Cursed By The Moonlight - Chapter 114

The year 2035 was a year of modernity and technology. Amaris couldn’t figure out why they rode a horse to get to the Fae Clan.

From what she knew, they could travel by car instead of riding a horse. But the path they took was different from what she saw on the map.

“Why did we take a different route?” She asked Zion.

“They’ve been expecting we’ll take the road. This route would be the safest. If we encounter enemies, we don’t need to fight in a crowded place.” He answered.

Amaris nodded in agreement. They don’t want to involve other people in a fight, so it’s better to avoid the road.

As they continued their journey to the Fae Clan Territory, a serrated mountain appeared in the distance. They made their way towards it since they had to stop and rest by sundown. The hill was lush green brooding over the land.

Just as they approached, Amaris saw a narrow path on the edge of the mountain. They started to cross down the path slowly. One wrong move, and they will fall into a craggy surface.

“There’s a river down this path. We could camp there and stay for the night.” Cole shouted.

The sky-scraping peak of the mountain was drenched in bright light. Spikes of thin sunlight melted the snow in a bristling, moving line. Amaris guessed that the heat had thawed the snow from the hip of the mountain.

“I didn’t know that we had snow this year.” She commented.

She was confused since they didn’t experience snow in Aramoor City for years now. Terra’s climate has changed gradually ever since the year 2020. Before that year, Aramoor City would experience snow every winter, but now, they mostly have summer, spring, and fall.

“This is part of the Fae Clan Territory. Fairies usually take care of nature. The snow fairies kept this side of their territory, so this is the only place in Oprea with snow. They need this kind of environment to survive.” Zion explained.

Amaris was amazed by the different creatures living in Terra. She couldn’t believe that even the smallest creature could bring big changes into their realm.

As they continued to travel down the mountain edge, she saw the trees wrapped around with powdery snow. The atmosphere became icy cold as they came closer to the bottom of the hill.

Zion felt Amaris’ body shiver. He could see a small ball of smoke coming out of her mouth as she breathed out. She was wearing her black bodysuit but no jacket on.

He could also see that the girls weren’t wearing any protection from the cold. He didn’t expect that it was this cold here, so he didn’t tell them to bring thick clothing.

Zion stopped the horse, getting off it. Amaris frowned. Then she saw his eye turn red. He crouched down, touching the ground with his palm.

The group sensed a sudden feeling of warmth around them. Zion looked at his Luna and smiled.

“Is it better?” He asked.

She nodded with a smile on her face.

Cole was in front, followed by Zoila. The Alpha and Luna at the center, then behind them were Maxine and Grakar, followed by Damien. Cole pointed on to something and shouted enough to be heard by everyone.

“We’re here!” Cole exclaimed.

Amaris looked at the bottom of the mountain, just a few steps away. She smiled to see the water glistened from the shafts of light coming from the sun. The sound of the river babbling made her heart calm and relaxed.

Zion felt her calmness and happiness when she saw what was ahead of them. She really loved nature, and it made his heart at peace every time he felt the serenity of her heart.

Amaris felt Zion’s arms wrapped around her waist tightly. She was confused, but she liked his warmth that gave her a sense of love and security.

“What is it?” She asked.

“Nothing. I just want to hug you tight, my love.” He whispered, kissing her on the cheek.

She leaned backward, resting her head on his chest. At the same time, she looked at the peaceful scenery in front of them.

“I hope this memory lasts forever. Let’s do everything again what we had done so far once we broke the curse.” She murmured.

“How about we create new memories together? You, me, and our little ones.” He suddenly said.

Amaris was surprised. She turned to him and saw his face was just an inch away from him.

“Zion?” She frowned.

“I want to have a family with you, Ari. How about you?” He asked.

She didn’t say a word for a moment then gave him a huge smile.

“Y-Yes! Of course! After all of this, okay?” She said.

“Yes. Your answer brought joy to my heart. Let’s do that in the future.” He whispered, then kissed her on the lips.

Zion deepened the kiss, and Amaris responded, grabbing his neck pulling him closer to her.

Someone coughed, distracting them from the momentary pleasure.

Zion glared at the person who had just disturbed them. Amaris’ face flushed when she saw Zoila, pouting like a little girl.

“Can you at least do something like that inside the tent? We prepared it already.” Zoila ranted.

Amaris giggled when Zion got off the horse with a dark expression. He walked closer to Zoila then cupped her face.

“Be thankful you are my little sister!” He said, flicking Zoila on her forehead.

“Hey! That hurts!” Zoila exclaimed while rubbing her forehead.

Zion supported her so she could get off the horse. Amaris walked near the river and was mesmerized by the shallow and clear water.

River birch trees surrounded the area and flowers with only three petals. The leaves had a distinct heart shape, with two lobes hurling backward from the bigger forward-pointing main lobe.

Amaris hunched, curious about the pink plants around the river.

“What’s this flower?” She asked.

“Wild pink flora. They usually grow in riverbanks near river birch trees.” Damien answered.

Amaris frowned. She had never heard of that flower before.

“Only the Fae’s have this flower. You can’t get one of these flowers unless a fairy allows you. The flower is used to treat all kinds of wounds for any creature.” Damien answered.

Amaris nodded. She was about to touch one of the flowers when they heard a scream nearby. She frowned and suddenly smelled the coppery scent of fresh blood.

“We have an enemy nearby.” She said while her eyes turned red and showed off her sharp fangs.

Hey! That hurts!” Zoila exclaimed while rubbing her forehead.
