Have you ever woken up and forgotten what was happening? That's what's going on with me... Here I am in the heart of the Netherlands and I completely forgot why I wasn't in New Heaven anymore.

Things have been happening so fast I forgot that it was real life...

"Lets go." Froam says to me. I look into his demanding eyes and follow. Right now we just arrived on the Thorn Pack's land. Apparently I don't get anytime to settle in. He wants us to go straight to his pack's council.

We walk up to this extravagant building. It looks old and antique, which oddly pleases the eye. The greenery that surrounds the building is well taken care of. The bushes are neatly trimmed and flowers are all watered nicely. It looks beautiful.

Once we get inside the building itself, I am not disappointed. It's as beautifully crafted as the outside. The ceiling has a beautiful mural painted on it, with clouds and Angels. It's all quite magnificent. There are old pillars that reach up to the tall ceiling, they are well designed and beautifully crafted. The pillars have small indents that ride up it's surface and stretch to the ceiling as well.

When he brings me through the double doors I am greeted by a group of five elderly men. They are sitting at a long wooden desk that stretches along the back wall of the room. Well I wouldn't call them all elderly, at least two of them are under the age of sixty.

Froam bows his head. I just stare at them for a moment. It's weird to see Froam bow down to someone. He acts like such an Alpha yet he so easily respects these men and treats them as his leaders.

A cough sounds from next to me. I look down and see Froam glaring at me. Oh right... I slowly bow my head down in respect.

"Please rise." One of the elders says. I lift my head and meet the eyes of five expecting men. "What brings you here on such a fine day Froam? I thought you were staying in America." He says.

"That was only temporary sir." Froam says.

The elder laughs. "It's nice to have you back, for what purpose did you bring this young woman to us?" he asks.

"You see your honor, I was getting to that. I would like to introduce you all to Evelyn Brewer." They look at me and I blush slightly. Oh my, this is weird. "She has agreed to help unite the packs."

"And how do you expect her to help us do that." One of the older ones says. Froam hold his hand out in my direction and points to me.

"She is a descendent from the Mist Pack with the ability to read the future." I hear a few light gasps and one of the elders turns to me shocked. Then he looks at Froam.

"Froam this isn't you trying to play another one of your dirty schemes on us, is it?" A younger elder asks. Froam frowns.

"It is not a scheme. Nor was it ever a bad idea! A child born a descendent of both the Mist and Thorn pack will unite us." He states, confident in himself.

"So you didn't force her here?" One of then asks.

Froam shakes his head. "No, she came on her own will." Bull crap. I came here because you were holding Ariana hostage and abusing Gavin. This was the only way to stop you. Jerk.

Another elder looks at Froam and says, "A descendent from the Mist pack chose to come here and make amends on her own?" Froam nods.

"Yes, she is willing to become partners with one of our own and proceed to unite the packs into one." He adds. Become partners with one of then? Huh?

The elders turn to each other and begin to whisper things back and forth.

One of the men who appears to be doing most of the talking looks down at me. "Young lady. This is quite the surprise but I cannot thank you enough for coming to help our packs unite. For that, I would like to honor you at the highest level. Although there is no guarantee that this will unite the packs, the fact that you chose to come help us mean a lot." I give him a curious look. Wait, did he just say he wants to 'honor me at the highest level'? "As for another thing, you will need a mate from our pack if this is going to work. After discussing with my men we have come up with the best four candidates who you will have to chose from. Please come back in a few hours to meet them." He says to me.

I blink a few times. Wait... I never agreed to having them pick out my mate... I just agreed to go with Froam, that didn't mean I was going to do everything he wanted me too. This is bad.

"Now Stacey and Marla will be your personal maids, if you need anything please tell them. They will show you to your room and help you out as best as possible." The man looks down at Froam. "Thank you Froam. You are now dismissed." Froam's jaw drops open.

"But sir, do I get some form of reward for finding the savior?" He says frantically. The elder holds his hand up.

"For all we know, she may not be the savior. Now please exit the building." I look at Froam in shock. Wait is he getting banished from me? And these girls are bringing me to my own room? Talk about a nice welcoming... This is fantastic!

Without giving another glance in Froam's direction, I follow the two girls, Stacey and Marla. They lead me around the building and up a few sets of stairs. Eventually I come to a large set of double doors. The girls push them open and motion for me to walk into the room. I take a step in and my jaw drops to the floor.

I thought the outside of this building was extravagant, how about this room! It's freaking amazing!

"Sorry about the size. This is our guest room, we didn't know the savior would be here so we don't have the kings room prepared." She says. I look at the girl.

"No this is amazing. This place is huge! I'm surprised I even get to stay in a nice room." I say astonished. I walk up to the wardrobe which looks to be made of extremely fancy wood. I run my hands over it's smooth surface.

"I'm glad you're pleased. Would you appreciate a bath?" I turn to her and smile.

"That would be awesome, thank you." She nods her head and wanders off into the bathroom. The other girl comes over to the wardrobe and opens it. I watch as she shuffles through the clothes. She glances at me real fast, eyes me up and down, then goes back to scrolling through the clothing.

I shrug it off and decide to adventure the rest of my new room. There is a set of double doors that lead to a balcony. The view outside seems to peer over a huge and well kept garden. In the far distance I see a stable that leads to a huge corral. To the left of that is a wooded area that looks as if it stretches on forever. This place feels like a fairy tale.

Inside my room there is a huge bed. King sized, I assume. The comforter and pillows all seem to be down feather and look as soft as a cloud.

"Excuse me, Evelyn." I look up at the blonde who went to go start my bath. "The tub is filled, please come and bathe."

Please come and bathe? Damn, they are very proper here.

"Of course." I say. Reminder to self, be as proper as I can. I follow her into the bathroom. My jaw drops.

This is not a bathroom, this is a spa. There is a huge tub in the middle of the room, along with a glass shower on the right side. There is a small toilet room on the left side and the sinks are over there as well.

I notice as I walk up to the tub that the girl shuts the door for me. The strange thing is, she stayed in the bathroom. I look at her and she stares back at me expectingly.

"Did you not want to bathe now?" The girl asks worriedly. I give her an odd look.

"No I still want to bathe... It's just, you're still in here...?" I say confused. She gives me an odd look.

"Of course, it is standard procedure for us maids to bathe our guests and masters." She says.

She wants to bathe me? What? Well I have to say... this situation has never happened to me before. It's weird.

"Sorry... I don't mean to be rude... But I'm not used to this. Could I just bathe myself?" She looks down at the ground.

"Well Master Hershal asked for us to take care of you to the highest level... I don't want to get into trouble for not doing that..." She adds. I sigh. I guess it can't be helped...

"Fine... just turn around while I get out of my cloths please?" I ask nicely. She nods and turns to face the wall.

Oh god this is so weird... I hate this already. I toss my cloths onto the floor and get into the soapy water. It's a good thing this is a bubble bath.

"Done!" I say. I hear shuffling then the girls is behind me. She lightly pushes me forward and begins to scrub my back. I feel so awkward just sitting here... I don't even know this girls name... Maybe I should figure it out. "I missed your name earlier, what is it again?" I ask.

"Marla." She says. "I was named after my grandmother. She was also a maid here. The women in my family have been maids here for centuries." Marla says. Centuries? That's a long time.

"That's nice, do you enjoy working as a maid?" I ask and she laughs.

"Of course I do! It is only a job, I'm not forced to work here." She says. "I love what I do, it makes me happy to directly serve the higher ups." Wow, I've never really met anyone who would want to do this for a job. At least she knows what she likes.

"Honestly, good for you. It must be nice to love your job." I say. She laughs, tilts my head back, and pours some water onto it to get my hair ready for washing.

"It is. I know Stacy likes her job too. We have always been close friends. Her mom didn't want her to work as a maid but Stacey fought her. Now she works as a maid and a designer for some of the higher ups in the pack." After scrubbing my head with shampoo and conditioner then rinsing it, she lets me sit back up.

"That's really cool. It's awesome that you guys get to stay together." I say.

My mind immediately thinks about Rosie... I know I probably won't ever see her again. I wish I could have at least said goodbye. I'm going to miss her.

"It is. Evelyn did you dye a strip of your hair white?" She asks as she touches my hair.

"Oh that, no I was um... born with it." That's always been the easiest way to explain it to people.

"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to be rude I was only curious." I laugh at her defensive response.

"Don't even worry about it. I get that all the time." I say. She lets out a relieved breath.

"Okay, we are done." She says. She grabs a towel, opens it up, and waits for me to get out of the tub.

I laugh. "I can do this part myself Marla." She giggles and hands me the towel. She turns around and I step out. The towel is soft and fluffy. I dry myself quickly and wrap myself up. Suddenly the door flys open and Stacy is there with clothes.

"The council is ready for you Evelyn." She approaches me and hands me the underwear she had in her hand. "Put this on and meet us in your room." She says with a smile.

I take the clothes as they exit. I quickly throw on the bra and underwear. I do it fast because I don't want the council to have to wait for me. After the welcoming they gave me, I don't want to get on their bad side.

Stacey is waiting for me in the room as I enter in my underwear. She motions for me to stand in front of her and she starts to put clothing on me. Marla comes out of no where and starts to dry my hair with a blow dryer that has a really long extension cord. I let them do their thing.

After about fifteen minutes I'm dressed in an old fashion outfit. I'm wearing a tight shirt, pants, a pair of long brown boots, and a brown belt. My hair is also straightened with my bangs braided. I look kind of cool.

"Right this way." Stacey says. I follow them back down to the room that holds the council. When they open the door I'm greeted by the five elders.

"Welcome back Evelyn." The main elder says. I bow down in respect. "Please rise." I rise back up and look at him. "The council has come to a decision, unfortunately only three of the four candidates were able to show."

Great, we are back to talking about my mate choices... I can't believe they think I will be able to serve as their 'savior'. I can't even babysit Ashley's kid for more than a day, how can I save two whole packs by having a kid?

"Please welcome your first candidate, Leonardo Powell." He says. A door at the side of the room opens and a young man about my age walks in. He looks a little older than me and has short golden blonde hair. I lock eyes with his blue ones. He approaches me and he grabs my hand and shakes it.

"It's nice to meet you." He says.

I smile gently. "You too." I add politely.

He lets go of my hand and stands a few feet from me. My attention snaps back to the main elder. He smiles.

"Next is Wesley Ortiz."

Another man comes through the same side door. He has quite a big build and his light brown hair is in the fashion of a buzz cut. He grabs my hand and shakes it firmly.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Evelyn." I smile at him.

"You too Wesley." I add.Well, he seems like a nice guy. He's kind of like a giant teddy bear. My hand is released and he stands next to Leonardo.

"Now for your third choice." I look back at the door in enough time to see another man appear. "This is Kenneth Perry."

This man is probably a year older than me. He has brown hair and bright green eyes. His build is pretty decent, and his looks are pretty good too. All in all he is the most attractive of the three. He walks right up to me and gently holds my hand in his.

He lifts it up and brings it to his mouth. Gently he grazes his lips over the back of my hand and looks back into my eyes. I blush insanely. This is so unusual.

He gazes into my eyes and gives me a heart stopping smile, "It's an honor to meet you Evelyn Brewer." He stands up fully and joins the other two candidates. I'm so stunned by his entrance that I forget to answer him.

"I know this is sudden." The main elder says, snapping me out of my paralysis. I turn to him. "But we need to start you training soon."

"Training?" I ask politely. He smiles and nods his head.

"Well of course, we can't have our future savior inexperienced." I look down at my hands. Crap I didn't know I was going to have to train, that sounds like a lot of work.

"What is it I will be training to do exactly?" I ask. He laughs.

"Everything." He says. I look up shocked. Everything? "As a group, the council decided, what better way to get you trained and still manage to give you time to choose your mate than to have the candidates train you. Although we are missing one of the candidates, so we decided to have Kenneth train you twice."

Lovely... I'm never going to have anytime to myself am I? I don't want to chose a stupid mate. I hate the fact that they are using me to bond their two groups together. Why can't they fight their own battles? I mean I guess I did sign up for this by going with Froam willingly, so I shouldn't be complaining.

"Leonardo will train you first. He will be training you in archery right after this. Next is Wesley, he will be training you in throwing knives. This will happen today also. Then Kenneth will have to train you in hand to hand combat and wolf training tomorrow."

Wolf training? Crap. I never mentioned to anyone about my inability to change... What would they do if I told them? I mean I'm just a human without my wolf... They would probably execute me for being a mortal who lied to them and knows too much... I can't let them find out.

"Well Evelyn, are you ready?" A deep voice says. I look up into Leonardo's expecting eyes. I take one last deep breath and nod.

"I guess so." I say. He grabs my hand and off we go.
