Chapter 246
“You really don’t do any of the girly things do you? I thought maybe you were just being shy.” She
calls back through the door.
“Nope, this is nothing I have ever experienced before. My nanny wasn’t allowed to give me anything
that might make me spoiled or ungrateful. And I’ve really only felt comfortable on the training field
and none of this stuff is necessary.”
“It’s okay though, right? We’re not making you too uncomfortable are we? I really never thought to
ask how you feel about all of this.”
“It’s fine, Luna Anne, just new to me that’s all. I really don’t want to make a fool of myself, but it feels
like some of these girls have been training in dress wearing and speaking topics the way that I have
been training in battle strategy and I don’t want to embarrass you or Alpha Reggie.” I say as I finally
step out and grab a fluffy soft white towel to dry off with.
I step out to where they all are. They have seen every part of me today, so I have become less shy
around these ladies.
“Oh, sweet girl, you could never embarrass us. You are unique and amazing in your own way and
many of the girls here are trying to fit into a mold that the old fuddy duddies have decided is what a
young woman should be. Just keep being your amazing self.”
“What is tonight going to be like? Is it just a dance and mingling or is there something I am expected
to do?” I look at Luna Anne through the mirror as the hair stylist brushes through the copious
amounts of hairspray from this morning.
“Reggie and I open the ball and since you will be with Xander you both will join us for that first
dance. Normally he Sits it out so he doesn’t have to pick among the ladies who he will dance with.
Something similar happened to Reggie before he found me and it cause a whole slew of problems.
The Alpha took it as him choosing his daughter as a chosen mate and spread that rumor the whole
night, which of course caused many fight and almost a dispute between two packs. So unless the
Alpha Prince or Princess shows up with a date, they don’t do the opening dance.” She chuckles
humorlessly. “After that you will both make the rounds getting to know the Elders and Alphas and
the future Alphas since there will be several who will take over in the next year or two.” My eyes
raised up to hers, I don’t even have to ask the question.
“Your boys will not be here, they have at least six or seven more years before they start attending
with Lucas and Ava.
We really only have them join when they are ready to take over so relationships can be established.
The young Alphas still do the training together here in the summers until we start that transition.”
She looked at me with sympathy.
For the briefest moment my heart fluttered as I thought that I would get to see them and explain
what happened, but not yet. I did bring a letter for Xander to take to them. There was no way I could
write them individually and I tried to explain that with my five page letter, but I also didn’t want to say
anything that would get anyone in trouble. I know we aren’t supposed to have outside contact for
the first two years of training so we stay focused.
Once my hair is done I switch with Luna Anne and get Started with the make-up artist. She really
was very good at her job. I could see the subtle transformation she created with the make-up and it
was way more intense than it was this morning, but I still looked like me, just enhanced.
