CHAPTER 6

Luke POV

“Luke breath” the words rang through my head and my breathing slowed down as well as my heartbeat.

My bones were breaking, and I was nowhere near in control of my actions.

“Luke focus on my voice and try to regain control”

But I couldn’t my body was starting to tremble, and my canines were coming out.

Suddenly the supreme alpha stood up.

“Beta Mathias – will you please excuse this boy from the ceremony since he is clearly not feeling well. Beta Steffan will help you escort him out of the hall so we can continue.

Omg!

She noticed – that means I created a scene in the middle of the ceremony.

But what affected me the most was hearing her call me a boy. A boy!

Not young man or just man – but a boy! As if I was merely a child who had snuck into the ceremony and for fun put myself among the pledgers.

Maybe that was why she stopped in front of me – in disbelieve that I could be an actual pledger and not just a joke.

Well, I didn’t really prove her wrong. I almost wish I was part of a joke and that this was part of planned out prank.

My classmate Tomas helped me on my legs. I was about to thank him when he leaned in and whispered in my ear.

“You are so dead!”

And he was right! This was not going to be forgiven by the alpha and certainly not the supreme alpha since I ruined her introduction and put the entire pack to shame.

Alpha Steffan came up to me and put his arms around my waist supporting me. But instead of leaning on him I launched at him trying to bite him.

What was wrong with me?! And what was wrong with my wolf?!

“When did he last shift?” Steffan asks Mathias still holding me upright. Even though my body was continually attacking him trying to get him to let me go.

“He hasn’t” Mathias stutters. “He has never shifted before. He has no control. “

He sounded both worried and scared at the same time. Was he scared of me? I had no idea how I looked or what was going with my body. But based on the look on Mathias face it was a terrifying sight.

“Calm the fuck down! I don’t want to hurt you” Steffan growled at me dragging me through the hall.

Everyone’s eyes were at me shaking their heads in disgust and disbelieve like I was a mad dog with rabies.

Maybe I was going mad. Hearing voices and not being able to control my body or my action must be some kind of insanity.

“Luke, can you hear me?” the voice ones more spoke throughout my head. I nod aggressively which probably looked more like an epileptic attack than an answers since it was clear that nobody else could hear the voice.

“I can stop the shift, if you can’t – but it will hurt. Will you let me do that?”

I nod again.

And then extreme pain went through my body, and I heard myself scream in pure agony. Steffan let me go and I fell to the floor hiting my head on the marble floor. I could feel the warmth of my own blood running down my face as I saw the doors of the great hall open, and my aunt Lucy running towards me.

She cradled my head looking up at the supreme alfa.

“You did this!”

And then everything went black.
