Chapter 36
Kavi's POV
"The history what you were taught was wrong. The real war happened between Chandran, the Moon
God and Layla, the Goddess of Darkness and it is you who was born as Kavithanjali now!"
He said with a distanced look. I started laughing hard ignoring the amused look of Maayan and
annoyed look of Akhilan.
"I understand we might be married which would make me your wife, but Goddess... me... really? Stop
joking around. Then how Goddess of darkness, who is a threat for Moon was born under the species
he created?"
I asked him in between my fits of laughter.
"That's called Destiny, Cupcake!"
He replied calmly in adoring tone. I stopped laughing and looked at him. Was he serious?
"How is it possible? If she was Goddess of darkness, why her powers were taken away from her and
how could she regain them."
Akhilan asked Maayan.
"It was a big story. And her powers were cursed upon me. But I can't use them. I am just a medium to
hold her powers and guard it until she gets back to me. We need to go to the place where it all
happened to find a way to transfer the powers back to you. But that place might not be left unguarded
that too after my release. So we need to be careful even though you are a good fighter. And we need
help from our people."
He paused and walked near me. I couldn't properly think about what he said. I curled my toes as his
scent was making my senses go insane. He smirked knowing his effect on me and looked at Akhilan
with the same smirk.
"I can't risk my mate's life. Don't drag her into danger!"
Akhilan and his wolf growled.
"I failed once. But I will not let her die this time. If I didn't give back power to her, that bastard will easily
take her life again. He may not enter this realm alone but if Sun decided to join him, then Chandran can
break the shield of this realm so easily and that's why she needs her power back."
His aura was so dark. His emotions were so raw. I touched Maayan's shoulder to calm him down. I
never knew the feel of touching him would overwhelm me. I could understand that it was because of
my last life. Because every nerve ending in my body recognised him. Unlike tingles, this was something
different. More magical!
Akhilan's wolf calmed when Maayan mentioned about my death.
"He can't enter this realm now, Cupcake. And this place was lifeless without you. Now you are here, let
our realm know you are back. Just get down."
I looked at him strangely. Would something really happen?
"Just think you are coming down in air slowly."
He instructed me and demonstrated me by landing gracefully before the humongous doors of the
Castle. I looked at Akhilan and he was already lowering to the sand surface. I took in a deep breath
and instructed myself I'm lowering and I came down just like they did. When my bare foot touched the
sand of this place, like magic the Castle gained back its shining and the purple grass started coming
out below my foot and sprouts came out and turned into trees. The place now smells so good and the
row of similar purple tree wants me to go to look at the pond I seen in the vision. I walked that way and
found a familiar pond with black lotus and the silver swing near a purple tree. I admired the black and
dark purple lotuses in awe as they don't exist in the earth. Akhilan was too looking at the Castle and
surrounding in amazement.
So this Goddess thing was true. Why did I fight with Chandran? I should ask Maayan about it. But my
mind was distracted when a fully bloomed lotus raised in the air and floated its way towards me.
Was it happening on its own?
I extended my hand to get it and inhaled its divine smell. I blushed at the memory of the vision I had
and bit my lips to stop myself from blushing more and raised my eyes at the person responsible for it.
His eyes filled in love and he walked to me.
"This pond is our favourite spot and you love these beautiful flowers. And whenever I give these
flowers to you, I will be rewarded with..."
Maayan paused trailing off his sentence and looked at me with a naughty smile. I was blushing hard
knowing very well what he meant. I even felt my lips tingling just at the thought of kissing him. He ran
his tongue over his lower lips so slowly in a teasing manner and smirked at me. Damn him! He knew Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
his effect on me and playing with that. I love the way he was teasing me but couldn't enjoy it fully
because my closeness with one person will affect the other one.
"Are these flowers magical? How did it come to me?"
I asked him purposely to divert the topic.
"Sorry! I just forgot your memories weren't with you. You just look the same to me! I am a wizard, the
first human born with magic which made me the strongest and powerful wizard in the world. The
wizards and witches living in this era weren't aware of what the real magic is. They only knew ten per
cent of what I knew. That's how I managed to contact you during your birthday in the dream world."
I looked at him with wide eyes. He is a fucking powerful wizard!
He knew all about me but I don't know anything about him. This is not fair!
"Can you tell me about our past first?"
I asked Maayan curiously.
"I don't want to narrate it now, Cupcake. You will remember it when you get your powers back. We can
go there after making the necessary arrangements. I am not perfect but all I want is your trust."
He started with a painful and distanced look making my heart clench but he covered it quickly and
smiled at me lovingly.
It was so confusing as I was feeling the same way for both of these males who claiming me theirs. I
can't differentiate them. I love Akhilan very much but there is no doubt my heart has the love for
Maayan equally.
I looked behind him and found Akhilan leaning on a tree and having a distanced look. He had let his
mind open and I saw him worrying about being against Moon God and his wolf was annoyed with
Maayan. I sent him the memories of us making out near the Waterfall outside our territory and I heard a
loud growl. I smirked happily when he made his way towards me. I caressed the silky petals of the lotus
and asked Maayan that I want to go inside the castle. Akhilan's darkened eyes glared at me playfully
for arousing him.
We walked back and I looked at the massive gates shining in silver looking very heavy and terrific with
the carvings of a big snake spread across each side. The knob-like setting was the head of the big
snakes. I extended my hand and caressed its head and the snake moved startling me. It wasn't a real
one but seems like the magic in this place made it move. I moved backwards at the unexpected
movement. I heard Maayan's manly laughter and he patted my head which I didn't like a bit. I glared at
him and looked at the wide-opened door.
"A very few only have the magic in their hands to open it. And you always have that because this place
is yours. The right side was covered with water and ice and the left side has volcano and fire pits and
the castle in the centre. That's the way you created this realm. And you have set the lighting of this
realm closely related to the earth. You have a great attachment to that planet. That's why you set this
invisible realm in the void place near the earth."
Maayan stated and walked inside extending his hand to follow him.
I could feel home when I stepped inside and the safe and contented feel was spreading over my heart
more than what I felt the day we came back to Green Ocean Pack. I touched over my heart trying to
understand the feelings I was getting. I was startled by a group of fully armed tall people running
through the inner door and they extended their spears and swords in Maayan's direction who stood
before me hiding me from those people.
Akhilan instantly pushed me behind him and growled at them louder. I don't feel fear in my nerve but I
was curious. A tall well-built figure walked in an authoritative stance and frozen on seeing Maayan and
then his eyes met mine. He quickened his pace making Akhilan let out another warning growl. But he
knelt before me with his sword on his hand and bowed his head down muttering 'Goddess'. The
warriors around me looked puzzled but their gaze fell on me and they were on their knees in an
instance. Who are these people? What are they doing inside the Castle?
"Even though you have vanished from the surface of this solar system, no one can reach your place all
these years. That gave trust to our people that you would one day come back. And their faith didn't go
waste. You are here."
Maayan said to me. Can he read my mind? I frowned and looked at him.
"I can't read your mind but I knew what you would be thinking."
He replied on looking at my frown. Wow! He was reading me like an open book. My curiosity to know
the love story of Layla and Maayan was increasing within me. But I knew I have to wait to know about
it. He walked near the man who was still kneeling in front of us.
"It's been a while Aadhira! How are you? You may rise now."
Maayan spoke to him Err... her in a very friendly manner. Aadhira? So it was actually a woman!
"You may have the power of our Goddess within you. But I don't respect traitors. Go away before I slice
you into two pieces."
She warned him in a venomous tone. A growl erupted from me and I moved towards her. My wolf too
didn't like her tone.
"Don't disrespect him. He is the reason why I am here now. I don't know about the past. But my heart
tells he will not even think of any harm to me. Do you understand?"
My Alpha tone came out automatically and she cowered further in her position as well as the other
warriors behind her. I felt comforting hold on my both shoulders where one side I felt tingles and other
side send a sweet shiver through my body. My mind calmed instantly.
"Get up!"
I said to them.
That woman, Aadhira removed her head armour. She looked around my age but her face held maturity
and her eyes were void of any emotions.
"Its good to have you back here, Goddess. The place got back its life with your return. Our people will
surely want to celebrate your return..."
Maayan interrupted her.
"This is not the time for celebrating her return. Chandran was waiting for an opportunity for her fall. We
need to prepare to go to the place where everything happened to find a way to return her powers. She
was born as a werewolf now. Chandran has an advantage over a part of her. So we need to prepare
accordingly."
She looked conflicted but looked at me. Something crossed her eyes and she signalled the warriors to
take back their position and gave Maayan a nod.
"Please come inside, Goddess."
She told and started walking inside. The Castle has the look of historical touch but everything was
completely modernised inside. I imagined that the realm of darkness would be covered in darkness but
this place was beyond my imagination. We made our way inside with comfortable silence. I started
feeling tired with all the dramas happened in past hours and yawns came out of my mouth
continuously. My stomach growled out loud making me awkwardly scratched my head. It's almost
dinner time and we two didn't eat anything all day.
Maayan gave me a smile and told Aadhira to take us to the dining area first. She glared at him but
complied anyway. I saw a few people were there. They had the look of recognition and gasped loudly.
Soon they started bowing their heads. I awkwardly looked around and nodded my head at them.
Aadhira wisely sends everyone out to keep me in a comfort zone. It seems I had two people under me
to manage the chores back then but one had died trying saving me and Aadhira was the one who had
managed the things all these years and been waiting for my return. She didn't speak much. But I could
feel the dedication and respect she has for me from her aura.
We finished our food and Aadhira showed me a big room telling it was mine. I slightly felt lightheaded
on entering the room. I guess again some visions had flashed in my brain which I couldn't recollect
properly. Akhilan was deep in thoughts and wasn't talking to me properly. He was afraid that I would
leave him for Maayan. But I can't leave him for anyone. He took the room next to mine saying that he
needs some time to think. Maayan went to talk with Aadhira about the plan for our trip. I can't help a
pang of jealousy engulfing my heart knowing he was talking to another female. After a few minutes, he
came back to talk to me. He looked at me with admiring eyes and shook his head with a ghosty smile.
He traced the curtains and went near the bed and ran his hand over there.
"In all these millennia, the past nineteen years were best to see you grow up from a baby. This room
had changed. But I couldn't erase the memories. When I was trapped inside that place all these years,
I could see what happens in the planets because of your power in me like a side effect. And my wizard
powers only made me enter the dream world after all these years of practice. I know you have no idea
about your powers. Remember, you are the strongest soul in this Milkyway. That's one of the reasons
why you have born again to resume your duties. I will surely do anything to keep you happy and safe,
Cupcake. Trust me."
Maayan spoke too emotionally and came near me. I sat still on the sofa contemplating his words. He
sat next to me and took my hand in his. A wave of goosebump washed over my skin and I looked at
him expectantly.
"Unlike Chandran had thought, our love story didn't end there. I had committed a great mistake back
then. I let you down. And I am very sorry about that. But always remember one thing, You are the only
person I love the most and will always love more than anything in this universe. I love you, Cupcake."
He bent down and kissed my forehead and walked out of the room leaving me all alone. I don't have
any idea about the past he spoke. But I can feel his love for me. And it was pure. From the talk of
Aadhira and his apology, I could tell there was a great misunderstanding happened and I need to clarify
it.

I opened my eyes slowly and looked at the high ceiling with a huge golden viper. I feel very cold like my
body was placed inside a freezer. I raised my head and looked around to find the room empty and the
silky bedsheet was curled near my ankles. I must have kicked them in my sleep. I picked the sheets
and covered myself cosily with them. I studied the details of the royal room with expensive antiques
and creative designs. Everything is magnificent here.
My mind was like fifty per cent believing everything but the other half was still thinking that I was
hallucinating all these things. Before 24 hours, I have no idea my life is going to take this huge turn. It
was so fascinating and funny at the same time. My wolf was calm. She had accepted everything easily
and the only thing I couldn't understand is how she was comfortable with Maayan when our mate was
here. But she was so shaken when Chandran tried to separate her from me. And I mentally promised
her that I won't let him take her away from me.
I heard a knock at the door and called out the person to come in. Aadhira came in wearing the
expression of respect. I smiled at her sleepily and saw her froze for a second before regaining her
formal composure.
"Our people were waiting for you in the Throne Hall. They were so excited to see you again. It's better if
you meet them soon. I will help you to get ready, Goddess."
I looked at her with wide eyes.
"Can't it wait till I get my memories back? I have no memories of what happened in my past. I don't
even have the powers. Won't they get disappointed to see me like this?"
I asked her not knowing how to face them. She nodded her head 'No'.
"Yes, Cupcake. You have to meet people. They have been waiting for a while to see you. And that will
give them hope and determination for the wars we might need to face in future."
I looked at him with a frown. Wars? Going against Moon God means I have to stand opposite to my
family in war? How can I?
"Don't overthink, cupcake. Get ready to meet our people. We will talk about it later."
I sighed and nodded my head. I need to think clearly. I know death is inevitable. But I don't want
anyone to lose their lives in this name of war between two Gods!
