Luna awoke the next morning and was ready to head out with Lucian.
The went to her house to get packed. She really looked forward to
meeting other wolves and seeing the one responsible for her growing
up without parents put to judgement. When she got to her house, her
mother and Stepfather well, adopted parents were seated at the dining
table. It was as if they never moved.
She greeted them and went up to pack a bag. When she came
downstairs, she explained that she was going on a trip with Lucian to
meet family.
They couldn't do anything to stop her considering Lucian was her
family and had documented proof that he should have been her legal
guardian. Luna thanked them for taking care of her all her life and
assured them that she did not hate them but that she needed to learn
about herself and that could only be done by getting to know more
people like her. She couldn't tell them that she was a ware wolf since
they were quite human and had attributed the things happening to her
as low self- esteem and somnambulism.
With that she hugged her so called mom and waved goodbye to them.
She left with Lucian and within a matter of hours they came to a
wooded area with huge pine trees and a few miles in they came upon a
PRIVATE PROPERTY sign.
Luna's mother looked at Lucian as he walked away with Luna and
smiled to herself. She knew that he would be trouble for her but she
never thought that she would stand to lose Luna to him at this point.
She still needed Luna and she would get her back. She was the key to
her plan after all. She was so tired of pretending but she just needed to
hold on for a moment longer till her plan unfolds. She just wanted to
put an end to all this drama. She was now living with a man whom she
had to pretend to love in a world that she never wanted to be a part of.
But in spite of those limitations and disappointments she was flawless
in her role play. She'd be dammed if she let some wolf get the best of
her. She would destroy them before she let them win.
Luna was surprised to see a whole town in there. They were greeted by
a huge man in his mid-sixties and a grey-haired woman next to him. He
greeted my Uncle Lucian and apologized for what had transpired within
the pack.
My uncle went on to introduce me but was cut short by the woman.
âYou are the spitting image of your grandmother.â Lucian cut her short
by continuing his discussion with the Alpha. My niece here Luna seems
to have acquired my motherâs gifts. She grew up with humans after her
parents were killed and needs to catch up. She needs to learn as much
as possible about our ways. I have no doubt that she will have no
trouble fitting in. Luna smiled as she did want to learn. She wanted to
know where she came from and wanted to be a part of this new world
But most importantly she wanted to see the woman responsible for her
parentsâ deaths.
They were led to a beautiful house in the center of the village next to
the alphaâs mansion. âI see you didn't tear it down.â Lucian said. âThank
you.â âI always doubted that Aurora had anything to do with this whole
mess but I had no proof. Everything pointed to her and even when Your
brother my beta pleaded with me to have mercy, I couldn't look weak
in the eyes of the pack. I had no choice but to cast them out. I quickly
came to my senses but they were already gone and you left soon after.â
âWell thank the goddess we found the witch so she can be punished so
my brother and his wife can rest.â He said to the Alpha squeezing
Luna's hands. Tears streamed down Luna's cheeks mostly out of anger.
A rage was boiling inside her. One she wished to let loose on the
woman who caused her life to be so empty. She was brought back to
reality when her uncle told her âCome on, let's go inside. When she
entered the house, she came upon a family wall with pictures of a
woman with hair just like her. She was drawn to her. The woman looked
like her only older.
âThis was your grandma. She was a force. He pointed to a picture that
she recognized too well. It was the only one that she could associate
with. It was a picture of her mom and dad holding her as a baby. She
knew because the baby was white haired and the woman felt familiar.
âThis was my mom? This is our family?â this was more than she
expected. She had started to feel so many feelings at once. It was
overwhelming. Luna began to shift and this time it happened so
quickly.
Luna was a great white wolf in the middle of her family home. Lucian
looked at her and gave her a hug as he sensed her pain. âIt's ok. It's ok
sweetheart I know this is a lot but you are strong and you will get
through this. We will get through this together.
