Episode 4

It's been a week since the first dream...

And every night is the same.

That strange woman appears in my mind, always in conflict with the Goddess, and soon after, I see fire...

She burns everything around her, as if her pain could destroy the world.

But tonight... something changed.

In the middle of the dream, another woman appears.

An old woman with a serene appearance, with eyes as deep as time.

Before I could open my mouth, she gestures for me to be quiet.

""You need to find her. The past is corroding her. You need to fix her heart, only then will the world not know her darkness. Remember, Alpha... a prophecy never fails.

Then she turns... and disappears.

I stand there, watching the young woman with flaming hair. For the first time, our eyes meet.

She doesn't speak. She doesn't move. But a solitary tear runs down her face.

I wanted to run to her. To say that everything would be alright. That I would find her. That she would never be alone again.

I take a step in her direction... and everything goes dark.

I wake up. Once again.

Sitting on the bed, I run my hands over my face.

What is happening to me?

I decide: as soon as the sun rises, I will go to the Elders.

I need answers. I need to understand this prophecy that seems to bind us.

I get up, take a shower to clear my mind, and head to the office. When I realize it, it's already 6 a.m. I bury myself in the clan's papers until 8:30 a.m.

I go after my beta, Gael.

"Gael, see how the omegas' self-defense classes are going. They need to be ready to start the patrols next week. And make sure the supplies are prepared for the full moon."

"You can leave it to me, Alpha. I'll organize everything" he says with a slight smile.

I leave without answering, determined, and head to the Elders' house.

"Good morning, Alpha!" say some children, playing on the trail.

"Good morning" I answer, without taking my eyes off the path.

I arrive at the old house and knock on the door.

After a few minutes, Kaia, the oldest elder, appears.

"I was waiting for you, Alpha. I was wondering how long it would take you to come" she says with sarcasm, but with a glimmer of wisdom in her eyes. "Come in."

"I need answers."

"I know... But first, tell me: what is afflicting you?"

"I've been having dreams. Always the same one. I'm in a forest under the moonlight, and I see a woman kneeling before the Goddess. She begs for her wolf, but receives no answer. Then, with tears in her eyes... she burns everything around her."

"This means that your predestined is closer than you imagine. When did the visions begin?"

"About a week ago."

"Has anyone new arrived in town during this period? Human or from the supernatural world?"

"Some people... But I didn't smell anything different. They say that an Alpha's Luna has a unique scent, doesn't she?"

"Alpha, we are not dealing with something common. This prophecy... it is ancient, powerful. And unpredictable."

We don't know if she is human or wolf. We don't know her face, her origin, or her beliefs.

We only know that she was rejected. And that a curse was cast upon her.

"Then tell me what this damn prophecy is. I need to know. I'm losing sleep over this."

Me... who promised myself never to look for my Luna again.

Kaia takes a deep breath, her eyes turn to the past as she begins to speak:

"This prophecy was born long before you."

They said that an Alpha born under the Blue Eclipse would have his destiny intertwined with that of a woman born under the Blood Wolf Moon Eclipse.

She, a Renegade.

He, a Supreme Alpha.

She, cursed by the Goddess.

He, blessed.

Two opposite paths, one destiny.

"During the Blood Wolf Eclipse, which occurs every hundred years, a rare and almost extinct species is in danger of disappearing."

These women, known as Lupinas, were usually betas or omegas. Their snow-white fur and blue eyes like the moon itself made them a target for hunters.

"Gifted with unique gifts" fire, earth, air, or water "chosen by the Goddess herself, many were used and betrayed."

And then the prophecy said:

A girl would be born. Without a wolf. With the soul of an Alpha.

Wounded by the world. Abandoned by all.

If by the next blood moon she does not find her destined mate,

she will never awaken her wolf.

And her pain will consume everything around her.

The only salvation... is the Supreme Alpha.

I am silent, absorbing every word. And when I try to speak... Kaia stops abruptly.

Her eyes turn completely white, and her voice echoes as if coming from another plane:

"Time is passing..."

And the bitterness in her heart is growing...

The magic is expanding...

You need to find her...

And break the curse that screams within her...

The battle between light and darkness will be difficult...

So, pay attention.

Remember, Alpha... a prophecy never fails.

Then, she returns to normal. Her shoulders fall heavily, and her breathing becomes weak.

"Kaia, are you alright?" I ask worriedly, because I know the price that a spiritual message demands from the Elders.
