Chapter 3

Longwei's POV

I wasn't like this before I went to war with the handler Queen. This must definitely be linked to her, so I'm blaming this strange occurrence on her. This is nothing but her doing. If she had wanted me dead, she should have done it herself, instead of planning to make me suffer this way. Now what is happening is greater than death.

"What the hell are you doing!" My mother screamed in my head.

" I don't know what is happening to me, mother" I cried to her.

I wanted someone to save me from myself but none could. I was looking at my father who was equally looking at me. I know at any moment, there would be an attack. I wish I had a mirror before me to see what I'm looking like. I don't trust any part of my body again. I don't know if my eyes now have a mind of their own like my mouth.

The look of my father changed to a fierce smile. I know that smile very well. He does wear it whenever he's at his best for torturing me.

"You plan to challenge me boy?" He said.

" No," I shouted in fear.

Now that's the real me. Forget that I'm huge, I'm so afraid of my father. That's why I felt like this was all a dream.

"I just want to know about the prophecy. The old handle talked about the prophecy and said it has something to do with me" I pleaded.

Then I saw my father's eyes change to bright red. He seems to be as angry as a beast. I don't know why what I said got him angry again. Or does he have a link to the prophecy too?

"Will you shut your mouth? You will never speak of the prophecy again!" He growled.

"No I won't. I have to know every details" I argued.

Before I knew it, my father dashed at me and hit me so hard that I flung to the wall and hit the floor so hard. Pain ran through my body. I could hear my mother's scream.

"Longwei Shen!"

Yes, that's my name Longwei Shen. I looked at her and saw her running towards me. My father stopped her and shoved her aside so that she fell hitting his chair.

I roared in anger. That woman is the only thing that gives me happiness. I rushed at my father and held him by the throat lifting him off the ground. I didn't even know I could do that.

"Longwei, please" my mother's voice soothes my anger.

I looked at my mother and threw the man away. I could see shock briefly registered in his eyes but it quickly dissipated. Even though he was choking, he was still filled with pride. I thought what I did was a message enough that I'm not so restricted or lame but instead, immediately he landed on the floor, he stood up and went to grab my mother. He dipped his claws in her neck.

"Ahhhhh" my mother screamed in pain.

"No!" I shouted and wanted to run to her but his words stopped me.

"You move close, I'll rip her head off in seconds" he threatened.

I was surprised. That's his Luna for crying out loud. Not just his Luna, his mate. The woman he marked and loved. Who exactly is this man called my father? I always thought him to be just a tough man but now he seems more than a tough man but a demon. I couldn't help but look at him with wonder.

"Pick your sword," he commanded.

The aura in the room already changed and I wondered what went wrong.

I looked at him suspiciously. Why would he tell me to pick my sword in this kind of situation? I could use it against him. I looked around briefly to those in the room. They had all scurried to a corner, even those that are my fearless warriors. They were all looking so afraid. I obeyed him with my eyes on him.

"Now dip it into your heart," he said.

"What!" I couldn't help but exclaim.

I looked at him like, is this man serious? When did it get to this? Why will I want to kill myself? I begin to doubt his fatherhood. Why will he want me dead? Just because of this little mistake he wants me dead?

"He has always wanted us dead but he was afraid to do it himself" my wolf said.

The realization was done on me with those words. All those torture he do give to me were so deadly but I survived all. But why? What have I done to warrant death?

"Don't listen to him Longwei. Let him kill me" my mother cried out.

He then dipped his claws more in my mother's neck and she screamed. That scream got into me and I know I have to do something. I wasn't ready to die neither did I want my mother too. The man who was my father and was acting so strange right now.

I made sure to distract him by staring into his eyes and when I got my clue that he was so focused on me, I swiftly ran to him and pulled him away from my mother and I held him down with all my strength.

"Why are you doing this?" I shouted.

"You can never fulfill the prophecy. You are nothing but a powerless human" he breathed out.

Another strange revelation.

"Human?" I was confused.
