The Jade Wolf Prophecy

Chapter Three- Rose POV

    I laid on my bed and cried. I always was the quiet girl, who was good at school and liked being at school. Why does this happen to me? I mean come on, how could someone like me have all this power when I am so quiet. I wish I had someone to talk to. But no one would believe it and what if it puts my parents in danger. All of my thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. 

    “Honey can I come in, we need to talk,” my mom asked, I could tell she was trying to keep it together. 

    I wiped my face, “sure mom, come on in.”

    “First of all, I am sorry you are finding all of this out like this. I know it is a lot to take. Everything we have done is to keep you and us safe.” My mom said, her eyes were brimmed with tears again. I can feel her emotions and right now guilt is the strongest. 

    “I know mom, I am not mad at you. It’s just a lot all at once. I am not sure how to feel or what to do. It’s just a lot.” I said, trying to be as nice and calm as possible. I didn’t want to upset my mom anymore than she already was. 

    “Listen, I know you do not want to, but we need you to do homeschooling. We don’t know the angle of this teacher or any other threat that is right under our nose. We need to stay in pack lands at all times, unless you are with us. This teacher might not be the only person that has been following you. We also don’t know if he has friends. Max said that your Home Room period we can have you train in Magic. In the mornings you will train with your dad. Max said you can participate in school activities but we will add security with our warriors to make sure you are safe.”

    “Mom will the pack hate me?”

    “Oh no honey. Only some of the elders hold on to that hate. That’s just because they almost lost the battle and they are sore losers.” My mom said, smiling at herself, as if she is thinking of a funny memory. 

    Then she added, “Rose, you have a very important part to play in all of our futures. But we need to keep you safe until you are ready.” With that she got off my bed and left me to think to myself. 

    What was I going to do? I just wanted to turn eighteen, get my wolf, finish high school, and find my mate like everyone else. I don’t want to have any influence of others future. Why me? What will my mate think of me?

    All of the sudden I felt a surge of energy rush through me, then pain followed it. I felt like my body was on fire. I could hear my bones start to c***k. I screamed out in pain but nothing was helping me. The pain was so much I was starting to see spots. My parents and the Stevenson’s rush into my room. I am laying on the floor crying out in pain. 

    “Oh my goddess, she is changing, her strong emotions have triggered her wolf early. We need to get her outside.” My mom said. 

    “Why is it so painful?” My dad asked. He tried to hide it but I could hear the concern in his voice.. 

    “Because her magic is being activated at the same time.” My mom replied, worry laced in every word. 

    “Let’s get her outside so her wolf won’t feel trapped,” Molly said.

    My dad carried me down the stairs and outside into our garden. Suddenly everything went black. 

    I woke up some time later, but I felt completely different. I looked down and instead of seeing my hands I saw white paws. White as snow, they were big and beautiful. My senses heightened completely. I could see specks of dust in the air, I could smell a deer a mile away. My hearing was so enhanced that I heard conversations at the pack house and cars driving past on the main road. Everything felt completely different, even the dirt between my paws, was cool and soft.

     “Hello Rose, it is nice to finally be able to talk to you. I am Jasmine, I’m your wolf, your other half. I am here to help you through all of this. No one can hurt us if we work together. Together we are strong. I am sorry you felt so threatened that it triggered me a little early. Your magic is very strong though.”

    “Jasmine, I am so glad you are here. I am so glad I have someone to talk to about all of this. I won’t be alone. But Jasmine, I am not a fighter and everyone is acting like I need to be.” My wolf gave me a knowing smile, as I said all of this. 

    “Rose, you are so strong and have so many good traits. You just need to have the confidence to be able to access it all. You need to fight someday but today isn’t the day. Today you need to understand where your family is coming from. Take their advice. Train, because if you aren’t willing to do what needs to be done, many innocent people will die.”

    “Okay Jasmine. I will. Thanks for being here and being my friend.”

    “I was always here, watching from afar but I am glad we can talk now. I am glad I can be here to help you through these struggles.” My wolf said, sounding more wise than a young wolf of only eighteen sounds.
