The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

In a forest that existed on Earth,

The wolves that were still alive kept running. They were trying to stay alive because the fire was still burning, and there was no sign of stopping. Many trees had collapsed, giving them a hard time, and a few wolves were injured, though not severely. The Alpha saw that he could not help but have to think about the route to go so he could save the few remaining pack members.

“Blue, now where are we going?” Asked a wolf at the front.

“As I recall, there is a lake not far from here. We better go there, so we do not catch a bigger fire. Hurry up!” replied the Alpha quickly. He jumped again to avoid the tree that had just fallen beside him.

Without needing to be ordered twice, all the pack members rushed towards the mentioned lake, even though the situation in the forest was hazardous. They kept running, even though they had to ignore the tiredness already in their bodies. Before long, the surviving wolves almost arrived at their destination. Blue remembered what the Moon Goddess had said: they had to tell him if the pack was in danger. However, he had not disclosed this because his attention was on his pack members.

Blue checked them one by one while some wolves started to get closer to the lake, then drank the water there to quench their thirst. The leader stopped in front of a wolf. He looked relieved, then said to him, “Elder, it is a good thing you are safe.”

“Yes, Blue. I am also glad to be alive. I did not understand. Why is where we live on fire, even though no human has come there to bring fire? They can’t hurt us. It was weird.” The Elder said to the Alpha seriously while looking at several pack members who looked resting.

“I also think the same thing, Elder. It is impossible for the Agbazarth tribe to do such an act. They have been our pack best friends for generations and this has been proven. No lightning that causes a fire can cause a fire. How strange.” Blue immediately looked up, then looked up at the sky. Earth also followed the actions of the Alpha, and the sky looked so bright.

“We need help, Alpha. The remaining pack members are injured, including me.” A werewolf gives advice. He started to lick his slightly bloody body. Earth and Blue looked at the wolf, and then the leader remembered Armen’s lover again, especially the advice from the goddess who asked them to howl if there was something significant happened.

“Come on, let’s howl, so that anyone who hears can come here to help!” Blue resolutely gave orders to the remaining pack members. The Alpha felt a glimmer of hope, then began to howl loudly. The wolf wished, however, that the howling would be loud enough and be heard up into the heavens, especially in the palace where the Crossroads Lady lived.

When they heard the Alpha’s voice, all the pack members who were still alive, both on the edge of the lake and lying down because they licked their wounds, took part in the same action as Blue. They incessantly howled so that the God of War, who had been busy throwing fire, could set fire to the forest as soon as possible. His face looked worried and angry at the same time. “Fuck! What were those vicious wolves doing? The bloody mortals can hear their voices, and then they will come here! My plan could be failed!”

Toghnath tried to wait, but the howling continued, so worry grew in the amber-eyed god’s heart. “Shit! I have to get out of here soon, so that the mortals don’t find out that I was the culprit.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Without waiting any longer, the man, who had a height of one hundred and ninety-five centimeters, as soon as possible disappeared and then flew up into the sky with mixed feelings of annoyance. “Bastard! I have not finished burning the entire forest area yet. Apparently, there are some wolves still alive! Instead, they howled to attract any creature’s attention. Then, the mortals will hear the sound sooner or later and make my identity known. Hopefully, Atvertha and her parents do not know about the incident earlier, so everything will be fine.”

Meanwhile, in front of Chief Agbazarth’s house

The six middle-aged men and a thirty-five-year-old youth had just arrived at the courtyard area. He turned to his eldest son, who looked disinterested. “Armen, what was wrong with you? Do you have a problem?” Lebrazht asked, frowning.

The owner of that name, who had been thinking about his lover and didn’t know he was being watched, suddenly turned his attention to the interlocutor. He saw his biological father, who was looking at him strangely. “Nothing, Dad. I was just-”

Before the brave guy could finish his words, everyone there heard the howling of a wolf coming from the forest. The sound stunned the other six men, especially Norah Bitnantzh’s husband. He muttered in surprise, “What the hell is going on? I have never heard them howl like that, let alone during the day. There must be something wrong.”

The fifty-four-year-old man turned to the six men who were indeed there and had been following him since earlier. “Archer, please go to the usual place. Blow the danger horn. We get a bad omen because the wolves are acting strange. I am sure they must have had a hard time.”

The bald man nodded swiftly, then quickly left the place. Now he saw the other men there. “Demeter and Arlan, when the Archer has finished blowing the trumpets, then send them to where the wolves are. The rest of you, including Armen, you have to come with me!”

The two men named immediately nodded, then left there. Meanwhile, Lebrazht, Armen, and the other three middle-aged men immediately ran towards the forest. The Chieftain Agbazarth walked ahead of the people who followed him. His face seemed worried. This change in attitude did not escape the attention of the lover of the Moon Goddess.

I have never seen Dad this panicked. We always fight because we have differences of opinion, but when it comes to work, Dad always does everything responsibly. A few minutes ago, I disappointed him because the Wisdom Tree did not give me a unique ability. Instead, we heard the howls of a pack of really suspicious wolves. I wish Atvertha was here so that she could be helping us, hoped the burly young man while continuing to follow Lebrazht, who was already very nervous.
