Chosen By The Moon
Chapter 315
“I didn’t ask what other people expect, Lewis. I asked you. What do you think should happen after the king is gone?” I think she’d make a fucking good ruler, if I was being completely honest, but I know that wasn’t the answer she wanted from me.
“I don’t know, I think we need to take josh down before we even think about the aftermath.” She shook her head and sighed, sitting up herself and looking at me, caution embedded into her beautiful orbs.
“We will have the opportunity to get more people involved with our rebellion, but only if we have a plan set in place. Everyone thinks it should be me to sit on the throne, but I don’t know the first thing about ruling over people. Not to mention everyone only wants me to become they thing the moon goddess chose me specifically for that role. Her hands three themselves into the air and she scoffed at the situation. I was simply baffled.

I had told her personally time and time again that people rally behind her because she’s not afraid to speak up, so many other people have told her that she is the reason they are fighting, that she alone had the ability to rally everyone together, she can revoke change, and yet, she had such little doubt in herself that it was almost heartbreaking to hear.
I couldn’t for the life of me comprehend how perfect she was, and how brave she is about everything. She stood up to lycans for years and still can’t see the impact she has..
“Dylan, you may not like the answer to your questions.” I had to be honest with her did I, I mean I couldn’t just tell her what she wanted to hear, because then after the inevitable war, we would be no better off
“You think I should accept the crown?!”
“I think you’re a natural leader. I think despite all your reservations, when the time comes you’ll accept your role within the world, and I honestly and genuinely think you’ll become exactly what the world needs.” I watched her orbs grow slightly at my words, but I spoke my truth. I truly believe that once josh is out, Dylan will naturally unknowingly take over. “I don’t even think you’ll understand exactly what that is, but I do know, you are the one who will invoke change.”
“Why though? I’m just one person, how can everybody expect me, of all people, to carry the weight of the entire world on my back.” He head shook very slightly and a frustrated groan sounded out from her as she buried her face into her hands. “I have a big mouth, I know that, if I had just kept my ducking mouth shut in the beginning then none of this would have happened.”
“You still would have been the queen, you still would have had to endure torture from josh, he’s to narcissistic to know any different, whether you were compliant or not.” I had seen josh for exactly who he was, and I had no doubt in my mind that he would have done exactly the same things to her, if she had in fact accepted him. The only difference is, she would have willingly and compliantly accepted it, at least this way she made her views very clear from the get go.
“I don’t doubt it… but it’s not the king who is causing my anxiety and fear at the minute. It is societies insanely high expectations of me, it’s just impossible to live up to them.”
