Finding Myself

Stranger

It was so good meeting with you guys again.  I had my finals so I'm very sorry. I really like this chapter so I hope you like it too ^_^

***_***

When I think about how I survived my life in Midnight Raven pack, I see that there were a few things that made my life worth living. My family maybe, or that dream about the car crash making me think that there was more to my life than what meets the eye. Now I know, I was supposed to do more from the beginning.

When I saw Gabriel last night all I could think about was 'When will I break down?' But it didn't happen. I survived that too. Rejecting him made me realize that I wasn't going to have another soul mate but at least I would be happy with my decision.

I've always waited for someone to take me by the hand and take me somewhere new, somewhere I meant something. I didn't know who I was anymore. When William came back to take me I was more than happy to go. I was happy to meet my 'real' family but then at some point I found out that being a family doesn't have to be by blood, your family only has to accept you and love you for who you are and they did. Both of my families accepted me and loved me for who I was. That's the reason why I don't differentiate them from one another.

But no matter what I do, as I stand here in front of my window watching the cloudy sky, I realized that the return of Gabriel, slowly broke down those walls that I've accepted home. That guy is seriously messing with my head.

"Knock knock, honey where are you at? Can you hear me?" Jelena's voice woke me up.

"Jelena, when did you come here?" I asked to my best friend and the head of the archers in my army.

"Long enough to realize that you are going deaf. Seriously what were you thinking so hard?" her voice was cautious.

"Nothing really. Why are you here? Did something happened?" I averted the subject quickly.

"Yeah, uhh the council is waiting for you at the throne room." I scowled thinking what could they possibly want just a day after my promotion.

"Ok, let's go." I sighed trying not to show my emotions too much and followed Jelena.

I was used to these kinds of meetings because dad took me to every one of them since Will rejected his right to the throne right after I came back knowing that I was the rightful heir.

Every Alpha, every leader of the covens and the neolas' knew me and were pretty anxious on the way to my coronation which will be in a month. I was the Queen already because the acceptation ritual was already happened inside the council. The only ones who know about this were at most 11 people, Me, my family in here and 5 members of the council.

Everyone still thinks that my dad is the King but what they didn't know is that dad stepped down a week ago when I took over the position of Commander from Bruce Belikov. He was one of the members of the council as a werewolf along with my uncle Jedikiah who is a moon walker like my dad, a witch Amaryllis Brevil, a shape shifter Akin Turner and a vampire Remus Seymour.
