The Past or the Present?

Twenty-Three...

Selena Colosel

It's been a week since the confrontation between Thaddeus and I. After what he said, I immediately felt guilty about hiding the truth from him. So I did what I had to do, visit one person who knows him best.

"Geneviva,"

The woman with forest green eyes turned to look at me with a smile, "Oh, it's the Luna! Hello, may I help you with something?"

I shook my head, "Then... do you want a check up?"

"No, Gen. I want to talk to you about Thadd." I answered seriously.

The cheerfulness she had on her face awhile ago changed to a grim one. The lightness if the atmosphere became heavy making me feel nervous.

"Okay," she sighed. "I knew you were gonna say that, I was just hoping that I might distract you. Sit here." She pointed to a bed.

"The two of you are mates, but you don't even know the important details of each other." She shakes her head in disbelief.

I sighed, "I know, but how can I share when he's almost pushing me away all the time?"

I want to know every piece of him, every past, dreams and memories he had been hiding inside him. But how can I ask that from him, if he's not yet ready? I can't just suddenly pop the question to him without a reason. I want him to share it with his own will.

"Let's just say, Thaddeus had went through so much that it destroyed a huge part of him. I don't think it was fair for him to go through all of those things. He was obedient, kind... And loving.

"But fate wasn't on his side, when the crown was about to be passed down to his brother a seer crashed the celebration. Everyone was shock, because they only heard about seers through legends told by the elders of the pack. But then it announced-" she was about to say it when she was cut off.

"Who gave you the right to tell her about that?"

The two of us turned to look at the woman who spoke. She's the only girl I saw with that kind of eyes, making me feel weird. She stared at me with so much hatred with her sea-green colored eyes.

Gen glared at her, "Athena, what are you doing here? Did Thaddeus know you're back at here in our territory?"

The girl, Athena raised her left eyebrow, "I don't care what he says Gen. You know I live with my own ways." Then she turned to look at me, "So you are the new Luna?" She asks looking me up and down.

"Athena, don't you dare. Thadd will kill you if you utter a bad thing about her." Geneviva warned.

Athena rolled her eyes, "He shouldn't care, I hate that cousin of ours. Why do you even stay here?"

Gen sighed, "Then why are you here? You keep on saying you hated our cousin but you kept coming back."

"Well... I'm hiding from Sven."

The doctor snapped her eyes towards her, "Sven? The Prince of the Vampires. What have you done?!"

"I did nothing wrong, it's just that he's my mate." Athena answers, while sighing.

I watched the two have a conversation, making me realize that they almost look identical. The difference is, Geneviva has forest green eyes and dark brown hair. While Athena has sea green eyes with jet black hair.

"Gen, how will I apologize towards Thaddeus?" I asked suddenly, stopping the two bickering woman.

She gave me a look, "I don't Sel, but I can assure you that he will always forgive you for whatever you had done."
