“Shut up! No one asked for your opinion, fucking whore!”
“Nathalia, what is it this time?” The Alpha gritted his teeth, visibly irritated.
“I saw her seduce my man,” Nathalia snapped.
“Man? What man?” he asked, creasing his brow in confusion.
“The Alpha King. She was all over him when we were in the hall. She even wore this rag to get his attention!” Nathalia screamed, ripping my floral dress instantly and kicking me so hard that I fell on my face.
My eyes flashed with anger as my lips tasted blood.
Not this time, bitch.
I let my emotions overtake me as I growled at Nathalia, challenging her to a fight. She didn’t waste time and pounced on me, tearing the rest of my gown. Good thing I wore underwear.
I launched at her, striking her hard on the face and scratching her with my sharp nails until blood gushed from her skin. Nothing else mattered-not even the punishment I would receive afterward. I was beating the hell out of Nathalia, and I would enjoy every moment of it.
Before anyone could separate us, I sat on her, delivering a series of punches to her battered face before scratching her body. A push from her sent me crashing to the floor, and some guards pinned me down.
I let out a gasp when Nathalia howled, shifting into her wolf form before everyone. She cheated, knowing I couldn’t shift. She was definitely going to kill me in her wolf form.
Just as she was about to launch at me, I felt my bones shift. Maybe it was my broken ribs. I screamed as fur sprouted from my body. My teeth weren’t left out either, as sharp canines replaced them. My fingernails grew into long claws.
I stood on all fours, growling and howling louder than Nathalia. Gasps filled the room as everyone watched in shock.
No one expected this. Not even Nathalia thought my wolf could be bigger and more powerful than hers.
While her wolf was lean, mine was huge, towering over hers.
Did I just fucking shift?
This was the happiest day of my life!
Confusion soon overtook me as I glared at the color of my fur.
Silver-colored fur.
My eyes widened when I saw Nathalia’s fur color-dark as night.
In this pack, no one possessed a silver wolf except the Alpha and the Luna. Their offspring were supposed to have silver fur, just like them. I gasped in shock at the realization.
Was the Alpha’s mistress my biological mother?
Aurora
A frown settled on my face as I thought about it, and I almost slapped myself for my stupidity.
How could I doubt my biological mother because of a mere fur color?
You’re so dumb, Aurora. That’s why she hates you.
I sighed deeply, glancing at my mother, who stood frozen, watching me suspiciously.
Maybe if I were as smart as Nathalia, she would have shown me some care.
I shook off the sad thoughts creeping into my mind, blocking them completely before they could engulf me. As far as I was concerned, today was the happiest day of my life.
The day I shamed Nathalia by transforming into a gigantic wolf, more majestic than hers.
I marveled at my fur, which glittered like precious stones as the sun reflected off it. My jaw dropped as I got lost in the beautiful sight.
I could never get tired of watching it.
I wouldn’t mind shifting every day just to see my shiny fur.
A sharp pain suddenly interrupted my thoughts, a burning sensation behind my back.
It stung like the bite of a deadly scorpion. I hissed, clenching my teeth, refusing to let any tears fall.
No amount of pain would ruin my day.
But I was wrong.
The pain intensified rapidly, spreading over the region above my waist.
Confusion hit me hard as I felt the strange sensation spreading, forming symbols. As much as I tried to follow the movements in my mind, I couldn’t make out what the symbols were.
In the blink of an eye, deafening screams tore from my mouth in waves as I collapsed to the floor, gasping for breath.
What was happening to me?!
I wasn’t allowed to recover as a sunset orange glow emanated from my back, where the strange symbols rested.
It burned so badly that I felt as though I was being skinned alive. It was like someone had poured salt into my bleeding wounds.
I lay on the floor, helpless and whimpering, watching the glow from my back connect to the Moon in a strange way before fading away, like it had never happened.
“You’ll be fine, Aurora,” a voice in my head sympathized.
I jolted up weakly, glancing at the shocked faces of the people around me as I searched for who spoke.
The voice was strange. I had never heard anything like it before. Despite the numerous people in the mansion, I could distinguish their voices.
“Don’t be afraid. It’s Rue, your wolf,” the voice sounded again, clearer this time, sending chills down my spine.
I have a wolf!
A smile slowly began to play on my face when Nathalia found it to be the perfect moment to pounce on me, clawing at me until I bled.
It hurt that I couldn’t fight back. The transformation had drained my energy.
“Get away from your sister, Nathalia!” The Alpha’s voice thundered, but I could sense confusion clouding his mind. What was he confused about? His daughter beating me to a pulp while I lay, slowly losing consciousness, without him intervening?
What a good father, I scoffed inwardly.
I groaned in pain as Nathalia threw me on the floor like a sack of potatoes. I could feel my ribs cracking.
“She’s got the pack’s tattoo,” the Luna gasped in shock, pointing at the symbol on my back with wide eyes.
The pack’s tattoo? What was she talking about? Why was everyone so shocked by my transformation?
With the last of my strength, I turned my head to catch a glimpse of the symbol.
“Holy shit!” I cursed, my eyes widening in surprise.
How the hell did the pack’s tattoo end up on my back?
My head ached terribly as I tried to think of a possible way the tattoo appeared.
“Everyone, get out!” The Alpha commanded. His tone was filled with authority and danger.
Confusion hit me like a ton of bricks as I watched the perplexed faces around me, even my mother was not exempt.
Except she looked like she was about to pass out. Her fear consumed her, and I could almost taste it. Her heart pounded like a thousand war drums.
Something wasn’t right. I had never seen my mother so frightened.
“Eve, Nathalia, Ingrid, Aurora, Valerie, stay behind.” He released a tense breath, swallowing the bile in his throat as his chest rose and fell in anticipation.
