A Mysterious She-wolf

Kavi's POV

***

I was standing on the seventeenth stair of a dark place. I can't see anything except the seventeen stairs that I ascended with minimal light from what seems like a door. I was smiling at something above the stairs. I could feel my lips moving but I can't hear anything.

It was like my soul was pushed out of my body and I was seeing me in the dream from some other person's point of view. Suddenly I felt my hair on the back of neck raising and a cold shiver ran down my spine. I felt a dark shadow engulfing my physical form and I felt something soft and wet on my forehead. My physical form was being kissed by that dark shadow! But what was that surrounding me?

Then I heard a faint whisper of 'I have been waiting for you, Cupcake' from the one who was hugging me.

The other me who was watching the scene want to get out of the place as I was struggling to breathe.

I sat up with drenched clothing from my sweat.

Same dream!

I was having this same dream on my every birthday nights as long as I could remember. The difference is I would be in my own appearance of that age and I would be standing on the stair which was equal to my age. My Grandpa told it might be some deep illusion embedded in my heart during my childhood. But it was haunting me exactly on my birthdays?

I shrugged it off and noticed the time blinking 04.45 AM. I freshened up and went to my mini gym room to spend the remaining time until hitting the training ground. I reached the training ground and everyone wished me. I felt overwhelmed with their showing of love. I felt very guilty to see Mithun as I learnt that I was the reason his son wasn't in this world anymore. I killed someone's mate. I hesitantly went to him.

"Mithun, can I talk to you alone for a minute?"

He looked in confusion but agreed anyway. I took a few deep breaths to calm myself.

"I want to apologise to you, Mithun."

I looked up at his face and his face was in a deep frown.

"I.. I was the reason.. for.. for your son's..."

I bowed my head down as tears stared flow as I couldn't bear the weight of his loss and it was as if I was experiencing the whole thing. I felt his hand on my shoulder giving a slight pressure.

"I know. My son told me that he was visiting a beautiful pup daily at the top of the mountain. Never blame yourself for what happened that day. Nobody knows that rogues were gonna attack that day. You were injected with silver and you were so young. It's his fate. Don't feel guilty about it. He used to stay at my sister's home at our neighbouring pack without transfer. And brothers tend to help each other. No one is to blame on that incident. So leave the past and concentrate on your future. Don't spoil your day, dear."

He spoke softly and lightly stroked my hair affectionately. And I understand why I could mind link him as he was part of this pack but stayed at another place.

"Why aren't you angry with me? I don't deserve your kindness, Mithun. I kil.."

I broke down but he shut me off with his hand before I could complete the sentence. I composed myself and looked up at him.

"What's his full name? He has sacrificed his life for me but I didn't even know his name."

I muttered the last part.

So if I silently manage to jump one tree to another while wind blowing, I would easily pass the territory without any difficulties. I took my bag as usual and managed to sneak out by jumping from tree to tree. I was almost got caught when a wolf heard my slip and he let out a low growl from below.
