S.C.M Trials

Chapter 8

Moon Goddess POV

"God, what is he doing to me?" I watched as my daughter cried in the guest room. My heart aching with every sob that came out of her mouth. As much as I wanted to give Daniel and Desiree the life they deserve together, I am still a woman with my own rules. I can't give my little girl her happiness when things had to be done a certain way. Even I am subjected to rules from someone of higher superiority.

Arms wrapped around me as I welcomed the comfort and warmth of them. Leaning on his shoulders, I finally was able to shed tears that I've held for so long.

"What is wrong, mon amour?" There was nothing that I could've said. There was nothing we couldn't do to help her. And for that reason, sadness was the first thing we felt in the morning. For the rest of eternity, we will carry a sadness in our hearts that we can't remove. Until a man with a pure genuine heart and intentions finds Desiree and passes the trials will we be able to remove the ache in our hearts.

The Second Chance Mate Trials were designed by both my mate and I in order to teach other wolves a lesson of how blessed finding a mate is. It was a way to set wolves who did their mates wrong see the reasons why they were given the mate they got. Most of the time, the rejected or neglected mate would not feel any feelings for the mate that rejected them.

It was the idea of your destined one to look at you as a stranger. The transfer of the mate bond to the mate who did the neglecting and rejecting would then understand the very feeling they had given to their significant other.

The future is shown so that they see the life they could have had with their mates. The past is shown to understand what their mates had to grow up dealing with. The present in the trials however in a sense is a place similar to Hell. They live a life owning up to their responsibilities and if strong enough are given back their blessings.

You see, the trials aren't what it seems to be. Yes, there are rules, but rules can be broken due to the circumstances. The rules also have a level of superiority. This is what my King and I decided. What choice would the wolves make?

By the time I stopped crying, Daniel was sneaking into Desiree's room and was beside her.

"It's true what you said. I have broken you and for that I will pay the price of breaking you for the rest of my life." I could hear Daniel say to Desiree.

A sudden breeze hit my face as he said those words. As of right now, he's doing the right thing. But I fear in the end, his choice will ruin everything he worked for- just like every guy before him with Desiree.

You see, it's my fault that we had our child taken from us. If I hadn't rejected my King the first time without giving him a chance, our daughter would be living happily with us.

Through my mistakes, some of the werewolves would have to suffer the same fate my King had gone through. It is one of the moments I regretted the most.

Because Desiree is my daughter by blood and birth, eventually she will feel the mate bond fully during the time of the trials. She will know Daniel is her mate. She may not understand why, but she will. It was the inevitable. And that is the hard part of the entire thing- the reason why my daughter has been put into the trials time after time again. There was no man who passed the inevitable.
