The New Luna

Lyra's POV

I felt rippling pain through my chest and I fell back on my butt. I opened my eyes and looked down at my longer hand, amazement soared in me. My body felt lighter than usual,

Something wasn't right, I could feel it in my gut.

My hand touched through my stomach, a reflex action I had gotten accustomed to these days, unfortunately, my stomach was totally flat and smooth! This is totally impossible!

I am pregnant!

A blinding light shone on me and I had to cover my eyes with the back of my hand.

"Luna Lyra of the Blue moon pack."

A strangely deep voice sounded through every part of my body. The shining light dimmed down a little and I could see a creature walking towards me. When I made out its features, I could tell it was a wolf. I was mesmerized by its fur, its shimmering blue eyes and powerful demeanor gave it away all too fast enough,

The legend had always been passed down to all werewolves, I couldn't have been wrong, my mouth went faster than my heart,

"Moon goddess!"

My voice came out in a barely audible whisper, as if the creature had heard me clearly, she shifted to a human form, then I was certainly not mistaken,

She was everything befitting a goddess, those blue eyes, flowing white gown, white long hair and her elegance.

Confusion erupted in me, what the heck is going on?

"Luna Lyra, your children are over there, they are dead, and so are you!"

How cruel could the moon goddess be to sound so unempatic like that. I turned slightly to my left and I saw two identical children walk into a vacuum. I wanted to rush after them but my legs refused to comply.

Then my eye caught it, my body on the floor with my hefty baby bump, then it struck me, but I needed to confirm it.

I looked into the moon goddess's eyeballs, as if a world shifted to accommodate my thought. I saw a clear reflection of myself, my high cheekbones, slender face, slightly crooked nose,

Oh my goodness! This isn't me!

"You can have them again if you live on, I mean children." the moon goddess said as she settled down in a valley right beside me.

Everything was upsetting, more importantly, confusing. I tried to have a recap of what had happened in the past few days. I remembered waking up in the middle of the night feeling immense pain. It felt like my babies were coming,

I mind linked my mate, but he ignored me. I knew he had rejected me publicly the previous day with a claim of witchcraft, but I was hoping that he reconsiders

I was there wallowing in pain till.... I have no idea.

"Whose body is this?" I questioned suspiciously.

She gave me a long look before finally responding,

"You will find out soon enough."

The moon goddess was probably right, I must be dead! Her presence, and my strange body was evidence enough!

"Are we in the afterlife now?" I questioned suspiciously, I needed to understand how terrible my situation was, to determine my next plan of action.

"I cannot admit you into the afterlife with that distasteful mark."

Arghh!!!

I shouted as I felt a stinging sensation on my neck region as her face twisted in disgust. I didn't need to be told, I touched it slightly, my Luna mark had bore a deeper hole into my skin.

"Why do I still have it then?" I questioned in annoyance, she had watched me die in agony without saving me, and now she wasn't planning on admitting me into the afterlife after killing my unborn pups!

I had better hopes for the moon goddess in my thoughts of the past...
