Chapter 255: Restore balance...
Selene POV
"So..." Jared continued when he saw I was too stunned for words. "To restore this balance, the moon goddess must reveal her child and let the ’Fates’ take care of him or her. But I heard it’s a he though,".
My blood ran cold. "No," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. I’m a descendant of the first Alpha Kiba. My death will restore the balance. That’s what I was told. That’s what I still believe...".
Jared’s laughter echoed in the car, making me flinch at her cruel his words were. "You’ve been lied to, Selene. your death will change nothing. True, you’re a descendant of Alpha Kiba – and you’re also a direct descendant of one of the twins who were thrown into the boiling cauldron that fateful day,".
My breath hitched, my mind struggling to process what Jared was saying. This was the exact opposite the moon goddess had told me that other day. "No... that can’t be true. I’ve always known who I am ...
Jared shook his head, a twisted smile on his lips. "You don’t know who you are. You’ve been living a lie. The moon goddess must have hidden the truth from you and everyone but I know. One of the perks of being a hybrid. I know exactly what you are,".
"H-How did you know about the moon goddess visiting me?"
"I am a wizard, Selene," he laughed "We see everything,">
I felt as though the ground beneath my feet was crumbling. All these months, everything I had believed about myself, about my purpose... was a lie. "If what you’re saying is true..." my voice trembled "Then what am I?"
