His Dark Obsession by Moonlight Muse

65. Raziel

ZEDKIEL.

Drystan snickers, and Dad frowns at him before giving Evangeline a nod to continue. I give her hand a squeeze, and she smiles at me before taking a deep breath and carrying on.

“And so, she turned Raziel into the very first werewolf. However, she had promised that her creation would live on earth, and by the command of the Supreme Eternal G*d, she was forced to cast Raziel down to earth. A move that shook Selene, and only then did she realise that her love for Raziel had become more… But, when she made the divine decision to create werewolves, she hadn’t realised that everything comes at a cost… She went to the Supreme G*d asking for Raziel to join her in the heavens, but she was denied her request.”

Evangeline frowns as she continues. “Instead, he gave her permission to create one more being. He granted her the source of life to create a female, to continue the race that she had created by mating her to Raziel… But she could not do it, when she herself loved him and so disobeying the Eternal G*d. She came down to earth, disguising herself, and created the bond between herself and Raziel, who no longer remembered her.

The bond was instant, snapping into place the moment they touched, and they lived on earth for several months in peace, but she knew it wouldn’t last forever. She could not avoid the Eternal G*d learning of her actions, but something she wasn’t expecting happened. She found she was carrying Raziel’s child, and that is something that would not be hidden from the Supreme Eternal G*d. She returned to the heavens, knowing she would have to plead for their lives before him. So, without a word, she left Raziel and returned for her reckoning, and of course, the punishment was far from lenient.

The Eternal G*d revealed that she was not carrying one but two babies, and her punishment? That the moment they were born, he will curse them to a life of doom, and she will never be allowed to see them for going against the commandments of the g*ds. He also promised that he would curse Raziel to a life of eternal imprisonment upon earth.”

I frown. I remember the story vaguely… but it still didn’t make sense why Dad thinks it’s all linked to me. She has everyone’s attention now, and I know she has the interest of the members of the court, too. Seems like I wasn’t the only one who brushed over the facts, not caring about them. I also knew Evangeline had studied this all in depth. I watched her, admiring her confidence as she spoke, drawn into the story herself.
