“But the second daughter she is to have will have the blessing right?” he asks, another nod from me. “So at that point, she’s probably thinking, that’s fine because she still expects that you’ll come out blond hair and blue–eyed too?” another nod. “But the message from the
Goddess was the one most like the first Alpha.” by this point, I’m feeling like a bobblehead toy with all my nodding.
“When the Goddess told her this she probably was not thinking about what the First Alpha looked like, just what the First Alpha’s
accomplishments were, this meant you were going to be what brought the family to a high status permanently.” Nod. “But when you came
out with dark skin, hair, and purple eyes, she was faced with the very reason she rejected her mate, to avoid producing a child with dark
coloring.”
As he continues I think I know where he’s going with this. “So she’s furious, the child with the wrong coloring is the one to be blessed by the Goddess, she can’t accept that so she has the Witch bind your powers and your wolf, in an attempt to deny you your destiny.” he
finishes. Yup, he’s drawing the same conclusions.‘
Now I’m full of questions. But one that nagged me enough to ask out loud. “Why didn’t they have any more children after me?” Looking at the fight happening without really seeing it. Then Darien next to me straightens saying. “Oh! I know the answer to this one.” He said. I look back at him, he turns to face me. “Well” I finally say impatiently, this only makes him smirk at me.
“Patience is a virtue young one.” He says in a faked wise man’s voice, teasing me further. “Spill it you.” I snap. He laughs at my expense for a moment, then sobers up. “Your mom got pregnant not even a month after having you. She was five months along when she was in
an accident taking you to a routine well pup check.” I’m shocked, I hadn’t known this.
“They had to deliver the pup early. It was a boy, a dark–skinned black hair boy. He didn’t survive, the accident had caused the umbilical
cord to detach, and he suffocated in the womb.” he pauses. “Your mom’s womb never healed right from the injury, she kept experiencing
excruciating pain and heavy bleeding for months after.” he pauses again.
“Come to find out due to the accident, her ovaries and uterus were damaged beyond werewolf healing, and had to be removed.” I take a
moment to process this, her abuse and hatred of me starting to make more sense now. None of what she’s done had been right though.
She never should have rejected her mate. She never should have abused me. But she did, she had hurt me again and again, over something
not my fault.
I started to question how she could have been so discriminating about someone’s coloring to reject her mate. It never made sense to me,
and it still doesn’t. What made the Northmountains and a faction of the Frosts do this? They were rejecting their mates for this, for some
asinine reason! What had they wanted so badly that they have done this for ten generations now?

I didn’t have time to think about this now. I was up against Lexus now, so I got up and headed to the floor. I push my questions to the
back of my head. I climb up to the platform, strip down, and once more transform into our half–form. The mummers start again, but not
in shock now, they’re just appreciative remarks.
I’m even more proud to be who I am now. Knowing my family tried to make sure I would never realize, or grow into my destiny. Despite
all they did, we still broke free, with a little help from the Goddess. Darien, the Alpha, and Luna played big parts in helping me achieve
this as well. I will be forever grateful to them, for all they’ve done for us.

At nine foot two Lexus, a reddish mostly brown wolf, was only slightly shorter than me. But that didn’t matter, he blocked the first kick.

The one that would have sent him flying out of the ring and into the stadium wall. Spinning around I lower myself in a kick that takes his
legs out from under him. He landed on his back. I follow that up with a powerful fist to the side of his head. He’s out, another match over
far too quickly.
I transform back, dress, and head to my seat, passing Darien on my way up, this round is his second fight, “Knock them out.” I say on the
way by. He laughs before commenting. “That’s what you’ve been doing.” I laugh, he’s right, I have been knocking them out, literally.
