Chapter 16 - The final Choice

Skuld ran until she collapsed, she couldn't believe it after all these years she has been lied to. This whole time they both knew and didn't tell her. She shifted back to her human form and found some energy to manifest clothes on. Tears spilled down her cheeks as the conversation ran through her head. Eka knew Kevin was her mate, Eka hid the truth about their parents to her. She shook her head trying to push away the pain of betrayal. Anger filled her as she sat there replaying every word. {That's good princess! Let that anger take control and stop fighting it!} the deep voice threatened in her head startling her. She looked around, wondering if this was just another damn dream. "Leave me alone!" Skuld lashed out with a deep growl. the hairs on her neck stood up as she scanned the area. {I told you, you are very special. We can help each other} Skuld got to her feet and stood defensively as she tried to deepen her scan. Nothing out of the ordinary was around her which just pissed her off more "I don't want your help! You killed my parents!" she lashed out again. A deep laughter filled her head. {You really don't remember do you?} the mysterious voice echoed followed by more laughter. Skuld growled some more not understanding what was so funny, honestly she was ready to kill the voice once she found him when all of the sudden the laughter stoped {If you would like to know the truth then you need to work with me, in return I'll stop threatening the pathetic lives in your sanctuary} the voice stated, she could picture a devilish grin in her mind. Skuld stood in silence, the wind running through her hair. Skuld bit her lip as the painful choice rang in her head. Would she really be able to remember what really happened or would this just be a trick. Either way it could protect everyone here, even if she was mad at the two she felt betrayed by. She didn't want them hurt or worse. {I'm not a very patient person, you either come willingly or by force. I'll get the answer from you tonight} the voice mocked with a growl in her head. Skuld dropped to her knees as the emotions weakened her body. She yelled out as the painful emotions took over her body. She couldn't move, from the shock of everything that has happened. Deep down she was hoping to wake up from another dream but this seemed to be her reality. She curled up in a ball as now her choices stuck in her head, she felt like darkness was going to swallow her up regardless what choice she made.

It felt like she was in this state for eternity. Her tears finally dried leaving her eyes swollen. She finally picked herself up from the ground when she caught the scent of both Kevin and Fyn getting close. "I want to be alone" she growled out. "You were alone, now it's time to finish talking" Fyn's voice broke through as he walked between the trees, Kevin was close behind him in his wolf form. "What's more to say?!" Skuld lashed out. "You knew we were mates, you knew our parents died because of me!" she shit a glance at Kevin "Hell even you knew that and neither of you even tried to tell me the truth!" she growled under her breath "I have been left in the dark! Did Ali know as well?" she scoffed at the thought. knowing she already knew the answer. Skuld shook her head as she stood up. "I already know what I'm going to do, so just do what you do best and lecture me and leave!" her voice started to break as she composed herself. Fyn lifted a brow as he crossed his arms. "We kept it from you because we thought it was over with, we.."he trailed off then cleared his throat "I didn't see the sense of hurting you more. I did not want you to feel in any way that their death was your fault. you were just a child" He studied his sister before continuing "And for Kevin yes I knew, it's been very clear since we were kids." Kevin glared at Fyn before bowing his head. Skuld wondered what he had just told her Eka before returning her gaze to Fyn. "When you came back to us.. you were different" Fun finally spoke again. "You didn't remember any of us, even Kevin. You about killed him for getting to close to you." Fyn growled out as he remembered the past.
