My breathing was soft, slow as I slept in Darius’s arms. I could hear every sound around me, feel the hard body of Darius beneath me as I drifted into a deep slumber.
The air slowly grew heavier, and the space brightened, making the darkness vanish until I was standing alone in a plain white space with nothing around me
I knew I was sleeping, that this was nothing but a dream – even though it felt so real, so real I could even feel the cold air sending a shiver down my spine.
Why was I here again? This was the same space I’d been in when I got my memories back, and now I was here again without knowing why.
All I did know was that I had been brought here for a reason.
So as I stood in the white void, I wasn’t scared and didn’t react, instead, I waited patiently, waiting to see what would happen.
And after a minute passed, something did. The space began to glow brighter, and I hissed sharply as the brightness blinded my eyes. I had to cover them with my hand, cursing under my breath as they stung.
“Fuck… alright, this isn’t a dream,”
I muttered under my breath just as the light filled the whole void, and after a second, the glow finally faded.
And at that moment, I sensed a presence in front of me, and just as I was about to open my eyes again, a voice echoed through the space. Almost immediately, a startled gasp escaped me, every hair on my body standing on end when I recognized the voice.
Of course I did—it was that soothing voice that had spoken to me when I died, the one who gave me a second chance at life. And when I opened my eyes and slowly lowered my hand to see, I was right.
The Moon Goddess.
Standing before me was the mother of werewolves in her true form. She was smiling, dressed in white, the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. She looked ethereal, so much so that even as a woman, I couldn’t help but stare at her in a daze.
Oh my… I was really standing in front of the Goddess!
My eyes and mouth fell open in disbelief and shock, and as I kept staring at her without moving, her smile widened and she spoke.
Soft, like the calm sound of waves.

“How have you been, my child?”
She asked, and in that instant I snapped out of my daze, quickly falling to the ground and lowering my head before her. My body trembled as I spoke.
“M–Moon Goddess, please forgive me for my disrespect.”
I stammered, not daring to look her in the face, and almost immediately, an amused laugh spilled from her lips. Before I could react, she leaned toward me, her hands reaching for mine, making me look up at her in a daze.
“Silly child, it’s okay. You don’t have to be so scared. This isn’t the first time we’re meeting, you know.”
She said, helping me up, and as she did, she reached out and cupped my face.
“How are you doing, child? Is everything okay now? Are you happy? Is your soul finally at rest?”
She asked all at once, and I swallowed hard, noticing the twinkle in her eyes.
She looked happy, like she genuinely wanted to know. Like I was speaking to an old friend.
At that moment, I couldn’t help but smile, my body relaxing slightly as I nodded and replied,
“I am happy, Moon Goddess. I am finally at rest. I am happy. Thank you for all your help. Thank you so much for looking after Darius… and for making me remember.”
She smiled at this and moved her hand higher to stroke my head, like a mother to her child.
It made my heart warm, made it flutter.
“That is good, my child,” she said. Then she stopped stroking my head and leaned back, her expression shifting, serious now. My heart began to beat faster as I stared at her, my smile slowly fading.
For some reason, I felt that something was wrong, and I wasn’t mistaken when she began to speak.
“Nyssa, I need you to listen to me carefully, okay?” she said, and I swallowed nervously but nodded.
“Yes, Goddess.”
She smiled sadly before continuing.
“I am happy that you have finally met him, but it seems that happiness won’t last long, Nyssa. Something is going to happen, something I cannot reveal or interfere with. Something that must happen, because fate has to run its course. And the end of that path… rests with you. Your choice will determine how it ends.”
I stared at her in confusion, my eyes narrowing at her words. I couldn’t understand what she meant, but it was clear something was terribly wrong.
My frown deepened as my body began to tremble, a bad feeling settling deep inside me.
Before I realized what I was doing, I reached out and grabbed the goddess’s hands, leaning closer as I

stammered in fear.
“G–Goddess, I don’t understand what you mean. Please, could you tell me? What is going to happen? What choice do I have to make? Please, tell me!”
My gaze shook with fear, but the goddess only looked at me with pity and shook her head.
“I am sorry, child. I cannot reveal it. I cannot interfere with your fate. What happens depends on how it unfolds, and how it ends depends on the choice you make. But know this, child, no matter what happens, you will lose something important in the end no matter what your choice is.”
She stepped closer, her sad smile softening as she muttered her final words.
“Howevee, you are not weak, and you were never weak. Find your strength through it all, and fight. Don’t give up, no matter what comes,”
The moment her words sank in, tears spilled down my face. I shook my head, the fear clawing deeper inside me. Something was wrong, terribly wrong and I knew I couldn’t face it alone. The thought of losing Darius, of us being torn apart, made my chest tighten painfully.
I couldn’t let that happen.
No.
I opened my mouth, ready to plead for her help, but my words dissolved into nothing. Before I could even react, a powerful force slammed into me, knocking the air from my lungs. I gasped as my body jerked violently, and in the next instant, everything went dark.
Yet through the darkness, her final words echoed softly.
“Believe in yourself, Nyssa.”
