Mia's povJosy put everything away and smiled at me, holding out her hand. I was hesitant to take it, I didn't think I was ready to meet everyone, maybe just wait another day?"There's no need to be nervous darling. Everyone's going to love you" she said with a warm smile. "How are you so sure?" I asked, trying to delay going out to meet everyone. "Because we've been waiting for you for way too long, we've been without a true priestess for a very long time so you finally coming back to us is like Christ returning to the humans" she said, her gaze quite cheerful. I wondered how she could be so calm about this whole thing when I'm here dying on the inside. "What if I don't measure up? What if I'm not good enough? You say my mother was the best priestess the coven has ever had, what if I can't be her?" I asked, this time not stalling but expressing genuine concerns. "Oh sweetheart, no one expects you to be like your mother, not even she would expect you to be like her" she said and th

Mia's povI took my clothes off, folding them neatly and put them on the floor, well, not before sniffing Trevor's shirt. I slowly got into the tub, one leg at a time and sat down. I heaved as the water came to chest, feeling a bit of panic take root. I didn't know what I was supposed to do so I just sat there for a while. I think I sat there for about five minutes before I got bored and started running my hands over my body. I took a deep breath and went under, running my hands through my hair, making sure the herbal water touched every inch of my body. I breathed heavily once I surfaced and used my hands to wipe the water off of my face. It took a few deep breaths to finally calm my racing heart and when I did, the ache was the only thing I was feeling. I brought my hand to chest, wondering how Trevor was doing, he must hate me so much. What if he moves on? He might find another she wolf to mate, an Alpha's daughter that won't run away from him. Goddess knows how many would just

Mia's pov"Congratulations on passing the test, I had a little doubt since you knew nothing about me until a few minutes ago but you surprised me" the goddess said coming to sit next to me. Her eyes wandering over in front of us and I also took notice of where we were. This place was fit to be the home of the goddess, the grass was a green that looked like it was coloured till they found the perfect shade. There was a mountain far ahead that had a waterfall, leading to a river. The river bed had a variety of wild flowers and shrubs growing all over, giving the place the colour it needed to complete it's heavenly look. "Nature is quite beautiful" she said, making me look at her before looking around, this place was just as beautiful as her. I chanced a look behind me and the creepy forest was still there, only this time, it didn't seem so creepy. I could clearly see inside and the creature that had been chasing me wasn't there. "Don't worry about him, he's out patching up his wounde

Trevor's pov"It does make sense but it's extremely dangerous. You have no idea what you're walking into and I'll be damned if I lose anyone else!" Dad yelled with so much authority, I had to sit down and shut my mouth. We had come to our parents with what Britney had come up with and as much as they agreed with her theory, they wouldn't let us follow the lead and we'd been going back and fourth for a good ten minutes. And it looked like my dad was done listening to what I had to say.Their argument was valid, we have no clue what could be waiting for us but we had to at least try, I had to try. This is my mate that's missing!I was fuming on the inside but there was nothing I could do, dad had used his Alpha command on us and we couldn't go against it, it was basic wolf nature to always submit to our Alpha. Being an Alpha doesn't excuse me from my Alpha's command, I'm not the one in charge so I had to listen. "Maybe we can figure out a way to look into it without risking anyone?" m

Trevor's pov"We leave in five minutes" uncle Mika's cold voice rang through the mind link, making me gulp and stuff the rest of my things into my bag. I didn't know how long we'd be out there looking, so I made sure I had everything I could possibly need without over packing. "Is anyone else terrified of uncle Mika?" Britney's voice came through about a minute later and I had to agree, though I wouldn't say it out loud because of my status but I see why he's my dad's gamma. "Oh I pissed my pants" Wade said and I chuckled, leave it to him to lighten up the mood, though I'm not too sure if he's joking right now. "I can't tell if you're serious or joking" Cole said, speaking my thoughts and I couldn't help laughing. "It's best if you didn't know" Wade answered, making me laugh harder. I breathed deep after the laughing fit and was grateful to have friends like these. Only they could make me laugh even with my heart literally in shreds."Alright, head out, I don't think we want to ke
