Chapter 13 - In my veins

Chapter 13

I kept looking at my hands as if they could give me all the answers I was looking for. For a moment I could feel fire flow through my blood, I still didn't know what I had done, it was as if my body knew exactly what to do... As if it was running through my veins.

I shook my head to clear my thoughts and focus on what mattered most to me at the moment, I made my way to the sonatano that I still don't know how it happened that it became three times its size to be able to house a large wolf chained to the ground, he caressed the surface of the wall feeling the warm rock, this is what I meant by the sudden change of the basement, in addition to the size it is now completely a dungeon in all its letters, covered with rock, shackles on the walls and cages in much of the place.  I left my daily study to focus on the black wolf, still on the ground, who was looking at me with fury trying to free himself from his chains, I looked at his eyes looking for a bit of the beautiful girl who cared about me and her pack... But there was nothing of that, just a void where there used to be love and now just the absence of a soul.

I needed to know what had happened to him, I was sure it had something to do with what he had told the morning three days ago, it had been three days since that moment, only Kay and I were in this place, I can't blaming Cameron for not being here, watched as his sister ripped off his father's neck, killed his mother, and tore half his pack apart.

— ¿What happened to you?  — I knelt in front of her and passed a hand over her head caressing her dark fur, I was not worried what could do something to me, since I have verified very well that these chains are not going to release her for nothing. While I was still immersed in my thoughts about Dayana, Kay small body came to one side of me, she hit the ground twice with one of her legs and I saw the book appear under her, I looked at it without wanting to open it, I had tried to look for one solution in there from day one, but there was nothing.  Kay kept hitting the book trying to get me to open it, I looked at her tiredly — There's nothing there, Kay. If I had already seen it — she shook her head in denial — No what?  I don't understand what you're trying to say — She kept making signs towards the book, so I reluctantly opened it — See?  There is nothing? — He approached the book and with his paws he tried to turn the pages with little success, so a little more intrigued I helped him turn the pages, we reached the end of the book and I dropped my shoulders with fatigue, it was just a waste of time, I started to get up but Kay threw her claws on my leg, I jumped from the sudden pain and the surprise of her attack — Daughter of... — I was about to tease her by the hair but she kept pointing at the paste of the book — There's nothing there!  — I yelled at her full of frustration, ignoring me she happened to try to tear the inside of the book but it was very hard for her claws, I threw myself on the floor next to her and in front of the wolf, I took the book and with anger what already I was carrying it, I opened it and threw it to the other side of the room, I took my legs and brought them to my chest crying from the frustration that I had from the first day she came into our life, I cried for not being able to return Kay to her state normal, I cried because seeing the black wolf in front of me was a reminder of what I could not protect, I saw his eyes and thought about what could be and now never will be.

Kay's meow was getting louder with the intention of getting my attention, I raised my head to look at her trying to drag the book in front of me again, even with tears in my eyes I approached her and took the book, when it Raise off the ground you can see how the internal part of it was completely torn, it must have broken when hitting a shackle on the wall. I frowned when I saw that there were strange letters engraved inside, I removed the remaining paper to see more clearly, I could not understand anything he was saying, it was a mixture of signs and letters in no apparent order, I sat down again in front of Dayana with the book now in my hands. The whole sheet was full of these strange letters and symbols, I looked at Kay who was next to me seeing the sheet as puzzled as I was, I looked up and Dayana saw it, she was not reading it, her eyes moved over the letters with understanding.

Time to put into practice what I have been studying these days, I got up from the ground, took a little air and fixed my eyes on the wolf, "Post bestiam et ad pristinum" purple threads began to wrap around his body, he was moving strongly As if she knew what I was doing to her, with attempts to jump trying to free herself from the chains, she made a plaintive sound, in a short time I could see Dayana kneeling in front of me, before the same chains could reach her. previously held they took her by the wrists and ankles anchored her to the wall with a strong blow, I was startled by the noise and ran towards her on the wall, before I could touch any part of her body she let out a loud guttural growl from the bottom of her throat that made me stop my steps, she kept her head down so I couldn't see her face, Kay twitched behind me snorting at Dayana on the wall, her fists were tightly clenched pulling to the side cont  stranger from the chain trying to get out.

— Free me you damn witch! — I took a step back surprised, it was not Dayana at all, strands of her blonde hair were paying to her face because of the sweat that covered her, I could see how her fangs were clenched with the same force as her fists trying to reach to me, their roars were so strident that I had to cover my ears just like Kay behind my legs.  At last I could see her eyes, they were like a spiral that changed between gray and black, she was still there.

After a few minutes of seeing her attempts to free herself from her at last she got tired, she dropped her body without energy on the ground and her chains automatically loosened still holding her captive but with more freedom.

— Morgana... — She said in a low murmur with her voice muffled by having her face against the ground.  I quickly approached and lowered myself to his height, I took his face with my hands, it was boiling, his eyes were tired and the gray that always enchanted me, I made a pretense of getting up but I quickly took hold of the wrists — Do not go please, I do not know how long I can keep it inside — He made gestures of pain and held me tightly as if I was going to fade from one moment to another, but the truth was that I was afraid of losing her and at the same time having her here — You don't have to take me off the chains, no matter what I tell you, don't do it, if you do, there will be death — His eyes trembled with fear — I don't know what will happen to me, but Morgana, I want you to know that I love you, I know which is rushed, we have only known each other a few months, but we never know when the last time we can say I love you is going to be.

At this point my eyes were clouded with tears, I brought my face close to hers — Dayana, I love you too, I promise you that I will find out what is happening to you, we will fix it and then it will only be you and I will? — I left a delicate kiss on her lips before feeling her hands on my chest throwing me forcefully across the room, I looked up at her and saw how the claws of her hands made strong marks where I was before, the chains They slammed against the wall again hard, their now empty black eyes staring at me.

— I will never let you have a happy ending — A macabre smile with sharp fangs adorned her face, I imitated her gesture — ¿Did you know that the story of the villains is much more entertaining than that of the heroes? because monsters are not born, they are created and I never wanted to be a hero.
