* Flashback *
Valerie my oldest sister sits down next to me. She was the smartest out of all of us, and never let me forget it.
" I saw your report card. Whew. I mean I got A's easily but the highest you got was a B-. "
I groan. " Sorry i'm not as smart as you. Why are you talking to me. "
" Oh. I'm leaving for university next week. "
" Where you going. "
She smiles. " Roxdite. "
I roll my eyes. " Of course. "
" If you try harder, you could actually go to college or university. "
" Whats the point. "
" Whatever bastard. "
I wince when she says it. She gets up and walks away.
I hate my life.
My parents aren't actually mates, they are chosen mates. It was arranged when they were young. My mother never liked my father; she despised him. She gave him 3 beautiful children, 3 beautiful, strong, intelligent children.
Then she met her real mate. She hid this from my father and tried to run away with her mate, but her father stopped her. He said that all she had to do was tell the truth, and they would've let her go with him. But she lied and ran away.
They still offered her chance to leave with her mate, but she lied to her mate as well. She fed him horrible lies and twisted everything. She said that she was held captive, and was forced to be with my father.
When the truth came out, her mate was devastated. She could've left the marriage at anytime. Her mate was torn and angry, he felt so betrayed that he rejected her. He left and she begged to for father to take her back. He took her back, but she wouldn't be luna anymore.
They were gonna announce that she wasn't going to luna again, but they found out she was pregnant. They both knew I was her mates, and my mom wanted to get rid of me. My father fought against it, and I was born. I never lived up to my siblings and everyone shames me for it.

" Lilith are you sure its here. " Josh asks annoyed.
I stop walking. " You look for it then. Come on go. "
He glares at me.
I start walking again.
" Stop. " Thoelia shouts.
I stop again and look around. Its nighttime now and everything is back, and trees surround us.
" s**t. " I say out loud.
" Whats wrong. " Sylvie asks.
" I know where it is. "
" Where. "
I point to a tree. " Its in the tree. "
The tree is white with bright purple flowers, that reflect the moonlight. If it was a full moon I wonder what it would look like. I tilt my head. Its kinda like the Moon Goddesses wolf. A pure white wolf with bright purple eyes.
I slowly walk up to it and touch it. I can feel power radiating from it. I wonder what relic is in this tree. I can tell Wolves have a close connection to it. I sigh. I know we need to get the relic but I don't wanna destroy this tree.
" How are we gonna get it out. " Josh asks.
I shrug. " I don't wanna destroy the tree though. "
" Why. " He says annoyed.
I think and then realization hits me and I step back. " This is the Moon Goddess tree. "
" The Moon Goddess tree? " Kendra asks confused.
" Yes. A potion can be made from the flowers to turn humans into werewolves. The tree forms around the amulet of creation. "
" Cool. How do we get it out. " Sylvie says.
I sigh. " We have to wait for a full-moon and the amulet will appear. It will show up on the trunk of the tree and you can just grab it. "
" Why can't we just dig it out. " Josh says annoyed.
" The tree will wither and die and its dangerous. " I glare at him.
He scoffs.
I shake my head a bit. " The full-moon isn't that far awa- "
I stop talking and snap my head to the right and growl. " Rogues. "
" What!? " Everyone shouts
" Rogues. "
Everyone gets in fighting mode but Sylvie just cowards slightly. Its easy to tell she can't fight. Soon rogues come out of trees and surround us. A naked man comes out of the trees.
" Well, well, what do we have here. " He grins. " Trespassers. "
I chuckle slightly. " This is not your territory. Plus rogues like you don't get territory. "
He growls. " You think you can get out of this alive, we have you surrounded. "
" Sure you will, you will defile this blessed land. "
He takes a step closer and notices the tree.
" Moon tree. " He growls.
All of the rogues back away.
" You may be mindless, but you will not go against something made by the moon goddess. "
He growls. " You sure about that. "
I put my arms out making a t with my body. " Do it then. Come on. "
He growls and back up growling. " Next time I see you, you are dead. "
I scoff. " Sure. "
He slowly backs up and the rogues follow and they all soon disappear. I look back at the tree.
" I don't wanna spend more time with that pack. " Ertha says.
" We wont. We can just camp out here till the full-moon. " I say.
Everyone groans and complains but we decided to camp by the tree and wait.
