Howling For Love

Howling For Love 8 (Edited)

Chapter eight

I was in the clearing with the lake when I saw the woman that looked like me. I walked towards her. "You have come to me."  

I looked at her, "Who are you?".

She smiled at me and came closer. She took my hand and a blinding light emerged for our touch. After a few moments, it disappeared and she looked at me. "I'm the Goddess Moon. And you are my child, Daughter of the Moon." 

 I looked at her baffled. "That can't be. I have a mother.."  

She shook her head slowly. "I needed a vessel to carry my child. Many believe I am a myth. But to some supernaturals I am very important, like Diablo. Believe me, Sinna, when I say that you are my child."

I looked at her and asked softly, "What am I? Am I even human? ".

 She looked pained at my question. "I can do things. Things I can't explain. I look different from everyone else. What will happen to me? What will happen to you?"  She squeezed my hand and kissed my forehead. Immediately I felt calm and some part of me believed her that she was my mother.

"Sinna, my legend is as old as time itself. My life has been filled with loneliness. One day a man came to me and I granted him his wish to be a wolf. I did not make him a full wolf. I spelled him that allowed him to appear human and shift into a wolf at will. This man grew lonely and I created a spell that would allow a piece of this man's soul to be reborn within a girl. When this girl grew up, she would be his mate. Or soul mate." I starred at her. 

She smiled. "I'm glad that you found your mate. You are meant to love each other for eternity."  I touched her face, "What about you, Mother? How do I even exist?" 

She turned away. "I had a mate too. Many years ago. We decided to have a child. I couldn't carry a child so I made a deal with a witch. She agreed to help. But she did not tell us that we wouldn't have you when we wanted. For many years nothing came of her spell. And my mate died trying to protect me from the Vampire Queen. 18 years ago the witch came to me and told me the spell was complete. I chose your mother to be the carrier of my child."

I looked at her shocked. I saw tears running down her face. I pulled her into my arms and hugged her, letting my own tears run down my face. "I'm so sorry about Father."  She hugged me tighter. Then pulled away.

"When you came into contact with your mate, your powers started to awaken. Be warned Sinna. Your mate is an important part of the power that runs through your veins." I nodded my head telling her that I understand. I pulled up dress to show her the tattoo, "What about this?"

"It's the mark of the moon. It's very important. It will help you reach the power inside you. It will also warn you when trouble is near. All you need to do, is to learn to listen to it, to control it" She told me all about the werewolves and the vampires and the supernatural world.

I nodded head and I felt someone trying to reach me through my mind. The Goddess turned to me, "You mate is worried. You must go back now."  I felt myself leave my dream like state. Before she disappeared she said one last thing. "Learn to use your powers Daughter. War is coming."

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

I awoke sitting up with sweat running down my face. I looked around to see Diablo holding my hand and looking very worried. He leaned in and kissed me. I pulled him closer and deepend the kiss. He broke free and ran his hand over my cheek.

"I'm her Daughter. She warned me. War is coming, Diablo."

He looked at me confused, "Sinna, what happened? What war? Who warned you? Whose daughter are you?" I met his eyes and said softly, "The Moon Goddess."

Diablo looked shocked that I knew her. I touched his face and told him about the dream. Realisation hit me, "I need to go to the lake."

He nodded his head and leave towards the bathroom. "I bought you some clothes. They are already in the bathroom. After your shower and breakfast we will leave." I nodded and turned on the taps. Before he left, I grabbed his arm and pulled him closer. "Thank you" I kissed him before pushing him out the door smiling.

I stripped out of the large t-shirt I'm wearing. I think it is Diablo's. I step into the warm water and let out a sigh. I needed to talk to the Goddess again. But I don't know how. Hopefully my plan will work.

After my shower I dried myself and dressed in the clean underwear. I picked up the pair of black ripped skinny jeans and pulled them on along with a black shirt that had a ripped back. I went over to the mirror to brush my teeth. In front of the mirror I gasped. There was a small cresent moon on my forehead with a little gem in the middle.

I ran my fingers over it, it felt like nothing was there. I continued to brush my teeth while looking at the mark. I slipped on my socks and stepped into a new pair of Doc Martins. Before exiting the room, I brush my hair over the mark.

I walked to the room and saw Diablo sitting on the bed. "Thank you for the clothes. And I love my Doc Martins." I squeal and hug him.

 He chuckled and nodded his head. I lean back, "Hay, do you see this on my forehead?" He nodded his head. 

"Yes, it appeared after you passed out in the clearing. What you did back there was amazing"  I turned to him shocked.

 "Yes, the Goddess said that because I was her child, I had her powers. I need to find a way to control this. She also told me everything about werewolves and mates and the tension between you and vampires".

He nodded and took my hand and lead me downstairs. The kitchen was filled with food and my mouth drooled at the sight of plates stacked with bacon, eggs, omelette, pancakes, toast and the jars of juice. I saw Sasha in the kitchen. When she saw me, she screamed and hugged me to death.

"Sasha, what are you doing her?" She looked at me like I was crazy.

 "I live here with my brother and pack" she came over to Diablo and kissed his cheek. "Morning brother" I stood shocked. 

They are related?! They laughed at my expression and I turned away from them and grabbed a plate. I was extremely hungry.

"How long was I asleep?" They looked at me as if they were afraid of what my reaction would be. Diablo finally broke the silence.

 "My love, you have been asleep for three days"

I looked at him shocked. It can't be that long. I felt the stress begin to build up. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I knew it was Diablo because of the sparks.

I turned towards him and he looked worried. "We need to go. I need to get to the lake." Sasha, Diablo and I finished our breakfast and went outside and towards Diablo's jeep.
