Chapter 26
She felt the magical barrier let her through and passed a few more trees before they finally came into view. She was smiling like a fool as she kept running, and as they noticed her, they broke into tremendous grins of their own. Lorenzo knew he would never forget her smile in that moment, and how thrilled she looked to see them.
Without thinking, she ran and launched herself into Drew’s arms, wrapping her arms around his neck in a tight hug and her legs around his waist. He laughed and spun her around before a low and possessive growl sounded next to them. He placed her quickly back on her feet and took a step back, bowing his head to his Alpha.
Arla was mortified when she realised she had broken protocol by addressing the Beta first, and bowed her head to Alpha Lorenzo as well.

Cadet training was all about the basics of building physical fitness, strength, and stamina in human form. The stronger the human body is, the stronger the wolf. Once a pup’s wolf has awoken, they can then begin combat and self-defence training with a solid foundation already formed. Arla’s lungs were burning by the end of the session and she was hunched over with her hands on her knees, trying desperately to suck in air and slow down her breathing. She was strong, thanks to her weekends working in the garden, but she’d underestimated just how unfit she actually was. “It’s a shame you can’t use your magic to run for you,” joked Drew, noticing how much she was struggling. Arla smirked to herself before vanishing, then reappearing behind Drew in the blink of an eye, and tapping him on the shoulder. He spun around w

Arla walked back through the boundary and into the coven with a spring in her step. She knew she had missed them, but didn’t realise just how much until they were standing there in front of her. She was still slightly embarrassed at the way she’d thrown herself into their arms, but they were both there in the alley on the worst day of her life, and had been looking out for her ever since in their own ways. It was comforting to get confirmation, finally, that it was them watching her at the farm, too. It made her feel cared for to know that even after a year here at the coven, her Alpha and Beta still thought of her as part of their pack and wanted to know she was safe. Later that evening, Arla sat with her friends in the main house and filled them in on her training session. Sadie and Sebastian listened in

Arla and Victor hastily jumped to their feet, peering into the darkness trying to gauge who, or what, these people were and how many of them were here. They were already breathing heavily from their previous activities and now their hearts were racing, too. “Who are you?” shouted Victor, pulling Arla closer to him. “Don’t be scared, we are friendly,” replied the female figure closest to them, her dark cloak billowing in the breeze. Victor couldn’t smell them, but with Arla’s werewolf nose, she certainly could. She realised she must have been completely lost in the moment with Victor to not smell this stench before now. She’d heard that rogues smelled like rotten garbage, but she didn’t get the feeling that these were wolves. The only way she could think of to describe the fragrance was damp, mouldy carpet.

Arla woke to find herself in her bedroom on the bottom bunk, with Sadie’s worried face staring at her. “Oh my gosh, you’re awake. Are you ok?” “Uh, I think so,” replied Arla, confused. She tried to sit up, but Sadie had already rushed to her side, propping her pillow up behind her and helping her to sit. Suddenly, her memories came flooding back all at once. “Sadie. Victor. Is he ok?” “Victor’s fine, don’t worry. He’s pretty sore and feeling sorry for himself, but no major injuries. He’s been waiting for you to wake up.” “How long have I been out for?” “Not even twenty-four hours. Julian brought you home late last night, and you slept all day today. It’s three o’clock in the afternoon now. Julian said you used so much po

The months continued to speed by rapidly. As she crept closer to sixteen, she began to sense a presence in her mind, like an itching sensation that she couldn’t reach to scratch, and knew instinctively that it was her wolf lurking in the background, waiting for her time to come forward. Her wolf was most noticeable when she was training with Alpha Lorenzo. He had come to train with her once a month for the last two years, and they were always her favourite sessions. If she was being honest, she didn’t exactly work hard when the Alpha came. He always went easy on her if she complained, but it meant they got to talk and joke. Although she would never admit it to anyone but Sadie, she was fairly sure she was developing a schoolgirl crush on him. Arla wasn’t

“Arla, I said left. Left! What’s gotten into you today?” barked Eli. Eli pushed Arla the hardest out of everyone who came to train her, and she usually loved testing her limits, but was struggling today. “Sorry. I’m not with it today,” replied Arla, trying to recover her breath. “Are you ok?” asked Alpha Lorenzo, moving towards her. “If you need to stop, we can.” “We’re not stopping,” snapped Eli. “Get yourself together and keep moving, Arla.” Alpha Lorenzo growled at Eli, who immediately lowered his head in submission. “Ok, fine, we’ll take a break,” he conceded, although clearly irritated. “What’s wrong with you?” “It’s my wolf,” she replied, shaking her head.

The six friends sat in the living room in Lydia’s cottage, playing a board game, while Sadie read one of Arla’s werewolf textbooks for the five hundredth time. She let out a long, dramatic sigh, causing the rest of them to look in her direction, noticing the wistful look on her face. “Uh, are you ok, Sadie?” asked Sebastian, a little warily. “What? Oh, yeah, sorry,” she replied. “I just get caught up in the romance every time I read about werewolf mates.” “Is it different from the way witches choose partners?” questioned Sebastian. He’d never really taken much interest in Arla’s background before. “Oh, yes! Very different,” replied Sadie, eager to share her knowledge. “Werewolves don’t get to choose their mates.” “What?”
Arla: White Wolf, White Witch Chapter 34
Arla tossed and turned all night long, alternating between tears and rage over Victor’s betrayal, sadness at how much she was going to miss her friends and her life at the coven, and excitement to be returning to the pack she considered home. All of her emotions battled with each other for supremacy, leaving her exhausted and emotionally drained come morning. She was up and out of bed before Sadie had even begun to stir, finding a note under the door from Elder Laurel asking to meet her in her office. “The potion is much more complex than it appeared at first glance last night,” said Elder Laurel. “I am fairly certain I know who crafted it, and if I wasn’t so disgusted with him, I would be exceptionally complimentary of his ability.” “What kind of potion is it
