A Gift From The Goddess Novels & Stories

Adrian Dropping to the ground, I scream at the goddess, “Save her, please?” The goddess stands before me, her form radiant and powerful, a being of light and grace that seems to encompass the very essence of the universe. She regards me with eyes that hold ancient wisdom and boundless compassion, her presence filling me with a sense of awe and reverence. “Your sacrifice has not gone unnoticed, brave one,” she speaks, her voice a melody that resonates deep within my soul. “The spirit of Savage, the uniter of beings and protector of the realms, shall live on in the hearts of those who remember her courage and love.”

She motioned for us all to hold hands and then closed her eyes. “Beautiful Goddess Selene, we give you our thanks for your love and your light. We thank you for blessing us with your chosen daughter Zelena. We promise to love, cherish, and protect her. From now until forever. In the Goddess we love” “In the Goddess we love” we all chorused. ~

"You seem like you have a lot on your chest lately. Something you need to get off your mind?" "Oh, no," she replied, her voice smooth and condescending, a thin veneer of politeness masking the venom beneath. "I'm perfectly fine. I'm just wondering," she continued, her tone dripping with mock curiosity, "why the goddess would make that kind of mistake, choosing a low-born like you to be her vessel. It seems...uncharacteristic, wouldn't you agree?"

I can’t even process the weird things happening right now, and nobody else seems to think it's weird. But it’s totally weird. “Well if I’m weird honey you are too! So, here it is. Our line is a direct descendant of the Goddess herself. She can’t exactly be everywhere, watching everyone all the time. The gift doesn’t go to everyone, cause obviously not everyone can handle it,” she says, snapping at the end and pointing her finger back at my brothers. Then she wiggles it and laughs. My jaw falls, and I drop to my knees in front of her. My hand moves to my birthmark.

Then she stood up and placed a painting of the moon Goddess in my basket. “I don't…” before I could deny, she shook her head. “It's a gift from me. May your love thrive under the blessings of the moon goddess.” She gave her blessings for us. It sounded so beautiful. I smiled, trying to hide my tears. “Thank you! It's the nicest thing I have ever received. I'll cherish it forever.” I replied, looking at the painting. It was quite beautiful. With the Moon goddess bathing in the silver light of the Moon.

"Yes, Goddess Athena," she said. Many believed she was the reincarnation of Goddess Enhui herself. Others claimed she was the second goddess sent to Earth to protect humanity from the spirits of sin. Legend has it that Athena emerged from Lake Gayank—born of its mystical waters—and even as a child, her power was unmatched.

“I am Fury, a celestial fairy. I have come to deliver your birthright, but I haven’t decided which gift it is. Instead, I will give you the empty blessing and it will develop on its own, since you are a blessed lycan queen.” “Time out. A celestial fairy is giving a lycan a blessing? Isn’t this supposed to come from the moon goddess?” “This is from the moon goddess. Like Gujin, I am a messenger of the gods. I am to help you with your trials ahead by giving you an appropriate gift.” Trials ahead? I did not like the sounds of that. “What kind of trials?”

The priestess shivered at these words – how could she make Alpha Hendrix aware of what he had done? Suddenly, a figure appeared before her in a brilliant light – the goddess of the moon herself! She spoke with an ethereal voice: "I will give you three gifts that will aid you on your quest. First, I grant you strength and courage to face any foe or challenge; second, wisdom so that you may understand all things; thirdly, knowledge so that you may see the truth in all things." The priestess was filled with awe and gratitude, but also a sense of dread. She had been given an impossible task – how could she possibly make Alpha Hendrix aware of his mistake?

She noted that the goddess looked tired and her light had dimmed. “This will help you. This will ensure your child can withstand what you need to do. Use my blessing wisely, I only get to give one out every few centuries.” The goddess smiled. “Your light?” Nora whispered. “It takes a part of me each time I do it.” The goddess said letting go of her hand and touching her cheek. “You are so very special Nora. Go save the world.” The goddess whispered and tapped her on the forehead. Nora’s head fell back and she crashed onto her bed. Her head hitting the bed made her jolt up. She was out of breath as if she had been running.

They had done what no army, no weapon, no magic could achieve: they had turned love into the ultimate weapon, a force that annihilated evil itself. Jaiyana allowed herself a moment to breathe, feeling the dawn warmth on her skin and the fierce heartbeat of her companion beneath her. This was the crescendo she had fought for, the final victory she had earned. The morning light glinted off the Chakram, Vajra Spear, Trident, and her pendant, a signal to the world: the goddess and her tiger were unstoppable.
