Chapter 47

Clayton's POV

When we got back to the pack house Rose just invited the girl into the

kitchen as if she had known the girl all her life.

I stand in the doorway as Rose asks Athena, "Do you like waffles?"

Athena answers by saying, "I have never had waffles."

What kind of person has never had waffles? This girl Athena just keeps

getting stranger and stranger by the minute. I don't like it, one more

odd thing about her and I'm going to kill her.

Rose gets a waffle and puts it on a plate before she sets it in front of

Athena.

"Thank you." Athena says to Rose as Rose hands her a fork. Rose smiles,

"You're welcome."

Rose looks up at me and I mind-link her, 'l don't care if you feel like you

know her or not, I don't like her in our house. She could easily try to kill

you and the baby."

Rose sighs and mind-links me back, “Clay, I doubt she would be able to

kill me when you are standing in the same room.’

Rose then sits down at the table next to Athena and Athena asks, "What

are you naming the baby?"

I grow! as she says that and I walk over to Rose as she sits at the table. I

can feel that Rose is confused to how Athena knows when Rose

couldn't even figure it out herself.

“I'm not pregnant.” Rose says as she laughs slightly.

Athena raises an eyebrow, "Rosalind, you can't fool me.”

Rose sighs, "I don't know what I'm naming the baby yet." Rose pauses

for a second before she asks, "Will you tell me the “long story’ on how

you knew my name right away?"

I sit down in a chair next to Rose as Athena bites her bottom lip while

she thinks on it.

It feels to me like she is trying to come up with a story.

"Let's hear it." I demand.

Athena frowns at me, "Alpha Clayton, you can't demand everything."

"I am an Alpha, I can demand if I want.”

Athena smiles at me and says, "All these Alphas now days are so

foolish.”

"Are you calling me foolish." I ask as I stand up. Rose looks at me

before back at Athena.

"You can tell me the story later if you want. You look tired.” Rose tells

her. Athena shakes her head, "No, I'm fine, but could I have another

waffle? Those are pretty good.”

Rose laughs a tiny bit as she starts to stand up, but I don't want her to

do to much work so I get up quick and grab a waffle before throwing it

on Athena's plate.

"Well thank you Clayton.” Athena smiles. I growl and sit back down near

Rose.

Athena looks across the table at a bow! of raspberries that was left on

the table from someone. She moves her hand over to grab it, but an

invisible force pushed it away.

What. The. Hell. Yup, I don't like this girl. I stand up and growl warningly

at Athena while she stares wide-eyed at the bowl.

She moves her hand to grab it again, but this time it flies all the way off

the table and breaks on the floor — leaving the berries everywhere.

Rose jumps up and stares at the bowl, "how - how did you do that?"

I'm not waiting for any answers; I growl again and make my way

towards Athena. Athena quickly stands up and says, "Alpha Clayton and

Luna Rosalind, I am so sorry! I don't know how that happened! It's

never happened before..."

I growl deeply as I say, "Don’t know how you did that, huh? What the

hell are you?!"

I grab Athena by the arm — but as soon as I do I felt something

powerful, I felt the moon goddess.

I drop her arm and stare wide-eyed at Athena as Rose stands behind

me.

"Alpha Clayton and Luna Rosalind, let me fully introduce myself, I am

Athena Artemis Crescent. My mother is Candra Crescent and she is the

moon goddess."

While I stand there looking stupid and not saying anything Rose moves

so she is standing in front of Athena and says, "You're the moon

goddess’ daughter?”

Athena nods her head yes and smiles, “I'm also the one that picked you

two as mates.”

So this girl standing in my pack house is the moon goddess’ daughter

and is the person that chose my beautiful Rose and I to be mates?

Rose smiles and asks, "Why are you here?"

"I hated being on the moon, we can't even shift into wolf form when we

are there. I wanted to be here with all of the other wolves that my great

grandmother created thousands of years ago, so, I left last night and I

guess I ran onto your territory."

I can't say I don't believe Athena, when I grabbed her arm I felt that she

is from the moon goddess’ family.

"We should go talk somewhere more private, I'm guessing you don't

want everyone to know who you are.” Rose asks as she motions for

Athena to follow her.

Athena does so and we all walk to my office, once we are in I shut the

door and sit behind my desk.

I let it sink in that the moon goddess’ own flesh and blood is standing

on my territory while Rose asks, "You said your great grandmother

created werewolves thousands of years ago?”

"Yes, why?" Athena asks Rose. "I had this weird dream last night, and I

have a feeling it means something.” Rose tells Athena.

Well, here we go with Rose's dream. It probably meant nothing, but it

doesn't make sense on how she knew about the ViciousAsh Pack

without ever learning about it.

"What was in your dream?" Athena asks curiously.

"There were two packs of all males; the ViciousAsh Pack and our pack,

the GreyCrescent Pack." Rose pauses as she tries to remember

everything in it.

To begin with, werewolves were only males, so when we had children it

was with a human. If the baby was female she would not get the

werewolf gene and would be human like her mother, but if the baby

was male he had the gene so the father would take him and run away

to raise his son in his pack.

Of corse, Rose doesn't know any of that because only Alphas and Betas

know.

"There was a battle and the pack that won was ours. The moon goddess

appeared and rewarded the winning pack with a female leader, which

she called a Luna." Rose continues.

Again, another thing only Alphas and Betas know. It is known as the

First Battle — and my pack won, so the moon goddess gave the Alpha,

of our pack at that time, a Luna aka his mate.

"The first Battle,” Athena blurts out. Rose raises an eyebrow, "First

battle?"

"Yea, at the time my great grandmother had made only two packs in

the world, this pack and the ViciousAsh Pack. She had them compete

and the winning pack got the first female werewolf and the first ever

Luna." Athena tells Rose.

"Clayton knows about the first battle, you could've asked him." Athena

shrugs.

Rose looks at me and rolls her eyes on why I didn't tell her and then she

shakes her head, "There's more."

"More?" Athena asks. Rose nods and continues, "The first Luna then

had a baby girl, and the alpha to the other pack-" Athena cuts Rose off,

"The ViciousAsh Pack’s Alpha's name was Elis."

Rose then continues, "Elis said he wanted peace, yet he was going to

kill their daughter, but instead he killed the Luna."

I knew that as well, that's why my pack killed off the entire ViciousAsh

pack; for the loss of their Luna.

"Elis was very jealous and he did want peace, until he saw that the first

Luna and his rival pack's Alpha had a child, known as the first ever pure

werewolf. He wanted their child dead, but the Luna fought back and he

ended up killing her." Athena says to Rose.

"And our pack killed their entire pack for revenge.” I add in as I am

bored with the story.

Rose rolls her eyes at me and smiles before she looks back at Athena as

Athena says, "Actually, a few members to that pack survived and ended

up having bloodlines of their own, so there are a few around still

today.”

I lean forward in my chair.

What? That's impossible!

"But why did I have that dream?" Rose asks Athena.

Athena smiles,

"Rose, you are a descendant from the very first pure werewolf."
