EPSILON

PROLOGUE

-ROBIN-

When it comes to my height, I'm always self-conscious. Six feet and three inches is how tall I am. It is typical in comparison to male wolves, who could reach seven feet tall, but as a she-wolf, my height is enormous. Yes, there are others, but not as many as me, who are like a walking tower that constantly intimidates everyone.

Seriously, I despised it.

I had always wanted to be cute like a normal female since I was a puppy, but dang it! That never happened, because I am out of the ordinary, not just because I am lofty, but also because I was deemed a boy when my mother gave birth to me.

Do you believe my parents or the pack doctor erred? No way, no how! They did not do so.

My father had always wanted a son to succeed him as Alpha of Spark Galore, so he decided to raise me as a boy against my will. He went to great lengths to conceal the truth, to conceal my true gender for the sake of power.

Then, they sent me to the east side of the territory, where our private land was located. There, I was nurtured by the Epsilons who pledged their lives to protect me and kept my dark secret hidden until their last breaths. Every single day, those faithful hounds trained me mercilessly so that even if they weren't there, I'd be able to protect myself against the rogues. That I'd be able to survive if I find myself in a difficult position.

EPSILONS.

They are the pack officers/enforcers/warriors who safeguard the pack and its leader. They were the ones that stayed by my side while I was feeling lonely since my parents were too preoccupied with dominating our land.

Regardless of how strict they were during training, they had been my best friends. I would cherish and be grateful to them for the rest of my life. Even when I decided to flee from home, their wise counsel and invaluable lessons saved me on several occasions.

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to return to Spark Galore and meet them again because I was labeled a rogue the moment I left our land, or so I believed until five years later, a month before my seventeenth birthday when my father's devoted warriors paid me a surprise visit.

"It's time for you to go back, Master Robin."

And thus my exciting renegade existence came to an end.
