The Rebel
Chapter 52

I heard myself say and she moved her bloody hand to touch me.

“I…I…I’m…sorry…but…I…have to leave…”

She said and I saw tears falling from my eyes. I moved my head to say no, I begged her.

” No ! …Let me heal you…”

I said placing my hands on his chest, I tried to concentrate but failed. The anxiety in me… made me unable to concentrate.

“No…. I have to…. do it!” »

I tried again, but I failed, cursing myself. Not knowing what to do… As she held her hands in mine…

“It’s okay… Look around… Everyone is safe… We did it , Edward. »

She said and I looked around. The women… who were unwell earlier seemed fine now. The darkness in the veins receded.

While the beast…returned to his human form…his body motionless as he took his last breaths.

“Edward… Promise me… Promise me to rule this kingdom for me… I trust you… to be the Werewolf King.” »

“No Anara… I want you… I… can’t… … I love you Anara… I love you! »

I tried to heal her again. The light came out of my hands… But it wasn’t enough… The light disappeared and I cried again in defeat.

“I love you too, Edward….I always will.” »

“Please… Anara… You can’t leave me…”

“I won’t, Edward. »

That’s all she said, smiling and caressing my face with her cold fingers.

“We… We will meet again. »

And so it was, his hand fell and his eyes remained frozen. Killing my soul along with her.

I didn’t know when a scream ripped through me and I heard the words Anara echo through the forest.

My hands shook, as I tried to heal her again.

It was useless, everything was useless.

She was dead.

Crying, through my foggy vision I saw a mark on his arm and I stood still.

Princess ? …. It was the royal mark of a princess.

But that’s not what surprised me the most… It was the emblem she wore.

It was the emblem of SaraVera’s lineage… It was the emblem I saw on my Vera’s arm.

Shocked, I looked up at his face.

And suddenly the vision changed.

The girl on my lap was no longer Anara, but my Vera.

“Veraaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!” »

… … … … … … … … End of the dream… … … … … … … . …

I woke up with a start, my eyes saw the walls of a small room as my heart was ready to explode in my chest.

It was a dream… But it seemed real.

The moon goddess showed it to me and there must have been a reason for it. I was suddenly out of breath.

” Calm down. »

I looked down to see small tubes attached to my hand and the previous events came back one after another.

Vera’s illness…. At night… “F**k! I have to go. »

I was about to get out of bed when I saw the door open.

Ben stood there, relief covering his features.

“Welcome back, Alpha. »

That’s all he said and I didn’t waste a second to pull the tubes attached to my hands and pick up my jacket.

“What did I miss?” » That’s all I said and he smiled as he opened the door for me.

” It’s just the beginning. »

… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … . .. … …

I turned the pages of dusty old books while my army waited for my orders outside.

My fingers moved over the names of members of the royal lineage.

I needed to know this.

Or we won’t be able to win this fight tonight.

The present will always be linked to the past… To our past which was incomplete.

And that’s where I found it.

Anara Knight.

Whore ! It was bad! I could not believe my eyes !

She was Vera’s great-grandmother or someone in her lineage… Hence the name Knight… Zara Seravera Knight.

The dream was true…. It was in fact in the 18th century that witches discovered Elysium, when women were killed with black poison.

But what shocked me the most was the name of the man who ruled the werewolf world after her… …King Edward… My great-grandfather.

The very man I saw in my dreams… The Healing Boy… My healing abilities come from him!

Everything was so linked and that’s when it clicked for me.

” We will meet up. »

And I couldn’t stop the heaviness from settling in my chest.

Vera and I… We weren’t just companions, we were karmic soulmates.

The souls who could not unite in this life, took birth again.

This proved that the Moon Goddess was correcting her mistakes.

She made a mistake by mating the beast and Anara in this life. But now, centuries later, she has mated Vera and me.

We were Anara and Edward in this current life.

The bond between my father and Vera’s mother… But, they were not partners… It was still a mistake… It showed that the moon goddess tried, but failed again.

Until us.

Until she properly mated me with Vera for eternity.

The love story that had remained incomplete all these years was once again at its peak.

And now it was my turn to end this cycle and show them the meaning of true love.

After all, I was no longer a weak healer boy, I was the king of the werewolves.

And my Vera was no longer just a princess now.

I smiled when I saw the dagger in the photo and couldn’t help but feel proud.

Why didn’t I know this sooner.

The dots started to connect and now I knew who the rebel dagger really belonged to.

It was my Vera’s.

My Vera was the real Rebel and it was time everyone knew who her real savior is.

“Alpha!” »

Ben walked in and I nodded at her, smiling, remembering all those times she told me she loved Rebelle.

It was true in every sense of the word.

” We continue ? »

He asked and I looked up at him.

“Surround the arena. The fight must be interrupted. »

And that’s when I followed him, knowing now that Vera had planned everything.

Asking Ben not to leave the borders… Leaving a 100 meter section unguarded to the east… Giving Benjamin the opportunity to enter that way… And then challenge him to a duel.

She had everything organized and the idiots thought they were the ones who would win.

Running my hands through my hair, I continued to smile to myself.

“Vera Red, you are a true queen indeed.

But, I’m sorry, my love, I won’t allow you to sacrifice yourself for the sake of humanity this time.

I’m not as selfless as you.

I have a selfish character and I want you to sleep in my arms after tonight’s conflict.

I want you to be mine, Vera.

And I’m going to make sure I do it, even if I have to burn this world in hellfire to do it. »
