"Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man's desire to understand."

-Neil Armstrong
subject and so that

The day past by and I spent it reading all the text in the book that will help me understand what is a Knightmare, I know they are a magical being toss here in the human world, but since I start reading different books about the magical creation I never read anything about a Knightmare. I started reading this type of books when I was 15, five years since my parents was killed, I dreamed about my mother showing me various mythical books and urging me to read, I woke up with only one word left in my lips, Knightmares.

Since then, my curiosity about my mother's roots intensify, I am not new into the mythical world,  or any magical being, long before I knew my mother was a magical being, I already know my father was a half-witch and a half werewolf. And I grew up with that knowledge I also know that everyone that serves my father and mother (and now in me) was also magical beings. Though only Helen and Anton were direct in line with my commands, they are both witches. All my life though I've never see any werewolf except my father's light silver wolf, I never shifted, though all my senses are fairly above any normal senses of a normal human girl, but that is all. The books say that werewolves shift during their adolescent years, I am already past that phrase and I never did shift. My theory is because of my mother being a Knightmare hinder my "wolf" side, maybe my mother has a much stronger bloodline than my father's, or maybe because I am only a quadrant werewolf, that blood was no longer affecting my DNA. So lots of maybes, but there is one fact I know, I am a witch, I can do what other witches can, but what's crazy is, I don't need to utter spell to have it done, I just need to focus. To focus what I want to happen and viola! It's done. The books says that only the High Priestess can do things only using their mind, maybe my grandmother whom I never met was a High Priestess and I inherit it, -maybe.

I feel the presence of Anton outside the office door before I hear him knock, I let him come in but I never raise my face from the book I am reading it's about the fairies and what they can do.

"Is there any progress about what I want you to do Anton?" I asked still not looking at the big man in front of me.

"I'm still trying to locate the pack, Tammie." He said to me using that nickname that got me looking at him.

"Don't call me that." I said with the calmness that I can muster, it's what my father used to call me, and right now, I don't want any reminder about those bitter sweet memories.

"But it always makes you look at me though." He said with fondness and smile at me lightly. I sigh; I don't want to continue that kind of conversation.

"You've been trying to locate that pack since forever, Anton." I said to him, slightly angry, how hard is it to locate the pack where my father came from?

"It's hard, because we don't have any clue where your father came from, or his father for that matter, we don't even know if your grandmother was the real mate of your grandfather, we don't know the slightest thing Tamara, that's what makes it hard."

He said answering my thought. I glare at him.

"Stop reading my thought." I said

"I am not. Your just thinking out loud." He answers me with a shrug. I growl at him, I know I am not thinking out loud, he sigh and shake his head.

"Okay, I'm sorry, but your such a very secretive young lady, that's why I can't help but invade your thought.' He said explaining.

"It's supposed to be private." I said with a duh tone. He just smiles.

"Anyway it's not the reason why I came here." He said with seriousness.

"What is it?" I said and close my book.

"The men found a lead to that woman in the picture." He said. I automatically sit upright.

"where?" I asked.

"Alaska." He said. Finally! That woman may not know everything but at least she may know something about my mother.

"Then I guess we're going to Alaska." I said and look at Anton who grins excitedly like a 6 years old boy and not some 50 year old married man.

"Yes, I guess we are." He said.
