To understand how The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself prophecy came true, we need to understand the plot of the web series. Therefore, for those who are yet to watch The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself and hate spoilers, we advise you to watch the series on Netflix first. Coming to The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself storyline- Sixteen-year-old Nathan (Jay Lycurgo) is the illegitimate son of the world's most dangerous witch. Fearing he will follow in his father's footsteps, Nathan is closely monitored throughout his childhood by the Fairborn. As the boundaries between 'good' and 'bad' fray, Nathan – along with mischievous Annalise and charismatic Gabriel – will soon discover who he truly is.
With Nathan injuring the Fairborn after being continuously bullied, he brutally assaults one of them. As a result, Nathan gets declared that he is a threat and more on his father's side (Marcus Edge) who was the Bloods and not inclined toward his mother who was Fairborn. Celia starts training Nathan so that he can fight his own father as the prophecy suggest that the wolf will be killed by his own blood. However, a few developments totally changes the scenario, and Nathan was asked join to fight against the Bloods. Soul (the main villain) comes up with an evil plan and make the 'Bottle Witch' concoction and consumed it in front of Jessica. The Bottle Witch’s spell worked, and it made Soul as powerful as Marcus Edge.
As 'Fairborn' Soul acquires the property of Bloods, he ate everybody’s heart and took their powers. Annalise (Soul's daughter) wanted to call her father because she believed that if she talked to him, then he would understand that whatever he was doing was not right. When Annalise called him, Jessica shapeshifted and transformed into Soul. Annalise didn’t realize that she was not talking to her father. Jessica told her to come to Wolfhagen, and she agreed. Soul didn’t know anything about it. Jessica knew that they would need Annalise by their side if they wanted to kill Marcus Edge. Annalise was probably the only person who had the power of decimation. Though Soul had a lot of trust in himself because of his newly acquired powers, Jessica somewhere thought that he was being a little arrogant and overconfident about it.

When the Bloods and the Fairborns reach Wolfshagen, a war breaks out between them. Amidst all the chaos, Nathan finally met his father in the woods. He asked Marcus Edge whether the prophecy was going to come true. Marcus had the power to know how he would die, and an eager Nathan wanted to know if he had a role to play in it. Marcus didn’t tell him anything definitive. He told him that time would tell if the prophecy was going to come true or not. Nathan didn’t understand what was happening. What Nathan didn’t realize was that after the “Bottle Witch” spell, even Soul had transformed into a wolf. When Nathan once again stood in front of his rival, Annalise came to his rescue and used her power to kill her own father. The prophecy had finally come true, though not in the manner that the Fairborn council had expected it to come. It was probably the most difficult thing that Annalise had done in her life.
To keep long things short, The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself prophecy indeed came true.
