I skipped a few more pages, looking for some important information in the dairy that would explain why someone would send me to the pack house to find it but I didn’t find anything, just random comments about how awful she felt about being in the pack and how she hated everyone except for Fenrir and few maids.
“It’s my 13th birthday today and the Queen threw a huge party” My mother said “I was forced into another stupid dress and paraded around like a trophy, showing off how great the King and Queen were for adopting me and ending the dragon war….”
Dragon war? I wondered, I’d never heard anything about a war with the dragons, I’d only ever been told about the war between the werewolves and Lycan’s
“The only upside was seeing mommy” I read on “I always forget how beautiful she is, I hated that she could only visit once a year, I cried and hugged her and begged to go home but she told me again that I needed to stay until after my shift and, molting and that I was safer with the King and Queen, I wanted to argue but I didn’t want to ruin our limited time together, and we went to perform the fire ritual alone which only made me miss home even more’
I didn’t understand any of this. How would my mothers presence in the pack end a war with the dragons, what’s a molting? Why couldn’t my grandmother visit my mother more?
I placed the first diary down and picked up the other one and flipped to a random page, there was nothing of significance in the first few pages, just random teen venting, complaining about being dressed up like a doll by the Queen, hating King Theo and a few crushes she had on boys in the pack but the next page I saw, made me pause.
“I feel so bad for Fenrir” She scrawled on the page “Golden boy Theo shifted of course but Fenrir didn’t, he hasn’t spoken to anyone since last night and the King’s enraged and screaming about disowning Fenrir for being usless and embarrassing him”
That’s so sad, poor Fenrir but then I remembered that he started a war and I felt a little less bad for him, was this why the war started, because he couldn’t shift and he was angry and lashed out?
“It’s been a few weeks since the failed shift and Fenrir still isn’t speaking” Another page informed me “And I’m worried that if I shift on my birthday, it will only hurt him more”
If she shifts? I skipped through a few more pages and my jaw dropped.
“WHITE!” She basically shouted off the page “I’m WHITE, the King and Queen are extatic, I sent mother a message but I know she’s going to be thrilled by my shift. The vision she had about the white Lycan ending the war was coming true and her plan to send me to live among Lycan’s had worked”
My mother was a white Lycan too, I was so happy that we shared a color.
I was excited that my grandmother had visions, that was such a cool power but I was confused, if my mother was the one who stopped the war with Fenrir then how come the twins didn’t know about it, how come they never knew of her at all, why had King Theo never mentioned her.
“I wrote to daddy again to beg him to come and get me” I read on “But he said I still couldn’t come home, I HATE HIM, why can’t I go home, I’ve shifted, I should be allowed to leave now but he said it wasn’t time for me to take the throne yet because I still hadn’t molted”
Throne? Was my mother from another royal family. Was there any other royal Lycan families?
“Fenrir said he was happy for me” I continued to read the page “But I could tell he was sad and felt more alone then ever, I wish I could do something to help him shift”
I skipped some pages again looking for more information.
“Fenrir and I have come up with a spell” I read the new entry “We’re going to try it tomorrow night during the blood moon to held give the spell more strength but nothing like this has ever been done before, and I’m scared it won’t work, I’m scared it will kill him, what if he dies, the King and Queen will destroy my tribe, but I have to try, I couldn’t let Fenrir try and kill himself again”
What? I felt a wave of pain for him, I must have missed the diary entry where she’d mention his suicide attempt, I’d have to read the diary properly when I had more time so I wouldn’t miss important information.
“I have everything ready” I looked back at the page “But I’m terrified, I’ve told Fenrir about my fears but he said he isn’t worried and that he trusts my powers…. PLEASE LET THIS WORK!”
I quickly flipped through page after page, looking for the Blood moon entry and stopped when I found what I was looking for
“IT WORKED!!’ She’d written down “IT ACTUALLY WORKED! Fenrir shifted, he isn’t a Lycan, that’s clear and he doesn’t have a Lycan inside of him but he can shift into a similar looking beast. We’ve called this beast a ‘werewolf’, we’re going to keep it a secret for now while he gains control. When he first shifted, he cut my arm accidentally but I managed to control him using my powers and made him shift back, it seems I have some level of control over him, probably because I used my blood to make the spell work but I can’t be sure’
WHAT? I froze, my mother created the first werewolf. I remember asking Alpha Troy once how our kind was created and he’d told me a very powerful Queen had been the mother of our race and began the war to protect us from the Lycan’s..
I couldn’t breath, she’d begun the war, that can’t be true, the twins told me it was Fenrir but perhaps my mother was by his side, had he been the one she’d married, was he my father.. no.. he couldn’t be, I wouldn’t be mated to the twins if we were blood related.
Was this what the note person wanted me to know, that my mother had created the werewolves, that she started the war, why would it start a war in the first place, had the King and Queen been so furious at what my mother had done that they’d tried to hurt their own son so my mother needed to protect him? I needed more information.
I began to flip through more pages but the car halted, and I looked up to see we’d arrived back at the tower and I knew my desire for more information would have to wait for now.
MADELYN’S POV
I pulled off my belt and gathered up my items as I pushed open the car door, I noticed that the driver Rick had gotten out of the drivers seat and looked uncomfortable.
“Oh” I said awkwardly “Did you want to get the door for me?”
“No, it’s alright Luna” He smiled nicely at me “I usually do it but if you prefer to get it then that’s okay”
“I’m sorry, I’m not used to having a driver” I felt so stupid right now “I will let you get the door for now”
“Thank you Luna” He smiled and climbed back into the driver’s side while Dane and I headed down the path towards the front doors of the tower
There were people everywhere, all rushing around and talking quietly, but them being busy didn’t stop them from pausing and taking glances at me but I lowered my gaze and rushed to the elevator and Dane pressed the button for the office suites
Once we walked out of the elevator, I turned and asked Dane if I needed to go to the receptionist and ask permission to go into the floor but he laughed and shook his head.
“Luna, you outrank everyone in the room” He reminded me, and we walked past the reception area and down a hallway
“Evet” I waved and walked down the hallway towards her and her friend in a pretty white and purple dress
“Well if it isnt’t my new fav cousin” Evet hugged me “What’s all this dusty stuff?”
“Oh, just some old books and a picture of my mom”
“Really” She said eagerly and reached for the photo frame “May I?”
“Sure”
Evet looked at the picture and her face paled a little “This is your mother?”
“Yes” I said happily “Wasn’t she beautiful?”
“She was” Evet smiled and placed the photo back down on top of the books “Are you busy right now, I’ve got time for a coffee if you want to join me?”
“I don’t know” I said awkwardly and looked at Evet’s friend “Aren’t you spending time with your friend”
“Friend?” She asked in confusion and looked at the girl ‘Oh… no, this is Charlotte, she’s my personal maid, she’s more of my warden, not a friend”
Charlotte laughed and shook her head “I wouldn’t have to be a warden if you could arrive somewhere on time”
“Court duties are boring” Evet complained before turning back to me “Where’s your maid, give her your things to take home, and you can come have a coffee?’
“I don’t have a maid”
‘The twins haven’t assigned you a maid yet?’ Evet looked outraged and stared at me with her hands on her hips
‘I don’t think so’ I shrugged ‘But I don’t need one’
“Of course you do” She exhaled as if this personally offended her “You’re new to the pack and a maid could help you navigate everything, have the twins even given you any instructions on the rules of court or how to address those of lower rank, it’s very different to a werewolf pack”
“Yes, your grandmother showed me just how different it is here”
“Let me guess’ Evet smirked “She punished you”
I explained about Koda getting hit but Evet just nodded “Yeah, she’s very old schooled” She told me “We’ve all been on the end of her punishments over the years but back on topic, you need a maid…. you… girl”
Evet turned to a girl cleaning a shelf close by, she was a pretty girl with strawberry blonde hair and bright green eyes, she was wearing a black uniform and apron and looked up at us holding a cloth
