Farewell

Seraphim's POV
This is not the life I want for myself. I am a servant. Although I wasn't hurt physically all the time, they are constantly reminding me of what I am lacking. I get punishment sometimes when they think I am slacking off. However, those are rare times. Most of the time, I am just... abused verbally and emotionally.
Because this pack serves the goddess Eos, the sister of the moon goddess, Selene, and because I am cursed by the goddess Eos, I am considered as bad luck, a shame, and they get all the free will to hurt me. They are werewolves yet, they don't show love to the goddess who made them. But I do. I believe that out there, Goddess Selene looks out for me. Because if she doesn't, then why did she give me heightened senses to compensate for my blindness? Why did she give me a wolf who is magnificently larger than a normal wolf and a lycan?
"Get back to work, b***h!" That is Mistress Lina. She is the head of the kitchen. Right, I've been sitting way too long on this chair, I forgot I still have dirty dishes to deal with. Not wanting any more curses from her, I stood up and hastily did the dishes.
While doing so, I constantly thought "Goddess, giveth thy patience." I prayed to Goddess Selene to give me patience worth three more days. It's only three more days until I'll be able to shift. Hyacinth, my wolf, appeared on my head when I was 16 and talked to me only a little before she went into a deep slumber. According to her, when I turn 18, that is when she will be active in my head and will talk to me at all times.
Just three more days and I will escape from this pack. I will reject it and become a rogue. It doesn't matter that I am blind and mute. I believe my wolf and I will be blessed by the Goddess Selene. Just like what my mother always said back when she was still alive.
"You might be cursed, but you are so much more blessed. Once 18, a solemn promise written in stone by Selene, you will be exceptional, and you will take the path of greatness." That is what she said. Always.
I just hope that the path she is talking about is exactly the path I wish to take now.
Now that I was done with the dishes, I proceeded to my room. It was small but had a decent bed. Nothing. Just a bed and a small bag full of my clothes. It is more like a cleaning materials room that they made to be my room. I am pretty sure the new cleaning materials room is way bigger than this.
I fell asleep pretty quickly, probably because I was too tired doing chores in this huge pack house.
"My dear Seraphim, my burning one. Go find him. Go save him."
Save who? I spoke to the being in front of me. No eyes, her mouth did not open one bit, but her voice was loud and clear.
"Save him. You are strong. He is strong. Together, your fire wilWal grow stronger. Not because of Eos, but because of the two of you."
I wish to save no one when it is me who needs saving.
"Valerius. He has perished, but go, save him. Save him from the abyss. It is not my will for him to be there."
What abyss?
