Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Chapter 285

Chapter 285

Jonah POV

I chased Kyan, but Kaif took off with him, and I knew why. He wanted to end it before he thought much about it, so he needed to retrieve the dagger. Kyan knew for Mara to live, Kaif must die, and he saw no other way out. His pain crushed me, yet I had wandered from the trail and was now struggling to find my way back. I headed back up the hill with no other choice, knowing it led back to the ruins. I didn't want to wander too far and become lost. When I reached the top, I clutched my knees and tried to catch my breath. Eziah and Marabella stood arguing with Katya, who paid them no mind as she looked at the grimoire she held. Kat's eyes flicked to me before her voice was suddenly in my head. °
"Take Mara," she says, and I swallow, trying to figure out what she was doing here and why she wanted me to take Mara. Kat then tosses the grimoire into the coffin, and I move toward the ruins. Slightly hesitant as I stepped inside the pentagram. The power emanating from the three of them was almost suffocating.

"I can do this, mum. Just listen to me," Eziah pleaded with Kat?

"T am not doubting that, Eziah, but give me the stones," Kat says, holding her hand out. I walk behind Eziah, and Mara and Kat nodded to me. I swallowed, knowing what she was asking, and the moment my arms wrapped around Mara's waist. She screamed and thrashed, twisting in my arms, trying to break free.

"No, no!" Mara screamed. Eziah steps away from Kat shaking his head when her hands clamp on the sides of Eziah's face. "Hand me the stones," her voice soft, yet the command behind them was brutal, and Eziah resisted, trying to fight off her command, but he was no match for his mother.

"Now get out of the ruins," She says just as I pull Mara out. She collapses at my feet, dragging me to the ground with her as I try to hold her up.

"It's okay, sweetie, I'm not going anywhere," Kat tells her, fiddling with the stones and rolling them in her palm.

"You will never know peace. You will be forever cursed,"

"But none of you will. So that is where you are wrong. I made peace with

this; I accept it, so neither of you has tO, it isn’t goodbye I will still get to meet my grandchildren, still be with you while you grow into who you’re supposed to be" Kat tells her.

"But you don't have to do this. We can find another way, once you die you will forever trapped as the Moon Goddess," Marabella sobs, and Kat stares down at the stones.

"This is the only way, you don't have to like it, but you will accept it. You’ ll let me do this for you. And eventually, you'll understand it," Kat tells her and my grip on Mara grew tighter as she cried, Kat would forever be trapped in the Moon Goddess realm once it was her time to pass.

"A mother's love has no bounds and is endless, infinite. Your son will show you that. Kaif has lost enough, and so has Kyan, I want peace, Marabella. And this is how I find it. This is my sacrifice to bear because I won't allow you to pay the price for my mistakes, and Dominic was my mistake; I didn't just take his life. I ruined Kyan's by not bringing him back. I almost ruined yours. I won't make that mistake twice, not when I can fix it," Kat says turning to look at Eziah who just stood there looking defeated, his shoulders dropped and he hung his head.
