Classic Novel
The Past
Roland’s Pov (2 days before the present events) I am having a tough time sleeping. This is nothing new to me, though. Ever since Elena left, I have not slept through the night. I am not sure why, but I miss her. I secretly looked for her for weeks and found nothing. Not a trace. I searched for the whole city. I even went to her old packhouse, but her guards told me she was not there. I tried to channel our mate bond and see if he was lying, but the bond was so weak, it got me nowhere. After a few weeks, I gave up. My mind has been in a strange state, and not even the doctors know what is happening. The more I want to look for Elena, the more Raven keeps coming into my mind. Cole has been handling most of my affairs, and my wolf won’t even talk to me. He stopped after I gave up on trying to find her. The only reason I still have him is that my mate’s bond is not broken yet. I have not shifted in months. Raven was pressuring me to make her my Luna. I realized that I might never get Elena back, so I forced Blaze out to mark her. He did not like having to do that, and he howled the entire day, giving me a headache for days following. My arm is holding Raven right now, but I might as well be holding air because I feel empty. The haze is back, and it’s stronger this time. Elena She is the only one who has ever really stolen my heart. I used to think that I loved Raven the same way, but now I know. I have never loved Raven the same way I love Elena. I do not know how that is possible, though. Do I want Elena, or do I want Raven?
I take my arms off of Raven and prop them up behind my head. Moon Goddess, I do not know if you can hear me, but please, just let me know she is okay. Somehow, I felt my eyes getting droopy right after. I let the feeling take me.
I am dreaming. I know I am because I am looking at the moon goddess, who only appears in dreams. She is so beautiful. She looks just like Elena.
We are in her garden. The same place we were at before, when inked with Serene and Elena “Come to my child’. She holds out her hands. I walk to her. Her voice. She even sounds like Elena. I walked to her and took her hand. “You heard my prayer, Moon Goddess,” I told her. It was more of a statement.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“You have fallen from the destiny I have written for your child, but it is not your fault. It is time to wake up now.” She says this as we sit down by a pond. I knew she was talking about Elena, but what did she mean by wake up? “I am sorry, Moon Goddess,” I told her, holding my head down. She puts a hand on my shoulder. I looked up into her eyes. Those same eyes I have fallen in love with. the eyes of Elena. “I looked for her everywhere. She is nowhere to be found.” “She is closer than you think,” she said with a smirk. “Where can I find her?” I asked. I cannot tell you outright because I am not allowed to meddle with fate. I will, however, send a clue. You will know what the clue is when the time comes,” she says. She looks down at the water, and so do I. “This is the pond Elena saw her past life in, right?” I asked. “Yes, and yours,” she said. I looked away. “You must look, Roland,” she told me. I looked back, and it seemed as if I were falling into the pond. Everything around me swirled. I was sitting down as events played for me as if I were in a movie theater. I could tell it was one of Elena’s and my past lives. 3rd Party Pov “My love, are we still going to the queen’s ball?” Ravenia asked while she came up behind a man on a stairwell and hugged him from behind.
“Yes, Ravenia, my stars,” the man told her, turning around and hugging her back. He had jet black hair and light hazel eyes. “Then let’s get dressed, Roly,” Ravenia said. The screen Roland is watching swirls.
They arrive at the queen’s temple and are in line to meet the queen. Roly is wearing a silver mask and white Greek robes. Ravenia looks beautiful in black Greek robes with a green mask. It brings out her eyes. They are finally at the front of the line to meet the queen. “Approach,” the queen said. She looks just like Elena.
They stepped toward her. “My lady, my name is Ravenia, and this is my husband, Roli.” Ravenia introduced
The queen nods towards Ravenia with a smile and turns to Roli to do the same, but freezes. Roli also seems stuck and is silent. “MATE,” they both say. Ravenia watches with wide eyes. The screen swirls again. Ravenia and Roli are back at home. “Please don’t leave me, Roli,” Ravenia begged. “I love you.” “I love you too, Ravenia,” Roli said. “But she is my mate. I cannot continue to stay here with you, knowing this. Plus, she has commanded me to get my things and come back to the palace,” Roli says. “Roli, if you leave me for her, I will never forgive you,” Ravenia threatened. Roli kissed her head. “I know, my love,” he said. He finished putting his stuff in the carriage. “Roli!” Ravenia yelled. He turned around to her with sad eyes. “I will make you pay for this. The day will come when you may think you are safe, and everything you know will come crashing around. Just know that on that day, I will be the cause of it. So, enjoy your time with THE QUEEN,” Ravenia yells. Roli watches with sad eyes and leaves. The screen swirls again. Roli is in bed, and three kids come in, waking him up. Two twin boys and one girl. Both boys have jet black hair, but one of their eyes is gold. The other is hazel. The girl had brown, wavy hair and the same jeweled eyes. The queen comes in after them. Her silver-white hair is perfect, and her blue eyes sparkle with so much love.
“You are the love of my life, my queen,” Roli says as she approaches. “As are you?” She smiles and kisses him. “My love, I am taking the kids to my sister today. I have a weird feeling, and I always trust my gut,” she says. “Of course, my queen,” Roli tells her. “I will have a carriage prepared,” Roli tells her.
The screen swirls again. Roli and the queen are sending the kids away with a woman in the carriage with them.
The screen swirls again.
Roli is walking next to the queen. The palace is almost cleared out; only a few remain. “You’ve sent almost everyone away, my love,” Roli says. “I am about to send you away as well, Roli.” “I do not know what is coming, but I feel its evil intent. I wish for you to be far from here when it happens,” the queen said.
“You are my mate. Whatever you face, I face, and we face together. I love you,” Roli says, kissing her. The screen swirls.
“Mother, I will not stand by and continue to do nothing,” Ravenia says. She is talking to a slim woman with brown eyes and black hair. “The time is almost upon us, my dear. Have patience. They will pay, and soon they will all be destroyed,” the mother says. “The moon-based powers are an unstable mother. I have been trying to channel them, but it keeps taking body parts. Growing them back is such a pain for me.” Ravinia says “The moon-based powers will work best when done when the moon is full at its peak. My friend who gave you the spell told me that’s exactly when it needs to be done,” the mother states. “I just want them dead, and this is over with,” Ravinia says, slicing the throat of a wolf.
The screen swirls again.
The queen is on her knees. “Roli, someone is taking my power. They are building it into a fuse in me. I fear my powers will blow from inside of me.” The queen says Roli kneels and holds her. “No matter what happens, I am with you,” Roli says. “Roli, you must go. I cannot bear it if you are lost. Please go”. The queen begs. “My Queen, my love, I would rather die holding you today than live and never hold you again. I made a promise to you. Whatever we face, we face it together. I believe our love is strong. I know we will meet in the next life. I will find you, my love, my light,” Roli says. The queen and he kiss. Soon, the queen glows while they hold each other, and a massive explosion takes place, killing everything within reach.
The screen swirls.
Ravinia is on the floor; half of her body looks as if it has blown up. HERE ME SPIRITS
Take my life and find me in my next life.
BREATHE ME BACK TO LIFE, SO THAT I MAY COMPLETE MY MISSION AND KILL ALL OF THE PLAGUE KNOWN AS SUPERNATURAL.
HERE ME SPIRITS
So let it be.
So let it be. A silver mist comes up from her, and she takes her last breath and flies out of the cave.
The screen swirls, and Roland seems to be pulled up from the water. He touches his clothes, but they are dry. The moon goddess is still sitting in the same spot. He is back in the garden. “She was a witch,” I asked the moon goddess. She nodded. “Was she a successful moon goddess? Did she bring her spirit back?” I asked her.
She does not answer. I can only take it as a yes, and if memory serves, she looked just like Raven. Raven. Motherfucker. “She is in my bed,” she said, jumping up and pacing back and forth. All this time. All this time, I had no idea who she was. Elena. I have to get to Elena. The moon goddess seems to hear my thoughts. She grabs my hands. “Roland, a prophecy hangs around what happens next,” she says. “Beware of the one who will pretend. Prepare, gather your strength, or it will be your end. Despair will befall you even if you succeed. The past holds the key to the weapons you need.” This prophecy has long been written. Elena will need you for the outcome of this. You must not let her go too far from herself, or it may be hard to bring her back. I have broken the spell the witch has had you under this whole time. The time is now to go and reclaim my daughter. Go. Oh, and take heed, Roland; I will be watching.” She speaks Wait…. spell? My vision swirls, and I wake up.
