It has been three months. The wedding is this morning, and I can't help but shake the feeling something important I forgot about. "Hey Sky? You okay?" I look up to Bec. "I don't know I feel like I forgot to say something. It's eating at me." My sister-in-law looks puzzled looks at me confused. "Could it happen to be you forgot to invite some one from your old pack?"

"Girls someone would like to speak to Skylar." Becca smiles and exits the room her wedding dress trailing behind her. As soon as her dress's trail disappears my adoptive mother enters the room. My eyes widen. My back pedals seem to give out on me as I fall down. Being only in my robe I feel vulnerable. Everything comes back to me now.

"Wait. Alice was from your pack? The same pack that kidnapped me?" Taylor nodded her head. I bit my lip. "Do you know who Alice's original mate was?" She shakes her head, and I curse. I get up and walk to the book of packs section. If her mate was of high power, then he would be in here with her name beside his. My finger scrolled down the list. I let out a sigh of relief when I find his name.Following the line to the right I look for her mate. Alice Stanley my adoptive mother. The book drops out of my hands, and I back away. My mouth is in an "O"position.

"Skylar? What- what's wrong."

"H-her m-mate wa-was..." I never finish my sentence. Instead I run outside to find my mother. I found her in the garden. My feet pump as fast as they can, but I stop dead in my track when I smell something. Turning around the people emerge from the woods. Two people drop their guns and run straight for me. One looks vaguely like me, and the other an old man.

"You were mated to Xavier's dad,meaning Xavier is your son." She grins evilly pulling out a gun. "I had to going into hiding, so when the worker brought you to Harold's land I could get to you. It had been three days when I felt the worse pain, and I knew my mate was dead. From then on I plotted my revenge. When my son was old enough he would spray himself with the same spray I used for your father. Its smell like our mate to the person's whose DNA was put into the bottle. To you it was like meeting your mate. Your Alpha thought he met his second chance mate. Let me tell you I tried killing you so many times, but every time the mangy mutt himself would interrupt. When he marked me I became weak and submissive to him,but when you left I knew then I would be free. Your dad wanted to go look for you, but I held him back. That idiotic son of his wouldn't let you go.

'I tried my best to spilt the search, but then they found you. Then couple days later the pain of my son dying hit me. You don't get the pain I have gone through because of you. Know one knows the pain. So I will make them understand the pain. You parents will feel the pain of losing a child for good, and your mate will be seething in pain." A sick grin grew across her face.

As she told me her reason I tried my hardest to get through to someone put nothing happened. "Oh don't even try. Those wine glasses they literally had labeled for the new brides were just a give away. Did you know there is a mixture you can make to where the wolf falls asleep?" She pulled out the vial. "They will wake up of course. Sadly in your case you and it will be dead." She cocked the gun back. Opening her mouth she was interrupted.

Alpha Gray jumped into the room. "Alice don't do this." She pulled out a second gun out of her back pocket. She glared at Harold."How'd you know?" Harold pulled a perfume bottle out of his back pocket. "You forgot to put this on, so I have been on my toes." Alice cursed under her breath. You could hear footsteps pounding against the ground as the Alice tried to figure something out. At the door way people filed in. Most were security then you had my family and friends. Shawn, Taylor, Aaron, Becca, Trevor, UncleHenry, Mother, Father, and finally Scott. They got into the room when Alice screamed, "Anyone else enters this damn room these two are dead." Alpha Gray growled.

"You will not kill my family." Alice grinned sickly at him, "She not your family. I remember when we found her you didn't want her."He snarled at her. "That means nothing. I took her in. You hid the true her from me. Every time the Royals would come over you made sure we were gone." His voice grew deep, and his eye pitch black. "You lied." She smiled.

"To bad you are too late." Harold looked at me. "I am sorry Skylar. That I didn't want you at first that is true, but I love you now you're like a daughter to me." My father growled. Mean while tears fell from my face. My Alpha and somewhat dad didn't want me. He wanted me dead.

Alice yawned. "I am getting tired of this bull. May we continue so I may finish my mission?" She aimed the gun at me and fired. I moved at last moment. The bullet barely missed my head. I heard the screams ofAlice and another gunshot. Scott was at my side in a second. "Are you okay?" My hand patted myself down. I sighed in relief when I realized I was not hurt."

"Skylar get over here!" I could tell that voice from anywhere, Shawn. I got to my knees and saw Harold on the ground. Shawn was gripping his right hand. I crawled to his left. "Dad, daddy please don't leave me," my voice croaked. Shawn was in tears as was I. The man I saw as my dad was dying right before my eyes. Blood ran from the sides of the mouth. "Shawn you know what to do." He coughs, "We prepared for this." Shawn nodded. My father's head turned towards me. "Skylar. Don't cry this is your wedding day. I'll be fine." He begins to cough up blood. "Please be happy for me." His head lays down and his eye glaze over. His wheezing becomes short. "I see her. I see Julia."Shawn cries. "Go to her dad." Soon his breaths are no more. I hug him. "No daddy, come back. You can't leave me. I looked up to you. Please don't leave me!" I banged on his chest as Shawn gathered me up in his arms together we cried. Scott and Lila had tears of their own. My brother held a jealousy aurora. He wanted to be the brother figure that Shawn was to me. My father looked at my dad. His eyes were saddened. I looked up to my new and real family, "I am sorry. I know you're my dad, b-but..."I couldn't speak tears filled my eyes. "He taught me everything... he helped me grow up with Shawn." My dad sits behind Shawn and I gathering us up in his arms. Together we cry. How could this happen?

Everyone joins in. Soon when I ran out of tears everyone was rushed out of my room. We went on with the wedding. I was to protest, but Shawn was right it was my dad's last wish. They powdered up my face. Fixed my makeup threw on my dress and I was ready. My father's body had been removed. I can't help but feel a little bit of empty. Becca has tried to get me to speak, but nothing came out. She snuck up behind me and jumped. "WE ARE MARRYING OUR MATES! HE MET HIS DEAD MATE! LETS GO GET MARRIED BITCH!" I can't help but let out the smallest laugh. He met his mate the woman he never shut up about. I was happy for him. A smile grew on my face thinking of him and Julia running around in a field of grass together.

Becca did a dance around the room pumping her fist in the air. "I got her to smile," She sang, "We are getting marriedieeee, I got her to smiliieeee." I put my hands to my ears and laughter filled the room.
"Okay Bec we get it. Now come on it is about time." She grinned at me and straightens her dress. At the doorway my dad met us. He is to lead Becca and I down the row. This is my life.Now no more of Xavier, Addison, or Alice just Shawn, Becca, Scott, and I; this was my life. As the doors opened, Scott's eyes and mine met, and I was assured.This is how it is supposed to be. My smile grew as we lead the way. I answered the question that haunted me my whole life. Who am I?

I am the Queen of wolves. I am Scott's mate. I am me.
