Part 2 Chapter 38 Ares POV Darkness. Empty. Cold. everything is cold, I will never ever be happy again. My sunshine was taken away from me. I am not alive and I am not dead either. What am I? Who am I? Oh right I am the guy that killed his own mate, again. I just want to go to where she is now, please, let me go to her. I close my eyes and send a prayer to the moon goddess. I am sitting in my room on the floor with my head against the bed. Looking up at the ceiling while my thoughts drift away and my mind is clear, I close my eyes and take a deep breath. The next time I open my eyes I see the clouds. Nope, I am closing them again and after three seconds I open them again and guess what the clouds are gone but instead I look up at Artemis snout. “What the?” I shout and crawl away from her. She tilts her head and she seems to be laughing at me. “Hello Ares” She says and I nod at her. I look around and notice that I am not in my room anymore. “We are inside your mind, you prayed so hard that the moon -goddess sent me inside your mind and I created this place” she says and smiles. “Okay, so I am still inside my room with..” I begin to say look away from Artemis. but “You know, you didn’t kill me that time” She says and I blink at her.
I stare at her but then I shake my head. “I let Mia transfer my mark onto her neck even if it faded an hour later and you just died when Nora saw it.” I say and shake my head in shame. “Well, yes if you look at it like that. It was the final blow for my mind, too see your mark on the witch but it wasn’t what killed me. It ripped me away from Nora but I was weak and someone had been poisoning
Nora for a very long time but instead I took on the poison so really it was just a matter of time before I left her.” Artemis explains and I look at her. A lycan that speaks sounds really strange but her speech is normal and I wonder if it is because it is happening inside my mind. “Ares, I loved both you and Helios, just as you love Nora. But was never supposed to be a part of Nora. I just prepared her mind and body for Aurelie to take over.” She explains and lift. my eyebrows. “But how can we have a bond with you if you weren’t her real counterpart” I ask her. “Well, the moon goddess had some help from well, Nora actually” Artemis giggles. “Huh? I am really confused now. How can Nora have been a part of this?” I ask her and she seems to think how she is going to respond. “Well, Nora traveled through the past to find answers to some 21.29% questions and she told us. But she gained something that she needs help to unlock. And that would be you and your brother.” She says and thinks that I will understand but I am more confused than ever. “So she traveled back to the past and told you everything that has happened. And now we need to mark each other so she can unlock some ability and become.. what?” I say and Artemis nods. “Yes but you need to wait for a celestial event, like a lunar eclipse or a blood moon,” she says and I nod. “Fine mark her by a celestial event.. Wait.. We can’t do that” I almost screamed the last part at her and she flinched at my sudden outburst. “Why not?” She asks and touches her ears like she needs to check if they are still there. “Nora is dead” I say and feel the darkness creep inside of me again. “No, Nora is in the past” Artemis says and touches me on my head. “What?” “Right now?” I ask with some hope that she will be coming back to us. “Yep and you need to go back to her because you have some guests in your room that need you” Artemis says and I look around but I can’t see anyone and I can’t even hear anyone.

“What do you mean?” I ask and turn to face Artemis again but this time she is gone. “Close your eyes” her voice comes drifting and I do close my eyes. It takes but a few seconds before I open my eyes and I feel that someone is shaking me. I opened my eyes just to stare into Helios eyes, it was almost like looking into a mirror, they are just as lifeless as my own. But I see something else in them, hope. “It’s time brother, time to wake Nora up. Anna has come up with something to wake her.” He says with no feeling in his voice but he gives me a smile. I let him pull me onto my feet and I noticed Ben lifting Nora’s body away from my bed. He is holding her gently, making sure her head is on his shoulder when he walks away with her. Me and Helios are following him through the corridors to Ben’ s suite and there were more people waiting. Samantha, Annà, uncle Dave and dad. Ben carried Nora over to his bed where Samantha was waiting and she began to feel her body and I just started while Helios I growled. But Samantha didn’t care, she proceeded with her doings. When Anna gasped and went to go over to Nora. She lifted her arm and turned her wrist so we all could see the bite mark and Samantha just shook her head. “Well it seems I wasn’t needed at all here.” she says with a small laugh. Nora begins to gasp as she is drowning and I can hear her heartbeats again and I see how her chest is rising and falling rapidly like she is running. Anna leans over her when she suddenly opens her eyes and sits up too quickly and bonks her head into Anna’s. “Yeah, I am back” Nora says and laughs together with Anna. Notice. Hi everyone, I am trying to update 2 or 3 chapters a day but there are days when I can’t. My uncle died not long ago and I am still trying to find peace with that. So I am sorry if I miss a chapter here or there. I love everyone of you even if we will never meet. Take care of yourselves out there. Love from Foxtail
