Chapter 16 Cynthia's curse

ULYSSES ALEXANDERS POV She continues to speak after taking another bite of the apple that she creates. She look on the window. "Queen Cendrea told me that after Cynthia's reborn, her curse will be lifted. Along with the superpower that she possessed is the curse where it will be uncontrollable. All of you knew that she should be half witch and half human. After the queen learned how king Daniel use her to establish Dawn kingdom, she focused on creating spells and grimoires that only her bloodline can use. Until she finally created a curse of reborn and immortality." "She knew that the price is lethal but she still gambles. Princess Cynthia will become a pureblooded witch. In exchange, anger, loneliness and hatred will be an uncontrollable emotion for Cynthia. That curse will consumed her emotions until what is left to her is anger, hatred and evilness. No one can kill her and she will surely put the whole world in a great chaos." she added. "Then you should've killed her when she is still a baby. She will bring death to all of us!" Estella. "Shut up!" Pricilla said to her. "If only I can. But seeing a beautiful baby and innocent one is not someone that I would be killed. I am hoping that one day, a man who will love her unconditionally will cancel her cursed." "It can be cancelled?" Pricilla. She nodded. "Then how can we help her?" Marko. The door opens and she enters. She smiled bitterly. "No one can do. All I have to do is to fulfill my role to the werewolves, my revenge and my promise that I will make aunt Clara the next queen of Dawn kingdom. While it didn't happens, I will be strong enough and put a curse on myself. When the very first day that I lose all my emotions and only anger and hatred left on me... I will turn to dust under the sun and die while I am still conscious." she said. "Cynthia...what are you talking about?" Clara. "NO ONE will love a woman like me aunt Clara. No one will dare to do so. Even George's love won't be as true as what it needed to cancel my curse. I believe in my heart. I will always be a person who will help and lend her hand. But like mother, I am still a person who will be consumed by her sadness. If that time comes...I better die just like her." "Are you sure you even have the guts to die?" "I am. I just need to finish my revenge. Help Dawn kingdom to have a good ruler, help the werewolf race and if I can help the witch and vampire clans then why not. After that, I will die myself." CYNTHIA MAXIMILLIAN POV Aunt Clara hugged me. I smiled and hugged her back. "From the start aunt Clara. Mother is not meant to live. Maybe we both share the same fate. There's nothing feel bad about." I said. "No. Let me cry. I can't lose you either. I already found myself in the darkness when queen Cendrea died and now you? You became my daughter." "I know that. I'm sorry if I am selfish, aunt Clara. But this is the best for everyone. I can't live without any purpose isn't it?" I said. I held her cheeks and wiped off her tears. Aunt Clara had been a crybaby when she saw my pain. Especially when father send me in the dungeon underneath the castle. I feel awful, my heart is like being twisted using a chain. This must be mother's curse. I tried to look okay so that she won't see me in pain. I don't want her to get worried. "Estella, I wanted to set things straight. I am not your enemy. Don't be stupid and get jealous over nothing. And this mark?" I said. I show his mark on me to everyone. I looked at her intently. "You don't have to worry. I will rejected him myself when the right time comes. Don't dare to hurt Windy, Wendy, Wendell, aunt Clara, aunt Miranda, Dallas and Daisy. I will kill you myself." I said. I left them in the room and decided to go in a tree. I am sitting on the highest tree on this mountain on the right side of the Skyfall castle. The snow suddenly falls, I stretch my hand and pin my back on the body of the tree. I could see the birds flying, the other trees and even the houses on the nearby villages. "Mother... this curse that you given to me. I know you wanted me to use this power to help the innocent beings from the four races. I will also save Dawn kingdom from father's hand. I will die secretly and alone. I will never be an evil witch just like how father said about you." I mumbled. Even it's getting colder, I still choose to lay down on this big branch of this tree. Fruits appears in my hand and I eat them while watching the snowfall. I stretch my body and close my eyes. I am a little bit sleepy and a dream comes to me about a certain calamity. "Run! Run! The slayers are here, escape with your sister." a man said. This is a vampire village. My eyes widened and my mouth was agape when I saw slayers who slaughtered vampires without considering their outcry. I look around, this is just a simple village. I can smell blood from animals. They even raise once for their blood supply. "Kill all these beast! From babies, children and elders. Everyone! No one should be left behind." "Noooooo!" I shouted. I fall down this tree. I touches my butt. I fall down after waking up on that nightmare, that's not a dream at all. I can't believe what I have seen. I turn my eyes on pink and try the magic that mother used in finding different villages. I have to find that village that I saw in that nightmare. I have to do something and try to help them as much as I can. "Pufftt." I suddenly spit blood on the snow. It feel like using my power in this kind of strong magic makes my body suffer. Maybe I have to do something to strengthen my body. I tried again. I saw a village on the East region. The same as what I have seen in my nightmare. I went back on the castle. Aunt Clara and Miranda is on the garden while the kids are playing with the new born cub. "Where did you go?" aunt Clara. I pointed the tallest tree on the mountain at the right side of the castle. They sigh and give me that worried face. "My aunties, don't worry. This little witch is a strong woman. You don't have to worry about me, okay?" "I can't help it, Cynthia. We are indeed safe here better than in Dawn kingdom but..." aunt Miranda. "I am okay. I have been rejected for many times because I am weak and a crybaby. I am used to that." "Cynthia..." aunt Clara. The tiger and the kids came. "We will never do that to you." they said in chorus. "Okay. Okay. I hear you everyone." I said. I created a tattoo on their left shoulders. "What is this?" they ask. "I have something to do in a certain place. Maybe I will be there for couple of days or might as well in weeks. This mark will protect all of you just in case." I look up and I saw their group on the window in last floor of the palace. They're looking on us. "Where are you going? I'll come with you." aunt Clara. I smiled and held her hand. "Don't worry about me, aunt Clara. You are needed here more than I can. Please, be careful until I came back, okay?" I said. She sighs. "Okay. Be careful on that place. But...why are you going in there? Is there anything wrong?" "Nothing." I said. But I knew both of them didn't believe me. I went to my room and take the box that mother gave to me. Then I knock on their meeting room. The door opens. I get inside. "I will be leaving for an unknown days. I'll be back as soon as I can." I said without any courtesy. "And where are you going? To meet that knight?!" "Estella! Stop being so childish." Pricilla. I bend down my body and level my face to her. "Don't dare to hurt the others, okay?" I said. When I stood up, I change my clothes, my hair and eyes. ULYSSES ALEXANDERS POV She change her appearance. Pricilla talk to her. "Where are you going?" she ask. She smiled. "Don't worry, this silly witch won't be cheating her alpha. Something...important. Anyways, I'll see everyone as soon as possible. Bye bye...?" I held her wrist and look at her. She hiding something. She look at me and give me a puzzled look. I accidentally touch her box once and it electrifies me. That's why I knew that I can't have it. "Where are you going?" I said in firm tone. She sighs and even roll her eyes. "Your ears is much extraordinary than humans isn't it? I told them that I am not going to meet George. You hate me being silly and weak, but I will follow orders from you as long as it is good. Don't worry, I am not going anywhere and create chaos." she said. "You are hiding something. I can sense it." I said. "Really? Is it because I have your mark so you cam sense things about me? Look, I already knew why you choose that direction where we need to walk through the mythical forest. It's because you want me to die there or beg you in saving me in exchange of rejecting you. I am not that naive, Ulysses. But I trust my hunch, you are not a bad wolf that's why I still trust you. Look, kill me when you guys learn that I put Skyfall into danger. Deal?" I look at her, she is asking for a shake hand. I just look at her in questioned expression. "Just tell me where are you going and what the hell are you planning to do?" I said in a firm tone. "I have a nightmare while sleeping on a tree. I saw a village being slaughtered by a madman group. They're beasts slayers. They're going to attack all the vampires and I have to do something okay? Those slayers are just blood seeking and bad persons. Just let me go." she said. My eyes widened. "What did you just say?" I ask. She take back her hand and look at me. "Keep my family safe." she said and teleport herself. "She is your mate, you can find her." Vincent. "Let her be. If she died then its her fault." I said and look at the window. That witch, she is no longer the one that I bring from that castle. I think the curse that Clara talks about had started consuming her. I gulp when Cendrea's face flashes on my reflection on the mirror. Damn it! Two weeks had passed and she haven't came back. I don't know if I have to be alarmed at this moment. The door opens, they enter. "Bad news. A vampire village from the East region has been slaughtered! They said no one survives. Wait a minute, what if Cynthia went to that village?"
