Chapter 87: Chapter 87
**Cassie's Point of View**
I was stunned when both of them collapsed in front of me. They abruptly turn pale, and I have no control over it. I manage to raise them and place them in the bedroom with all of my effort. I'm so scared right now that I can't think straight.
"Cassie, take a deep breath!" "You have to think straight and do something about this," I told myself as I ran until I reached my father.
“Dad! Please assist me! Dax and Derek collapse unexpectedly in my place, and I felt strange about it! This isn't normal!" It's a good thing my son isn't here yet, because we were able to visit my flat with my brother Tom.
My father noticed Dax and Derek laying on my bed, and they appear to be deceased right now. I'm at a loss for what to do! This reminded me of something that had happened before. It's the same feeling I had when I lost my best friend. This cannot happen again, and I will not allow it to!
“Dad? What is going on with them? Are they ill? "Did they receive a curse?" I inquired, and I can practically feel my heart rushing away from my ribcage since I am unable to think clearly.
My brother sat me down and handed me a cup of water. I listened to everything my father had to say. "Unfortunately, I cannot say what it is, but based on previous experience, I can see that this is not a simple illness." They haven't been poisoned or anything, but this is more of a divine power. Perhaps this is due to the fact that there is no explanation for how they became a werewolf." Is this another creation of the goddess? Why does the goddess despise me so much that she forbids me from being happy?!
All I want is to love and be happy once more. Why, after all that suffering, after all those nights and days of crying, after all that pain that I overcame and survived, am I finally happy? Why did she have to hurt me like this? All I want is to feel happy again!
I'm dizzy from crying so hard right now, but I can't just cry here and do nothing since I'm so useless. I need to accomplish something, and I should get assistance! But to whom is it addressed?
Then I recall someone who appears to be much older than he is. I am confident that he can assist me right now. He must assist me in dealing with this.
I pulled my phone from my pocket and dialed his number. Dale ought to be awake right now! I desperately need that vampire right now!
“Hello? You do realize that even if I am a vampire, I still require beauty rest, hello? Cassie? Are you in tears? What occurred? Do you require assistance? "Are you in any danger?" I can hear the tone of his concern as he asks over the phone.
"Dale, I need your assistance, Dax and Derek both collapse at the same time." "We suspect this isn't a normal occurrence," I told him.
“What?! Then I know someone who can help us," he remarked before hanging up the phone. Now all I can do is wait and wait. But it didn't take long when I heard a knock on the balcony, as it was Dale with Khan. Right! She is a dryad, a person who lives for a very long time. I'm sure she knows what's going on with my loved ones.
"Where are they?" she inquired. I cheerfully led her to her room. I'm so scared that I'm shaking right now, and Dale is assisting me in walking straight since I'm dizzy and fatigued. This is not right! I stopped blaming our goddess, but she continued to pour pain into my life in this manner. Is it amusing to watch me in this state? Is it me who is struggling the most right now, like a desperate rat?
Khan examines them, nodding as though she understands what is going on. "I see, then this is happening," she said as if she expected it. What exactly does she mean?
“Khan? "How much do you know about this?" I asked her because I know she understands what is going on here, right now.
"Dear, I saw this for a while, but I can't warn you because there is divine intervention." I can't just talk about the goddess' will. But don't worry, they're not in danger," she explained. And that is enough to put me at peace for the time being. Thankfully, they are not in danger!
"Then what exactly is happening here?" I inquired of her.
She gave a nod. "Well, you know how these two humans transform into werewolves out of nowhere, right?" The goddess is currently with them on a divine plane, and she is asking these two males if they would still accept the reality that they will be werewolves. They will have a decision, and you will have the option to join them. "I can assist," she stated.
"Please do so; I need to speak with the goddess," I told her. She took my hand in hers.
"Tell me if you are ready," she urged. After wiping away my tears, I nodded. Finally, I'll be able to meet our goddess, the creator.
"I am ready," I said confidently, but then I felt dizzy, like if the world was spinning, and I just closed my eyes, and the next thing I knew, I was in a dark garden.
It is night here, yet the moon shines so brightly that it appears 10 times larger and almost attainable. I wander through the garden, which is teeming with blue-shining butterflies. I felt at calm here, as though anyone could live here indefinitely.
Then I heard a voice from the opposite side of the garden. And you have no idea how relieved I was when I spotted Derek and Dax sitting on a chair, as if they were having tea.
"Derekt, Dax!" I yelled and hugged them tightly. I'm very concerned about them. I can't express how relieved I am.
"You are here," a soothing voice whispered, and I saw the most gorgeous woman I had ever seen in my life. She appears to be gleaming in her white gown, and she exudes divinity.
"Our goddess?" I have no choice except to kneel, but she stops me.
''No, please do not kneel, for I am here to seek for your forgiveness, for I became a weak goddess," she remarked, which bewildered me and made me feel bad because I cannot deny that I blame Her for every hardship that I encountered in this life.
"Please, our goddess, there is no need for you to feel guilty, because I am the one who should be condemned because I am so ungrateful and blame everything on you, our goddess," I told my goddess, who was staring at me with sadness in her eyes.
"It is also my fault, my child. I know how unexpectedly you lost your other half. It is not yet his time, but he died as a result of some interference that I could not manage to stop, so I am here to explain everything." And here I am, with a slew of thoughts racing through my mind, attempting to find an answer for the... And why does the goddess believe that everything is too soon?
We sat down and as if by magic, there was plenty of food and tea in front of us. She smiled and suggested that we eat as well.
"Kaiden is a strong alpha with a kind heart and a bright future ahead of him, as I chose him to lead your pack, who is always loyal to me." But it appears that I am mistaken, as I was duped by a dark power while sleeping, and that is where a force manufactured an event that resulted in your mate's tragic death," she stated. As far as I can tell, everything seems plain to me. Someone as powerful as I can't contemplate assisting Xander in my mate's unfortunate death.
I cried when I realized how heavy it is for me. I had assumed that his death was predetermined, but I was mistaken when I discovered that this was not the case. It's all because of that nasty bastard! He'll pay for it.
"Before I go, I want to say that I want to revive your mate but I can't because it's an ultimate taboo, but I saved these guys from death." Yes, Derek, after that vehicle accident, I saved you, as did Dax, who saved you from those terrorists." If that's the case, I'm overjoyed.
“Cassie?” When I heard that familiar voice, I froze. It feels surreal, as if I'm dreaming or something, but here comes Kaiden, strolling in front of me. And I just can't quit hugging him.
"I miss you, I miss you, I love you so much, Kaiden," I sobbed into his arms, as this is all I could think of.
''What are you crying about? I assumed you were content now. "Please be happy now," he begged, but how could I be when all I want is him?
"What are you crying about?" "I don't want you to cry when it's our first meeting in a long time," he said to me as if I were just his best buddy. Yes, it has been a long time since then. I really miss my friend.
"You can't hold it against me! "You know how much I miss you, and you have no idea how lonely it feels without you," I said to him, pointing to the agony in my chest.
"Of course I know, because I'm always paying attention to you." But I'm delighted these two are looking after you and our youngster. I also miss Charlie; I can see how quickly he has grown and how much he resembles me. Tell him he'll be wonderful someday," he added, making me cry even more, but he merely teased me more.
"Stop crying, you're turning ugly, and I promise I won't leave again." "The Luna has a message for you." That piques my interest.
The Luna abruptly speaks, directing its words to Derek and Dax. "I'm saving you both for a greater good." I will inject Kaiden's spirit into you if you accept to inherit his memories and part of his soul. Do not be alarmed; he will not own you; you will still own your body, but he will now reside on your heart and mind if you so desire. That is why I shall divide Kaiden's heart in half. Do not be perplexed, as your feelings for Cassie are genuine, and I did not touch your heart to make you feel this way. But your decision is still important; if you say yes, this will not take much of your time, but if you say now, just one of you, it means that both of you will be restored as humans," the Luna explained. As of now, I understand what is going on. Despite my desire for this, I gaze at them and grin.
"If you reject that and choose another path, know that I will not hate you or be angry because that is your choice." I understand that it is preferable if you do not linger on my dilemma. But I'd want to say that I've grown to adore both of you. I'm just going to apologize because my love for Kaiden is the strongest, but it doesn't mean my love for the two of you is any less strong." I look into their eyes and am astounded to discover that there is no doubt.
"I am willing to accept your flaws because I love you with all my heart and know that no one is forcing my heart to feel that way." I heartily accept the offer. "I will love you, so Kaiden, I may not know you, but I promise to protect and cherish your mate and your son," Derek stated, which was more than enough reassurance.
"I am as well, and I want to express my willingness to accept that." If it weren't for her, I'd still be the cowardly guy, but she healed me and made me feel special, so I embrace it," Dax replied. And the goddess smiled as she raised her head to view them.
