Judy’s POV

I was somehow back in my bedroom. Not the room I shared with Gavin at the villa, or the room that I lived in at the mansion. But my childhood room at my parents’ house. I was wearing the same pajamas I always wore growing up, the ones with the little flowers on the pants, with a matching pink tank top.
It still seemed to fit me, even though I have grown. My hair was in a messy bun, and when I looked down at my belly, I was no longer pregnant. My heart dropped at the sight. My hand immediately went to my stomach, and I tried to feel for the baby that was no longer there.
My body trembled with fear and nerves, my heart aching at the sight.
My baby boy… he wasn’t there anymore.
It was almost like he was never there in the first place.
Tears burned my eyes as the panic set in.
I was about to scream for Gavin, but then I saw a shadow beneath the door, and I knew somebody was out there, about to walk in. I hoped with all of my being that it was Gavin. I needed to see him. I needed to find out what happened to our baby.
The doorknob turned, and the door opened slowly. I got out of bed and rushed to the door, expecting it to be Gavin. I needed him right now: Tears stung in the back of my eyes, and I opened my arms to rush into his.
But once the door opened and I didn’t see Gavin, I stopped in my tracks.
It was a woman I didn’t recognize, and holy hell, she was stunning. She had long blonde hair and the bluest eyes I have ever seen, with long dark lashes and cheekbones so sharp that they could slice through any tension in the room. She was tall, wearing a shimmering white dress that hugged her delicate form.
Her skin was porcelain to the point where it nearly glowed, and the corner of her plump pink lips tipped up into a smile. I immediately felt calm in her presence, but the thought of my baby no longer being in my belly was enough to keep me grounded.
“Hello, Judy Montague,” the woman said, her voice soft and almost musical. It sent a strange warmth through me that no voice had ever sent through me before, not even Gavin’s.
“Where’s Gavin?” I asked, my voice coming out way steadier than I felt. “And where’s my baby?”
This time, my voice cracked when I said the word “baby.”

“You have nothing to worry about. Your baby is safe and with his father,” she told me, making my eyes go wide.
Gavin had our baby. I stared down at my belly; there was no indication that there had ever a baby inside of me. I didn’t feel as if I had just given birth. Besides, it was way too soon for me to be having this baby. I was only 6 months pregnant. I know that this pregnancy was progressing quickly, but I didn’t think I’d be having this baby this soon.
I looked up at this woman and took a step away from her; I didn’t feel threatened by her, but she was still a stranger in my room. She took a step further into the room before the door shut behind her; I blinked a couple of times, confused.
She didn’t even touch the door, and yet it shut automatically. Or at least it looked like it did.
“You do not need to fear me, child. I would never hurt you. In fact, I love you very much, and I only want what’s best for you. You must believe that.”
I let out a breath because I knew she was right; I wasn’t sure how I knew it… But I did.
“Who are you?” I asked, my voice steady.
“You don’t need me to tell you who I am… You already know. Just look into yourself, and your wolf, and the answers will flow.”
Without me telling them to, my eyes started to flutter shut. I felt my wolf brushing up against me, and the whispered words that came to my ears made my eyes open again as I looked up at her, tears filling them. This time, they weren’t tears of fear or panic… they weren’t tears of sadness.
There were tears of relief.
“The Moon Goddess…” I whispered.
Her smile only grew, and the bigger it grew, the more she glowed. It was radiant, and I knew with certainty that I was right.
“I don’t understand,” I said, shaking my head. “How are you in my bedroom?”.
“Your mind conjured up your childhood bedroom because it’s where you always felt safe,” she explained, a light chuckle in her voice.
I stared down at my body with a frown.
“So, I’m not really here?” I asked.
She nodded.

“Right,” she replied. “You are asleep at Eliza’s clinic… safe and sound. As is your baby and your mate.”
Relief flooded me, and I felt like I needed to sit down. I ended up falling backward onto the bed, not realizing how close I actually was.
The Goddess strolled further into my room until she was near my bed as well. Her eyes were soft, and her expression serene.
“You are one of my most special children, Judy,” the Goddess told me. “The Host of magic is a great honor. I’m sure you realize by now the connection you have with your magic.”
I stared down at my hands, flexing my fingers as if I expected them to do something spectacular.
“It listens to me,” I said, almost more to myself. “I was told magic has a mind of its own and that I need to train it properly. But it does as it asks.”
“It’s because it recognizes you as the host. For it to be unlocked, you have to earn its trust and respect, and you’ve already done that. Now all you must do is strengthen your relationship with it.”
“How do I do that?” I asked.
“Continue to use it; put your trust in your magic, and it will put it’s trust in you,” she replied. “I am only here to reassure you that there is nothing more you need to do. You are a powerful she-wolf and future Luna, and those who doubt you will soon learn that you are the right one to lead them.”
“You have a lot of faith in me,” I told her, letting out a breathy laugh.
Her smile grew softer, and her eyes sparkled as she reached out to me. I oversaw her hand, and when she placed it on my shoulder, warmth spread through me.
“You should have faith in yourself, Judy Montague. Just as your family and friends do… just as your magic does… and just like your son does.”
“My son…” I whispered, placing my hand on my flat belly.
She nodded.
“You have a gorgeous baby boy who will need his mother to be strong. You say you don’t have Luna training, but you couldn’t be more wrong. I have been watching you since you were born, and you have more than enough experience. You had been training your whole life for this moment. There is no better Luna, and one day soon, you will see that for yourself. You have my word. But until then, you must put faith in the abilities that you have.”
