Looking on the side, there's a cup with water, I take it and drink it as I'm parched. Drinking it the door opens to show a woman in a white cloak, holding a clipboard. She has brown hair in a messy bun wearing blue scrubs, and behind her is another one with a black blazer, a tight black dress tight on her body with heels, she is wearing glasses as she has black hair bouncy with giant hoop earrings, holding a big folder.
"Who are you? Where am I? Who am I?" The woman in the white blazer sits on my side and takes my hand, while the other one sits on the other end near my feet.
" I'm Doctor Truman. She is Social Services Director Jackson. All I know about you, little boy, is that your name is Julio, and your bloody clothes had that name patched on them. Does that name sound familiar?" My name is Julio. As soon as I say the name, my head starts to hurt, the machine starts to beep, and the doctor moves to help me lay down.
"Well, judging by the way the machine reacted, your name is Julio." I nod as I realize she is right, but if this is my name, why does my head hurt so much?
"Take it easy, boy, don't harm yourself. I will take care of you, alright?" Says the black blazer woman, When I feel something sting in my arm, I fall asleep again.
Marcella POV
"What do you mean, Ella?" Father asks me, still half asleep, and I shake my head at him.
"Julio, the boy from the Red Moon Pack!" My father's eyes look directly at me with confusion.
"Marcella, how do you know that name? How do you know this?" He growls at me, I do not wish to anger my father, but I must say what I dreamed of.
"I dreamed I was with Selene, she said Julio is there, no more father. The pack was not ambushed, but placed under a spell! You must believe me; I wouldn't dare defy or stead ye to death!" Father places his head on his pillow while mother moves to sleep on the other side, and as father huffs and puffs, he pinches the bridge of his nose.
"Very well, Marcella, speak of your revelations." I smile as Father allows my voice to be heard. Sitting on the bed, I begin.
"The place I was in was an odd one, I was in a dark lake or pond filled with bones, different types of bones, once I swam up the room was all white, but it was no room it was filled of white grass, trees and black reddish wolves. What was scary was how Selene seemed to look, of dark complexion and covered in red attires." Father looks at me with a pale face, have I said something harsh or wrong.
"Marcella, did you see the sky?" I nod. "It was a dark blue-gray with not a single star in the sky, why Father?" Father lifts himself from the bed and runs outside of the room like a man running from a ghost.
Scutching to the edge of the bed to run after father, mother awakens. "You shall not leave, return to bed Ella. It is time to rest, leave your father be." I sigh heavy as my legs dangle from the bed.
I lay back on the bed. When I hear the door burst open again, father enters with a big white book decorated with blue crystals. He sets it open next to me in the bed and points to a drawing.
"Did the place you were revealed looked like this?" Looking at the image it is as my dream was, I look at it up close as I slowly nor, my fathers shout "By thunder I have a gifted daughter!" Mother yelps from fear.
"My apologies Fiona, this is brilliant news from the gods! Our daughter can speak to Selene herself!" I shake 'no' at dad.
"Father Selene said I am to speak to her lover Lycaon, I am gifted by him not Selene. But I am to find Julio, who is her gifted child ." Fathers eyes open and mother stands on her side.
"It's time! The baby is arriving tonight!" I smile at what mother says, then I remember more to Selene's words, I snap to look at dad.
"Father, I am to have a brother who will Bring destruction to our lands, I speak only of the words of Selene." Father seems to be confused, as a ruler a Queen is troubling to manage but a man is a born leader, which makes no sense as I have been a perfect lady.
"Well then I'm glad my daughter is to rule, am I not?" I smile at my father but then the real fear of the revelations comes to surface.
Thinking of the things that are to slip away from my mind, mother starts to walk to the door, father runs to her, picking her up to run out to his left, I run to my room in the same direction but on the other side of the floor to place my nightgown, I place my slippers to run after my parents.
Skipping some of the toys in my room, I run out of my room, locking the doors of my own and my parents, I arrive at the bottom floor turning in the small hallway on the right just below the second floor is the castles private hospital, where the father is lying mother in her small bed.
"I shall fetch the Doctor's father!" I run out and I'm stopped by Cliff, my personal guard.
As he takes me by my hips in his arms elbow, I kick him hard in between his soft spot to allow me to move, when he bends I run to get the doctor who is entering the castle, I take his bag to hurry in the room where mother is, seeing Cliff angry in the bed next to mother, I hold on to my laughter.
As the mother starts to cry from the pain, the doctor informs everyone but me to leave as I am to help the mother give birth, I have assisted other midwives with the same process, I do not fear blood or a woman in labor, I help the doctor bring my baby brother to this life.
After hours, mother pushes one last time to then head my baby brother. "It is a boy, your majesty! Congratulations!" I smile at this news but mother looks at me with adoration, I take my baby brother with me as I make sure to clean him up to bring him to mother.
