Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle by Aurora Starling

Silver's POV

"Silver, my child. Wake up..." I heard a soft and very familiar voice saying.

I moved my head, expecting to feel some sort of pain, but I felt nothing. I felt at ease and even the ache in my chest was gone. When I opened my eyes, I was staring up at the night sky. I was lying on a bed of grass with a ton of wildflowers surrounding me. This was the same spot where I met the moon goddess. My breathing was rapid as memories of what had happened filled my chest and my heart hammered wildly against my rib cage. "Relax, child. You are safe now. There is no danger here," the woman said in such a musical tone that I immediately found myself calming. "Sit up."

She didn't speak it like a command, but my body immediately responded to her words, and I found myself sitting up. Getting a better view of my surroundings, I saw that it was still nighttime, and I could hear the distant creek, the sounds of the crickets, and the owls in the trees. It was peaceful here and I found myself feeling safe. It was a feeling hadn't felt in a while and I immediately welcomed it.

"There you go," the woman said.

I blinked a few times and turned my head at the sound of her voice. For a second, I thought she was speaking to me through the wind because there was nobody there. But then she walked through the darkness and the glow of her aura along with her white dress, shined through, connecting to the moon rays as if they were one and the same. It was like she was part of the moon.

I smiled at her.

"Moon Goddess," I whispered in greeting.

She nodded and stood in front of me.

"You have done so well, my child. I'm unbelievably proud of you. You defeated the evil and saved the world from itself."

I thought back to what had happened and then a heavy feeling sat on my chest. I thought about Elliot and how he was lying lifeless on the ground and how I begged him not to leave me. He was hurt... he was dying.

I gasped and I looked at the Goddess with tears filling my eyes.

"Elliot..." I whispered. "He's...."
