Phoenix:
I fastened my mask in place and took a step back from the mirror. For a moment, I felt sad for hiding my face.
"A few more days, love," my wolf consoled me, "then you can show the world how beautiful you are."
I drew in a long breath and lifted my chin, "I know…" a faint smile tugged at my lips, "I've come a long way, and I can't wait to bridge the little distance to reach my destination."
I smoothed the folds of my beige gown, which was soft and had shimmer that caught the light.
Tonight was the Blood Moon ceremony. Different packs were attending it along with their Alphas, Lunas, and betas.
Most people used to find their fated mates at this ceremony every year. If my wolf was strong, then there was a strong chance that I could find mine too.
"No, you can't find your mate, Aurora," my wolf snubbed me at my thoughts, "You're already married."
I hissed in rage, "Don't ever call me that."
The name sounded like venom to my ears.
