Ebony's POV"You ready to go?" Alice asked as I walked outside with Keith beside me"Yes," I replied with a smile. "You do know this is a girls-only day, right?" Alce asked, looking at Keith"I was just walking her down here," He said "Hey, wait for me," Alissa said, running outside to where we were standing."Alissa, what are you doing here?" Alice asked"I am going shopping with you," Alissa replied"No, you should be resting after what happened to you," Alice said "I am fine, mom. The wolfsbane is completely out of my system, and I feel better than ever," Alissa said "I think you should stay home," Alice said "I said I was fine. Besides, I want to go shopping with my big sister Ebony," Alissa said "Hey, you are still here?" Jacob asked as he came out of the Palace"Yes, we were on our way out, but Alissa wants to come along. I don't think it is a good idea," Alice said "Like I told mom already, I am feeling fine now," Alissa said "Are you sure?" Jacob asked"Yes, dad. I am

Ebony's POVI am having a hard time sitting through dinner tonight. I know that Alice is lying about everything she said Thomas tried to do to her, and it makes me wonder what else she is lying about. Not only that, she kept saying smart remarks about my mom being an Omega and housekeeper's daughter and how my grandparents were worthless and traitors. It was taking so much strength not to tell her about herself. Keith realized that I was upset and placed his hand on mine. I knew he wanted to say something, but I told him not to because I knew it would cause more problems. He promised he wouldn't as long as she didn't say anything disrespectful about me. What made me mad was that Jacob would smile at her lovingly as she said those hateful things. It was like he was blinded by the mate bond and couldn't see her true colors. "I can't wait for Ebony's Celebration tomorrow. Wait until you see the dress that she picked out," Alissa said, trying to change the topic of conversation."I am t

Two Weeks LaterEbony's POV"Great job, Ebony. I never knew you were so strong," Raven said as she walked onto the training field. I was fighting with one of the warriors and was proud to say that my fighting had improved tremendously. I could take on three of the warriors at a time and win. At first, I thought they were going soft on me because Keith told them to, until Keith came out upset with them all for fighting me at the same time."Yeah, our future Luna is getting stronger every day," Tim, the top warrior, said"You want to go get something to eat?" Raven asked"Yeah, let me freshen up first," I said and began walking to my room."Have you heard from your father or sister?" Raven asked as we looked through the menu"No, not since Keith and I left the Palace," I replied. I haven't heard from anyone from the Palace. I wasn't surprised that Jacob didn't contact me because he had made it clear what he thought about me, but I thought Alissa would have at least checked to make sure

King Jacob's POV"How was your day today, Alissa," I asked while we were eating dinner. 'Just a normal day at school," She said " I was thinking that it was time for you to be trained to be the future Queen, Alissa,' Alice said, and Alissa began to frown."Are you okay, Alissa?" I asked"Yes, I am just tired. Can I be excused?" She asked"No, Alissa. We need to get you ready to take over when you turn twenty-one," Alice scolded."We will talk about this later. You can be excused, Sweetheart," I said "Thanks, daddy," Alissa said and went to her room."Why did you let her go? You know we need to make sure she is ready to become the Werewolf Queen now that we know Ebony doesn't want to be it," Alice said "I don't want to talk about this right now, Alice. We have a few years to make that decision," I said"What do you mean, make that decision? You still don't think Ebony is fit to be Queen do you?""It is her birthright, Alice," I said "So, you would forgive her for disrespecting me?

Ebony's POV"Hey, My Love," Keith said as he walked into our room. He walked over to me, wrapped his arms around me, and pulled me to him. "So what happened?" I asked "King Jacob came to because he heard about you almost being kidnapped. He also said he wanted to apologize to you personally for the way she talked to you back at the palace," Keith said"How did he find out about me almost being kidnapped?' I asked"He had some of his warriors come here to keep an eye on you. He said he was worried that you could be in danger for being his daughter and also because of when that man tried to shoot you back at the palace," Keith said. I was shocked that he would do that. I thought he didn't care about me or want me around. 'Do you think I should talk to him?" I asked"I don't want to tell you what to do, My Love. I want you to make your own decision," Keith said "What would you do if you were in my shoes?" I asked"Honestly, I might hear him out," Keith said 'I don't know what I shou
