I would give up my powers for my mates in a heartbeat, but there’s something that causes a twinge of sadness. “What would happen to Star?”
She’s literally made up of my magic. If I have no magic, then Star would cease to exist. She’s not just a magical being though, she’s my wolf, my confidant, and constant companion. Could I live without her?
The goddess hums and smiles softly, looking down at the wolf of stars sitting at my feet. “Star is a part of you. Without your magic, she would simply become a normal wolf.”
Releasing a shaky breath, I look down at the wolf in question, rubbing her ears as I ponder everything I just learned. It’s a lot to digest, but there’s only one choice for me to make.
The goddess watches me closely through all of this, and when she smiles at me, there’s a tinge of sadness there as though she already knows what I’ve decided. “Have you made your decision?” she asks, the words strangely formal.
Looking over my shoulder at Nicolai, I reach for my bonds, smiling as they react to my touch. My mates need me as much as I need them. Turning back to the goddess, I return her smile and firmly nod my head.
“I’ve made my choice.”
Epilogue
The goddess stares down at the woman who once could have been her equal.
She likes to check in on Laelia and see how she is getting on with her mates and adapting to her life without her powers. She knows it’s been a struggle, and many challenges have presented themselves, but with her mates and newly formed pack, they have conquered them all. In the last year, Laelia was finally able to move to the forest she loved so much, the hybrid city of werewolves and witches functioning without her help.
The goddess smiles at the happiness radiating from the young woman, her stomach swollen with child as she’s surrounded by her loving mates.
Although she chose to give up her powers, the goddess can’t help but think the young woman made the right choice.
