Sixty

Unknown Pov
I smirked as I watched the alpha drop.off his mate at her house, I waited patiently until he was gone and waited an hour more to ensure the coast was clear, I left my car and went to her doorsteps, I rang the doorbell and held her annoying voice from inside.
After few seconds, she opened the door.
"How may I help you?" She asked.
"Can I come in please?" I asked politely.
"How may I help you?" She asked again.
"You can ask me that one more time cause pretty lady, there's a lot of things you will help me with." I said lewdly and before she could react, I punched her in the lower abdomen, when she crouched, I knocked her out.
I dragged her back into the house, the street was still busy and someone might still see me, I poured a sleeping potion on her mouth and made her swallow it, I waited till midnight and bundled her into the trunk of my car, I drove off to my hideout, when I got there, I tied her to a chair in my basement and drank a bottle of soda.
"Alpha Alaric, you've messed with the wrong person." I smiled to myself.
I removed a layer of her clothing and left her almost naked, I took pictures of it and sent it to Alaric with a hidden number, I know it would definitely make him crazy bit I was just starting, he would definitely run mad by the time he sees my message.
An hour later, I didn't receive any response from him, and I was beginning to get pissed off, I decided to step up the game and took a picture of me pecking her so it looks surreal and sent it with a caption 'Hope you loved my present ' I sent it and awaited his response, two minutes later, my phone, I received a message from him.
Whoever you are, I will find you and when I find you, I'll kill you.
The message was plain and direct, I chuckled; typical of him, threatening and fearful, but I was determined and wouldn't back down at the last minute, I know I'm no match for him but I had a winning card with me which was his mate and I would definitely use it well.
Chelsea's POV
"Alaric!" I yelled.
"Ciara." He screamed.
I ran after him and he ran even faster, I smirked seeing that he used his wolf speed advantage and tried to win, it's a game two can play, I closed my eyes and muttered a spell and almost immediately, he slowed down while I gingerly ran past him, he stared at me as his pace was no faster than that of a tortoise.
"Cheat!" He yelled at me.
I stuck out my tongue at him, and when I reached the finished line; I released him, he ran towards me and we both fell to the ground, he caught me and kissed me, I chuckled and kissed him back.
"I love you Alaric." I said to him.
We kept on playing until one of our soldiers ran towards us, he panted heavily.
"We're under attack!" He managed to say.
Immediately; Alaric sent message to everyone in the pack and fin few minutes we were on the battlefront fighting for our lives and safety of our people, Alaric is my mate, he's a werewolf and I am a powerful witch, we were a formidable duo who fought and won every war but this one got heated because the vampires and fae had joined hands to conquer us.
Alaric fought gallantly and most of our men we're down, the vampires were much stronger when they combine their strength with the faes, we became outnumbered and began to lose, it was a taboo for our enemies to win, if they did they would wage a war against the humans also and take dominion of the world and rule wickedly, Alaric tried his very best but they were proving to be stronger than we are.
We were losing the battle and Alaric was fatally injured, we had no back up and no other choice, I couldn't let him die, his life was more important than mine so I cast the forbidden spell; one which would destroy all our enemies and in return I would offer my life, I closed my eyes and began to chant the spell.
The heavens opened as the portal was been unlocked, Alaric realized what I was doing and rushed towards me.
"Stay back! Else we'll die together!" I warned him.
He didn't listen but pressed forward.
"We perish together." He said determinedly.
I completed the spell and managed to wipe off the evil ones, I Fe to the ground; exhausted and spat out blood, Alaric held me in his arms and shook me.
"There's no way I'll let you die." He yelled with tears in his eyes.
"Let me go Alaric, I made the sacrifice for you, I chose this path." I urged him as I struggled to breath.
"No, get me a healer!" He yelled.
A witch suddenly appeared.
"Save her." Alaric begged.
"There's only one way to save you both, you'll have to give her half your heart, this will preserve her and make her become reincarnated while you will be in a state of eternal slumber until she finds you and reawaken you, only then will you be together." The witch said.
"Don't." I disagreed.
"Do it!" Alaric agreed without hesitation.
"But be warned, she had half your heart and core, you'll never be whole again, she will have half your strength, energy, power, vision and everything you possess." The witch said.
"Do it!" Alaric insisted.
I tried to stop him but I was too weak, all I remembered was him groaning in pain as half his heart was taken away from him and then I closed my eyes.
I gasped as I opened my eyes, I scanned my environment and suddenly remembered a strange man knocking on my door, kicking me then I blacked out, I was tied to a chair in what looked like a dimly lit basement.
"Hello." I called out and got no response.
"Is anybody here? Who are you?" I asked but got no response.
I kept mute and began to reflect on the dream like or was it a peek back into my past memories? The pieces began to come together to create one clear picture, I now understood why I could awaken Alaric, why he loved me unconditionally and why he first referred to me as Ciara, I was Ciara, the reincarnation of Alaric's true love and the most powerful witch to have ever lived!
It was all confusing and scary at the same time, I still try to process the fact that I'm on love with a werewolf and now I regained my past memories which makes me realize I'm a witch? This is obviously too much to handle, I decided to get back to sorting my identity later and focus on Mt present situation.
I heard the door creak open and a young man in his late twenties walked in, he stared at me like I was some object on display, he licked his lower lips which disgusted me, I noticed his eyes were fixed on my body, I felt a bit feverish and my eyes fell on my laps, the thicker layer of my dress was no where to be found and I was left with my undergarments.
I instinctively tried to cover my body from the lewd man but my hands were tied behind me, his phone rang and he smiled.
"Hello." Came Alaric's voice from the phone.
"Hello, listen to your lover." The man side and stretched the phone to me, motioning for me to talk, I eyed him and almost hissed.
"Alaric?" I aid into the phone.
"Good Lord, Chelsea? Are you fine? Just hang in there honey, I swear I'll come get you." He said worriedly.
The man hung up and returned the phone into his pocket.
"What do you want? Who are you?" I asked the pervert.
"Who am I? I'm the one who will destroy your lover, why? Because he has locked horns with the wrong person." He spat out venomously.
I burst into laughter, I know he was being serious while talking but it was funny to me, he arched an eyebrow in confusion.
"What's funny?" He asked me, totally embarrassed.
"I'm sorry I laughed, it's just that I can't hold it in, you? Kill Alaric?" I mocked.
He crossed his arms behind him.
"Why? You think I can't?" He asked.
"My apologies but you honestly look like a you're devoid of both love and nutrition, I could handle you in a one on one fist fight, challenging Alaric is more of an insult." I said.
His facial expression changed and I could tell that he was angry.
"What did you just say?" He asked angrily.
