As you cast your eyes upon our pack, you realize your out of luck. The twins, Griffan and Damarias rule these woods and you will not come and escape. You came to feast your eyes and knowledge of our sacred secrets. You will be torn apart by both rul...
I hear Damarias whisper over to me that people are near, I tense sniffing around. Then it hit me, the sweet aroma of my mate. I've never meet or seen my mate and the ritual was going to happen soon so I entered a shadow heading back to the hideout of our pack.
"Dakarai!" I shout out in the house. "Hello?" I ask at the base of the stairs. Still no answer. I walk past the stairs to the door leading to the basement, it was cracked open. I summon a black dagger from my own power and head down the stairs with stealth.
The basement was a cellar type room with crates and barrels full of potion supplies. On the back wall is an entire potions lab set filled with tubes and vials filled with various colors of liquids. In the center of it all sits a black hooded figure mixing and moving bottles.
I slowly crept up behind the suspicious character preparing to knife them. As soon as I flipped my weapon the figure turned around and knocked the blade out my hand in a swift movement. In a frenzy I knocked the hood off to reveal a light skinned, silver colored eyed, curly haired boy.

"Dakarai!" I exclaimed, " What the hell are you doing down here?!". I tried linking to my twin but she put the walls up.
"Well I tried calling you and Dee after school but no one was picking up, so I thought you guys were too busy to do the potions for the ritual tonight, so I took matters into my own hands." He held out three sealed vials filled with glowing white and gold liquid.
" I was calling your name upstairs though." He picks up his earbuds that were hanging on his shirt. " Okay, so you've been down here the whole time?"
He nods. "Wassup Bitches!" We both lift our heads and that sweet aroma hit my nose. "Hand me the vials. I'mma go to the ritual site and set up. Get rid of him." I say pointing up.
I cast a spell using my energy and walk through the shadows to get to a flower field. In the center of the field is a long table that had red cloth going down it. That's where the sacrifice is going to go while we drink the potions.
The potions are to make us renew our immortality and make our forest grow and live longer. It also keeps the unwanted out. My siblings and I must do this ritual every 5 years. We didn't used to do this but after our parents death the forest grew dark. I put the potions in order and I feel two hand go around my face and cover my eyes. Tingles erupted where our skin met.
"Mate?" I gasp in shock. My mate grabs me by the shoulders and turns me around but I keep my eyes closed so the mate bond doesn't fully start. " Um, so do I know you? Like personally?"I said fetching for clues.
" Yeah, I'm in 3 of your classes. I've known we were mates for about a year." He replies. He voice silky and everything just flows. He was half a foot away from me and my senses were in overdrive. My eyes were struggling to keep closed and not reveal my mate. He sounds so familiar too.
" How is that possible?" I question and lift an eyebrow. I hear him shift feet and he comes a little bit closer.
"Well, I'm a year older than you and your twin. On my 18th birthday, it was first period and a chocolate and rose scent filled my senses. I looked around until I saw this beautiful tanned skin girl with hazel eyes. Her silky black hair with silver ends flowed down her back. She was laughing at a joke said by a boy that sat next to her. She turned around to face me and I felt it. My half of the connection had started." He explains.
The suspends was killing me. I finally opened my eyes to see Zander, a wolf from the West Pack.
