Chapter 68: Answers

Meredith opened her eyes, blinking uncertainty at her surroundings. She felt so cold and weak for some inexplicably reason. She realized she was lying in a foetal position on a grass. Ice shivered down her spine as she tried to make sense of her surroundings.

She realized she was in a dark forest. She could hear the distant song of birds, the chirping of frogs and insects surrounding her.

She jolted in fear and lifted herself, attempting to stand up but her legs were wobbly, she lost her balance and fell down.

Groaning she got up again and took a step with difficulty. She knew she had to leave this place. Someone was coming for her.

Who? She had no idea but she knew she had to ran.

Ran before they catch her.

A wave of apprehension washed over her.

She took a step and furrowed at the pain that sliced through her legs. Her feet were bare and the white dress she was wearing was soiled with mud.

She felt so helpless and dirty. She started panting after a few steps, the walk was so exhausting. Her legs flared with fiery slices of pain. Her arms were covered in bruises, her knees a maze of grazes and cuts.

As she was walking along a small, dirt path through the woods. She stopped, startled by the strange noise. The sensation of fear came over her, tickling her spine with goosebumps as she shivered.

She started walking faster without looking back. Meredith nearly cried tears of happiness when she saw a large stream.

She was so thirsty. She glanced around but saw no one. Meredith scooped some of the water and gulped it down. After she was done, she sat on a large grey rock covered in moss to rest.

She didn't know where she was. Was she dreaming or this was real?

All of this was weird.

The ache and bruises felt too real for all of it not to be real.

So, where the hell was, she?

Tears welled in her eyes.

She felt so alone and scared.

She wanted to go back.

Someone was waiting for her

But who?

Her mind was blank. She didn't remember anything.

Suddenly fuzzy images filled the void inside her mind.

Blue eyes…beautiful smile….dirty brown hair

But who was he?

Why did her heart hurt so much at the image?

"Angel…please wake up…please..keep fighting."

She heard the familiar voice begging her to keep fighting.

What was she fighting? Why should she fight?

She was so tired, tired, wanted to sleep forever.

Suddenly a twig snapped behind her and she turned around, startled.

She heard something rushing towards. A pall of dread hung over her, numbing her to inaction.

Appearing in front of her, was a completely white wolf with large blue eyes. It ran towards her at top speed.

Meredith's furrowed her brows. It looked familiar but where had she seen it before?

Weird

Why would a wolf look familiar?

Fear stretched like a shadow in the alley of her mind.

She fell of the rock and began to crawl back as quickly as she could.

A glint passed through the wolf's eyes as it probed closer and closer to her. It's breath hitting her face.

She closed her eyes, "P-Please…don't hurt me…"

Hot tears welled in her eyes.

"Princess."

A feminine voice echoed in her mind.

Her muscles stiffened. The voice was so familiar.

"It's me Irish, your wolf. I would never hurt you."

The wolf said softly in her mind.

Meredith just stared at her in shock. What did it mean?

"You're a werewolf. Meaning you're me. I'm you. We are one. On a full moon you would transform into your wolf form. Which is me. We can communicate every now and then since I live in your subconsciousness.

Suddenly her head began to hurt dully at first then in hot stabs as memories consumed her.

The color drained from her face.

She now remembered this wolf. She had seen it in her dreams. It warned her that they were coming for her.

Were they responsible for her getting shot?

Atlas…

She took a deep breath. She hoped he was okay.

She glanced around; her eyes wide as she tried to comprehend what was going on.

Her frantic gaze finally made it way back to the white wolf. It was so big and the power it radiated was scary.

Meredith frowned. She had so many questions.

"Then why haven't I felt you all these years? Why now? Where am I?"

" I was locked away by magic, in order to protect you by your mom. Also, I was tasked with keeping some of their memories until you were ready for them."

"Mom? You knew my real parents?"

She whispered urgently. Meredith had always been curious about her parents. Why did they leave her at the door of someone's house?

"Yes. The King and Queen were great people. They loved you so much."

Meredith snorted. "If they did, they wouldn't have given me away."

She uttered bitterly.

"I know all of this is hard to believe but trust me. They did love you more than anything. Sending you to earth was the most difficult thing they have ever done but in order to fulfil the prophecy certain sacrifices had to be made,"

Meredith's lips parted, as the words sank in.

"Prophecy?"

"Sacrifices?"

She mumbled, barely a whisper in the quiet forest.

"Yes."

Meredith was pretty sure her heart just stopped then and there, but at the same time, it started racing.

Was she fucking in some fantasy book right now?

Because one sec ago she was an ordinary girl and now this. A prophecy?!

"I know you have questions. This will answer all of them."

The wolf vomited a crystal ball and it rolled onto her legs.

Meredith scrunched her face.

"Just drop your blood on it. It has all the answers you need."

Meredith watched the wolf suspiciously. She took the ball and stared at it in a daze.

She bit her lips and winced at the pain. She brought the ball closer to her mouth and blood dropped on it.

Suddenly the ball started to glow.. Meredith felt something white, hot and fluid inside her, it snaked its way around her blood stream till her eyes were an explosive white.
