Not Your Mate Anymore

Chapter 34 One More Time



Chapter 34 One More Time

I looked around me, everyone looking at me different.

'She's the new moon goddess?'

'How is she so powerful?'

'We shouldn't have turned our backs on her. If she's really the new moon goddess then she'll definitely make us pay for what we put her through.'

I could hear voices but when I look around from where the sounds were coming from, the lips weren't moving.

Oh goddess!

I could hear their thoughts. I could look in to their minds without touching them. Panic started to rise inside me, I need to get away from everyone.

Xander walked up to me but I took a few steps back.

My heart was beating way too fast. My skin was burning. I felt like the first night I was going to shift for the first time and I didn't want to hurt Xander.

I could feel Athena, feel her differently. We were one but we were also separate souls. It was like this new power drove us apart but brought us together to be stronger than ever. Athena had a mind of her own, she wasn't sitting in the back of my mind just minding her business.

It was like she was in her own world. Her connection to all the wolves surrounding me took a new turn. We could feel their emotions, their needs. I could sense their uneasiness, some still hate me but my power was holding them back from challenging me. My power alone making them want to bow down to me.

I look at Max.

He's staring right back at me, his wolf wanting to calm me down but Athena wanting none of it.

We belonged to Xander.

Xander...

That snaps me out of my thoughts and I look back at X. He's still looking at me with his hands in his pockets.

I walk up to him and hug him. He hugs me back and the tears fall down my face. I almost lost him, I almost lost the man that loves me truly.

I start sobbing uncontrollably and his hold on me tightens. I was angry at my nana for thinking she could get away with killing the one I love. For thinking she could also harm my son.

My anger wasn't helping Athena. All she wanted was to kill everyone that hurt us. With this new found power, I wanted them to pay but I had no idea how to get to the moon and start with that moon goddess.

I was mad all over again. I was mad at Percy for being a complete idiot and toying with sacred law. It was written that he was to mate with me but he let earthly things get in the way of our oldest law.

Sex was an intimate thing to be shared with a mate and he just slept with Ralyn. Then Max, sleeping with another when he was still mated to me.

I'm angry that Max tried to hurt me by sleeping with someone else. I am angry he took on two mates and went unpunished!

Xander pulled away from me. I could feel that his wolf was feeling uneasy being this close to me and my new anger wasn't helping. I stepped back from him as my body started to tremble.

Athena was trembling too. The anger was all too much but it was waking up a soul deep inside me that wanted to punish everyone that disobeyed wolf law.

The councilman that passed Max's new law. What are we? Humans?

We don't change pack laws for selfish gains. They are in place for that very reason! The councilman need to explain to me why they went against everything they were taught, to allow Max to rule after all that he has done.

The laws were simple.

Alpha blood will always rule. How is it the moon goddess allowed this? Why was it making me so angry?

Why am I even thinking about this?

One day here equals ten years up there. So the moon goddess had ample time to make sure laws are followed and to punish those that plan on disobeying.

Just how much had she allowed to happen without this anger wrecking her insides?

Was there a way to control it?

'No.' A loud thunderous voice inside my head said. I had to hold my head from the rush of pain I felt when it spoke.

The voice was angry.

Angry about the way all these wolves lived life not honoring the laws that were put in place before they were even born, or thought of.

The voice was angry that things were so out of place and left to such chaos where selfishness rules the heart of alphas.

The moon goddess allowed this to happen. She let them run wild and yet the voice in my head says one cannot ignore the anger, the need to fix it all.

Unless she wasn't the true goddess.

My body started to really shake as a crazy rush of anger took over me and a loud roar came out, two black wolves appearing on each side of me.

They were huge. Bigger than any alpha I've ever met. The anger that was radiating off of me, fueled them. I knew I had summoned them here by that roar alone.

They growl, yes. Like all wolves, but this, was next level. Their power was intimidating, not to me but I could feel the atmosphere change the second the pack noticed their appearance.

'Grandfather, I need you to take Adrastos home with you now. I will meet you there later.' I say and he nods his head.

The words came out of my mouth like an order and my grandfather could not disobey. I immediately felt bad for commanding my grandfather around but that was quickly replaced by anger when I heard Max growl as my grandfather sped off with my son in his semi wrecked car.

"You have no business getting upset. I'm doing right by Adrastos when I allow you to spend time with him but let's be real here, my nana would've smoked you. He's staying with me until I know he will not come to any more harm." I say in my new voice again.

Max growls but he knew I was right. If the moon goddess decides to harm my son, Max won't be able to stop her.

The two wolves that were with me follow my grandfather as he drives away with Adrastos. I watch them until they disappear.

Xander steps closer to me and holds my hand. I look up at him and smile. I turn to look at Max and his pack.

"This pack is a disgrace! You all have no honor! I will be changing all of that very soon." I say before disappearing off, taking Xander with me and landing in my room at my grandfather's house.

I pull away from Xander and X bursts into loud cackles. He falls on my bed still cackling and I fold my arms waiting for him to share the joke.

I wait a minute before he stands up and walks towards me.

"I'm sorry. It just hit me that I've been fucking the moon goddess all this time." He says and I just chuckle at his childish behavior.

"You do realize that you've just become the baddest bitch of all time right? I mean where did that roar come from? And the two gigantic black wolves?" He asks and I pull his hand dragging him out of my room.

"I don't know about being the baddest but yes, this is some next level shit." I say as we walk down the stairs.

We walk in to the living room to find an intruder sitting comfortably on the one seater couch. Xander stood in front of me and growled, warning the stranger.

"Hello Sabrina." The male voice said from behind me. I quickly turn to come face to face with an old man.

The same intruder that was seated on the couch.

Xander turned around,

"Oh come on! How many of you are there? Fuck it, don't answer that." He says to the old man. He goes to sit down on the same couch the stranger was on.

"I didn't mean to scare you. I'm just here to see if you were real. We felt your power unlock, revealing your location and I had to see you." Old man says to me. When I say old, I mean my dad old. Maybe a little younger but around that age.

"Who are you? And what do you mean you felt my power unlock?" I ask looking between X and old man.

"I believe for you to truly understand, I'll need to tell you the full story about where you really come from." He says and he gestures for me to sit on the couch and I sit down. Something inside of me was telling me I can trust this man but my son was on his way here and I didn't need strangers around him.

"Sabrina, almost two decades ago, the first family found out Kimberly was pregnant. Kimberly concealed her pregnancy from everyone except from her family. During the time she went into labor, an uprising had begun against the first family and the father had to make a tough decision. A decision to let the daughter go in hiding from the ones that will look to kill her and stop the first family from continuing their lineage and rule." He says to me. His eyes get glassy as he talks to me.

"The father had the Kimberly's identity changed and teleported to earth. I guess his moves were being watched because Kimberly was kidnapped, keeping her away from her daughter and hidden from her family for years. Since only your mother knew your location and she went missing, there was no way to locate you until now. Anyway, the daughter was raised as a normal wolf on earth as Ethia had her powers hidden but all her powers could not be suppressed and slowly they came to life, defeating the very purpose that Ethia had in mind. Sabrina, you are from the first family. The only daughter of the first family and I believe you can't be killed because you are immortal. You are meant to rule all werewolves." He said to me and I quickly stood up.

I looked at him incredulously.

"What do you mean first family? I have two siblings so mind explaining how I'm not related to them? I have a father back on earth!" I say and he nods his head sadly.

"I know but that is the life you were thrown in to. It is all you know but explain to me how you're the only one with such strength? Yes, your sister is gifted but she can't even lay a scratch on you. Didn't you ever wonder why?" He asks and I shake my head no.

"Think Sabrina! Your sister can only control water. You control all elements besides your million other powers. You can't possibly be fully related." He says to me standing and I step away from him, stopping

when I've created a safe distance from him.

"Look, I don't know who you are or why I'm suddenly the moon goddess but my family is on earth. Stop this nonsense of first family." I say.

I was getting angry. I was confused.

This man felt like home, felt like a safety blanket I didn't know I still needed but what he was telling me couldn't be true.

There's just no way.

"You're just as stubborn as your mother." He says and I chuckle in annoyance.

"Which mother? I don't even know what's true anymore!" I say close to tears.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. I just, I'm just telling you what I know to be true. Do you know of the first family?" He asks and I shake my head no.

To be honest, I didn't know much except for the fact that they were the first family of werewolves.

"The first family, they are the first lycan family with powers. The family that comes from a realm not of this earth, a realm where we rule and look after the wolves here on earth. The reason why there are werewolves on earth is because my father fell in love with a human and she died during childbirth, giving birth to a pup. My father started what you call today a trend and the wolves from our realm would come to earth and have sex with human females which started a whole population of young wolves who could not control their wolves so we stationed commanders on earth to create packs and have the wolves live within the pack lines. We separated all males that were related to females so they could mate within their bloodline so humans don't get suspicious but I guess some humans caught wind and

the Hunter families were born, hunting werewolves. Anyway, woman born of the first family are to take over as moon goddess when she comes of age, just as you have done now. You're a little late on that but we don't blame you." He says and I sit back down to take in what this man was saying.

"Who are you?" I ask looking up at him. He sits back down too.

"My name is Hunter. I am your father." He says to me with so much confidence.

"You are part of the first family?" I ask and he nods his head yes. I looked at Xander who was looking between me and the old man.

"Yeah I don't see it. See with Christopher, I see it but this Hunter guy is not your dad. No way!" He says. Hunter growls at Xander and I growl at Hunter for growling at my mate.

Hunter looks back at me.

"You look like your mother in every way." He says and I meet his eyes.

"Where is she?" I ask.

"I'm here.." A chirpy very familiar female voice says and my mother walks in to the lounge carrying Adrastos in her arms.

I see the two black wolves walking behind her. My grandfather following too.

I stand up quickly and take my sleeping son from her. She smiles sadly and goes to sit next to Hunter.

This woman looked like the woman in my dreams. The woman that I watched die.

"That wasn't me." She says and I look at her confused.

"I can read minds." She says waving her one hand around as if she didn't just go probing in my thoughts.

Okay. I do it too.

"That wasn't you where? When you came to me in my dreams or when you didn't fight back and you let that stupid crazy man kill you?" I ask.

"I came to you in your dreams because you summoned me. I guess you didn't know it then but you called to me and I answered." She says to me.

"To be honest, I was a little surprised you could do that. I was in hiding from Ethia and nobody could find me but you." She tells me.

"Okay, yes! I see it. She looks like you." Xander says and my mother laughs.

"You know, Xander you also have a unique story." My mother says and I look back at her.

"Don't tell me I'm supposed to be the moon goddess too?" He says jokingly and everyone laughs.

"Oh nothing like that. You just have a special gift but I won't say anymore. You'll know it when the time comes." She says then turns to me.

"My little moon, I'm so sorry we left you at such a young age." She says to me.

"So this, if this man is your mate, what about my father?" I ask.

"Your father is my mate. See, I manipulated it to be so, to protect you." She says.

"Josey?" I ask and she smiles.

"Josey is the love child I had with Christopher." Mother says and Hunter growls, not liking that one bit.

"So my father is not really my father?" I ask.

"What do you mean by that Sabrina?" My father says walking in to the living room and taking in everyone.

"I'm also confused." Xander says and we all turn to look at him. He scratches his head and looks at me, smiling sheepishly.

"This is crazy. We don't have all day to explain what happened! It's time to put an end to Ethia and you can all come back to explain to the earthlings what is happening. Anthony!" He says and a young guy appears right before Cj walks in with Josey.

This guy looked like me. In every way but had Hunter's gray eyes and wavy hair. They were the same height too and built exactly the same, like machines.

I turned to look at my siblings only to see that Josey's eyes were very red and she looked really sad. I got up and rushed to her just before mother could get to her. I pulled her in for a hug and she lost it.

"I lost the baby Sabrina. I I I lost him." She said to me and I hugged her tighter.

"Shhhhh I'm so sorry Josey. Let's go to my room?" I say.

"There's no time for that!" Hunter shouts out and my father growls at him.

"I'm afraid dad is right. Ethia is assembling her troops and unless you want her to bring the war here on earth, we need to get going. It's a different fight up with these wolves so we can't have her come here,

there'll be too many casualties. We can't protect them all." Anthony, the new guy that just appeared out of nowhere says to me. He knew I wouldn't want to get people killed.

"Dad? Hunter is your father? And Kimberly?" I ask looking at him. He smiles at me.

"Yes, Hello twin sister." Anthony says to me. Josey wipes her eyes and looks at Anthony then at Hunter. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

"Twin sister?" I ask.

"Wait, what's going on here?" She asks at the same time as me.

"Yeah! Dad kept me and mom kept you, well tried to." Anthony said. I shake my head in disbelief.

Mother pulls Josey in for a hug before pulling away and wiping away more tears.

"Hello my baby. I wish I had the time to comfort you but duty calls. Your sister, the new moon goddess, needs to go do some moon goddessey things and save all werewolves." She says and Josey turns to me with her mouth wide open.

"New moon goddess?" Josey and Cj ask.

"Oh yeah! She's even more powerful. Got the lightning works and everything. It's really insane you know, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it too." Xander says to everyone.

"I was witness to it too. I'm just too shocked to say anything else really." Grandfather says.

"Look, we need to go. Sabrina, the best thing you can do right now for your family is to go defeat Ethia." Anthony says before Nana appears behind Xander and disappears with him.

I freeze in place. I know Xander won't be able to defend himself against my grandmother. Is she even my grandmother? I look around me to see if everyone saw that.

"Did nana just take Xander?" Josey asked.

Grandfather threw himself on the couch, looking broken.

"She tried to kill him before." Grandfather said to anyone that listened really as he said it in a soft whisper.

"I think this time, she took Xander for Ethia. Oh goddess knows what they plan to do with Xander." My mother says.

"Let's go find out then." I say as my power is released.

Cj and Josey look at me with their mouths hanging.

I looked at Hunter, who was looking at me like a father that looks at their kid when they win an award, he was standing proud.

All that was left for him to do was clap.

"Family, let's go win back our family's legacy!" Hunter says.

"First we find Xander." I say, leaving no room for discussion.

'I promise to come back to you. I'm so sorry I can't be here for you.' I say to Josey through mind link. She nods her head in understanding.

Hunter sighs but nods his head,

"He bares your mark, locate him." Hunter says and I squint my eyes, not understanding what he meant by that.

"Close your eyes and imagine the distance between you and Xander. Imagine there's a light that leads you to him and you will find him." Anthony says to me and I nod my head in understanding.

I close my eyes and focus on Xander. I think of him being far away and a light that will lead me to him and within seconds, I can feel him. He's unconscious but his wolf is calling out to me.

I open my eyes and nod at Anthony. I look at the two black wolves, mind linking them to protect my family.

I place Adrastos in Josey's arms and a blue orb forms around them. My son knew danger was coming and he was a little prepared. I nod at Hunter, ready to fight for my man. Ready to fight for my family.

Xander and Adrastos were everything to me and I'm tired of everyone trying to hurt me by hurting them. It was time for them to pay. I'm not playing hero today, no. I'm going to kill Ethia and anyone that stands in my way.

There's no room for mercy. My family will stay safe, I will make sure of it.

"And when Ethia is dead, I want answers!" I say before we disappear.

I don't know how the other realm fights but that was not going to stop me from saving my man.

We arrive, right in the center as Ethia slapped Xander awake.

A roar came out of my mouth before I jumped, landing on the ground next to Ethia and punching her hard. She flew to the other side but landed on her two legs.

I looked at Xander and he nodded at me telling me he's okay. I turn my attention to Ethia, who looked at me with a sinister smile.

"Well, about damn time." She says to me as about a hundred people shift in to their wolves and release their power.

My father, I mean Hunter chuckles at the Ethia. Athena recognized Hunter's wolf and she had no problem in accepting that he was my father.

"You think they can keep my claws away from you?" Hunter asks Ethia.

Ethia looks at me and then at Hunter. Her eyes bulge out at the realization that we were here together.

I got in her head. The sheer disbelief running through her as she tries to pretend this is not something she calculated could happen.

"I have an army of my own, I'd like you to meet them." Hunter says before shifting in to his black wolf. His wolf became two and two went to four until there was twelve gigantic black wolves growling at Ethia's army.

"I have an army of my own too." Anthony said as he shifted in to his black and white wolf. He also went from one to twelve in seconds.

Ethia stepped back. Looking at Anthony. Her eyes went to Nana who appeared by her side.

"Mother didn't know I had twins. So you can't blame her for this one. Mother, meet Anthony, my son." My mother says to nana who looks around the twelve black and white wolves.

I growled out loud before releasing my power, as thunder rumbles and lightning strikes twice on each side of me. My claws coming out and the purple full moon forming on my forehead.

The fire in me that I consumed earlier, forming a ring around my midsection and my eyes going full purple.

"You want a fight? I'll give you a fight!" I said in a loud voice.

It was time to put an end to this.
