Chapter 117

Soma’s POV

“What are you thinking about Soma?” Seff asked, I found feel her wet nose on my leg.

“I don’t know,” I admitted. I didn’t know what to think or what to feel. Why were we stuck in this place? Was it because they had to force Seff back because of how crazy she was, or was it because I needed the protection and this was the only way anyone knew how. “I am trying to figure out a way to get out of here. I felt that power again, it was for a while and then it got cold. I think it might be Oliver.”

“It might be, I mean he is worried about you. I kind of could feel his wolf it’s very faint but I can feel something.” She said to sound more positive. “I don’t think we’re going to be here much longer, I feel the light coming for us. Maybe it’s the Moon Goddess coming to see us before she allows us to leave.”

“She comes and sees people?” I asked.

“Yeah, of course, especially those that are lost and scared. You see she wanted me to come to you when you were a baby because she knew the kind of stuff that was coming for you.” She said sounding like she was walking around. “I tried and that was when your parents got rid of me. I felt betrayed for a long time. I have locked in a dark box all alone not knowing anything, and then she came.”

“What did she do?” I asked.

“She sat here with me for the longest time, explaining why your parents did what they had to do. She told me they were scared that those bad beings would kill you before you were able to bring me forth, and with the magic put in place it would give you some time to learn about yourself.”

“But I don’t know anything about myself,” I said wanting to cry again. “My adopted parents didn’t even tell me I was adopted until I was leaving for New York. They told me if I left that I wouldn’t be allowed to come back. I felt betrayed worse than I do now. At least my real parents didn’t abandon me, they brought me to a place where they thought I was safe.”

“I know, and it sucks that we couldn’t communicate because I would have helped you through everything, I would have made sure you knew you had someone out there that would replace any of the love you thought you had with your adopted parents, but they silenced me. They were told to tell you about me when you were old enough, but they refused it seems.”

“Part of me is glad of that because this is too much to bear right now, but a lot of me is mad at them because they stole away what should have been mine. You should have been mine a long time ago, and there is nothing I can do to take it back.”

“Well we will gain some of our past back, and I will show you everything I know Soma.” She said touching me with her wet nose again. “I promise when we’re out of here I will give you the world and I know Oliver is going to be the same way.”

I thought about Oliver and what he might be going through. I knew I needed to figure out how to get to him, I hoped the Moon Goddess would come to visit and tell me how to get out of here safely. I would ask her to help me understand everything, and I hoped she knew me better than I did. I was afraid to face her because of what happened, I didn’t want her to yell at me because I failed the test. I didn’t even know about this world, and now I was scared to find out more about it. I knew Oliver wasn’t scary, but he probably could be especially if he turned into the wolf he was. I knew about the vampires, I always thought they were in movies but they were real and it was crazy.

“I feel the Moon Goddess, she is coming,” Seff said getting excited. “I knew she was going to come and help us out of this place. Don’t be scared she is a nice person and she doesn’t mean us harm.”

“I know Seff.” I smiled. I was nervous but who wouldn’t be. She was the only one that could get us out of here, and it was something I was looking forward to. I didn’t know how to talk to her so I would let her do all the talking and hope she understands I am as lost as anyone and I would love her help.

Bright light forced me to close my eyes, I wasn’t sure how this was happening as I was blind but then I wasn’t.

“Hello there Soma.” A beautiful voice spoke. “Please open your eyes.

“Even if I open my eyes I cannot see,” I complained.

“Well, now you can.” She said touching my face.

I slowly opened my eyes, my vision was blurry but it cleared up and I was able to see. A beautiful blonde woman stood in front of me, my wolf Seff was white with red eyes standing next to her.

“I am Seline.” She said bowing her head. “I am the Moon Goddess, I have come to help you leave this place as you don’t belong.” She said kneeling.

“Why am I here?” I asked.

“To meet with me.” She smiled. “I know your childhood wasn’t the best, and you know nothing of what you are.” She said touching Seff. “But I am here to clear up any questions and confusion you have.”

“Why didn’t I know what I was?”

“Because dark forces want you and your wolf, I sent Seff to ensure you are safe but when I did that it also sent them to word a powerful wolf was on earth again. Something I hadn’t done in a very long time, so it caught a lot of people off guard and made a lot of people mad as well.”

“So what do they want with me?”

“Well, they want you to do bad things and hurt people, just as an evil person would do.” She said with a sad face. “Some people want the power you have and they are mad because I didn’t give it to them, but they will learn by themselves that having powers come with responsibility and there are only some people that can handle both the power and the wolf.”

“So are you going to punish me because of what happened with Seff and the vampire King?”

“Oh, no child.” She giggled. “What Seff did was to protect you, she brought you here so we could heal you. You are strong, but you still needed to come here to learn from us. You will be a great Luna when Oliver and you decide you want to become one.”

“So he still wants me to become his Luna?”

“Oh yes, that power you felt a few times here and there, that was Oliver. He was listening to his wolf about laying close to you. It was healing and connecting the both of you. You are going to be one soon and it will be stronger than anyone could imagine including me.” She smiled.

“So how does one get out of here then?” I said looking between Seff and Seline,

“Well I will release you, but we’re not quite ready to go back are we?” she smiled. “I know you want to know more about your parents and what you are yes?”

“Well I know I have a Lycan, what else about me that I need to know about?” I said taking a deep breath. I hoped she wasn’t going to tell me something crazy and I would be a weird girl when I went back.

“Well you are part witch too, so you are a magical wolf.” She smiled. “You are going to have to use your magic in times of war, but that won't come until later. You will learn more about your witchy powers from Seff, she will be able to help you tap into it.” She smiled again. “So if you ever want to talk to me call for me and I will come. You are one of the few that have my calling card and that will help you in the future. I promise you dear wolf you are never alone, you will always be a part of me.”

“I understand, but why did you choose me?”

“Because when a child is abandoned by the world, who else is going to keep her safe? I knew you before you were born, I knew what would happen to you before then.” She said with a sad face. “Your real parents are already punished enough, so I will leave them alone from now on, but if you go to them and they reject you they will be punished threefold and that goes for anyone else. I am very protective of you. I promise Soma you will not ever be alone again, Seff will teach you that. Now wake up!”
