On the day I turned 18 I was pulled out of the foster program I had been in since age 3. I was told by my foster parents, Chuck and Courtney that my parents and 2 siblings had been killed in an automobile accident. I was the only survivor. I had...
Once we had everyone here Grammy had a very busy schedule re-written out for me. She looked at me and said, "this is the schedule I worked out for you starting tomorrow after talking with all who will train you. We will let everyone settle down in their rooms today and get to know the territory. When either them or us have special holidays you won't have class. Example tomorrow is the full moon and you won't have class the next day to rest from being up at night. We will let you get introduce to wolf culture.
However, you might be given homework to do. We will Freya decide that. Since you are a part of every culture being taught here you will have a field trip type day to learn about the holiday they are celebrating. Your assignment will be on field trip type days to explain to the elders what you learned. Go enjoy your day off because the next three months will be filled with work, training, school and holiday field trips.
I took off into the woods to just run and explore. While exploring I came across an abandon farmhouse. There is an overgrown orchard in back. I saw pears, apples and plums. I went further through it and saw an odd tree with plants. They smelled wonderful. I saw a few buckets. When going through them I found two that did not have holes in them. I picked them up and filled them with the combination of the four fruits. When I got home I called out, "Grammy, want to show you what I found."
She walked in and said, "You found the old orchard. You got Bergamot Orange, plums, apples and pears."
"I wasn't sure what these were," I said as I held up the Orange.
"I will make a cake with the few you brought back for tomorrow's supper. Then might go harvest more and make some essential oil with them. Now let's go eat dinner and watch a movie tonight to relax since tomorrow will be a busy day."
I once again glanced at my schedule and agreed with her. All our guest gradually joined us for the movie. They all said they loved their rooms and had settled. We ate popcorn and drank soda until it was time to head to bed.

I woke up the next day and put on some shorts and a sports bra. I had been told not to worry about wearing shoes. I went outside half awake the first morning of wolf training. I did not have my wolf yet but Grammy felt it was necessary. She said she knew I had a wolf inside me because she had seen it in her dreams. That morning I met Alpha Shane and he introduced me to Beta Mikel and Delta Zander. Alpha Shane, "Elder Maia is correct. I can feel your wolf. She is wanting out and is strong. I know you are about three months from your 18th birthday. I would like for us to all sit down with everyone as a group to discuss your wolf."
I went inside, "Alpha Shane would like for you all to come out. He says he wants to discuss my wolf."
When Elder Silva came out Alpha Shane looked confused. "Why was I called here if you have Elder Silva here?"
Elder Silva replied, "hello Shane. I wanted you to confirm what I felt when I met her. I asked Maia to contact you. Please tell me what you feel."
Alpha Shane replied, "Even though she is three months away from her shifting day. Her wolf is ready to come out, but if not controlled could be feral if she breaks out early."
