My Miracle Luna
Their Gemini Wolves Chapter 53

{Wyatt's P.O.V.}

"YOU WHAT!?" Those of us left behind were completely thrown for a loop. After relocating to the Golden Moon conference room for privacy, Rylee and the others explained what happened to them and why they had completely vanished after that burst of weird light hit us earlier. I looked at Chad, Brent, and Ryker, and we all had the same facial expression-a mixture of pure surprise and disbelief. That is, all of us except for Olivia. She seemed almost envious of William and the girls. Nothing made sense, and Olivia's reaction "So, wait, are you saying that it was the white light that sent you guys to the past?" Chad asked.

was really odd too.

"The light is essentially a portal, but it was Lexie who sent us to the past," William answered. We all stared at Lexie.

"You guys keep saying that it was me, but I don't even remember any of that!" she shouted and crossed her arms.

"Lexie, it's because you don't have control over it yet. The gift you possess is immensely powerful, and must be used wisely," William cautioned her.

"I can't use it wisely if I don't know how to turn it on and off!"

"We can teach you," Olivia reassured her with a smile but before Lexie could even respond, William jumped in.

"Actually, no, we can't," he said ever so seriously. We all turned our gazes to him, and he appeared to be saddened by something.

"William, what do you mean we can't?" Olivia asked, just as confused as the rest of us.

"We can't help her, or with anything else from here on out because we will no longer be here to help." Rylee's eyes nearly jumped out of their sockets. "William, what are you-"

"I'm sorry, child, but I have been summoned. I cannot put it off any longer."

"Summoned by whom?" I asked with equal curiosity.

"The Lunar Kingdom."

"What!?" everyone shouted in unison.

"William, what are you talking about?" Olivia asked. "I haven't been summoned by anyone or anything."

"Why didn't you tell me that you were Miranda's daughter?" he asked out of the blue, ignoring her question altogether.

"Who's Miranda?" Ryker asked. Olivia's eyes went wide, and she bit her bottom lip. She looked around at the rest of us, and we could all tell that she was at a loss for words.

"Are you going to answer them? Or shall I?" William asked her. She stared at him briefly; her eyes began to dart back and forth between everyone, lingering on William before she finally let out a defeated sigh. "Miranda is the Wiccan goddess and... She's my mother."

"What?" Rylee responded.

"When you say she's your mother, as in she's the mother of all witches, or do you mean-" Chad started to question but Olivia cut him off. "I mean she gave birth to me, in the Lunar Kingdom. I'm from the Kingdom, just like Lanie and Lexie!" An eerie silence filled the room, and we all kept looking at one another, completely taken aback by this sudden revelation about Olivia's past.

"Why didn't you ever tell us!?" Rylee questioned whilst standing to her feet and slamming her hands on the table. "Information like that is pretty pertinent to the s**t that we're currently dealing with! When I first introduced you to the girls, you should have said something then!"

"Rylee, we're not permitted to share with anyone except our mates that we're from the Lunar Kingdom," Olivia replied.

"Yet, you still failed to tell me this," William snarked.

"My love, I ... I didn't know how to tell you. After the incident with Lexie and Lanie had come to light, and I saw you were the guard at the Kingdom during that time, I didn't want to bring up bad memories for you."

"I still deserved to know the truth, Olivia. From your mouth, and not from the mouth of the moon goddess!" he snapped back. Olivia lowered her head.

"I don't get it, what does any of this have to do with you having to leave or not being able to help us with anything anymore?" Lanie asked. She took the words right out of everyone's mouths.

"It has been brought to my attention as to why I am the first Primordial, and why I am the only one that was given the gift of immortality," he answered. We waited for him to continue. "I am the Primordial god of the Kingdom." Cue the crickets. I don't think anyone was expecting that.

"Wh... You... WHAT?!" Rylee stumbled over her words.

"Rylee, I am your god, not just your forefather. According to Selene, you were not born of my blood; therefore, you are not my descendent biologically speaking. But, because I am the first Primordial werewolf to ever exist, the powers that be blessed me with all of my powers as well as immortality so that one day I could take my rightful place in the Kingdom to watch over all my children. Just as Selene does for all werewolves."

"I don't understand. We already have the moon goddess. She's the first werewolf to ever exist. But now, suddenly, there's going to be another werewolf god?" Chad asked.

"I will not be the god of all werewolves, Chad. Only those that are of the Duquesne bloodline." All eyes shifted to Rylee as soon as William mentioned her surname. "ME!?" she asked, pointing at herself. William nodded and had the proudest smile on his face.

"Rylee, I always knew that you would be special, but I never knew just how special you were meant to be until Selene told me."

"What do you mean by special? Aren't I already special? You know, being a Primordial and all?"

"Yes, but that's not all. You gave birth to another Primordial. I already told you and Wyatt that you two would bring about some of the most powerful werewolves to ever exist, but I didn't realize that they too would procreate Primordials." "William, what are you trying to tell us?" I asked him, trying to keep up with the information overload he was spewing out.

"Rylee is said to be the mother of all Primordials-present and future." I snapped my head in her direction and saw that her mouth was hanging open; her eyes held nothing but shock. "Sam and any other pups that you two have will also produce Primordials, that is unless I choose otherwise."

"What does that mean?" I asked.

"It means that just as Selene chooses mates for werewolves, she and I will work together to choose mates for each other's children. If she chooses a normal werewolf as a mate for Sam, then I have the final say on whether that mate is worthy to produce one of my kind." "Wait, wait, wait, are you saying that the Luna is some kind of matriarch for Primordials!?" Brent asked.

"Yes, she is," William answered and smiled yet again. "Which is why it will be up to her to help Lexie and Lanie control their powers, as their sister in the mortal realm. But it will also be her duty as the matriarch of our kind to guide her children to control their powers as well." We all nodded our heads, but Rylee was still frozen in her seat, her eyes once again bugging out.

"Dearest, are you okay?" I asked as I gently nudged her. She didn't respond and her eyes tripled in size. "Rylee, what's wrong?" Her eyes were focused on William, and I followed her gaze only to find him smirking at her.

"No," she whispered without ever breaking eye contact with him.

"That's what I was told," he replied.

"But... I... The timing!"

"Don't get mad at me, get mad at her," he said, throwing his hands up in defense.

"What's going on?" I asked, looking between them.

"Rylee's pregnant!" Lanie squealed and started to clap her hands. We all looked at her with wide eyes. "What?"

"How do you know that she's pregnant!?" I asked her, turning my attention to Rylee who seemed mortified at what Lanie revealed.

"Rylee just said so," Lanie answered as if it was obvious.

"Baby, Rylee didn't say anything yet. You just blurted it out," Chad told her.

"What?" Lanie asked in utter shock.

"She didn't say anything. You answered on her behalf, little one," Ryker repeated.

"Lanie, can you read my thoughts!?" Rylee asked.

"No, I can't read your thoughts. I swear you announced you were pregnant!"

"NO, I DIDN'T!"

"I think I know what just happened," William chimed in. He paused a minute and we all gave him the 'keep talking' look. "Lexie's power sends people to the past, at least, those who have unanswered questions about certain events and why they occurred. Lanie's power appears to be Time Skipping."

"TIME SKIPPING!?" everyone exclaimed.

"I don't think anyone noticed but a few moments ago, while I was having my cryptic conversation with Rylee just now, Lanie's eyes became white as snow for about half a second."

"They did!?" Lanie asked.

"Yes, and it appears that you skipped to a scene in the future that had yet to occur. The skip allowed you to see and hear the moment Rylee would announce that she believes she is pregnant to Wyatt when he asked what we were discussing." "Lanie, you can jump to the future!?" Chad asked her. Lanie shrugged her shoulders and gaped back at him.

"Lanie's power is the opposite of Lexie's. Lexie's has to do with the past, and Lanie's has to do with the future. Though, it seems that Lanie's power allows her to skip to the future and right back again."

"But, she was still sitting here when that happened, or if it happened I should say. How could she skip to ten seconds in the future and come back without leaving?" Chad disputed.

"Her subconscious. It's a form of astral projection. Because it was only a few seconds into the future, she didn't have to physically go. If it were further into the future, then her body would leave, as we did when we traveled to the past courtesy of Lexie. However, just as we cannot change the past, we must never know anything about the future. This was a small blip, as one might call it, so there were no repercussions. But, if anyone ever does travel further into the future, or if Lanie ever does, what you see and hear must remain a secret. We cannot risk potentially changing an outcome that could alter everyone's lives."

"But, isn't that the same as me or you having a premonition? Or Leah of Desert Moon having visions of imminent danger?" Rylee asked.

"No, our visions are for us to prepare for an event that will occur within minutes to come, or perhaps a few hours. What Lanie's powers can do is quite literally allow her or someone else to travel to the future where events have already been solidified in time. Lottery winnings, stock market crashes, and situations such as births and marriages. Information that someone can use for all of the wrong reasons and cheat in life. Someone like ..."

"Someone like Eric," Rylee concluded. William just nodded.

"Oh, um, speaking of Eric. Rylee, there's something we need to tell you," Lexie said. "And it has nothing to do with future events, only what happened in the past," she quickly defended when William scowled at her. "What?" Rylee asked.

"When we traveled to the past, we ended up at Halfmoon. We were inside Eric's office," Lanie answered.

"What!?"

"Yeah, and we, uh, we're pretty certain that this was right before he attacked your pack. Marvin was there too."

"MARVIN!?!" everyone exclaimed.

"Uh-huh, and um. We, uh, overheard them talking about Eric planning to attack and kill your dad so he could take your mom from him," Lexie continued.

"We already know that Eric faked a challenge to kill her dad though," I reminded them.

"Right, but that's not what we learned," Lanie responded to me.

"What did you guys learn?" Rylee asked. The expression on the girls' faces told me that they were afraid that the information they had was bad. I gently took Rylee's hand in mine to give her comfort because something told me that she was going to need it. "Will you spit it out already!?" Rylee snapped. The girls jumped a bit before gathering their composure and gulping.

"He, and by he, we mean Eric, he ... poi... soned... your dad," Lexie said very carefully. "What?" Rylee gritted.

"Um, he poisoned him, with something that we can't pronounce," Lanie replied.

"Yeah, he had told Marvin what it was, and even Marvin freaked out and backed away from him. Eric said that the poison could kill a werewolf in a day with just one drop in the bloodstream," Lexie said.

"Uh-huh! And he said that if it was directly injected into the heart, it would kill a wolf instantly. We think that's how he killed your dad!" Lanie answered and quickly backed away to hide behind Chad. I could feel Rylee starting to tremble with pure rage. "Holy f**k! Could this guy be any more deranged!? Faking a challenge was bad enough but he cheated by using poison to gain the upper hand! What a f*****g disgrace!" Chad yelled. I could see the tears in Rylee's eyes threatening to fall, but they weren't tears of sadness, no, these were tears of absolute anger and hatred. Her eyes turned into pools of black obsidian, and I knew that she was on the verge of losing control of her anger.

"William!" I called out to him, and he could see it too. He immediately pushed Rylee onto her back, snarling at her to keep her and Kaleigh at bay, but it seemed that it wasn't working. Rylee's anger was getting the best of her, and she forced William off her. She threw him back so far and so hard that he went straight through the wall. The next thing I knew, she was gone. "f**k!" I shouted and tried to go after her. But with her speed, Rylee could be halfway to China in less than a minute. "William!" I called out to him again. Without even answering, he went after her.

"Where did she go!?" the others ran out and asked as they came up next to me.

"To go kill Eric," I answered.

"Wyatt, we're so sorry, we didn't think ..."

"It's okay, Lanie. Rylee deserved the truth. William will get her to stop, I hope."

"Wyatt, William will more than likely force her to return to Blue Lake. We should go too," Olivia suggested. I nodded my head and took her hand as she teleported us back to the packhouse. I could only hope that he caught her before she made it to Silver Lake to kill Eric in cold blood.
