His Dark Obsession

60. A Gemini

ZEDKIEL.

“I want to know exactly what happened that night.” I say quietly.

He takes a silent breath, obviously remembering that night and, by the looks of it, it wasn’t a pleasant experience.

“It has been ten years since that night, but it’s still as fresh in my mind as if it had just happened yesterday. The town was roughly an hour’s drive or run from Dark Falls. It was in an even more isolated place than Dark Falls. Hidden on the other side of the forest and these mountains.

Sinclair and I were on a hunting trip, and we had found a target and given chase. It was snowing heavily, and this was something we did every winter. I made sure each year I made the hunt a little harder for him, and that year we were going to go through the rocky terrain and up through the mountains.” He begins.

I can tell he doesn’t like speaking of it, but he still continues and begins pacing the room.

I cross my arms and lean against the wall.

“I smelt blood and something burning, yet there was no sign of a fire. Feeling concerned, I thought to check it out. Perhaps there might be an animal or someone who might need help.

It was snowing extremely hard, and I was afraid there was a blizzard coming, but I knew I couldn’t turn back without checking. But I could never have imagined what we were about to come across… The entire town was burned down, and the streets were running with blood, mixed with the snow. It was a scene that even a horror movie could not rival. The houses were burned and charred, but it was clear the fires had died out hours ago.” He sits down on one of the sofas, clasping his hands in front of him.

“It was just like what you saw in there… the blood… rivers of it…”

“It was a human town, correct?” I ask. 1

“Yes, and I was alarmed. I didn’t know if I should call the authorities when it was obvious this was not a human attack. But then there was no connection and not enough time to contact your father, either. So I told Sinclair to look for survivors and with every house we checked, all we found were dead bodies.

We had scoured the entire place, and I was ready to head back when Sinclair found her, and I remember him shouting to me to come quickly…” He continued and now looks up at me.

“There she stood, a little child, covered in blood from head to toe. Her eyes were the only thing that I could see as she stood there clutching a teddy bear. She was simply walking through the streets, terrified and confused. I realised all the bodies were of humans. She was the only werewolf in a town of humans, and I knew I had to get her out of there before the police showed up.”

I frown as I take it all in.

Was her mother a human?

“Was she injured?”

“No, aside from being drenched in blood, she was unharmed. She remembered nothing. The only thing she knew was her name, Evangeline.”

“So what about the name Rose?” I question.

“Mother gave it to her.” He shakes his head as I ponder over it.

“And you realised she was an Omega from her scent?” I ask.
