Chapter 57: Chapter 57

Ariana's POV

"What do you mean by that?" I felt chilled, I had just encountered my mother's killer and couldn't identify him, "who's he?" I whispered in trepidation, seeming to know who the person would be but still needed confirmation, he waved his hands and I stared at the image projected before me, "the TV guy" I whispered, "his name is Dylan Sabastine" I looked at Eric, confused, "but what crime did my mother commit?"

"The rich don't care about the poor" tears trickled down my cheeks when I remembered how cruelly my mother had been killed, I would have died that day but was rescued by a hunter, the scars were still on my arm to prove my near death from the hands of that cruel man, "back in the days, witches and werewolves never get along, I guess he found out your mother was a witch"

"Was that enough reason to get her killed?" I wailed, "my mom would never hurt a flea. I'm going to avenge my mother's death, a life for a life and I'm going to do so right now"

"Wait, this is not the right..." I didn't allow him to finish his sentence as I quickly dashed off.

I stumbled upon my culprit outside gazing at the building, how did he know where I stay? he must be so desperate to get me killed and has come to finish what he had started, I walked towards him and he turned when he heard my footsteps, I was so blinded with anger and hatred for him, I dealt him two consecutive slaps, "I see you've come to finish what you started" he narrowed his eyes and it irked me to see his feigned ignorance, "what do you mean?"

"Do you think I wouldn't find out that you're a killer" I sob, my heart was heavy, how could he cruelly take away my mother from me, "you're a killer" I screamed at him, pounding and tearing at him, he did nothing to defend himself, just stood there and allow me to beat him, "how could you do that?"

"I would never do such a thing to you Ariana, I love you" he whispered but his words angered me the most, I see he want to go through emotions with me, well, that would not work because I'm gonna avenge my mother's death, "you'll pay for what you did, I promise you"

"Enough Ariana, go inside" Eric held me by my shoulders and turned me towards the direction of the house, "why are you stopping me, he's a killer and I'm going to kill him right now"

"Look at me Ariana, he'll pay for his deed, I promise you but not now, just go inside, I'll be with you shortly" I gave Dylan a deadly glare before running inside.

Samantha's POV

"What had just happened? That wasn't Ariana, she looked like she didn't recognize Dylan"

"Yea, Eric must have done something to her but you don't have to worry, Dylan has her hood and he'll find out where she is for sure"

I was confused at his words, he was good at stuff like that, confusing me, "how could he locate where she is right now with having just her hood" he shook his head, "you won't understand, I just don't want you to worry, everything will be sorted out" I nodded, believing him completely, I was rather scared of the so much trust I was having for him, I hope it won't be broken someday.

Dylan's POV

"What was that? I killed her mother? I watched as she ran in and then turned to face Eric, "what the hell have you done to her?

"She's only being herself, I did nothing, she was confused by you but not anymore"

I grabbed him, "if you hurt even a strand of hair on her head, I promise you, I'll rip your heart out" I gritted, fighting the urge to do just that right now, he scoffed, "I'm a wizard, you cannot harm me and Ariana is lost to you forever"

A cry wrenched out from inside of me, "no" I can lose everything but I cannot lose Ariana, I grabbed him by his throat, "watch what you say" he closed his eyes as if to cast a spell or something, and I acted, I brought out my fangs and bit his shoulder, he screamed in pain, "I am an alpha werewolf and a wizard cannot withstand the fangs of an alpha" I was bloodthirsty, my eyes on fire and my claws out, I raised it to dealt him a fatal strike,

"No!!!"

Ariana's scream halted my movement, she launched at me, pushing me aside, she ran to Eric who was lying on the floor bleeding profusely, "what has he done to you?" She wailed and glared at me, "murderer, you're disgusting, I'm sure your parents must be so embarrassed to call you their son" her words went straight to my heart like daggers, hearing such words from her was like torture, my wolf whimpered and recoiled in pain, I stood frozen for a moment and watched how she was panicking in behalf of Eric, I couldn't stop the single tear that ran down my cheeks, Dylan Sabastine never cry, in a flash, I left her there.

Ariana's POV

I dragged Eric inside, he was bleeding so profusely, what had that monster done to him? I tapped his cheeks, "please open your eyes and tell me what to do? Why did you have to confront him?"

"Your blood" he rasped and I was confused, "my blood?"

"I was bitten by him, and a werewolf fang on a wizard is fatal, only the blood of a witch or wizard can neutralize its poison"

"Alright, just tell me what to do"

"Take a chalk, draw a circle and place me within it, then walk around the circle seven times chanting the charachika mantra, then cut yourself and let the blood drop on the injury"

I did exactly as he had instructed, I slit my wrist and let the blood drop on his injury, he screamed in pain as smoke began to form and oozed out from his shoulders and then he passed out, probably from the pain, I was resolved to kill that killer, he won't get away with this, I'll make sure he pays for all his crime.

Dylan's POV

I held my chest as I staggered into my room, I was blinded with pain, that wasn't Ariana, I refuse to believe that, surely, there's something I could do to bring back my Ariana, "I won't let you get away with this Eric, you're using her so cruelly and you'll definitely pay for it" I gritted, I would do anything to take away those pains I had seen in her eyes, she now hates me because she believes I had killed her mother, all that are lies from Eric, he had so cleverly wove it around her head, I'll release her from his clutches, even if it cost my life.
