"Good you’re here now we have so much to talk about." The alpha said happily grinning at me.
"Mom are you okay?" I ask her stunned at how she's smiling.
"Hush now let me explain what's going on." My mom sounds breathless and excited. "You can see auras and your eyes turned completely sliver which means it's time for the Alpha test."
I stare at her in shocked silence, me testing to be an beta? I'm the smallest in the pack my skin is the wrong color and so is my hair most of the time. "Are you sure I could be one I mean have you seen the other beta's? Their at least three times my size! My coloring is wrong and so is my nature! I can't be a beta!" I'm shaking badly, I stand and start pacing my mom and siblings watch me quietly. What if I lose control?
"I don't know if you will pass the testing but you will join it because you can see auras which is a dominant trait and the sliver eyes are a beta trait which means that you my dear could be the beta to one of your older brothers. I don't except you to be Alpha but I to except you try to make beta." My mom's voice is hard letting me know I have no say in the matter.
"Okay so when do these test start?" I ask because honestly it's the only thing that I can think of to ask.
"Today! I'm going to get things ready so Snow, Thunder, and Lightning go put on something that you can move in easily. Meet me in thirty minutes at the Fall border." My mother tells us as she grabs her phone that's been going off since she started talking. "Hello. . .Yes. . .What? She oh my god! . . .Okay thank you my daughter will come get her. . .I'm sure it's fine just don't tell him it's her." Willow's half brown half blue eyes meet my jade ones wondering which daughter she is talking about. The call ends and our mother turns to me with a hard look on her face, shit what'd I do? "You left Ruby at the party?!" She yells at me and I finch.
"She was with Seth and it wasn't my choice to leave her I could barely walk!" I yell back mad that she blames me for leaving and then my stomach drops. "What happened to Ruby?"
My mom angry face softens for a moment at my question. "Last night one of the Fall boys tired his luck with her but one of the Summer boys stopped it from happening. She stayed with them because her mom had a guest over last night and she wasn't going to interrupt that nor was she going to freak you all at by going to Angel's house." I stare at my mom not sure how to prosses that my friend was almost rapped and saved by our enemy clan.
WHAT THE ACTUALLY FUCK?!?! The room goes in and out of focus because my mind is thinking of all the bad things that could have happened. Willow grabs my hand and pulls me to her for a hug which is when I notice she is only two inches shorter than me! Her soft white hair is braided to the side on her pale shoulder.
She grabs my face with her hands to make me look her in the eye. "She is fine nothing happened to her so calm down and go get her." She lets go and I look to my mom because she wants me to the alpha test but I have to talk to my friend and who knows how long that will take.
"Go get her but be at the Fall border in one hour okay?" I nod and go to my room to change out of my black dress that I just realized is almost showing my underwear. I come out in a hoodie and work out pants both grey.
"Winter." I look up at Thunder who is towering over me with a worried expression and I remember that he likes Ruby and is worried about her as well. His white hair gets in his crystal blue eyes and he roughly pushes it out of them.
"Yes?"
"Let me know who did it and I will skin them alive." His voice is hard and flat. I nod and head out the door shifting to wolf form before I even take a step outside.
Today I'm a black wolf with half green half sliver eyes. I race to the Summer border, some of the others watch as I run toward the border others simply act as if they didn't see a small black wolf running on Winter ground but I guess they got used to it.
I make it to the border in eight minutes tops, I breathe heavily waiting for them to show up.
I shift back to human form and start pacing while chewing on my nails (bad habit I know but I do it when I'm worried).
About ten minutes later I see a golden blue eyed wolf Ruby. To her left is a red/brown wolf with brown eyes and to her right is a golden/brown wolf with golden green eyes that I recognize immediately. They shift to human and I step on their side of the border and hug Ruby tightly. "If you ever scare me like that again I'm going to hang you by your toes!" I say into her hair not caring that I'm supposed to be on the other side of the border.
"I'm okay but I won't be if you keep crushing me." She says right above my ear because she's too damn tall. I let her go but grab her hand and pull her to our side.
"Thank you for helping her." I said to the boys across from us, the red/brown head nods but the other one is just staring at me. "Yes?" I ask him.
"You really are from the Winter Moon clan. But you don't look like one of them." I glare at him but I feel Ruby tug on my hand warning me to stay calm.
"I know what I look like." I reply in a stiff tone, I look at the other boy and smile a bit. "Thank you guys for bring her back safe but we have to go." I shift and so does Ruby but my fur is black and white now, I curse under my breath. I look up at Tom? "Do you see my Winter Moon colors now?"
"Perfectly." He turns and shifts and so does his friend.
I look over at Ruby who is watching the red/brown wolf. "Don't you even think about it!" I tell her and she smiles at me sheepishly then bolts toward her cave I follow and pass her beating her there. I smile at her cause I won again. I shift back to human form as does Ruby. "So are you going to tell me what happened?" My smile fades and so does her.
"Maybe some other time but not now." She opens the door and steps inside I follow but we both freeze. Layla is on all fours while Arthur Chaining roughly slams into her. I pull Ruby back and slam the door shut, we start running to my cave. We get there and were both breathless because we ran as fast as we could. I open the door and let Ruby go in first but she stops in the door way making me run into her.
"Umm hi." Lightning says as he slips on his pants but he's still shirtless which is why Ruby froze.
"I hate you. Put on a shirt so my friend will un-freeze." He smiles and walks out of the living room Ruby walks to mine without saying anything. I sigh and follow her, she is sitting on my bed with her knee's to her chest.
"Ruby I have to go soon and you're coming with me." I tell her, she raises her eye brows at me and I smirk at her. "I have an alpha test today."
She looks me over trying to see if I'm joking. "Why?" Is all she asks.
"Because my eyes can turn completely sliver and I can see auras so I might be a beta."
"Oh okay I'll come just to watch you get your ass handed to you."
"Hey! Not nice!" I grab a pillow and throw it at her which makes her laugh.
"Snow you've never won a fight in all of your life, I know you throw the fights but still. What are you going to do if you have to fight?"
I sigh. "I think I can win because I know everyone's weak spots because I learned how to pay attention to everything. I let them win so I could know what their finally bows will be." I'm not stupid and I've never wanted to fight but I learned by watching everyone fight each other and them fighting me but I've never won a fight other than with Ruby or Sam but I still held back because I was scared to hurt them.
"Snow be careful I've fought you when you were holding back and I could barely last five minutes so please be careful and don't break anyone." Ruby said to me as she changed clothes from a dress to jeans and a crop top. Well the jeans are hers but the shirt is mine and since her torso is longer than mine the half top is a crop top on her.
"I will be I don't want to hurt my brothers." I said as hand her some black combat boots. "I will hold back but I will not lose."
"Snow if this is an Alpha test it won't only be your brothers it will be all teenagers that can see auras and have sliver eyes." Ruby and I lock eyes and she pauses thinking before saying. "Sam is one of them."
"What?!" Why didn't I know this fuck! I can't fight Sam!
"He didn't want to tell anyone but I was there the first time his eyes turned sliver." She clears her throat looking uncomfortable and that's when I realize why.
"Oh my gosh were you having. . .?"
". . .Yeah. . .um uh don't tell anyone because. . .um it was uh his first time." She stutters badly and all I can do is stare at her.
"I will never repeat what you just told me ever." I tell her my eyes wide with shock. "But um we need to go or I'll be late." She nods and we head out of my room where Willow is waiting. "Yes?" I ask her.
"I was told to wait for you then take you to the Fall border." She tells me sounding older than she is.
I sigh and throw my right arm over her shoulders while Ruby does the same thing to me. We start walking toward the border, Willow shifts first than looks up at Ruby and I waiting. I laugh and shift at the same Ruby shifts. Willow takes off at a slow run with Ruby and I at her flanks.
Usually there are wolves everywhere but there aren't any wolves out right now which is rather odd. We run through the woods birds screaming letting the wolves know that we're near.
