Their forced luna

Chapter 81

The hounds had been gone for hours by this point, and so had Amanda. I understood she needed time

to reconnect with Bo, but I was getting impatient.

"Don't worry," Javier patted my back. "She'll be fine."

"I know."

"No, you don't know or you wouldn't keep squeezing your fist like you're trying to break the arm of that

chair."

My head jerked up. A connection I hadn't expected to ever feel again flared to life and a burst of pure

sunshine radiated through it.

"Someone's happy," Javier helpfully commented.

I wanted to toss him over the barrier. "How?" I growled. It wasn't that I was against the bond coming

back, but I had to worry about how it had.

Javier shrugged. "Don't really care that much. I'm just happy she is." He smirked at me. "Like you

should be too."

"Zale?"

I whirled and forgot that Javier existed. My mate's skin was covered in kiss marks and her lips were still

swollen. "You okay?"

She nodded. "Can I talk to you?" she let a hand slide down to her stomach. Where, if it was to believed,

my child grew. I wanted to believe it with every fiber of my being but somehow it seemed a mistake to.

Gesturing to a free seat, I leaned forward. "What is it?"

"I need to talk to you about what Sabbi said."

"Sabbi?" I tilted my head. It didn't really ring any bells. Was it someone that was imprisoned with her

maybe?

"The Moon Goddess. She sealed away my ability to leave bond marks, but the God of the Primes got it

back."

Had I just heard her so casually admit she'd had contact with the God of my people? "Is that what you

wanted to talk about?"

"Not all of it. Listen. She set all of this up, Zale. Me coming here, being with you, all of it. She only let

me think I had gotten away from Rigar but I felt him after Bo's mark was taken away." She shook like a

leaf but when I reached out to touch her she pushed me away. "No, not until I'm finished."

"This is hurting you. Stop."

"She told me this child will be the end of the Primes. Its destiny is to destroy everything you've worked

for and built, Zale. She let me come here so it could be created."

I stared at her and then at her completely flat stomach. "Amanda, you are my Luna. The child you carry

will be our Prince. We will raise him properly, you don't have anything to fear. I'm not going to hurt you

or it."

She glanced up at me, shifting so she leaned the tiniest bit over. "You think we can keep it from coming

true?"

"Why don't we talk to someone that I have far more faith in when it comes to reading the future?" I

suggested with a grin.

"Who?" her brows furrowed.

"The Oracle," I replied with a smile.

"The one who told you about me?"

I nodded. It had been a long time since I had visited the crone but this seemed the perfect time to

arrange a visit. We needed to prepare ourselves for any possibility. I would not let my child destroy our

future, I would let them be the one in charge of it.

"Prime!"

Raul's voice carried to me on the breeze. I hadn't let the hellhounds officially into the pack yet so they

weren't able to use any of the normal pack links. A ring of black fire exploded in front of us and when it

faded away the three beasts dipped their heads to me.

Amanda smiled at them. "You guys made it. I was worried about you going after the demons."

Jessie snorted. "The demons should worry about us. There's not much they can do to hounds." Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

"They play dirty," Raul corrected him. "They could do quite a lot."

"Anyway," Tyler snorted at the other two and they hung their heads. "We have news."

"What is it?"

"We followed Clara's scent all the way to the demon's camp. They didn't notice us, they were too busy

taking care of that one that dared to attack us. In any case, the scent didn't end at the camp. From

there it went south. We followed it for awhile but there wasn't too much of a need to understand where

it went."

Beside me Amanda's color faded from her. She would know what lie in that direction better than all of

us combined. "No," she whispered.

I put a hand over hers. "Don't worry. We will find her. She belongs to this pack and we will get her

back."

Tyler's ears twitched. "In any case. Before we came here to tell you about this, you were having

another conversation about visiting an Oracle?" he snorted. "If you need the power of insight into the

future, you should turn to me. I'm far more effective than that outdated option."

"You'd do that for us?" Amanda was far too excited about that.

"It would be a duty undertaken to serve my Prime and Luna. I've chosen my side and there is no going

back." He tilted his head and green flames appeared in the air around him and turned into compressed

balls. They stretched and thinned out until we could look through them. "What are you seeking to

discover?"

"Our child," Amanda piped up. "I've been told that he's going to destroy the Primes in the future."

Tyler nodded and various shadows appeared in all of his fires. "Death, destruction," he agreed waving

through a number of them. He paused at one that had our son's silhouette but this time there was a

woman at his side and leaning against him. "This is the one."

"So he will?" Amanda whispered.

Tyler shook his head. "There are quite a few chances for it to happen, Luna, but there are some futures

where that doesn't happen at all. If he finds his mate, the Primes will go on, and if anything happens to

her, or if he can't find her... I'm afraid that he will be the last of his line."
