Werewolf’s Heartsong novel Chapter 158

 

Chapter 158

Damien’s POV

The sun had gone down and the moon had come up by the time Blood Moon Castle came into view. Alora was asleep in her seat next to me, she would be disappointed she had missed seeing everything on the way in, but she needed the rest.

I thought back on the promise she had demanded of me last night, as I continued to drive towards the castle. I still didn’t know how I was going to uphold that promise, but I would have to. The Castle sat surrounded by a crescent formed out of eight different mountains. (2

The Castle was very large, it took up the space of a small town, the road went up, the elevation gradually getting higher as we went. for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com There was a city below the castle, we had already passed through it. In the night with the moon shining down on the castle it had a faint red glow coming from the stone.

From what I understood the stone that made up the Castle turned white when it was exposed to oxygen, the inside of the stone still held it’s original red color. We didn’t know what the stone was called, but legend has it, it was created when the volcano that used to be where the castle now stood, erupted its final time, leaving a creator and miles of flattened ground in the middle of these high mountains.

The ground around the mountains was fertile and a thick tall forest of trees and all kinds of fauna was growing on the mountains. Thousands of acres of land surrounding the mountains were utilized for crops. The farms raising animals had been on the other side of the City.

From what my father in-law told me, they had very strict herding schedules, to keep both the land and animals healthy. Very much like the Werewolves, they moved the herd every two to three months, because animals, before agriculture was a thing, were naturally nomadic.

Deciding Alora would be truly upset if she didn’t get to see at least some of the view, I wake her. I put my hand on her shoulder and gently squeeze. “Mate, were here.” I say. 3

Alora’s POV

It was my mates gentle touch and his “Mate, were here.” that had me blinking my eyes open. I rub my eyes with my palms to clear the blurriness away and look out the windshield and I gasp, it was so beautiful. Then we reached the top of the steep incline of the road, that’s when it happened, it was like a booming gong. 2

I felt it in my chest, and when the car swerved a bit I realized, Damien did as well. He pulled off to the side in a hasty stop,  for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com just in time for another resounding gong. This time I felt it shake the ground beneath our Jeep, heard it in the ground around me. A third gong sounded, again I felt it in my chest and the ground, but the sound of it now echoed through the air like thunder.

“Sis?” Nathen called to me, his tone worried.

 

I was panting, the gongs had knocked the air from my chest, and had caused a sheen of sweat to coat my skin. Shaking my head in a rapid motion, causing my braids, bound in a new tie up into a high tail, to fly around and brush against my shoulders.

“I don’t know.” were my quickly gasped words, panic in my tone.

I look over at Damien, he was also panting as if short of breath, and his skin glistened under the moon light with sweat. “I don’t know either, mate.” he says.

I force myself to calm down. “Xena? Selena? Any idea.” I asked them.

Everyone else had pulled over with us, both in front and behind. ‘I don’t have any idea what that was’ Xena said.

‘I don’t either.’ Selena said.

I unbuckle my seat belt and Damien does the same, and we get out of the jeep. The moment our feet touch the ground, the gong goes off again, three more times, and with each one I felt the power from the world around me sink into me.

Memories of my past lives started to fit through my mind, they were too fast for me to focus on. However my power increased, and more of it was unlocked, it flowed through me, glowing in a purple nebulous like aura around me.

I look over the hood of the Jeep at Damien, he was surrounded by a smokey red nebulous like aura. We lock gazes then we move to the front of the jeep, going into each others arms. The moment we touched the wind around us picked up and swirled around us. The ground beneath our feet trembled as more memories flited through my mind. I couldn’t catch the memories, but the love for this wolf they left behind, that I could feel.

 

It was a good minute before it all settled down and went back to normal. Well….as normal as it could get… having just gained a few centuries of knowledge in the space of ten minutes.

“Alora! Are you all right!” came my mother’s worried voice, she was practically running in my direction.

Mom and Dad’s vehicle was the farthest ahead, because they had been leading or little caravan of sorts. My father, a worried look on his face came up behind her.

“Alora, honey do you know what just happened?” He asks me

My mother stops and pulls me from Damien’s arms, and starts to look me over trying to see if she could find any injuries.  for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com When she was satisfied there were none she pulls me into her arms. My father pats my head and puts an arm around mom’s shoulders.
