LUNA OF LEGENDS

CHAPTER 2

“ manna “, aria spoke in a low whisper as she looked at the woman before her. Ever since her parents died manna had been like family to her, in fact, manna had been more than family to her, she had always stood by her, giving her both moral and ethical support. Manna was like the mother she wished she could have but never had.

Aria tried to sit upright as manna stopped her which allowed her to lay back on the bed, immediately after she had recovered from the blurry view a lone tear fell from her eyes as she sniffled it in.

“ Aria are you crying “, Manna questioned as she seemed a little worried. There was something about Aria anytime she cried too. She always developed a fever which would make her too sick to do almost anything. Aria turned her eyes away while preventing the gaze from manna, the least she wanted her to do was to see her cry.

The last time she had cried was when she lost her parents in a war 10 years ago, she saw her father’s lifeless body filled with bruises and she couldn't help but to cry and play all mud with the soil, she lost her sanity, her hope, her joy and her being for her existence, she lost everything that mattered . she felt shattered and pained beyond existence, something she still felt till now.

However, when manna came it was like Selene the moon goddess had relieved her of her pain, burden and stress. It was like the moon goddess saw through her distress and was able to help her out through it all.

“ what are you thinking dear “, manna said as it jolted Aria back into reality . “ don’t be sad there, you will find love again and it will be really soon “" Manna said as she smiled.

" he is really brutal, he was brutal towards me, he didn’t even care of how I felt that very moment” " Aria lamented as she stared right at Manna while closing her gazes.

Manna moved close to her like she wanted to tell her something of high secrecy, “I want to ask you one thing aria and answer me truthfully because I’m your mother “, aria nodded as she heard Manna’s words.

“ what’s it manna of course I would always tell you anything “ she said as she gulped nothing below her throat.

“ has he marked you with the mark of his mate, for you to be his forever and no man’s “, manna ended her statement as a tense silence occurred throughout the room, nobody said a word nor could the drop of a pin be heard to ease the silence.

“ Talk to me child, have you been marked with the mate’s mark? “ < manna questioned, however, it seemed ie the lady before her wasn’t ready to budge a dime.

Muller paced from one corner of his chamber to another as he tried to control himself, he couldn’t understand what was going on anymore nor could his wolf’s spirit. It was like an outer and a stronger force was being manipulated by him. He took a deep breath as he closed his eyes momentarily. He had just rejected aria, fine ……end of the discussion, he soliloquized as he fell towards his bed with his face above facing the sealing while his head buzzed with activities that he just had to carry out.

“ aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah “,, he heard the tumbling of his wolf spit as that shook his flesh, he stumbled before taking a grip of himself.

“ what’s it Aiden “, he questioned as he took a deep breath, the werewolf had the power to communicate and also the power to design thoughts, they had an inner spirit a total being different from who they were, however, this wolf spirit is very fragile, to some the wolf spirit is like the designer of their thoughts responsible for every decision whether good or bad, however, every werewolf was given the innate ability to talk to their wolf spirit.

“Aiden was his wolf spirit, an inner spirit that had existed inside of him thousands of years ago.

“ Why did you do that? Why did you reject our mate?! , his wolf growled as he shook him once again and Muller fell to his feet.

“ shut the hell up Aiden, she isn’t my mate you hear me! I have rejected her, therefore she can go her own way.

“ there was a loud thunderous laughter that his wolf spirit made, ae him quite uncomfortable, “ you clearly know it, you clearly know that without her you are nothing, “Aiden said as he let out a loud growl.

“I'm a lot better without her, so stop saying such stuff, I have the works of the kingdom to actually spend my time with instead of useless conversations with you' ', muller said angrily as he sat on the bed.

It just had to be true, however, if it wasn’t what about that, his best friend couldn’t have lied to him he trusted Murray with his life and that also means that he could trust him with any other thing, Murray as his beta and he knew him more than anyone else could, they had grown together since childhood and h wouldn’t just lie like that.

Muller sat on his bed trying to grasp his thoughts towards a particular direction when he heard a knock on the door.

“ Yes, who is there “? Muller questioned.

****

Manna why is your question coming out of the blue, it’s too heavy to answer and you know it “" Aria said as she bowed her gaze while staring blankly at the bed’s spread.

“I'm really hungry manna, please can I get blueberry pie “, aria said as she smiled at Manna who nodded her head briskly before going away.

She lay on the bed as she relaxed her head while trying her best to lay off the burden and the pain that had sunk deep into her heart. She knew one thing was true thus it was n longer a fantasy to her anymore, a breakup is the worst thing to get over because you had given so much for it all to work out, time, effort and resources that had been wasted.

She wiped the tears that freely flowed down through her chin, maybe it was for the better . “maybe it’s absolutely for the better “, she soliloquized.
