I guess that that would be a fairly quick way to get introduced to werewolves. Must have given him one heck of a heart attack as well. I cannot imagine the thoughts that must have been going through his mind as he watched the woman that he was dreaming about turn into a giant wolf."What did she look like?" I ask in awe."You don't remember do you?" He asks sadly.I shake my head at him. I can barely remember what my mother looked like in her human form. In her wolf form it is near impossible to remember her. I remember running with her through the woods in our wolf forms. There was a feeling of freedom and happiness that only a child can feel. Remembering what she looked like though, that completely eludes me."Well then, I guess I will describe her before I tell you my reaction to her. She was pure white. Every piece of her was whiter than any snow I have ever seen. The only part that was not, was each paw. Each paw was pure black. Where the rest of her was void of any and every co
I cannot imagine how much of a shock it must have been for him to find out about werewolves in this fashion. I was lucky enough to grow up knowing about them. The shock for me was the fact that I was also part witch. I might have come to terms with it now but I remember reading my grandmother's letter for the first time and learning that I was more than just a normal werewolf. I had been using some of my witch powers all along without ever realizing it. I just thought that I was an odd werewolf that could also turn into a cardinal. I did not know that I could turn into almost any animal with my magic.When I first got the letter from my grandmother saying that I was part witch, I was more than shocked to learn that the reason my parents had been killed was because of my existence. No, it was not my fault by any means, but it was still caused by the fact that I had even been born. The witches did not want a werewolf to also have witch powers. Not unless I were to allow them to brainwa
"So how long was it until you finally heard from her?" I ask him with a yawn.I have been so wrapped up in this story that I had no idea how late it is getting to be. It is almost dinner time and I am still sitting here listening. I can feel my exhaustion creeping up on me but I do not want him to stop. I want to hear the rest of the story before I fall asleep again."Not as long as I thought it might be but longer than I had hoped. I think I will finish this story some other time. You look exhausted and I have to go and check on the children. I have been gone much longer than usual today." Frank tells me.Nodding sadly, he walks over to me and kisses the top of my head like he used to when I was little. It is a little shocking since he has not done that in so long. Does he even remember that he used to do that regularly? Looking up at him, I have so many more questions but he is right about how tired I am. They can wait for another day if they need to."Thank you for telling me more
Once again, I manage to dream of my parents for the entire night. I get the amazing opportunity to see Frank seeing my mother transform for the first time as well as finally getting to remember what my mother looked like as a wolf. As soon as I saw her wolf form, I felt as if I had remembered it all along. Like all I had to do was unlock the part of myself that I shut down as a child and I would get to see her again. She really was just as beautiful as my father said she was. Her wolf form was massive compared to those around her. In the dark, her feet seemed to sparkle as if the stars themselves shown on her paws. The rest of her white fur really did remind me of snow. It had that same glittery reflectiveness that snow has. She positively shown when she turned into a wolf. When I woke up, it was with a smile on my face. Getting to see my mother in her wolf form after all of these years was quite a blessing. Now that I remember what she looks like, I can also remember more clearly r
Rand and Amora are sitting next to each other at the table today. Eric, Frank and Elle are all at the table with us as well. We have to decide when we are going to move if we want it done in a decent time frame. "I know that you want us to hurry and make a decision but I do not want to be hasty. I would like to make sure that we know what we are doing. This is going to affect us for the rest of our lives." Rand says."Yes it is. You already know that this is what you want to do so why are you dragging your feet now? The longer you stay here the more danger you are in. I cannot stay here with you forever. We have a pack of our own to get back to. Heck, we have a pup on the way that we have to prepare for." Dante says to him."I thought that nobody was in danger now?" Rand says with his brow raised in my direction."You know as well as I do that I cannot guarantee something like that if I leave. I can try to check in constantly but there is no way for me to make any guarantees if I am
In the end, since we do not have to worry about bringing food, Rand has decided that he only needs a couple of days to get everything around instead of the 4 that he was going to take. Thursday morning is now the time that we are planning to leave. Dante has instructed our pack that they will need to increase patrols and send them out further until we get closer. He also has some members, along with some of my witches, going towards the land that the Luminescence Creek pack is moving to, to do some scoping.He gave them specific instructions to make sure that there is nobody there that could pose a threat. They are also to make sure that they find the best areas for defense in case anybody does try something once they move there. The witches are going to set up temporary shelters for when we first arrive and we can do the rest shortly after.Overall, once everything is packed I think the main part of the planning is done. WE have the food, supplies and the people. Everything else is g
I ended up taking a nap for a couple of hours before going to help Frank with the kids. They do not understand what is g oing on so they are not really able to help get any of their stuff around. To be honest, they would not be much help even if they did understand. Chelsea is the closest to being helpful. She is trying at least. Any time that Frank grabs something to pack it up she tries to take it from him and beat him there. As helpful as she is trying to be it is only making it more difficult for Frank to get things around. The children are not able to carry anything so they will not be bringing much in the way of personal items. "Chelsea, I have an idea of how you can help me." I say getting down to her level."Really! What do you want me to do?" She asks excitedly."I am going to help Uncle Frank with getting things ready to go. If I tell you to grab something I want you to bring it to me and I will get it put up. Got it?" I ask her with as much enthusiasm as I can muster.She
"Laina, am I going to meet more kids when we get there?" Chelsea asks me during dinner. "Well, I am sure that there are plenty of kids there for you to get to know. I have training classes just for kids your age. When you become a teenager you will also take some survival classes. If you still want to train with us that is." I tell her with a smile. The entire pack including my group are all eating above ground for the first time since I got here. It took a bit of convincing but eventually I was able to get Rand to agree to allow us to eat up here with the others that are unable to go underground again. Might as well get the children used to it as well since we have been able to get everything packed up early and we are now leaving first thing in the morning. Now that Rand and Eric have finally fully jumped on board they are ready to go. "What if they do not like me?" She asks shyly. I cannot help but laugh at that. It is so hard to imagine somebody not liking this child. She real
