|ASTRAEA|My eyes fluttered open as i lay there, battered and broken, darkness threatening to consume me.I sensed a soothing presence, lifting me gently from the depths of despair. The goddess stood before me, her form radiant amidst the shadows that surrounded us.It was her again."Come," she said, her voice echoing through the silence. "Lets walk together."Her voice sounded so familiar yet I couldn't grasp the thought. I reached out, grasping her hand as she guided me through the darkness, leading me to a tranquil stream that sparkled in the moonlight. We walked in silence, the gentle sound of the water soothing my troubled mind."Why can't I see your face?" I asked, my voice barely more than a whisper.The goddess smiled, her features shrouded in a veil of mystery. "Some things are meant to remain hidden, even from those who seek answers," she replied cryptically."But why?" I pressed, a flicker of frustration igniting within me."Because the truth is not always what it seems,"

|ORION|I teleported back to the base with her in my arms. Kallias and the guards had killed all the cloaked beings.I stared at the cloaked being that the guards held, my blood boiling. “Why is he alive?”“For interrogation.” I nodded as the guards teleported back to Zorzaris leaving me with Astraea in my arms and Kallias.His eyes fixed on her as they held fury, “ What did they do to her?”“I wonder too, let's return to Zorzaris.” He nodded and we materialised in Zorzaris. The healers were already on standby and they rushed to me, taking Astraea from my arms and towards her chamber to treat her.Eloise and Terielle had also returned from the Moon Palace Eloise sobbed at the sight ofAstraea. As the healers whisked Astraea away to tend to her wounds, I watched with a mixture of relief and anguish. My heart clenched at the sight of her battered form, the bruises and bandages a stark reminder of the horrors she had endured.Kallias stood beside me, his expression dark with fury. “She's

| |ASTRAEA|Who was I -before they broke me?Because i remembered.I remembered everything they did to me. And the flashbacks hurt.The chains are broken but am i truly free?Am i a monster or the victim myself?I ran my hands through my hair, my whole chamber was dark as i had shut all the windows. I didn't deserve to see the light. Yet the moon light still managed to seep it's way through.As I pressed my ear against the door, straining to hear any sound from outside, I realized something. I couldn't use my werewolf senses anymore. It was like I was cut off from that part of myself."He's gone," I thought to myself, my voice barely audible in the silent chamber. With a trembling hand, I reached for the door handle, hesitating for a moment before slowly pushing it open.As the door creaked open, I peered cautiously into the dimly lit hallway, my heart racing with fear and uncertainty. But before I could even take a step outside, strong hands suddenly grabbed me, pulling me into their

|ASTRAEA|My voice.My voice was back and he kissed me. As he dropped us back on land, I hit his chest crying again.It's such a fine line between feeling everything and nothing at all."You talked, you smiled. Baby That's progress."He whispered holding my waist.I slammed my fists on his chest crying so badly, "Why did it take you so long to find me?" His shoulders tensed as I kept hitting my fist."Why? What What if I had die-" His finger brushed my lips keeping me shut as his Obsidian eyes glared at me.“Really Star? death? You think I would let death take you? I will fight for you to the end, Yeah?” He whispered in my ears as I nodded, sniffling.We sat beside the lake, I brushed my legs in the cold water while he watched me.“Take off your clothes.” My eyes widened at his words as he kept a straight face. “Show me your scars.” My hands instinctively wrapped around my body, I was insecure. I didn't want him to see how bad I looked until I was completely healed.“But why?”“I want

|ORION|I am proud to be a ruler of Zorzaris.As the sun rose on a new day, I found myself caught up in the bustle of preparations within the palace. Unbeknownst to me, the people of Zorzaris had decided to host a party in honor of Astraea, a gesture of gratitude for her kindness and compassion towards them.“Sire, please sign here.” Lotar rushed to me as I skimmed through the documents before signing them.Other workers stood behind him all holding documents they wanted me to review and sign.“Done.”As I moved through the halls, overseeing the final arrangements and ensuring everything was in place, a sense of excitement bubbled within me.

|ASTRAEA| “Let it go!” Eloise and I dashed through the vibrant landscape in our wolf forms, the sun casting a golden glow over the meadows, I couldn't help but feel a surge of exhilaration coursing through my veins. "Your wolf is stunning," Eloise remarked, her voice filled with genuine admiration as she brushed her fur against mine. I let out a playful snort, rolling my eyes at her comment. "Don't inflate Asana's ego any further," I teased, a smile tugging at the corners of my mouth. As we continued to run side by side, the wind whipping through our fur and the scent of wildflowers filling the air, I felt a sense of freedom and joy unlike anything I had ever experienced before. It was moments like these, when I was surrounded by the beauty of nature and the warmth of friendship, that I truly felt alive. After a while we shifted into our human form, resting on the grass. “I’m happy you have totally recovered. We sh-” "Astraea." Raeya's gentle voice interrupted, drawing my atte

|ASTRAEA|"Princess Astraea," one of the council members spoke, his tone dripping with condescension. "We are pleased that you could join us."Inside the building, a hushed atmosphere greeted me, the air heavy with anticipation and tension. The grand chamber was adorned with intricate tapestries and ornate furnishings, a stark contrast to the solemn faces that awaited me within.I straightened my spine, refusing to be intimidated by their condescending airs. “So you are the council, the ones who make Orion come back from every meeting fuming with anger. Tch.” I said as their eyes widened at my words. Remind me, I’m doing a movie before I forget

The palace appeared different, as if frozen in time, its grandeur obscured by layers of dust and neglect.I looked down at my hand, taking in the minute details, the way my fingers curved, the light scars on my skin. It felt like I was seeing them for the first time, yet there was a strange familiarity to it all as if I had done this countless times before.I was lost in my thoughts and found myself meandering through the deserted hallways, the sound of my footsteps resonating through the ages. .And then, as if drawn by an invisible force, I found myself standing before a grand doorway, its ornate carvings weathered by time.
