Dinner began and we were all given the option of salad and soup to start before the main course. I chose the soup and requested more wine which I drank quickly causing Sophia to whisper in my ear as she poured me another glass, “A little slower my sweet girl.” I nodded at her then felt the glare of the High Priestess and Sophia quickly whisked herself away back to standing surrounding our table. There were all my lovely fellow priestesses standing around me as if they were statues while we all ate. I hated it and tried to imagine what it would be like if they could sit here with us too. They deserved it far more than I and especially the High Priestess did. These women had protected me more than I knew and were just as trapped. I took a long moment looking around the space taking their faces in because once my hair was revealed I wasn’t sure if I would ever see these women who raised me again. I took especially a long look at my beautiful sweet mother with her hair in a simple br

I was terrified to walk down the aisle and wasn’t sure what to do but the Alpha had told me to approach and I knew I could not deny his command. Everyone was still standing now and smiling except the High Priestesses whose face was as red as Sarah's, the Red Priestess's hair at this point. She had tried a few more times to say something but the Alpha completely ignored her and smiled at the guests and me. As I walked it brought joy to my face to see so many of the priestesses' faces and all looked as though they were excited about the future. I wanted to be as excited as them but also knew it may not be the same for me. I was terrified of what was going to be unveiled and as Reese walked behind me proudly as my chaperone, I stopped at the end waiting for her to go stand by Rogan. He greeted her and continued to smile at me as if he had won just now but there was so much more he didn’t even know that had happened. I gave him a glance doing my best to take as much of him in as poss

The air was cool and crips against my fur. I allowed my wolf to guide me and she was loving every minute of it. I had hoped we would talk at some point and but for now just feeling her emotions was enough. She was joyful, energetic, and much stronger. I followed closely behind the Alpha and Luna as we made our way into the woods where you could no longer see the White Priestesses’ home. So much had happened and I wasn’t even sure where to begin. My mind was racing about what it looked like when we got back but right now my pack was following tradition and it was traditional to run after the first time you turned wolf with members of your pack. “Kellina try to enjoy this.” Laura put in my head “What how do you know I’m not?” “My dear, your whimpering.” She said concerned “I can’t hear it.” “You will soon enough as your wolf and you develop a larger bond, you will be able to do far more than you will ever know Kellina,” Sarah interjected. I wasn’t sure if I was e

I followed him to the same spot just a few nights before where we had met in the moonlight and he had told me he loved me. I knew I wasn’t going to hear it again and I walked slowly to a small private area prepared to hear what I’d been dreading. He looked sick and even though his tan skin couldn’t make it obvious he was pale and I knew he must think all of it was a mistake. It was my fault because I should have never met and agreed to spar with him in the first place and then the sparks happened. It had felt like a dream and now I was preparing to get to the darker part of the dream where it turned into a nightmare. He did not want me because I was nothing more than a cross-breed. He stopped and I took a few more steps. We stood there in silence and nobody wanted to speak. I should be respectful I thought to myself and make this easier for both of us. My wolf paced in my head just as nervous as I was. Finally, I couldn’t keep it any longer. “Rogan, it’s fine. I understand

It had been exactly one week since I’d seen Kellina and my entire body ached. I regretted every minute I wasn’t with her and even more the fact I’d left her in that fucking house! My body was going through changes and I could feel my wolf presenting but still it would be another week yet. I kept pushing myself further working out every second I wasn’t at school. Kellina had not been there either but how could she be because she had been tortured by that fucking bitch that had called herself the High Priestess so badly that even with every white wolf caring for besides the few that instigated the entire situation well over a week before they said she could walk. My only way of getting any communication was through Reese as my parents were silent and refused to talk to me about her condition even though I begged. They told me I had to give it the time I’d promised and assured me she would be there on the day of my ceremony. I wasn’t sure if I believed them because having no cont
