Nikkia Pov Chapter 8

I feel Freya take over all control as I fall into the back of her mind. What the hell is happening? What does she mean we are the descendents of the moon goddess? I feel Freya pushing me all the way out of earshot in her mind, falling into nothingness. I feel sleep taking over as Freya lulls me to sleep. Not fighting it at all, I fall into a quiet sleep. 

Talon Pov

I stand to my feet, watching Freya curiously. She really is the most beautiful wolf I'd ever seen. Her fur so white it glowed. I look down noticing the black patch on her chest again. Not noticing I had walked to her, I reach my hand out and stroke it. Freya looks down at me, purring. My wolf purrs back as I glance into her eyes. Her eyes were the green of the forest, bright and full of life.

I don't know how long I stared into her eyes when I heard a cough behind me, followed by a threatining growl from Freya. 

"I am sorry my Queen, but we have urgent matters that need to still be discussed."

"Very well." Freya speaks into our minds, as she plops herself down and looks back into my eyes. "I will answer everything I know." 

"Let's start at the beginning then, shall we." Luke takes his seat at the table again, the other elders following him. Freya watches their every move like a hawk, only looking back at me when they were all seated. 

"As everybody knows, the moon goddess came down after a human being, being Samual, fell in love with her and begged her to come to him. The moon goddess made a human form and came to live on earth, believing everything he told her. She blessed him with the wolf, and with that came the power of magic and immortality of a sort." Freya lays down, laying her head in my lap. "The life with Samual was everything she wished for, until he got bored. He got the power he wanted, and he had a women on the side the entire time." Freya snarls loudly, the sound echoing in our heads. "He then went on to have four kids, one being Aruthra. There were many more with other women but they are no threat. One got killed, and the other two are the Elders of the hidden pack. Because of the bratrayel, the moon goddess was upset and furious. She made the mate bond, so hopefully no one else would have to go through the same thing. What she didnt know was that the mate bond would affect her too, and her mate would be the son of her punisher. She knows that she herself works with the universe, but she couldn't help but to fight it. Aruthra never gave up and showed her the love that she neded." She nuzzles into me, relaxing as she inhales my scent.

"Why are we not aware of the betrayel? Why is the pack hidden?" Luke asks, resting his head on his hands, staring at Freya curiously. 

Freya lifts her head and looks at him. "After the betrayel, Samual went on to create his own pack of werewolves. He had mutiple women, multiple kids with all of them. Those kids went on to have more. Since he was not reproducing with his true mate, each decendent lost more stregnth and power, becoming the werewolves you are today. Samual used his power for evil, driving the human towns against him. The humans finally attacked, pushing the pack into hiding. Samual dissapeared, leaving his two kids in charge. Everybody was taught what Samual wanted them to believe." 

"Where was Aruthra during all of this?" I look at her as I ask, wondering how Nikkia ended up in that pack. 

"Aruthra was the neutral one. He was keeping an eye on the pack. He wanted them to succeed, but his brothers and father would not listen to him. He kept himself a part of it, and would sneak away to be with Aspen." 

"Aspen?" Me and luke question in unison. 

"That is the human name the moon goddess has chosen. Aspen ended up falling pregnant. They were scared for what that meant, and for how strong that would make the child. There were hunters chasing Aspen down, so they decided the best would be to hide her in the pack, oblivious to who or what she really is." 

"And what is that? What or who is she?" Luke questions. 

"She is the light. She is the the moon on earth. She has the full power of the wolf, and full power fo the moon." I gasp, understanding the danger she is in. Everyone would want to use her for her power. "Exactly, Talon." Freya replies to my thoughts and I gasp.

"You can hear all my thoughts?" 

"I can hear all of your thoughts. You all let them go wild. Your walls need to be stronger to hide your thoughts." Freya says, looking at all the Elders, then at me. I sigh, knowing my minds not as strong as my body. 

"Does Nikkia know all this?" I ask.

"No, but its almost time to tell her. When we wake her aura, we wont be able to hide it and everybody will know where she is. We need to be prepared, she is not strong enough to protect herself." 

"Can't she hear everything you're saying right now?" Luke asks. 

"No, she is asleep."

"How is she asleep? Wouldn't you be asleep too." I question. 

"No. Were as you guys are your wolf, and your wolf is you, me and NIkkia are seperate, but the same. We are different entities. I was chosen for NIkkia. Your wolf was born into you." 

"How is that possible?" I ask in confusion, not understanding how she was chosen. 

"When Aspen was pregnant with NIkkia, she called upon the wolf and they gave her me. I am born from the first bloodlines of the wolf." 

"I guess that makes some sense." I sigh. 

"The moon goddess works in misterious ways, my mate. Sometimes she doesn't even know how she does it." 

"Okay, so who exactly do we need to worry about coming for Nikkia? What are we preparing for?" Luke chimes in. 

"We are preparing for the first borns, and the hidden pack. Samual is out there somewhere, and he will come for her." 

"Where is the moon goddess and Aruthra? Why can't they protect her?" Luke questions, coming off snarky. 

"The moon goddess has gone missing, and Aruthra has not been able to find her. He has been looking for years. " Freya growls in anger. Standing up, she takes the two steps she can to get in Lukes face. Feeling her aura leak out, Luke whimpers. "You will protect her, for she is your Queen. We are done here." She turns to the door, hitting it open, it breaking off it shinges. Crouching, she goes to leave. "Come." She speask to me, and I willingly get up to folllow her out. "We will talk later Luke." I follow her through the door, ignoring whatever Luke is yelling behind me. "Where do you want to go?" 

"I want to go run." 

My wolf growls in excitment as I let him through. Pitch black with a white patch on my chest. I feel Percy start taking full control as he winds through the houses, making his way to th epath into the forest. Freya catches up, looking like she is at a jog while Percy is running at almost full speed. Percy snarls and starts going faster, as Freya easily passes us and dissapears into the forrest. Our pads hit the dirt faster as we continue following her, deeper, until we come upon a pond. Freya pases around it, smelling the ground. 

"You found my pond, I see." I smile in my mind, Percy guiding us toward her. 

"Your pond?" 

"Yes. The women that saved me, saved me here." I sigh remembering the memory. 

"What women?" Freya snarls, stalking towards us. 

I take a step back, "When I was a child I was abanded out in these woods. I was attacked by a bear. Somehow i got away, limping and bleeding to death. I was huddled in a small cave when a women found me and brought me here. She said I would do great things. She bandaged me up and sang me to sleep. When I awoke in the morning she was gone, but all my wounds were completly healed." I say it all super fast, Freya stopping as Percy lets me shift back. I fall to the ground, just looking at her. 

"This is the moon goddesses pond." Freya sighs into my head, sitting on her hunches. 

"So the moon goddess saved me?" I gasp, feeling sort of special. 

"It would seem that way, my mate. Were you a werewolf before she found you?"

I think. "I never saw my parents shift, but they also were never around." 

Freya stands, coming closer, sniffing every inch of me. "You dont smell like your pack. You smell stronger." 

"Well I am their Alpha." I laugh. 

Freya pokes me with her nose, and tries to laugh back. "No, you smell more werewolf." 

"Hm. I have no idea." Laughing I stand up, mindlinking my beta to have clothes for me at the edge of the forrest. "Come on, it's getting late. Big wolves still need rest too." 

"I will let Nikkia have her form. She will still be asleep so you will have to carry her." Freya nuzzles into me, sniffing in my scent again. I pet her soft fur, still mesmerized by how white it is. 

"I will gladly carry her to bed." I watch as Freya shifts, catching Nikkia before she hits the ground and swooping her into my arms. Kissing her forehead, I stare at her perfect face. Porcelin skin shining under the moonlight. Her white hair was showing as the red dye was washing out of her hair. I will keep her safe, I think as I start walking back to the pack.
