The Promised Child.

The Prophecy

The sun shone through the curtains, and for a moment, Mia thought she must be dreaming. Sunlight was never something she had the luxury of waking up to. In her basement, she was usually awoken by a bucket or water being thrown at her or the sound of banging on her door. It was always the same she had to get up to prepare breakfast, clean the pack house, do all the ranking wolfs laundry, and all this was before lunch prep. Sometimes, she had help their were always 2 pack slaves in the house to help her complete larger jobs and other jobs like shopping and anything that involved leaving the house. She wasn't trusted, having tried to escape every chance she got. Both girls were slightly older than her, but still not old enough to shift. When slaves became of age to shift, they were thrown into warrior training and had to endure daily wolfspane injections to keep their wolfs suppressed. This was so that no one could challenge the Alpha and also meant that all healing took the same time as Humans.The alpha said this would help build character and strength and make them formidable and unmatched by other packs at enduring pain. It also meant though that no one could sense their mates. Their wolves were suppressed for so long that no one could recognise each others different sents.

This meant that to keep the warriors happy. The Alpha had a brothel on pack grounds. Humans were kept as playthings for wolfs. The alpha was obsessed with a prophecy that foresaw that there would be a war between the supernaturals. He saw Wolfs as the superior species all the others were the lower in his eyes, he couldnt see how they would be able to threaten wolves, but despite his arrogance, he believed in the moon goddess and her prophecy. He made sure his warriors were formidable.

Every shifter had to train train train. Mia could never understand why the warriors couldn't train in Wolf form. Surely, that would give them the advantage over other species After all, isn't that what set them apart. Wasn't that where their strength lies

Mia sat up and looked around she saw Blake snoring on the pullout bed he looked ridiculous. He was 6ft 4, and his back was a wall of muscle he barely fit on the bed. She made a mental note to insist he take the king-sized bed tonight. She headed to the bathroom, eager to enjoy the cascade of water on her tierd body. Her muscles were aching from her first shift yesterday. (All normal Blake had warned her, but still frustrating all the same time) she tip toed around him, trying desperately not to wake him. She was soon showered and ready to face the meeting. It was then she stopped and thought about her lack of clothes and wondered if Blake would lend her a shirt, so she grabbed one from the closet. It looked ridiculous on her, but she didn't have much of a choice she decided to put a belt around it and make a dress to see if it would help.

It was then Floyd growled from within Blake. Blake just shrugged. Floyd likes that you are wearing my clothes. You have our smell on you now. (Wolfs are possessive animals, and they like other males to know who their mate belongs to. Especially as they had not mated and marked yet. He needed the other males to know she was his). Mine, he growled.

Mia chuckled a little early to claim me, Floyd. Blake hasn't even bought me dinner. Mia had read a lot of love stories and had read how ladies were always woewed by their admirers. She always read using a small camping light she had found in the rubbish one day. She used it as a form of escape when things got too much. She would dream she was far away in a castle somewhere surrounded by friends and family who love her.

Blake, you asked me if I knew anything about my herritage. Why did you ask? Sorry, Mia, i didn't mean to pry. It's just that Floyd could sense Lyras aura, and it was really powerful. He is in awe of his beautiful mate. Now that I have witnessed your shift and met Lyra, I think it would be important for you to learn about your past and maybe even find your real family. They must sense you through the family bond now that you have shifted. Im sure they are searching for you, and I wondered how Alpha Asshat was able to steal you. I must admit Lyra and I have been wondering this, too Mia giggled. "Alpha Asshat". Sorry Alpha Arthur. Me and Parker named him this at a Conference once. I like it Mia said it suits him.

I have just been mindlinked by my beta. They are ready for us for the meeting. Blake quickly dressed and joined the other's. Let's get some answers.

Everyone was gathered in the conference room all around one table with a video link set up to Alpha Blakes parents and the Wolf Council. Mia was nervous, and Blake placed his hand on the small of her back to offer reassurance.

Firstly, I just want to thank everyone for meeting with me at such short notice. I understand my beta has filled you in on me finding my mate yesterday, and I would like to introduce Mia to everyone as my mate and future Luna of The Blue Lake Pack.

Everyone congratulated us and welcomed Mia. Then Mia stepped forward. This brings me to the first thing we wanted to share. Mia had her first shift yesterday, and we all discovered she is a white wolf that can control the elements. Gasps were heard around the room, and everyone fell silent. That's not all. Her wolfs pupils are the shape of lighting bolt.

The Prophecy the head of the council exclaimed. Please can you tell us what you know, Bryan. Bryan was an older wolf. no one knew how old he was he had salt and peppered hair and a long beard. Children often referenced him to the likening a wizard in a children's book. He hadls kind eyes that held years of wisdom and a formidable reputation.

Bryan took a sip of his water and spoke with confidence. The Prophecy was foretold by an ancient prophet. It is said that "when dark magic is used to taint the wolfs blood, supernaturals must look to the elementals to restore the balance. For only when the full moon is high and light supernaturals joins nature will win through and an Alpha will get retribution".
