Chapter 0712

"Holy crap," Tony murmurs, running a shocked hand through his hair. "What the hell did she get herself into?"

The Goddess laughs, a light and tinkling sound. "Oh, Ariel's getting all the attention right now, but my Juniper..." she sighs, shaking her head and looking into the distance almost as if she's proud. "Wait until the universe sees what she's about to stir up." "Oh god," Tony sighs, dry.

"So, will you help?" the Goddess asks, cheerful and hopeful, turning her eyes back to him.

"Do I get to be alive again?" he asks, gesturing down at himself.

"Nope," she says, shaking her head. "You'll be a ghost. But..." she purses her lips and then snaps her fingers.

Tony's wolf poofs away to stardust, which drifts towards Tony's chest and comes to settle there, warm and shimmering. Tony groans as he feels it, his wolf returned to him, where he always was. The relief is immense.

"Thank you," Tony murmurs, pressing a hand to his heart, his wolf howling happily inside, pleased to be returned where he belongs.

"I'm sorry it cannot be more," the Goddess says, considering him sadly. "You are a ghost, but you're blessed now. I'll send you to Juniper to be her handmaid."

"Her...her what?" Tony asks.
