Is a mistake from the Moon Goddess 218

Chapter 218
We made it to their sides, and | realized in the dim glow of the Moon Goddess that Nix had grown thin, and
Megan's fur was patchy. "What is wrong with them?"
"I don't know. But they are not healthy." The goddess let go of my side and crouched down, stroking my wolves,
shaking them from their slumber. "Why are you down here, little ones?" The goddess stroked their faces, lifting
their heads as they struggled to wake.
Megan was the first to realize they weren't alone. "Moon Goddess?" Megan struggled to stand on her shaky legs.
"Why are v
here?"
"We were wondering the same." The goddess shifted, and Megan's eyes met mine. | watched her widen and then
fill with shame.
"Amy..." she started. "Why are you here?" Her voice was thick with spent up emotion.

"Why am | here?" | had to give a tiny, sad laugh. "Why are you two? Do you know how long I've been looking for
you? How long you leftalone?"
"Amy...I-"
I held up my hand. "I don't want to hear any excuses, Megan." | got to my knees and | realized | was angry.
Angier than | ha ever been at my two wolves.
The goddess grabbed my hand and shook her head. "This is not the tto be angry. We have to figure out what
is wrong with your wolves." She turned back to Megan. "You can stop guarding her now, young one. I'm here to
help."
"I didn't know what else to do." Megan sat down with a heavy sigh, like standing for even a moment was difficult.
| reached out to Megan, because even though | was mad at them both, | was worried. "What's wrong with you?"
She collapsed sideways into my arms and sighed.
"I'm so tired." She whispered. "But | couldn't leave her."
| looked over to Nix, who still hadn't moved from where she lay. The goddess looked atand gavea small
smile. "This might hurt a bit."
"What?" The light exploded from her. My chest felt like it was on fire as the darkness was banished by the blazing
light from the goddess. | squinted as | reared back and waited for my eyes to adjust. The dark black room was
gone and somehow we were now in this bright white room. Light cfrom every surface, leavingreeling.
My chest tightened with every breath. "What's going on? Why does it hurt?"
"I'm sorry but | needed to see her fully to understand. The pain you're feeling is because we are in the deepest
recesses of your mind. A place made for your darkest truths to stay hidden, and right this second, I'm using my
power to illuminate everything. You soul is feeling exposed pained, and unsafe. But | promise once we leave, the
pain will dissipate." | just nodded, wiping away tears that had started to free fall. "You are feeling sad and
vulnerable. But she needs us."
We turned back to Nix, and finally we could see the damage. She was thin, terrifying, so | could see each rib
through her fur. Her fur its self was falling out, dull and lifeless. The moon on her forehead was nearly faded, and
her breathing was ragged. "What's wrong with her?"
"She is being attacked." The moon goddess leaned over my wolf and whispered.
Megan looked up at me, and | could hear the emotion. "She commandednot to tell you. That you were
dealing with too much and she could handle it. But then she just collapsed. And | couldn't leave her."

"How long has she been like this?"
"Months." Megan's whisper was devastated. "I was feeding her my strength to keep her alive, but | had little left.
That's why you struggled with shifting." | felt her tear trail over my legs. "I'm sorry."

"Why didn't you askfor help?" | ran my finger through her patchy coat. "I would have csooner."
"You know she thought of that, too." She huffed out a shaky breath. "Nix thought that since we were helping with
your magic, we could fight it."
"Magic?"
The goddess looked up and nodded. "You have been under attack for months, and because of her foolish need to
handle it herself, they almost killed all three of you."
| felt my mind race. If it was magic, | should be able to fight it. "I just need to know what spell it is." | closed my
eyes and mentally flip through my Book of Shadows.
"You don't have to. | know what it is." The goddess whispered, "Who ever is attacking you was trying to remove
your connection to me."
"Okay."
"But they didn't know that to do that, you would have to die. You were born from my flesh, my blood, my power,
and my blessings. You could never be severed from me."
"How do | stop it?"
"Follow the power back, and shatter the spell at the root, before it kills you."
