Chereads / After darkness comes light / Chapter 5 - 5. Broken promises.

Chapter 5 - 5. Broken promises.

What is the meaning of a promise?

Broken promises can destroy someone for the rest of their life it can hunt you and destroy everything that you build.

A long time ago. In the year 3000 BCE where the Gods and Goddess were the only beings alive in the world. Zeus and Hades decided to make living beings on Earth.

Zeus created humans

Hades created the underworld

That's how everything existed on Earth and in hell.

There were other gods and goddesses.

This tale is about how the moon goddess was born.

Titans Hyperion and Theia fell in love and got a baby girl name, Selena. She became the Moon Goddess the Mother of werewolves.

Selena's Point of View

"Selena, honey where are you?" I hear my mother calling my name. Searching for me in the castle where we lived.

My sister giggles behind me.

"Shhh, she will find us" I whisper to her.

"I got you!!!"My mother pulls the curtains open finding us hiding behind them.

" Mom, you almost scared the living daylight out of me."My younger sister Lola complains walking out of our hiding spot.

"Selena, today is your 18th birthday celebration you are becoming the moon Goddess today. Sadly you have to leave your home behind." My mother sadly says with tears in her beautiful green eyes.

I look down at my shoes with tears in my eyes.

"Mother, please can't I stay here? I am so scared Mom. What if I am not good enough?" I ask sobbing

My mother pulls me in for a hug.

"Oh honey, you will be amazing it is your destiny you were born to do this. We are so proud of you" my mom says comforting me.

It is the firstborn's duty to be a moon goddess. My aunt was the firstborn and she become the moon goddess a long time ago. But she is too old to rule as the moon Goddess now it's my turn to be the moon goddess.

The Next in-line Moon Goddess has a lot of reponsepelities. When the moon Goddess turns 18th she leaves her home to live in the moon. The moon Goddess gets the power to create supernatural life like werewolves and I'm nervous because I don't know how to do it.

"Don't worry sweetie you will do a great job."She pulls away.

My mom did my makeup and my hair in a braid. I put on my white lace long dress and my high heels.

We walk to the ceremony in the ballroom where everyone was waiting.

My mom and dad sit down by the throne. While I was greeting gods and goddesses that arrived late.

The ceremony was beautiful everyone congratulates me for being the next moon Goddess.

Everyone starts to leave the ceremony except Zeus.

"Are you ready to go Selena?" Zeus asks standing in front of me and my parents.

"Yes." I turn around and hug my parents and sisters.

"Bye, I love you all and I will miss you all."

Zeus took my hand and look up at the Moon teleporting us to the moon.

We arrived on the moon.

I was starstruck by how beautiful it looked on the moon.

Purple with a pink mix in the sky. A big Castle covered with green big trees, and lots of flowers everywhere in different colors and kinds.

Zeus pulls me towards the castle gently.

"This is your new home, another Goddess is also leaving here but she is old. You are her replacement. She will teach you how to create the werewolf species. Only listen to her no one else." He says strictly

He teleported out of the castle.

So my aunt is still here. I hope she will train me to be the best Goddess in history.

I walk into a room. It looks like the study room.

"Hello dear." I hear a voice behind me.

I turn around and see a beautiful elder woman in an elegant cream color dress with a golden necklace.

"Hello, Auntie Linda". I greet her with a hug.

"How have you been my dear Selena? You have grown so much and so beautiful."She pulls away to have a better look at me.

" I am doing well Auntie, I am just a bit nervous," I say smiling nervously at her.

"Oh honey you will do just great it's not that difficult," she says walking out of the study and into another room.

The library.

"I will teach you how to make werewolves. Just listen carefully and do as I say."

I follow her to the table that was in the middle of the library on the table there was a purple big book.

This must be the story of how to create werewolves.

"This is the history of werewolves and of us, the Moon goddesses. I am going to teach you everything my dear and from there on I am retiring." She says smiling at me.

"I can do this," I whisper to myself

3rd pov...

For the next 3 weeks, Linda teaches Selena about her history and how to create werewolves.

She has been doing very well.

One night there was a dark shadow sitting in the corner of Selena's room waiting for her to return from eating dinner.

"Thank you for the food Auntie, can I go to my room it has been a long day," Selena says yawning.

"Yes, my dear you may. Sleep well." She says smiling sweetly at Selena.

Selena walks up the stairs going to her room, while the dark shadow waits for her.

Selenas POV...

I walk into my room feeling a bit uneasy. It feels like something is watching me.

"Well hello there," a dark deep voice says behind me.

I quickly turn around ready to run out of my room but a man was standing in my way.

" W..who are you?" I ask trying to not sound afraid.

"Well, I am the one and only God of the underworld Hades". He says bowing sarcastically.

" what do you want?" I ask feeling confident.

"I am glad you ask Selena," he says walking into the light of the moon.

I was in awe. He was gorgeous for the God of the underworld.

Dark short hair, Green eyes, fit body, and tall.

But I know he is bad and destroys everything good on Earth. I heard stories but I never imagined for him to look this good.

He smirks at me knowing I am checking him out.

I snap out of my thoughts when he starts to speak to me serious

"I want you to promise me you won't create any creatures that are stronger than my demos," he asks with a dark look on his face.

"Wait, What?"
