Chosen By The Moon By Izabella W Novels & Stories

Ken asked again when he got no reply. **** Flashback – 15 years ago **** March 17, 2016. “Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you Bella………” Little Isabella blushed as her family sang and danced around her joyfully. It was her seventh birthday and the family was celebrating her in their usual manner of celebrating each other. Isabella was blessed to have a very joyous family and pack around her, even the pack had celebrated her also this morning as they danced around her and praised their upcoming Luna. She was the only chosen Luna by the moon goddess amongst the other wolves, so she was somehow treated specially.

I don’t care what she thinks, or who she has been here - she is the FORMER Luna and I will make sure to remind her as much if she tries anything tonight! The pack settles as we ascend the scene, murmurs of whisper going around the sight of the large party. They thought this was a Luna announcement alone, but we have some surprises up our sleeves. “Dear Jewel Pack!” Elijah booms, and everyone becomes quiet. “We are gathered tonight to present and celebrate our new Luna - my mate Isabella Moon.” People cheer sporadically. “She is capable, sweet, caring, beautiful and strong. I could not have wished for a better mate than her. And tonight we will make her Luna of this pack.” Wait what? I look a

If Blood Moon had a heart, that heart bore the name Isa. “We are here,” she began, her voice firm, “to recognize Eloise Everard as Moon of the Blood Moon Pack—not by bond alone, not by marriage alone, not by blood or political convenience, but by mutual choice between her, her mate, and this pack.” My eyes burned. “A Moon does not walk behind the Alpha; she walks beside him,” Isa continued. “A Luna does not rule with fear; she holds the pack’s roots steady when the wind tries to uproot them.”

His tone was stern as he explained the ceremonial rules. “Each of you will take a turn stepping up onto the stage. Once you are on the stage, you will touch the Sacred Slate. The she-wolf who awakens the Sacred Slate is the chosen one. She will be the Prince’s Luna.” Two soldiers stepped forward, straining as they carried out a massive, ancient slate. Even with their Lycan strength, I could tell they struggled to bear the weight of the mysterious slate. It took both their efforts just to lift it, a testament to how heavy it really was.

Zoe tilted her head slightly. “Interesting.” Kelly frowned. “What?” Zoe leaned closer, her silver eyes suddenly glowing faintly. “Did you know,” she said softly, “that the Moon Goddess decides mates?” Kelly rolled her eyes. “Yes, obviously.” “Good.” Zoe smiled sweetly. “Because that means Zack had absolutely no say in choosing me.” Zack tried very hard not to smile. Kelly looked confused. “What?” Zoe stepped even closer. “Which means,” she said gently, “that if you were promised the Luna position…”

"It’s a celebration. The night you announce your mate." I crossed my arms, feeling the defensive wall go up. "Why do I even get to choose? Did you pick Cain, or did the universe just hand him to you?" "The Moon Goddess chooses," Selene explained. She smoothed out a sweater with a slow, careful touch. "She finds the strongest bond. That’s the pull Selah will feel. That’s the one she’ll want." "Then why the parade? Why dragging me through four territories if the choice is already made?"

Chapter 96 With a heart pounding fast against her chest, Isabelle waited for an answer. She looked at Deluca with expectation, hoping that he would pick her, at least this once. Isabelle told herself that as long as Deluca picked her this once, she would not keep anything from him. She would tell him all that he needed to know about Nathan and his plans. However, Deluca's next words disappointed her to no end. "You were never going to become my Luna, Isabelle. I don't know what got into your head and why you started to believe this, but I would never make you my Luna. I was always looking for the chosen one, and that is not you, but Nora! You and I..."

"Elariana, the goddess of the moon and the night creatures" Hmm, such a strange title for a deity, till now, I was able to identify the other deities by their titles but this was different. It was hard for me to understand what kind of deity she was. The goddess of the moon? Was she the literal goddess? Uhhh, I found my thoughts drifting again. I quickly snapped back to reality, I had been thinking too much these days. "Elara was the deity in control of the night creatures and she was imbued with more power from the moon than the other deities thus making her stronger than the rest"

I told her. “What do you mean?” Elaine demanded, “The last chosen daughter to be appointed a guardian was Selena. She has been the most powerful of all the past Triple Goddess’s. If this girl needs a guardian, then she is either just as powerful as Selena, if not more so, or the Moon Goddess is anticipating trouble”.

I counter. I look out at the horizon. The woods are dark, but they aren't scary. They’re just woods. The wind is just wind. The night is just the other half of the day. I lean my head on Kaleb’s shoulder and he wraps his arms me and the baby, encasing us in his warmth. "What are you thinking?" he asks. I look at the moon. It’s full tonight. A bright, silver coin hanging in the sky. It chose me twice. Once to learn, and once to love.
