Fallen Mates
My name is Octiva Mitchell. I am apart of the Dark shadow moon pack. My 18th birthay is coming up along with my first shift. A lot of pressure is on me. I've always felt like I never belonged here. My whole pack are dark color wolves and they toss out anyone that appears a lighter shade. (Hence the name of our pack). Everyone has dark color hair besides me. I have a snow white color. Everyone looks at me diffently because of that. They always make me feel unwanted here. I can't wait til my birthday to finally leave and hunt for my mate.The day finally comes! My birthday. My one way ticket out of this pack that I could never call home. It's tradition for families to be present for the first shift. It's usually done in the woods where the opening of the tree line reaches a small body of water so the moons rays can be absord during each shift. But for me? No one wanted to witness my first shift. They all thought cause of my snow color hair that I'd be kicked out anyways. As It got closer to the time for me to go shift. I head out alone. Once I got there the scenery was so breathe taken. Even tho I was alone. It didn't feel that way. I had a weird feeling someone or something was there watching me. I ignore it and continued with the process.As I looked up to the moon I could feel pain. like my bones breaking to make it's form. I pushed out the feeling and let go. I let my wolf take control. After what seemed like a life time I finally looked at the water to see my reflection. As I specked. I'm a full on white wolf. Tears of joy and sadness began to excape my eyes. But then I heard a low growl in the tree lines. A voice came into my head. "Mate!" A feeling like no other came rushing over me. But before I could process what was going on. It disappeared. Who was that???…
