A woman is in the portrait. Her features are soft and her expression was subtle. Her hair was half-braided, and her face does resemble the younger face of Grandma Elizabeth who also resembles me. There is no doubt that I am a descendant of this woman. That's why I really believe what Landon said that this Elena Ross is the mother of Grandma Elizabeth—whom I knew as Celestine.
"She is Elena Ross," Landon said. "Back when she was a mortal–"
"She was a human who went through transition to become a vampire?"
"Yes. She spent her nineteen years of existence as a human, but not an ordinary human. She was an assassin under a big guild of asssassins back in her time. But then, she soon realized that she was mated to a werewolf. An alpha of a big pack—the pack where your friend's pack came from."
"I am confused. You said she had gone through transition and became a vampire. Does that mean she married a werewolf, the alpha you are talking about?"
