Chereads / Badass Witch / Chapter 40 - Thousand Years Ago

Chapter 40 - Thousand Years Ago

Damon POV

Why should I be a wolf? Today is another full moon and it is horrible. They say that being a wolf gives us the power but it doesn't. It gives us excruciating pain such that the entire body is bursting.We fracture oir bones multiple times in a single night just because of this curse. Yes it is a curse. My father, the alpha of the pack says that it is a blessing. He says that we are the direct descendants of the earth and we should endure the blessing we have received. I feel it is shit. I am eighteen year old now and at the age of sixteen years, the young children triggers the curse to become a wolf every month. I did it too but now I don't want to do it anymore.

It was already evening and I dont want to roam in the forest being a wolf. People, especially those witches curse us everytime we cross their land being a wolf. So I took the iron chains to stuck me to the wall which will protect me from those humiliating torture of witches.

" you pathetic man... you are here with those chains again?" That is my father.

He came angrily towards me. He things that I am week and abomination to his family. He even thinks that I am not capable of being the next alpha of the pack. I bit my lips in rage though I didn't retaliate. He came forward and took the iron rod and beat me with the same and left. He stopped at the kith of the cave and said,

" I want you looking right at the moon on the ground before you turn into wolf", he said.

His voice was harsh. He calls himself a warrior and believes in suppressing all our powers until we bring out the beast in us. This is too much now and I dont want to turn into a wolf again. I turned behind and ran towards the witches coven.

Those witches are the real curse and still don't undergo this excruciating pain. I will kill them all and if I fail,they will kill me, end of the story.

I ran amongst the woods on the dried leaves towards the coven. It was still evening but has already turned dark. The moon will be out any minute and I want to reach towards the coven before I become a wolf or I will not be able to enter through their invisible walls around their coven.

However, while I was running, i heard someone say huge spells with a lot of noise behind. I decided to follow the sound and walked in that direction. I finally reached the spot and saw a black skinned man holding a snake surrounded with thousand of snakes. His other hand has a knife and he slaughtered the snake in his hand with the knife. He was saying some spells and the area around him was burning.The other snakes had just one way to a peaceful death and that was in his hand.

I was so stunned that I forgot that I have to hide. The man immediately stopped ans looked at me.His eyes were red and his nerves were bursting. I was baffled watching him being stable. I bit my lips and looked at him without trying to hide again.

" who are you" he asked.

" I.. I am Damon, son of the alpha", I told him.

He nodded and asked me again,

" what are you doing here? The man asked.

He must be twenty or in the same age as me. Yet he seemed sensible and was not a brat like me.

"can I ask you the same question... what are you doing with all those snakes?" I questioned.

He wore a gloomy look and sat in his place. With disappointment yet a bit of vengeance in his eyes he stated,

" I was shunned my my family and hence they extracted my powers. Now to get a revenge I have to be more powerful they are and hence I am performing black magic ", he said.

I nodded and contemplated over the matter.The black magic I understood required sacrifice and hence he is killing those snakes. I want a revenge from the witches too who keep on poking their nose in wolf business trying to occupy a land that belongs to mother earth but not them specifically. I closed my fists and gulped my saliva. I looked in the sky and realized that I have very less time before I fracture my bones to turn into a werewolf. Finally I replied,

" you need sacrifice... you can kill me, however I want you to take down the witches, kill them all", I said.

I sounded resolute though my heart was beating fast but I had no time to think a lot. That man was equally stunned. His eyes were wide and he was staring me like a hungry forced beast.

" well... boy, I don't understand why you want to do this but trust me, your sacrifice must be worth it" he said.

" it's totally worth" I said without taking any other second.

I stepped in the fire circle within the snakes. None of the snakes dare hurt me. They were all manipulated or compelled by some dark magic. I went and sat in front of him and said,

" do it ... quick, I will transform soon", I said.

The man nodded and took the blade as he aid the spell,

" vitara kirasa sacrisa chaso vista...." he repeated it again and again and kept the blade on my head.

My heart beat transformed into a harsh flowing water as I was unable to count them and..... I died.
