Chapter 75: Words from a Goddess

Ivy POV

There was once a time in my life when I considered and aspired to be a princess. A single phrase from a child’s book made me feel like anything was possible and that was-Once upon a time.

Who knew those four little words could change so fucking much in my life?

Every young girl dreams of her once upon a time at some point in her life, and when we are young, we never really consider what the complications of our dreams could be. In reality, we aren’t given the choice of where our path is going, but instead, how we handled the shit thrown at us.

Some might say that is predetermination, but for me… I call it a miscalculation.

 

I felt lighter than I ever had before, and when the mist started to clear, I found myself walking from the clouds that surrounded me towards the figure of a woman I had never seen before.

Her golden hair hung around her face in gentle waves while a curious glint held unwavering light in her eyes. “You’re finally here,” she said as if it was the most obvious thing to happen.

“I’m finally where?” I asked with confusion, watching the amusement flow off of her.

“It isn’t about where you are, but where you have been,” she replied, confusing me even more.

I had been a patient person most of my life, and over the course of the last few months. I would like to think I had been a very patient and understanding individual. So for this woman to stand before me speaking riddles-it was fucking annoying

“Do you care to elaborate on whatever it is you’re talking about since I’m dead and need to like voodoo hoodoo or whatever to the great beyond?” I sighed, not wanting to deal with cryptic messages from this woman

“Dead?” Laughter escaped her lips. “You’re not dead. Do you not know who I am?”

“No.” I deadpanned, crossing my arms over my chest. “Am I supposed to?”

A sparkle in her eye caught me off guard as she stepped towards me. Her long white and blue dress flowed behind her like the Greek goddess she seemed to be. There was no telling what would happen to me here, but then again, I have had a lot of peculiar shit happen to me lately.

“I have many names. The wolves, you know, refer to me as the moon goddess. Some even refer to me as Selene, However, the name I preferred for many centuries was the name my husband called me-Frigg

“Frigg as in the Norse goddess, Frigg?”

There was no way that was possible, but her smile told me otherwise

“Ivy, over hundreds of years, people have ordained what they will to find the faith that fits them. The gods and goddesses all have had many names, but there was always one thing that never changed-the love we had for those on earth”

Confusion filled me trying to understand what she meant. If she had loved so many on earth humans and other creatures alike, then why did they not save those who should have been saved?

It didn’t make sense

“I’m sorry I’m just not a religious person-” I replied, giving her an uninterested look “So you will have to forgive me when I ask where the fuck you and the others have been for hundreds of years while those on earth have suffered left and right.”

“Well,” she smiled warmly. “Even though we are what we are, people have to learn to follow their own guidance. It wouldn’t be right of us to tell them what to do How would they grow if we constantly held their hand?”
