The twelve werewolf elders, who were seated in the front seats stood up and approached me.
One of the elders, who was wearing a long greenish gown, was holding the shadows' pack's golden staff in her hand.
I recognised her without a single doubt. She is the late Alpha's elder sister and Anastasia's aunt, Penelope. She was much stronger than the previous Alpha and was the next in line to become the Alpha, but she rejected her right and allowed her younger brother to become the Alpha. 'Why is she here today? Because she's an elder? But as far as I can remember, she has never for once visited Anastasia after the previous Alpha and Luna were murdered'. I pondered.
Lady Penelope handed the Golden staff to me. I hesitated at first, but after I stared at Beta Damien, I accepted the staff from her.
