Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 184 Katya POV I was about to give up, I was hung up on 5 times already as soon as I mentioned who I was. They didnât even give me a chance to explain what I was ringing for and the disrespect was really starting to get to me. 5 Alphaâs answered and I hadnât even had a chance to speak to a Luna yet.
Dialling the next number relief flooded me when a woman answered. Just as Ezra and Mateo walked in. They both sat on the couch across from the desk. âHello?â
âHello, yes hii.. I was wondering if I could speak to Luna Terraâ
âYou are speaking to her, may I ask who is callingâ
âQueen Katya and I swear if you hang up on me, I will come over there and shove that phone up your bony assâ I blurted out expecting her to hang up on me. She laughs softly.
âThat wonât be necessary, but if you insist please be gentle on meâ She laughs and I let out a breath.
â Sorry every person I have called has hung up the moment I said who I wasâ I tell her.
âLet me guess all of those people were Alphaâsâ She asks.
âThat would be correctâ I tell her and she sighs.
âYes, you made quite a show at the Alpha meeting and upset a few people but that canât be helped. So what may I do for you?â She asks.
âI am trying to see if I can get some help with changing a few laws but I need Lunaâs sign of on itâ
âHow many do you need to sign and are you sure we can sign off on it?â
âAll of you and law says Alphaâs, Lunaâs are also Alphaâs I tell herâ I tell her knowing that a lot of the Alphaâs were still unmated and I needed every single Luna to sign off on it for it to be accepted and looked at.
âIs this about that boy, I saw an email about him, he is your brotherâs child or he was looking to adopt?â Terra asks.
âYes but I have gone over a few laws and there is a couple that definitely need changingâ I tell her.
âIt is probably best if you stop ringing around, the Alphaâs donât like change but I am glad to see a woman in the top seat for once. Donât be discouraged, I may be able to help though. Can you get to Marrick ville tomorrow at all. I know it is a few hours away but twice a year we have the annual Luna get together, you are new and may not know of it yet. But it is at 11AM tomorrow. If you can get there we will all be in one place and best of all, no Alphaâs, they donât like attending Luna functions, even though we are forced to all of theirsâ She tells me.
âYes that shouldnât be problemâ
âGreat, I will message you all the details, but I must be going before my Mate realises who I am on the phone to, the last thing we need is to have the two days a year we get of peace cancelled, I will text the information to Alpha Ezra. I am pretty sure I have his contact details hereâ She tells me.
âThat would be great, thank you Terra,â I tell her.
âYour welcome Katya, just know you have me in your corner, not everyone is afraid of change and about time things got rattled around here. I look forward to speaking with you more tomorrow, but I must go. I will see you tomorrowâ She says.
âThanks again,â I tell her before hanging up and running my fingers through my hair.
âShe didnât seem completely opposed to you shoving a phone up her assâ Mateo chuckles, shaking his head.
âI know I shouldnât have said it, but every bloody Alpha kept hanging upâ I tell him.
âYou can say what you want Kat, you are their Queen. But be prepared to argue tomorrow, some of those Lunaâs can be quite cattyâ
âThatâs fine, I will just have to sharpen the claws thenâ I tell him.
âSome of the Alphaâs may show up tomorrow, usually a few wait outside for their matesâ Ezra warns and I huff but not much I can do.
âI can handle it,â I tell him.
â I know, I just want to prepare you, I will come with you tomorrow in case any issue arisesâ Ezra tells me and I nod, I also had to see if Sage wanted to go too, we could pick her up on the way.
Grabbing the phone, I start dialling Andreiâs number when the door opens. Marge sticks her head inside the office.
âWe are out of nappies, I donât suppose someone can run into town to the shop?â She asks and Mateo hops off the couch. âI will go, do we need anything else?â
âSome more milkâ Marge tells him and he nods, following her out and shutting the door behind him.
âWho are you ringing?â Ezra asks while getting off the couch and coming over to me.
âI was going to ring Sage to see if she wants to come tomorrowâ Ezra hums in agreement and I was about to hit call when he hung the phone up.
âCall her in a minute I want to speak to you firstâ He says and I swivel in my seat to face him.
âWhatâs up?â
âYou havenât shifted in two days, you need to shift tonightâ
âItâs only a Crescent Moon tonightâ I tell him and he shrugs.
âStill better than nothing, you promised you would shift every night and it has been two daysâ Ezra says. I sigh.
âWhy do you hate it so much?â Ezra asks, âyou always try to avoid shiftingâ
âIt makes me miss Koraâ I tell him, I loved shifting but I also hated it. I missed having her and no matter how long I have gone without her now, it still felt weird being in that form and not having her voice in my head.
âWill you please shift tonight?â
âOnly if Maddox and Ares come for a run with meâ I tell him and his lips tug at the corners.
âI am sure that can be arranged, Mateo will love to be able to go. I will ask Marge if she minds watching the kids for usâ He says before leaning down and pecking my lips.
âRing Sage, tell her we will pick her up at 7 AMâ He says, passing the phone back to me. I watch him walk out and was about to dial Andreiâs number when my skin ripples and goosebumps rise on my arms. I hang the phone back up.
âAbout time, where have you been?â I ask Seline as she appears in the room. She looked tired again and she moves over to the couch and to sit down.
âI am fine, how have you been?â She asks and I get out of my seat and move to her side before sitting down next to her.
âYou look tired,â I tell her.
âIt is difficult for me to portal here at the momentâ She tells me running a hand through her golden locks when I notice the blue veins streaking across her arm and hand.
âSeline?â I ask, grabbing her hand and turning it over. It looks like spider webs crossing her skin.
âI am fine Katya, now tell me what is going on with you. Why do you need to speak to me so urgently?â She asks but I shake my head.
âNo, you are hiding something and I need to know what is going onâ Seline sighs and I see her aura falter. It flickers like an electrical current went through it.
âDonât tell me it is nothing Seline. I am done with the riddles and the lies. Tell me what is going on with you nowâ I demand and she raises an eyebrow at my tone. I watch as she chews her lip nervously, something I have never seen her do before.
âI am dying Katyaâ She tells me and my heart jolts at those words.
âWhat, how? I donât understand, you are a Goddess, how can you die?â I ask.
âI wasnât always a Goddess Katya, there are consequences for everything and I accept mineâ She says, reaching forward and cupping my cheek, her hands were chilly and I place my hand over hers, leaning into her touch.
âHow, when did you find out?â I ask her trying to make sense of what she was telling me.
âI knew what I was doing, I knew the price I would pay. But I officially realized when I could no longer see your future, that of your mates and your children. I have been losing some of my gifts slowly but it has started already. You may have noticed yours becoming strongerâ She says. I donât know what to say but Seline continues and goes on to explain after a brief pause.
âI need you to know this was my choice Katya, I knew what I was doing the moment I decided to bring you back. When I brought you back, I gave you a piece of myself just like Celeste gave to meâ
âWho is Celeste?â I ask her.
âThe first Moon Goddess, she was my creator, the creator of Lycanâs. She gave her life for me and made me who I amâ
âI am not sure what you are telling me Seline, laymanâs terms please â I tell her rubbing a hand down my face, I really needed to get a good nightâs sleep, my brain felt like mush. She inhales before letting out a breath.
âCeleste created Lycanâs, I was one of them. Just like you I was a Queen of Alphaâs, the last Queen of Alphaâs. I gave my life for my kingdom and also like you I was blessed with the gift of life. I exchanged my life for my kingdoms, I died for them and Celeste saw this and was in awe of what I did so she granted me my life back, giving me a piece of her soul. Only a Goddess can create another Goddess or a God, so when I died she brought me back. My powers grew and strengthened while hers got weaker. Eventually Celeste told me what she did, told me that when my time came I would take her place, that when I died, I would become the next Moon Goddess. She said that she trusted me to make the right decisions and guide her Lycanâs and choose their mates. She tempted Fate to bring me back and I did the same with youâ
âSo I am going to die?â I tell her, horrified. What about my mates, my kids?
âNo, not now, hopefully not for a long time but when you do, you will take my place and the fates will be yours to guide, yours to alter. You are a living deity and when you die you will become the Moon Goddess your people pray toâ
â I admit over the centuries I became lonely, the repetitiveness and the loneliness of being the Moon Goddess became tiring. Then you were born and I watched you grow, I watched you fight for what was right, watched you get everything I dreamed for you and more, and you gave it away for everyone else, just like I did for my people. I saw the Goddess you could be. The Goddess I knew you would become so I made you one, but you are also a Gemini wolf and I wasnât expecting it would take a toll on me the way it didâ She says flicking her hair over her shoulder.
â Celeste stayed a Goddess until my death, but the piece I gave to you to bring you back was bigger than I expected because with it I brought your children back too. I tempted fate and I thought I would be the same, but I am deteriorating faster than expected. I knew it would happen, I just thought I had more time but donât worry Katya I still have time left, so what is it you need help with?â She asks.
I was shocked by her words and also horrified. I didnât want to be a Moon Goddess, but saying that I didnât want to be Queen either. If this is what Seline gave me I would make her proud, I owed her that much at least.
âFirst of all my children, they have been acting strangeâ I tell her.
âYes, I have been watching, unfortunately with my dwindling power I canât see their fates or even choose their future mates anymore. I can control the fates of everyone else but not my own and since I gave you a piece of myself that now extends to you and your children. I canât help with any future knowledge with them only what I saw when I brought you back, but I have been observing and I have enough knowledge now I can give you some insightâ
âLike what, because honestly I am at a loss, especially with Marabellaâ I tell her.
âYes, when I brought you back I thought both children would be Gemini wolves, instead it split the Gemini between them, one light, one dark.
Marabella will have to learn to control it but I do fear her mate will be darker then her when older, power like hers will seek out darkness, you would have noticed with Dominic, how his power couldnât touch yours because you are also tainted with dark magic, instead it feed your power, itâs also why when the madness that comes with being a Gemini affects you, you seek out your children, their power acts like a beacon calling to your power.
I also noticed Marabella and Eziah have been mindlinking each other showing me how strong they will beâ She tells me with a laugh.
âSo she was mindlinking?â
âYes, they are twins, they communicate even if it is only pictures for now. I doubt any distance would ever be able to stop their mindlinking, their souls are entwined linking them togetherâ She explains and it did make sense the Gemini split between them but they were twins and sharing a power.
âThough I fear with Marabella the darkness will taint her like Dominic if she doesnât have a buffer to help keep her groundedâ
âWhat do you mean?â I ask.
âBoth of your children are like you. Neither have a wolf but I am willing to force fate one last time for both of them. I wasnât expecting their powers to split, I simply thought they would contain both but when I realised they didnât. I looked into ways to help them. I can help them but it may speed the process of my death upâ
âThen you canât, I wonât let youâ
âI am already dying Kat, Marabellaâs fate I canât tamper with without huge consequences, but I can add to her future. I canât change it but I can add to it, maybe then she will find happiness in the endâ
âWhat do you mean?â I ask now worried for my daughter.
âWhen Marabella was born I got glimpses and her future was dark, darker than I expected. She will suffer Kat and I want to help. Skeletons in the closet Kat, hers is not one I canât die with on my conscience, so you will let me do this for the twinsâ
â What did you see?â I ask her.
âI saw her kill herself, I refuse for that to be her future, unfortunately with my dwindling power I can only do so much. Like Celeste created the Lycanâs, I created werewolves to stop the eradication completely, by allowing human mates and that is how werewolves exist now. It also made you all more humane, Lycanâs were savage beasts. Unfortunately my power is too weak to create new wolves, so I have had to recycle some old souls but luckily you also had some volunteersâ
âSome volunteers?â I ask.
âYes, give me your hands Kat, I will take you to meet themâ Seline says and I place mine in hers.
