The Eclipsed Life of Luna Mischa (by Jennifer Francis) novel Chapter 221

The Goddess

Will of the Goddess

Misha

She didn’t stop Declan from touching her belly, not even her face. She just smiled up at him and let him lean down and kiss her, and even though there was a room full of people, it practically curled her toes, it was she knew, not just a display for Anthony to see as she’d thought it was going to be.

Something to prove to him there were no pains of betrayal, because he’d yet to pick up on the fact that she and Declan were Marked and Mated to each other. Though they both stood there before him, their filigree on display, he’d not looked at either of their necks.

But that kiss was slow and loving, and she heard Wild growl all wantonly towards Laud inside her mind, as her eyes fluttered closed as she kissed him back, she loved him and the way he kissed her was always full of loving intent. She couldn’t help but melt into him and get lost in the moment with him.

Misha broke that kiss at the sound of Anthony’s gasp of “No” into the room as it actually dawned on him what was going on.

That another was kissing his Mate and he felt no pains of betrayal at all, she saw as his eyes moved to her neck, even as he shook his head as if still in denial, even though he was now staring at the double filigree she bore. She could see he was trying to absorb that his Mate was claimed by another and he knew nothing about it.

That she bore another’s Mark and filigree, “N… No… You’re my Mate, how is it possible?” Anthony stammered out.

She rolled her eyes and shook her head, heard Declan snort. “Oh come now, are you so dumb or just plain ignorant?” Declan stated and slid his arm around her to rest his hand on her hip. She felt his fingers make almost lazy circles against it.

She watched on as Anthony stepped towards her, a hand out as if beckoning her, as if she was to go to him, and she held a hand up to him, “You can stay over there, I’m not interested in coming to you, our bond you ruined yourself. It’s been over for a very long time,” she stated simply, but matter-of-factly.

“You are my Mate and Luna,” Anthony reiterated, as if he just couldn’t accept this.

“I have been blessed by the Goddess a second time and I did not hesitate to accept Alpha Declan as my Mate. I just accepted the will of the Goddess and her plan for me.” She spoke the words he’d once told her when scenting Christy and then added to it, how they lived by the will of the Goddess.

He shook his head ‘no’ once more, and she laughed. “What only you can have two Mates? Is that how you think of yourself? You’re so important that only you could be blessed and granted a second Mate.”

She saw him go a little pale as he finally came to understand she had been granted another Mate and for her to bare filigree and him to still be alive it was indeed the will of their Goddess. She ran a hand over her neck and his eyes moved to it on pure instinct, “Declan’s filigree is beautiful and holds the true place of a loving Mate.

“It eclipses your Mark because you are unworthy of being my Mate, even in Selena’s eyes. I asked her to grant me a new Mate, and she gave not only myself but Laud everything we asked for, which was for me; a Mate that was very handsome, with deep dark soulful eyes and wild wavy hair to run my hands through.”

Laud pushed forward to look at Anthony and stated, “Fast and strong, a little devious and fun. Knows without a doubt what he wants. Fur like his hair, everything wild about his beast,” Laud voiced. “I was blessed with exactly that.”

They turned and looked at Declan as a soft growl came from them and they both chuckled at him. She’d declined to tell him what they’d asked for, thinking it might boost his ego too much at the time, but looking at him now, all it did was turn him on. She could hear the desire in that growl and feel it through their bond.

“You’re the devil,” Declan murmured.

She smiled and shrugged. “I’d have told you at some point, here and now… I guess is the right time.” She told him. Then turned to face Anthony once more. “You chose the path you wanted, chose to shunt me aside, allowed Christy to eclipse me, and you were the one that chose to abandon me in every way.

“Now I choose my path, and I willingly return the favors you bestowed upon me and Laud. You, Anthony, are not to be a part of my life anymore. I, as a she-wolf with two Alpha Mates, get to choose who I will be Mated to and Laud and I have chosen Alpha Declan as our Goddess-Gifted Mate.”

“Don’t do it, Mischa, it doesn’t need to happen. I won’t feel anything while you’re with him. We can stay as Mates,” Anthony rushed out.

“Stay as Mates?” Declan snarled, and she heard Wild behind it, “After everything you put her through, you still want to keep her bound to you.”

Mischa put a gentle hand on him. “I’ve got this.” She told him and his eyes met hers. “Shh.” She tried to settle his beast and heard Laud tell wild ‘trust in us, don’t think we need you to fight our battle. He is not worth your time.’

Her eyes moved to Anthony once more, “You still want to keep us bound to you, I see, but no more is it the will of the Goddess. She gives to her wolves choices to make at times, allowing them to still abide by the will of their Goddess no matter what they choose. That is all i did.. Only you want to stay bound to me, and it’s not because you love us, but because you don’t want to lose face in front of your allies, by having to tell them I left you.”

She pointed right to his neck. “If you truly loved me, you’d not bear her mark at all, and you’d have killed her when she tried to get you to kill me, with carefully crafted words of impossibility, words proven by the Elders were a full lie. Yet you keep her bound to you, as you do me.

“I believe you do this, because you knew deep down it was over between you and I, the moment you accused me of trying to harm Christy in a manner that would see my head come off. You heard my words about rejection the day of the investigation, you heard the words of the Elders about Christy being a traitor, and knew you were going to lose both of us.

“So you bound me by the words of the will of the Goddess, but kept a traitor in your bed, impregnated her, and still even now you’re trying to get me back, you’ve kept her, a she-wolf known to want me dead even to you. Why you do this? That is because it’s inevitable that one of us leaves you, me to be precise.

“You keep her solely, so you’ve still got a Mate to fall back on and nothing more. I wish you luck in living with a traitorous wolf by your side and having her bear your pups… I, Misha Talbot, reject you Anthony Trenery as my Mate. I choose Alpha Declan Talbot as my Mate. I will be his Luna and birth his heirs.” She voiced her rejection of Anthony.

“You said you’d never voice a rejection and would stay true to the will of the Goddess.” Anthony gasped out as he clutched at his chest, as he started to feel the severing of their bond. She knew he wasn’t supposed to feel anything. The Goddess generally spared the second Mate that. Seems not in this case, though surprisingly she was spared everything, it was just gone she wasn’t bound to him anymore. Her choice was clear and words stated firmly with sound resolve.

She shook her head, “I am true to the will of the Goddess, don’t you get it? Is your brain so screwed up by Christy’s venom that you can’t understand it is the will of Selena for me to now choose the life I want to live. I am simply doing that,” she stated.

She saw his wolf push forward and look at her, and she raised an eyebrow at him. “You are no more excusable than your human. Selena chose to gift Laud one that was worthy of her because. You, Shade, are not worthy, she will not speak with you.”

She saw Shade recede and looked at Anthony. “Accept the rejection and leave, you are not welcome here.” She told him.

“Accept it, or I will make you,” Alpha Nicholas voiced. “I have taken Misha as my older sister, so as her brother, you will accept her wishes, or I will make you bow down to her and force you to voice the words ‘you are unworthy’, as well as the rejection.”

Anthony turned and looked at him, and she saw him stagger about as both his hands now clutched at his chest and he kind of fell to one knee and then collapsed all the way down to the floor, a hand on the floor as pain filled his expression.
