Fated To The Alpha novel Chapter 193

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 193

Kat POV

I was waiting for Seline to show up, we had so much  going on with the pack. My  stress levels were through the roof. I had hardly been sleeping with everything going on. The twins were teething something horrendous, all their teeth deciding to come through at once. Sleep felt like a thing of the past. Dominic was going to Andrei’s on Tuesday and I have been in a state of panic ever since finding out and knowing I would have to confront him, why he would request for me to come had me on edge, making me wonder if this was going to be a cause for the vision.

I also lost my phone, I have no idea where I put it and that was another issue for another day. I yawn looking at the clock, it is a little after  5pm,  is that all it was? My eyes were practically falling out of my head.

The room shutters and I sigh, finally Seline was here. Looking over at her she was smiling brightly at me, please be good news.

“Why are you smiling?” I ask her cautiously. “Because today I want to show you something, I found it fascinating when Celeste showed before she died and also I have fixed the second chance mate issue but first come with me because you get to make  not only a bond, but a vessel bond” She says holding her hands out.

I couldn’t help smiling at her enthusiasm, it was good to see her smile. It almost made me forget she was dying. Walking over I place my hands in hers, the room fizzles and warps and takes a few seconds only for nothing to happen.

Seline lets my hands go and shakes hers before grabbing mine again. The same thing, we don’t move to her realm.

“This has been getting harder, how about you try, you will have to travel between realms anyway when you take over”

“How am I going to transport us, I don’t know how to do it” I tell her.

“Just think of my office, picture both of  us there and relax your mind, breathe in and breathe out” She says. I close my eyes trying to picture her golden light filled office. At first  I feel nothing  and I inhale and exhale trying to picture her room exactly how I saw it last time and I feel a slight buzz under my skin before a suction feeling and pressure.  When  I open my   eyes we are standing next to her desk.

“Perfect, see you will get the hang of  it. Once I  die it will get easier. The fact I couldn’t do it with you present means you are getting stronger and it required  you  to do it” I hated     the casual way she talked about her death.

“So what is the lesson today”

“Pairing mates” She says motioning to the strange mystical fountain. Walking over I peer into the smoky water and I could see the bottom. She swirls her hand in the water and colours appear, glowing different colours before she runs a finger straight down the middle, the blobs of colour moving to one side and I watch as the blurred colours take small forms of wolves.

“So first part of the history lesson” “History lesson, on what?” I ask.

“Celeste first of all, I don’t expect you to have heard of  her before, but  how  did she become the Moon Goddess?” Seline asks, I shrug.

“God!” I tell her and she chuckles, what did she expect me to say?

“Celeste  was a witch, but not  just any witch, she was half Goddess, she was the sister of Venus. Since she was  half  witch her father got with a mortal woman, creating Celeste. She was half human, half Goddess. Venus was a full Goddess and she is the Goddess of love and Celestes half sister” I nod trying to take all this in.

“Okay, so?” I ask.

“Well like I said she was half mortal and a witch. When Celeste was alive in the human world she lived in a village with humans, her mother being one of them and her little brother. They all lived together in a small hut and the village was surrounded by forest, one night Celeste’s mother was killed, and it angered Celeste. Can you guess what  killed  her  mother?”  I  think  for a second,   it could be any number  of things  but   the first word that popped to mind was “Wolves”

“Correct, wild wolves had become desperate, not enough. Not enough wild   game to feed hundreds of villagers and the carnivores, so Celeste wanted to protect her village, her sister who she didn’t know always kept a close eye on  her. Venus found  her mortal sister  quite fascinating   and kept watch over her. Venus tried to warn her that doing a spell like that was dangerous, Celeste however didn’t care. Her intentions fuelled by her anger, the villagers were scared and Celeste wanted to do something, she wanted to ensure her brothers safety, so Celeste and a few coven witches decided  to do a  spell, level the playing field if you will, only it required a human sacrifice and the sacrifice of a wolf”

“Celeste became that sacrifice, what is it with gods and sacrifices?” I shake my head and Seline laughs, “ The things one would do for love” She says and I nod.

“Anyway no one stepped forward obviously, but Celeste  couldn’t  bear the thought   of her brother being killed so she tried to do the spell without a sacrifice, Venus warned her against it but of course she didn’t listen as no teenager does. They created the spell and it was a full Moon, they had everything else except the human sacrifice. When they cast the spell, they quickly realised something was wrong when the humans suddenly      shifted. The spell was supposed to give them extra senses, can’t beat the enemy, join them, they should have been given speed, sight, sense of smell all that comes with being wolf but in human form” She pauses for a second.

“Only when they shifted she realised her mistake, Venus tried to warn her and she didn’t listen and suddenly her entire village and every village in the country was forced to shift into beasts, savage like real wolves only bigger  and stronger, instincts ruled over them making them crazed. Nearly her entire coven was killed all but her, it  is  believed she was spared as punishment by the gods. Forced to watch her mistake, this is  also where all the myths come from. She didn’t create wolves she created something worse, she created Lycans”

“At first they could only shift on a full moon, if the moon was out, they couldn’t help it. Their bodies transformed and they roamed the earth killing everything they came across. In a bid to stop this, the villagers set out to sea, in search of new  lands  and places to live,   trying to separate the colonies of Lycan’s because their uncontrollable urges were killing everything and leaving nothing” Seline explains.

“So that is how so many exist today, she didn’t just transform her village she transformed an entire country?” I ask.

“Yes,  she  underestimated   her  power being half Goddess, so  with  the  coven  it only enhanced it, like a plague in a sense, affecting every human it reached. Celeste angered the gods and so they locked her into this realm to make sure she did no more harm while the monsters she created continued to roam the earth. They told her she had to fix it, undo it but she couldn’t without the original coven elders that helped cast the spell. So for centuries   she  tried, the monsters   she created were feared and humans hunted  them, sought them and killed them while they were in their human forms,  hence  when they  found out about silver harming us, and it did. It harmed Lycans, killed them”

“ So when did you become the Moon Goddess?”

“Time wasn’t really measured or accurate so I can’t say for sure, but the saying I am as old as dirt would be close” She chuckles.

“And you created werewolves?”  Seline nods pointing to the fountain.

“Yes, So Celeste was stuck in this very realm and they called her the Moon Goddess because the only day she could leave here was on a full Moon to try to reign in the Lycans, but it never worked”

“ Now my parents were king and Queen, making me a princess of our kingdom, my parents died.

Lycan’s got them when they were travelling to another kingdom by horse and carriage. I was raised by my maid until  my coronation, I wanted to eradicate Lycan’s what I wasn’t expecting was to fall in love with one”

“Wait, you were human?” Seline smiles, her eyes sparkling.
