Chapter 19: God and Goddess

In God's realm, a lady in white with a golden crown in her head watches over everything that's happening in the human world. She is very happy. At least, she has found the perfect mated couple to be the moon god and goddess. It's been 800 years since she began ruling the supernatural world alone because of her mate's betrayal. She once thought about giving the title to another couple, but then the girl married a human, so she had to wait for a long time for the perfect couple.

Now, she's found one. Hagon has proved himself by waiting for his mate for a painfully long time. Even after he thought Carol died, he didn't look for another mate. He was even ready to join her in the afterlife. His love for his mate has proved that he would look after her and remain loyal to her. He has also proved himself to be a great King. He provides for the poor, is hard on traitors, avoids wars, and tries to keep the world in peace so that the innocent won't suffer.

Even though Carol is human, she maintains a positive attitude. Through all of her troubles, she has stayed strong and overcome everything all on her own. Even without the mate bond, she has loved him since she first met him. She almost sacrificed herself to save him. She is kind and helpful to others without expecting anything in return, and she is loyal to her friends. She has proved herself to be the best person to become the moon goddess.

Even still, the two have to undergo some more tests. If they succeed, they will become the moon god and goddess.

The current moon goddess's mate was punished for his arrogance and betrayal. Because he later changed to become a good person, he was brought to God's realm. However, the moon goddess was not ready to forgive him initially. It took 800 years, but now, she is ready to forgive and reconcile with him.

First, she has to meet him. If all goes well, they will take care of all the supernatural people together in the remaining years of their time here.

…

Back in the real world at Hagon's house, Hagon doesn't know what to say to Carol and the others. He doesn't want to risk her safety, but he needs everybody's opinions on how to handle the matter. Carol is new to the supernatural world, so he also doesn't know how she's going to take the news. People may think that her transformation isn't a big deal, but a white wolf is one. White wolves are legendary. Nobody here has seen one before. The last white wolf appeared 800 years ago, and she was locked inside a room until she died, so it's been more than 1000 years since anybody has seen one. They've only read about white wolves in history books written a long time ago, so a lot of things are unknown, and Hagon has to be careful when sharing the news.

Right now, everybody is looking at the gifts he and Carol brought back. Carol is currently playing with Zane, talking about many nonsensical things.

Hagon clears his throat. "I need to make an important announcement," he starts. "So…Carol shifted into her wolf ten days ago." Carol nods her head quickly, confirming his words, and everybody congratulates her for her first shift. They all ask her to show them her wolf, and Carol is more than happy to do so. She hands Zane over to Stella and goes into the nearest room to shift. Hagon tries to stop her, but no one listens to him. They block his path to her so that she can shift without any obstacles.

"Listen," Hagon tries to explain, using his Alpha voice to make them listen. All of them look at him, a little scared, but before he can continue, Carol comes out of the room to show her wolf to the whole family.

They gasp when they see her, shocked that she is a white wolf.

"You go and shift back now!" Hagon yells at Carol. This is the first time he has yelled at her since he realized she is his mate, and she immediately leaves to shift back, tears filling her eyes. She comes back in human form to find everybody just standing there, the room so silent that you could hear a pin drop.

"This is what I was trying to explain. Since you have seen it for yourself, what do you all think?" Hagon asks, still not softening his tone.

"We were just so happy and excited that Carol had her first shift…sorry we didn't notice how worried you were," Sofia says, which makes Hagon soften a little.

"Brother, don't worry. We are here. We will take care of everything. We will protect Carol with our life," Oliver says, clapping Hagon on the shoulder.

Carol doesn't understand what's going on, but she can understand they are all talking about her. What is the problem with her wolf? Why does she need protection? "Why do you have to protect me? I am fine. Is there a problem with my wolf?" she asks them, terrified and shivering with fear.

Rachel hugs and comforts her. "Nothing is wrong with your wolf. She is beautiful and…rare. White wolves are the rarest and most precious of all wolves to us. Anyways, it's our duty to protect our Queen," she says, trying to lighten her friend's mood.

"During the coronation, she has to show her wolf. And what about her powers? What will we do about that?" Arlo suddenly asks, not reading the room very well.

"What powers? Do I have powers?" Carol asks, confused. She starts breathing quickly.

"I will take care of her fur color. I'll change it. But as for her powers, we have to contact my grandmother. She can help us," Rachel says.

Hagon takes Carol from Rachel's hold and tries to relax her, but she is overwhelmed by all the news she has just heard. He starts saying, "It's nothing. We will take care of everything" over and over again.

"I am going to bed. I need rest." With that said, Carol starts walking towards her and Hagon's room, but as soon as she takes two steps, she faints and falls down. Since Hagon is nearby, he manages to catch her and take her to the hospital as fast as he can. All of his family members follow them to the hospital, and after a long checkup that takes an hour, the doctor comes out of the room.

"Nothing to worry about, Mr. King. Mrs. King is perfectly alright. She is anemic, which is why she fainted. And, Mr. King, congratulations. You are going to be a father. Your wife is three weeks pregnant. It's too early for an ultrasound, but we can schedule another checkup for that. I'll give you some folic acid and vitamin tablets. Please make sure that she takes them regularly. She can be discharged this evening after she wakes up, he says.

"What?" everybody shouts together.

Hagon's face is red as a strawberry, and he has a smile on his face that shows how happy he is.

"Brother, you couldn't wait any longer?" Oliver teases.

"I even waited seven years to get your sister pregnant. How can you do this to my new sister?" Ezra fake cries.

Everybody joins in on teasing Hagon in different ways.

Meanwhile, Sofia is overwhelmed by the situation. Two months ago, she thought there was no future for his eldest son. But now, he is married and expanding his family.

However, the situation is still grave. Carol's pregnancy is now one more thing to head from the enemy. Rachel, Stella, and Mia promise to always be with Carol for her safety. Jake Miller, the head Gamma, and his wife Leah Miller will always be guarding her. Leah is also a warrior.

After forming the protection committee, Hagon goes inside her room to see her, but she is still sleeping, so Hagon carefully sits on the corner of the bed, not wanting to hurt her. Then, he starts stroking her hair lovingly. "I will always protect you and our baby with my life," he says softly.

"Our baby…?" a familiar voice is heard. That's when Hagon notices that Carol is actually wide awake. He was thinking so deeply that he didn't notice her waking up until she spoke up.

"Yes, our baby," he says, smiling like a maniac.

She nods her head, but she starts crying. "I've always wanted a baby," she says in between tears and laughter.

What will happen next? What problems will Hagon and Carol face?
