Chapter 24 - Relieved but Restless

***Dahlia's Perspective***

After getting into an argument with Lockhart, I tell him I'm done with our friendship. Why is he acting so strange all of a sudden? After our disagreement, I went back to my parents but they were asleep. I decided to go back to my room and get some much needed rest. With everything that happened, I'm proud of me. I never would have thought I would be so, brave, courageous and fearless in the face of all the uncertainty and danger. Maybe, I am embracing my Luna nature? I'm really tired as it just passed midnight. I can feel my body grow more and more tired. It must be because my adrenaline has stopped and I'm relieved my parent's are fine and survived. I now have 6 days until my transformation. It use to scare the hell out of me, but I've noticed, gradually I'm starting to accept it and become more comfortable with it. I finally reach my room and decide to take a hot bath. I didn't realize how badly my muscles ached. The water caressed all my aches and pains away. It was nice and hot, the ocean was freezing cold. I am curious what the Island would be like in warmer months, probably paradise. I've been thinking of somethings lately. Why do my eyes turn red and why can I see spirit wolves? Why is everyone seem to becoming weird around me? "Raven Star, are you awake"? I ask. "Yes, my dear Luna, what is it?" replied my wolf. I think hard about what I want to ask. I have so many questions. "Why did our Ancestors eyes turn Crimson and is that why the wolf spirit is named Raven Blood?" I ask Raven Star. "Hmm.... let me think on this" my wolf pauses for a few months. "Crimson eyes belonged to our forefather because he had the unique ability of blood lust, making him more crazed on the battle field, many wars were fought for peace" Raven Star replied. "Furthermore, Crimson eyes and Spirit wolf are one of the same in relation" my wolf replied. "I see... I'm also curious why our last names and our Spirit wolves all share Raven" Dahila asked her wolf. "Throughout our lineage and history, every Alpha or Luna has transformed into the blackest of wolves; Black as a Raven" My spirt wolf said. "I see... why is it I can see spirit wolves?" Dahlia asked. "The selected leader Alpha or Luna, will always obtain this ability, it is a gift from the moon goddess, from when we ruled as kings and queens" my spirit wolf replied. "Will I be a black wolf when I transform?" Dahlia asked. "The likelihood is strong, but no one know until the unveiling of the shift" my wolf replied. "My dear Luna, please get some rest soon, we have much to do before then" my wolf stated. "I promise I will soon Raven Star" Dahila replied. "Why is it, some are acting weird around me?" Dahila asked. "Being a Luna is a powerful thing, many underlings of wolves will want to be with you, to mate with you. It will be this way until you're mated. The urge will be at it's worst when you fall prey to heat. I think since your so close to the shift, your scent is starting to surface. It will be irresistible" my wolf replied. "What is an underling"? Dahlia asked. "Everything in the world of wolf has it's proper order. On top is Luna or Alpha, followed by Beta then Omega, lastly is Deltas. There are also separate sectors like; Soilders report to Beta command through Luna or Alpha. In addition, you have medical, capable warriors but better at treating and healing. Medical answers directly to Luna or Alpha. Deltas provide the pack with crops and grains, they report to Beta's " Raven Star replied. "I'm so glad you take the time to teach me. Even with your help I know there is plenty more I need to learn, a lot of it keeps me awake at night" Dahlia said with a sigh. "My dear Luna, I will always be by your side until the end, never hesitate to ask me anything" Raven Star replied. "Thank you" I replied. After talking with Raven Star, I start to grow incredibly tired. I get out of the tub and make my way to the closet to grab an over sized T for bed. After putting my shirt on, I make my way to bed. It takes no time at all before I drift off to slumber, at least my mind is at ease, for now.
