      Malcolm and I are so ecstatic right now. Watching our mate stand before her Elders who throw judgement and loath her over time. She was so amazing up there.

      "Our prefect Luna."

      I know she had little to no hope with them. On the drive here she kept saying she can handle not having the witches support. All she needed was the pack. And even though I would love for her to be all about the pack. I know deep down she will think, what if Luminis was still a part of her life. She will still miss them.

      "She'll be heart broken if she couldn't see Mable or Meredith again. And we would of been to blame."

      He's right. And I wouldn't blame her. After working so hard to not only get her family back. She works every hidden corner to keep her witch side alive. And if the Elders forbid her in doing so. I would blame myself for it. We couldn't have that. So while Elizabeth stood there. I sent prayer after prayer to Moon Goddess to let her keep them. I beg her to talk to her Ancestors and do not allow them to take anyone else from her. Not again. Relief wash over all our faces when it came true.

      Elizabeth, Meredith, and I made our way out the building. Chatting away with so many ideas we could achieve now. As we take our walk, Meredith gets a call. Her face soften and I sense Elizabeth's worry.

      "What is it?" Our mate ask.

      "Umm. We should wait for aunt Mable." Playing with her hands nervously.

      "Mery just tell me. Is something wrong? Because earlier aunt Mable was being weird and cryptic. What's going on? What aren't you two telling us?" I lay a hand on her shoulder. She sighs to a lighting of bond spark.

      Meredith look around, shifting her body. "Aunt Mable has more information to add. We'll wait. I swear we meant to tell you sooner."

      Elizabeth's chest tighten and I wrap my arms around her. Leaning into her ears. "Reason with them my little witch."

      She looks away hiding her anger. "Don't take their side." I give her a soft kiss to ease her.

      Mery calls a man over. "When you see Mable tell her to meet us on the north side. And find another 2nd degree to partner up with. We need to lock down the openings more. Make the shift." The man nod and rushes off with her demand.

      She gave me a scowl look. I didn't know I was starting. I quickly apologize. "Why did you tell that man to find another second degree? What is that?"

      "Babe. He was a second degree. He's just doing his job." Our mate says.

      Yet i'm still confuse.

      I hold my hand out in defense. "Okay excuse my dumbfound. I haven't known many witches. So this talk about degrees? I have no clue what you two are talking about."

      "Livy, you haven't explain to him?" Mery gasped.

      I completely sense something between us all. I was lost. I guess I may need to look up my witches history more. I should've known, my mate is a witch for Goddess sakes.

      "Sorry." She shrugs. "I didn't think I had to."

      "Ladies?" I said a bit annoyed.

      Meredith sighs. "Let's walk and talk." Pointing to the direction we are meant to meet Mable.

      "Okay start talking?" I say after the girls whisper to themselves.

      "It's easy to explain. Covens are run like your pack. We just call our titles differently. First degrees are like your maids and omegas. They hold small jobs around the community. Second degrees are basically like your deltas. They're like teachers, policemen and firemen. They have a very important part of the community. We have well rounded witches on second degree. Then lastly we have our most trusted members who are third degrees. They are kinda like Betas and Gammas. Highest titles, but we don't have just two. We have a few. They're the best of the best. They have train hard and proven their spot. Third degrees help run the coven. Making sure everything is going swell." Mery explains.
