#Chapter27Finally, after three days of running through the woods and catching the first flight to London, Althea and her pack reached home. All the new pack members were introduced into the pack the day after. Just after the introduction, Ron made his way to Althea.“I thought I would never see you again. Let alone here.” Althea said raising an eyebrow arms crossed.“Can I talk with you? Alone?” he asked. “Please.”Althea looked at him, telling him to follow her as she made her way deeper into the forest away from the pack house. And soon they reached a clearing far away from the crowd.“What do you want to talk about?” Althea questioned turning around to face him.“I felt a connection with you the day I saw you. And even more so when I knew who you were.” Ron said looking at Althea in the eye. Althea didn’t know how he knew her as she hasn’t said anything about Hela Silvermoon being her mother. But Ron somehow seemed to know.“How?” Althea asked.“I told you the goddess for
#Chapter28Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months. Everything was normal in Althea's pack. She returned to those sleepless night she used to have because of her nightmares. She had begun training everyone a few days after they arrived back. Althea knew something big was going to happen soon and she wanted to prepare everyone against it.She had stopped smiling. The little light of life in her eyes upon meeting Aries had now died down. It was empty and void of any emotions, like before she met him. She would occasionally give an empty smile that did not reach her eyes. All her days would go by either doing paper work or training with her pack. She kept herself busy.One day, when as usual, Althea was in the training grounds with her warrior. Ashton came sprinting and stopped upon seeing Althea."Alpha" He called out loud and taking lungful breaths and trying to say something."Seth called" he huffed out."They were attacked."Althea was right in front of Ashton "What
#Chapter29But Ash interrupted her, "I don't understand what you are trying to say, Alpha. And I don't think I will like you to continue."+"Ash. I want you to listen to me." Althea said again with her voice slightly higher but had no Alpha tone in it. Because she did not want this to be a command. She wanted him to agree on this on his own accord. She wanted him to choose this path himself.This time Ash remained quiet. So, Althea continued."I want you to remain yourself. I want you all to remain as families, loving and protecting one another. I want you to unite everyone even when I am not here."Althea moved forward and reached her hand forward and took both his hands in hers."Ash, I want this promise from you. I want these unnecessary wars to stop. You need to keep this in mind that to forgive is to be free. Don't ever let hate decide the best for you, for it will eat you alive until you are nothing but an empty shell.""I ask you today, as a friend, please, lead this pack
#Chapter30"I will keep everyone united. If I have to be, I will be their hope. If they need healing, I will be there as well. We will all always be friends, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives, we will all always remain as a family. No matter what. This I promise you today, Althea" Ash said firmly."Thank you." Althea's voice was barely above whisper. She gave him a small smile."The warriors must be waiting for us. Let's go" Althea said now raising her voice."Yes Alpha" Ash replied.All the warriors were lined up and waiting for their Alpha and Beta since their Gamma Liam was already there in front. When Althea and Ash reached the front, she gave a small nod to Liam and turned around so she was facing her pack warriors."My dear friends, today I stand among you all to share a sad news. Our family members were attacked today. I share this news with you not to grow hatred inside of you. I don't want any of you to be consumed by hatred." Althea's voice boomed."But if they
#Chapter31After promising to return home safe, Althea's team departed. It took them hours until they finally arrived at the Blue Blood pack. The pack did not look the same. What once had a field filled with children's laughter was empty and silent. Parents scared that their children would be taken away, forced their kids to stay inside.The security extra tight. The guards scattered every half a mile on top of patrollers and warriors every mile surrounding the whole territory. Matt arrived at the meeting point to get Althea's pack as their pack was permitted to kill anyone that tried to enter the territory.Matt was extremely happy to see Althea as that meant that his somehow lifeless Alpha might have some joy in life with his Luna by his side. Aries had been stern, rough and angry all the time after Althea left his side."Matt. Thank you so much for keeping them safe. I will never forget what you have done. Thank you." Althea said to Matt as soon as she saw him."Luna it is our
#Chapter32"I should have known she was going to do it." Ash said as they lay Althea where Warren was laying before."It's all my fault." Warren says. His head held down in shame."Althea is too kind. She cannot see anyone hurt." Ash said and looks back to Warren. "How do you feel now?""I-It feels good. I feel stronger." replied Warren, clenching and unclenching his fists."When Althea heals someone, she uses up all her energy, sometimes even her life energy." everyone looked at him with a surprise."It's okay, nothing too serious, her life energy is far too great for anyone to understand. If it was someone like us, we would have been long gone. Don't worry it will take her a couple of days to recover." Ash looked back at everyone."We should not let the Blue Moon pack know of this. We are quickly going to regroup." Ash said.Alright. Now listen everyone, I want everyone of you back to Warren's room, including you two, Seth and Jack. Ash mind linked.In seconds the door burst
#Chapter33While Althea was unconscious for a few days, a war had broken out. Unaware of all this, Althea laid peaceful in the white sheets of the hospital bed where Alex stood guard beside her.In her deep conscious, her soul looked for an answer and when she didn't get any, she gave up trying. She was lost in her own world. Now she just laid on the soft mattress of green field, her long white dress sprawled all over along with her hair. Her eyes closed as she faced the sky, sun kissing her beautiful face.Here, she was just a girl, all the problems in her life forgotten at that moment. She laid bathing in the warm sun, the birds chirping in the distance and the wind swiftly blowing, playing with the tall grass around her and the little white daisies, dancing along. This was her safe haven."Daughter" a sweet voice broke her peaceful slumber. But she did not mind hearing this voice. She had yearned to hear this voice for so long. Althea opened her eyes and sat up, looking towards
#Chapter34Blood. Blood was everywhere. It painted the green grass now angry red. The vast field now had mountains of dead body or detached limbs lying around, making the once peaceful land, a scene unfolding from horror movie. Weres fighting weres. Brother and sisters fighting each other, tearing their limbs, ripping each other apart. The horror continued.+But there stood the same three man that once erased the earth of its ruler, of its goddess. Getting protection of the innocent rouges who knew no better that to follow the vile creature that promised them things the rouges could only dream of. Hoping that once the war ended, they will be free of the eternal loneliness they faced. Little did they know, there would be no life left to be freed. They were not going to see the sun rise the next morning and their stories of how bravely they fought would fade along with their decaying body.The three men who were known as Gerald, Gray and Harvy was as coward as one could tell. Always h
#Chapter237Forged (4) (Special)Aries BlackwoodLike a magnet pulled by its other half, I walk towards her. “This is where she offered herself to save your soul. You didn’t even know her, yet she was so keen on being with you. I had asked her why she was so willing to love someone that doesn’t even know her existence?” Then she looks at me with a sad smile on her face. “You know what her answer was?”I shake my head, my eyes still on hers as I try to control these emotions wanting to pour out of me once again. “She told me she could hear your soul. That she could understand your heart. Said she would womb your sin and find a place where you both can be together in this loop of infinity.She was willing to sacrifice herself just to hear you laugh. I warned her. But my daughter is too stubborn for her own good.” She too shakes her head and chuckles softly. “I told her that just because she wants to be with you, doesn’t mean that you too would want the same. And you know what sh
#Chapter236Forged (3) (Special)Aries BlackwoodI open my eyes to the darkness.Pitch black darkness was all I could see. And I doubt if my eyes were even open at this point.But then I see something glimmer distance away and so I reach towards my only source of light which guided me to a land, painted in red, soaked in blood. Piles and piles of dead bodies covered the entirety of the land and there he stood, a boy with a sword pierced right through his heart.He holds his ground until no heart beats the land. Then he too falls on his knees. Swinging his sword up and onto the ground, he holds his wounded body upright as if proving the land that he was invincible even in death.And as something in that blood-soaked golden hair spurs my curiosity, I inch closer towards him, studying the lines of his equally bloodied face but his piercing blue eyes stops me from going any closer. For I see a replica of my own eyes. For I see myself in him. Baffled at the image of my younger se
#Chapter235Forged (2)Althea SilvermoonA group of rogues that wished to live in a pack again.With no place to return, no place to call home, they had chosen to remain on this barren land until their bare bone was the only proof that they once lived. And as my father’s words chanted itself over my head for the uncountable time, I had healed the hurt and guided them home as promised. Maybe that’s the reason they could bear to be with me. For they only saw me as their saviour and nothing more.I sigh softly as I feel the warmth of the flames. The only proof that I lived was the light rise and fall of my chest. Although alert, the only melody I was interested in listening to was the soft crackling of the wood as it sacrificed itself and burned into ashes.Thump.All of a sudden, I hear my heart thump loudly.Once. Just once.But it was enough to break me out of my empty thoughts. Lifting my chin higher, I place my palm over my heart to feel that lost sense once more. Sadly,
#Chapter234Forged (1)Althea SilvermoonMy feet digs deeper into the scorching golden sand as I make my way further into the land of dunes. The sun sits hot on the crown of my head, and my forehead beading with sweats, trickles down, dampening the white cloth covering my eyes as I advance further into the land with no direction. With no aim.I don’t know how long or how far I had travelled. I have passed through lands, crossed the ocean. I have even travelled across the universe with Alex always by my side. The essence of my life now engraved on the entirety of the vast universe.Had it been a century? A millennium? Or had it only just been years?I look up to the sky, feeling the sun hard against my face and I exhale tiredly.I don’t know. I don’t know anything anymore.The only thing that I knew was that I was once again back on this deserted land, occupied only with silence and the occasional howling of the wind. But my soulless body preferred its silent words anyways
#Chapter233Free (Special)Third personShe sits frozen still while the rest of the world moves on. Chaos finally gone along with both darkness and happiness. The land sits silent, too quiet to be called alive. And when everyone thinks that she will never come out of her grief, she stands herself tall, although tiredness evoking of her, she moves even though forced.With face as empty as her heart, she carries herself forward, towards the edge of land and Alex comes forth from her shadows. Taking her in the strong hold of his arms, he descends, wings spread wide, down to the land where flowers bloomed beautifully all around. And when he lands, Althea moves out of his hold, her eyes solely to the front as she gracefully glides through the narrow path. Ignoring all eyes on her, she continues to move forward to where her mother sleeps within that vast tree, her pale skin now as white as the snow covering the mountains. She stands before her mother and the man, she once loved as
#Chapter232The goddess of life (2)Third personShe whispers the name of mate as pain becomes too much for her to bear and in a silver flash, appears a man, wrapping his arm around her defeated shoulders, holding her tall. And with a swing of his arm, he dismisses the darkness floating the land, as if it was nothing but a heavy mist.He stands dressed in white and like the goddess, he too holds the brilliance of heaven, the halo in his silver hair, and supremacy on his silver eyes. But those silver orbs remain on the girl, searching for the light, the innocence she once radiated with.He had failed to protect his little girl, one whom he loved before heaven.“My sweet, little Althea.” But Althea looks back with hard eyes, blaming him for her loss as she pulls Aries tighter in her arms, in fear that he too was against her being with Aries. “What has this world done to you, my little Althea?”She keeps her glare on him even though, Randolph, her father, held the softest gaze of
#Chapter231The goddess of life (1)Third personShe lowers her head a little. And finally, the Lycans and wolves could see the light in her eyes that now shines through the world, as those silvers torches the darkness around.But on the other hand, her coal back eyes become one with the so-called darkness. Hatred, it holds all. Slowly making the silver dull which only holds the pain, the sadness. It grieves its loss and gradually the light in them too starts to fade along.“I will destroy this land that does not hold your breath. I refuse to reside in a universe that does not accept your heart. And I will never ascend to heaven that does not house your soul.” Gruesome words roar throughout the land as the war halts, as if time froze still petrified of the rise of the dark goddess. One by one, the creatures starts to dissipate as the darkness touches its core. Until there was none that lived apart from the man called Vyncent. Staggering on his feet, he moves forward, wounds
#Chapter230The dark goddess (2)Althea Zoella Castellanos SilvermoonThe wind blows hard as a loud roar echoes the field. A divine beast soars through the blue sky with his silver wings, beating on his back. The girl chuckles softy as she looks upon the beast and stretches her arm forward. And he lands inches away from her and strides with power, his marvellous wings spread high, until his furry head touches the small palm of the girl. “Would you like to join me on this journey, Alex?”He grunts softly while nudging his furry face against the palm of her hand, making a sweet giggle erupt out of the girl. The goddess walks towards them with a small smile on her face now as she looks at them both. Then her eyes shift on the silver of his wings and she steps forward. Gently stroking the soft feathers, she seems to be deep in thoughts. “I better prepare for the worst then. Who knows when you might need some kind of harmony in your life? I’m sorry to burden you with such weight,
#Chapter229The dark goddess (1)Althea Zoella Castellanos SilvermoonThen I hear the loudest roar of all, every other feeling in the air dull compared to it. I sit numb as I look up at the sky, but my vision far from it. My pitiful lips torn apart, pulled away from one another. It was me. My grief. Echoing to the heavens.Then I’m pulled into a land, heavily filled with green, blooming beautifully with tulips that stretched beyond, meeting the peaceful blue horizon. Then I see a girl dressed in white, her perfectly sliver hair blending into the pureness that she exuded. She sits on her knees as she hovers over the pond. Hesitantly, I move forward, pulled by the curiosity that held the girl’s keen eyes tightly to the pond. I stand just behind her and look over her shoulder at the clear colourless water. But instead of both our reflections, I see a man. One that looks very much like Aries with his golden hair now shorter, trimmed and his face void of the light stubbles. He loo
