Fated To The Cursed Werewolf King

A few hours later, the guards dragged Hazel out of her room.

After receiving Janet’s message, You are dead, Hazel, she knew there was no way she could escape what was waiting for her. So, she simply kept quiet and allowed the guards to pull her through the long hallway.

Soon, the huge throne hall appeared before them and doors opened. Hazel was dragged inside. The moment they released her, she fell onto the cold floor. She looked back at the guards, carefully memorized their faces, and gave a small nod. ’ Your faces will forever be in my brain!’

Caius sat on his high throne and stared down at her with anger in his eyes. ”Why did you refuse to follow us?” he asked in a cold voice.

Hazel did not bother to stand up. She simply looked up at her extremely good-looking mate and let out a soft sigh. ”I heard my soul is still tinted,” she said calmly. ”I’m afraid I won’t be able to see what you want.”

Caius’s frown deepened. ”Who are you to decide for me?”

Hazel looked at him in disbelief. So she did not even have the right to decide about her own body? When did he become the owner of her life?

”Wow,” she whispered.

” Wow?” Caius’s face became even colder. He clenched his fists. No one had ever dared to disobey him like this before. ”You will be punished,” he said slowly. ”So that something like this will never happen again.”

Hazel swallowed hard. The words made her remember what had happened the night before, right after Janet had delivered the message about the journey to the Witch City.

...

Hazel sat in front of her dressing table with an annoyed expression.

She still hated the fact that Caius did not even seem to care about her bringing him back. And as for him rejecting her... She looked at her beautiful face in the mirror and sighed.

Different high-ranking wolves’ sons used to fight each other just to get close to her. She had always been considered beautiful. Hazel raised her hand and touched her cheek.

What?” She stared at the mirror in confusion. Her reflection was still smiling. Then its eyes began to glow white. Hazel jumped back. ”What on earth is this?”

A large silver moon symbol suddenly appeared on her forehead. Hazel gasped. She had heard about this before.

Her legs almost became weak. She quickly stood straight. Her hands moved to her abdomen. Then she bowed deeply.”Moon goddess.”

Her reflection chuckled softly. ”Ahh, gosh. I thought I was about to scare my granddaughter.”

Hazel blinked in shock. Granddaughter? ”I... I don’t think I’m worthy...”

”Aiisshh... You have already experienced how stubborn he is. His temper keeps getting worse. Take a seat, Hazel and let’s talk”

Hazel slowly raised her head and sat back down on the chair. She could not believe she was actually facing the Moon goddess herself. She had heard that even the High Priest needed great effort to summon her. The goddess could not be called randomly. She could possess any body she wanted like adult, child, young, or old or speak through the moon and nature. Coming to Hazel’s personal mirror meant there was a serious reason.

Of course. The Moon goddess had raised Caius from the time he was a baby. She was like a godmother or stepmother to him. It was normal for her to take responsibility for him.

Hazel bowed respectfully toward the glass again. ”goddess...”

The Moon goddess smiled and sighed. ”Such a sweet girl. I chose you as my son’s mate because you are very special. I have liked you ever since you were still in your mother’s womb.” She chuckled. ”I’m sure you still don’t understand how you suddenly found yourself among the high-rank wolves.”

Hazel sighed. For the first time, someone truly understood what she had been thinking. Well, this was the Moon goddess. She knew everything.

”I’ve been wondering about that too... and I’m very grateful that you made me special.”

The Moon goddess smiled faintly. ”Do you want me to tell you something interesting about your future?”

Hazel swallowed and nodded happily. She had always wanted to know. Since she could not see her own future, she was dying to hear it.

”I will be very glad.”

The Moon goddess gave her a meaningful look. ”You will be sitting in a massive chamber, on a big bed, with his head resting on your lap.”

Hazel froze. ”Ahhh...” She did not know if she could believe it or not.

”Of course you should believe me,” the Moon Goddess chuckled. ”And you will be running your hand through his hair... because it is your favorite.”

Hazel’s face turned bright red. It was true. She had fallen for his long white hair even before his face stole her attention. What was she even thinking?!

She quickly looked at the mirror again. The Moon goddess was giving her a teasing smile.

”I... don’t think that will happen,” Hazel said softly. ”He doesn’t even want me.” She could not wait for the goddess to reject the idea. With the way things were going, she planned to leave the moment she finished seeing whatever Caius wanted her to see.

”It will happen, Hazel,” the Moon goddess said firmly. ”You are the only one who is suitable for him. Your mate bond is not fully bothering both of you yet because of your tinted soul.”

Hazel swallowed and quickly pressed her hands together in a pleading gesture.

”Please... can you rewrite my fate and give me another mate?” she asked pitifully. ”I don’t mind a random wolf. I just want someone who will love me... that’s all.”

The Moon goddess looked at her with gentle but serious eyes. ” Caius is the only person who can love you more than you want, Hazel.”

Hearing those words, Hazel choked immediately and started coughing in embarrassment. That statement is too good to come true.
