《The Kings Human Queen》21. Morning Light
Advertisement
It had been 10 days since Alex went to sleep after I marked her. I was growing worried that something was wrong. The doctor kept reassuring me that she was fine. All of her vitals were normal and her scent was changing indicating that she was connecting with her wolf.
True to my word I keep Alex with me at all times. I bathed her and brushed her hair. Clothed her and carried her around with me everywhere.
You could feel the excitement of the pack as we all wondered what her wolf would look like. I didn't care as long as she was ok.
Having breakfast with my family in the dinning room I had Alex on my lap. I put her arms around my neck and had her straddled on top of me with her face in my neck as that's her favorite place to be.
I finished breakfast and was rubbing her back, I noticed earlier all the scars from what Randall did to her had faded and were almost gone. I was glad she wouldn't be left with scars as a reminder of what happened.
Suddenly Alex shot up and looked right into my eyes. My heart fluttered with happiness that she was finally awake. But her eyes were not her own. They shinned bright silver. A color no wolf has ever had.
Alex's wolf smiled at me. "Hello mate." She said rubbing her nose against mine.
"Hello." I said smiling happy that her wolf knew who I was.
One minute Alex is on my lap the next she's in the chair next to me moving faster than any wolf. We all jumped at the sudden movement.
Alex's wolf saw our expressions and smiled sheepishly. "Sorry I forgot your a bit slower than I am." She said
Colt got off his chair and walked over to Alex's wolf. "Hello little one." She said "I remember when you were created, I remember when you all were created." She continued picking Colt up and letting him nuzzle her neck. We all stared at her in shock.
Finally Elyssa spoke up. "What do you mean you remember when we were created?" She said, asking the question that was on all of our minds.
"Forgive me, I should introduce myself. I am Celeste, first and only daughter of the Moon Goddess Selene."
"Sorry to have kept you waiting so long, I know you expected it to only be a few days, but Alex and I had to go through each other's memories and lives and for one as old as I am, it took a bit longer." She said smiling at me.

"Your the Moon Goddesses daughter?" Asked my Father open mouthed
"Yes, let me explain, I know you all have heard stories, but they are just that stories, none of them have a ring of truth to them." She laughed grabbing my hand to hold and closing her eyes for a moment. I could tell she was enjoying the sparks.
"You see My Mother Selene was admired for her beauty and serenity, the God Zeus or Jupiter as he is known, fell in lust with her, not love. She on the other hand hated him as she see's marriages as an unbreakable bond. She didn't like that he slept around on Hera, his wife. Instead she feel in love with a human. He had bonded with some of her wolves and it intrigued her as none of her wolves had ever truly liked anyone but her.
When Zeus found out he was furious and he struck the man with lighting trying to kill him. In an effort to save her love one of the wolves he befriended, an Alpha, offered to share his life force with the man to save his goddess from the pain of loss.
Thus my father came to be, the first werewolf. As time wore on he was able to be at one with the wolf and they would change forms intertwining their souls and protecting their packs and my mother. Around this time my mother gave birth to me and my twin brother. When we were born we could shift as well, a trait passed from our father.
While my mother named me Celeste I have other names you may know me by such as Artemis and Diana. My brother Osiris is also known as Apollo. It's a common mistake that history keeps saying that Zeus is our father, when in fact he is not.
We were the only children Selene gave birth to. While she considers all wolves her children the rest of you were created by her, not born from her. When my mother creates a wolf she creates them in pairs, as mates. Alex said it puts her in mind of ying and yang. Two sides of the same soul.
Over centuries I have been by my mother's side helping her and watching over her created children. I came down to earth when the battle of the Gods came to earth. I fought with my mother's children in the Greek times as Artemis and Roman times as Diana, where I fell.
Normally when wolves meet their mate and have a honorable life my mother lets the human and the wolf side pass on into paradise where they can be together for all of eternity, always together. Because I didn't have a mate, when I died I returned to my mother's palace and continued helping her, no longer able to return to earth.

My mother has each wolf's life force in small marbles on selves next to their mates, waiting for the perfect time to be brought to earth. You can tell the mates because there is an pink line linking them together, no matter where you put them, or how far apart, the line remains. If a wolf's mate dies before they can meet she will pair them with a human for that life time so they can still live a happy and fulfilling life.
When a wolf doesn't meet his mate or doesn't have an honorable life we wipe their human memories and my mother reincarnates them to give them a second chance at reaching paradise. Normally wolves only take 2 or three lifetimes before they complete the task.
Mates fascinated me. As time grew on I often wondered what it would be like to be loved in the way my mother's other children got to. My brother Osiris even had our mother send him to earth and she gave him a mate. But because she wasn't a true born to him mate, after they both passed she moved on to be reincarnated with her true mate while my brother returned to us and would watch over her new life in sadness.
I wanted a mate more than anything, but couldn't go through the heart break my brother did, even though my mother offered many times to return me to earth before I died, I just couldn't do it.
Then centuries ago. Something happened. A wolf was created without a mate. It had never happened before. My mother didn't know what to do and she cried for years over the wolf's predicament. She felt responsible. Something about the wolf drawled me to him. I thought at first maybe it was because he didn't have a mate like me.
I watched over the wolf throughout his lives. Never finding a true mate. Sometimes finding a choice mate, or a mate my mother would send him and finding some form of happiness. My heart broke for him. I was drawn to him, but couldn't explain why. And finally on his 7th reincarnation the reason why he didn't have a mate came to light. 18 years ago a human girl was born. Suddenly there was a human life force in a marble next to the wolf born without a mate and they had a golden line linking them together.
My mother was thrilled at the possibility of the mate less wolf finally having a mate. But no one know where she came from. And she was human.
Normally my mother has a wolf spirit prepared for the human mated to an Alpha as she has them paired before birth. But this time she didn't. She spent years visiting the little girl in her dreams. Trying to find the right wolf for her. When the girl turned 15 my mother came back one day and huffed that the girl was so stubborn it reminded her of me.
Then it all clicked into place. We didn't notice, but we should have. The girl looked just like my human form. Because I had already died on earth my mother couldn't send me down. Fate intervened and created Alex just for me. And centuries earlier had created a wolf just for me.
Shadow was that wolf. He was created just for me. And Xavier and Alex were created for each other. I am so sorry it took so long my love." Celeste said rubbing circles on my hand with her thumb.
Suddenly Shadow took over. "I would wait a 1,000 life times for just one with you." He said kissing her hand.
Shadow and Celeste pulled back and let Alex and I come to the front.
"She is so cool, and to see the things she's seen. It's amazing. I always loved Greek mythology, but to see it play out from her memories was amazing!" Alex gushed excited.
"I missed you Alex." Colt suddenly said shocking us all.
"I missed you too little man." Alex said tickling him.
He hopped off her lap and went to play with his sister. "I have to put that in his baby book! His first words!" Elyssa exclaimed running off to her room.
"It had to be Alex, couldn't have been Da." Fergus said grumbling.
Alex laughed sticking her tongue out at him.
After breakfast Alex pulled me to our bedroom, I knew right then her wolf was a lot stronger than mine. She shoved me in the room, slamming the door behind her and locking it.
She turned to face me with a growl and her eyes shinning silver. "My wolf wants to play." She said.
We spent the rest of the day in bed worshipping each other and letting our wolves have their fun.
