Chapter 227: The moon goddess...
Selene POV
I murmured an excuse as I left the men, I needed to clear my head.
Everything was making sense now... so much more. My mind flitted to what that fox had said a year ago when I had first arrived at Greyhound with the girls.
"For one, you’re Xavier’s Luna and ran away just to be with the Lycan King. You left your husband, your pack and your duties and don’t get me started with your cursed children... Your children are blue-eyed wolves... babies born with their wolves are a curse to any wolf clan. Wait until the Lycan King finds out...".
My mind pondered on it as I walked... because the more I thought about it, the more I couldn’t help but wonder why I should die. Why I had to choose between me and my baby? Even if there was an opportunity to choose my baby and he died? Then when will the circus end
I found myself going towards the small I had been at that night that the strange woman appeared. As I neared it, I wasn’t surprised when I saw a white silhouette standing at the beak of the hill overlooking Moon Whisper. It was as if she was the one who summoned me here.
I hastened, breathing hard when I finally joined her. Her eyes were glazed with sadness as she turned to smile at me before turning back to stare at nothing. "You know... when you had escaped that plane crash and survived, I honestly thought you’d be so bothered about yourself but when I saw you trying to keep the babies alive... I thought you were foolish," the woman chuckled. "I thought you were simply clinging too much to something you weren’t so sure about. You see, babies are unpredictable variables and there’s no telling if one or all of them will turn out right,".
She sighed and turned to face me now "But now I understand it, Selene. I understand what it means to have that mother’s instinct. That love for a human you could easily write off since you’ve never met them before. Now, I understand why you wanted to keep them alive... why you want to protect the one in your womb... it’s all in the maternal instincts and I’m sorry for thinking you foolish... because it seemed I have become one," she chuckled sadly.
"What did you do?" I inquired gently.
