Chapter 18

“boy hold your tongue all will be explained shortly. Please finish young man I have a feeling you have more to say about your journey here.” the old lady says. Looking around I see all of the others looking at me waiting for me to finish my tale. “um I was told to talk to the queen her kings and the alpha of the green lake pack I’m sorry I can't go against the goddess.” I say to the room. The small she-wolf sitting next to the second me starts laughing so hard I fear she may have a hard time breathing. The older lady stands looking me in the eyes “young man I and young Bridget here are oracles we speak for the goddess so I’m sure us being here is no problem and him well as you can see just looking at him he might be involved here don’t you think?” her face tells me there is no room to argue with her. For the first time since I can remember I feel fear of another and it's in the form of an old lady. I close my eyes taking a breath feeling the room with my wolf, he feels all the auras in the room telling me that what she has said is true.
“Okay, well as I made my way there I’m sure being guided by the goddess by the pull I felt. It was like being tugged in a direction. I spent a few nights here and there in rogue camps. Some of them just looking for a place to call home. But one camp maybe two days walk from here was full of men. These men were very angry about being banished from their packs. They said that their packs were unjustly taken from their alphas and then broken apart. That the wolf that took them over only kept she-wolves and pups. They were so mad about it since the wolf was a pervert that had no need for a bitch in his bed.” I tell them while looking around the room, noticing that the alpha of green lake and his Lune are looking very angry. “so I just kept my mouth shut there. They did not seem the type you tell well the goddess does things for a reason even in mating souls. Father as very admits that I know that above all that mates are mates for a reason and never reject your mate for personal gain. So not wanting to draw attention to myself I did stay the night and the next morning when I was getting ready to leave I heard them say “I hope the rumors are true of the hidden alpha. We need to find him so he can take back what is ours.” I did stay a little longer hoping to hear more, but that was all they said about that so I left and tried to get here as fast as I could. For the first time in my journey, I ran in wolf form to get here faster.” taking a breath I finished my tale. o
The old lady is staring at me and the necklace I am wearing starts to warm more and more feeling like a burn against my chest. Grabbing the blasted thing ripping it off I throw it on the ground. Rubbing my chest I look around as everyone else is looking at the floor. The old lady jumps up so fast grabbing it from the floor. “where did you get this?” she demands the thing glowing in her hand she stares at me “it was in my father's things. When we ran he packed some clothes but this and pictures of me growing up were the only personal things he took with him. I left the clothes for other rogues who may need them and kept the rest. Why?” I ask her she stares at me “what was his name child?” she asks almost in a whisper “William James ma’am.” I tell her and she sinks back down where she was sitting “are you sure that was his name?” she asks tears in her eyes “yes ma’am I have pictures if you want to see.” I tell her opening my bag grabbing the album out. Opening it to my favorite picture of us I hold to book out to her. Shaking hands reach out and take the book. The moment her eyes settle on the picture a sob escapes her lips and tears spill down her cheeks.
“grams are you okay?” the queen asks the old lady taking me by surprise. The old oracle is the queen's grandmother oh my goddess. Nodding her head the old lady hands the album back to me. “yes my dear. It's been a long time since I heard or saw my best friend. I am overjoyed to know he made it out of the attack. And to save a pup and raise him I am beyond happy. This is the crest of the royal line. You see the full moon that is for the queen. And the two half-moons stand for her mates and finally the two crescent moons on the ends are her guardians.” her fingers tracing along the pendent. “this necklace has been handed down from oracle to oracle of the moonbeam pack for generations. Other than my charlie Will was the only other person who knew about this necklace and where it was. I thought it was taken by the blood moon when they raided us.” she says holding it out to the queen “my dear this is yours. It has always been meant for you.” the second her fingers touch the necklace it starts to glow brightly. A light coming from the full moon wrapped around her flowing all around her. Soon the light flows off her to her mates connecting them the light gets brighter, a pattern starts to shape on all of their wrists. The second the light was wrapped all around them it jumped to me and the clone. Engulfing us in warm light. I feel a small burning on my wrist looking down I notice the same pattern as the necklace the queen and kings have is now wrapping around my wrist. Looking around I notice that on the queen the full moon is the biggest, on the kings the half moons are the biggest on theirs, and on my and the clone the crescent moons are the biggest. The marks are like wrist cuffs on us all. Once the last line of the mark settles the light dies down. The old lady has a huge grin on her face. “I knew it the minute you showed up here with the whispering winds pack Isaac. I just had a feeling about you and this proves it. You are one-half of the lost gamma twins and have been blessed to be the queen's guardians.”
Whipping my head to her “lost gamma twins?” I ask. Nodding she tells us her cousin Adam and his wife Jill had a daughter who was fair-skinned with white hair looking the polar opposite of or goddess but with the same beauty. She found her mate in the future gamma of the moonbeam pack a wonderful wolf named Keith Silver. They were happy and close to my son and his mate. They had a set of twin boys with the face of their father and the color of their mother. Just the cutest little things. Barely a week old the night of the attack. Also the first night Jill let them out of her sight.” she tells us, pulling the Isaac guy to me and grabbing my hand. “you, my dear boys are from a long line of moonbeam warriors, and are my cousin grandpups so that makes us family.” she smiles at us. when all of a sudden, I remember my father never correcting people when they believed I was related to an oracle.
