Nysera: The Goddess of Secrets Volume I – The Forgotten Goddess Chapter 4: Ashes of the Forgotten ​Names had power—or so the priests often said. A god's name was etched upon the glowing Pillars of Heaven, spoken in the prayers of countless mortals, and remembered long after kingdoms had fallen into dust. ​Nysera's name had received none of those honors. It had never been carved upon the Pillars, no heavenly bells had welcomed it into existence, and no worshipper had ever whispered it in prayer. It had been given for only one purpose: to remind her that she was nothing.

by Ethan Choi His name is Thorran Savage although he preferred to be called by one syllable nickname “Thor”. Yes, just like the God of Thunder, he’s our god. We call him our god because we had no other choice. Thor is the strongest of the strongest hence there is no comparable word other than god.

When you have Alpha blood coursing through your veins, you enjoy more merits than other wolves; strength, power, extensive vision and hearing abilities that surpass that of any other high ranking wolf in the pack, and most importantly, your wolf can make use of your human form without having to shift. With a final glance at Russel and Cayden, Adal bolted out of the school and into the forest.

Eileen screamed out her lungs as her clothes got ripped off her body. Eileen sucked on her breath with her eyes closed as she stood at the back of the guards that led her to God knows. After her clothes get ripped off, she realizes that that has always been done to every other lady married off to Alpha Odysseus just to know her birth chart and medical chart. She realized any of the ladies that failed the test would be sent out probably back to her pack or maybe enslave them, who knows? Eileen had hoped she would fail but she passed within a couple of seconds which she had to take as her faith.

Just when I thought I was winning, Xavier pushed me back harder till I landed on the ground heating my head. Nyx winced in pain blood sizzling down. *You think you are strong huh?” His voice was loud in my head. I growled as his claws scratched my fur. Nyx snared in pain trying to fight back but his grip was tight. “You are no Enigma… Once an Omega always an Omega, don’t you ever forget that.” His canines sunk into my throat, Nyx howling in pain as everything started fading. "Sage..." I whispered as though I could feel him but couldn’t tell.

The struggle on Jacob’s face is awful. But Hermes just waits. Doesn’t push. And I love him more for it. I love you, Josefina, Hermes links. I love you, too, I send back. Finally—finally—Jacob steps forward and hugs him. It doesn’t last long, but it’s something. It’s a start. I smile and turn toward Alexander. “So… which gods came over to help us?” He kisses the tip of my nose, making me giggle, then turns with me still in his arms and points. “Loki and his whole chaotic crew. Anansi. Coyote. Raven. Maui. The Monkey King. And the Kupua.”

Alpha Nathan wore black jeans and a white shirt while I wore my white dress. “Are these your ceremonies?” I asked, wanting to break the ice. I had to find some way to approach the man. His head snapped in my direction and I couldn’t help but shy back in my seat as I feared his reaction, my heart racing against my ribcage “our pack had different ceremonies, that is why I’m asking”

During the banquet, Celia had played with the Sterling family's ancestral oracle blocks like a curious child. That night, Celia cast nine blessed results in a row. The entire hall had been stunned. Everyone praised her as the daughter-in-law destined for the Sterling family. He had smiled with delight back then. Because those nine blessed casts were a miracle he had created with his own hands, weighting the blocks with lead in advance. Everything had gone smoothly. Everyone envied Celia. That young girl who used to hide behind others had been cherished so publicly for the first time. What had he said to Caroline then?

“Are we allowed in here?” Noah grinned. “I’m the Alpha King. I’m allowed everywhere.” She rolled her eyes but followed him inside. The cave opened to a hidden overlook, the sunset painting the sky in fiery hues. Noah leaned against the cave wall, arms crossed. “So. Do you have any questions for me?” Emma crossed her arms too. “A million.” “Start with one.” She exhaled. “Why me? I’m human.” Noah’s gaze burned into her. “The Moon Goddess doesn’t make mistakes.”

I slowly sat on the white sand and watched the lady still standing to where I left her. I am waiting anxiously by the shore. Did my plan work? Christ! This is killing me. My heart is pounding really fast! I couldn't stand waiting for her like this! I swear I was praying then, she moved towards the seashore, towards me. Thank God! I did it! What a relief! She stood directly in front of me. I raised my head to face her and with that I smirked. " What can I do for you, goddess?” Oh yes! It's true! She's a beauty! She must be Venus if she was ever real. "Oh, shut up! Stop making fun of me will you?!" she mumbled pouting her lips like a baby before sitting right beside me. I could feel my heart
