Cursed By Fate

Laura wasn’t in the mood to eat, all she just wanted to hear was how and who killed her father.

” What’s going on Carl?” Laura asked impatiently.

” You have to calm down and take something before I can tell you about what’s going on?” Carl said and handed the cup of coffee over to Laura.

Laura grips the cup of not-too-hot coffee. It was perfect just the way she wanted it.

” I have a few questions to ask you before we know what’s next, ” Carl said.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

” I’m ready to answer any questions so far it is going to shed light into the darkness we have before us ” Laura replied dropping the cup of coffee on the table.

” Did your father have any hunter friends?” Carl asked.

” Yes, he does. He was the one that taught me how to shoot and handle a gun when I was still a little bit young “Laure answered.

” Really!! , so my girlfriend knows how to shoot a gun. That’s amazing Carl said jokingly.

” You are not serious Babe. I will pass all the jokes ” Laura said with a stern serious face.

” Ok, ma’am. I would like to meet that hunter friend of your father ” Carl said.

Laura’s looks changed and Carl asked “Is that a problem?”.

” Not at all. Should we go right away ?” Laura asked.

” Yeah, the earlier the better ” Carl said. ” I will just go freshen up and we will set out “.

Laura got up from her seat and walked towards the living room, her mind racing with thoughts of her father’s hunter friend. She couldn’t believe she was finally going to meet him after all these years. She sat down on the couch, her eyes fixed on the door, waiting for Carl to come out of the bathroom.

A few minutes later, Carl emerged from the bathroom, looking fresh and ready to go. “Let’s go,” he said to Laura, who stood up immediately.

They drove to the hunter’s house, which was on the outskirts of the town. Laura’s heart was racing with anticipation as they pulled up to the house. She could see a man standing outside, leaning against a tree, smoking a cigar. He looked familiar, and Laura’s heart skipped a beat as she realized who it was.

“That’s him,” she said to Carl, her voice barely above a whisper. “That’s my father’s hunter friend,”

Carl nodded, his eyes fixed on the man. “Let’s go talk to him,” he said, opening the car door.

Laura got out of the car, her eyes fixed on the man. She could see the guilt written all over his face, and she knew that he knew something. She walked towards him, her heart pounding in her chest.

” I don’t know why I’m feeling so nervous to go talk to him, “Laura said.” Probably because I haven’t seen him or talked to him for years after the death of my father”.

Carl patted Laura and said, “You will be fine “.

They went towards the man. Immediately the man saw Laura he was so shocked to see her.

” Hey, Mr. Jack. How are you doing ” Laura greeted.

” Laura is that you ?” Mr Jack asked.

” Yes, I’m the one ” Laura replied .” It’s been a while ”

” It’s been a while indeed,” Mr Jack said.” And who is this young man ?”

Laura looked at Carl and said ” he is someone close to me ”

” You guys can come in ” The man invited them in.

After they got inside, Carl couldn’t wait but went straight to the point. ” Sir the main reason we are here is about Laura’s father’s death “.

” That’s a while ago, ” Mr jack said .” What is with his death?” He asked.

” Do you by any chance have an encounter with any werewolf no matter how small it might be “.

” If I remembered well, I killed a young werewolf sometime ago ” he replied.

” Was Laura’s father still alive when you killed the werewolf?” Carl asked.

” Yeah, I think so because I can remember well ” Mr Jack replied.

Carl’s face changed immediately “Let’s Even forget about the fact that werewolves have an animalistic side but why would you just decide to kill a young girl ?” Carl asked angrily.

” Which girl is that?” Mr Jack asked.

” Didn’t you realize you killed a nine-year-old girl? Are you that inhumane that you are trying to kill and wipe off creatures that didn’t even come near you ” Carl said in anger.

” We are just trying to eradicate the trends before it happens,” Mr Jack said.

” That’s the problem with you humans. You fear what is not chasing you and it gives me a headache”

Laura was confused, she didn’t know what they were talking about and how it affected her father’s death.

” The rash decision you made is now affecting my relationship with Laura and putting our relationship in trouble ” Carl added.

” Are you a werewolf?” Mr Jack asked.

” Yes, I’m a werewolf and if you try to kill me too the way you killed the innocent girl, I will kill you here ” Carl replied.

Laura has never seen Carl this angry. He was so angry that he could do anything to Mr Jack if care was not taken.

” Just so you know, we werewolves are not dangerous people and we do not attack humans without a reason because we already have a kind of ban from the moon goddess to not hurt any human, and yet you people decide to make our target and experiments, ” Carl said.

” you know what ?” Carl asked Mr Jack. ” Just tell Laura what happened by yourself because you know the werewolves killed her father because of you ”

Mr Jack was at first reluctant to explain to Laura but he had to tell her . ” we hunters normally use this kind of scent that allows werewolves not to smell us coming. That was what I used that day when I killed the werewolf ”

” So your father came to visit me that day and we hugged. I think that was when the smell must have rubbed off on him so that werewolves might have seen him when he went hunting and thought he was the one who killed the werewolf ” Mr Jack narrated.
