Present time.
Four years later.
*Caitlin's POV*
I woke up 5:30 today, here I am still at the park house by 7:30. Antonis has been getting me dressed up and applying light make up for that long.
Guess what, I made it. I had been chosen along with a few others, to go train in Crystal Park. I guess they were about seven others from my park. Well, that was about a month ago. We had a break so I came home and I'm going back today.
"Mische, hurry I'm running late!" I yelled a little at her, trying as much as possible not to blink as she applied the finishing touches, which was the mascara.
"Almost done, big sis. Just the finishing touches and am..."
"Done?" I asked getting getting little frustrated.
She applied a little gloss to my pink plum lips.
"Yup, I'm done." She said excitedly.
"Check it out." She added swiftly.
I stood from the dressing tool and moved to the standing mirror to have a look at all she had done. If it was worth two hours of my lifetime, I was going to kill her.
I looked at my reflection wearing yellow flowery patterned gown, which reached mid thigh. It was quite short if you asked me, but Antonia forced me to wear it. Sleevless and a wide neck line. A pair of black flats and my hair packed up in a ponytail.
I looked absolutely beautiful.
"Sis, you look...go charm some boys with your beauty." She said as she gave out a loud giggle, one of the weirdest I have ever heard if you ask me.
"Stip teasing me. I'm not that beautiful." I answered.
Call me a girl with low self esteem, your business. I knew how I looked at to me I wasn't all so flawless.
"Yes you are." She insisted.
" ...besides, that isn't my goal . All u want is to get stronger, win awards and make mom and dad proud." I responded.
"Sure...but you need a little fun in your life." She says before getting cut off by a loud banging of my room door. The door banged the wall in a loud thud, which echoed all through the room.
I knew only one person who could be so noisy and clumsy.
Anthony popped his head through the door frame.
I'm so sure he just finished doing something evil. Such crazy siblings I had. Was I complaining? No, never, I loved them. I was indeed boring and I needed a little fun in my life. They were fun.
He had a wide smirk on his lips. That just made my assumption much more defined. I was sure he did do something evil, because the way he was breathing could tell he ran as fast as possible.
"Twinne, big sis. I made it." He said as he kept on panting, before jumping right into my bed.
"What!" Antonia snapped. She hated disturbance during our girl time.
"I got miss maddison's newly baked cookies." He said as he waved a nylon, which was sure to be filled with cookies.
Antonia and I looked at each other before we said in unison.
"You petty their."
"Who wants some?" He said with a crooked smile on his cute little face.
"Me!"
"Me!!"
Antonia and I quickly dragged it from his grip and reached out for the pure heavenly taste.
I was about to have the third one, when I heard mother's voice at the door.
"Caitlin? I'm coming in" She announced as she barged unto the room. Well, I see where Anthony gets his barging in skills from.
We stuffed the last pieces into our mouths and hid the nylon under the pillow. And we all gave out our brights smiles.
"You cunny children..what did you steal from chef maddison this time?" She scolded.
"Nothing mother. " we shouted in unison.
"Your ohones...one, two...!" She yelled as she stretched her hands out to recieve them.
"We took cookies that Anthony stole from chef maddison. " Antonia and I said.
"Anthony! Didn't I warn you about pranking maddison, you are reducing the ration for the other park members...caitlin you partook in this by eating it...antonia you taught him all this.!!" Mother yelled.
"Blame them, mother!" Anthony said with a crooked smile across his face.
"Sorry mom."
"Mother, I'm really sorry." I mumbled.
"Shut up, your phone now!.." Mother continued to yell.
"Who?" We all asked as we hid our phones behind our backs.
"Anthony." She continued. Anthony's eyes almost fell off their sockets.
"But mom..." Anthony whinned.
"No buts. Now!" She said as she collected his phone, which he was very much reluctant to give to her.
I stood up from the bed, headed to my
wardrobe and pulled out my black versace backpack. Sometimes I wonder how they get brand stuff here.
"Mom, I'm off to school." I said as I leaned towards her and gave her a pevk on her right cheek.
"Bye, dear. Till the ball."
"Yes mother. "
"Come home, okay. I will dress you up myself." Antonia said excitedly.
"Sure thing."
"Anthony ...sorry for your lost..." I trailed off as I gave out a little giggle.
"It's not fair." He whinned.

(CRYSTAL PARK.)
"Caitline...over here!" Issabella shouted through the classroom window. That bitch always takes risks. I know what you are thinking....yup she is my bestie, since one month ago. When I got into Crystal moon pack training academy, I was kinda belittled and was always accused of bribing to get in. All because I was yet to have a wolf. And that was how I meet her, she stood up for me.
...back to Issabella. She is well about, five feet four, tall for a girl. But not as tall as I was. I was standing at five feet six. She has dark brown eyes, black long hair which she packed into a piggy tail style. Has a wolf named lizzy, her wolf eyes colour is sea green and she was a hybrid. A mixture of dragon rider and werewolf.
She is indeed sweet, too clingy, looks like a rude bit her but the total opposite. That's why, I call her bitch. She was the first person I talked to when I got to Crystal moon pack and what's best is that, she is also my roommate.
I moved sluggishly through the corridor as I finally got to my class. The omega class. I know. What you are thinking...I'm weak. But just the exact opposite. I'm here because I just don't have a wolf.
I popped my head through the door frame, to get a look at the history teacher's position in the class.
Oops...busted.
I guess he saw me first.
I'm always late to his class, all because of antonia, well not always her. Sometimes I wake up late and others I just don't want to come early. All history classes are boring and Mr. Olna class wasn't an exception.
I bowed my head, as I moved towards his direction for his daily load of ranting.
"You omegas should put in more effort! Caitlin Snow stop this your nonsense...yes you are smart, topping the class in everything but stop coming late to my classes. What I will do to you is going to be worst than you can ever imagine. You will regret coming late to my classes for the rest of your life..." I said in my thoughts waiting to repeat each word after him.
But today's syllables were totally different.
"Caitlin Snow, you will have to get eighty points in your history essay, or I'm not passing you to the training teacher, which is the physical combat. Who is coming next week for the welcoming ceremony and coronation of the next alpha. You are to submit this two days after the coronation. " He ended with his weirdly shaped smirk on his wrinkled face and bulky eyes.
Total yuck.
"What?!?...but you said the pass mark was sixty..."
"It is for the other students..but you, eighty or I'm not signing your result. Without my signature, no training." He said as he turned to the board and kept on writing away.
The bell rang for the end of the period, before I could even sit and get my textbook out. I guess I was super late today. Issabella moved to my desk and have me one of her famous bear hugs. She sure was a hugger.
"Sorry bae... I guess Mr olna really hates you." She said as she almost chose me with a mere hug.
"You can say that again...like how am I going yo do the project...writing the history of a persob we have never seen or heard of, or even been taught about. That's crazy." I said as I ran my fingers through my blonde hair.
"I know a little about him." Issabella said with a smirk across her face.
"How?" I asked, my voice full of pure curiosity.
"Your bestie happenes to be friends with a lot of seniors. I will be glad to tell you all I know, just don't interrupt. " She said. I just nodded and shifted my desk a lot closer to her's.
"...his parents both died when he was just six, by a group of rougues. The worst assemble of rougues ever. They were strong, only three moon goddess knows how. They suck and absorb the strongest alpha's and luna's blood and cultivation. His parents were the strongest and the most targeted. And soon, they finally got them, at their weakest state. Eclipse.
The fact that they were still strong shows that they derived their powers from something else and not only the moon.
Their leader killed the Alpha and luna, right before him, the new alpha, their son. But before he could finish , and kill him also. Our great alpha killed a thousand and five hundred soldiers in a blink of an eye...we aren't so sure what method he used, but some said a gigantic sword of fire. Buy that might be false or true. He is very strong, cold blooded killer and doesn't care about what any other person thinks about him. She his bonus mark, he is extremely handsome, like one of the Greek gods. Im guessing the moon goddess took out a whole day to make him, absolutely perfect.He hasn't found his mate yet though."
"Wow, I will really like him yo teach Mr smr combat moves."I said excitedly.
"Really? Of all I said, the only thing you picked was that he was good in combat...you forgot the key point, catty, he his handsome and hot and..."She said as she was already drooling at whatever she was imaging in her head.
"Durrh...I don't give two shits." I rolled my eyes
"...his combat skills are indeed good. He has been trying since six, by the best of the best." She said in a high pitched tone. Mostly occurs when she is overly excited.
"Cool!...but I feel for him though...he is just like me but a lot worst. Both parents at the same time and he was a lot younger." I said as sadness washed over me all of a sudden.
"Hey, you promised not to be gloomy again..." She said as she hugged me.
"So...about the ball...you can be lucky k enough to meet your mate." She said wiggling her brows at me.
"Shut up!" She really knows how to lighten my mood.
