chapter 18 Family
Luna awoke the next morning and was ready to head out with Lucian. The went to her house to get
packed. She really looked forward to meeting other wolves and seeing the one responsible for her
growing up without parents put to judgement. When she got to her house, her mother and Stepfather
well, adopted parents were seated at the dining table. It was as if they never moved.
She greeted them and went up to pack a bag. When she came downstairs, she explained that she was
going on a trip with Lucian to meet family.
They couldn’t do anything to stop her considering Lucian was her family and had documented proof
that he should have been her legal guardian. Luna thanked them for taking care of her all her life and
assured them that she did not hate them but that she needed to learn about herself and that could only
be done by getting to know more people like her. She couldn’t tell them that she was a ware wolf since
they were quite human and had attributed the things happening to her as low self- esteem and
somnambulism.
With that she hugged her so called mom and waved goodbye to them. She left with Lucian and within a
matter of hours they came to a wooded area with huge pine trees and a few miles in they came upon a

Luna’s mother looked at Lucian as he walked away with Luna and smiled to herself. She knew that he
would be trouble for her but she never thought that she would stand to lose Luna to him at this point.
She still needed Luna and she would get her back. She was the key to her plan after all. She was so
tired of pretending but she just needed to hold on for a moment longer till her plan unfolds. She just
wanted to put an end to all this drama. She was now living with a man whom she had to pretend to love
in a world that she never wanted to be a part of. But in spite of those limitations and disappointments
she was flawless in her role play. She’d be dammed if she let some wolf get the best of her. She would
destroy them before she let them win.
Luna was surprised to see a whole town in there. They were greeted by a huge man in his mid-sixties
and a grey-haired woman next to him. He greeted my Uncle Lucian and apologized for what had
transpired within the pack.
My uncle went on to introduce me but was cut short by the woman. “You are the spitting image of your
grandmother.” Lucian cut her short by continuing his discussion with the Alpha. My niece here Luna
seems to have acquired my mother’s gifts. She grew up with humans after her parents were killed and
needs to catch up. She needs to learn as much as possible about our ways. I have no doubt that she
will have no trouble fitting in. Luna smiled as she did want to learn. She wanted to know where she
came from and wanted to be a part of this new world. But most importantly she wanted to see the
woman responsible for her parents’ deaths.
They were led to a beautiful house in the center of the village next to the alpha’s mansion. “I see you
didn’t tear it down.” Lucian said. “Thank you.” “I always doubted that Aurora had anything to do with this
whole mess but I had no proof. Everything pointed to her and even when Your brother my beta pleaded
with me to have mercy, I couldn’t look weak in the eyes of the pack. I had no choice but to cast them
out. I quickly came to my senses but they were already gone and you left soon after.”
“Well thank the goddess we found the witch so she can be punished so my brother and his wife can
rest.” He said to the Alpha squeezing Luna’s hands. Tears streamed down Luna’s cheeks mostly out of
anger. A rage was boiling inside her. One she wished to let loose on the woman who caused her life to
be so empty. She was brought back to reality when her uncle told her “Come on, let’s go inside. When
she entered the house, she came upon a family wall with pictures of a woman with hair just like her.
She was drawn to her. The woman looked like her only older.
“This was your grandma. She was a force. He pointed to a picture that she recognized too well. It was
the only one that she could associate with. It was a picture of her mom and dad holding her as a baby.
She knew because the baby was white haired and the woman felt familiar. “This was my mom? This is
our family?” this was more than she expected. She had started to feel so many feelings at once. It was
overwhelming. Luna began to shift and this time it happened so quickly.
Luna was a great white wolf in the middle of her family home. Lucian looked at her and gave her a hug
as he sensed her pain. “It’s ok. It’s ok sweetheart I know this is a lot but you are strong and you will get
through this. We will get through this together.
