My Married Mate

The Legends of the Goddess Descendant Wolves

Simon's POV

I cut my day short the moment that Scarlet and Mark exit the building. I need to start doing research right this second. I leave Jayden in charge and take Brenden home with me. My dad and the elders are waiting for me. I have exactly 4 hours before dinner and I want some answers. My dad is waiting for me outside as I screech up to the house, in my bright orange 2020 Acura NSX, as is Clarice. Yuck, I can't even stand to look at her right now.

"Dad, are the elders in the library?" He nods. "Clarice, pack your stuff and get to your parents' house, you're moving out."

"WHAT?!" She screeches.

Before she can get another word out I use my alpha tone to command her. "SHUT UP AND GET OUT. NOW." She submits and scurries up the stairs. I know this isn't my finest moment as an Alpha, but when you find your mate, it doesn't matter how beautiful someone is by society's standards. Clarice was definitely beautiful by society's standards, and I had chosen her for a reason when I lost hope of finding my mate at 24, but now, I hate myself for ever having had a relationship with her. I sigh and dip my head and follow my dad to the library.

"Douglas, so happy that Simon is able to join us finally. I have lots of questions that I hope can find us answers."

"Elder Scott, Elder Michael, Elder Samuel." I nod my head in respect, as these are our most knowledgeable elders that have all served as an alpha at one time or another.

Elder Scott speaks again, "So it seems we have a bit of a situation, yes Simon?" I nod my head. "Your father filled us in. Simon, you said this woman, she is human, has born a werewolf pup unharmed and her pup has her wolf at 6 years of age?" I simply nod. "Your father and I have been researching since you contacted us when you left work. Tell me, have you heard of all the Goddess Descendant Wolves?" I nod again. "Well, go on, tell me what you know of them?"

"There are the Moonphase Wolf, the Jade Wolf, the Obsidian Wolf, the Gemstone Wolf, the True Gamma."

"Correct, there are more but they are rare and we usually see these wolves only once every 150 years or more, except one. One of these wolves will always birth their same type of wolf on their first pregnancy but a lower rank Do you know which of those that is?

"The Gemstone Wolf, but we don't know that to be true, only a story. We've never seen it happen."

"That is correct, in our history, the high ranked gemstone wolves have always been hunted and killed before maturity and mating by those afraid of their power. What else do you know about the Gemstone Wolves?"

"They are extremely rare and coveted. Their wolf's names are always their gemstones. There are Amethyst, Sapphire, Ruby, um, Opal, and Emerald. They are only females, extremely powerful, have special gifts and they are direct descendants of the Moon Goddess herself."

"Aren't you forgetting one?" Elder Samuel chimes in.

I laugh out loud. "Forgive me, but if you mean the legendary, never documented, Diamond wolf, no. I thought you wanted real information, not fairytales."

"Do you know their ranking? Which is the most powerful?"

"With or without the fairytale?" I question menacingly. He gives me a stern look that gives me my answer. "Okay, okay. They rule by the hardness of the true gems. Diamond, then Ruby, then Sapphire, Emerald, Amethyst and Opal." At this point I'm annoyed, they are wasting my time with fairytales.

"There are many of these special wolves, most of them females, and many of these special wolves get their wolf at birth or very shortly after. Some can even be born in wolf form, like the Moonphase wolf." Elder Michael finally speaks up.

"Okay, that's all really cool and all, but Scarlet is HUMAN!" I'm officially annoyed.

"Ahhh, yes, BUT, we do know that the Gemstone Wolves can give birth to any and all of the other Goddess Descendant wolves. They can also have ordinary wolves as well. If we find out what wolf the daughter has, we may be able to narrow down what kind of wolf the mother has."

"I don't know how else to explain this," I am increasingly frustrated at the lack of answers in regards to my mate. "I hugged this woman today, she is human, no wolf, no scent, no nothing."

This time my dad speaks up, "Son, I need you to think very carefully. Ask Blaze to help because this is very important. When you say "no scent", what exactly do you mean?

Father is right! Something isn't right. Scarlet had NO scent, literally no scent at all! Even humans have scents!

My eyes widen, "I mean, she had no scent, no perfume, no scent of morning breakfast, not even Mark's scent came from her."

My dad looks to the elders, "If this is a powerful wolf, masking her scent, binding her powers, possibly removing her memories, that would take some very strong magic and no ordinary magic folk would be able to accomplish that. Possibly dark magic. There is no way a low-level wolf like Mark could birth a strong pup like this little girl without the mother being powerful. Simon, you stay here and continue your research in this book. It's all about the Goddess Descendant wolves. Learn about them ALL. Elders, I need you to access every resource you have, we need to find all the witches or wizards that could perform this type of magic. There won't be many."

For the first time, it's the elders who break the professionalism as they all groan. Magic folk and wolves do not get along at all. While we are all born from the same cloth and connect to nature and energy, we have never particularly liked coexisting and we certainly don't work together.
