Tristan had informed his servants to not disturb him until he came out and they did as told.
He entered his room and closed his door. He took a deep breath and exhaled deeply before speaking. "I know you said not to call for you until I had successfully completed my mission but you know that's not possible right? You are literally the only one that I can talk to considering my life right now and I need you to speak to me," he expatiates.
"What is it that you want, Tristan, son of Mateo?"
Tristan's face lit up when he heard the voice of the moon goddess. He wasn't expecting her to answer him that fast.
"Moon goddess. Thanks for answering me," he appreciated her for her response.
"You are always thanking me Tristan but fail to abide by what I tell you to do. What is it? Why have you called me this time around?" The Moon goddess asked.
"Jade Morris.
Tristan woke up to the ray of the sun reflecting on his face. He groaned when he opened his eyes to see the sun and used his hands to shade the sun from his eyes. He felt his head ache as he struggled to get up and then he looked around to find out that he was in a forest and he was lying on the ground. "The fuck?" He cursed as he looked around again, wanting to believe he was hallucinating he saw the forest and he knew he wasn't. "What happened?" He asked himself as the last thing he recalled was falling down on his knees and succumbing to the darkness. Fear gripped him. Did I fail my mission?" He asked himself as he got up from the ground. He pinched himself to see if it was a dream and he felt pain. "Did I fail my mission?" His heart dropped when he thought of that. He couldn't recall what happened after then
"I never expected that you would be able to break out of the illusion." Tristan heard the voice of the moon goddess. He looked around to see that he was in a dark space but hearing the Moon goddess voice made him feel at ease. "What happened, Moon goddess? How did I get there and why am I here now?" He asked, perplexed. " A lot happened to you while you were asleep but rest assured. You only slept for two hours. There is still plenty of time for you," the Moon goddess told him. "What do you mean? The last thing I remember was collapsing in my office. So why did I wake in that place and why am I here now? Why did I suddenly feel pain in my chest?" He asked inquisitively. " Like I said, a lot happened. Tristan Stone was attacked in your body and stabbed. He was on the edge of dying but I had to intervene and switch things up wh
"I repeat, what is she doing here?" Jade demanded in a stern tone while Tristan closed his eyes, trying to calm his nerves. That moment, he wanted everybody gone so he could have some time for himself and also speak to the moon goddess. He had not expected the Moon goddess altering time to cause this much damage. Jade was not only demanding an answer from him, she also called him by an endearment and he has no memory of how it happened. Was he and Jade a thing? He thought to himself. "Simon called me here," Lydia replied calmly. Hearing Lydia's voice, Tristan opened his eyes to see the woman that was supposed to be his girlfriend. He wondered how she was coping and if the memories of them were still intact or if the effect of the Moon goddess altering with time affected her too. "Simon?" Jade turned to look at
"How have you been?" Tristan asked Lydia with a smile on his face. Just holding her hands made him feel warmth in his stomach. "I've been good. I'm glad you are awake now," Lydia told him. Simon cleared his throat. "Aren't you going to go after Tristan?" He asked. Tristan rose his brows up in a questioning. "What would I do?" He asked. The facial expression on Simon's face told Tristan that he was surprised to hear his reply. Tristan had decided to keep Lydia by his side now that he was awake and stay away from Jade so that he would get his mission done. Jade was a problem before the Moon goddess had altered time and now she was one too. She didn't even change one bit and he wasn't surprised. "Wow! You are really not going after her? What if she commits suicide?" Simon questioned.
Simon opened the door and came in to see Tristan and Lydia hugging. The moment they felt his presence. They pulled away from one another. Lydia tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "I sent her home. She said she will call me once she gets home," he told Tristan. "Okay," Tristan replied shortly. Simon cleared his throat. He placed both of his hands in his pants Pocket. "I know you both like each other but Tristan, if you knew you would not be able to love her, why did you choose her?" He questioned. Tristan knowing well he never made that decision and everything happening now was because of the time the moon goddess had altered thought of what to say to Simon that would not blow his cover. "She said she was going to die so I had to stop her from doing so," he replied. "Still. Still Tristan, it was better you never chose he
Now that Tristan was left alone in the room, he saw it as the perfect opportunity to speak to the moon goddess and have her clarify to him all that had happened and why he was friends with Jade when he wasn't. He tossed and turned on his bed, disturbed by so many things. He wanted to call for the moon goddess but he just couldn't at the same time. He was lying on his back with both palms placed on top of his stop while staring at the ceiling. It wasn't dark in the room yet it felt dark for Tristan. It has always been dark for Tristan. All his life he saw darkness. Whenever he thought of his curse, he wished his father was never cursed and his mother did not have to die because of it. A memory of the past resurfaced in his head and a lone tear slipped down his cheek. Seven years old Tristan saw his ma
Tristan imagined how his life would be once his curse was broken and the people's attitude towards him. He has blended well with the humans and has come to love and understand them very well. He recalled how envious he was of Tristan Stone when he saw the love and support he got from everyone and then he thought of Simon. Simon had Tristan Stone back and took his problems on his head as if it was his. Most times he forgets that he wasn't Tristan Stone as he felt the strong bond Simon and Tristan stone had. He was sure going to miss the human world and he knew it because he was starting to feel like one of them in the body of another. Tristan exhaled deeply. "I wonder how my life would be if I came from another?" After having a few conversations with himself of how his life wou
Jade stared at Tristan with a frantic expression masked on her face."What do you mean by that?" She asked.Tristan took a deep breath. He had always said he was going to do what he felt was right after all his fate was in his hands. He didn't want to keep acting nice to Jade anymore, not after what she did to him before everything changed."It's as it implies. You say Lydia is suspicious but the true suspicious person here is you. You can't accuse someone you do not know when you are the real suspicious one," he told her.Jade's eyes fluttered and then her brows creased. "I'm surprised by your statement. You think I am suspicious?" She scoffed."I have known you for years Tristan and as for you, you haven't known her for half a year and you trust her more than you trust me? Why is that so?" She got up from where she was seated and raked her hair with her fingers.&n
Jade arrived just in time to stop the Queen mother from sacrificing herself for their realm. She was fortunate to come meet the Queen mother while she is preparing for it."Are you sure this would work?" The Queen mother asked Jade."Yes Queen mother. I was able to put the Priestess to sleep just like it happened with the dragon controlled by the demon. If you could help, with your powers, I would be able to reach out to many kinds at the same time and break the side effect," Jade explained."What about Tristan?Was he able to do as he said he could?" The Queen mother asked."Yes," The Moon goddess replied.I can see it from here. Tristan has successfully broken the spell and his pack members are all assembled in one place," The moon goddess said."Luna has also managed to repair the veil but it won't last long. She is currently sleeping now due to using all of her strength," The Moon goddess added."I am very surprised. Not only did you get Lydia to stop but you were able to break the
The moment Simon saw Lydia's face, he panicked.Lydia smiled. "Should I?" She said and Jade stopped her from walking any further."Why were you screaming?" Jade asked Simon who suddenly lost his voice when he saw Lydia.Tristan was surprised to see Lydia beside Jade and she wasn't intending to harm them. Although he could see that, Simon couldn't see that as he ran to hide behind Tristan."She won't hurt you," Jade told him. "So tell me why you were screaming," Jade asked."We want to leave this place," Simon said."Leave here and do what? Create more problems? Do you think you can actually solve the problem at hand?" Jade inquired."I might not be able to solve the problem at hand but being here does nothing to me. We cannot be here and Tristan Stone might be in danger too," Tristan explained. "The whole realm is in chaos and I am sure you know of that. Even if you go there, you will only be affected as every other person has lost their sanity and is blood thirsty and you...'' Jade
The vampire king smirked."Of course I am the only one against this because it it's nonsense like I said," he replied."It's not nonsense. You just constantly prove to me that you are very selfish and that makes you unfit to lead your people. You cannot..." The Vampire king harshly cuts the Moon goddess off."Don't you," he said through gritted teeth."Don't you dare," he said."Enough!" The Queen mother intervened."Since my method isn't wanted by all. Then every one should save their realm all by themselves," The Queen mother said."What are you trying to say?" The Moon goddess asked."I will save my realm and close the veil by sacrificing myself. Since you all cannot do the same for your kind, then i am afraid that there is nothing I can do for any of you," she said."I will be sacrificing myself for my kind too. I am ready," the moon goddess said and the Vampire king laughed out loud."Fine then," he said, making the queen mother and Moon goddess wonder what he meant."You both ca
The four gods also known as the rulers of the four realms all assembled together."I see it has finally happened," the vampire king said."Sadly it has. The vision of the witches priestess did come to pass," the queen mother seconded."How do we seal the veil?" The Vampire king asked. "The humans are dying in the hands of my people and the white light of hope seems to be everywhere. If things continue this way, I am afraid that a lot of humans will die and the werewolves too so we have to hasten up," The vampire king added."When the vision of this coming to pass was said by the witches priestess, I remember saying we needed to act before it happens but nobody listened. I remember saying we needed a way to seal the veil should it happen but nobody listened," the moon goddess said. "It is all my fault and I am ready to take responsibility for it," The queen mother said."You taking responsibility for it won't solve the issues at hand," The vampire kind said."You should have killed h
"So you mean to say that the time you went missing, you weren't really missing but you ran away because you were afraid of being killed?" Jade asked and Lydia nodded her head."I was restless for years. Unable to sleep and so in order to keep them away from me, I made sure to be very useful in the realm and also give pain to people. To be honest, they did not lie about me getting joy from seeing other people in pain. indeed I am the evil one and I proved them right," Lydia said."You not being killed then meant the Queen mother refused you got killed. You didn't hear them speak till the end, did you?" She asked and Lydia shook her head."Exactly. The Queen mother has always treated us as if we are her own kids. I didn't know any of this way happening. I just knew your attitude toward me changed but I thought it was okay. I'm sorry I didn't know what you were going through," Jade apologized."The four
"Will you tell me what happened to you that day? What you heard and when you heard it?" Jade inquired. They were now seated on a log in the forest. Lydia took in a deep breath and exhaled. "It was the day we turned ten. I heard it all when I was told to go ask the priestess for some herbs," Lydia began. ****** "Happy birthday Luna and June," the divine sisters of the witches realm greeted Jade and Lydia respectively. "Thank you so much sisters," Jade and Lydia said respectively. "Today marks your tenth birthday and also a new stage in your respectively life. You will both be given a new power today and we all look forward to it," divine sister Mirabel said and they both smiled at her. "Thank you sister Mirabel," Jade said. "Thank you sister Mirabel," Lydia said. "You are welcome.
Jade was able to follow Lydia thanks to the spell she placed on Lydia while fighting with her."Luna!" Jade called but Lydia wouldn't stop. She tilted her head to see that Jade was hot on her trail and so she kept running."Just stop already Luna!" Jade exclaimed."Why? So that I will get killed? Well I do not intend on living anymore but I will not die until I have completed my mission!" Lydia exclaimed."What mission? Why do you have to do this? There is no gain if you keep up with this? In the end you will lose so what's the essence?" Jade said to Lydia."I do not care, good witch! I will not only destroy the four realms but I will make sure there is no way to restore it back."Just why do you have to do that? What would you gain? You just want to destroy everything and guess what, when you do destroy everything, the vision of you being destructive will co
"Can you hear me Tristan?" Simon asked as he watched Tristan move his body.Tristan groaned. Not only did he feel his head ache but his body too. The little kiss of Jade has helped reduce the pain he felt but then Lydia attacked him again.Compared to before his pain wasn't much. He struggled to get up and Simon helped him.Tristan has not been unconscious all the while Lydia took him with her and the battle between her and Jade commenced.He looked around to see that he was in a completely different place and it made him worry as the skin between his brows creased."Where am I?" He asked frantically while he kept looking around."It's currently a war in the whole place now and this is the safest place right now," Simon replied.Tristan furrowed his eyebrows. He didn't understand what Simon was talking about and what he meant by war.
The spell Jade casted was stopped on an instance. Jade and Lydia turned to look at the person that had interrupted."Queen mother," they both said together and bowed their heads.Queen mother, the queen of all witches and one of the most powerful creatures alive."I see the both of you have decided to create chaos knowing well what could happen and how it would affect the balance of the four realms," she said.The queen mother has been living for the longest time and is said to see the future. She could do and undo things, making her power one of the best."My apologies queen mother but it seems Luna is persistent on dying or rather proving she is stronger than I am," jade answered."What is happening to you Luna and why have you decided to do this? This wasn't how you were supposed to act and you have broken a lot of rules and you will be punished for it," T
