Chapter 3 - Selene's gift

As Emily was falling down the only thing that replayed in her mind was Tom's face which only made her eyes blur with another wave of tears. She had accepted her fate by now. Her breath hitched as her body finally met with the stones underneath. She could feel herself losing consciousness, forever. She sighed as closed her eyes surrendering her self to death. Her breathing halted, her heartbeat ceased to stop and her body slowly lost its heat as Emily's bloody lifeless body lay on the stone.

But God surely had other plans. She suddenly felt herself falling much deeper into space, something that couldn't comprehend what... But before she even realised anything she was laying on a soft white bed. It felt like she wanted to wake up but couldn't. Something didn't feel right. Her thoughts were cut off by someone suddenly saying "I know child you want to wake up but you can't but please listen to me. What happened with you is one of the most cruellest means of death. And that breaks my heart. So there's one way I can save your life. But not as a regular human. Because sadly the truth is you are dead. The lover boy pushed you from the cliff which resulted you in falling down all the way to the bottom of the hill causing your death. So I can't save your life as a human. But there's another way I can do so. Do u want to?" She asked. The fire of betrayal and revenge was already burning her every nerves, veins and cords. She was ready to do anything to teach her traitor ex fiance a lesson. And so she did, took the most important decision that could make a turning point of her non existing life, she said yes. " Okay, the important discussion is the organism that you'll become is neither an animal nor a human. Rather something much deadlier, dangerous and even more powerful. But this power will come with a lot of consequences. Are you ready to deal with that?" she asked, her voice both stern but unsure. But Emily immediately nodded with confidence. She sighed and continued "Okay then, pay attention, what I turn you into is not a human or an animal but something that is a mix of both of them. 'A Werewolf' it is. A werewolf is a mix of human and wolf. These werewolves can shift to their human or wolf form as they wish. Now you are not the only werewolf in this world. Infact there are many. And they live in packs. Each pack consists of an Alpha who takes care of the pack and disciplines it. Now mates, a mate is equivalent to a soulmate in the werewolf world. And most importantly rogues, rogues are pack less wolves. Wolves who have either been banished from packs, have left the packs for good or have been born to rogue parents are rogues. And you will be one too. As you don't have a pack for now. Wolves identify everything with smell. So which pack are you from, what is your pack rank and duty, or if you are a rogue, everything will be determined there with your smell. And after I turn you into one you will be able to smell too. So don't worry. And the rest of the things are things that you'll learn by yourself. And all I want to advise you is don't trust anyone easily. And do anything just because everyone is telling you to do so. Find out the roots and see the reason you're going to fight for is valid enough to win over or not. And not everyone will be enemy, there will be people who you can consider your family. So think before you act and not the other way around". "So now to the main procedure, you will have to bear a bit of pain for a few seconds so suit yourself. Don't panic" Emily could hear her chanting mantras as she could hear a sudden gush of wind twirling over her body. Suddenly an intense pain ran through her body as she screamed in agony. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa". After a while everything again slowly came to a stop. She could feel something that was holding her eyes back is slowing disappearing. As she opened her eyes a very bright light made her shrink back as she whimpered. She could hear the woman dimming the lights as she opened her eyes again. But what she saw was unbelievable. An extremely beautiful woman in a white robe stood in front of her. She was someone who could get everyone under her spell with her beauty. And Emily was no exception. She chuckled as she saw Emily staring at her with her eyes wide and jaw hanging out. She smiled and said "I am Selene, the moon goddess" Her eyes went even more wider if possible. She couldn't believe she got saved by the moon goddess herself and even getting a chance to talk to her. "I have inserted the werewolf gene in your body and they will start working once I escort you to earth. Hope you remember all my advices and proceed with what you do. Don't do anything that you will regret later just like you did in your previous life by trusting people you shouldn't. I know you're wise enough to decide every step of your life. Bless you my child. Come let me send you back to the earth. Close your eyes". She said as she again started chanting mantras. Soon Emily felt she was back to the space flying, again as. She soon realised shes back to the mortal world. Selene opened her eyes and sighed "There's a lot more for you to discover and suffer, I am sorry Emily but I had to be a little selfish for my child, I am really sorry" she said to herself as she went to the castle getting back to her work.
