Jada Wilson's P.O.V
The morning sun is bright, and the sunlight is warm and not harsh. The birds keep chirping, and the breeze is cool. The leaves of the plants are covered from the dew drops. The level of noise pollution in the mornings is less compared to the other times of the day.
I drew deep in the morning air and let it out, ready to start the day. I had a blissful night and never wanted it to end but of course, it can't always be night.
"Jada sweetie help me to the door. There is someone there" My mom, Gracia said from the kitchen.
"Okay" I replied, I had just finished adjusting my bed and was now heading to the door.
The smell of morning breakfast filled my nostrils making me salivate.
"Huh.. I'm starving" I announced, rubbing my belly before turning the door knob, but there wasn't anyone on the other side.
"Is this a prank?" I asked rhetorically.
I peeped outside to see if I could get a glimpse of whoever played the prank, but no one was in view.
I was about heading in when something caught my attention, an envelope.
"What is this?" I asked no one in particular.
The envelope had a bold writing saying - A letter.
"Well no doubt it is" I said within and chuckled.
I cleaned the surface with my hands, wiping off the dirt and dust before walking into the house still puzzled.
"Who was that Jada?" Gracia asked, coming out of the kitchen.
"I don't know, I saw this letter lying on the floor." I said, showing her the envelope.
"Let me see" she grabbed the envelope and scanned it.
"It's for you. Well I don't want to pry into your business. I'll let you sort this one out" Gracia said, handing me back the letter.
I opened the envelope and read its contents.
Westside avenue, now! - was all the letter said.
Still puzzled, I decided to keep the letter away and continue my morning chores as it was way more important than whatever that was.
The notes still filled my head as I continued with my chores. I still wasn't satisfied with it.
I grabbed the letter on my table beside the giant mirror, and opened it again, the content still remained, but this time around I turned the note over. What I found next horrified me, my eyes bewildered as I read the disturbing writing.
"What!?" I whispered, my hands were now shaking as I held the note, trying to comprehend it.
"It can't be. No. It cannot be..." my voice trailed. my eyes followed every writing, word for word, making sure I wasn't misreading.
"This must be a prank, yes. Someone is definitely pulling a prank on me and I'm not going to fall for it." I said, tears already filling my eyes.
I tossed the letter to my bed, dashed out.
My heart raced as I ran. Thoughts filling my head.
"What if it's truly a prank? Serigo will never do that to me. He promised. Nicole can never betray me like this. Will she?"
The thoughts kept flooding my head as I sprinted to the place the letter directed. It wasn't too far from where I lived, like 4 blocks away, so it was easy to navigate.
I finally got to the place, but everywhere was quiet. The house In front of me was unfamiliar. I haven't seen it before, it looked abandoned. Like it'd been there for ages.
I had an eerily feeling as I stepped forward. My stomach dropped to the floor and goosebumps ran over me.
"I shouldn't be here. I have to be here"
I walked further and heard moans. However the voices were not familiar.
I walked into the first room, and found Nicole and Sergio being intimate.
The sight didn't only horrify me but it made me nauseous to see my best friend, the person I confide in, sleeping with my mate, Sergio. I pressed my hands over my mouth as the sight disgusted me.
"Jada" Nicole called immediately she spotted me standing by the door, Serigo stop immediately, gazing at me, shocked.
I quickly Left the building not wanting to listen to their silly excuses but stopped in my tracks. My head was light as I felt dizzy.
"It's not what you think Jada" Serigo said, coming out with full clothes.
"That's what I wanted to believe" I said
"But I had my doubts. I never wanted to believe that letter"
"She lured me. Believe me I would never do something to hurt you"
Still backing Serigo, I heard Nicole's footsteps approaching.
"You enjoyed it as much as I do"
As the word left her lips, I turned abruptly. Filled with anger, I marched up to her.
"You backstabbing, two faced witch" I gave her a tight slap. She let out a yelp and held onto the place I had slapped her.
"How could you do this to me? I trusted you. I made you my friend despite knowing your condition. This was the reward I got"
"And you..." I said pointing to Serigo who just stood aimlessly.
"You're too naive Jada. I regret nothing. For the record I was more of a girlfriend to him than you would ever be." Nicole spat shamelessly.
"Shut up I don't want to hear another word from you" I half yelled. My head tingles and I felt more dizzy than before. My vision began to blur and I staggered to hold my stance.
"Are you okay Jada?" Serigo asked, coming to help me but I stopped him.
"Don't you lay those filthy hands on me" I said, holding up a finger. I tried walking away, but my dizziness got the best out of me.
"Do you want me to take you home? You don't look so we'll"Serigo said
But I ignored him, brushing his shoulder away.
"Please Jada, you'll get yourself hurt this way. let me help you" was all I heard before collapsing, Serigo rushing over to my side but I blacked out before he could come closer.
Jada Wilson's P.O.V
I woke up to a dark room. The air was stuffy and muffling sounds were heard. I couldn't see anything because my face was covered with a sack. The sack had some holes which I was able to see, not much.
"What's going on?" I asked hoping someone would be close by to answer me, fortunately there was.
"You're awake, good,"Nicole said.
"Nicole, why are you doing this? Where's Serigo?"
"Why don't we forget Sergio" she said pulling the sack off my face, that was when I realised that I was tied to a chair.
Nicole grabbed a seat and turned on a light bulb which hung loosely over their heads.
"You know Jada, I've never really thought of you as a friend. You are someone who just happened to be the kind of person I want to be. Why's that?" Nicole said with a Disdained look on her face, but I remained quiet.
"I have been your number one enemy but you never knew that, I've always hated you for as long as I can remember. You just seem to have everything while I .. left in the shadows. Everyone seems to gravitate towards you, your parents, Sergio, even the moon goddess and it's stupid prophecy. Moon alpha." Nicole let out a painful scoff
"It makes me sick how perfect you are. I can't wait to make all those characteristics mine" she said with a wicked smile on her face before disappearing into the dark room.
"I can't believe you slept with Sergio when you knew fully well I was in love with him, and you took him away. What kind of best friend does that." He said angrily.
"I said you were Naive earlier didn't I? You no nothing princess"
"I hate Nicole. I trusted you, I befriended you when nobody else did, this is what I was rewarded with. You pretended to be My friend only to stab me in the back. You know that Serigo and I are mates....."
"You're such a fool Jada" Nicole said, coming back into the light with a box in her hands.
"Sergio is the alpha's son not only is he the alpha's son, but also a very handsome one. Do you think you're the only lady who has an eye for him? Maidens follow him all around. You were just lucky to be mated with him. Sergio is not a saint as you think princess"
Her words left me devastated, thinking I know nothing about Sergio.
She pulled out a Phlebotomy from the box raising it high in the air and shaking its content.
"What are you trying to do Nicole?" I asked anxiously.
"If you must know, this is a Phlebotomy and I want to use it on you. Of course you know what is does"
"Why do you want my blood? It will do you no good"
"I so much happen to hate you but on the other hand, I want your abilities. I'm going to drain every ounce of your blood and consume it , soon I'll be better than you." She said with a sinister smile.
"Don't do this Nicole. This isn't you"
"You know nothing about me. You don't know me Jada and you will never know me. All my life I've been in your shadows, I want to be in the spotlight too." she yelled, her voice echoing In The empty dark room.
She walked close to me and pulled out my arms, I tried snatching my hand away but I couldn't. My body failed reluctant to move
"Don't bother, we gave you pills to weaken your body. So you can't move your arms, feet and... basically every part of your body" she said, injecting me with the pin. The pin was connected to a blood bag. I watched as my blood transported from my veins which she had punctured, to a quadruple blood bag.
"Don't...." I tried to say but I felt light headed again. The cause was taking effect. I was losing blood and slowly I'll be unconscious then.... Die
"Please...." I pleaded but her face remained wicked as she enjoyed me begging for my life.
I heard a rattling sound and saw Sergio coming in.
"I thought we agreed not to do this." He was saying to Nicole.
"She deserves it" she said
"I'll finally get what I want over the years. It feels good to be Victorious, isn't it?"
"We can't do...". He stopped, placing his hands on his head.
My head bumped in my neck, my body felt weak and my eyes tried to open as it constantly closed.
Sergio came closer to me, pulling off the needles, and cutting the rope which held me against the chair, but it was too late as my blood had been drained.Once I was free, my body dropped to the cold tiles.
Slowly I started losing conscious.
"Jada, stay with me. I'm sorry" he said
"It wasn't intentional Jada. Don't do this to me" he carried my paled cold body in his lap whilst he sat on the tiles. My eyes began to roll in. Inasmuch as I tried to regain my self, I felt it slipping away.
Jada! Please, come back! I'm sorry!" Sergio yelled, as he shook my body vigorously.
However, my life was slowly depleting and an unexpected hatred for him burned inside me. Like an electric wave, I felt the need to put him and Nicole in this same position I am in. Begging for their lives as they watch it flash before their very eyes.
I didn't get to say goodbye to my parents.
I stared at Sergio once more then back to Nicole who was busy, drinking my blood from the blood bag.
I felt my heart ceasing in my chest as my breath became rasp. I let out my last breath before everything went black.
Jada Wilson's P.O.V
My eyes opened abruptly, and I sucked in a deep breath. I was back in my room, however the memory of how I got there wasn't clear. I scanned my room and noticed something was off about it.
"Didn't I change the colour of my room two years back? Why is it....." my voice trailed as realisation hit me.
I searched for my calendar in my drawer and drew the date, April 6 2015!!
No, this can't be true. I start to feel uneasy and a nagging feeling of something being wrong.
"Why am l... I thought I'd died. Was my life regained?" I asked rhetorically, racking my brains.
"Is it because I'm a moon wolf? That has to be the reason"
Moon Wolf- A Werewolf that has the ability likened to the Alpha King or even greater.
In each generation, there is a Moon Wolf and I, Jada Wilson happen to be the Moon Wolf in my generation. That's why Nicole was so bitter.
The last thing I remembered was Serigo shaking my body vigorously before I blacked out.
"If I remember clearly today was supposed to be my....."
"Happy birthday sweetie!" Gracia bursted into my room, interrupting my thoughts. I sat, shocked and was unable to move. The feeling of not seeing my parents again moved me to tears but I hid it.
"What's wrong Jada? Don't you like the morning surprise?" Gracia said.
I sat and kept staring at her speechless, I got up and hugged her tight.
"Oh, is this what we're doing? Alright" she said, hugging me back.
"Your dad said you should come downstairs" she announced.
"Enjoy your birthday, darling" she said, closing the door as she leaves, not before planting a kiss on my temple.
Today is my 18th birthday again! I'm going to live this day again. I'm going to see Nicole and that bastard, Sergio. Today my moon wolf abilities are supposed to manifest. This same day, I'm going to be mated to Sergio.
The thoughts of being mates with that cheat, made my blood boil, anger and the feeling of betrayal surge through my body.
"I'll have my revenge. No matter what. I won't waste this second life" I said to myself.
I got off the bed, walked into the bathroom, turning on the shower and adjusting the temperature. The hot water felt soothing against my skin and I closed my eyes, letting the water wash away my worries.
In mid shower, I had the perfect idea to take my revenge, although it'll take some time. After a few minutes, I turned off the shower, and wrapped myself in a fluffy towel.
I took a moment to look in the mirror, and was surprised by the face that stared back at her. It was the face of an 18-year-old girl, not the 20-year-old woman I had become.
After the whole analysis, I stepped out and walked to my closest, picking the same dress I wore two years ago.
The dress was a blood red, flora gown with petals that shines as the moon and it reminded me of something.
Today my abilities will awaken, but I don't want any of those backstabbing witch to know. I have to transform in secret.
After I put on my dress, I went to the living room to find my parents waiting for me.
Nicole and Sergio were there, with Brian, Sergio's brother. He had had a crush on me ever since I could remember and would literally do anything I say.
This gave me an idea and smirked to myself.
"Happy birthday bestie" Nicole wrapped her arms around me, smiling but I knew better, that smile holds something more bitter than innocent.
"Happy birthday Jada '' Sergio said and feigned a fake smile. Seeing the two of them infuriated me. I wanted to make them suffer miserably like how I did, and I'll make sure of that.
"Happy birthday darling" my father, Powell said. He smiled proudly at me. My number one dream has always been to see my dad smile, to make him proud and I'm glad it will be the day.
The celebration started and soon after, the time for my mate to be selected.
It was almost a full moon and everyone was expecting this moment.
I and Sergio, have been in a long time relationship and everyone expects me to choose him as my mate. I wanted to, I wish to but the thought of him betraying me alongside Nicole, made me angry.
"The moment has come" Gracia chirped in, making me giggle.
Everyone all watched in anticipation.
"I, Jada Wilson, choose Brian Ramos as my fated mate" everyone gasped at the sudden news. Bewildered eyes, followed by unbelievable truth, were shown on their faces.
Brain was equally shocked as the other but soon masked it with a charming smile.
Sergio, on the other hand, looked livid. His face was formed in scowl as he darkened.
Nicole was shocked too but smiled through her shocked expression.
I loved how I took everyone by surprise. Nobody expected the comeback.
Sergio got up from his seat and started walking towards me. I felt the heat radiating from his body as he got close.
"We need to talk" he said below whisper
"Can't it wait. My celebration isn't over yet" I said
"No it can. We need to talk in private" he said heading to my room, I rolled my eyes and followed him.
"What was that you did back there?" Sergio said, immediately we reached my room.
"What was what?" I said, folding my arms against my chest.
"We've been in relationships for about.... I can't even count the numbers. Why would you do such a thing, to embarrass me"
"I didn't do anything. I chose my mate carefully and it happens to be your brother, Brian"
"You barely know him"
