MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 6. The physician's declaration
AITHNE'S POV "What?!" Father uttered, his blue eyes wide open as he stared at the physician in disbelief. "Reynold, what did you just say?" He thundered. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I listened to physician Reynold repeat the same words he had told me only moments ago, to my father. "I'm sorry, My Alpha." Reynold bowed. "The lady has lost her chance to walk again because of the multiple damages in either of her calf bones. It would have been corrected if she had been rescued earlier. Now it's impossible to treat as it's too late for a surgery correction. Also, if she tries to shift in the future, it would cause her death." He carefully repeated, his head still bowed. I watched Father turned to look at me and I saw the faintest hint of tears gathering in his usually sparkly blue eyes. We were in the private room in the clinic and Jeyre -- my personal maid and closest companion was with me. I was seated on a wheelchair --damn, how I hate that fact-- and her hands were ge
MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 7. In the depths of her subconscious
AITHNE'S POV A teary smile reflected on my face as I trailed a sentence in the novel I was holding with a finger, my eyes taking in every word in it. The novel was one of the series in Odin's favorite collection. I was in the library -- my comfort haven in recent times -- in my father's castle, away from the gossipy eyes and hushed whispers of the servants and pack members as well. For about a month, this had been my routine every morning. I was existing but not living. I had nothing left, nothing at all... Varda took everything from me. Including the last hope I had left. She took away my dreams, my future and my happiness. She didn't spare me even the bliss of being an only child. She didn't let me be my father's daughter anymore. Somehow, she had succeeded in ruining my life, no doubt. But it was all so maddeningly humiliating because there was nothing I could do to stop her... nothing at all. I sighed, wiping tears from my eyes and closing the book the moment I
MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 8. To leave Mooncrest?
AITHNE'S POV I had decided to use myself as an evidence to my father in hopes that he would believe me but he had suddenly became too busy to see me, after I was discharged from the clinic and now at home, here in the castle he lived. Yet, I wasn't able to see my father. I was now living a depressed lifestyle, subjecting to my room and personal library only. Initially, I had taken several trips to town but the false story of my brave rescue of Morwen filled the air and the losses I had suffered as a result of my 'supposed' bravery, only earned me the sympathetic looks of the werewolves' society. I was fed up with Varda's and Morwen's false display of loyalty and care towards the entire members of Mooncrest Pack. I was irritated that I had become the gossip of society. And many were already saying I couldn't be the leader of the pack in future because of my permanent disability. Varda had been right when she told me that I would only end up ridiculing my father if I
MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 9. No longer 'home'
AITHNE'S POV I was silent for a little longer than necessary, as I pondered on Majesty's words. It's obvious she's had enough of this environment as well. Mooncrest has become an unfamiliar place for us since the death of our mate. *Are you sure?* I finally said. *There's.. nothing.. here.. for.. us.. anymore.. I.. want.. to.. leave..* *But what about father?* I reminded. *We'd.. come.. back.. certainly. But.. only.. after.. a.. long.. time.. so.. we.. can.. heal. Mooncrest.. doesn't.. feel.. like.. home.. anymore. It's.. now.. toxic.. and.. not.. good.. for.. you.. for.. us.* *Majesty, are you sure?* I repeated. *I.. am.. certain.. But.. I.. don't.. think.. you.. are.* She's right. I'm not as sure or convinced about this as she is. I sighed, outwardly. *I would think about it.* I finally said. *Father.. would.. be.. fine. I'm.. sure.. Untill.. we.. return.. at.. least.. he.. should.. be.. fine.* She reassured. Jeyre leaned off me and grinned. "You were
MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 10. A new home
AITHNE'S POV "My lady," I raised my gaze from the book I was reading and turned to Jeyre beside me. "We've arrived at the border of Fieryflames Pack, Eris must return now before your absence is noticed." She continued and I nodded. "I agree." I said, just as a footman came and opened the carriage door and Jeyre alighted. "My apologies, my lady." Eris appeared in front of the open carriage and bowed to the waist at me. "It would have been a pleasure to see you through to your destination but I must return to Mooncrest and report my presence before the Alpha." "I understand," I smiled. "Thanks for your selfless services to me and my late mate so far. Your efforts would never be forgotten, Eris." "It's been a pleasure to serve you as well, my lady." Eris lifted his gaze towards his sister briefly. "Thanks for looking after my sister and I and giving us a home even after the death of our mother." He paused, and Jeyre looked emotional. "Your absence at the pack house would b
MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 11. Touring Elgarion
AITHNE'S POV~VeMiCa Restaurant~ "Here's your Derita Pasta Frittata." "Thank you." Jeyre and I said as the lady carefully dropped the tray on the table and served us. "You're welcome." She smiled, leaning upwards. Then she suddenly paused and leaned down slightly, inclining towards me. "You're obviously not from around here." She said and my mouth opened slightly in surprise. "I mean, it's way too obvious given your fashion sense." 'By the goddess!'I swore internally and I felt Majesty's mocking chuckle within me. 'I see what you're doing.' I telepathically retorted at her. 'Remind me to go shopping with Jeyre immediately we get ought of here.' The curious waitress was still talking. "...yet, you seem familiar with our restaurant's most special cuisine. Also, I sense a powerful aura around you." Her eyes fell on my lower body and a flash appeared in her eyes. Pity! Pity? I don't need that from anyone around here. "It seems you might have a sad story you may want to s
MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 12. Becoming curious
AITHNE'S POV From the corner of my eyes I could see he was getting closer and closer, his graceful strides covering the distance between him and Regan who was still standing beside our table-- whose warm, cheerful expression, I observed, became clouded at the sight of the man. Well, why not... Even an Alpha would tremble at the recognition of the Alpha King talk more of an... I observed Regan once more. I could sense a strong aura around him but I couldn't place his goddess given identity. Hmm, regardless... I think it's okay to be this way. But why would the great Alpha King of Elgarion, ruler of the mighty Crystal-Moon Dynasty, visit this restaurant? Well, that's because...*Focus..Aithne.. Focus* Majesty chided.*Yeah, right. What am I even doing?* I decided to ignore such thoughts and focus on my current situation. Whatever the case may be, the owners must be honoured to have him visit their coast. But why do I feel Regan seems displeased by his presence? Even though he h
MOONLIGHT SERENADE - The Dance Of The Goddess 13. The tale of the Enchanting Waterfall of Elgarion
AITHNE'S POV "EWE? Is this the place?" Jeyre asked as she helped me alight from the huge transportation medium I just learned was a bus. There's so much to learn in this city and about this city. Its advancement was unimaginable over the years. To be honest, I didn't think the Alpha King to be young. I had imagined him to be a man in his late fifties of sixties like my father. And was actually taken aback when I confirmed my suspicion of him being the Alpha King. I wondered if he had been the Alpha King for a long time already and if he was the force behind this massive technological and infrastructural advancement in the Capital City. "Aithne, I'm so happy you chose to come to Elgarion." Jeyre suddenly said, excitment clear in her voice while helping me settle into my wheelchair again. "I know right," I smiled, loving the way the wind gently toyed with my hair and enjoying the feel of the evening breeze on my skin. "I'm so glad, my lady." She stood behind me and placed h
