Early that morning
Eli woke up to the sound of maids gossiping about who he will choose at the ceremony. He got out of bed and heard a knock on the door. "Come in" he said. The door slowly opens to reveal a teenaged boys face. Eli immediately knew who it was. It was James, his beta. "What is it" Eli spoke angrily to the person who disturbed him early in the morning.
"I came to inform you about your ceremony today" This immediately lighted Eli's mood. A few weeks ago while he was walking around the forest he saw a beautiful girl shooting a bow. He watched from afar as she hit the bulls eye every time. He went to turn to walk away when she suddenly looked around. Thinking that she would see him and and annoy him like all the other girls he hid not wanting to be pestered. He then saw a very very rare sight.
She was controlling water. She manipulated it into a sharp looking dagger then grabbed a hold of it and froze it into a deadly weapon. Eli had never seen this before and it was one of the very few things that sparked his interest. He continued to watch her use her power until suddenly she fell. He caught himself right before he went to jump down from the tree he was on. He watched as she slowly got up and walked away.
He was a little lost on why she fell. She was a great fighter and very light on her feet so it made no sense why she would fall. He walked back home and kept thinking about her the whole night. Then he made up his mind that he would pick her for the ceremony.
At the ceremony
Eli walked onto stage and immediately looked for the girl. He was disappointed when he did not see her. He then walked along the long rows of people looking for her long blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes. He walked near the last rows and kept looking. He then spotted a girl matching the description and went over to her. It was her he had finally found her.
Hey guys sorry for the short chapter I promise the others will be longer
