Six Months After The Gathering
Dear Franklin and Talbot,
Sorry it’s taken me so long to reply to your letter, but things have been turbulent around here, and I’ve been keeping my head down and staying out of the way.
It’s spring right now, which is my favorite season.
Everything looks new and filled with possibilities, and it’s warm enough for me to swim in the springs, and the small garden bed of flowers I planted in the darkest parts of winter has finally bloomed.
Growing things is probably my favorite thing to do, though I haven’t tried much else.
Maybe when I’m twenty-one and can leave this place, I’ll discover a million other things l like to do, like skydiving or something. I love to read, and there are many adventurers in my books. One day, I want to be someone who has adventures too.
How about you? Would you and Talbot like to travel? You guys sound close. Maybe you’ll find mates who are twins too. It would be sad for twins to go to separate packs, especially when you’re as close as you guys and Vance.
Thanks for the postcard of him in the woods.
I hid it in the tiny cavern where I keep all the things that are precious to me.
There isn’t much, but I don’t need much.
As an Omega, I’m pretty far down the hierarchy to receive things.
Food is enough, and if I don’t cause any drama, I can usually ask for a new book in each ration delivery. Do you guys like to read?
The cubs, my cousins, are getting bigger, and they are super cute now. The little Alpha pup keeps giving his food to his Omega sister, so I’ve been giving them some of my meals because they are growing cubs!
I don’t know for much longer I’ll be here though, because the Alpha says that he’s arranged for me to get mated. Apparently Omegas are sought after in the supernatural world, outside of my pack anyway.
The guy is old, but anywhere has to be better than here, right? In some packs, the Omegas are even revered. Can you imagine?
Love,
Dawn
P.S. My wolf is white!
