The Rejected Werewolf Princess by Didiadeyemi

Chapter 157

CAMILLA’S P.O.V

Her ominous warning rang in my head. I couldn’t even open my mouth to speak anymore. I felt Ryker wrap his arm around my waist in an attempt to calm me down but it did little to actually make me feel secure. I couldn’t stop conjuring the worst case scenarios. I couldn’t stop wondering what was in that future that she didn’t want me to see. Was it similar to what Audrey had seen? Were they the

same?

“You will drive yourself mad trying to figure out the future,” she said suddenly making me turn to her. “Many people spend their lives facing the future and the past that they don’t enjoy the present.”

“You’re speaking in riddles,” Ryker cut in. “Can you tell us what is wrong with our daughter and how to fix it?”

“I don’t know what is wrong with her. I don’t think there is anything wrong either,” she ran her hands down Audrey’s curls softly. “The world is out of balance, Camilla and this is its messed up way of trying to right it again.”

“How would this make it right? Shouldn’t it create some kind of opposition to my own? That would make it right, wouldn’t it?”

“Yes and no, your powers are unstable, to create a direct opposite would be to make one as unstable as yours or one so secure and powerful that nothing can destroy it,” she sighed and placed her hands in her lap. “I do not claim to know all the secrets of the universe, I see only as I am allowed to but if I were to make an educated guess, I would say that your daughter is like me- a seer. Even with us witches it is unusual for seers to develop their gifts this early. The earliest I have seen is ten years old,”

“What do we do then? I want this to stop.”

“I can make a talisman to keep the dreams from coming. It will only keep them at bay for a while and believe me when I say that once it expires, she will experience the full force of everything we have been shoving down. It is a temporary solution to a permanent problem. What I would suggest is to send her away to people who can-”

“No,” I cut her off. “I’m not sending my daughter anywhere. If she is going to be
