Wolfsbane sat in front the dresser. He had me sit in a chair in front of him.

Again I was a little-scared being in front of a God again but Hadden kept reassuring me that I was fine.

Now there are many abilities that are gifted to Lunar Wolves, He began, We're going to start with the basics and move up to more advanced, understand?

I nodded, "What's first?"

He purred in approval, Your persistence is admirable, alright Lunar Wolf a Passive wave is the first thing we will practice.  

"A Passive wave?"

That is correct, Lunar Wolves are not meant to be fighters. If they are faced with a threatening situation, a Passive wave is meant to be used as a defense to make you seem less of a threat and more of an ally. 

"What do I have to do?"

I will let loose power that you will be overwhelmed by. The Wave is your own power radiating from your body by using passive thoughts. 

"So I have to think passive thoughts and power will come from my body and make wolves not attack me?"

Your use of words is very... simple, but yes.

"I'll take that as a compliment, let's start this then."

He took a stance and raised himself. I closed my eyes and began saying in my head, I am not a threat, I am not a threat, over and over.

A threatening pressure built on me and I was pushed back by its strong force and fell onto my back.

I groaned and sat up, Try again, Wolfsbane said.

I stood up and began again, Do not attack, I am no threat. I am not threat.

Once again I felt the power radiate from the God and onto me. And once again I was overpowered and fell down.

Again, he said.

I gritted my teeth, "Why isn't this working?"

He titled his head, When you learn to ride a bike, do you get it on your first try?

"No," I grumbled.

And when you don't put effort into a test do you expected to do well on it? Hadden added.

"No."

Then there is your answer. It will take practice and effort in order to achieve what you want. You must be patient though.

"Your starting to sound like my Dad."

Wolfsbane chuckled, I am a thousand-year-old God, you should expect I have much wisdom. Your father is very wise for his age. He was born to be a King.

"Everyone said I was born to be a Prince, guess I proved them wrong."

You were born to be you, Lunar Wolf.

I sat up, "Wolfsbane, did passive wave work with all Lunar Wolves?"

He paused for a moment, Yes, why?

"Why did all the Lunar Wolves die if they could use it?"

There was a sudden tension in the air. From both Wolfsbane and Hadden.

The wolves... were too angry, too vengeful, too bloodthirsty for the Passive wave to have any effect on them, Hadden said. He sounded sorrowful as he spoke.

"All my life I've read and heard that Lunar Wolves are not fighters, they're not meant to be in battles, they're not to be in war. They're never meant to be hurt."

You are correct Lunar Wolf, what is the point you are making?

I looked him directly in his red eyes, "What if I come across a wild animal in a forest, or a Vampire, a Werehyena, any other Supernatural creature that doesn't know or understands the importance of a Lunar Wolf, and I have to fight them. What do I do then?"

For the first time, he was silent, unable to answer my question.

"You are a God, you are powerful and immortal, please, I want you to teach me how to fight" I begged.

That is not a question I can answer now, He said after a moment, I will discuss this with my Mate, her decision will be final. For now, continue to practice the Passive Wave.

I nodded and walked over to sit on my bed, "Will I ever meet the Moon Goddess?"

Again he was silent, turned around and disappeared in a cloud of black smoke. 

"Thanks for answering the question" I mumbled.

He can't speak for the Goddess pal, Hadden said, What she does is her own choice, if she decides you can learn to fight, or if she lets you meet her, it's her choice.

I laid down and sighed, not moments later Mavvie walked into the room with Eliza, "Well see you later Eliza" he said then noticed me.

"Oh, Harvey I didn't know you were here."

He's with her again, I gritted my teeth. He said he'd stay away from her.

I know. He doesn't listen very much.

He waved Eliza goodbye and turned back to me only to frown, "What's that look for?"

"You said you'd-"

Mavvie interrupted me, "She doesn't have a mate and were only friends, there's nothing wrong with me being her friend, is there?"

I grumbled, "Well no."

"Then there isn't a problem, We like to hang out after the games and when she has free time," He smiled and sat down.

I knew he was lying. But he'd just keep lying if I kept asking. So I stopped.

"I feel kinda bad that I'm not watching the games with you guys" I admitted.

Mavvie shrugged, "Honestly nothing much is going on, Wolves compete, wolves win. And The Blue Waters Pack has kept the first place for a while. I think it's safe to say they'll win this year."

"Well don't jinx it!" I hissed.

He titled his head, "Why? Do you want them to win?"

I nodded crossed my legs together, "Of course I do. Eska says their Pack hasn't won the Games in years. And I mean years. So yes I want them to win, so her and her Pack can remember what this victory feel like."

My brother smiled, "It's strange to hear you speak this. You seem more mature."

"I was always more mature than you" I joked.

He shook his head, "No that's not what I mean. You seem wiser. Like an ancient wolf, is it a side effect of these Lunar Wolf abilities?"

"Perhaps. I never noticed any changes with me."

You have changed, Hadden murmured, In more ways than one.

I apologize for the absent lately. My Grandma has been moved into an Old Age Home and we've been trying to move out her stuff to sell the old house. So that has taken up a lot of time on my part and driving out of town all the time to visit her. It's died down a bit so I can focus in uploading these chapters on time now. Thank you for your patients and I will upload three chapters today just to make up for the lost.
I've entered this story in the Watty2018 so wish me luck and if you enjoy the story, vote o  the chapters. It really means a lot and helps me out.

~Thank you and have a wonderful day.
