never once knew I was one of them.

“This must be why you bought so many of books having these creatures and some others for me when I was younger, mustn’t it?”

“Yes. I knew one day, a day like this would come when I’ll have to tell you everything. Even though I dreaded that day, I also wanted you to be prepared for it.”

“But they were just story books.”

“And who do you think wrote those stories? Who do you think made supernaturals known in this world?” “It was the vampyres. Only they have the ability to go to and fro this world and ours and still have their abilities intact because….”

“They are within the limit of nature.” Gar said interrupting my mom. “Ryan told me.”

“They made it sound fictional but it’s as real as the hair on your head. It’s as real as anything. Mostly everything you read or heard about supernatural creatures is true.”

“Sooner or later, Cassius would declare war against earth and it is your destiny to bring peace and win the war. It is your destiny to bring and maintain balance once again to both worlds. It is your destiny to defeat Cassius. You are incredibly stronger than you can possibly imagine.” She said to me. “You are the savior.”

This is way, way more than I bargained for. My life was about to change and I knew it. It probably must have started to. Knowing for sure now that everything about Halloween is true makes me scared and knowing why Cassius wants my heart so bad made me even more afraid. I am his weakness, the only one capable of shattering his plans and he along with them.

“Taking all these in is not going to be easy.” I said placing my hand on my head.

“I know, but you can take it.”

“I’m guessing Flora isn’t your first name, is it?” I asked with an arched brow. “You must be the ‘Sofia’ Ryan didn’t want up about, right?”

“I am Sofia Xanders Claw, Queen of the vampyre kingdom back in the world where those lycans and all other supernatural creatures originate from – The Supernatural World but when I had to take you to this world for your own safety, I was forced to keep both our identities hidden and secret so I took up the name, ‘Flora Adamson’.” My mom added before a brief pause.

“That explains why Ryan kept on addressing her as ‘Your Majesty’.” Charlie said turning back with an expression on his face that made me know that he was enjoying things he was hearing.

I can see it in Charlie’s eyes. He doesn’t believe and he doesn’t want to believe what my mom is saying but I couldn’t see why? Strangely, I felt that all she was saying was the truth and nothing but it.

“What do you mean by you had to take me to this world for my own safety? What happened in the supernatural world that you had to bring me here? Cassius???” I asked.

“Yes, at your birth, he had soldiers all over the place you were born. He wanted you so badly that he was willing to go to any length to get you. The only way I could keep you from him was to take you to a world where he wouldn’t have followed me there. A world without magic – this one.” she answered.

“Elena, you are not from this world. You come from a land flowing with magic. You are a magical miracle. The reason why Cassius wants you so bad is because a prophecy foretold that you are his doom. Your powers and abilities rival his in every way. You have some that he can only but dream of and owing to his greed, he wants them all to be himself.”

The saying ‘either be the highest in the room or you are nothing’ must mean something to him. That must be his drive and his incentive.

“I need to tell you something.” I said before giving Gar an apologetic look.

“You can tell me anything.”

“I sang with Ryan at the Halloween festivities even when I knew clearly that you forbade me singing. It was right after that my arm started showing signs of lycanity.” “I’m sorry!”

“Dear girl, you have nothing to be sorry for. Let me explain.”

“You remember when you were little? When a wrecking ball almost crushed us both with as you sang that song? I never told you but that wasn’t a coincidence. Then, it was obvious that you were stronger than the spell. You were slowly breaking the spell but I didn’t want that to happen so I prevented you from ever singing again.”

“I wasn’t being cruel to you. I was just trying to protect you. You see, magic or more correctly, magical spells need some particulars before they can be casted. Particulars such as courage, strength, time, the correct words but more importantly, emotion. With just the right amount of emotion, a spell with little courage, strength and time could be casted in seconds sometimes unknowingly when the person is out of control.”

“Focus your emotion in the right direction and with your permission, spells would just cast themselves.”
