Chapter 04

I had now reached home, I rushed towards my mum telling her that I had encountered the moon goddess.

"Honestly honey, are you sure we shouldn't go to the hospital? Maybe do a quick check up, because I don't want to believe the moon Goddess revealed herself to you, we need to go to the hospital to confirm." She says.

"No mother, I'm fine, I just don't know what it meant by what she said... What the Moon goddess said." I replied.

"Wow! she appeared to you? Oh, my goodness! What exactly happened?" She asked so inquisitively.

"Well, I was jogging to grandma's house when it all happened. A gigantic dog like a wolf-like creature jumped at me, tackled me to the ground and after I got it off me... Thinking that it was an accident but then..." I said stopping.

"What happened!?" She asked in return.

"It attacked me again but I was lucky enough to swerve out of its way but my headphones were knocked off before it could make another move and the owner came to my rescue and it is was then I realized that it was not a werewolf but an ordinary Germans Shepard dog that was possessed by the moon goddess." I explained.

"Lina, you are the future of our people. If the human race must survive the coming of the beast... We are going to need you child and I will personally train and equip you, for the latter days are more gruesome than the former, stay strong and keep your head out of the cloud... Lightning witch" were her words.

- Lina's Mum -

As my daughter narrated to me what really happened, I began to wonder what was really going on. Had I been away from the winter pack for too long?

Was I the cause of all these strange Things that were not happening to my daughter? Is this the end I was fearing would come?

What kind of responsibility are they trying to give my daughter? I have to tell her! She has to know!

Why is all this so difficult?

Why did I have to fall in love with a hybrid? Before I could draw a conclusion with my conflicted mind, she dragged me out of my thoughts with her words. "So that's what happened.... mum! are you even listening to me?" She asked.

"Oh yes my darling" I replied speedily. "Then why do you look so pale and sweaty? You only look this way when you have a big secret hiding."

"What? No of course! why would I do that." I couldn't hide her from knowing I was thinking of stuff.

"Come on mom, I've known you for eighteen years of my Life, so there is no way you can fake it and I'll believe you... besides you make insignificant pauses when you're hiding something." She explained so vividly that I got weak.

"How did you know all That" I asked, trying to change the topic.

"Don't try to change the subject ma, I'm ready. Tell me everything." She requested it from me.

"Oh darling, what if you are not actually as ready as you say you are. I'm just really scared... What If you can't take the truth." I replied to her.

I knew that she was definitely hiding something from me and I had to find out what that thing meant by making her think that I had a secret when I had nothing to tell her at all.

And as I was looking at her, I was hoping that this trick would work and by the looks of it she was already worried and shaking so this was my best chance to find out the big secret.

Which of course she has promised me since I was a kid.

It is time I know who I am.

I looked at my mum thinking of tickling her but that won't be so active.

"Mother common, enough with the negativity. Have you ever thought about what I can do? Besides, remember you promised me you were going to tell me the biggest secret when I turned eighteen." She replies to me.

"True but You're not eighteen years at least... not until tomorrow ha-ha!" I said using that as an excuse.

I wasn't getting anywhere with this back and forth argument so I had to try the reverse psychology on her.

"Mother, if you don't tell me this Big secret then... Then I won't tell you mine." She says and my heart skips a beat.

"You have a secret? Oh, my goodness, you found out on your own already?" I replied to her surprise.

"Yes! I did find out and if you don't tell me your big secret... I wouldn't tell you what I found out." She replies.

She's trying to be smart!

How hilarious.

"Oh please, you can keep the secret to Yourself, I'm just glad you found out on your own that you're a hybrid just like your father. Although I would like to know Who told you that?" I asked.

"What?!" She replies to me, shocked.

- Lina -

I asked, I couldn't believe it.

Did she just say what I think she said?

Then she responded with an innocent look over her face.

"What?" She asked with her eye’s concentration unstable.

Just to be sure she knew what she was saying to me I had to repeat what she said.

"I'm a hybrid like dad?" I asked and she nodded affirmatively.

"Yepa phew, it feels good to finally Get that off my chest." She replies.

"But child, you are not just a hybrid Lina, you have powers that are only given to witches with the purest of hearts in one thousand years, and it means..." She pauses in her words.

"The beast!" She says to me,

"Mum, what do you mean?" I asked.

"No! You're too young for that kind of Destiny! You are not even yet trained on how to use your powers." She says with her body shaking already.

"Mum, calm down, what's the matter?" I asked her in return. "It is coming!... The beast." She says as she holds me to herself.

Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness!! I was totally Freaking out... Damn.
