I walked through the corridors of castle. The whole castle was draped in the colors of joy. Colors of celebration. The Alpha ball was the biggest event of the werewolf community held once each year on turning of leaves.

At the brink of Autumn it held every year and I just stay in my room avoiding anything and everything as much as I can. But this year is different and I have to be present because I promised.

I shied as I walked at the academy to start my training under my brother and Xander. Both training because neither Destiny nor Paige is in position of training me now. Destiny is ready to pop any time and Paige well the kids are too much for her to handle.

"So are you ready Amy?" Ronan asked me. "Yes I am ready brother" I said stopping his punch in the mid air.

Oh I have this special power. Power to heal someone. Power to take away someone's pain. I always known I had this powers for a reason but I don't know what are they yet. I kicked Xander who was gaining on me from back. And then landed on my feet perfectly. I smirked. "You both are getting old daddies" I mocked.

They lunged at me together and I just side stepped. Then I kicked in the back of Ron while Holding Xander's wrist twisting it to a point where I could hear a slight snap but he didn't even buzzed. Ronan was about to attack me when I heard a small stop.

I turned around to find Paige and Destiny smirking at me. "So you beat up the big boys did you Amy?" Paige asked. "Can't say no Ma after all I am your shadow." I said and she laughed. "I tell you a secret I used to kick your brother's ass all the time" Ronan groaned at this. "Don't remind me of that again little mate"

I like the endearment they used for us. But I never think I can hear anything coming from anyone's mouth anyway. Because of it I feel sad and lonely all the time. I looked at them and I felt this strange kind of pain inside of not having a mate.

Why my mate is a jerk or may be he is not a jerk he is a cowered or he wanted to have one night stand with me. I am ten years younger than him anyway. Oh sorry nine years younger.

"We are here to borrow her because she is attending the Alpha's ball tomorrow we need to get her dress and treatments she need to look at her best because she is a Princess nevertheless. A royal and she needs to be dressed like one" My eyes narrowed at Destiny.

I hate when she called me a Royal. I am not a Princess and I don't want to dress like one either. I hate dresses and I hate the ball gowns but yet again I am going to be forced into wearing one.

I wished I just stayed with him my high school crush but then he have to find his mate and move away. And he was an alpha too. He needed his mate and I needed mine but alas we not always get what we wish for do we?

I know I was not going to get a mate very soon but a ball is so much exciting. I almost never been to one. Destiny pulled me to her and said "Come on Princess let's make you irresistible in everyone's eyes." I groaned but followed them.

The dress shopping was tiring and not to mention with all those guards following us like men in black. I had a hard time to smile or enjoy. Paige said it was for our protection but the thing is I can take on any wolf thrice my size effortlessly. No I am not bragging. I just trained hard enough for this place.

The ceremony will be held soon in which Paige with step down from the position of lead female warrior and I will step in. Yes I cannot help but smile that one thing will happen in the future that will be right. I am happy for that. Finally I will find my own identity and it will be not because I am a Princess. I hate when everyone calls me that.

"Princess is that dress ok?" I was bought out of my thoughts by the hypnotic voice of the shop attendant. I hate it. I hate the title. I don't want to be Princess I want to be fighting in front lines with all the wolves. The leader of the Female team of the elite forces is no joke.

I decided to buy the Grey satin gown which is not exactly like the poofy and heavy ball gowns. But nevertheless it is something I look good into and that only matters now.

I nodded at the soap attendant managing a small smile on my face. She smiled back at me. "Shall I pick some accessories for you?" She asked. "Yes go ahead and take your time." I said. She nodded hopping along the shop with smile on her face.

I looked her picking up the things to match my gown and then coming back to me. I chose a small pendent and a stud earing set. Also the silver high heels and silver clutch purse to match. Once I was done I decided to check on my companions.

I saw both were posing for each other not having a care in this world. Is that means to be happy? Will I ever become this much care free. Knowing that what I am capable of I am a constant target of different wolves and rogues alike. I was wanted by many but I never been attacked I wonder why.

I know as Mate of Daniel I was official Luna of his pack but I never going to accept that position no matter what his Beta Jarred and Gamma Christen says. It would be better if I just leave the command permanently at Jared's hand. He will be a good leader. It is a possibility.

And I also have a choice to have a chosen mate. Since Daniel didn't rejected me officially nor he accepted me I think I can start to look for different spectators from now on. I can do it. Only if my heart and my wolf Selene agrees.

She was heart broken after the incident. She only comes only if I am in great Danger. Otherwise she keep herself hidden in corner of my mind. Where she mourns for her mate still.

I felt her stir and becoming alert for some reason.

Rogues in the territory

"Rogues" I shouted and took a protective stance over Destiny and Paige. But my heart and mind both says that they are not the target but I am. I felt it in my bones. They want to use me for something. And that is something terrible. I too don't know the extent of my powers.

And that makes me afraid most. Afraid of what I can do and what i am capable of. Most of it was how much I can hurt people. "Call Ronan" I shouted. I saw from the corner of my eyes the wolves trying to form a barricade around us.

"Destiny ma Stay hidden we have to protect the Royal heir at every cost." I said and Paige nodded. The royal guard arrived to escort them to the castle grounds and I decided to access the situation.

Ronan and Xander also arrived at the scenario. "Are you all right Aims?" Xander asked. "Peachy" I said. He nodded. I walked towards the Rogue I saw approaching Paige from behind. My claws lengthen and I let my wolf Celine take over.

"Let's get the show on the road" She said in a deep menacing voice. Running at the speed only she can posses slicing the Rogues throat.
