I am currently training young pups. I don't hate what I do because of my Warrior Rank. I love teaching the young children. I love teaching the young girls they still inspire me. They remind me when I first started training.
I live in a medium sized cottage not that far from the pack house. I would live in the pack house because I am still unmated but I want to stay away from the horny, unmated males. I am not afraid of them, it's just to keep me safe. Just because I know how to
Fight doesn't mean I enjoy being in danger.
You're supposed to find you mate at 16 but you get your wolf at 14. I am 20 and still unmated, it doesn't matter. I am a outcast in my own pack because I am unmated. People find me weird because I don't follow the social norms of the werewolf community.
I had to fight to become a warrior because I am a woman. The Moonlight Pack is made up of 200 wolves. We are a big pack, Packs usually are only 50 to 80 wolves. My Alpha name is Raph. He is a good Alpha, I respect him.
However, I've always had trouble submitting to him. My wolf never wants to, but she does because she knows it'll be trouble. I can't afford to become a rogue. That is a crime in werewolf world, people never respect rogue wolves. I never mind, some people don't have a choice to become rogue.
That would be surprising coming from a warrior wolf. I know when to attack. I was taught to attack at the right time. To study people's movement, to know my enemy. So I know when to spot a bad rogue.
There is a Royal family in the werewolf community. The Alpha King reigns all over the packs and Alphas in the werewolf community. The current Alpha king and Queen names Are Victoria and Michael. I never really cared for the Royal family. They have nothing to do with me.
I look around and see the young pups practicing hard. They looked tired and exhausted.
"Alright, that enough for today, go home and relax. You have the rest of the week off." I said to everyone.
They all dropped on the ground in exhaustion, I knew they were tired but I had no idea that they were this tired.
I walked up to my favorite trainee. I know I'm not supposed to have favorites but I do and any teacher who says they don't, is lying.
The boy had chocolate skin, and warm brown eyes. His hair was in waves. He was short, but not too short.
My favorite is Luca and he is 15, I've been training him since he was 14. Luca is raised by his dad, his mom was killed by a rogue when he was three. His dad didn't go crazy. He knew his mate would want for him to be with their pup. Luca still grieves his mom, he doesn't remember her. Maybe that's why his grief is worse, because he has no memories to smile or cry at.
He was very small when I first started training him. He was weak and he was bullied a lot. He had no confidence in himself. No matter how many times Luca fell, he alway got back up. He's funny and he makes me smile. I am very proud of him.
"Luca, aren't you sad you won't see me for the rest of the week?" I said in a playful tone.
My trainees know that they aren't here just to train but to learn about themselves. This is a safe environment, even though a lot of fighting happens. This is still a happy and welcoming place.
Luca opened his eyes. He was laying on the ground still, like some of the other trainees. He opened his eyes and looked up at me.
"Not really, I'm actually happy." Luca said with a smile on his face and a glint in his brown eyes.
I gasp and grab my chest as if I'm hurt.
"You hurt my heart Luca, should I look for a new favorite student." I said but the last part was hushed.
Some student started grabbing their bags and exiting the training area.
I grab Luca hand and start to help him up. "Take a break for the rest of the week, you worked hard today. I still expect your best next week though." I said to Luca.
"Oh I'll bring my best Ms. Xena, and I think I'll be ready to fight you soon." Luca said. I laughed at him. "Are were getting cocky now? Maybe I should fight you, so I can see you fall on your butt" I said.
Luca laughed and walked to get his bag. "Bye Ms. Xena, I'll see you next week." I waved and turned around to get my water bottle and bag.
My mom and dad is the stereotypical mates. They found each other at 16 and automatically fell in love. I don't understand how you could love someone that quick. My mom is very sweet, she's a teacher and she works with children a lot. She's always been there for me since I was a child.
My dad was more strict and the disciplinary figure in the household. I don't really talk to my dad much. I know he loves me and my brother. We're just not that close. He's more hard on my younger brother, he's more strict with Ivan.
My brother Ivan is also 15, I don't train him. He's with a different trainer. Ivan is more like my mom. My mom is caring and bubbly, and is always smiling or finding the good in things. Ivan is the exact replica of my mom. They both have sandy blonde hair and perfect blue eyes.
My looks is more like my dad and I act like him too. I have dark midnight hair with green eyes, and pale skin. I am more like my dad than anything. Maybe that's why I'm so fond of my mom. I know that no matter how strict and cold my dad is, he's hopelessly in love with my mom. It's like my mom is the reason his heart beats. That kind of love scares me.
I exit the large training area and look out to the parking lot. I see my small black car and start walking towards it. I open the door and get into my car and look for my keys. My wolf Kat feels uneasy as if something is waiting to come.
I ignore it and finally find my keys.

Today is Wednesday and I don't have work because I gave my students the week off. Usually wolves my age would be giving birth to their first pup. Which I will never understand, I know the moon goddess wants us werewolves to reproduce but I'd never think it to be so soon.
I praise the moon goddess, yes. She is a strong woman who created a magnificent species. We don't have to repeatedly get our hearts broken trying to find the one like mundanes. However, I wished we had more time before we settled down. Life is so interesting. It's there and then it's not, so why not take advantage of every piece of it.
Today I was going to treat myself and have fun with my best friend Macy. I've known Macy since I was five years old. She's always been with me and I've always been with her. You ever unintentionally genuinely love someone. We laugh together, cry together, we do everything together. Even if we argue, we still love each other.
Macy found her mate the second she turned 16. I was so mad, it's not because she found her mate. It was because I'd have to share her. At first I wasn't used to Macy caring so deeply for another person. I thought I just missed my friend. I had feelings for her since I was 13. She obviously never knew or will know. I got over my little feelings for her. I knew it was never going to happen. She had her soulmate and I still have mine somewhere.
As soon as I discovered the real reason behind my jealousy. I discovered my sexuality, I am bisexual. It didn't matter though. Sexuality doesn't matter when it comes to soulmates. Girls being with girls is normal, so is guys and guys. The gender of your other half isn't that important when you're standing in front of someone you're destined to be with.
I did tell Macy I was bi, she wasn't surprised. Her and her Mate Caleb seem very happy. She hasn't had a child yet, because me and Macy share a lot of beliefs. She doesn't like the idea of wasting her youth on giving birth to a child when she still has to grow as a person before making a big decision like that.
I get up out of my bed. My room was average sized. Everything was black, I painted my walls black. I did have a white bed set. I had a window next to my bed. I had a black chair in the corner by the window. I would drink coffee and stare into the forest, it made me calm and at peace.
I walked toward the small black closet. I opened the door and decided to grab my underwear and bra. I needed an outfit for today, I decided on a black leather skirt and a grey shirt. I also got out my black leather jacket and a grey beanie. I sat my clothes for the day on my bed and grabbed my white towel from my drawer.
I stripped of my pajamas, which was a white silk tank top and shorts. I put the towel over my body and walked out of my room. I walked down the quiet short hall and entered the bathroom. I got into the shower and washed my hair and body. I soon got out of the shower. I walked up to the sink and brushed my teeth. I looked at the mirror and saw my stupid green eyes.
I turned away from the mirror and went into the bathroom closet and grabbed the blow dryer and flat iron. I walked out of the bathroom and walked back into my room. I took me an hour to get ready, mainly because I was listening to music. It's 10 am and I haven't ate breakfast, it doesn't matter, Marcy is going to feed me. I get on my gray ankle boots and grab my purse, phone and keys.
I exit my little home and get into my tiny black car. In case you haven't noticed, black is my favorite color. I have been driving for 40 minutes and I finally reach Macy's house. I park on the curb and grab my purse, phone, and keys. I get out the car and start walking to the very bright home. Macy and I have different styles. I like the dark, she loves the light.
I take my keys and open the door to her house. "Babe I'm home!" I yell into the quiet house. "I'm in the living room!" Macy yells back. I walk through the long hall and walk into the living room. The room had a lot of windows in it. It was bright with a large TV in it. It has a long L shaped tan couch that Macy was sitting on with a yellow blanket with Caleb sitting next to her.
Caleb looked shocked and surprised. "Oh Hey Xena" Macy said. I set my purse down on the other side of the couch. I walked up to Macy and gave her a hug. "Reunited and it feels so good" I sang and Macy laughed. "Babe, how did Xena get a key to our house?" Caleb asked Macy.
I answer for her and said "Because why not, it's no point to keep opening the door for someone who basically lives here." Macy nodded her head in agreement. "Plus you love me being here Caleb, I keep your girl happy." I said to Caleb. Caleb laughed and got up from the couch. He kissed Macy and said "I'll see you later at the Pack meeting, I have work till then."
"Okay, I'll see you there, bye Cal." Macy said while smiling lovingly at her mate. You can feel the love radiating off of Macy and Caleb. She's so happy and that makes me happy because she deserves it. She's been through so much in her life. Her dad left her and her mom when she was 14. Her mom became an alcoholic.
"What Pack meeting, there is a Pack meeting today?" I asked Macy. "Oh, The Royal family is coming today." When Macy said that, something in me felt different. My wolf felt excited. Kat what's happening? What's wrong? Why are you uneasy about The Royal Family?
I don't know why I feel uneasy. Something big is going to happen today Xena. Kat said to me in my mind.
Today should be a normal day, I was going to spend time with Macy, nothing eventful should happen for me. I should be fine, maybe Kat is just antsy and want to go on a run. Either way, I'd be fine.

Macy and I were siting and eating breakfast, while watching New Girl. We loved this show, Jess was the complete opposite of me and I loved it. Macy was more like Jess. Macy was artistic, she loved painting. She has art galleries every 5 months. I admire that about her most. "I basically feed you, you're like my child." Macy said to me. "I can't cook May, if I did I would burn down my kitchen." I said.
"I could teach you how to cook, it would be fun, and safer, because lord knows you'll find a way to burn water." Macy and I laughed. "I don't want to learn, I guess my Mate will have to cook for me." I said while smiling.
"I guess so, him or her should keep you away from the kitchen if they wish to live. Your children will cower every time you step into the kitchen." Macy laughed. "May? Are you trying to her my feelings today?" I said while laughing.
Macy picked up the remote and paused the TV. She turned to me and her expression changed to worry, She seemed afraid. Her brown eyes are a little teary. Macy was beautiful, she had dark brown hair and pretty brown eyes. She had a round face, she always looks happy. She doesn't cry often unless it's serious.
"May, what's wrong? What happened?" I asked Macy while wiping the tear starting to fall from her soft cheek. "I have to tell you something. You have to promise not to get mad. I know you were mad when you had to share me with Caleb because I was like your sister our whole lives, but I." I stoped her rambling.
"May whatever you have to tell me, just tell me. I won't get mad, I promise." I said to Macy and then gave her a reassured smile. "Xena, I'm pregnant" Macy said. I furrowed my eyebrows. I searched her face and she was telling the truth.
I was trying to register this information. Macy is pregnant with a baby. She's going to be a mom, at 20 years old. I wasn't mad like she thought I was. I was just confused and a little sad. I looked at her again and she looked so happy. She was going to be a mom and she was happy. I was confused because Macy never wanted to have kids young. Maybe she changed her mind.
It's nothing wrong with it, I just have to share her with another person. It isn't just May and Xena anymore. Macy is about to have a family. We can't just go out at night and get drunk and eat licorice and run around in the dark until 3 am.
I was sad and happy. I was going to be an aunt, and I was going to be the coolest aunt ever. A tear slipped by and fell. I came out of my thinking and smiled and hugged Macy. "I'm so happy for you May, we're having a baby." I said. Macy laughed and hugged me so tight. We cried together, but I think we cried for different reasons.
We stopped crying eventually, and wiped our faces. We looked at the time and it was 1:30. "Oh, we have to go to this pack meeting." Macy said. "I'm going to go with my parents May, I'll see you later."
"Alright see you tonight, Xena, and bring my barbecue chips." Macy said. "Wow, you're so demanding May. Have I already become your maid?" I said getting up from the couch.
I walked to the side were I dropped my purse and keys, and phone. I dropped my phone in my purse. "Yes, it'll last for about 9 months and then you're free to go." Me and Macy laughed. I walked out of the living room. I walked through the hallways and reached the front door. I opened it and walked out, then locked it.
I walked up to my car and got into it, I texted my mom and said I'll meet her at the front of the pack house. I drove for at least 10 minutes until I reached the pack house. People stared gathering in front of the pack house.
I saw my Mom, Dad, and Ivan standing right where they said they'd be. I parked the car and got out. I walked to them and hugged Mom first. "Hey Mom, I missed you." She hugged me back and kissed my head. I hugged dad "Xena you should come home more often, your mom and sometimes I miss you." I kissed my Dad's cheek.
"I missed you too Dad." I moved to Ivan and pushed him. "What you been up to idiot, you should've saw that coming." I said to Ivan while smiling. He got back up and brushed himself off. "I missed you and then I remembered who you are." Ivan said. "I missed you too little bro." I said and hugged him. He hugged me back.
"The Royal Family has been visiting Packs to find Prince Scott's Mate, they haven't been lucky so far. They've already been to 15 Packs." Mom said as we started to walk to the front of the Pack House.
"Yikes." Ivan and I said at the same time. I smiled, I miss my family. Mom scowled at the both of us. "Xena, it is wonderful to be in the presence of The Royal Family." Mom said. We were almost at the front of the pack house. "You ever thought about dressing brighter, weirdo." Ivan said to me.
"You ever brave enough to ask Emily out, wimp." I said back to Ivan. Mom clearly did not know about Ivan's liking toward Emily. She glared at Ivan and said "we'll talk about this later."
"Good luck, she's angry you didn't tell her." I whispered to Ivan. He slightly pushed me, I laughed at him because his cheeks looked like a tomato. We reached the front of the Pack House.
Everyone was lined up Alphabetically of their family name. Kat was still uneasy, she's been the most uneasy ever since I stepped out of the car.
I still don't know what it is. Maybe She feels like danger is about to happen. How could any danger happen, we were a strong Pack. The Royal family was coming so that meant that we'd get help from them if a attack were to happen.
Maybe I just really need to go on a run.
