I woke up to the sound of the birds chirping in the early morning. I felt some pain in my legs but ignored it completely. My name is Emma Wood and I am 18. Also one other thing I am a werewolf. I live in a tribe in the mountains where all of us are werewolves. But I am special. I have the power of water and ice which has never been heard of in my tribe. All of the wolves in my tribe have either no power at all or the power of fire.
When everyone transforms into their wolf they are usually brown or red but I am the only white wolf in my tribe. My mom was the last ancestor of the very old water tribe. She fell in love with my dad who was in the fire tribe. So that is why I am different but being different is not something to be proud of. Everyday I get reminded that I am different and not equal to those in my tribe. Rather it is being picked on or having water threw on me they always remind me. I also catch unwanted eyes of men which makes the girls pick on me. I could easily kill them all in a flash but they would go for my dad who can barely defend himself. Because of this I have dealt with it for years.
After I got up out of bed I was greeted by the smell of scrambled eggs and bacon. I walked in the kitchen to find my dad cooking me breakfast. He turned around suddenly with a smile on his face. "Good morning sweetheart" he said looking as happy as can be."Good morning" I replied as I bit into the delicious smelling bacon that was on a plate. My dads name was Mark and after my mom had ran away a couple of years ago he has always looked after me. "Don't forget to get ready for the choosing ceremony today Emma" Mark said in a serious tone.
He knew his daughter did not want to go and if he could let her stay home he would but sadly he could not. The choosing ceremony was where the Great Alpha would pick his mate. He was more than confident his daughter would not get picked and so was she but she still refused to go.
"Why do I have to go?" I said not wanting to go to the annoying gathering just so everyone could look at me with disgust. "If you don't go I will stop training you" Mark said. "You wouldn't" I said not believing him. I had water and ice powers so everyday he would train me on using them and would teach me how to fight. I loved training and he knew that.
Mark knew that his daughter loved her training so If he could threaten her with not letting her he knew she would come with him. Every family in the whole wolf tribe had to attend and if someone did not they were punished.
They had to wear what they were given and then they would stand in the forest all of them with their heads down. Then the Alpha would take his pick. He knew that the Alpha would not pick his daughter but that did not mean the alpha could not touch her. Mark had been to a ceremony where one of the old alphas touched almost every girl he saw in private places. He did not want the same to happen with Emma so he would make her stand in the back with him and hope the alpha picked someone else first.
Emma being threatened with not training had no choice but to go upstairs and get ready. I put on something casual knowing that I will have to change into something else when we get there. After changing and going down the steps to the living room I found my dad and avoided looking at him letting him know I was not happy about going. We walked for about 5 minutes going to the ceremony. We did not live very far from where it was held so we decided to just walk.
When we got there there was already about 200 people there and that was only about a fourth of all the people that would come. We walked around until we saw people in black suits handing us all black shirts and pants. He handed me a long sleeve shirt with black leggings and then handed my dad a black short sleeve shirt with black joggers. They had buildings set up where we could change so I found the girls and went inside. I saw my dad had walked off to the men's so I went in and found a room with a door and went inside.
It smelled like wood and pines and I loved the sent. As I changed I found that surprisingly everything was my size. It hugged my body comfortably and made me look feminine. I walked out hoping to hurry up and get it over with already so I could go back home and get more sleep. I found my dad and saw that the clothes on him were a little big. With what he was wearing he looked 29 not 49. This made me suddenly laugh. As I quickly recovered to a straight face I saw that many more people were here.
I then suddenly heard a mechanic voice call us to the middle of the woods near the lake. We walked over and as I went to go near the middle someone yanked my arm. It was my dad he had a serious look on his face. Seeing that look I did not question him and suddenly went back to where I was standing.
Then my wolf ears picked up a faraway sound of footsteps and I saw a handsome and muscular figure go out onto the raised platform. I gulped knowing who it was. The supreme alpha.
