Danica’s POV
It’s been 3 months since I shifted for the first time and the pain is still fresh in my mind. I awoke on a crisp fall morning to get ready for school when a familiar sharp pain shot through my body again. I managed a single deep breath and yelled for my Mother just as my bones started to break and contort inside my body again. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I struggled to breathe. My lungs just seemed to constrict and close completely off. My Mother ran into the room just in time to witness me floating just above the floor in a blinding white burst of light. And just like before, I was gently placed back down on the soft carpet in my room. My Mother ran to my side, not sure what to do.
“Danni? Are you okay sweetheart? Please, talk to me?`` She said, her voice in a panic.
As my eyes finally fluttered open, I could see the look of shock and awe on my Mother’s face as she peered down at me laying on the floor.
I looked up at her to say “What is wrong?”
“ I… I.. I’m not sure. You have shifted into your wolf again but this time it’s different! Completely different!`` She exclaimed, still in shock.
I stood up on weak legs and made my way to the full length mirror that hung on the back of my closet door. I stood there in awkward silence as I looked at the reflection staring back at me. It was a beautiful silk black wolf with a single patch of sterling silver fur on the top of it’s head just between it’s ears. She is right. I am the most beautiful pup that I have ever seen.
I seem to be able to hold my wolf form longer this time. When all of a sudden I hear a soft male voice in my head.
“Hello Danica. I am Michael!” He almost whispered.
I couldn’t keep the look of shock from showing in my eyes. My Mother looked at me surprisingly, like she knew what I was thinking.
“ You are hearing your wolf spirit sweetie. Have they told you their name?” She asked.
“ Yes, but I’m confused about something.” I replied.
“Ok? What are you confused about?” She asked again
“ This voice is male but before it was female. Is it normal to have two voices in your head when you shift Momma?” I ask worriedly.
“ Two voices? Are you sure sweetie?” She asked, surprised.
“Yes ma’am, I am sure. The first one with the red patch said that her name was Morgana. And this one with the silver patch says that his name is Michael.” I reply back to her question.
“We’ll talk to your Father when he gets home. And we’ll go see the pack doctor and figure this all out. Ok, baby?” She said softly, trying to ease my mind. She went back downstairs to kind of leave me with my thoughts. I held my wolf form this time a little longer and it gave me more time to talk to Michael.
“ If your name is Michael, then who is Morgana?” I asked nervously.
“ She is my twin sister. We both are your spirit wolves. It is very rare for a shifter to have two spirit wolves as their guide. You are a very special little girl! That is why you have shifted at such a young age.” He replies to my question. Once I returned to my human form, I became very tired and Mom said that I could stay home from school today and rest. But I was too excited to sleep.I just sat in front of the mirror in my room and stared at my reflection. I could see my eyes wanting to shift between my normal emerald green eyes to a dark amber color. It was fascinating to watch. A lot had happened and I didn’t understand most of it but Michael had said that I was a special little girl and I couldn’t help but wonder what he meant by that.
The next morning my Mom woke me up to tell me that she had made me an appointment with the pack doctor to see why my shifting was so unusual. I was worried about what he might say. Would they all think that I was odd or a freak? Would they not love me as their daughter any more? I began to cry as these thoughts raced through my head on the way to the pack doctor.
As I am sitting in the examining room with my Mother waiting on the pack doctor to come in and hopefully tell us why my shifting is so unusual but when he came back to talk to us he only had more questions than answers.
“ I’m sorry Luna Ravens but I don’t have any answers for you. She seems to be a perfectly healthy seven year old girl. Are you sure that she said that she had two wolves inside her head?” He asked suspiciously.
“ Yes doctor, that is what she said. One is named Morgana and the other is named Michael. And when she shifts, there are two very distinct differences in her wolf.” My Mother replied back to him while becoming irritated.
“ Like I said, in all appearances she is a normal, healthy seven year old girl. I do not see any health issues with Danica.” He said as he proceeded to walk out of the room.
My parents took me home just as perplexed as when we arrived. My Mother and Father both reassured me that their love for me had not changed. I was their eldest daughter and along with my sister Rebecca, we would always be their pride and joy.
As the years quickly passed by, I didn’t shift very often but I could carry on long conversations with both of the wolves in my head. My Mother and Father kept it from our pack that I had two distinct wolves because I was being groomed to one day take over the pack from my Father because I was the eldest child. I would be the first Femme Alpha to ever run the Blood Ravens pack and my Father made sure that I trained hard and that I knew how to fight like a warrior. I learned how to be ruthless like my Father and with love and gentleness from my Mother. So, I could rule like a true Blood Ravens Alpha should.
Damien’s POV “MATE? What the hell do you mean by mate?” I hear Danica try to ask me through the mind link but I just ignore her. I look across the battlefield and I see the most beautiful wolf that I have ever laid eyes on but she is about to be ravished by two wolves and I know that I need to stop them before that happens. I am a very unusual wolf. I am almost a thousand years old and I was never meant to have a mate but it looks like the Moon Goddess has different plans for me than even I expected. I have only been the spirit wolf to a chosen few in my five centuries of existence. I have witnessed them finding and losing their mates over and over again. I feel the same heartbreak that my wolves have endured. I am meant to be their strength in great times of need. I am the f
Chapter 40 Nikki’s POV I cannot believe that the she-wolf that I have been battling is actually my best childhood friend and I suddenly don’t know what to do. “ Nikki?” I hear her whisper from above me. “ Dani?” I replied. The battle that rages around us just seems to fade away and we are the only ones that matter. “ What are you doing here? Where have you been? After you disappeared I searched for you but was never able to find you.” She said with tears in her eyes. I could see the surprise in her eyes when she saw me again. When suddenly one of our warriors plows his body full force into Dani’s side knocking her off of me and the both of us out of daze and confus
Danica’s POVI’m so glad to finally be out of Noah’s grasp and back with my own wolves. Once I was dressed, Jessie grabs my shoulders and crooks his finger under my chin raising it to look up at him.“ What did he mean that you were his mate?” He asks me with worry in his eyes.“After he took me we both discovered that we are fated mates. He had kidnapped me for the sole purpose of killing me because he seems to think that he is the rightful heir to the Ravens Blood pack. But once we were face to face then we both realized that we were mates. And that seemed to put a major kink into his plans because his wolf “Morgan” would not let him kill me.” I explain to Jessie. He had a very confused look on his face.
Noah’s POV As I drag Stephanie out of the room and down the stairs she is kicking and screaming to be let go. I know that there is no love loss between her and Danica. Stephanie has done everything that I have asked her to do under the assumption that I will make her my chosen mate and Luna but all of that has changed now and that just makes her hate Danica even more. I cannot allow Stephani to disrespect my Luna. I know that I promised her that I would make her my Luna but I did not expect to find my mate like this. And I definitely didn’t expect it to be a Ravens. The moon Goddess must have a warped sense of humor for making Danica Ravens my mate. Just the simple fact that she is my fated mate makes things so much more complicated for us both even though she doesn’t know that yet. She is supposed to be my sworn enemy but now I don't
Danica’s POV Beta Femme Jacobs comes storming into the room that and slaps me across the face. A low growl escapes my lips but I don’t move to defend myself. I could smell that she had been drinking and I knew that this might be the only opportunity that I might have to get her to tell me the truth if I pissed her off enough. I wanted this bitch to come to me thinking that I had been weakened by the silver that was on my ankle but little did she know that I was not only an Alpha but I was a very special Alpha. Not even silver could weaken me that much. It could weaken my mind linking ability and my shifting but that was about it. It would do nothing to weaken my strength or my agility. I'm just biding my time to let her get her confidence up and make a mistake with me. That is what I really wanted. “What’s
Jessie’s POVWe were searching the woods for any clues of where they might be keeping Dani and suddenly I heard her sweet voice in my head. It sounded panicked and rushed like she knew that she didn’t have much time.“Jessie, I am being held in one of the abandoned mansions on the outskirts of the pack territory.” That was all that she said before the transmission ended. I didn’t have time to respond back to her. I cannot help but to be so protective of her not only because she is my Alpha but that I have realized during all of this kidnapping business that I truly do love her. But at least I know that she is ok for now. I will rip their head off when I find out whoever has taken her. You would think since we are not fated mat
