<<<Annika>>>

~The truth is staring at you in the face. If you believe the lies, rumors and myths about me. Me, myself and my species will become extinct. I ask you for something other than tolerance and for me to have my place is this world in which I play a valuable part. Am not a murder, deceiver, lier, villain. ~

Every where was black the walls the ceiling except the floor that was white.

"Come my child"a voice said the voice sounded so peaceful and pure

"Who are you.... Where are you"I asked turning around and saw a light.

I walked following the path.i found myself in a beautiful garden with waterfall. It was a really beautiful sight to see.

A very cute little rabbit came to me hopping around my legs. It stopped in front of me nudging its head forward

"Oh I should follow you?" I asked as if expecting a response or an answer either ways I followed it.

It led me to the bank of the river just were the waterfall flowed down. Across was a woman. She was so white. So plain and yet beautiful. Her hair white as snow, her face round as the moon of the night, and her eyes blue as the morning sky without clouds.

It was so enchanted and compelling I was drawn to her. I was already coming forward when her looked up from the flower that was blooming. And smiled at me.

"My child, my light, my tribrid"she said.
"Annika"
"Annika"
I felt a tap on my arm.

"Annika wake up". Immediately I jolted up. I blinked rapidly trying to lighten my eyelids cause they felt really heavy on me.

"Wh-what happened"I asked looking around and I saw both familiar faces and strange faces then my eyes landed on Kairo and everything flashed back.

"Kairo am so sorry I don't know what came over me"I apologized. But he didn't say anything.

Then I relaxed when I felt Jaxtyn's arm around me.I looked forward am caught a glimes at my mama she had this worried look on her and I knew she either wanted an explanation or wanted to tell me something. My guess is probably the two.

"Can someone what happened before till this moment and why don't tried to kill my son"a voice said i turned to the person that spoke, he looked like the older version on Kairo and Jaxtyn making me think of what Jaxtyn would be when he becomes older.

"I can try to explain to my own understand"Coren said. I farrowed my brows how can he explain? Does he know already. Everyone took a sit while Jaxtyn stayed beside me with his hands around me.

"Am sorry"he whimpered into my ears. I looked up at Him. He was truly sorry and probably also ashamed.

"Its okay am good now. And am sorry I almost killed your elder brother" I said and Jaxtyn nodded and kissed the top of my head.

Coren got on explaining about a universal pain I used on Axel. And that earned a surprise look from Jaxtyn mom and dad. Coren continued about how Kairo thought I was just using Jaxtyn to have revenge on him killing my clan. Which made me realize that he knew I was a sorcerer.

"So what is your part in all this"the alpha asked my mama

"I am her mother"she said quietly but then she stood up and added"and also the oldest and the third most power sorceress in France"mama said and I gasped.

"You are Annalise Astaril?" Jaxtyn mom asked"we thought you vanished with your people"

"I am here to reveal what truly happened that bloody day" mama said.

"Then go on"the alpha said. I could see it was a very touchy subject for him.

"We are not complete"mama said

"Yes we are these is my whole family unless you want my beta,third and fourth in command here I don't think we are missing anyone"

"Yes we are missing the vampire king"

"Why do we need the vampire king"Jaxtyn asked curiously and to be totally honest I was to. From the moment my mother revealed she was the third most powerful sorceress that was in France.

"We need the vampire king because its part of Annika's truth to"she said. And everybody turned to me.

"Hey I don't know anything am as confused as you all are"I said raising my hands up in surrender.

"I have already told Soren to come over but he said he had things doing and would make it this night"she concluded

"Why are we waiting for one man its not like its the whole Pelleliu"Kairo said

"Well actually it is.. I need all the Pelleliu family?"mama said. I felt someone gaze on me I looked up at jaxtyn but he was listening to my mama. I searched round then found his dad staring at me. Honestly it made me very uncomfortable.

"Why do you look familiar"he asked. And everybody turned to me. "I feel I have seen you somewhere or personally I feel I have see those eyes somewhere before? Have I ever cross part with you Annika?"he asked

"Um... No sir?"I said nervously leaning towards Jaxtyn for comfort. He just nodded

"That's part of my revelation. The reason you feel you have seen her before is part of what I want to say"

"Damnation say it already"

"I can't I need the vampire family in here first that means we need to wait for evening. In the mean time annika I need to talk to you"she said walking g up to me.

"You will do no such th—"before the alpha could complete his statement mama flicked her wrist and we disappeared

∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆

<<<In Westville school >>>

... During lunch time....

"Hey Cosmina have you seen Annika and Jaxtyn or either one of them?" McKenzie said to Cosmina.

Which Cosmina found highly werid.

"I don't know and besides why are you talking to me we are not friends and can never be" Cosmina said way to bluntly.

"So when are they going to be back" McKenzie asked as if not hearing a word Cosmina had said to her. Cosmina rolled her eyes and slammed her locker shut.

"Where You heading to"

"Home"

"Why?"

"Well—um my father traveled and we are throwing him a welcome party and why am I explaining myself to you?"

McKenzie skipped over to a jock guy across the school lawn. As Cosmina got to her car and drove off.

∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆

We appeared back into her room at our house.

"Nika I want you to answer me honestly"she said gripping my shoulders and it hurts more than it sounded.

"Um.... Okay mama just tell me what you want to know and I will answer you instead of you hurting my shoulders"I said removing her hands from my shoulders.

"What is this"she asked pulling my sketch sketchbook booking from a drawer. I flinched at the sight of her holding it. It was personal to me, even though I didn't understand what the drawings were even though I actually wanted to ask her about it initially.,

"How and where did you find"I said going to get it from her. She held the book up in the air with her right hand and used her left hand as a stop sign for me.

"Mama!?"

"I found it on the floor beside your bed"she answered. I just have dropped it when Jaxtyn woke up from his rest.
"Mama. You can't have that. Pls give it back"

"I will give it back once you tell how you began drawing all this things"she said flipping through the pages

"Its hard to explain mama and besides you won't understand"I said breathing out"just give it back"I said stretching my hands for it

"I won't understand. I am a millennium years older than you. I have seen what you can't see I a thousand years and I won't understand your drawings?"she said already getting really mad and angry.
"Ok answer theae ones then"she said and I nodded.

"When did you start drawing"

"Sometime after I started drawing"I answered truthfully

"How do you start? Do you just sit down and draw or what?"

"Yoh won't understand, I don't even know how—"then it happened again. I eyes went white as snow. No pupils at all. I walked slowly to my aunty and grabbed the book. I sat down on the floor and began drawing.
I was in this position for about three and a half hour. Then I blinked and came normal. I stared down at what I drew. I gasped or I thought i gasped but I turned a d saw my mama's mouth opened. It was the woman in my trance. She was in the garden where I met her before.

"Do you know her?" I asked

"Yes. That.... She is the moon goddess"my mama said

"Moon goddess?... How was the moon goddess in my dream this morning?"

"This morning?"

"Yeah this morning when I fainted I saw her in this exact place. Why did she meet me"

"The mood goddess only appears to her children that is the wolf clan"mama explained

"If she only appears to the wolf how come you know about her and why do I know about het o mean why did she appear to me?"

"Sorcerer's are generated from the wolf clan"she said pattinthe side of her bed. I furrowed my brows cause I didn't understand the hell of what she was saying.

"Sorcerer's are generated from the wolf clan we can't transform into wolf but the magic powers that wolves are meant to posses were give to us sorcerer's that's why we sorcerers are permanent allies with the wolves as they are to us"she finished explaining.

"So that's why she appeared to me"I said reasonably

"That's half part of the reason. There are things you need to know about your self, your past and your future".

"What!? Mama what are you talking about?"

"You will find out more this night"she said I was about forcing her to talking when my phone rang
*curses*

A:hello?

Jaxtyn:Sweetest where are you guys the Pellelieu are here?

A:oh um we are on our way right now.
I nodded to my mama. "The vampire family are here as called"I said and held her hands as she transported us back to the mansion.

We were back to the living room but thing with larger circumference of people. I turned around scanning the faces and I saw all blondes wow. A room filled with blondes. Then I saw Cosmina beside a grown woman. I rushed to her.

"Hey Cos how are you it has been like what forever since we have seen I have a lot to tell—"

"Settle down young lady and led listen to what Annalise has to say"a blonde man said. I nodded but mouthed to Cosmina "later".

I went to take my seat beside Jaxtyn and his arms immediately went around my waist. My mama stood at the front os every jaxtyn's family sat at the right side of the living room and the vampire family sat that the middle while Jaxtyn, I and Aria sat at the left side. We all patiently sat down waiting for mama to talk.

"We are all here for the big revelation I have on Annika Astaril"she started as she looked at me as she said my name at the end.

"But her real name is Annika—"she paused again and looked at jaxtyn father. He too looked down right confused. How does my name have to do with anything.

"Her real name—your real name is Annika Massoudieu" she said.

And it was as if she stopped time as she said Massoudieu, time practically froze and stopped even the air it was so quiet in the living room you could hear a earring hook drop. Then everyones eyes dropped on me even Aria.
 
  Did I do something wrong?

"Who is Masso—"I started to say but was cut short by an angry no enraged alpha

"THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!! IS THIS SOME KIND OF SICK JOKE TO YOU? HUH!!!  ANNALISE!!???"Jaxtyn's father thundered. I think I felt an earthquake... Or is it just me?

"Calm your tail alpha and let her explain"the blonde man said

"EXPLAIN WHAT? ITS OBVIOUSLY A LIE"he thundered.
I swear I resisted the urge to rol my eyes at him. But i to duely wanted to know who Massoudieu is since the name made every one So tensed up is, with the way Mr alpha here is going about it only the gods know.

Everyone still had their ones on me jaxtyn was looking at me and Cosmina and Aria where staring at me like I had just done something miraculous?

"l'amour sit down let the sorceress talk, she has been in hiding for thousand years and shows up with Massoudieu daughter let her explain"jaxtyn's mom said probably trying to talk sense into her mate

"That is the point mon précieuse she just appeared after all her clan disappeared like they haven't excited at all now she shows up with Massoudieu daughter that is not at all reasonable"

"l'amour she has his eyes"jaxtyn's mom said sternly "and you also curious to know how and why and don't lie to me I can't feel it through the mate bond so let the sorceress explain her self like Soren said calm your tail  and let her explain l'amour"she said sternly as she dragged on the l'amour word and leaving to room for further argument.

Mr Alpha glared at my mama who has being reasonably silent through out the argument and sat down Giving my mama a little curt to continue but still glaring at her.

"She is the Annika Massoudieu the daughter of Caius Massoudieu and Oaklynn Pellelieu"she said looking at the vampire family.

But instead everybody's attention was on me. But my own attention was on Cosmina that means she was related to me.

"Does that me you are related to me?"Cos asked and mama nodded.

Then suddenly I burst into a humorless laugh.

"Wait so what you are you are telling me is that you are not my mom and my real mom is oaklienn?"

"Oaklynn"the woman bedside Cosmina said. And I turned to her.

"Perhaps I should start from the beginning."mama said squatting down on the floor.

∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆

It was back at dated. Caius Massoudieu the alpha of the Sliver Shash park strongest wolf park in France and most part continent.

Caius ruled with grace and humility. Just like his father Gaius. But Caius was a better replica to Gaius. The park had food, water, shelter and he also above all made sure the birth delivery of every she wolf was carefully delivered my a sorcerer because the birth rate of the wolf span is of low rate the most of the pups giving to them is four.

The celebration that comes with the birth of on pup in a wolf family is to the extreme.

Since the park was flowing with joy and happiness. Caius was getting feral by the decades pass.

He had no mate.

Being over 500yrs old with no mate to bring light to his part darkness began clouding him bit by bit

Mama stopped to watch me. Jaxtyn still had his arms around me which still gave me a sense in belonging but my face remained expessionlessand void of any emotion. Mama continued her story.

Caius became highly desperate to find his mate he was becoming weaker by the decades unable to control his wolf because you will need an alpha more stronger and more powerful than Caius to tame his feral wolf. He became weak to his self but not to his park but he knew it would a while for them to know their alpha has become a weakling and seek to over throne him because even having a good positive park there were still people who wanted his tittle.

AXEL.

The thought of my father bring weak and unable to protect himself was like a swords stabbing on my guts. That name again Axel. It has cone up way to many tines and they are not good things and just the thought of him trying to hurt my dad made me re-wish i had killed him on the floor last three days.

I clenched my hands into a fist. Jaxtyn and Aria's fingers slipped into mine and held it. I didn't even stop to notice mama had stopped her story.

I looked up and meant my eyes with black and golden ones.
            Jaxtyn's father
It was as though we had the same thought of killing Axel with our bare hands. And I had to admit I didn't know whose urge was more than the other. 

But still at that mama continued her line.

To find his mate he sent out an invitation to throw a party. He named it trouver un amour.. Which means finding love one. He held it on the last Friday of that month August.

Caius was about giving up until the last Friday of that month she finally came.Esme that's her name as hrr name beaned that is how she was. Beloved by Cauis. Her emerald eyes green and filled with life with wasn't hard for Cauis to fall  fir her.

She walking in looking utterly confused about the scene. it seemed as tho she didn't want to be there and worst of all she didn't want anything to do with Cauis. Cauis tried his ways on her flaunting his tittles and riches to her. No one would pass up the chances of being the Luna of the strongest park.

But as the moon goddess would have dhr finally accepted him. One the day of the mating ritual she was found dead. One would have thought she died months ago and was left to decay there cause the worms and earth insect infected all over her.

She paused on her story. The look on the alpha's face was of surprise and anguish.

"This is a lie. Its not true,  none of this is true"he barked

"Dad!"

"Alpha"

"l'amour"

Every one in the room barked at him at his unruly insult. Mama just kept quiet as tho feeling guilty for what had happened in the past.

"Its a lie. Caius would never hid something as important as his mate from ne our any one in the clan" he said"how come no one knew about his mate?"

"Because Esme wasn't ready to be a Luna she was quiet she didn't want to be known till after the mating ritual.

The alpha just grunted obviously not liking the idea of his bestfriend—my dad keeping something as vital as that from him needless she continued.

Caius couldn't take the pain as my wolf became more and more feral then before. He leave the park and comes back bloodied and worn out. It wasn't like before his beta, third and fourth in command took notice of it.

They advised him to take a break from the park... Not only the park the whole wolf clan

When mama said that part. She looked at the alpha.

"That's why he said he wanted to go on a vacation"he whispered.

"How come he didn't notice he was feral at the moment he visited"kairo asked.

"Because I had just found or will I put it this way your mother finally accepted me  so at that point in time she was all I could think of"

Caius left and roamed the forest for months until some one saw him.

Mama said this and looked at the blonde man who had two other blonde females with him except for Cosmina.

"My daughter"he said. Staring at mama.

Everyone's attention turned to him. Then he took over from mama story.

Cauis was in the tomb where my second daughter Oaklynn run to for comfort and alone time. But he didn't know this. When she arrived at her tomb she saw him laying on hid side on her quilt and she fell in love with him knowing he was a werewolf. She knew he was the alpha of the sliver stash park.

She left him sleep as she made meal for her guest. Cauis finally woke up when he felt drips of water on him. He scared Oaklynn but she didn't show it. She fed him and when she stood up to leave he stopped her for the first time in months he didn't want to be alone. Oaklynn compiled and spent the night.

But Oaklynn knew it wasn't real. The moment they stared thst each other she compelled him with her powers.

"What do you mean by compelled?" I asked disrupting his story.

"She made him do what she wanted him to do"he answered patiently as he smiled at me. And I couldn't help but smile back.  Then he continued.

This became a daily thing. Oaklynn knew she was living a lie or fairytale life. For she knew that he feelings he had for her weren't real feeling but st least she ease most part of his feral wolf.

We told her that if he eventually found out she spelled him he would be out for her blood. But Oaklynn never listened.

Cauis went back to his park after all surity that he was sane again. Oaklynn did that for him... She made him sane and the darkness subsided.  But that didn't stop his weekend visit yo the vampire park to see Oaklynn.

"How is that possible I thought a wolf is only mated to a wolf" I asked.

"Yes they are but when the other half is dead or is rejected he or she looks else where like other species to mate with, then the wolf of me individual finally accepts the other species as the second half" Soren the blonde man explained.

"But it is never heard off before of an alpha wolf" the alpha said bitterly.

Soren just gave him a nod and continued with his line.

when one of his outings with Oaklynn the went swimming in the enchanted lake and the water removed the spell from Caius and he became normal.

But this didn't stop his attraction for Oaklynn. He came to me one day saying he wants to mate Oaklynn. I wouldn't allow it cause I felt he was still under he was still under her spell. Then he explained to me about the enchanted water and even though he was pissed before he felt piss with Oaklynn.

Oaklynn heard of his plans to get mated to her. But she feared because she knew she wouldn't allow her herself enter a mated relationship in lies.

While alone Oaklynn tried to remove the spell bug he explained to her about the enchanted water.

There was silence all over the living room I was on the edge of the sit to know more about my family.

My dad.

My mom.

Caius took Oaklynn out of France, to put a fake tattoo on my back. Though no one is permitted to see her back they would have to see his. To know if truly she is his real mate. They got matching tattoos and came back to France, performed the mating ritual and ruled over f sliver shash park.

Soren conculed his story and I was lost at the end.

"It didn't say anything about me and how I was born"

"That's because few months after the mating ritual Axel attacked I didn't know my daughter was pregnant"

"But I knew"mama said quietly.

The day before of the attack Oaklynn cane to me complaining of sickness. I checked on her and found she was pregnant. She got excited and and wanted to leave to tell Caius but was too weak I told her to spend the night at my house. Buy she ended up sleeping till the next evening and would have slept through the next day if Caius didn't use his mating bond to tell her that the park was under attack.

Oaklynn feared of her child more than her life. She knew she had to go to the fight as the luna of the park and then her secrets of being a vampire would be revealed but she was ready to do anything to defend and help her Mae and people. But she feared for her baby. Her first pup. She suggested to put the baby the crystalite. Where premature babies are kept or if a she-wolf is unable to carry the pup in her womb.

I did the ritual and the baby was safe in the ball. And asked me to transport her to the war for it was faster and more convenient.

When we arrived there it was a bloody war. And the air smelt of rouges and witches. Oaklynn looked around and knew possibly they would lose the battle and told me to train her pup to be a socerer and when the time is right I should tell her who she really is. I was confused as to why she said I should train her to be a socerer.

She turned and joined the battle. But I already knew it was a lost battle.

And mama was silent. As if everyone knew what she wanted to say next.

"You did not"alpha said.

"Where are they" the blonde woman beside Soren said.

And am just realizing all the blondes their are beautiful well. Cosmina has always being beautiful so it wasn't a new thing for me.

"I—dont know"mama stammered

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DONT KNOW!!!!"SOREN AND THE ALPHA BOOMED.

Yhe this time around I really think the ground shook up.

"You don't think we would believe that..my daughter—"

"—and my best friend is no where on the earth?"

Ok am just realizing the height of the tension all around. Cosmina just looked at me sadly.

"That's the point I don't know where caius is me wasn't with them but Oaklynn—i just suddenly lost connection with her"

"So what are you tryjng to say right now—"alpha started again.

"I think you guys are missing the point of her story"Coren said. And everyone turned to look at Coren.

"Honey where are you driving at"jaxtyn's mom asked.

"Am driving at Annika"he said pointing to me. "She is who we are searching for". Everyone was dumb founded Coren breathed out and angrily slammed his hands on his forehead.

"Ok let me spell it out for all of you" he said walking tk the center. "She is the daughter of a werewolf borne by a female vampire and raised as a sorceress"he said.

And everyone gasped.

"Yes she is the one. She is the TRIBRID"
