Selene POV
The moon goddess stared at me for a few minutes and then shook her head
"I'm sorry, but I cannot!" she replied after a few minutes. "If Kragen finds out, he'll try to save you. It'll put him at risk,".
"You said my death will be irreversible, right… he won't stand a chance," I cried. "Please… He needs to know that I choose this for myself. He needs to know at least that much; my death will break him and I know this. He's that way…".
She shook her head again, giving me an apologetic smile "I'm sorry Selene but I cannot grant that wish. You can ask me for anything but that. I need to leave now…".
Without waiting for a reply from me she vanished. I remained there for a few minutes, unable to say a word or think. As I turned to climb down the mountain, I spotted Kurtis at the bottom of the hill staring at me. Trying to wipe off the worst of the tears, I came down mustering a smile as I walked towards him.
