Chapter 65: Chapter 65 - The Legend of the white wolf and the curse on moon goddess

THE SACRIFICE AND THE EMERGENCE OF THE WHITE WOLF

"Very well then" as soon as she said this, four people, all from the families of royal wolves (alpha, beta, gamma, and delta that is... the Luna queen of the alpha family, eight-year-old son of the beta family, sixty-five-year grandmother of gamma family and teenage daughter of delta family) fell on the ground and started screaming loudly while the body of four other members that is the daughter of alpha (through which the moon goddess was talking with them), the beta female of the pack, sixteen-year-old son of gamma and the newborn child of delta started glowing, and they also started screaming except the alpha’s daughter. Everything turned into chaos. A few people started screaming orders, and some were just lost, as they were unable to understand what to do, but in all this, the alpha was just looking startled and scared.

"What have you done?" he asked the moon goddess while his eyes were fixed on his pregnant mate, who was screaming in pain.

"I told you to think well," the child said calmly, and she still had that peaceful smile on her face while her body was turning brighter and brighter with each passing second. The alpha noticed that the body of his Luna was slowly turning black while his daughter’s body was shining more brightly with each second, and when he saw the same thing happening with others, he lost his shit.

"I said that I am ready to sacrifice... it’s me who called you here. I am the one who failed in his duty as the alpha king, and I called you here; then why are you making them suffer? I am ready to sacrifice myself just don’t harm any of these people" Tears slipped from his eyes as the anguish he was feeling was incomparable to any pain.... he knew that he was losing his mate, but still, the expressions on that girl’s face are calm and peaceful.

"I am giving the werewolves a new gift... a gift of the white wolf. These wolves will be called direct descendants of mine. They will be twice as capable as other wolves in every aspect, nothing can strain their white coat, and they will be devoid of any ranking. A strong-willed white wolf can even resist the command of royal wolves, they will be the living proof of my existence, and whenever problems will arise in the werewolf world then, my white wolfs will always stand with the royal pack in making the right decisions on time" she glowed so brightly that it became harder and harder for the others to look at her.

"Rest assured, children. Your sacrifices are for the greater good of your people. The souls I am taking today with me will always be by my side" before anyone could say or do anything, everything became silent, and the girl fell to the ground. All eight people were lying unconscious on the floor, but the only difference was that four bodies had turned into ashes while the other four were just lying unconscious.

Everything got sorted out after that, and all the groups dropped their weapons after knowing about the royal wolves’ sacrifice. The whole werewolf world was too shocked and guilty to fight each other again. The pain of losing Luna and her unborn child is something that left a hollow place in the heart of every werewolf.

I closed the book in annoyance. "I can’t believe, even after this, people believe her so much" I can’t help but feel bewildered after knowing all the truth behind white wolf emergence. She took a soul and merged it with another, how this made her the almighty one. If she really wanted to prove that she was the goddess, she could have given them the gift of the white wolf without taking anything away from anyone. "Forget it. There is no need to think about all this. Just focus on the details that can help me tackle Grayson and take care of Dee if he is a white wolf. I again opened the book and continued reading.

*************************************************************

A couple of hundred years passed after this day, and with each white wolf adding to it, the royal pack became stronger and stronger with each passing day. For a few decades, everything was normal, the wolves joined each other packs normally (moving with their high-ranking mates or just shifting into another pack), but the fate of white wolves changed with the change of every alpha king.

When alpha king Jade got the throne, council members already knew that things were going to change. It is not because he was the first white wolf to get the throne but because of his views that he had already made clear at the time of his father’s rule. He believed that only the royal pack had sole right over the white wolves because only the ranking wolves of the royal pack had made the sacrifice to get the gift. So, when he got the throne, the first rule he passed was that no white wolves could leave the royal pack. Many alphas wanted to confront this rule, but no one wanted to be on the bad side of Jade. This resulted in almost ninety-two percent of the white wolves residing in the royal pack itself. He hired them on high ranks and even gave them the official ’king’s warriors’ tag.

Jade became stronger day by day. He started thinking of himself as the almighty because no one stood against his decisions, and if someone did, then he made sure to shut his mouth by hook or by nook. He was also known to be a brilliant wolf who had a deep interest in the ancient history of werewolves. Whether it is the old practices that have been banished by the previous alphas or the sacrifice that they have offered, he did thorough research on everything. It is also said that he even has more information and knowledge than the oldest council members present in his court.

There is no detailed report of what he has done, but it is known that he performed a ritual in which he challenged the moon goddess herself. He challenged her to take control of the werewolves from her. He didn’t need any help from any of his royal wolves or council members, he made all the arrangements by himself, and it is said that it was the only time the moon goddess came on earth in her natural form. No one saw her except Jade, but every werewolf felt her energy.

No matter how much intelligence and strength Jade had, he was no match for the moon goddess. She separated his soul from his body and made him her prisoner. No one knows what conversation she had with Jade, but he made her so angry that she stripped all the royal powers from the royal pack. She entered Jade’s body and started a killing spree... every white wolf that she laid her eyes on that day was killed.

Unaware of all this, Brinda, who was a hardcore believer of the moon goddess, was happily sitting in her room and reading a book that her husband brought for her on ’mom’s to be’. She never believed that she could have a life like that. She was the prisoner of hunters from her birth, and alpha Jade rescued her from there and took her in his pack, where she found her mate. Her mate Abeer was a warrior and a white wolf in the king’s court. He is not only a brave soldier but also a loving husband to her mate. They found each other seven years ago, and even after trying many times, she failed to conceive.

They consulted every good doctor in the werewolf world, but no one understood the issue. Both of them accepted their fates by thinking that they would accept the moon goddess’s wish. But a few months ago, when she went for a routine check-up, they found out that she was pregnant....and their happiness doubled when they found out that soon they were going to be the parents of the twins. Everyone knows that having twins was next to impossible in their world, but being the mate of a white wolf helped them in getting permission from Alpha King Jade to keep both the kids alive under proper doctor’s supervision.

She was thinking all this when suddenly she felt immense energy near her. At first, she thought to mind-link her husband because she was afraid for her children, but then she thought about the workload, which was already making him stressed all day, so she let it go. But then, an hour later, she felt the pain of losing their alpha, and that’s when she realised that there was something that happened which should not have happened.

She tried mind-linking her husband, but his link was already busy, and all she could hear were the screams from his side. She ran outside and heard screaming from a particular direction. People were running away from there, but she ran in that exact direction. As soon as she reached there, she saw Jade beheading her husband’s head using his claws. She felt the pain, but her mind could not understand what was happening around her. She didn’t scream, she didn’t cry, she didn’t even blink. She just continued looking at the dead body of her mate while the Moon goddess continued killing every white wolf that came in front of her using Jade’s body.

After the moon goddess killed every white wolf in the pack, she came towards Brinda. She is still neither crying nor showing any kind of emotion, her face is blank, but her anguish and pain can be seen in her eyes clearly. Her hands and upper body are drenched in blood because she had her husband’s head on her lap, but except for this, she had not shown any emotion.

When the moon goddess came toward her, she didn’t flinch but looked in her eyes as if challenging her to kill her too. Moon goddess didn’t say anything to her and analysed her from head to toe. No one was around them, as many had already run away to save their lives from the moon goddess’s wrath while others were hiding so that she did not see them.

Moon goddess’ eyes stopped on her swollen belly, and that’s when finally, Brinda reacted. She encircled her arms around her belly and turned her gaze downwards to show her respect. "Not my children. Please... Not my children," her voice quivered. But the moon goddess was beyond mad to even listen to her words. She didn’t give heed to whatever Brinda said. Instead, she closed her eyes and instantly, Brinda shrieked in pain.

After a few minutes, blood started dripping down her legs, and a painful but pure rage-filled look crossed Brenda’s face. She could hear the heartbeats of her children diminishing with each passing second. She doesn’t know anything, but she does know that in a matter of minutes, her world is completely shattered because of the moon goddess that has taken over Jade’s body.

Moon goddess was about to go in search of the other white wolves and kill them when a staggering brinda came in front of her. The people that saw her at that time never forgot the look she had on her face. She was covered in blood from head to toe. She had her husband’s head in one hand while another hand of hers was covering her swollen belly, which had the dead bodies of her little children.

"Do you have a death wish?" Moon goddess asked her in a fury, but Brinda neither flinched nor showed any expression.

"I always questioned myself, where is the moon goddess, and why is she not helping me when those hunters were torturing me and treating me as a slave? No matter how much worse the situation became, it never wavered my belief in you. I never thought that anyone could make me not believe in you" the moon goddess simply looked at her but didn’t say anything. "You proved me wrong. You proved yourself that you are not worth our belief." She looked at her husband’s head and then looked at the moon goddess. Even the moon goddess could also feel the rage of emotions building inside her.

"You killed so many innocent souls just to satisfy your ego. My kids were not even born, they have not even felt the hands of their mother, and they don’t even know that their parents have been waiting for them for so many years. You took their lives without even thinking for a second" she looked around and found herself surrounded by the dead bodies of white wolves of all ages scattered everywhere. Their unstrained coats were the only thing that was visible because other than it, even the soil had also turned red in colour. "We call you the mother of werewolves, but today you proved that we are wrong. You are just a psycho soul who has been given the power of creating and destroying." This infuriated the moon goddess more.

She took steps towards her, but this didn’t stop Brinda. "Who allowed you to kill all those innocent souls?" her voice was still calm, but her demeanour changed, and her hands turned into claws, and her husband’s head fell to the ground with a thud. "Who the hell gave you permission?" she shouted as she was on the verge of shifting now. Even after that moon goddess didn’t do anything to hurt her, but still, the shift in energy around them was enough to tell everyone that she was surely going to kill her within minutes.

"Not going to kill me now, huh? Good, don’t do that because I will do that for you" before anyone understood, she stabbed her claws in her swollen belly and fell to the ground while shrieking. Not only the people who saw it but also the moon goddess can’t stop herself from being staggered by looking at the scene. Brinda again turned her hands into human hands and carefully took both the dead bodies of her babies. She tried to clean blood from their faces but failed miserably because everything, including herself, was covered only in blood.

Finally, she gave up, and a few tears slipped from her eyes. She kissed her children lovingly and looked at the moon goddess. She crawled near her and placed both dead bodies in front of her feet.

"Here is the gift of the great valour that you have shown just now" she knows that she is going to die in a matter of minutes. Even her wolf didn’t try to surface again or heal the wounds on Brinda’s body. With the death of her mate and her children, she doesn’t have anything to live for. "Try as much you want. You will not be able to harm any white wolf now" she smiled after that.

"I curse you that you will never be able to do any harm to any white wolf. No matter how hard you try or try to tamper with their fates, a white wolf will surely emerge who will shake every wolf’s faith in you. He will come and dethrone you. You did all this because of ego, right.... when he comes... your life, your respect, your existence... everything will be in danger. You will need to beg him on your knees even to spare your life. Only that day will my soul rest in peace."

These were her last words. That day is said to be the last day when the moon goddess came to earth. Even after this many times, royal wolves tried to communicate with her by doing many rituals and offering many sacrifices, but she never answered them. According to the records, Jade is the only white wolf who has been given the throne of the alpha king in whole werewolf history. It is said that Brinda’s soul is still wandering on earth, and she is the protector of the white wolves. She is still searching for the white wolf that will be capable enough to stand in front of the moon goddess, and her soul will then help him to dethrone the moon goddess.
