Xander took me to a house on the border of the packs territory. It was quite here and odd.
It was a small wooden cabin and miniture windmills were placed around the small garden. Tribal beads hung from the veranda's ceiling. A red hammock stood at the front of the house. As we neared the door, I saw a bowel of pennies covered by algae. This place was creepy. Every step we took on the porch made the floors creak. I was behind Xander and he turned around slightly towards me before opening the door.We headed inside. The wooden walls were engraved with emblems of packs and shades of the moon. Dust covered the floors and several couches had dusty, thick quilts on them. A small round, wooden table stood in the middle of the room with a clear crystal pendant attached to a chain on it. Four cushioned chairs with oak arm rests were pushed into the table.
Xander ushered me to sit down.
A slim lady appeared. She had brown skin and she seemed to be around her 50s. She was dressed in a black dress and she wore many beaded jewellery.
This was eerie. The whole place looked like an abandoned home you'd find in a horror movie.
"Welcome children. It's nice to finally meet the royal Luna." She held her hand out and I shook it.
"We haven't performed the ritual yet. She is not a luna-yet. ", Xander scoffed.
The moon teller smiled politely.
"You are still so very stubborn just like when you were a child, Xander. What can I do for you two today? ", she asked.
"She is the daughter of Alpha Baxtor. We need you to tell us if she is on par with her wolf side.", he replied.
I felt weird sitting their and letting him do all the talking for me.
"Kathrine and Baxtor's daughter?My how fate has gotten us into a knot. Your parents were strong leaders child. Very kind to everyone. ", she smiled.
She knew my parents.
Of course she knew your parents. She was the royal moon teller.-grace said.
I mentally rolled my eyes.
"Let's begin. Hold out your arms and join hands. ", Xander, The moon teller and I formed a circle while sitting around the table. She closed her eyes for a moment and opened it again.
"You can let go now. ", was all she said. She handed me the crystal pendant.
"Hold it in your palm and answer truthfully. If you lie, the pendant will glow. If you tell the truth it will stay the same. ", she nodded.
"You met someone a few days ago. Who was it? ", she spoke. How did she know?
Xander faced me. He was angry.
"Relax Alpha. It was a woman. ", she replied sensing his concern and anger. He relaxed a bit.
"Her name was Serena. I met her in the north tower. She gave me this. ", I showed her the necklace.
I was telling the truth.
"But you didn't meet her physically. Your wolf did. She was a moon teller. She resides in the rays of moonlight. She is not of our world. She comes to those of pure heart and those who are in danger.She saved your life for some reason by warning you about your circumstances. She saved you because you have a purpose, child. You will bring about change. ", she said at glared at Xander for the last part.
"Circumstances? ", I asked.
"Did you have a near death experience lately. Maybe that's why she deemed it fit to meet you. ", she said.
The tub!
"I wouldn't say-", the pendant glowed and it burned my skin. Xander and The moon teller looked at the pendant and me.
"I did. A few weeks back... I wanted to end everything. Alpha Jacob found me at the palace gardens when he came to see Xander and he hit me and threatened me not to reveal my identity or else he'd kill me. Liam and Storm saved my life. I was out for 2-3 hours...but I'm fine now, I swear. "
The pendant glowed and burned my skin. I whinced.
I'm telling the truth!
"What else drove you to slit your wrists in the tub? ". She knows I slit my wrists!
Xander tensed up. He was trying to controll his anger.
I looked down again not looking him in the eyes.
"Xander and Lyra... the mate bond? ", I said softly. He had wolf hearing so he'd hear anyway.
"The mate bond was taking it's toll on you. You two must not try to avoid the bond. Give in or one of you will pay dearly. ", she said wisely.
"I ended things with Lyra... ", Xander replied straightforwardly. I instantly looked up at him but he was looking at the moon teller.
"Hence, Rebecca has been able to find her way. She was able to break free of the omega rank on her own strength. It caused the alpha gene to resurface.", she replied.
"Miranda. What else? ", that was her name. Xander asked.
"Dark days are coming but I can't tell for sure what will happen. You two must accept each other so that you both can fight this wave of pain together. You are both powerful but together you are unstoppable.", Miranda replied glaring at us.
"Your fear must subside. Fear of your past and your uncle will hold you back, Rebecca. ", Miranda spoke.
I shifted in my seat a bit. She knows so much about me and i know nothing about her. I nodded.
"One more thing. I sense restlessness within your wolf. She is tired. ", Miranda spoke.
"Well she's been having dreams-", Xander spoke.
"Dreams? What kind of dreams. ", Miranda asked curiously.
"It's always the same. My uncle would would appear and he'd hurt me... my parents dead bodies appear too. I'm screaming out for help but no one can hear me... ", I said sadly.
The pendant glowed and Miranda watched it as it burned my skin.
"Seeing your uncle after all these years sparked an awakening. It is also a warning that you must be vigilant. Both of you must be, what else are you not telling me about you dreams? ", she glared at me curiously.
The dreams about Xander.
"That's all-", the pendant glowed and it burned me. I whinced.
"I am trying to help you, Child. You must be honest. "
I inwardly scoffed. Do I really have to say this.?
I glared at Xander awkwardly and he raised an eyebrow.
"You must tell me. ", Miranda spoke.
