.........................................I stood watching them in the shadows, until the blonde sensed my presence and turned my way.
She must have been the sharpest among them.
Slowly they all stood up and I could see that they were starting to crouch in a defensive position.
Every pack has a particular scent that pack members could use to Know their own. I was a rogue and whatever traces of the pack scent I had on me was gone, not that I wanted any part of it.
The blondie stepped forward. Brave and a tad bit too confident.
"Who are you?!" She shouted.The forest went still and I could hear the rustling of leaves and chirping of crickets, a squirrel ran past me.
They were all staring wide eyes at me, alert. The blonde had blue eyes and was pretty in a clean way. Typical.
The other two were slightly behind and in this friendship one could see that the blonde was the most outspoken. I was not bothered about the blonde or the fat boy, my focus was on the dark haired girl. She had a different smell from the others, more powerful. Alpha blood. I had traced the scent here.
"What are you doing here?!" The Blondie said even louder, trying to sound threatening. They all couldn't be above 16. Probably preparing to take part in the tests to be inducted into the pack.
"State your business here or leave!" Now blondie was starting to get on my nerves.
"Are you the Alpha's daughter?" I spoke directly to the dark haired girl. She had mysterious eyes, eyes that could draw one in.
"No she's not! Why don't you tell us who you are first?!" The fat boy shot back. Instinctively, he held her arm trying to draw her back.
"Wait!" In a voice so soft I would have missed it.
"Let's hear her out guys."
She stepped a little bit forward.
"Yes I am the Alpha's daughter."
she held an authoritative aura around her. Interesting.
Slowly I said, "The blood moon is just around the corner, take my message to the Alpha. It will be a bloody night."
Almost immediately blondie growled at me, baring her teeth and crouching on all fours. She looked ready to attack me.
"Emily stop!"
Blondie turned to look at her
" You can't be serious thiana! She just made a threat!" The fat boy cried out.
" I Know but we can't fight her, not right now when we have no idea who she is or where she's from. we should report this to the Alpha."
blondie obviously had a different idea cause she was still trying to approach me, looking ready for a right.
"Emily!" The dark haired girl called out.
But blondie had already shifted to her wolf form.
Hmm, I smiled. blondie needed to learn a thing or two.
.............................I couldn't take it, how dare she stand and threaten the Alpha, the pack like it was nothing.
My wolf was in a rage and I let her take over. Strangers or not, no one could threaten the pack, especially not an arrogant rogue like her. When it came to speed and agility, my wolf had the greater advantage in this forest area.
The intruder had a sardonic smile on her face and more than anything I wanted to claw out that smile from her face. I lunged at her, ready to tackle her before she would shift also when suddenly suddenly I was on the ground directly in front of her, powerless. Her eyes were shining bright green like emeralds. I tried to stand up but I was paralyzed.
"Emily!!" Thiana was screaming, running towards me.
The intruder put her foot on my head and called to thiana, " if you out move any closer you're end up just like your friend!". Thiana stopped.
I tried to growl but it came out more as a purring sound. I could feel my wolf slipping from me and before I knew it I had shifted back.
Who was she?! What kind of power was that?!
I had heard of wolves who had been given special abilities but I had never heard of a power that could render a wolf powerless.
She bent over me and held my face up. The green eyes were gone and they were now a shade of brown.
" Word of advice, never charge into a fight without accessing your opponents strength first." I stared into her eyes, willing myself to move and push her hand from my face.
And then she was gone.
Thiana and Quincy rushed to my side.
"Are you okay?!"
"What the heck was that?!!"
"Did she hurt you?!"
"Damn! She can't move!!"
"Emily! Emily!!"
My eyes were heavy and I could feel my body giving in to the darkness around, I eagerly slipped into Oblivion.
...............................
I had gone too far, I knew that. The Blondie would survive, not that I did much damage, but I would be a Target now.
Great!
It was to be expected, one didn't just waltz into a pack, threaten and attack a wolf, especially not this pack. I kept walking through the woods, effortlessly and quietly. Years of practice. The kids should have alerted the Alpha and they might be on my trail, a fruitless endeavour. Grinning widely, I yanked a tree branch out of the way, there would search but they would never find me.
I needed to get to town anyways.
.................................
A story had always been told, passed down from generation to generations of werewolves. A story as old as time itself, the origin of our ancestry. Mama had always loved to tell me stories and once I asked her how we came to be different from the humans, she had smiled, the kind that made her eyes crinkle at the corners and shine so brightly that she looked 10 years younger.
"You really want to know don't you?"
I nodded.
"Well then, it all started a long long time ago, at that time our kind did not exist and witches ruled over all the lands. Witches did not mingle with humans and the humans were scared of the witches, it was forbidden to interact with each other. But something happened." Mama smiled again, apparently waiting for me to ask what.
"What happened mama?!"
She shifted slightly in her chair, " well you see a witch and a human fell in love,"
"Really?!"
"Yes, they were so much in love they risked everything just to be with each other but they were caught and they decided to run away with each other, so they ran and ran. Unfortunately the witches caught up with them, to save her lover the young witch made a spell, an ancient spell that turned her lover into a wolf."
" Noo, why would she do that?"
Mama was laughing, she held my hand and said, "she wanted to protect him."
"By turning him into a wolf?!" My little brain could not comprehend.
"Yes, but the spell allowed him to turn into a human when the full moon was out. So when the witch was taken back to her coven and imprisoned, her lover would come to meet her during the full moon. Then turn back to a wolf when the moon was down."
"She must have been so sad."
Mama nodded," oh she was, she loved him so much, you see their connection was so strong. Then one day she discovered she was with child, the witches would not have her bearing a child of a monster and so she was sentenced to die."
I stood up immediately and held mama, "Noo! She didn't do anything wrong!!"
Mama took my face in her hands and made me look into her eyes, she had deep green eyes that made her look so beautiful. " The world will always find a way to destroy a beautiful thing. Don't ever let them."
I nodded, too caught up in my emotions to speak.
"Did she die?" My voice sounded so small.
Mama smiled, a small sad smile that broke my heart.
"No she did not, you see she cried out to the moon goddess to save her and her lover, the night she was to be killed incidentally fell on a full moon."
I jumped up, " the night her lover would turn into a human!"
"Yes!!, When he found out what was going on, he rushed to save her but was overpowered by the witches. The witches were about to kill him when the young witch cried out to the moon goddess to save them and just then a bright light from the moon struck the village, killing all the witches and setting the witch and her lover free."
"Yayyyyyy!!!" I was shouting, happy to know the witch and her baby was safe from the evil witches.
"So she and her lover left to find a place where they could be together, but the moon goddess had blessed them so the next day instead of her lover turning into a wolf he remained human but still with qualities of a wolf, he could turn into a wolf at will."
My eyes widened with realization, " he was the first werewolf?"
Mama stroked my hair,"yes he was my darling."
" Woah, that's so cool."
Mama laughed, "I guess it was or we wouldn't have been here."
I remembered something, "what about her baby?"
" She gave birth to a girl who could turn to a wolf at will, and also possesses special powers the moon goddess had bestowed on her and her bloodline."
Now mama had on a serious face, I had never seen her look this way. She drew me closer and said, "The power to control wolves. But again she was too powerful and the other planned to kill her but she knew and took her children into hiding."
"Did they kill her?"
Mamaa smiled, " No O'Mara, she lived." She pulled me into a hug.
" She lived." She said again.
I drew back and touched her face, a tear rolled down her eye.
" Don't let them destroy who you are."
And as little I was, I understood her perfectly and nodded.
