Alpha Adryan

Chapter 24: twenty two

The leaves scrunch under her bare feet as she walks forward. She had no idea about where she was.

She could tell that it was night time, by how the owl hooted in the distance and the cool air whipped

around and nipped occasionally at her skin causing shivers to run down her form.

The scent of death lingered around in the air along with the hint of something that had been recently

burned. She could see the aftermaths of it too. The ground beneath her was burned, the grass was

dark as coal and charred.

She felt weird, something wasn't right. It took her a few minutes to realise what, which caused her eyes

to widen like saucers. She could see. She could see everything clearly. She couldn't understand why

she didn't pick upon it earlier.

She looked around, it felt weird, taking in the colors but it was a totally gloomy atmosphere around her.

A scream from inside the house had caught her attention, before she could stop and think she felt

herself moving forward, and into the house.

She didn't have a trouble following the screams, it was like a second nature to her. Well it was since it

was her own packhouse. The one she had lived for nineteen years.

The scream felt oddly familiar to her. It wasn't until she entered a room she had realised why. The door

was open a slit and she could see the familiar figure screaming while there was a wolf on top of her. A

Rogue.

"Mom" Jade screams before running to help her.

As she reached her mom's crouched frame, she tried prying off the rogue from on top of her, but what

happened next baffled her. Her hand went right through their body, the rogue didn't even feel her touch.

Nothing.

She watched helplessly as they both fought on the ground. It was as if she was invisible or more like

they were. Upon further inspection, she had managed to catch their figure which appeared to be

slightly transparent.

A hand on her shoulder startled her out of her train of deep thought, turning around she came face to

face with a beautiful woman.

She looked ethereal and absolutely gorgeous. Her long black hair reached her waist in a beautiful

pattern, while her green emerald eyes twinkled like bright stars in the sky. She was wearing a white silk

dress that reached the floor, it fit her frame quite well. She looked a little pale but it added to her beauty.

"Who are you?" Jade stumbles back in shock.

This only caused the woman to smile at her. For some unknown reason, Jade didn't feel threatened to

this woman's presence, infact her wolf was calm. Really calm.

"Well, people call me different things but the most know one would be Selene" the woman replies with

the smile still etched on her face.

"Wha- you're Selene....as in the Moon Goddess?" Jade's eyes widen with shock as she stares at this

beauty with parted lips.

The woman just nods her head.

"Is this a joke?" Jade asks, she turns towards where she had seen her mother and the rogue only to

see that the space was empty, no one was there.

She turns towards the Moon Goddess.

"Where did they go..." after thinking a moment she asks Selene, "Did you do that?" .

"You mean your mother and that rogue? Yes I did. It was the only thing I could think of at the moment to

catch your attention. It was a illusion" .

"I figured" Jade replies. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Selene smiles at the young girl infornt of her, she was smart. This girl, Jade was meant for great things.

People might call her species an abomination, but she was far from one.

Infact one day, the time would come when she would be the one to rescue all of those people who

misunderstood her abilities and called her names.

"Why am I here?" Jade asks Selene, while looking around the room. A thin layer of dust coated the

room, like no one had ever been here for a while. She had caught onto the fact that it was after the

rogues attack. This whole mansion was abandoned.

"I needed to talk to you about something, because I know you would have questions when certain

things happen in the future" Selene stops for a second, wathing Jade closely before speaking again

"also about your mate...".

This seems to catch Jade's attention, with furrowed brows she asks "what about him?".

Selene sighs, "I know you are wondering why I paired you up with someone Adryan. He is hardheaded

and stubborn." Moon Goddess rolls her eyes.

"But, there are somethings that are beyond our reach. It needed to be done, your Mating plays a great

role to overthrow the prophecy" Selene was tormented, she couldn't tell Jade about the prophecy now.

It wasn't the right time. There was a few more years before things starts playing as stated in the

prophecy.

"I..don't you know that he keeps pushing me away? That he keeps hurting me again and again."

"I know, I know. " Selene replies then mutters something under her breath along the lines of 'stupid

man'.

"Just have faith no matter what happens. Besides, the baby is getting stronger day by day." The moon

goddess looks at Jade's stomach which now had a visible bump. A smile graces her face while hearing

the child's heartbeats.

"The child is going to be special, one of its kind. You and Adryan need to keep him/her safe".

Jade just stares at her wordlessly.

"Also one more thing" Selena says.

"What-?" Jade's voice gets stuck in her throat when she feels hands being placed on her eyes.

"It's time Jade. You're maturing into something meant for great things. You must embrace your powers.

Making you blind was the only way to obscurse your powers for so long" the sweet voice of Selene

sounded distant.

Jade felt like she was on the edge of something, she could feel the hard uneven ground ender her bare

feet.

suddenly she felt someone pushing her. A scream rips put of her parted lips.

▪

Jade sits upright on the bed with a jolt. 'Was that a dream', she thought to herself. Her breathing was

uneven. She felt herself tremble. Why was Selene speaking in riddles. What prophecy was she talking

about?.

She placed a hand on her bump, she could feel the baby moving around, it was growing fast with time,

she looked seven months pregnant now. even though it's been just three months. Withing next two

months she will be holding a baby in her hands.

Suddenly the door to her room is thrown open, a woman with auburn hair enters her room with a

baseball bat clutched between her fingers. Her blue eyes widely looking for an intruder.

"Who is there and why did you scream and is the baby okay?" Scarlett asks multiple questions in one

go. Scarlett had woken upto Jade's loud scream making her panic thinking that something had

happened to her.

"Scarlett?!" Jade says with wide eyes. It was back. Her eyesight was back. She stared wide eyed at the

woman infront of her.

So this was what Selene was talking about.

"I can finally see everything" she whispers.
