Raven Hood

Chapter forty eight

"I now pronounce Emma Watts, or better known as Raven Hood as the Alpha of the Silver Moon Warrior pack". 

I feel tingles run through my veins. A feeling of power surges through me. I can literally feel myself getting stronger, wiser, better. 

The ceremony reminded me of a wedding. We had cake and food and drinks and everything. I shifted after the ceremony and let me tell you it hurt like crazy. It was a replay of shifting for the first time. Anyway we were all sitting around a fire.

The fire was lit at exactly midnight in the night of a full moon. Very few people know what that means. The moon goddess's magic made the fire turn blue. It wouldn't work at any other time but midnight on a full moon. So the blue flames licked at the logs and blue ash drifted into the sky. It was bright because of the fire and the very bright moon. The stars were clearly visible and there was not one cloud in the sky. It didn't matter there was a slight breeze. We werewolves can handle it.

It's hard to know the right time to do something you know everyone wants but at the same time is dreading it. I too am dreading the moment. I don't know how male wolves do it. I have to BITE my friends and soon to be pack members in the shoulder and I know it will hurt them.

My wolf is telling me to hurry up and I'm about to announce I'm going to do it but then suddenly I smell something. With my heightened senses, I can also hear them tramping through the woods. They are werewolves. They must know that this is pack territory because I 'marked' my territory earlier. My wolf is fighting with me. I let out a low deadly growl. All eyes snap to me. Where I'm flicking in and out of control.

"Emma"?

"Intruder", I growl my eyes black.

I clench my fists trying to gain back control. But while I was getting stronger so was my wolf. She wanted to dominate us.

"It's okay Em, let her take control to sort out the rouges", Liam yells.

-listen to him- my wolf growls.

I slip into the back of my mind and watch through my eyes. I can't do anything. I just sit watching feeling utterly useless.

"Liam and Louis follow me. Rosa, Greyson, guard the mansion. Go"! I command.

Well my wolf commands. I shift and howl into the sky. My howl so loud and strong every wolf within 20 miles would bow their heads in respect. No doubt the intruder/s will be doing also.

My wolf runs into the forest. Quickly followed by Liam and Louis's wolves. I pause raising my snout into the air. I take a big sniff and bolt towards the now running intruders. The intruders are in a clearing, looking around them.

They look scared so my wolf toys with them a bit. Like how a cat plays with a mouse before it eats it. I growl and move making the bushes rustle around me. They whip around. I quickly backtrack and come so I'm facing the back of them. My wolf decides that's enough. She leaps out and pushes both intruders onto the ground. By now Liam and Louis have caught up.

The rouges are face down in the dirt. Both my front paws on either of their backs holding then there.

"Uhh Emma"?

I growl silencing Louis. He lowers his head. I nod to him. The guys on the ground are trying to get free probably now I'm distracted, or maybe cause they learnt I'm a girl. Either way it was a foolish choice. Do they not sense my power? Do they not know my wolf will get mad if underestimated? I shove them into the ground harder and they freeze.

Smartest choice they've made the whole time. They lower their heads and whine. I get off them and shift. I'm still in my clothes.

"Shift"! I demand handing them shorts.

They nod and take the shorts. They walk away their heads at the ground and tail between their legs. They emerge seconds later.

"What are you doing on my territory"?

"We were told to meet someone here".

I growl.

Who else was on my land?

"Who"?

"Emma Watts".

My gaze softened.

Oh, these were the guys...

Mike and Timothy. That's probably what Louis wanted to tell me. I'm such an idiot.

"You're Mike and Timothy"?

They nod.

"Then I'm Emma Watts".

Their eyes widen.

"We prank called an alpha"?

"I wasn't an alpha then, but I am now. And since your rouges. Would you like to join my pack"?

"Yes please miss Watts".

"Please don't call me miss it makes me feel old".

"Yes Emma".

"Follow me", I say.
