"Selene, my daughter, please hear us out. I know we don't deserve it, but your sister is pregnant and-"
I held up my hand to stop the man named Benicio Dixon from speaking. Surely they didn't call me here just so they can dum...

She pushed aside the fatigue and watched with intense interest as the woman smiled up at us. Her ears perked up and straightened, body tense and bushy dark grey tail raised.
Her beady black eyes skimmed over the red cloak that Ivory wore.
"I came here to speak with Alpha Crestfield. Nothing less and nothing more."
Came Ivory's soft response to my wolf's unease. My wolf relaxed her shoulders, taking Ivory's words in stride and when recognizing no lie in her tone, huffed before settling down in my mind. She sent forth waves of caution before resting her head on her paws.

Raizel's deep voice cut from behind me, his arm that wrapped around my waist pulling me closer into his chest until I was practically crushed against him. My wolf sighed in contentment, basking in his warmth but never letting her eyes wander from Ivory.
Ivory hums but the smile on her face remained.
"I think it's best we take this up in your office."
The witch let her eyes glide over the rest of us, taking note of who was here and listening in.
"There's much to explain."

"I'm sure you're all confused. Possibly not even aware of what's going on, but before I start, I must tell you that everything you're about to hear is true. All has been written down and recorded by the Goddess. She's shown me the memories herself through visions. Nothing I tell you is fabricated or twisted with some truths added in the mix. Whether or not you believe me is up to you, but I swear on the Goddess and my loyalty to the Order that I'm truthful in all I'll say."
