44. The Vision


    CHAPTER 44: The Vision


    "YOUR MOTHER MISSES you so much," Jackson said as they sat on the big rock near the water. He


    held Lilian''s hand and guided her on sitting properly.


    Lilian heaved a deep sigh and smiled. "Please tell her I miss her, too." She couldn''t help but to think


    about her sometimes. She misses her mother so much and she can''t help but to wonder what she is


    doing now? What''s making her busy the past few days that she''s not with her? Oh, Lilian hopes that


    she''s not burying herself with her work and her Alpha duties that much.


    Jackson scoffed. "You should be the one telling that to her. When are you going back, Lilian? Alpha


    Calista is so worried about you."


    That made her straighten her back. Well... she has no ns in going back for now. And her mission is


    still not done... But then, the other part of her brain is somehow saying that her wolf likes to stay here.


    Her wolf is happy here and she would be really lonely if she ever left this ce.


    "Soon. I''lle back soon. I just need to finish some... things here." Lilian shrugged his shoulders as


    her eyes went to the clear water and sighed again.


    "That''s good to hear. I thought you have no ns oning back already. The Midnight pack is still


    your home, in case you have forgotten that thing already." He gently shook his head as if he''s


    disappointed and sighed. Well, Jackson couldn''t help but to feel sad knowing that Lilian, his sparring


    partner is not around in Midnight pack. He misses her so much but as of now, he has no balls to admit


    it to her. Other than that, he also has no ns on telling Lilian what he... truly feels for her.


    Because Jackson knew to himself that it''s all useless now. And what he feels is wrong that voicing it


    out will onlyplicate things.


    "I''ll alwayse back to our pack," Lilian replied with a small smile on her lips. Of course, Midnight


    pack is still her home like what Jackson has said. And she has no ns on... staying here longer.


    "That''s good to hear. By the way, how''s your mate?" He suddenly shifted the topic as he looked down.


    He suddenly wanted to hit himself for asking Lilian about that. It actually hurts him but he has no ns


    on showing it to her that he''s hurting. "Is he... good to you? Are you fine staying with him?" He asked.


    He wants to know. Because the other side of his brain is saying that maybe, he could pursue her if her


    mate is not treating her well. He could take her away from him if she''s not happy with him. Damn, he


    must be insane now. He''s willing to go to that extent of stealing Lilian away from her mate if ever she


    asked him to.


    "He''s..." Lilian was suddenly out of words. Alpha Karius... he''s actually good at and is busy making up


    with her even though she''s hurting him with words. He''s just epting it all. Other than that, he''s also


    good in... bed. Of course, she must admit that but she has no ns voicing it out. She blushed at her


    own thoughts. "... still the same Alpha," she continued instead.


    "What do you mean still the same? From what I learned from your story that you told me before, that


    Alpha broke your heart. Is he repeating the same mistake?" Jackson asked as he clenched his jaw. He


    knew about her past, one of the reasons why he had the urge to steal Lilian away from her mate but he


    chose not to as a sign of respect to her.


    Lilian sighed again. "Let''s not talk about it. I want to know what''s the reason for your sudden


    appearance here. Did someone send you?" She diverted the topic instead and looked at him seriously


    this time, remembering what he told her just minutes ago.


    "Alpha Calista sent me here. Aside from the fact that she wanted to know if you''re fine here, she


    wanted to ry a message about her vision to you." He told him seriously.


    Vision. Calista, her mother, has the ability to see a vision through her dreams. She''s actually a hybrid--


    half witch and half wolf but being a wolf is more dominant in her blood. She rarely shows the ability of


    being a witch, too. But aside from that, she hates her witch ability that could see a vision because she


    failed to see what''s going to happen before when she lost her mate and Lilian back in the war.


    Thinking about it, Lilian couldn''t help but to be sad for her mother. Until now, she could still feel that


    Calista is ming herself for what happened long years ago. Sometimes, she wanted to open it up


    before but then she knew how painful it would be for her so she chose not to talk that much about it


    anymore.


    "What did she see?" Lilian asked curiously.


    "It''s about the moon goddess," he answered. The serious tone of Jackson somehow made Lilian


    suddenly feel nervous even though she shouldn''t be. She suddenly had the hunch that this talk will be


    heavy for her.


    Lilian nodded. "You said earlier that you have something to tell that has something to do with me. What


    is it? And why are you even bringing about the moon goddess all of a sudden?" Well, it actually doesn''t


    make any sense if this talk concerns her.


    "As we all know, the moon goddess is responsible for the mating process of the wolves. The goddess


    is the one who''s choosing the mate of every wolf that would be bound forever through their marks." He


    paused a bit. "But other than that, there''s one thing that you should know about it. The moon goddess


    rewards a wolf every hundred years with an extraordinary strength that would end the evil and the


    darkness of this world."


    Lilian didn''t talk, waiting for the next thing that Jackson is about to say. Well, she already knew about


    some things since she had studied those things before when she was in Midnight pack. But it was all


    limited since she''s also busy with some other things like her training and teaching some pups. And


    sometimes, she would prefer reading romance books.


    "I thought that''s just a myth? About the wolf with extraordinary strength and... stuff." She shrugged her


    shoulders. She has read something like that but what she''s sure of is it''s just a myth. Well, some are


    saying that it''s just a myth, but some are also saying that it''s all true.


    "It''s not just a myth, it really happens in our race. It was just forgotten because some wolves are not


    that traditional anymore. We''re already in the modern times era so we can''t really expect everyone to


    believe it. Every wolf has their own beliefs and practices now..." Jackson shrugged.


    Lilian nodded slowly.


    "The wolf that was rewarded by the moon goddess will be the one to kill all the evil creatures in our


    world... and that includes demons."


    Lilian''s brows furrowed this time. "Demons... There''s no such creatures like that anymore. The demons


    have been locked in the underworld a long time ago and they can nevere back again, you know


    that." She''s sure about that thing since their kinds are not lingering in this world now. If ever there''s a


    demon around, she could immediately feel it even if she''s just an omega. Demons are terrifying


    creatures, worse than rogues with a rotten scent so it will be immediately noticed by anyone.


    Jackson nodded. "Yeah. But demons were able to breed their race here in this world before. Most of


    their victims were humans, since they''re the most vulnerable target they could get. Any human that will


    give birth to a demon dies. And the child... it''s either they die or they automatically sumb to the


    underworld. But then, some of the demons that were able to survive are just hiding in the body of every


    creature, a host, waiting to be unleashed. So, the best thing that the moon goddess should do is to


    send someone to kill them all. And I don''t think you will believe me about this, but..." He gulped like


    he''s contemting if he''s going to say it or not.


    Her brows furrowed. "But what?"


    "Your mate... Alpha Karius has the blood of a demon, Lilian. His ancestor was mated to a demon


    before---"


    Jackson was cut off from what he''s saying when Lilian suddenly chuckled and shook his head


    exaggeratedly. "That''s impossible, Jackson. I know he''s a pure blooded wolf." Well, he would never be


    an alpha if he''s a half demon. Demons are known for being evil.


    "Still, he has a demon''s blood running through his veins. I know it''s hard to believe but that''s the truth."


    "No. He''s not." Lilian shook her head again.


    "If he''s also a demon, why is he not killing everyone? From what I know about a demon, they have no


    ability to think properly just like a rogue. So, care to exin that to me?" She raised a brow.


    "Because he''s just hiding it! He''s an alpha and has a huge self control to his body! That exins why!"


    Jackson said, almost shouting. Good thing they are near the falls so it will be safe for them to not be


    heard by anyone.


    Lilian still shook his head. "No, I refuse to believe what you''re saying, Jackson," she said as she stood


    up from where they were sitting. "I need to go." She''s about to turn around to go back but Jackson was


    able to hold her arm, stopping her from leaving.


    "I still haven''t told you something."


    "What is it? Tell me now."


    "The wolf that has been rewarded by the moon goddess... it was you, Lilian. Alpha Calista saw you in


    her dreams. It was your face... and she saw how you end the life of Alpha Karius ruthlessly."


    For some reason, Lilian paled at what she heard. She suddenly couldn''t move. She couldn''t even say a


    word! Her? The wolf that has been rewarded by the moon goddess? That''s impossible!


    "If you''re just going to joke around, much better if you leave now. You''re saying nonsense, Jackson.


    This is such a waste of time! How will that even happen if I''m just an omega?"


    Jackson sighed, as if he could understand what she felt. "It will happen, Lilian. The vision of your

    mother was never wrong," he said so surely.
