The Silent Alpha
Chapter 32: Consequences
***Vanessa***
It's very dark, always so dark in this place.I don't know where Iam, but it scares me.I want to get out but no matter how much! cry or scream, I am always met with cold, dark silence.
Regardless, I do not stop searching for a way out, running in any direction in hopes of finding the way out of this nightmare.
The pounding of my heart drums against my ears as I sprint into the nothingness, searching desperately for a light, a sound, anything, to let me know that I am not alone, that I'm still alive and that this is not the end for me.I force myself to keep running, putting one foot in front of another.
As I take another step into the darkness, the ground beneath my feet gives way and I find myself collapsing into the emptiness, my heart sinking to the pit of my stomach as I fall into the endless pitch black.
My arms fling about, searching for something to grab onto and save me from this never-ending fall.
The fall is long and torturous, and after a while, I give up and brace myself for my inevitable death.
Death, however, never comes to take me and my body finally stops falling, colliding into a pool of water.
I open my mouth to scream, my lungs filling with water but I stop when I notice the light above my head, illuminating the waves of the water as it sways to and fro.
My heart fills with hope; Moving my arms and legs, I swim to the surface, coughing up the water I drank and gulping the fresh air as the gentle breeze kisses against my skin.
I wipe my eyes and look around, elated to have finally made it out of the darkness and in what appears to be a lake.I see a sandy beach on the horizon and a silent forest sitting just behind it.
The sky has a greenish tint to it, not a cloud in sight.
I swim to the shore and lay for a moment to rest, counting my breaths.
Looking down at my body, I notice I am dressed in a flowy white dress with no sleeves, my feet completely bare.
After calming my heart, I venture in the lush green forest.
It does not take me long to realize that {I am still alone but the quiet does not scare me for some reason, a gentle calm washing over me the deeper I walk into the forest.
The breeze hums quietly in my ears.
"Vanessa..." it whispers.
I follow the delicate voice of the wind into the woods, feeling the damp earth beneath my feet as I rush through the trees.
Beneath the canopy, I hear the light trickling of water in the distance.I search for the source and come upon a stream rushing through a rocky bed.
Completely exhausted, I step into the cool waters to wash my feet and sit on a small boulder.
"Hello child," a silky voice murmurs from behind me, startling me enough that I nearly slip off the rock and into the water.
I turn around to find a beautiful woman with porcelain skin face down to her waist.
Like me, her feet are bare but she wears white dress with blue trim and embroidery.Her eyes resemble the dark skies of the night, two onyx beads containing a million stars.Her thin lips are as red as a rose, curled like two petals into a smile.
"Come with me," the woman instructs, holding out a hand towards me.
A calming presence surrounds her and when I place my hand in hers, a cool electric sensation tingles up my arm.
"Do you know who I am, child?" she says as we walk along the stream.
I take a good look at the woman, and while something about her seems familiar, I cannot put a finger on where I could have possibly met her.
"You seem...familiar," I reply honestly, my voice shaking a little.
A small chuckle escapes her perfect lips.
"I should hope so.You called me here."
I stop in my tracks and look at her closely, raising an eyebrow.
"I did?"
The woman laughs again, the sound rich and mystifying.
"You asked for a wolf,"
She murmurs, my eyes widening in shock.
"You're..."
"I go by many names," She smiles.
"But most call me Moon As the words leave her lips, a beautiful gray-blue wolf appears beside her.
"Devina..."
I whisper, a smile curling on my lips ast remember meeting her the first time.
Devina's piercing blue eyes flicker towards me when I call out to her, her head tilting to the side in amusement.I drop down on my knees before Moon Goddess, lowering my head and kissing her feet.
"Your Grace," I cry, ecstatic that my wish is coming true.
"Oh thank you for this gif-"
"You have nothing to thank me for,"
Moon Goddess snaps, stepping back.
