Charles returned home with an assortment of foods and I devoured them all. My stomach felt a lot better and so did my body. Charles and I talked a while before heading to bed. "You know you're more advanced than the freshman classes you're taking. You could test out of them and get the credit. You'll graduate a lot sooner like that." Charles explained to me. "You really think I could test out of them?" I was sure I could but I wanted to hear him say it. It was nice knowing he thought I was so intelligent. "I'm sure you can." He said and I smiled real big at him. "It'll be too late to sign up for more advanced courses this semester but you could test out of the classes you're in now, aside from the lab, and you'll be more available to learn elvish magic and history. I feel like you could use a semester getting to know that part of you. You could also see if you have any witchy potential." I smirked at that. " I think that's a really good plan. I'll talk with my professors about it t

I could feel my heart in my throat. I was about to meet my mate's father. I was about to meet an alpha of the original 10. I swallowed hard as Charles creaked the door open slowly. I took a deep breath walking in behind him. I tried to keep my head up high. I didn't want his father to think I was weak. "What are you doing back? Have you finally come to your senses?" Charles' father asked and I almost gasped in surprise. I can't believe his father would greet him that way. My father would have greeted us warmly with a smile and probably a hug. I didn't understand these powerful dad's I've been meeting here lately. "I've come to show you the labors of my hard work. I've also come to introduce you to my mate." Charles responded flatly. If his father's words had hurt him, he didn't let it show. "I don't care what you've done at that college, Charles. Your duty is here to the pack. You need to return home and take your rightful place." His father sounded annoyed and he completely skipp

We took a breather in Charles room, giving me time to calm down. I looked around his room reading some of his trophies. Most were for academics and then a few for soccer and track. "You cheater." I said, pointing to the track metals. He laughed. "It's not my fault the humans didn't notice." I rolled my eyes at him. *Are you ready?" He stretched his hand out for me to take and I did, nodding my head. I took a deep breath to try to keep myself calm. I was about to meet the woman that birthed my mate. The Luna that seemed to shadow a powerful alpha. Charles led me out of his room down a maze of corridors. We turned left then right again and made another turn into a small hallway through a door that didn't lead to a room but to another hall. I was so lost by the time we reached a large glass door and somehow got outside. The glassdoors belonged to a beautiful garden house. Vines had grown around it, only adding to its beauty. When we went inside there were many different kinds of flow

We walked through the sticky sweet tunnel for longer than I wanted to. Yet it felt shorter than I would have liked. I wasn't ready to meet the woman that raised my father. What if she was like Charles' parents? What if she had imposed terrible standards on my father and that's why he ran away? I still didn't know anything about her or anything about why my father left. I didn't want to bring myself to ask my mother, because what if she didn't know any of this. I feel like it would break her heart that her mate kept this from her. I could see the end of the tunnel coming up. The palms of my hands were clammy from the nerves. I kept them in tight fists beside me, trying not to fidget. My heart felt like it was going to explode. It didn't help that I couldn't take any deep breaths to calm myself without my nose burning, and nausea hitting me. Star stepped out first then Charles who held a hand out for me to take. I gladly took it, needing the comfort his touch would bring. I stepped ou

Vanora led me up the stairs and down a long corridor. She turned right and walked us to the end of the hall. There was a door with a large carving of the tree of life in the center. Above that carving was another carving, a name, Artemis. "This is– was, your father's room" The word stung her to say. She opened the door revealing a quaint room. It wasn't very large, but the space was fully used. In the center was his queen sized bed, with white satin sheets. In the back right corner was an easel with dried paint. Beside it a small table full of art supplies just thrown about. In the upper right corner of the room, were closet doors. I opened them inspecting the contents of his young adult wardrobe. There were jeans, band t shirts, a nice leather jacket on one side of the closet. It was funny how similar our styles are at this age. On the other side were slacks, and dress shirts along with a couple of tunics. It was like he lived two separate lives. To the left of the room was a desk

I woke up drenched in sweat last night, the dream replaying in my head. It had felt so real, I swallowed the fear still stuck in my throat. I remembered running through the dense trees. The smell of pine mixed with salt from the ocean. There was snow on the ground and my paws were propelling forward faster than ever. I could feel something sinister chasing me, but I couldn't tell what it was. It felt like the shadows themselves were going to gobble me up. I could feel the fear stir me like my life was in serious danger. I grabbed my throat remembering how the dream had ended. Whatever was chasing me had caught up to me and sunk its teeth into my neck. There was nothing there of course as it was all a dream after all. It had just felt so real, I couldn't shake the feeling off. Charles grabbed my hand then, watching me with concern. "What's wrong?" He raised a brow. "Nothing, just a bad dream. It felt so real though." I explained, still feeling around my throat. Charles rubbed my ba

Vanora led me through the many wooden bridges connecting the city together. Eventually we got to a house wrapped around a tree. I figure it'll probably be the same as the palace, where the inside of the tree would be hollowed out to make the house. Vanora gently knocked on the door and we waited patiently for someone to answer. "Coming," I heard a familiar voice yell out as we heard the lock fiddle on the other side. Star opened the door smiling brightly at us. "My queen." Star answered as she bowed her head in respect. "I've brought Rain to meet your father. I know I told you to bring him to the palace, but we had some time this morning. Since Rain's magic seems to be established already." I couldn't help picking up the slight stab in her words. Star's eyes widened and her cheeks flushed. "I'm sorry queen. I was only trying to help." Vanora held her hand up to silence her. "No need for apologies Star. I understand. " I couldn't help but feel like Star wasn't going to live this do

Vanora decided to show me the green house first. We stayed at ground level the whole way there. We walked on a small path through the thick grass and trees. Eventually a glass dome came into view. It was the largest greenhouse I had ever seen. When we entered his comforting scent of pine and cinnamon hit my nose. I looked around for him, finding him towards the back with Evandrus. Charles seemed to be trying to hide his anger as he caught sight of us. He and Evandrus wrapped their conversation up in hushed voices. I went to give him a hug but Eryn got in my way. He got to Charles before me and punched him square in the jaw. I let a small scream of surprise out, quickly covering my mouth with my hands. Charles turned to look at Eryn, claws out and fangs on display. He let out a low growl, warning Eryn to stand down. Eryn didn't move though, he stood firm eyeing Charles with fury. I ran between them. I placed my hand on Charles' chest, trying to ease Gunner in him. I could feel Charle
