Semua Bab The Moon Goddess's Reborn: Fated To The Mad King: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Amara’s POVThe sky was clear. Too clear for a morning like this. A mournful stillness hung in the air as if the heavens had held their breath.The sun had risen pale and the trees stood frozen in solemn reverence. I should have found comfort in the serenity, but all I felt was dread. Afraid of what laid ahead of me.We walked in a line as Morgana and I led the procession. Both dressed in plain white tunics and scarves. No jewelry. No markings. No colour.Lucy stirred softly inside me. Solemn.I didn’t need to hear her to know how she felt . How she dreaded what might become. "You’re not alone, Amara." She voiced. "I'll fight with you."I nodded, giving a light smile to her comforting words. But was that be enough?Was she enough?The procession came to a stop at the base of the jagged hill, where the Cave sat on.One of the elders stepped forward—Elder Tirajo, his weathered face cold and stern as his white robe fluttered against the cold wind.He lifted his hands and muttered an i

A huge gust of light twirled around me, throwing the cave into chaos as lucy hung suspended in the air, growling and cursing.I could feel her bones crack, her heartbeat dropping with each passing second.The dark weaves grew stronger, overpowering the lights as they formed into shadowy mists.Lucy screamed as one of the weaves formed into a sharp dagger and pierced into her chest."Help me, Amara!" She cried as the weaves dug into her body. "I can't take this anymore."I panicked, feeling Lucy's life slip away as the weaves grew stronger.I didn't know what to do. This was my first time wolfing out fully. I couldn't control Lucy under normal circumstances,let alone now her life was in danger."Hang on, Lucy." I say within her, looking around the cave when my gaze falls on it,The necklace.It must have snapped when Lucy morphed out.Shit!The necklace lay on the floor, at the farthest part of the cave. Lucy and I were still suspended in the air. There was no way I could reach it."Yo

Lilith peered at me like I had just said the strangest thing she had ever heard.“Poison ivy?" She muttered, staring at me in disbelief. "Why would you ask such? Only a witch can forge such concoctions and witches are extinct.""Look, it is a long story." I say, rubbing my forehead with my fingers. I spend the next few minutes giving her a breakdown of Morgana and Rebecca's sorcery dealings."Wow," She blurted, "That's a lot of conspiracy going on."She falls to her knees and tilts Morgana's pale face.I looked away in irritation.Morgana's veins had gone black, bulging against her skin like parasites feeding off energy from a host."Poison Ivy and Shadow rot shares a peculiar trait." Lilith finally said. "They corrupt the host, make them weak and feed off the host's energy."She continued, " It is said that witches were able to forge poison ivy with the use of Shadow rot. If you are able to kill off the rot, you can save the person infected and there is only one way."I peered at her

"You damned, bloody oathbreaker!" one of the remaining elders– Nathaniel, hissed as he spat at Lan, "You betrayed us!"Lan turned to him, a calm smug sitting on his lips. "Betrayal is such a heavy word, Nathaniel." He said, spreading his arms with mock grace. "Some of us were born to rule. Not grovel around a shady moon goddess as pathetic yes-men."Nathaniel’s eyes flared with rage as he lunged forward, aiming for Lan. But the blade pressed tightly against his throat by the guard behind him, halts him instantly."You won't get away with this, Lan," he growled, breathing heavily, "The Moon Goddess will hunt you down and grind your soul to ash."Lan's laughed, Cain joining him. Both of them looking at Nathaniel with mocked amusement."The Moon Goddess?" Cain scoffed, "She’d have to go through the Dark One first."Nathaniel stiffened. "So it’s true. You’re going to unleash him."Lan didn’t answer. Instead, he turned towards the doors as they opened.The pack clan entered, led by Alpha K

***~~Amara~~***Daughter?I muttered to myself as I watched mother cheer happily with Lilith.She called Lilith, daughter?I stood rooted to the ground, barely able to decipher what was playing in front of me.Why would mother refer to Lilith as daughter? And what was Lilith doing here? In my house? In my clothes?And Lilith. She looked like she was comfortable here, Like she had lived here forever.I watched as mother chatted gayly with Lilith—happy, both of them not even seeming to know that I was standing in the room.My stomach churned with rage as I stepped forward, stretching my hand to touch mother but as soon as my hands landed on her, it went through her.What the hell?I did it again, same thing.And just when I try to reach out to her for the third time,a huge gust of wind swept around me pushing me out of the room."Mother!"I screamed, stretching my hands towards her as the wind pushed me further,Further,And further,Until I vanished.
