Chapter 15
Making it to the university a week before the rest of the first years. Give me a few days with Luna or head mistress Bronwyn. Most of my time here I won't have any one-on-one time with her so we opted to have a few days before the term starts. Pulling up to the building I see both alpha Liam and Luna Bronwyn waiting for me. Jumping out running to the throwing my arms around them. It's been only been a few months since I saw them but they are family. And in a week they won't be family for as long as I am here. “let's get you unpacked then how does dinner sound.” nodding my head as I pull away. Uncle Liam opens the passenger door. Picking up Allister. Yelping I jump and snatch him up shocking them both. “ash?” he asks raising a brow at me. Cradling Allister to my chest I look up “sorry he's well ummm it's hard to explain but he's alive.” looking at me with odd expressions I explain to them about Allister.
Aunt Bronwyn is quiet the whole time we are taking my bags to my dorm room. Opening I notice a second bed in the room. Confused I look over at them. “well as you know in covens we have high priests and priestesses. Since you are not either and we don’t actually know much about the structure of fae. And I know you’re a future alpha but you didn’t want to be heir here so we put you in a shared room.” my aunt babbles. Nodding in understanding and I would think me changing dorms last minute had a hand in my room situation. As long as she keeps her hands off my stuff and never touches Allister I am good.
I'll be sharing a room with a young witch whose brother started here when the school opened. Both coming from a coven far to the east their magic is heavy on the water side of things living in a coastal range. From the things piled on her bed, I will say I get a strong sense of book worm so we might not be too close. My side of the room is already unpacked and ready for me. My fathers had sent extra money to have aunt Bronwyn buy what I needed for the room and schooling. Everything here will be donated to the university once I am done. The same will go for when Addie and Jordan start here. This is not something that others have to do they can of course but we agreed that if I won't need it after then someone else who does can have it. It's part of the no wolf left behind out program.
Stashing my bags under my bed I place Allister on my bed nestled in on my pillow with a blanket. I have no idea if he feels anything in the stone state he's in or if he's really a stone figure right now. Following them out of my dorm room to their house. I see their small baseball team running around the yard. You only need to hear how many pups they have to know how much they cant keep their hands off each other. Uncle Liam is the first born of 18 pups aunt Bridget is the youngest and the surprise pup. Their youngest is a set of twins who just turned twelve. When they see me they scream for the rest of the herd. Their house is just on the outside of the school border. The rules for no one under 18 apply to all the wolves. This side of the school is the new whispering winds packcoven the lands. The packcoven members all work either at the university or the pack. Some of the whispering winds pack members work for the royals or for my fathers. The central packs all look after each other.
With a whistle from uncle Liam and all ten of his pups are heading to us. The oldest is 17-year-old Kelley future alpha of the whispering winds packcoven. She will start at the university next fall. Setting down to eat and go over my new course schedule. A lot of things changed when I woke up with more powers than before. After dinner aunt, Bronwyn, and I went for a walk to talk over all she knew of familiars but what she knows is only about witch familiars. A witch makes a contract with an animal companion who was born with a link to the ley lines of the earth. So they are your typical cat, dog, bird, snake, or another animal. So her knowledge of drake’s is just what was head in books. She made it clear she would love to meet him if he would allow it.
The walk back to my dorm was quiet giving me lots of time to think. Making it to the dorm I am hit with a scent that has me stumbling. My wolf is dancing around inside me as I stand there in a panic. Frozen in place when the door opens and a tall pale-skinned god of men walks out the door. Seeing me he stops. Shock all over his face as he stares at me. Before I can say anything he is rushing me. Grabbing my arm and yanking me to the side of the building he demands. “who are you?” his tone has me growling out at him. His eyes widen in surprise looking at me. “a wolf. Goddess what the hell did I do wrong a fucking wolf and a bitch at that. Nope. What is your name?” he sneers. Looking at him I gulp and say “Ashley winters” “I chad Wilson of the wild meadow coven reject you Ashley winters as my fated one and mate.” a slight stab goes through me at his word alone as my real name is not winters and I am an alpha heir so his words of rejection won't work but I square my shoulders look him in the eye “I Ashley winters reject your rejection” spitting back at him yanking my arm away. “look here bitch I don’t know what game your playing but I will not now or ever be with a bitch. If you tell anyone one that your my fated I will make like hell for you.” shoving me into the wall he seethes out “and you will accept the rejection by the time the term starts” shoving my shoulder hard before storming off.
That’s what you think mate.
