Cursed By The Moonlight - Chapter 69

“You remember? Are you sure?” Zion asked.

Amaris nodded while smiling at him.

He couldn’t believe that she remembered him and he felt so glad that she finally had her memories.

“You named me Candra because I can’t remember who I was before we met. We promised to love each other for eternity. I promised you that I would come back to you even when I die. I remember the flower field where we always chase each other, and when we get exhausted, we’ll sit under the tree to watch the sunset together.” Amaris said.

Zion’s heart was dancing with joy. He pulled her closer, hugging her tightly.

“Oh, my goddess! Thank you for remembering!” Zion whispered while giving her tiny kisses on her face.

“I’m sorry for forgetting you.” She sadly uttered.

Zion cupped her on the face and planted a kiss on her lips.

“Hey, it wasn’t your fault. I’m really happy right now, so let’s not ruin that. You came, and that was the only thing that mattered to me. I love you, Ari!”

Amaris smiled and hugged him back.

“How about the memories when you were on the moon? Do you remember anything?” Zion asked.

She shook her head and sighed.

“No. When I was pulled in there, I asked my old self about my mother’s curse, but she told me to go to Mirrikh. I think that’s the only choice. She said I would find the answers there.” She answered.

Zion nodded in agreement then smiled at him.

“Let’s forget that for now. Come on, let’s take a walk outside. You’ve been in this room for two days now. Maybe we could start looking for your protea?”

“Yes, I would love to do that.”

They went outside to see the Fae Clan Territory and looked for her protrea. Now that Diana’s back, she needed to find the remaining three. Grakar said that the next was probably still living somewhere in the fairy’s land.

Zion was holding her hand and was not letting it go. They asked permission from Elder Halia to look around their territory, and she agreed when they told her about the protrea.

The land wasn’t that big like the werewolves’ ground. According to what she read, the Fae’s domain was the smallest among the territories.

Amaris looked around and saw different types of faes. There were small ones, just like when she transformed into one of them the other day. There were also human-sized fairies living in the territory.

The houses of the fae’s were not Victorian style like the werewolves, and it wasn’t gloomy and dark like the demon clans either. It was a biophilic interior design since it was evident that every home focuses on creating a calming space with a connection to nature.

Amaris saw a little girl struggling to pull something under the ground as they walked around the area. She was curious, so she got closer and crouched down beside her.

“What are you doing?” Amaris asked the little girl.

She was around eleven years old, like Diane, judging from her looks. She had blue hair and silver eyes, a rare combination of her kind. Fae’s usually had golden or black hair and blue eyes, so Amaris was fascinated by her.

The little girl was startled and turned to the woman who looked like a goddess.

“You know you have a resemblance with my goddess.” She said, not answering Amaris’ question.

Zion was just waiting for Amaris. He was looking at his Luna, talking to the little girl with a frown on her face.

“I look like your goddess? Really? Who is she?” Amaris asked, curiosity piqued.

The girl didn’t answer and turned her gaze to the ground again. She started pulling something, and Amaris saw it looked like a long chain.

“Would you like us to help you? Maybe we could pull it out if we do it together?” She asked the little girl again.

The girl nodded, and Amaris was happy that she agreed. She stared at the girl from head to toe.

The girl was wearing a white camisole dress and was barefooted. Her hands were filthy because of the dirt, and Amaris noticed that she already had some wounds on her hands, maybe because she was pulling the chain by herself.

Amaris stood up and looked at Zion, who was confused why she was staring at him.

“Love, can you pull this chain off the ground?” Amaris asked.

Zion’s heart skipped a beat when she called him love. He felt that it was genuine, and he knew that she really remembered him.

He smiled and walked closer to Amaris and the girl. He leaned forward and kissed his Luna on the cheek as if getting some energy from her.

He then grabbed the chain and pulled it. They heard the clanking sound of the chain when it started to come out of the ground. Zion frowned when he noticed that the chain was long, so he pulled it again and this time with so much force.

Then they were surprised to see that by the end of the chain was a rectangular box. It wasn’t big. It could only fit into Amaris’ palm, so they were confused why the chain was heavy.

“Why is the box so heavy?” Zion asked the girl.

“This is a crystallum. It’s heavy because I bound the box with my powers. So no one could find it. This is the key to my goddess’ body.” The girl answered.

Amaris couldn’t understand why she was interested in the girl. There was something in her that she was drawn to that she couldn’t explain.

“Crystallum? A crystal key for a hydria?” Zion asked.

Amaris looked at Zion and then back to the girl, who seemed surprised that he knew something about it.

The girl nodded and stared at Amaris.

“I heard that the Luna of the Blue Moon Pack is here. I wanted to give this to her.” The girl said while showing the crystallum.

“Why would you like to give it to her?” Amaris asked.

“I am a tenere, keeper of the crystallum. I am a servant of my goddess, the child of the moon..” The girl answered while staring at Amaris.
