I pull myself along through the woods. Jake walks ahead of me. He didn't turn wolf since I can't. He offered to turn and let my ride his wolf, but I declined.

I needed this walk through my woods to clear my mind like it always had. I don't need the powerful feeling I feel when I ride his wolf. I could never be Artemis I am a weak human. Slowly I'm breaking but when I shatter I pick up my pieces. I don't know why I care so much I mean I thought I was human my entire life. I huff.

Maybe it's because I always knew my wolf was there and I miss her voice. Where could she have gone when I gave her away? Is she alive? Does she hate me? I was supposed to save us both not just me. I know why these thoughts plague me because she was part of me and that day I didn't realize I was losing a part of me, a voice I need to hear.

Even though I still hear voices in my head they don't help me. They just remind me of my past and failures, but haven't these failures made me strong and taught me a lesson I needed. My mind wonders to Stacy and Luke. They deserve to be together. I don't understand their story and I may never, but I know they should be together like Jake and I. I don't think I could live without Jake.

I'll keep my promise I'll find away to help Luke get her back. He helped me so I most do the same in return. I haven't seen Luke since I was returned to Jake. I hope he's okay. To think about it I haven't seen Jamie either since we heard the arrival of the Council what will they do to us? "Anne?" I ran straight into his back so caught up in my thoughts I didn't notice he stopped walking. I gasp looking around.

The golden chairs, the stage, and the podium just like my dream. I look around noticing a few people I know. Luke, Jamie, James and Marvin. Then I look to the far end of the dark wood table they sit at and there sits Stacy and Anthony. I notice Jakes tense body. I reach out and put my hand on his back and he relaxes.

He turns towards me smiling. "Alpha, Luna come sit." A man with golden eyes and dark brown hair motions to a chair at the table where everyone sits. I notice the tense bodies of my friends.

"Come Anne." Jake grabs my hand pulling me to one of the chairs and I immediately sit. The man smiles ruthlessly. "You will be punished." He leans toward me and whispers then backs away going to one of the golden chairs on the stage. Other members join him mostly mean expect one short girl with striking red hair that rolls in curls down her back.

The girl turns toward us and smirks. Her eyes grow red and she smiles at Jake hungrily. Which causes me to growl. Growl?! What the heck?! Jake turns his head towards me.

She narrows her eyes at me. "Anne." Luke hisses at me as I stare at her ignoring Jakes starring. I push him back with my hand which makes the girl smile genuinely. "A women who can control her man." She chuckles her eyes turning from red to a golden color.

"I like it. Suits your personality Anne. I would discipline her Alpha." She winks and Jake smirks. He puffs his chest out and raises his head. Arrogant Alpha's. I roll my eyes. He grips my hand. She takes a seat on what appears to be a golden throne matching the color of her eyes. "You'll be a perfect King." I hear her mutter. Jakes gaze never leaves her.

I feel jealously. But I shake my head making it go away. She's not my competition and I trust Jake. I look around trying to see if I see Alex from my dream, but I don't. I relax a little in my seat.

But my heart flutters as I can swear I feel his presences. How in the world can I feel his presences? I've never known him? Then something catches my eye the patch on the red heads robe, a wolf with red eyes with a moon wrapped around it. I look around the woods now seeing chairs step up with other supernatural beings.

They sit quietly holding their breaths. Terrified I can feel it. I turn my head back to the council where other members have joined straightening books on a small table in front of their tall golden chairs.
