You stand, just behind Aphmau, as Donna finishes her "I Do". You drop your gaze. after Zane says the next line. You never liked the sight of a couple kissing. You glance at Garroth's empty seat.
Or...You thought it was empty. Sitting in place of the blonde headed guard, was a teen around 16 with shoulder length black hair. and red square glasses that sat in front of her light purple eyes. Wolf ears the same pale purple sprout from the top of her head.

She smiles at you and waves. Everyone gets up to go to the reception. Emmalyn starts to pull her along, but the girl stops to sniff the air. You try to shift around her with the crowd. You can hear what you assume is her voice, ring above the noise.
"A werewolf!" People turn towards her. "There's another werewolf here!" People laugh and some even point a Logan. The girl shakes her head. "No, no, not Logan! There's a female werewolf here!!!" You tense up. She sniffs the air again.
"I only smell the same smells as before." Logan puts in. You can tell he's trying his best to cover for you.
"That only means she's been here since you transformed!"
"Now that you mention it, Kawaii-Chan has smelt another werewolf. Kawaii-Chan just assumed that everyone knew that (F/N)-Chan was a werewolf." You freeze. Everyone turns. The girl steps forward and sniffs your arm. You pull it away from her. She blinks at you.
"Kawaii-Chan, I didn't want them to know that." You spit out. Kawaii-Chan blushes and suddenly becomes more interested in the pink ribbon on her tail. You tense, staring at Aphmau, waiting for her to say something, anything. Zane laughs coldly from behind you.
"So, what?" Aphmau asks. "You're a werewolf. I don't see the problem." You let out a sigh. "Now, if I'm not mistaken, we ARE at a wedding, aren't we? Well what are we waiting for? Let's celebrate!" She leads her people down to the plaza. People file onto the dance floor. You sit down and rub your temples. You still can't believe that had just happened. You could see Aphmau talking to Donna and Logan.
"E-Excuse me?" You turn to face the girl from before. She pushes her glasses up. "Um... You see, I've...Well, I've never really met another she-wolf before, and-"
"-And you want advice. Right?" You let the boredom seep into your words. "Well, I've never been one to turn down my own kind. What do ya' need kiddo?"
She's very nervous. "C-Could I see your wolf form?" She asks hopefully. You shrug, what had you got to loose? "Sure kid."
You shift your form. What used to be a beautiful woman with (E/C) eyes and (H/C) hair, was now a silk white she-wolf with pale green eyes. {Image} The girl gasps. Garroth picked a rather convenient time to show up. You pad up to him and rub against his leg.
"Wha- Oh." He pats your head. "Awe! Are you a stray?" Aphmau, who had seen you shift, comes up barley able to hold in a laugh. "So what made you show?" "Would you believe me if I said this wolf led me?" Aphmau shook her head. "Heh, fine. I realized I was acting childish." "Shhhhhhhhhhhh. Lets dance." She takes his sleeve and starts to pull him away. You find a corner and shoft back. You join them on the dance floor.

After what happened at the docks between Aphmau, Zane, and Garroth, you shift back into your wolf form. You follow Garroth quietly back to the guard tower. He turns suddenly, sword drawn. You tilt your head in a dog-like manner. He sighs and pats your head. "Did you follow me? You little renegade. You hungry? Come on in then." He leads you into the guard station. You'd been in here before of course, but everything was out of proportion now. You sniff the window sill you love to sit on. It reeks of your sent. And one other. Garroth's. Garroth returns a minute later with a piece of raw meat. He sets it on the floor and leaves the room again. You wolf it down {pun intended] and shift back before he returns. He jumps when he sees you. (F/N)? What are you doing here? And where did that wolf go?" You decide to mess with him. "What do you mean? You invited me in." He blinks confused. "I'd throw you a bone but I don't know howl you'll take it. Maybe if you make me some woofles for breakfast." Garroth still doesn't seem to get it.
"Ugh, Men are so stupid." You shift in and out of wolf form. Needless to say, he freaks out. I'll leave that out seeing as this is minimum cuss words. You fall, dying of laughter. Rolling around on the floor. He disappears to his room and returns a minute later with a spray bottle.
"Shoo," He says spraying you in the face. You blink and shove him away. He laughs and sprays you again. You shift to wolf, and jump on him. You knock him over and grab the spray bottle in your mouth. You make sure to puncture it with your teeth, leaking water into Garroth's tux. He tries to grab you but you hit him playfully with your paw and bolt for the door.
"Good night, (F/N)." He says smiling. You take off into the night towards your birch home.
