《ZEUS》Chapter 53
Advertisement
I felt strange having all of these memories that I forgot I even made. Remembering a life I didn't know I had. Ever since I woke up a couple of hours ago, I've been rethinking about everything that had happened in my life.
I'm Esme...but I'm also Lily. I'm two in the same. I felt relieved that even though I had found myself...I still felt like the Lily I knew from a couple of days ago
I looked at everybody around me, talking. I smiled. It was like when I was little. Everybody was standing outside, hugging and laughing together. I gulped, I was afraid I could never see such a thing in my life. I was actually really afraid that once all of this was over that the Moon Goddess would take my sight away because there was no need of it anymore.
But I felt myself become of my new memory of the time I had with the Moon Goddess herself.
I had woken up in a garden I recognised it. I've been here before. It used to be home. My sanctuary.
The Moon Goddess was sitting on a chair, surrounded by white lilies, "Come child, let me see your face."
I gulped as I cautiously approached her She looked so beautiful. So pure. I knelt down on my knees in front of her and bowed down, "I hope I did the right thing...but I'm not sure."
She smiles and leans over cupping the side of my face in a motherly manner, "My darling you did exactly what you had to do. You had found the flower. It was you all along."
I gulped and looked up, "I was afraid that you would take your powers away from me. If I had only listened to Kyro and left when he wanted to, we might have prevented all of this."
She shook her head, "No. Everything happened how it should. Do not feel responsible, my darling."
I giggled, "I can't believe I finally remembered who I am. I feel good being me again."
The Moon Goddess's eyes softened, "But you are not you, still."
I tilted my head in confusion, probing her to explain.
"Yes you are Esme, but you are also Lily. You have a whole different life to remember other than Esme's. Esme and Lily are very similar, but they are not the same, my darling."

"So I am new? I am someone that is the same and yet completely different."
The Moon Goddess smiles, "You have evolved."
I gulped and looked down at my hands and frowned, "What of Zeus's fate? Please help them, send anyone you can. I can't bare the thought of Zeus being defeated."
"What would you do for this?"
There was nothing I could do. Except one, "Take my sight. Take my eyes."
The Moon Goddess sat in surprise, "You would trade the one thing you always wanted for me to help them?"
"I killed myself for Zeus. I died so than he could be free. My sight is the least of my problems right now."
"No."
My head snaps up and frowned, "No?"
She smiles and shook her head, "You have done enough, my darling. You have sacrificed enough. Maybe it is time to gift you instead."
I sat there patiently. Awaiting for what she was going to say.
"I will gift you your eyes as a permanent reward."
My eyes widened, "You would do that?"
"Of course. You have practically saved earth, Lily. That is not something to take lightly. You have brought balance to the cosmos again."
"What of Zeus?"
"You let me deal with that."
I felt myself relax in peace knowing that they would be alright. And that I could forever have my sight back. .
I smiled at the fond memory. I don't think I will ever hear from the Moon Goddess ever again. At least until our bodies die and we are ascended.
"Lily." My mate approaches me. He offers my hand to help me off of the ground. I stand up and he instantly grabs my waist and pulls me against his body.
He leans in and kisses me. Then he kisses my forehead, "It's time, love."
Zeus gives me a little candle and we both walk to the water. He keeps his arm securely around my shoulders and leads me to the lake where I grew up. Everybody and lit a candle each. There was a moment of silence. Everybody was praying and thinking of the loved ones they lost. All the mates and their families who had died in the battle.
I thought of Donny. The memory was still burned into my mind, imprinting it forever.

People in their own time, walked to the bank and released the flame into the water, watching it float off. Soon everybody began to do the same.
I bent down and placed my flame in the water. Memories of Donny overflowed my mind. All good memories of course. His smiles. His laugh. His cheeky boyish wink he always did. I loved him so much.
I released the flame, watching it flow with all of the others. Soon the whole lake was covered in little candle lights. It looks beautiful. Some people believe that when lighting a candle for someone you lost, you are lighting their path so than they can find their way to the heavens.
It is a nice thought. A thought that would comfort people in knowing that their loved ones would be okay.
I felt my eyes sting in tears as I saw my candle float off. I leaned my head against Zeus's chest. He kisses my head and rests his own on tip of mine, "He's alright, Lil. Knowing Donny, he's probably going to haunt us for the rest of our lives."
I giggled. I think he just might.
Everybody went back the the Blood Moon pack and we all celebrated. It was a time of being thankful for being alive and spending time with family.
Zeus and I were sitting on a log near the giant bonfire my uncle soul made. He was so excited to make one. I giggled.
I looked at Zeus and saw he was already staring at me, "What're you staring at?" I asked cheekily
"Well I'm staring at you, love."
He wraps his arms around my waist and lifts me up He sits me on his lap which causes me to laugh a bit. I wrap my arm around his shoulder for support and he just looks up at me.
I stroke his cheek, "What happens now, Zeus?"
"What do you mean?"
I gulped, "We're not the same as we were before. We're not just Zeus and Lily anymore. We're a star and a god. That's a big difference."
He grabs my hand, "Are you scared, love?"
I nodded my head, "Yes," I confessed, "I just don't know how to handle it."
He smiles up at me, probably the biggest smile I had ever seen on his emotionless face, "We live, my love. We are a new version. A better one. I chose to remain here with you because we started our love as Zeus and Lily and we will leave this world just as that."
"And what about when we leave this world? What then?"
He chuckles, "Then our love will continue on in the next life, and then the next life and then in the next life, love. All we have to do enjoy it all."
I smiled down at my mate and lean in to give him a kiss.
"But," Zeus said, "For the time being, The Moon Goddess has gifted you with eyesight forever, so I have made it my goal to show you what you've been missing out on."
"What?"
He smiles, "I want to show you every beautiful thing this world has to offer. This world was made for you to be able to be seen by your eyes, love. And I'm going to make that happen."
I leaned in and rested my forehead on his, "What if we have children?"
His smile widens, "Then we will take them. We will travel with all of our children."
I laugh, "How many do you think we will have?"
He shrugs cheekily, "At least five."
My eyes widen, "Five?"
"Or more."
I laughed and shook my head, "Well if they're all yours then I'm in."
He gives me a small grin, "Well if we're gonna have kids...maybe we should start practising."
I laughed and hit his shoulder.
I took in a deep breath and looked all of my family laughing and enjoying themselves. I saw all of my aunties sitting on my uncles laps, including my mother and father.
It's funny to think this all started with them. The original three. First it was Xander and Lizzy. And Noah and Mia and then Solomon and Ayla. Ever after years and years of being together, they were all so madly in love. And they also loved each other. They were all the best of friends.
I looked down at Zeus. Now it was my turn.
Zeus got up, still holding me bridal style and we both went inside. I pointed him in the direction of my old room. Whoa! It's so weird to be back here after so long.
He lies me on the bed and bends down and began to kiss me. I grabbed until his waist and pulled him closer to my body. He chuckles in my lips, "You hungry huh?"
I smiled, "Maybe a little."
"Don't worry, love. I'll satisfy you."

Young master Damien's pet
"Who touched you?" he asked, his eyes brooding down at her and when she didn't answer, his voice thundered in the room, "WHO?" The butler who stood near the wall spoke shakily, "Sir it was Mr. Reverale," Damien's face turned sour, his jaw ticking in anger he turned his face to the side where the butler stood behind."Bring the man here.""N-now?" stuttered the butler. It was the time of night.Damien who hadn't broken his eyes contact with the girl in front of him pushed his hand against the wall which previously rested beside his beautiful girl's head. Turning his body, he first looked at his butler who had his head bowed. With great courage, the butler came to meet his master's eyes, "Do you have any other better time? Or should it be after I wring your neck?" Damien asked calmly tilting his head. Not a second later, the butler ran out of the room to return back with Mr. Reverale after twenty minutes. "Damien, are we having a late tea party?" Mr. Reverale came to greet but the master of the house had other plans. Spotting the knife that was stuck to the apple on the table, he reached for it to pull it out. Just as Mr. Reverale went to exchange a handshake with him, Damien took hold of his hand to place it on the table. In one swift movement as if he were chopping onions, he chopped the four fingers of the man off his hand making him yelp and cry in pain."No one touches what is mine. I am sure this will remind you the next time you even think about touching her," sighed Damien as if he were tired of telling people to keep their dirty hands off his belongings.
