Catch Her By Her Scent novel Chapter 24

Jay looks at me with hurt eyes and reaches out to me to grab my arm, I pull away, but not before I give him a chaste kiss on cheek.

"Sophia I ..."

I interrupt him and say, "I am sorry Jay", then run away from him. As I find the tree line that will lead to end of the forest I feel pain coursing through my body. It felt like I was going through my first shift all over again and I remembered that the Goddess told me I would experience my first shift as the white wolf after I met my mate. She said it would feel like my first shift. Soon I am on all fours and I look at my legs and see they are a blinding white. Once I am accustomed to my new wolf I keep running away from the mating games, from my mate.

Some images flash across my eyes and now I am in a huge field, filled fighting wolves.

I recognize my brother, Max, the rogue king, and Jay. I want to scream at them to stop fighting. As the scene plays out all the people I love die and the rogue king stands in the middle of the field howling in victory with the blood of my loved ones soaking his fur.

More images flash through my mind of me crying and visiting their graves.

Finally it stops on one scene. I am in a run-down house and I am panting, as if I had been running for a long time. I also feel as if my stomach is trying to eat itself. I am so weak I can hardly move. I hear a creak from behind me and turn towards the sound. I see the rogue king and I try to shift into my white wolf, but I am too weak.

He looks at me with a victorious glint in his eyes. "I finally have the white wolf in my grasp, now the werewolf community will be mine to rule. I really wished you would have taken my offer to join me."

I bow my head, not having the will to fight anymore. The rogue king had other ideas though, he tilted my chin up so I was staring directly into his eyes. He lifted his hand over his head, his claws extending. He lunges forward and his claws come down across my neck and I don't see anything.

I didn't think I would see anything more after that, but I was wrong. I see werewolf communities fighting each other. I see them expose themselves to the human government. I see them killing innocent people. I see the world turn into chaos.

I come out of that vision and see the Moon Goddess with a grave expression one her face. "Now Sophia I will show you what will happen if you accept your mate. I hope you will make the right decision Sophia, I really hope you do, for everyone's sake."
