Cursed
Everything begging for massive malice.
In 1841 castle of Ferguson's ancestry newborn's crying echoed every corner of the building.
Her existence started with death. her first breath became the reason for eighteen witches' casualties.
After giving birth, The queen of Ferguson's named her half-human baby Nathalia.
The newborn already had magical emerald-shaded eye color. Her little pale skin, fluffy raspberry-colored lips, and cute tiny nose were true perfection.
all of this was part of the curse. Her beauty was a little start to the power she owned.
Because of her mother's ambition, Natalia's whole life was already planned.
"Oh dear Minerva. Let me introduce you to the world's future proprietor, Natalia Ferguson. First half-human vampire and wizard."-Serena announced proudly.
The old lady in a black cape grinned. She looked around the hall. There were a bunch of mortals, but it didn't mean anything.
Serena always was exceptional. All her existence was full of rebellion against the rule of nature. And revealing the supernatural world for some humans was a thing she could do.
The old lady came to the cradle and looked down at the newborn. Her almost thousands of years old fingers touched on baby's forehead and gasped.
"So that was right. Witches were not wrong. You break the number one rule and gave birth to a humans child!"-she raised her voice.
"She'll be the powerful creature"- Seren answered calmly and proudly looked down at her daughter.
She was Serena's greatest plan and because she was already born it was her win.
" look at me, give me a chance to look at your soul and see your future," Minerva whispered mysteriously in the baby's ears and looked into her little magical emerald eyes.
At the moment when the old wizard saw her future, she relaxed and grinned. The little girl didn't what Serena was expecting.
She was a mistake of nature and because of that, she would become the sword of nature to punish the rebel.
"Why are you smiling?" Serena asked and stood up from the throne.
"She is still mortal," Minerva answered and smiled.
"That's what curses work like. Yes, she is still human but yet. She'll become..."
"The powerful creature. I know but did you know that she'll be the one who ends you? She is the sword of nature. " Minerva mumbled with a mystery tone of her voice.
Her words made Serena speechless. Minerva was the one last wizard who could see the future without permission.
"I saw it. You killed eighteen innocent witches and because of this, she'll be human before her eighteen birthday. Her last years of being human will be so hard. She'll feel bloodthirsty, and her skin will start burning with the sun. On the day of her eighteenth birthday, she'll taste blood for the first time and this will be the first step of her turning. After your dearest daughter finally finishes turning what you created she'll create an army against you and it'll be your end." Minerva said proudly and looked at Serena who was already watching her daughter with disgust on her face.
All Serena's plans changed in a second. She didn't even know where made a mistake. Natalia was supposed to be her perfect creature but instead, she was the worst thing she had ever created.
"You, mortal, - she called to one of the maids, - take the child from the palace to Nicville. There is a small hut there. Raise her and never tell her about the supernatural world. the eighteenth year on her birthday make sure she'll not taste human blood. if she'll drink it she'll become a monster and kill every human being. Because of this, I want you to take care of her, and if she ever tastes blood kill her." her words were full of fear and disgust.
"But your majesty, I have three children. My youngest daughter is only 2. She needs mom. What will happen if I left them? My husband is a hunter. They already are alone the whole day." a woman starts to beg the most powerful wizard.
Her family already was fringe of the destruction. If she would leave them all the duty would pass on to his oldest son.
"do you love them human?" Serena asked her sarcastically.
"yes, your Majesty," she answered and looked down at her feet.
"then if you want their life do what I told you!" Serena raised her voice to one of her useless maids.
She was already so angry to be kind to a poor mortal.
The woman breathed out effortlessly. She was useless in this situation. No matter how much she wanted to raise her children, she was forced to raise a supernatural creature who could turn into a monster anytime.
After a long silence, she takes the baby with her hands and left the great dark palace with the supernatural baby.
While the cart was silently going down the dark road the woman with long blonde hair and teary caramel eyes was watching the baby who was calmly sleeping in her arms.
Natalia was the reason to left the woman's family. A hopeless mortal couldn't stop thinking about what would happen if she would leave the baby in the forest.
Little Natalia was already an unwanted kid. Even her mom rejected her in an hour.
The young woman, who was lost in her thoughts heard the baby's mumbling.
She quickly looked at the baby and stop breathing for a second. The magical baby's eyes were wide open. Little sparkling in her emerald eyes was only for her new human. Her very first smile belonged to the heartbroken woman.
It was like little Natalia was ready to love her as a mom with all of his little supernatural heart.
"Hello, baby girl." the woman whispered in her ear and caressed her cheek with her finger.
The baby unexpectedly caught the woman's finger, squished it, and smiled again with her toothless mouth.
And that was it.
The start of the biggest changes.
her little smile became the reason for the heartbroken woman's smile and realize that she was as harmless a little girl as her daughter. She would never be the one who would hurt someone, cause her smile was full of kindness.
"I'm Eden," she whispers again, and for -the first time, she kissed the magical baby on her forehead.
"I'll be your mama. Until my last breath," she?? told rejected, Natalia and hold her tighter.
