Chapter 4 - Little wolf

One thing about this wedding was, even though Flynn's parent know the love between Lyra and Kael is genuine, they were never once in support of it. And they made this known to Lyra, what they didn't tell her was why.

Flynn: I've always known this day would come when I'll finally have to let you go... Little wolf.

Lyra: c'mon Flynn stop it, you know only father gets to call me that and it's not like I'm moving to another clan in another part of the world. I'll still be here, we might not just see each other much.

Flynn: I know how much Kael loves you but even though he's my friend, if he ever does anything to make you sad, I'm going to tear him limb from limb.

Lyra: You guys are best friends, whatever you do with him is none of my business.

(They both laugh)

The mood changed as Flynn look serious, he brought out the pendant from his pocket.

Lyra: Wow that is a beautiful thing you have there, where did you get it? It must have cost a fortune!

She collects it from him, still astonished by the design and asked where is this from? This symbols on it merged together like this are unlike anything I've ever seen before?

Flynn why are you quiet, is this for me?

If it's about the wedding, i know we grew up together and we have done almost everything together since then, but you know I can't stay here forever. Now tell me where you got this from, it's beautiful!

Flynn: This actually belongs to your mother, he hesitated a bit, it belongs to your birth mother. Her name is Mirah and she she gave you your name Lyra and also this pendant. She...

Lyra cuts him short, with tears in her eyes, she said with a shaky voice, You've had this all this time and you didn't tell me? How did you know about all this? How could you? i have always trusted you, even more than Kael and you know this, why? Still in Disbelief.

Finn walks in.

Lyra: I knew it, you don't like the Idea of me and Kael getting married but he's a good man and you know this, Father please don't do this to me. I'm grateful for everything you've done for me, you know I've never asked for anything but please just this once grant me this request, this is the only thing, the only person i ever wanted, please.

(Still crying and heartbroken).

Because she knows Finn will never ever interfere in any matter unless he's absolutely sure there's no other choice.

Finn : (walks up to her hugs and consoles her) oh little wolf, i wish there was another way but there's a lot I've been keeping from you because i know you bare a lot on your shoulders already. But the time is right to tell you about your Origins and where you came from.

Do you believe in fate my child? Fate is a funny thing but it has a very strong bond and that bond is what binds our actions and thoughts and lives.

Sometimes we might think we are doing something for ourselves and our loved ones but fate makes it that that singular decision affects many other lives we didn't even know about when we made that decision.

You know I retired voluntarily from the army and the war and you very well know how everyone respects me and what they call me? White wolf she said.

Flynn knods : i left the war at the peak of my strength, having spent my best years fighting for this nation, but i wanted something more...peace and quiet! I left the war thinking I'm doing this for myself and my love, your mom. Unknowingly to me fate had other things in store for us. After six months , Flynn and Kael were already a year old just days apart.

I and my wife went to the eastern woods and that's the day we found you, that day is the third best day of my life, the first was the day i married my wife (they all smile a bit) and the second was the day we had Flynn (touching him on his shoulder). You three are the best things that has ever happened to me and i wouldn't trade that for anything in this world.

We found your mom there with no injuries but she looked like all her life force was almost drained from her. We tried to help her but she gave us you, your name and this pendant and she vanished. It was my wife that noticed your eyes and because of the unusual words your mom spoke, i knew i had to find out more. So i went back to the woods and discovered the Royal guard and general Klaus also looking for you and your mom!

At this rate Lyra is already panicking, imagine in a world where witches are hunted for just existing and you discover on your wedding day to the Alpha, you might be a witch and there's already a target on your back from one of the most brutal general of your time and the royal guard.

We took you out to forge your papers. I had a trusted friend do that for me. And when things cooled down, I went out on my own to make some findings, out as far as the outlands and beyond. If you remember growing up, i was usually gone for up to months some Times.

I didn't go out needlessly but to find out more about your mother. It turns out the royal guard obliterated a whole village in the outlands just looking for your mom. I found a seer and she told me about a prophecy of a child that will bring about the end of Order and destruction upon our world.

It's not that I don't want you to be happy my child nor that i don't want the best for you. But i fear you're walking yourself straight into what killed your mother and what we've been protecting you against all these years. It just feels as if all our efforts and your mother's sacrifice will all be in vain, if you go ahead with this wedding.

Lyra: don't worry Pa, i understand you, but all these are new to me, even though i trust you and I'll like to know more about the mysteries surrounding my origins, right now my love for Kael is superior and I can't keep him waiting, I'm sorry, Lyra walked out, but just at the door she asked, will you still walk me down the Isle? With fear in her voice, as if she didn't want to hear the answer to the question she just asked.

Finn answered of course yes, what kind of a father would i be not to. I might not agree with you, but I'll definitely always support you. Always and forever.

They hugged and she left.

Flynn was about to follow her when Finn called him.
