A Gift from the Goddess Book Two - Ch.# 32
The time that elapsed after Sterling’s death was intense. Both internally and externally. Because the longer that went by, the more I began to wonder what the full implications of my actions would be. Already, my reputation in town had been dubious, being attacked once before for being a ‘Rogue Luna’. So just what would happen this time when word got out that I’d killed the Alpha’s brother? I could hear Kieran saying something in a hushed voice from outside the room, leaving me to stare at the motionless corpse that may very well be my undoing. It seemed almost poetic that Sterling would find another way to potentially ruin my life, now from beyond the grave. Though I couldn’t blame him for dying. That had been entirely my doing. In that moment, it had felt as if everything overwhelmed me all at once, vividly imagining what he would be capable of doing should he have been allowed to live. And though morally that wasn’t my decision to make, I couldn’t help but wonder what my life wo

“Two packs aligned under her rule,” Allison continued. “An accumulation of two Alphas, the Saintess and a Luna. Each one more monstrous than the last. A collection that broke our sacred traditions, and dealt with those who would not join them via irrefutable orders… and death.” She then pointed to another painting of four people; the Saintess with her silver hair and violet eyes, and a fearsome-looking male next to her with black hair and green eyes. Then a male with dark brown hair and molten gold eyes… and a girl who seemed depicted as an angel with shadow-like wings. Her brunette hair willowed in the wind as her eyes shone like sapphires. “Their spawn continued their legacy, but it wasn’t until the Saintess’ death that a revolution was finally able to begin. A revolt against their rule and one to reinstate the ways of old. A war that lasted nearly fifty years. The Great Silver War.” “…Was this the same war that the suppressors were designed for?” I asked. She looked at me in sur

!!!AUTHOR NOTE: Apologies again for the recent issues with Chapter #33, the one where Ch# 32 and #33 were published within it. This should now be fixed so, if you still haven't done so already, please double-check you've read Chapter #33 before reading this #34 here.For those who already unlocked the chapter, you may need to 'sign out' and sign back into your GoodNovel account (or, if that doesn't work, "Clear Cache") for your local phone copy to be updated. Both of these options are found in the app's 'Profile' tab -> "Settings". However, keep in mind that Chapter #33 IS THERE, but you just needed to scroll down in order to read it. People unlocking it new from now on should only see the one chapter; #33. Really sorry again that it happened. I was rushing to publish it that day and then I didn't have the power to edit it once published. Unfortunately, GoodNovel don't work on weekends either. Thanks to everyone who commented to bring it to my attention. I'll do my best to ensure thi

“My name is Rheyna…,” I said. “Rheyna Knight.”How strange to say it after all this time. It wasn’t something I felt all that connected to nor had any particular fond memories of. It was simply the only thing I could recall when the orphanage had asked me who I was. Just my name and nothing else. Not even my parents.“Allison?” I asked when she still hadn’t spoken.Something about the whole situation seemed off. The alarms in my head were still screaming at me to run… and yet I did my best to keep ignoring it.Only… Allison now hadn’t moved. Almost as if she were frozen in place.“Allison? Did you hear me?” I asked. “Aren’t you… aren’t you going to check your book?”But with her eyes cast down, her lips started to whisper something very quickly that I couldn’t hear.“…Allison? What are you….”And it was as I took a step towards her that her eyes then suddenly snapped upwards, staring at me with an expression that took me aback. A hatred within them unlike anything I had ever seen.“…A

“Rae… What’s happened?” he asked.I opened my mouth to reply but the words wouldn’t come out. My body was running on pure adrenaline for survival now and I was doing my best to push through the overwhelming urge to cave into my emotions.“I… I’m…,” I fumbled.My eyes were trying to water but I gritted my teeth against it.I didn’t want to fight Kieran… I didn’t know if I could live myself if I were to see the look of hatred in his eyes. Anything but that.“Rae?”“I… Kieran, someth—.”But before I could finish speaking, I was suddenly cut off.“RAVEN!” Allison’s voice shrilly screamed.And I cursed. She was here. Probably at the staircase looking for me.This was game over.Kieran frowned but turned around to investigate, walking towards my only available exit. One now manned by his insane little sister.“Kieran! W-wait… don’t….”However, as I futilely trailed behind him, I was further stressed by seeing that Allison had recruited help. Help in the form of Daniel, the Beta heir.“Hand

“NO!” Kieran roared.And right as the dagger pierced the surface of my shoulder, Daniel was promptly pushed off me. “I said *don’t touch her*,” he growled.The weight of his words fell over everyone in the room, and once again I experienced the tangible sway of his order.“Kieran,” Daniel huffed out, unable to get back up to his feet. “She—.”“No, enough! You’re hereby forbidden from moving until further notice,” Kieran said. “That goes for you too Allison. Sit down. Now. And I don’t want to hear another word from either of you.”Allison gritted her teeth but did as she was told.“What… What is that?” I asked. “What did you do to them?”Kieran looked defeated as he straightened back up, unable to meet my eyes. He simply stared at two people he held dear as they were trapped on the floor.“An Alpha heir order,” he said. “It’ll only hold them long enough until a full ranked member arrives though.”“Kieran—.”“Leave… Rae,” he said quietly. “I can’t do anything else for you now.”The pa

Two months had gone by since my escape from Ashwood. The day still haunted me whenever I thought about it, remembering the faces of loathing, remembering the fear and confusion… remembering the pain of leaving Kieran. It was that pain which was still the hardest to deal with, like an aching that never left me. A constant thorn in my side to remind me how we couldn’t be together… and it wasn’t just thoughts either. With the suppressors assumedly now completely worn off, for the first time I was experiencing living with what I imagined our entire species did; feelings that belonged to a creature inside you. Every single day it was like I could feel its pain crying for Kieran, whimpering internally as if I’d amputated its arm off. It was exhausting… and it only made it more difficult. Sometimes, in my darkest hours, I contemplated taking the suppressors again. There had been one bottle left behind which now stood atop my bedroom dresser, staring at me with the promise of making the wo
A Gift from the Goddess Book Two - Ch.# 39
This was the riskiest venture I’d done since returning from Ashwood.Not only was I now leaving the protection of my father’s reach, but I was willingly jumping down a rabbit hole that could potentially bring more problems in its wake. Opening myself up to secrets I might eventually regret uncovering.But I couldn’t go on like this anymore.To continue as I was would only lead to destroying myself or others, possibly bringing more harm than I knew how to fix. *If* it was even fixable. I could only hope that Zac would recover and stop treating me like… whatever that was.However, it was clear that there were things at work behind the scenes that weren’t immediately obvious. Things that might come back to bite me whether I liked it or not.And so I had to start with what information I did have.…Information that led me to staring at an old iron woven gate, a chilling familiarity about it.Because it was this very gate that belonged to the place I’d called home for some time.The orphana
