The Moon Goddesses Descendant

Chapter 5 The Moon Goddess

Samantha POV

    Darkness. All around me. All I see is blackness. Slowly a bright white light began to blind me. As my eye’s adjust to the light, I am standing in the middle of a flowery field with a quiet stream. Birds are singing and there are puffy white clouds in the sky. I stand there in aw looking around me. Then memories of what had happened flood my mind.

I had drowned.

I look down to find myself in a simple fitted white dress that goes all the way to the ground. Closing my eyes and taking slow breaths, as not to panic to hard, I look up to see the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in front of me. She stood well over 6-foot-tall with long flowing white hair that went well past her waist. I moved closer to her as if I had no control of my own body.

“Come my child there is no need to be frightened of me I promise.” She said with all the grace of a royal and her voice sounding like music.

“Who are you?” I ask

“My child you know me well, I am Selene the moon goddess.” She says with a smile

I kneel before her in shock that I had not realized it sooner. I feel shame and embarrassment that I asked such a dumb question to begin with.

“Rise little one you do not need to bow to me. I have watched you since you were but a glimmer of light in your mother’s womb. You are meant for better and a far more powerful life than you allow yourself to dream of.”

“How is that even possible your grace, I am nothing but a mere human. As is it I do not see how you could pair me with such a wonderful man as the Royal Alpha is.”

“Well that my dear one is key to your powers, he can help you in your training as well as awakening your true potential.”

“Wait?” I say confused,” what powers I am a human… right?” I ask

“No child you are so much more. Your bloodline is as strong as his. In due time you will meet her and you will understand. For now, child I must leave you but I will always hear your prayers. You and I are closer than anyone may know but you need to return to your world.”

“I’m not dead!?” This was getting crazier than I thought my own mind could come up with.

    She shakes her head know and points to my hand which now I see a single vibrant red strand of light twisted around my wrist and ring finger. As I follow it, I see two wolves. One is white all over except the tips of its ears which are black, and the other is an all-black wolf. Both are standing every bit of 4 foot off the ground. Every bit of them ripples with power and I can tell they are both alphas. As the black one rubs his nose into the white one’s neck, I feel the strange tingles as if my mate were touching me. I look to the moon Goddess but she just smiles at me and nods. I, however, cannot seem to put all the pieces together. As they leave and the red-light fades, I turn back to the Goddess.

“How do I get back home from here?”

“You must feel the strength of the bond and use that as your guide. He has not left your side this whole time Samantha, he is truly worried for you. He has proven many wrong by waiting for his one true mate and hasn’t once gone to another for comfort. It is quite funny to hear his wolf complain to me about not finding you sooner.” She says with a little laugh at the end.

“I promise he will love you as you should be but you must trust him as well as prove you are not just someone to be protected. Now go my love return to your mate, you will see at midnight on the day of your 17th birthday be ready for you will meet her.”

And with that everything fades and I am back to darkness. She had said to follow the bond but how do I do that. I begin to concentrate on the red light again and it appears along with the black wolf. I stare into his big green eyes and all I can think of is my mate.

“What is your name sir?” I ask while stroking my hand behind his ears

‘Xander little one, and you are all ours. I promise we will never fail you again or hurt you. I have been waiting a very long time for you my sweet rose.’

“Can we go home now then, I am sure there are people waiting for us.” I say aloud not knowing how to work the mind-link.

‘Yes, my Samantha we can, I am sure my human is on the edge not being able to get in contact with me as I am hear with you.’ He licks my face and I giggle.

‘Let’s get you home and into our arms.’ As he guides us out of the darkness.

    As I come to, I try hard to open my eyes but they are heavy and I cannot seem to muster the strength to. I start by moving my toes and slowly work my way up to my hands. I begin to feel the touch of someone holding my them. Now that I can focus better, I am realizing that both my hands are being held. On my left I feel this light warmth radiating from it, however, on my right there is a stronger grip holding me. As I slowly moved my hand I feel it being tightened in a grip and begin to feel the tingles and Sparks of my mate. I hear someone talking softly saying my name and begging for me to open my eyes.

‘Come on baby girl I just felt you move, open those pretty Little eyes for me.’ It Was soft at first a low whisper that became louder.

“That's it, I see them moving, you can do it I promise, I'm here I'm never going to leave you.”

As I open my eyes, I strained to see a pair of gorgeous forest green eyes staring back at me. For some reason all I can think of is the wolf name Xander.

“Xander.” I say in a harsh whisper. My throat is killing me and I need water.

“Hold on let me get you some water, Whitney go tell the doctor and get your brother and Alpha Mark here as soon as they can.” Asher says.

“Here you go, drink up.”

“How long have I been out for?” I ask after I finished the water.

“You've been out for 8 days now. I was beginning to worry how long you were going to stay under for. Plus, I lost contact with my wolf last night and I worried even more.” Asher says with down cast eyes

“Speaking of, why did you call me Xander?”

“There was a wolf that brought me back out of the dark, his name was Xander and he had green eyes that looked exactly like yours.”

“What color was he?”

“He was jet black, even darker than my father. He reminds me of you.” I say with a smile as tears fill my eyes.

“I promise I did not try to dye on purpose I don’t even know what happened. It was all so fast and I couldn’t fight the water. Please I’m sorry.” I start panicking as I remember drowning and my last thoughts of wanting my mate.

“No, no, no, no baby girl you are okay. I know you didn’t do it on purpose I was there I saw what happened. If it is anyone’s fault it is my own for not chasing after you when you left the school.” He coos to me as he pulls me into his arms.

    The smell of his sent alone is enough to calm me down as I bury my face into his neck. He rubs slow circles around my back and rocks be back and forth while sitting in the bed with me. I was so consumed in the warmth of him that I did not hear the door open back up.

“Good morning Samantha.” I hear a woman’s voice and soon realize that it is Cheyenne.

I turn and look to see her, Mike and Whitney walking through the door.

“Well more like early morning that is. It is 3am.” She says with a smile as I blush hard while slightly pulling away from Asher making him whimper at the loss of my touch. Truth being told I didn’t want to leave the comfort and security of his arms and for some reason I was okay with that.

‘How is it that days ago I was so afraid and worried about what would happen with me being a human and now I am so excepting?’ I questioned myself. I must have been making a weird face because Asher began to panic.

“Mi Amor, what is the matter, what hurts, is it your head, maybe you should lay back down.” Asher began to franticly worry about me. Suddenly my dream began to come back to me. ‘Prove you are not just someone to be protected.’

“Asher please, I am fine I am not in pain just a little confused about all the emotions I am feeling all at once. Trust me I am stronger than I may look.” I say while caressing his face. He relaxes, but only a bit, as I lay back and let Cheyenne look over my wounds.

She steps back after lifting my hair with a gasp and we all look at her.

“What is wrong doc?” It is Whitney that asks this time before Asher or I get the chance to.

“Well you will be able to leave once I finish all these check-ups but I need to run some more blood work on you because something very odd for you being a human has happened.” She says while looking very puzzled.

“Okay going home is the good news, I get that but what is the ‘odd for being a human’ thing about?” Asher asks loudly but not quite in is Alpha tone. I close my eyes knowing where this was going and I was NOT ready to open that can of worms without dad and the boys here because I only wanted to explain it once. And as if on cue the door burst open with my dad running in throwing his arms around me, making me gasp and making Asher growl.

“Oh step off it boy. You may be her mate but goddess help me she is still my daughter and I will throw you for a loop pup.” Mark growls back to which Asher’s eyes begin to turn black. At this site, before anyone could react. I jump from the bed at an unhuman speed, ripping my I V line out in the process and stand in between the two now raging Alpha males I care so much about.

“ENOUGH!” I shout making everyone, including both dad and my mate bow to me. As I can feel the power rippling off myself, I begin to get dizzy and I realize my arm is bleeding badly. As dad and Asher are still in a daze, Mike is the first to rush to my side and place pressure on my arm.

“Dammit, I can’t get the bleeding to stop. You ripped your arm open with as fast as you moved” he cursed under his breath. This snapped Cheyenne out of her trance and she rushed to get the suture kit to stitch up my arm.

“No Chey, it will be fine in a few minutes I promise. Look I got it to stop’ I say as I remove the gauze, everyone is looking at me in aw as the wound is healing in front of them at an incredible pace.

“How is that even possible?” Now Cody and Eli say at the same time causing me to laugh. Goddess I missed this that is for sure.

“I will explain everything when we get home and out of this hospital. I really hate being here any longer than I have to.” I say with a smile and a shake of my head.

“But you just woke up from an 8-day coma. Are you sure?” Asher finally asks coming to myside still in a haze as to what has happened to cause Him to submit to ME.

“Yes, I am now please stop worrying about me.” I say with force and irritation.

“Not likely my love” he mumbles and shakes his head.

“You know I can hear you right?” I look over my shoulder and smile at him when I see is wide eyed face not believing that I could hear him.

We walk through the doors of the hospital and across the cold yard to the pack house so I can get some much needed clothing, because needless to say a long coat with nothing but a hospital gown and boots on is not very warm on this chilly March morning, but oddly, I didn’t find it cold. Dad however had a fit when I had said ‘let’s just walk home’.

I started walking up the stairs to the room I had, I felt a hand on my back and realized it was Asher’s.

“You do know I can walk on my own right?”

“Don’t even think that I am going to let you out of my site after the week we have had, or should I say haven’t had. I have been so worried I would lose you forever and I had only just got you.” He breathes on the back of my neck making my hair stand on end. He slowly kisses down from my ear to the junction of my neck and hums as he nibbles where his mark would go.

“I am telling you this now Asher, I am not rejecting you but I am not ready for you to claim and mark me love” saying with a small smile while leaning into him.

“I know and I am not pushing you to do anything you do not want to but I will ask that you at least let me stay by your side please?” he begged in a quiet and pleading voice.

“Only if you promise to behave yourself and not try anything before I am ready.”

“I promise my love, not until you are ready.” He gives me a small kiss before we walk into my room.

A bit later, after a very silent and un-nerving ride back to our main house, we all sit down at the table in the dining room. Alissa walks in and the minute she sees me she begins to weep and falls to her knee’s. I free myself from Asher’s hold and run to her, hugging her as she cries.

“I thought you would never wake up. I was so lost without you. All of us servants missed your smile while you help us work and the humming, singing and dancing you would do with all of us. Needless to say it was depressing without you.” She smiles and hugs me even tighter.

“Alissa can you please get us all coffee and I will be in to help make breakfast as soon as I am done talking with dad.” I ask her but before she could even reply, wouldn’t you know it my overprotective mate starts in.

“NO! You will be going to rest. You just got out of the hospital and you do not need to work as a servant anymore, you are my mate and the future queen of the werewolves, there is no need to do manual labor.” I just roll my eyes after shooting him the ‘we will be talking about that later’ look and I turn to Alissa

“He is right hun. You did just get home so rest please.” She stands and walks to the kitchen to get the drinks.

“So… where would you like me to start?”

“Why not start on what you remember while in a coma?” dad says

“Well to sum it up I met the moon Goddess her-self and thought I was dead when she informed me that I am indeed not human. She also told me that I am closer to her than anyone in the living knows, also that I have powers and far more potential than I even know. She showed me Asher’s wolf Xander and he is the one who helped me wake up. And lastly she said something will happen on my birthday but she did not specify what that might be.” I lay it all out for them and they all stare at me with wide eye’s

“What about you healing so fast. That was beyond any normal even buy werewolf standards” dad replies.

“Now that I do not know. I myself am surprised by it but I can say I’m not mad about it.” I shrug

Yep this is going to be a LONG day.
