My Cursed Mate

That night, they went to bed early after eating a light dinner. At first Kazandra was still hugging Vega and she was still nuzzled in his arms but she woke up with the man gone from the bed. She sat up and looked around but she did not find Vega.

She got out of the bed and walked out of the room, but the man was still nowhere to be found. She continued to walk around until she reached the condo’s balcony. It was hidden behind thick black curtains but she still managed to see a silhouette there.

A frown appeared on her face as she slowly walked towards that direction. She extended her arm and slowly parted the curtains to see that it was a wolf. It was Vega’s wolf. The massive wolf was sitting up right with all of its attention focused on the round moon.

Even with her arrival, the wolf did not show any reaction. It remained still and this made the woman worried. She quietly stood beside him and observed the wolf for a bit.

After a few minutes, she finally decided to call for him. “Vega?” She called out but there was not reaction. “Vega?” This time her voice was louder but the wolf did not move. “My love?” She once again asked and touched the wolf’s fur.

This time the wolf moved and tilted its head to look at the woman. Its golden eyes shown bright in that dark night. It reminded her of the golden orbs in that legend that circulated a thousand years ago. It was a legend that the golden orbs were actually the tears of the Moon Goddess when she lamented for his children who have died during the great war. It was said to be a powerful relic that could let the person in possession of it have the power of life.

Whoever had the golden orbs would have the ability to heal and others even claim that it has the power to resurrect the dead. But all of these were just a myth because no one has ever seen those orbs. It was just a bunch of nonsense. Kazandra shook her head and instead focused on returning the man to his senses.

“Vega, my love, can you hear me?” Kazandra asked as she reached and caressed the wolf’s head.

It leaned towards the woman’s hand and nuzzled in her warmth. Kazandra used both of her hands to caressed the wolf’s fur until it laid down on the balcony floor and rested on her lap. She continued to touch his fur until the wolf finally closed its eyes and fell asleep. Not long after, Vega shifted to his human form. Kazandra gently laid his head on the floor and went back inside to get him a thick blanket and some pillows.

The wind was not that cold, so it was alright to sleep on the balcony first. She covered the man with the blanket and laid another one on beside him where she laid. Kazandra caressed the man’s face and before entering the blanket and hugging the man’s bare body then she drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, Vega woke up only to find himself sleeping in the balcony with Kazandra in his arms. He was confused and when he finally looked down, he found that he was naked. The movement woke up Kazandra and when she opened her eyes Vega’s confused face appeared within her vision.

“What’s the matter?” Kazandra asked sleepily while hugging him closer.

“What happened last night?” Vega asked in confusion.

Kazandra woke up and sat up. “You shifted into your wolf last night. I found you staring at the moon and when I managed to get your attention, you shifted back to your human form and finally slept. I don’t have any way to bring you back to bed so I decided to sleep with you here.”

She briefly explained. Vega sighed and brushed up his hair. Without saying anything, he stood up and went inside to take a shower. Kazandra looked at his back before she stood up and went to the kitchen. She started to prepare breakfast for the two of them.

While she was busy, Vega was stuck in the bathroom with cold water hitting his head and body. His mind was still on what happened last night. He couldn’t remember anything. After his bath, he changed into comfortable clothes and decided not to go to Empire. He then found Kazandra placing the breakfast she cooked on the table.

They both ate silently and when they were done, they cuddled each other in the living room. After a few moments of silence, Kazandra finally spoke. She couldn’t ignore it any longer. She needed to know what was going on.

“Has this ever happened before?” Her attention was on him and yet her gaze was looking at the glass table in front of them.

Vega was silent. He did not want to answer any questions regarding those phases but he also knew that he couldn’t hide it any longer. “This is the fifth time now. I would fall asleep at night and would wake up in a different part of the house. This is the first time that it happened to me with you here though.”

“How about that incident in the hallway?” Kazandra has no intention of letting him go now that she started to ask him questions.

“I also don’t know. I just saw a woman in red and whenever she looks at me, there would be this smile on her face. Something that would bring shivers to me. I haven’t encountered anything that could scare me but whenever that woman appears, the urge to run would overcome me.”

Hearing her mate’s answer made Kazandra look at him. “I never saw the woman though.” She replied with concern.

Vega looked down and sighed. “It must have been my hallucination. Everything is only my mind. I must have been tired these past few days.”

“When did this start?” When they first met and got together, nothing of this sort ever happened.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Vega shook his head. “I’m not sure. It just happened.” Even he himself was confused. He never had those kinds of episodes and yet it just happened out of the blue.

“Is that all?” Kazandra probed.

He couldn’t hide anything from her. “I often got black outs and a bit of dizziness. My vision would turn black and a headache would follow.”

This, she noticed. Vega would suddenly stopp walking or doing whatever he was doing and rub his head before moving once again. At first, she thought that nothing was wrong but for it to happen often was never a good sign.

“We need to tell your brother.”
