Filed to story: Rylee the Orphan Luna Novel
“You’re right, it is unfair, but life isn’t fair. I don’t know how far your memories go back, but if you know anything about being Rylee, then you would know that she has had a hard life compared to most people out there. She lost her parents, her pack, her childhood, and at one point she even lost me,” she lowered her head, and I could see the tears falling like a waterfall. I went up to her and hugged her. “I’m sorry that my poor choices as an Alpha are going to cost you pain, but I want you to know that even though you’re a clone, I love you, and it’s because you were made from the woman that I love with every fiber of my being. I wish there were another way, but there isn’t. You can’t stay, but I promise, that everything you did while you were alive will always be remembered, by me, by Rylee, and everyone in the pack. I mean everyone,” she lifted her head and looked at me. “I’m going to tell the entire pack the truth. Everything I’ve said to you here today will be reiterated to the entire pack. I may even be judged by the Elders for what I did, but I don’t regret it, not for a second,”
“Why?”
“Because creating you allowed Megan and me to realize that Rylee is the true Luna of this pack. Not Megan. Even though I’ve marked her, as soon as she turns back into herself, into Rylee, her original mark will come back with her. You will live on because you were the reminder that we needed. I regret that my choices are hurting you, because even though you’re a clone, you’re still a living being, and you are my dearest, Rylee. But I promise, from the bottom of my heart, you, will not be forgotten,” “Promise?”
“I promise,” I kissed away her tears and gave her a passion-filled kiss. The kind of kiss that only a true mate can give to the woman he loves.
Once things were settled, I called Svetlana into my office, and she performed whatever ritual she needed to. As much as I didn’t want to watch it, I had to for Rylee’s sake. I was selfish one too many times in all of this, and I refused to be any more selfish by walking away when it was time to say goodbye to her.
***Megan’s P.O.V.***
After we got back to the packhouse from Romania, my clone was upset to the point where she wanted to speak to Wyatt alone, so I let her. I had more important issues to deal with, and that was trying to find a way to save Dianna’s life.
I went straight to the pack hospital and found Olivia had some kind of magical shield around her keeping her from turning to ash, but it was only helping so much. I could see parts of Dianna slowly fading away. But, what caught me off guard was the fact that Victor was in the hospital room with her.
“What the? Victor? What are you doing here?” I asked as I came into the room.
“Megan, Victor is Dianna’s mate,” Olivia said to me
“WHAT!?!” I exclaimed looking back at Victor. He had been with us for almost a year and has done so much for the pack. Being human, he could only do so much, but he was a great fighter and helped out around the packhouse even though he had moved into his cottage within the territory with his friends. I never thought in a million years that Victor would be mated to a vampire, let alone a vampire that looked like me.
“Megan, I’m trying really hard not to lose my mind right now,” Victor said to me.
“What happened while we were gone?” I asked.
“After we were told that we could come out of hiding, Kelsey, the others, and I went around seeing what we could help with, but that’s when Dianna here and I met. She immediately came onto me, and I freaked out because I thought she was you,” “Oh…” “Yeah, so imagine my surprise when tells me her name is Dianna and that she’s vampire,”
“Victor, I…”
“You don’t have to apologize. I’ve lived amongst the supernatural long enough to know s**t happens for a reason and that things can easily be explained but not easily believed,” I bit my bottom lip. “Just please, tell me you can save her,”
“I’m going to try, but I need you to leave the room, Victor,” He nodded his head. He stood up, took one last look at Dianna who just smiled at him.
“Please, I want to get to know her if I really am her mate. I want what everyone else has,” he whispered to me as he walked out. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. No pressure.
After Victor left the hospital room, I turned back to face Dianna. She had a small smile on her face, but it seemed that every time she moved even a little, a little bit of her would fade away. I had to think quick, I had to find a way to save her. She was never supposed to be a part of this. She was merely in the wrong place at the wrong time, and now her life hangs in the balance.
“How do I save her?” I ask William.
“I honestly don’t know,” he answered. I looked at him. “Rylee, why do you think you can save her?” he asked me
“I…I honestly have no idea. I just feel that I can. I mean, I’m the chosen one aren’t I? You said it yourself I should have all of the powers that come with being a Primordial, the Primordial, so wouldn’t that include the power of bringing back someone from the dead?” “In theory, yes, but I don’t even have that power, so I wouldn’t know how to use it,” I slumped my shoulders and looked back at Dianna. How was I going to help her? Why did I believe that I could?
Because we can, I can feel it.
Kaleigh? What are you saying?
Rylee, we have the power of resurrection. I can feel it, but this power cannot be used in vain.
That’s the same with all of our powers
No, this is different. This power can be taken away if used with greed. This power is one that no one else will ever have. Not even Sam.
I thought about what Kaleigh said and that hit hard. Knowing that one of our powers could be taken from us if it were ever misused. Hopefully saving an innocent person like Dianna wouldn’t be considered a misuse of power. Kaleigh, we have to save her. She’s innocent in all of this.
I agree with you.
How do we do it?
Turn her.
What!? Kaleigh, we can’t turn another supernatural, even I know that! She’ll die!
But we’re not an ordinary werewolf, remember. We’re special.
I gulped at what she said and stared at Dianna with wide eyes. I’ve never once considered turning her. Could injecting her with werewolf venom really be the key?
Do it, before it’s too late, Rylee!
I took a deep breath and let it out to calm my nerves. If there was one being in this world that I trust more than Wyatt, it was my wolf. Kaleigh has been there for me since the day I turned 18, and she never once left me. Even with everything that happened within the last year of our lives, Kaleigh has been my best friend and is more than just my wolf. She’s my family.
“Olivia, let me pass through the shield,” I tell her. She creates an opening, and I walk through it. “Drop my cloak, I need to do this as Rylee,” Dianna gave me a weird look and Olivia dropped my disguise. Dianna’s eyes widened in shock. “That’s right, Dianna, I’m the real Rylee. I’m the Primordial that Alessandro was after. That’s why I told you I wasn’t the person you thought I was when I was Megan. It was a magical disguise, and the Rylee you saw the other day was a magical clone created by the dark witch Svetlana,” “Wow, and I thought my turning into dust was some crazy s**t,” she replied.
“Dianna, I can save your life, but it comes with a price,”
“What price?”
“You’ll see, but I think it’s for the best, and I’m certain that you will still be mates with Victor,” she smiled and nodded slightly, and another small bit of her turned to ash.
“Rylee, do you know what you’re doing?” William asked.
“No, but it’s all I’ve got,” I answer. I gently push away Dianna’s hair and lean down to her neck. “Dianna, this may hurt, but I promise, I’m trying to save you,” she nodded, and before any more of her faded, I quick bit down as hard I as could and prayed to the moon goddess and the powers that be that this was the answer to saving her life, and giving Victor a second chance at love. .
