The Golden Wolf

Cynthia’s pov It was a dark starry friday night. With a cool breeze. But that didn't bother us because we are shifters. I'm a werewolf but I've never shifted. Werewolves don't usually sift until their 16, but it can happen once you turn 13. Werewolves find their mates when they turn 18. Mates are your other half, you have a very strong connection to them. It’s Love at first site in most cases. I'm 15 and my birthday is in a week on October 31st, Aka, Halloween. For supernaturals it's the one night humans won’t remember we exist. Which works out good in my favor I’ll be shifting on Halloween. Legends have it that 13 powerful covens of witches cast the spell to let supernatural beings have fun and be free to shift. The humans minds are fuzzy the next day and they can’t recall the supernatural things that happened. It's a big celebration throughout the supernatural world.  I was with my best friends Maze and Freya. Maze is a dragon shifter. They shift at the age of 18 and are able to find their mates then. Freya was a werecat - witch hybrid. A black tiger with gold eyes and gold strips to be exact. She shifted last month. Maze is 16 and Freya is also 16. Shifters have a voice in their head that comes after their first shift. It's your basest instincts but also a big part of who you are.  My friends passed me the bottle of fireball. As I took a big drink we heard a stick snap a half mile away.  Freya’s werecat Hope came out and said “The guards are coming” We packed up our stuff and took off into the woods. We knew the guards were close so we stopped to hide the fireball in a pile of leaves that was by a large tree. As we got back up we saw that we were surrounded by the guards. We lowered our heads in respect and to let them know we weren’t going to run. Among the guards was the beta Cain Peirce. He was a large black and white wolf. The three of us closed our eyes as he shifted into his human form and put some basketball shorts on.  “Hello Beta Cain,” Maze said. “What can we do for you?” Freya asked. “Wanna tell me what you were hiding in the leaves girls.” he asked. “Nothing!” We all said in unison. Making us look guilty. “Then you won't mind me locking,” He replied to us. While walking towards the leaves. He dug through them and found the almost empty bottle of fireball. When he looked at us we knew we were busted. “There wasn’t that much in there when we got it,” I say.  “Mhm sure we’ll let Alpha Klaus decide if you're lying.” He says, “Lets go.” It takes us about 45 minutes to get to the pack house because we drug out the time as much as we could. When we got to the Alpha’s office Cain knocked on the door. There was a “come in,” and a yawn muffled through the door. We entered the office and lowered our heads in respect for our Alpha. “What brings the 3 musketeers into my office at this hour?” he asked. I looked up at the clock and saw it was 1:37 a.m. “We were out by the border, Alpha,” I say. Cain looked at us and said, “doing what?” “Drinking fireball.” Maze answered. “There wasn’t much left in the bottle when we got it.” Freya said quietly.  “And where was that?” Klaus asked. “The Bar,” I reply, I stole it.”  “You are excused Cain. You may leave.” “Yes Alpha,” Cain replies as he leaves. “Now what do with you three?” The Alpha asked us. When none of us answered him he continued. “Maze you will help the omegas with dinner and dinner dishes for two weeks, everynight. Also on weekends you will help with lunch” Cooking for a whole pack takes hours. “Okay,” Maze grumbled.  We heard a growl and looked up and saw the alphas green blue eyes are now cobalt blue. His wolf Nick had taken over. “DO NOT GET AN ATTITUDE WITH US! I’M YOU’R ALPHA!” Nick growled. “Yes Alpha,” Maze whimpered. “Go to your room,” Nick growled. She bowed silently and left. After that Nick gave control back to Klaus. “Now for you Freya you will help the omegas clean after school for 5 hours everyday and on weekends 7 hours starting  at 1 o’clock.” Yawn, “for 2 weeks.” “Yes alpha,” Freya said, accepting her punishment. “Cynthia you will run errands for me for 2 weeks.” “Okay Alpha,” I say. “Will we have to work on Halloween? It’ll be my 16th birthday.” “I’ll decide tomorrow. Get some sleep. You Guys start tomorrow. Good night. You may leave.”  “Good night Alpha,” Freya and I say in unison.
