Chapter 48 Prove Me Wrong

Sabrina's POV

"So you were born on earth, raised by grandfather and nana, who returned to this realm a bit after
having you?" I ask my mother, who nods in response.

"I'm aware nana and grandfather moved to human town because nana was bullied. This is true
because I've heard about it from pack members

back at Blue Moon but did you honestly grow up on earth?" I ask.

"I was in between. Your grandmother moved back to this realm as soon as possible, trying to get her
powers back. The previous moon goddess, your grandmother was punishing her so she would not
budge. Mates are sacred law and your nana broke the law, our most important one of all. I would visit
the realm, giving me a few years here, wherein I'd spent half a day away from earth.” My mother
explains.

"Ethia introduced herself as luna when we first met.” I say looking between Hunter and mother.

"That is the name you will take as moon goddess. When you meet earthlings who have died or who
you decide to show yourself to, you will introduce yourself as luna. That is the name all moon
goddesses take, it has been that way since the beginning." Hunter says to me.

"How was she able to yield moon goddess power?" I ask, still looking between Hunter and my mother.

"There is an initiation that takes place once you have completed training which will unlock the moon
goddess in you. In your case, it has been unlocked already and if it isn't, the elders let you wear the
ancient jewels which help center the power on you. That is what Ethia did, she had the

jewels to help her gain a power that did not belong to her." Hunter says to me, anger very evident in his
voice.



"She had help, Ethia. In the time after Hunter chose me and I was pregnant with you and Anthony, she
created a group. Found people who had grown tired of the first family and their rule. Those people
helped execute her plan in killing anyone in her way and obtaining the five weapons that could kill
anyone from the first family. Two swords, two daggers and a bayonet. Everyone in the heavenly realm
has gifts, we are born with them but the first family have something we regulars don't have and that is
greater strength and immortality. Ethia recruited specifically on gifts and ranking.

After the killing of your grandmother, we had to go into hiding in fear of the very same weapons that
almost took your life." My mother tells me.

"So you fell pregnant and then what?" I ask.

"It was a happy time finding out I was with child or children. That solidified my place with your father
and definitely made the girls after him, stay away." Mother says to me but looking at Hunter.

"The girls in this realm never liked me much. Mainly because Hunter was my mate.” Mother tells me
but Hunter chuckles.

"Now that's a lie. They did not like you because their mates wanted you. Just as Ethia wanted me and
she went crazy, your mother had the boys going crazy too. I had to punch a lot of boys in my day to get
them to back off and even that was not enough. When I eventually claimed her, when everyone found
out she was carrying my children, they backed off. Although I guess they weren't exactly given a
choice. We fled, in fear of not knowing who was against us. The moment I found out my best friend's
family sided with Ethia, I knew we were on our own and the most important thing was to protect the
children, you and Anthony." Hunter says me. His face held so much hurt, I could feel betrayal coming
off of him.

His best friend betrayed him.

"So mother went back to earth and you?" I ask Hunter.



"We hid on earth too but on opposite ends. Although I would visit the heavenly realm from time to time."
He says to me.

"Was that not dangerous?" I ask.

"It was but I had to sneak in, to try and find out who was against us and how to defeat them. I had an
elder as a mole, who would hide my comings and goings, he would fill me in on Ethia.” Hunter explains
to me.

"Did you also pick up a human mate whilst on earth?" I ask and Hunter looks down sheepishly.

"No. I did not mark anyone other than your mother. I did not father any other children besides you and
Anthony but I won't lie and say I never took another woman to bed. I have already come clean to your
mother and she chose to forgive me.” Hunter says and I chuckle.

"Well duh! Of course she forgives you. You dated Ethia when you knew who belonged to you, she
forgave you for that too. I'm starting to think, had you not dated Ethia and everyone just stuck to their
mates, we would not be in this mess. You knew from a very young age that Kimberly here, belonged to
you but you still had to go around and taste other women. This thing of men getting to sleep around
and women having to keep their virtue is disgusting, really! I can't believe I have to reprimand my own
father but I will. You did wrong by mother, obviously she's no saint too after finding out she tricked my
dad but you started the road of deceit and lust, you opened that door." I say looking at Hunter, folding
my arms for that added effect.

"Had you claimed her, worked for her love and only hers then none of this crazy that I have to deal
with, would be happening. You do realize that I'm the cleaner here? I'm the one stuck having to clean
up the brutal mess you both have made. My sister is a vampire for crying out loud and there is a
vampire king that's crazy enough about Jose, so crazy that he tried to kill her mates to have her all to
himself. I have two fathers, the one that created me and the one that raised me. I have a nana that tried



to kill me, my mate and my son. I am on mate number three but it doesn't end there, no. I have a fourth
mate that's waiting on my current mate to die so he can take his rightful place. Do you know how bad
my insides are turning against me just for not being with my true mate? I am suffering but I don't even
have the time to suffer or be in misery. A vampire king kidnapped newborn babies and in case
everyone has forgotten, I have a son to raise." I say, drained from the shouting and scolding of my
parents.

Clearly I'm the adult here and clearly, Christopher did a better job at raising me because he did not
swing his dick around in front of anyone. He “And not forgetting, my father is in hospital because his
wolf is weak. He is weak because mother, after leaving him did not erase the magic she used to
manipulate my father into being her mate. No, you carried on with your life while he suffered and now I
could potentially lose my father.

How can his wolf come back from such a betrayal? Obviously he still loves you because fake mate
bond but he is aware now that you played him. I just, I'm just. Finish the story." I say. I run my fingers
through my hair in frustration.

There was silence for a time, where not one person uttered a word. All I could hear was different
people breathing and calm heartbeats around me.

Calm. I was not calm.

"When I moved to earth for good, I was carrying you. I met Deacon but I could not have him raise you,
with good reason but luckily he introduced me to your father. Look, I'm not completely heartless, I did
love him." Mother says to me and I roll my eyes.

"Just not the way a mate bond would have you love him." I retort. Mother smiles but the smile does not
reach his eyes.



"No. I knew he had a good heart and came from a stable home where he was taught proper values. I
knew then when I was carrying you that I would not be able to raise you with Ethia looking to kill us. I
could not stay in werewolf territory so I stuck with my parents and when I gave birth to you, my
grandfather took you in. See, Ethia had no idea that I hid you with Christopher. She also had no idea
that Hunter had Anthony, she had no idea I had given birth to twins. Your nana had no idea too, all she
knew was what your grandfather told her, that there was you. Unfortunately, your grandmother chose
sides and gave you up but luckily you did not show any heavenly powers that unsettled Ethia so she let
you live out your life, with some meddling to test you out time and time again." Mother says to me.

"I had Josey with your father, because I did love him. Josey is a product of love, you have to believe
me. I used the amulet on your father but I also used it on you, to seal your moon goddess gifts.
Keeping you out of danger, because even if I could not give you a proper upbringing, I knew
Christopher would and he did. Look at you!" Mother says and I smile. Yes, my father was an awesome
dad and he did a fantastic job at raising me.

"You had people come to us and tell us you died." I say as the memory of dad explaining to little Jose
and I that our mother had passed away.

We didn't understand then as the days would go by and we would ask when mother was coming back.

"Hunter sent an elder who came to me, in the human realm to say Ethia was coming for me so I had to
flee. I could not bring the danger to you or anyone that did not deserve it. I hopped from one place to
another, hiding from Ethia but leaving enough evidence only she could find that would lead her away
from you and finally faked my own death.” Mother says and Hunter let's out a sigh.

"Ethia found me and explained that we could be together now that Kimberly was out of the way. She
did not mind that I had a child with Kim, as long as the child stayed on earth and she gives me a child
that will rule as moon goddess. Ethia found me a few days before you unlocked your powers. I thought
she had killed Kimberly but she was not there to profess her love. See, when I would sneak into the



realm, I was stealing the weapons that could kill us and also gain information. I destroyed all of the
weapons except the one that she used to kill you and that is why Anthony was so upset. He thought I
had destroyed them all, but I left one. Not just to kill any of you but because we also need such a
weapon.” Hunter says and I raise my eyebrow for him to explain further.

"Being born of the first family is a privilege, but it also comes with it's challenges. We can go crazy,
crazier than the rogues you have on earth and those weapons were created to kill us if we ever
became that rabid. It is the only way to kill a member of the first family who carries the DNA of the first
family. Your mother is not immortal but your son is and that is also dangerous. You are also dangerous,
Anthony too. The animalistic tendencies just happen and it's dangerous to not have such a weapon to
kill one of us because if one of us goes crazy, there is no holding us. There is no cell, no prison in the
world that will hold us." Father tells me and guilt washes over me.

I had destroyed the very last of those weapons.

"I destroyed the last one." I say in a whisper.

"You had every right. Ethia stole it from me when she came to tell me that Kimberly was dead. It was a
ploy to keep me busy while one of her subjects stole it. I was careless, it is my fault." Hunter says and I
shake my head no.

"You did not know that Kimberly would fake her death." I say and my mother scoffs.

"It is mom or mother to you. No child of mine will call me by my name." Mother says and I just shake
my head.

"No. I had no idea that was her plan so for some time I truly believed your mother was dead. I did not
feel it but I took it as being on earth for so long and not intouch with my wolf abilities. We were also
hiding in human land but close enough to the woods so we could shift and give our wolves a chance to



breath. I can tell you that having to train a young werewolf pup in human settlement is a nightmare but I
raised Anthony.” Hunter says and I smile at that.

Josey walks in, all cleaned up in a pair of blue Jean's and a collar shirt.

"Having a family reunion? Without me?" Josey jokes and we all chuckle.

"How are they?" I ask and the smile fades from Josey's face.

"Evan and the elders insist they stay behind for some time, just until they learn to control their urges.
They aren't even sure about me since my feeding on humans." Josey says to me.

"How are you feeling?” Hunter asks and he steps forward to be closer to all of us.

"I feel fine. I'm not about to go feasting on weak defenseless humans but that's another story on
hunters.” Josey says to Hunter.

"Look Brina, Cayden asked for his release." Josey says and my eyes bulge out.

"Oh?" I say... I was supposed to say that in my head but anyway.

"Yeah. He is ready to go back to his kingdom or whatever is left of it to rebuild." Josey tells me.

Truth be told, Cayden was no longer a threat to me. I just had to make sure Evan keeps an eye on him
at all times.



Although Evan would be watching from up here, I still need someone on earth to make sure he does
not go kidnapping more pups for his own gain.





"And you will go with him, to make sure he does not go kidnapping more werewolf pups to create an
army. This was your assignment and you will carry it through and if he kidnaps one pup, you kill him." I
say and Josey smiles as if I said something that pleases her.



"I was hoping you'd say that. I will be returning with him in hopes to finish what I started and to make
sure he or Thomas won't go trying to avenge their loved ones.” Josey says to me.



With what Cayden did to her mates, this was a little odd. Josey was too eager to go back to earth with
Cayden but if she so badly wants to prove herself by completing this task, I will not stand in her way.



I've always been the stronger one, the smarter one. The one that everyone relies on and I know Josey
just wants to show everyone she is just as capable but if only she knew that everyone relied on her.
Until she can admit this to herself, she was doing this more to prove to herself that she is capable.



"Fine. I'll have Evan return you both." I say and Josey's smile disappears again.



"Cherisse too." She says and I smile.





"There is no way in hell or earth that I will allow that cold ass blood sucking no good for nothing mate
killer to leave with my sister and his. He gets to keep you and I get to keep Cherisse. You let him know
I will take good care of his sister in the hopes that he will do the same with you." I say and Josey let's
out a sigh.



"Huff and puff all you want. If he wants to leave that cell, he will have to do it without his sister. If you
stay alive, Cherisse stays alive too. End of that discussion." I say. Josey nods her head in
understanding as Evan walks in.



"Evan, take Josey and the vampire king back to earth. Tell the king that I will keep his sister as he has
mine. As long as Josey stays alive and well, Cherisse will live.” I say and Evan nods his head, walking
out of the room, followed by Josey.

"You are coming into your role." Hunter compliments and I smile but I was a little troubled by Josey's
eagerness to go back with the vampire king.

Just a few hours ago, she was ready to kill him and offer me his head. Now, she wanted him out of the
cells and back to his rule.

"Did you guys find it weird that Josey was too happy to go back with Cayden? Is it just me?" I ask and
my mother shrugs.

"I birthed leaders. Let Josey rule as queen and protect the werewolves from a vengeful vampire. If
Josey sticks by him then he won't act out against us." Mother tells me and I shiver just thinking about
her with him.



"I hate to say this but I'd rather have that than what is going on in my head. I feel like I'm going to lose
Josey to that world and we won't be able to bring her back." I say, worry taking over me.

"That's probably just the big sister in you talking. Your little Josey is out in the world alone.." Mother
teases but it was more than that and I knew it.

"I can't tell you how to feel but if you don't feel sure about this then do something about it. You are the
moon goddess, there is nothing you can't do." Hunter says to me and I smile.

I could definitely do something, something that might prove that I was right to be doubtful. I'm just
hoping that Josey proves me wrong.

"Anthony!" I call out. If anyone was to help in this case, it was Anthony.

"You called? And also, can you all stop summoning me like this? I don't do this to any of you." Anthony
says in annoyance.

"I'm sorry. I only do it because father does it." I say and Anthony's eye bulge out.

"You said it! She said it, out loud.” Anthony says and I look at him confused.

I look at Hunter and his face looks happy, like he has just completed the world's hardest obstacle
course and came out victorious. His grin was wide and full, a happy man stood in front of me and then
it dawned on me.

I had just called Hunter what I only call Christopher.

‘About time.’ Athena says in my head.

Oh boy.
