Chapter Fighter 104
CHAPTER 002
My favorite class was werewolf history. And not just because I needed to learn it to be the next Queen, but because it was a really interesting subject.
Of course, my mother's name came up a lot in class. The battles that she fought. Her life as a hybrid and how she moved to Alaska in order to save the triplets. Her mates. My fathers. But they ended up saving each other. And that afternoon we had training. Which I was always good at.
My dad's made sure of it. And so did my mother. They all wanted me well trained from a young age because they knew that I would be vulnerable to an attack against them. So they did everything they could in order to protect me and to make sure that I could protect myself.
So I was usually our trainer's assistant. Helping the others with their stances and they're body
movements while training.
When we were finished with that, Avery and I decided to go downtown and check out a couple
of shops because I needed a new dress for my 16th birthday party.
I could see the castle from up on that massive mountains from where we were in this pack
and it looked really beautiful from this view.
I tried not to look at it too much. I lived there. I didn't need to see what it looked like whenever I wasn't there.
Avery and I shopped for a while before I started walking home and she headed to her house.
As soon as I walked inside I could hear music playing in one. of the rooms.
I followed the sound and I ended up standing in one of the sitting rooms.
Mom was in there alone with Pa Tyler.
They were slow dancing in the middle of the room and I leaned against the doorframe to watch them.
He would lean back occasionally and kiss mom and he was holding her so close.
"What are you doing kid?" Pa Dean asked, standing next to me.
"Just watching." I said.
"I can tell that there's more going on in there."
"I guess I'm just excited to meet my mates." I said.

"Mates?" He asked, confused.
"Yeah. Mates."
"Emma. You know that having three mates isn't normal, don't you?" He asked.
"What are you talking about? Of course it is. Mom has three mates and you guys are all great together. I hope I just get a piece of what you guys have." I said.
"You will. When you find your mate. But you have to be realistic. It might only be one mate."
I looked at him, confused and a little disappointed.
That can't be right. I've grown up with three dads. All three are my mother's mates and they
couldn't be happier. I have always known that I was going to get what they have. I mean, I have
I just nodded my head at Pa Dean and I walked away from the room and I headed upstairs to my bedroom.
I put my bag on the floor next to my bed and I sat on the seat under my window, looking out among the forests and the packs that had been built closer to the castle so they would be better protected.
It was a beautiful sight from here, but I still felt a little empty. Like there was something
missing.
Someone knocked on the door and brought me out of my thoughts.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"It's Rory." She answered. So I got up to answer the door and she was holding a tray of food for
my afternoon snack.
She walked into my room and placed it on the desk in my room.
Rory was only a couple of years younger than my mother, but she looked so much older.
Probably because she's been made a servant in the castle instead of my mother putting her to death for plotting to try and have my mother killed before I was born.
She's my mother's stepsister. And my mother thought death would be too easy for her. So she came up with a better punishment. And she's never allowed to leave. Since she's tied to the dragons that protect this place. As soon as she steps away from the castle, they know and they will bring her back.
I actually thought it was a great punishment. But what do I know? I wasn't there when they

were plotting against my mother.
"Will that be everything?" Rory asked.
"Yeah." I said. So she left my room and I closed the door behind her.
I sat there snacking on the food while I was doing my homework from that day but it was just
a small afternoon snack.
I still had to go downstairs and have dinner with my parents.
We try to have dinner together every night. Mom insisted. It's one way for the family to stay connected.
I wasn't really in a talkative mood today so after dinner I went to the back garden that was above the ocean on the back of the castle.
There was a stone wall around the garden and I sat there staring out at the ocean when I saw my mom coming out towards me.
"Are you going to tell me what's bothering you?" She asked as she sat next to me.
"Honestly, I don't really know. I just don't feel like myself lately." I said.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, I've been really excited about finding my mates because I thought three mates was pretty normal. But Pa Dean told me that it's not that normal. And I've got my 16th birthday coming up which is really scaring me. I know you said that I could date, but how can I know that these guys are going to like me for me or because of who I am?" I asked.
"These are all perfectly normal feelings. Especially for when you start dating. Everything is very strange at first. But you have always had good instincts."
"I never got any of your powers. Does that mean that there's something wrong with me?" I
asked.
"Absolutely not. Why would you ever ask that? There's nothing wrong with you."
"I'm not as pretty as you. I don't have the powers that you have. What if I'm not good enough
to be Queen?" I asked.
She looked at me suspiciously for a moment before she looked out at the ocean as well.
"Did Hazel say something to you?" Mom asked. And I snapped my head around to look at her strangely and in shock with wide eyes.
"Did you really think you could keep that from me? I didn't have to read your thoughts to know

that little cow is giving you a hard time at school." Mom said.

"They don't say anything to me directly. But they make it pretty well known that they hate me."
"That's because they're jealous. Because you are next in line to the throne. You are going to have plenty of male suitors and I know that definitely pisses me off, going by her reputation. And because you're kind and smart and strong. She's not. Believe me, I've looked into that tramp." Mom said.
"You have?" I asked, surprised.
"Yeah. I did a background search when I was first told about her. And you have nothing to worry about." Mom said.
"Can I ask what you found out about her?" I asked, with a wry little smirk.
"You know that I can't tell you that. You just have to trust me."
So I smiled and I nodded my head.
She pulled me closer to her and wrapped her arms around me.
"I love you mom."
"I love you too." She said, kissing the top of my head.
