Sky's Rejection
Sky’s Rejection Chapter 60

(Sky’s POV)

I woke up early. When I say early, I mean it’s still dark out. The moon felt as though it was calling to me though. I shimmied out of under Dimitri’s arms, proceeding to the bathroom. I felt disgusting as if I haven’t washed in years.

I climb into the hot shower, relishing in the warmth that drips down my body. I felt… refreshed, free.. happy. I washed myself before trying to convince myself to get out. I felt this urge to go to the moon, bond with the moon. I felt like I was being pulled, drawn maybe outside. I couldn’t really explain it. I have never felt this way before.

I exited the shower, wrapping myself in a fluffy light blue towel. I looked… better. My eyes were shining as if I have slept for the last few years, my body felt relaxed and my skin looked as if I was glowing. I honestly was happy with how I looked.

I wonder if I should wake Dimitri up to go with me, I feel lonely being by myself. I could feel Angel and Rain still sleeping, though I know they didn’t have as much rest as me. I would let them sleep longer as long as I didn’t need them.

I pulled on underwear, black jogging pants, and threw on a pink and black sports bra. I looked good, but I didn’t know how cold it would be right now. After getting my black and pink running shoes on, I grabbed my black jacket with pink stripes on the side and slowly went out of the room. I wanted to bring Di with me for company and to be with my mate but the bags under his eyes told me he needed this sleep. I don’t like that I feel as if I have been the reason behind his sleep deprivation. I know this wasn’t fully my fault but I wish there was a way I could have made him see I was fine and not to worry. I knew it would have helped a little but no matter what he would have worried.

That is what made him such a great Alpha and King. He worried about his loved ones, his friends, his pack and the whole werewolf Kingdom beneath him. If I ever could have chosen my mate, the one I would have spent the rest of my life with.. He would have been the one I would have wanted to begin with. I get life lessons teach you, my first mate, the one who rejected me, taught me I needed to be strong, independent and unique. Di has made me feel secure, safe and loved. Things that Ty had to bring back into my life, things I missed from my parents.

I walked out the pack house, towards the trail in the woods. It was quiet but I heard the little nocturnal creatures roaming through the woods. They seemed happy, at peace. I felt the stress of the world vanish, as if I was connected fully with nature. As I hit the trail, I ran… Every thought leaving my mind, every tired cell vanishing as I felt my body run full force towards the moon, being pulled towards the life source of our people.

As I entered an empty field full of flowers, I came to a stop, staring at the full moon as I sat in the flowers. I sighed in content. I needed this, I feel as if I have went from a sick, exhausted person into a revived, relieved one. I am not sure why, but I knew this is where I needed to be right now and I regret not bringing Di with me to experience this feeling together.

I laid down, sighing in relief. The flowery scent making all my nerves calm as I hear the owl wooing above me. I felt at peace.

Rain and Angel stirred inside me, as if their souls released all their tension as well. I felt them fall into a more peaceful slumber and I knew it was the best idea for me to be here, to have come to the moon and relax here. The lavender, cedar wood scents swirled in my nose as I closed my eyes to breath it all in.

‘My child.’ I heard a whisper in the wind as my eyes jolted open. I looked around in a panic. It couldn’t have been later than two in the morning. Who the hell else could be awake? I know I didn’t leave the pack lands, no matter how much I felt like I was in a trance, I wouldn’t have taken off out of our territory. I would never want to worry Di like that.

“Who is there?” I asked in a whisper, panic as I looked around me. I couldn’t see anyone. I sniffed the air and again I couldn’t smell anyone. Maybe I was imagining it, maybe I needed more sleep than I thought.

‘I called you here, pulled you to me. There is a danger lurking around, in twenty five years there will be a war. A war that will end in the destruction of the supernatural beings if nothing is done. If the darkness succeeds the world will be in ruins, you will die, your pack will die, your mate will die. No one you live will exist.’ The voice said as I realized I wasn’t hearing things anymore. I looked at the moon, the light that called me here and saw the glowing figure of the Moon Goddess.

Most people never get the opportunity to meet our maker, even as we die, or souls pass to their next life. For some reason she has graced me with her presence twice now. I stood and gave a slight bow. She chuckled as I laid back into the flowers staring up at the moon.

“Why have you come to me about this?” I asked as I placed my arms behind my head, staring at the Moon Goddess in concern.

‘I can not tell you all of it right now my child, one day a seer will have a vision of the prophecy. The way the world will burn and the only saviors that can change the horrible outcome.’ The Moon Goddess spoke into my mind. This doesn’t make sense. I don’t understand what this has to do with me.

“What does this have to do with me? Why come to me about this?” I asked in frustration and annoyance. Why tell me this horrible occurrence when I can’t help change it. Now I will worry about my people and family, not being able to do anything to save them.

‘Patience my child. No one can know about this prophecy until the seer comes out with it. This is important so I need you to tell me you understand Sky.’ She asked as I shock my head in confirmation. No matter how frustrated I am I wouldn’t go against the Moon Goddess no matter what. I hate keeping secrets from Di though. As if she read my mind and that is a huge possibility she began to speak again. ‘ You may discuss this with your mate through your mate connection only, share him this memory and leave it at that. Now that we have that out of the way. The only ones who can save the world are twin wolves.’

I couldn’t bite my tongue this time. “What are you talking about? Wolves can’t have more than one pup at a time even if they got pregnant with twins one always dies. How would twins save us when I know there will never be twins?”

She looked at me with a smile, as if my interruption didn’t bother her at all. I guess she has to have patience to deal with me. ‘You will see, my child. Take care of yourself and babies.’

That’s all she said as she began fading away, I wanted to scream. Ask her what she meant about babies, I couldn’t have any kids. I chose Dean over our pups. We will never have any. Was she mocking me? Was there a chance I could have pups? What about these twins she spoke of? I had so many questions. Before I could scream even at word towards the Moon I heard a voice behind me.

“Sky?” The concern of my mate’s voice drew my attention to the tree lines, making me momentarily lose focus off of the Moon. I couldn’t scream at her with Di around, I would look crazy even if I did show him the vision.

That’s what I should do.

“Di? I am sorry if I worried you. I just needed to clear my head. You seemed like you need the sleep. Can I show you something?” I asked him as I lifted myself off the ground and started walking towards my mate. Angel and Rain perked up from being close to our mate. They seem well rested as well.

“OF course, Mon amour. You could ask me for the world and I would try to give it to you.” Di said as he wrapped his arms around me. He looked content but also skeptical of what I want to show him. I placed my hands on either side of his head and closed my eyes. I focused on the memory of the Moon Goddess, sending him the exact moment. After the scene played I released my hands and looked at my mate.

“Babies? A war? Twin pups?” Di questioned in confusion as he looked at me. I felt the same way and didn’t really know what to tell him at this point. I wish I could explain it to him but I really had no idea what she meant either. Before I could say anything I heard someone running towards me, out of breath. Di pushed me behind him in a protective stance.

“Doctor Ron?” Di asked in a disbelieving voice. What was the pack doctor doing all the way out here when he has a new pup and mother in the hospital. My anger started building making me think I shouldn’t have left Ariel with anyone other than myself. Hopefully Mark was still by her side but he didn’t have any medical training to help in an emergent situation. I bounded to the front of my mate about to explode on this doctor. Di wrapped his arms around me and before I could say anything the Doctor spoke, between his panting breaths. “She’s pregnant Alpha. I ran the test multiple times and no one else knows it is the Luna’s results. I am one hundred and ten percent sure of it though. She was poisoned with Mandrake and she is pregnant. It doesn’t seem like the poison effected the pup but I would like to do more tests to make sure the pup is fine. Ultrasound, more b***d work and maybe a cat-scan if we feel the need after the other tests. I also want to make sure the poison has fully left our Luna’s body.”

I stared at him in shock, losing all the anger building inside of me. I’m… Pregnant and I was poisoned. Could the pup be hurt? Will I lose the pup because of this? How could this be? I traded our possible children for Dean’s life.

“Yes doctor Ron, any tests you think necessary we will do. Sky… Love… We need to go check on our pup.” Di said with desperation hanging in his every word. I couldn’t believe it. I nodded my head in agreement and aimlessly followed my mate in the direction of the pack hospital, lost in thoughts. Di looked happy but scared, as if he is thinking the same as me.

This can’t be true.

This can’t be happening.

Did the poison kill our pup?

Moon Goddess, what does this mean?
