Chapter 467


    467-Snakes And Witches!


    Years Ago:


    Author''s POV:


    Christina was out and about on a date with Maynard when she couldn''t help but feel like she was being


    watched. She tried focusing on anything else but couldn''t.


    ‘Let''s go back to the academy, then.” Maynard smiled at her, holding the car door open for her.


    ‘Do you mind if I stay around for a bit? There is a salon I want to visit. I think my hair needs some


    treatment,* she told him with a smile, making him stare at her for a few seconds before he shrugged.


    ‘Sure,’ he smiled.


    ‘Thank you. I will see you back in the academy,” she waved her hand at him before storming away in


    the direction of the salon.


    However, she had a feeling somebody wanted to approach her but was holding back because of


    Maynard.


    Once Maynard got into his car and left, she slowed down and started looking around.


    ‘Ugh! I don’t feel right,’ she spoke to her wolf, nervously rubbing her palms together.


    ‘Lam telling you, I am sensing our blood around,’ Tina confirmed. There was someone trying to


    approach them. And not only that, but that someone seemed to be one of their own.


    ‘Christina!*


    That''s when Christina heard someone call her name from the alleyway.


    There is someone there,’ Christina said as she spotted a woman in a long ck overcoat, peering from


    behind the wall. After she had sessfully caught Christina''s attention, she started making her way out


    of the alley.


    Christina was bewildered as to why this woman wanted to lead her away. But since her wolf has also


    confirmed this person could be her rtive, she started walking behind her. The strong feeling of


    meeting someone of her own after so many yearspelled Christina to follow this woman.


    Following her heart, she followed her. The woman led her in silence to a mountain. Now that the two


    were walking in sight, Christina had to pause and know more about her before she followed her into


    some shit.


    ‘Who are you, and what do you want from me?" Christina yelled, feeling the cold breeze being brushed


    against her skin.


    Thedy slowed down and eventually stopped. The awkward silence was reced with the howling of


    the wind. Once she turned around and took off her mask, Christina let out a loud gasp.


    ‘Mom!1'' There was no way she would need a minute to recognize her. Although she never spoke much


    about her, she always carried her mother''s memories with her. There was not much, but Argo had


    shown her a picture of her mother when they were kids, and it stayed in her memory. However, she


    never spoke about it with anyone.


    Seeing her alive made her happy for a split second before she took a step back from her.


    ‘My daughter!" Emelia smiled, tearing up at watching her grow up so beautifully.


    ‘Daughter? I am not your daughter.” Christina''s happiness onlysted till she remembered her mother


    was alive all these years, yet she never came to check on her kids.


    "Why would you say that?” Emelia ced her hand on her heart and sniffled back tears.


    "Where were you, mother, when your kids were left alone?" Christina yelled, with her emotions all over


    the ce. It wasn''t easy to find her again and hug her when there was so much that Emelia had to


    answer for.


    *I was too miserable and scared toe out and see you and my son," Emelia whimpered. I didn''t


    have an easy life, Christina.*


    She sobbed, rubbing her chest a little to disy how much pain she was feeling in her heart.


    ‘No! That is not an excuse. We thought you were dead. Because there was no way a mother would not


    come to hold her kids when they needed help. Zander! He suffered so much from the monstrous side


    of him. You never—she muttered as she zipped her lips tightly and closed her eyes to discard the


    emotions that were making her eyes well up more.


    "Why are you back now?’ Christina regained her posture to question her without looking weak.


    ‘I havee back to my daughter. I want to be — your family.” Emelia''s lips trembled as she said, "I


    havee back to help my daughter survive what I couldn''t," her words rming Christina. She didn''t


    know her life was in danger.


    *I am perfectly fine with my mate and friends,” Christina argued with her, folding her arms over her


    chest and refusing to believe anything Emelia has to say.


    ‘That is one big lie you have convinced yourself of.” Emelia let out a little scoff, but only to express how


    much she thought she was guilty.


    ‘You think my life is in danger?” Christina asked her, still feeling some type of way because it was her


    mother she was refusing to hug. If it was the little Christina who missed her mother dearly, she would


    be hugging her mom by now.


    *I am talking about the people you are calling your friends and mates,* Emelia mumbled before she


    looked behind Christina and noticed a caring.


    ‘Please hide." Emelia cleaned her tears and told her daughter, who frowned when looking behind at the


    car.


    ‘Who is it?* Christina asked her mother.


    *I will tell you everything. Please, just hide now." Emelia rushed over and shoved Christina behind a


    tree while adjusting her hair and clothes.


    The car stopped, and a guy rolled out of it. He looked around briefly before he reached Emelia and


    stared at her for a moment.


    ‘Why are you standing here like that?" he asked her, scanning the surroundings. Christina was


    confused when she watched this man talking to her mother. It was an enormous shock for her to not


    only see her mother alive but also hear something rming from her. She openly imed her mate and


    her friends were not exactly who Christina thought they were.


    ‘I was just getting some fresh air, Marko!" she smiled, epting the food he had brought for her.
