My original plan for this story was that Reagan would die, but I changed my mind :)
5 years later.
Lilith and I have been leaders of the island for around 5 years now, we had made a system that each race would have one leader. So there are now four leaders to make it fair, me, Lilith, a witch, and a human. We made it that way because we thought it was important that everyone had a say, even the people.
We have made sure that every race is equal. No one is above anyone, everyone can work and earn money on their own, and slaves are of course not allowed anymore. It took a while, but we now have a flourishing community of people that could live amongst each other. It was nice being able to walk into the city where people greeted you instead of glaring or wanting to kill you.
Me and Lilith had a meeting with the two other leaders. Nothing special, we had our weekly meetings, bringing up ideas we might have or concerns, lately it has all been very calm, not much to speak of. "the two former members of the council will be released today, I know one of them is your sister, is that not right?" The witch asked.
"Yes, that is right. I speak to her frequently and I do not think she will cause any trouble any longer, and if she does I will take care of it." The witch nodded. I still had not spoken to or seen her sister since that day in battle. After so many years I still did not want to see her and I was not planning to either.
After the meeting we went back home, my mother had managed to find most people from our pack, she had gathered them all and sent them to me. I was their new alpha despite my young age, my sister had died, she was killed before the battle had even occurred, just like my father. It was just me and my mother left of the family.
My pack resided close to Lilith's home now, however, they were welcome to come into her home whenever they wanted, they usually ate food there unless they had hunted something. They had their own home that they built. I walked over to my pack once in a while to make sure everything was going alright, I did still live in Lilith's home with Reagan.
When we arrived home I met with my pack, Reagan was there as well having a talk with a few of them. "Hello alpha," Some of them said when I entered the home. I smiled, I would never get tired of being addressed as alpha. "You should come hunt with us someday, I feel like you are never using your wolf form anymore." My friend Lyr said.
"I have been busy, but I will come with you this week. How are the pups?" On cue, two small wolves ran up to me with their tails wagging and everything. "They finally turned!" Lyr said excited about the fact. I smiled, I was happy for her, she had two sons that were both 7 years old and they had just turned into their wolf form for the first time. "That is great, I am happy for you, and they are so cute." I put my hand through their fur and they licked my hand and attempted to jump up on me.
"That's enough boys, let Eleanor be." They backed off. I was an alpha, but I had a sweet spot for cute pups. They were young anyway, so I let them do more than they were actually allowed to do, as long as they did not get hurt it would be fine. "Hello alpha, I have something to report to you." A man in my pack said, his name was William and he was on patrol.
"We saw a stray wolf walking just outside our territory a couple of times, we do not recognize them. Should we confront them?"
"Yes, ask what they are doing here, and bring them to me if there are any problems." He nodded and hurried out again. Lyr had left to get some control over her sons. I sat down on the sofa beside Reagan, she put her arm around me and brought me closer to her if that was even possible. "Did you discuss anything interesting in the meeting?"
I shook my head. "Just that Cassandra will be released from prison." Reagan despised that woman as much as me, so she was not happy with those news either. "I will make sure she stays far away from you." I smiled. "Thank you, Reagan, I think Lilith is making sure of that too. You two are the best" I kissed her a few times on the lips.
