A few years ago, I never would've expected to be walking towards the leaders of the world, and talk about my biggest secret. Now, I'm walking confidently down the corridor, ready to face the most prominent men and women across the world. I would've thought of this as terrifying all those years ago.Instead, I'm relieved. I no longer have to hide what I really am. So, as I walk into the crowded room, I don't cringe out of fear. No. I march in with confidence, and stand with all of my friends, ready to take the next step in my life.Out of the sea of faces, only one stands out to me, Edna. The second I stop walking, the room begins to kneel. It's like a wave, person after person, dropping to their knees. "Why is everyone bowing?" I ask Lily, who's to my left.She merely shrugs, just as confused as me. "I'm guessing they realize what you are, and are showing you that they don't question your claim nor title, but I'm not them."I stare at them as they bow. It's unnerving. "You don't have
2 YEARS LATER ( Epilogue)(Yvonne’s POV)My heart's beating fast, butterflies are going crazy all over my stomach. I try to breathe in and out a few times to try and calm my nerves. The anticipation is overwhelming as I prepare to take this momentous step in my life. Today is the day I marry the love of my life, Connor.I look at Lily, my bridesmaid, as she opens up the door and her eyes meet mine. A wave of excitement washes over her face, and she can't contain her joy as she closes the door behind her. She stands beside me, our eyes locked through the mirror reflection."Are you ready?" she asks, her voice filled with genuine enthusiasm."I think so," I reply, my voice betraying a hint of nervousness."You look beautiful," Lily reassures me, her sincerity shining through. "And trust me, Connor loves you. I guarantee he's gonna cry when you start walking down the aisle."Her words offer solace and encouragement. I take a deep breath, feeling a surge of confidence building within me.
( Sophia’s POV )No more! I am going to be turning eighteen soon and I will NOT allow myself to endure my family's abuse anymore!"We need to hurry, your brother is coming." My wolf, Krystle tells me.I quickly zip up my backpack and place the straps over my shoulders as I make my way to my bedroom window, that's located on the second floor. I sit on the ledge before jumping down and landing on my feet. As soon as I stand up, I overhear my father yelling out to everyone to find me and bring me back to him. Which I can't let that happen, I know how bad the punishment will be and I already have enough scars and bruises to last me a lifetime.Immediately I start running as fast as I can into the dark woods, without knowing or even caring where I'm going. I just need to get as far away from all of them as possible.Once I feel that I've gotten far enough ahead to stop and catch my breath for a moment, I stop and start trying to look around, hoping I can somewhat see a path. But then Kryst
I sat on the train wondering what the hell I was going to do. Half of my class population already hates me and we aren't even to the school yet. I can't even have a conversation with someone without fucking up.*A short while earlier*"Sweetie, we love you! You'll come back during Christmas break and tell us about everything that's happened. Don't forget to write!" I sat in my seat on the train as my mom and dad waved goodbye.My parents had already sent one kid to the Werewolf Academy, so they were used to it. I, on the other hand, was a nervous wreck waiting to happen. Sure, I was the daughter of one of the most influential Alpha's in the world, but I am not ready to take on a school full of people that have Alpha blood. Fighting with my brother was enough. I didn't need to have to but heads with anyone else."Bye mom, bye dad!" I gave them a nervous wave as the train pulled away.The person beside me smiled. "It's nice that your parents came to see you off. Mine are too busy with p
I stayed at the cabin until they made a command for all students to return to their seats. I sulked back to my car, hoping no one would notice me come in. The car door slowly slid open and I noticed the silence. I lifted my head and walked in to sit down. My pride wouldn't let me hide my face.The moment I stepped in people started clapping. I looked around in confusion. Everyone's faces showed one emotion, shock.My other half perked up. 'They respect us Yvonne.'I glanced around and then sat down. I raised my hands and they stopped. Maybe school wouldn't be as bad as I thought it would be.********After we emptied out of the train, our class was separated into boys and girls. There were separate dorms for both genders. We followed silently behind an administrator. "Hello ladies." We all said a simple hello and she smiled. "My name is Mitchelle. I would like to be the first to welcome you to your new home for the next few years. Now I know that drama can erupt when you put girls tog
After we had finished dinner, I went to my room to try and get some sleep. Mitchelle had mind-linked everyone telling us that the morning would come early so we all decided to go to bed.I woke up just as the light began to pool in my room. A yawn escaped my lips and I stretched my arms. I looked around and smiled before getting up and getting ready. After I picked out a deep red skirt and a black blouse, I went into my bathroom for a hot shower. As soon as I turned the nob, the ceiling above the shower began to rain down on the ground. Oh I'm beginning to love this place. I stepped into the water after stripping and let the hot water melt the stiffness of my bones. I gently washed my dirty blonde hair and then cleaned my skin. Once I was done I stepped out and dried myself off. I pulled on my clothes, then dried my hair. I was never the type of girl to do something with it. It fell in lazy curls that I never found the need to tame. I decided that I looked good and that I was ready to
(Yvonne's POV)Mitchelle stayed beside me the entire way. She even tried to hold my hand but I kept my arms crossed.The man opened a door and let me and Mitchelle walk through before closing the door. "Alright.There is adequate room to shift. Now do it."I shrugged and smiled as the warmth filled my body. The sound of my bones moving echoed off the walls and my skin itched for a second as the hair erupted from my pores. When I was fully shifted I shook my fur and smirked as the both of them stared at me like I was a ghost.I sat on my hind legs and stared at them. They didn't say anything so I started to lick my paws."You're a tiger." I laughed in my head.'Took you long enough.'The man circled me. "How?"I gave a shrug. 'Don't quite know. I shifted for the first time and this was the product. Gorgeous, isn't she?'Mitchelle was still staring speechless. The man on the other hand was curious. "Can either of your parents do this? Can you possibly change even more into a wolf?"I sh
( Yvonne's POV )I ran across the field to the training building. There were still girls getting questioned and I felt sorry for them. I ran to Mitchelle who was standing, watching over the girls."Hey, so where do I go?" She still didn't look completely comfortable with me."Um hold on." She looked around. "Connor!" A guy a bit older than me came running up to her."Need something miss?" He asked.She turned to me. "Yes. This is Yvonne Desperte.She's going into warrior training. I want you to start her off."He looked at me and smiled. "So you're the one that took on a berserker?" I nodded. "Awesome.You're badass. And you're a Desperte?" I nodded again. "Cool, I know your brother."I smiled. "So you know the idgit that is known as Greyson?"He laughed a little. "I wouldn't call him an idgit.He's pretty cool actually.""You sound like one of his girls." I teased.He laughed loudly. "You think he has girls!" He doubled over with laughter. "Oh, that's rich!" I gave him a confused loo
