Chapter 111
“Then, she knows now because you told me?” Worried asked Celia, indeed Crescent was the most
cheerful of the bunch, she would not take this information with ease. To find out that she was not
supposed to exist would break her, to say the least.
“No, she does not know. She is in a dormant state. To keep her safe… I can only do this for now.”
Waning replied.
“Why, is she not well?” Celia asked concerned.
“For now she is safe, but this is only a temporary solution.” Waning sadly affirmed. Crescent had been so dear to her, and the pain of losing her was the same as the pain of losing a sister.
But she has been with us all of our life, we can still keep her with us in the same body. Why is she getting weaker?”
“When I placed her with my consciousness, I thought it would be enough, I hoped she could live with
- us. But for both of us to coexist in a place meant for only one wolf, a fine balance was needed.
I am stronger than Crescent, but I suppressed myself as much as possible, I tried to avoid even *hifting, I tried everything to prevent us gaining more power to maintain that very frail equilibrium.
But by rejecting Rayan, Crescent lost more of her strength, making it harder for me, as I had to lower mine also. So I suppressed myself even more, I hid in the deepest corner I could.
But us the dominant side, finding our rightful mate, made the tip of the scale become even more
unbalanced.
Meeting Salas and Sky, recognizing and accepting one another as mates, I knew I would gain more and more power… the more we would be fond of them the stronger our bond would get, making her consciousness slip away. I would kill her.
So I temporarily tried to hide from my mate. I thought he would not love us if he could not sense a complete us, person and wolf, but he still fell in love and now he was about to die.
It was only supposed to be temporary, just until Crescent was saved, then I would’ve told you and him.
I never thought that… Waning said sad.
Trying to acknowledge all the information she just learned, Celia now understood her reasons.

Honestly, if she would have been in her place she would have done the same. She would also not be able to accomplish her wishes, if it meant hurting someone. Especially, being selfish and fulfilling her desires and, in the process, kill Crescent or Waning.
“If she is in a dormant state then… will she die?” Cella asked with a heavy heart. Even though Crescent was never her wolf, the bond they had was stronger than family. It had only been the three of them, one person two wolves. Not to mention that for her, it still felt like Crescent was her wolf no
matter what,
“Clarissa has been trying to find a solution all this time that was why she is traveling. She is close to finding it.” Waning replied, she was getting a bit more relaxed, having shared everything with Celia.
“Clarissa knew of this?” Celia asked wide eyed.
“Yes, she has always known. From the moment she found us in the forest after we killed those
rogues.
from the moment we first met her. But I asked her to not tell you.” Waning said.
“Will there be enough time for Clarissa to find the solution? Can we also help?
We can’t just stay and do nothing.” Celia said anxious. Although, she knew Waning was level headed. If they could have done something with their own hands, Waning would have already told her before and they would also search for the solution, but it was most likely not something they could
do themselves.
Clarissa was a witch from the most powerful of covens, and some time ago she even assumed its leadership. A witch was the best problem solver, she had the best connections with every other supernatural creatures.
The spells, curses and potions of a witch were sought out by everyone and, generally, the payment for those were a favor the witches would get from said creatures. That was their traditions from
long ago.
Clarissa had helped a lot of high ranking creatures in her long life, so she must have gotten. Information from them.
“The best suited to help us is a witch, no one else.
And as werewolves, because of the last war thirty years ago, most connections with witches were weakened. They would not help us, they would even try to sabotage us finding the solution, if we would ask ourselves. Clarissa is a fortunate exception.
Do not worry, with Crescent in dormant state in the deepest corner where I previously was, she can hold on for longer. Keeping her in one place is easier. Clarissa also informed me that she would be coming any day now.” Waning tried to comfort Celia.
As Celia thought, she could not have helped, or else they would already be in the middle of doing something. They could only wait, but even waiting. Waning had been doing it herself. Celia looked the majestic white wolf feeling a sense of déjà vu.
Waning was already a queen, her sorrow and loneliness in being the only one aware of everything. could be felt and seen all around her, she resembled Salas in this way.
