My mom has kepthfrom school today. She is a teacher and also took the day off to spend with me. We're currently sitting at the table, eating my favorite breakfast, french toast.
“Angel, honey, you need to calm down. She'll be here when it’s time. All wolves wake at different times of the day.” I’m bouncing up and down in my seat, barely able to contain my excitement.
“| know, but Mom, what do you think she'll be like? Will she be like me? Will she like me?”

I’m currently only five feet tall. Hence the nickname. My mother is a decent 5’9” so I’m hoping to hit a good growth spurt in a few years and maybe get to her height or taller.
“Thanks Daddy.” He smiles and sits down to have breakfast with us before heading out to training. “So, what are my favorite girls up to today?” He asks.
“Well,” my mother starts. “This morning, we’re going shopping for scamping gear, so we can take a weekend soon and all

Mom and | spent the morning shopping. We got all kinds of camping equipment, sextra blankets to fight against the Minnesota snow when we go camping in winter. Even with our wolves, the winters get really cold here.
We're making cookies and I’m getting nervous. | still haven’t heard my wolf. What if | don’t get her. It happens sometimes. It’s rare, but it has happened that a person born of two werewolves doesn't get a wolf spirit. As the day has gone on, I’ve gotten increasingly worried that | won't get my wolf. What if the Moon Goddess doesn’t think I’m worthy? What if | did something to make her mad and now | won't get my wolf. What if...
“What if you’re worrying for nothing?‘ A voice says.
I stop and look at my mother. “What did you say?” My mother looks at me, then smiles. “I,” she stresses the word, “didn’t say anything. Perhaps someone else did?”
It takes only a second forto understand what she is saying. “Are you my wolf?” | say it out loud. My mother has stopped to watch me.

My mother hugs me, looking into my eyes. Her eyes darken, her wolf, Rain, coming forward. “What is your name, little one?” My mother asks with Rain’s voice overlaying making it deeper.

So, | relax and let her cforward. “l am Alessia.” My mother gasps.
“Mother? What’s wrong?” Why does she look like that?
She gulps audibly. “Nothing sweetheart. It’s nice to meet you Alessia. We can’t wait to see your wolf form this evening.”

She steps away from me, looking distracted. “Honey, can you keep track of the cookies while | step away for a few minutes? I’ll be right back.”
