Episode 1

My name is Pureza, and I am the cursed daughter

My name is Pureza, but I am anything but pure.

Let me explain why.

I live in a pack of wolves in the middle of the Amazon rainforest, the Luz pack. Here, wolves only turn during the full moon, just like in human tales.

I am hated by my pack simply because I am the reason they are not normal wolves like any other pack.

Twenty-three years ago, this pack was beautiful, full of life, with many wolves running around.

But when my mother had me, everything changed.

The place was totally destroyed, the wolves are now men and women for most of their lives.

I am the most hated among them, not only for the curse I brought upon them but also for my different appearance, which they themselves wish they had.

I am five foot nine, with a slim and strong body, platinum blonde hair, eyes lighter than the sky itself, loved by men and hated by women.

My parents died because of me, my brother died for me. Wherever I go, there is only death and suffering.

I haven't turned into a wolf yet and I don't even know if I will, but I am strong, even stronger than any wolf.

I can't explain why my life is like this.

Today, the pack is throwing a party for King Dionysus, he is an alpha wolf and the one and only king.

He is coming from France and making several stops at all the packs around the world.

He is looking for his mate.

But I doubt he'll find her in this pack.

Everyone here is horrible. Except for my favorite couple, the beta and his mate, Erica.

I've been so mistreated by this pack that one day I snapped. In an unfair fight with five wolves transformed by their hatred for me, I decided to fight back.

Everything bad that has happened here is my fault.

My parents died when I was ten years old, I was raised by an aunt of mine who also died when I was sixteen, all these deaths were horrible.

I remember it like it was yesterday, I was at school like any other normal day in my life, where I would get beaten up even by the teachers for being the cursed daughter.

That day when I got home I smelled blood and death near my house, I ran and when I entered the scene I saw was worse than anything.

My mom and dad were in the living room, their bellies cut open, their organs scattered around the place. I could feel the pain they went through. I ran and called for my brother, but nothing. When I entered his room, there was my hero, my older brother, lying in his own pool of blood, his head separated from his body.

My world turned upside down when I saw the only people who loved me dead. That's what unleashed an immeasurable rage inside me and I vowed to kill whoever was responsible for such cruelty.

After that I went to live with my Aunt Elena, a kind and old woman, she always tried to help me with the traumas of the death of my family, and she always told me.

"Pureza, my child, don't blame yourself for this curse, no witch has proven that you are cursed, my child, don't let hatred consume you. It was a tragedy what happened to my sister and your father and brother, child, but it wasn't you."

I swear I tried to remind myself every day that it wasn't my fault, but my pack didn't let it go.

Wherever I went people ran from me, they threw stones at me, they cursed me, I suffered a lot until I was twenty years old, on my twenty-first birthday I gave up trying to follow my aunt's rules.

I started breaking anyone who humiliated me, anyone who attacked me, I just didn't kill because I didn't want to pay for their hate.

But I also left broken arms and crooked noses wherever I went.

If I'm going to be hated, it might as well be on my own merit.

The only people who didn't hate me were Erica and her husband, Enzo.

Enzo is the coolest warrior in this pack, he taught me everything I know today, I fight even better than he does.

"Pureza, you are ready, my friend, now no one can stop you if you don't want them to."

"Thank you, Enzo, for your time and your training, if it weren't for you, I think I would be dead already."

"My dear, I wish you didn't need all this training to defend yourself."

"I know, Erica, I wish that too, at least to be normal like you."

They hug me and cry over my shitty life.

"Well, time to get ready, let's go to this party for the King, and since they can't forbid me from going, I'm going to rub it in their faces tonight, hahaha."

"The alpha will want to kick you out after this, for sure."

"I'm leaving now, my friends."

"We'll miss you, promise to call, or at least send a letter, please."

"Of course, Erica, you're the only people in this place who have never been a disturbance in my life, you are my only friends in this place, could you come with me?"

"My dear, you know we can't, I'm the beta of this pack, I can't just abandon my post."

"Yeah, I know, but it doesn't hurt to try, right? Hahaha."

They hug me and go home, and so do I.

Since King Dionysus is arriving today, the pack doesn't even remember that I exist, and I'm going to take this opportunity to leave. I know I told Erica and Enzo that I would wait, but I can't put my life on hold anymore for this pack that hates me.

I arrive at my childhood home and stare at the place. This is where I had my happy family and where they died at the same time. I can't stay here anymore, I feel something waiting for me far away from here and tomorrow I'll be far away from the Amazon.

That same night.

I packed all the things I'm going to need, and some changes of clothes and basic survival items, put them in a backpack. The rest of my things I don't want anything from here, I left Enzo and Erica a letter, apologizing, but before I leave I'm going to set fire to this whole house.

The pack is in an uproar, the King must be in the pack.

It's almost eight o'clock at night now. The party is starting now.

I grab my things and go out the back door, but first I light the wick of a candle right at the exit door, I leave it burning and turn my back and enter the forest, I walk for half an hour when in the distance there is a big explosion and fire high up.

From where I am, I can see the flames and people screaming.

My house is far from everyone, so no one is around to get hurt, I wonder why they are screaming, hahaha.

I continue my walk and arrive at the pier, I take a boat and go as far away from this place as possible.
