Lost child's POV

I was lost. I had no clue where I was and all of my family was killed while I was "dropped" here, wherever here is. I looked around, wondering where I was. I see a waterfall not far from where I'm sitting, but out of the treeline large wolves run up to me, At first they don't know what to make of me. I wasn't afraid of them so I remain sitting there looking at them when they suddenly run back into the forest, but than people emerge back out of the forest walking over to me.

"Who are you?" the male asks me harshly. The other wolves whisper, "She smells funny" or "What is she doing here?"

The female that was next to him walked up to me and knelt down to look me over. She froze for a seeing something on my shoulder, but recovers after the moment saying, "Honey, she's freezing, but she doesn't seem to have been injured. How did you come to be here, child?" "I don't know, I fell from the sky out of light and here I am. Where is here?" I asked the she-wolf.

With my blue/green eye color, naturally multi-colored hair of black, blue, and silver, and my odd scent of wolf had everyone uneasy around me. To everyone, I could have been a wolf child, but I wasn't even sure of my origins. The only thing I remember was waking up in that forest after falling then wondering where and who I was.

The Alpha looked at me with a weird possessive look nd whispered to his mate who nodded then walked back to me saying, "We can help you so why don't you come with us." I nodded taking her hand and following her back to their home.

The Alpha and the Luna of the Mystic Lunar pack, a medium- large sized pack, but its as old as the werewolf species itself and was also thought to be the beginning of werewolf kind. They took me in and raised me in the shadows for 15 years until I graduated from college at 22. I can't complain it's been 15 years now and I have had a life of my own away from the Royals mansion. Alpha Jakob and Luna Celeste were kind to me in public, but behind closed doors criticized my behavior as if it was my fault that her daughter or sons looked bad to the public. I brushed it off most days just grateful I had a home. There were times the Luna showed her supposed kind but bold, assertive attitude that reminded her people she is strong body, mind, and wolf who cars for her pack. Although 5'6" with sandy blonde hair and emerald green eyes, she may be small, but she is was no weakling.

However, Jakob is the strong Alpha everyone hopes for, strong and patient. Dark curly hair and deep blue eyes, he is built strong of body like a powerful alpha should be. Wise and calculated, and very stoic he has proven to be one of the most essential Alphas of his rank. Between the negotiations with the northern pack, who are ruthless warriors hell bent on the stone age of things, to the southwestern lands of the United States that needed wolf guardians to look after the cattle herds because of minor rogue attacks in the back hills. Our alpha Jakob has seen to all of this and handled the issues without any causalities. This was only possible because he claimed credit for all my strategic planning that he demanded I do to cover my living expenses. Just one more way they show their displease for me. They didn't have to yell, but they did know how to make me feel small all the time.

Their oldest son, William has been away at university studying business and e-commerce, or so I'm told, so he can run the pack's larger businesses more smoothly when he becomes Alpha, so I never see him. He was always kind, but aloof towards me, so we always had a friendly relationship that was never more than acquaintances at best. I haven't seen him in 10 years because of his studies, but we keep in touch due to the business contracts I worked on for his father. He isn't mated yet, even at 32 years old that seems odd, but he was at a human university for a long time. Well-built, with short wavy dark black/blue hair and emerald green eyes, you swear that they look like emeralds. One can see the stream of broken hearts left behind with him, while he's completely oblivious to them all. Even I wasn't immune to this man's essence when he walked into a room, I had to mentally slap myself to get back to work.

Lysa and Phillipe are identical twins, tall, with dark hair and green eyes, except for the scars on their faces. Lysa has a star just above her right eye, while Phillipe had a moon just in front of his left ear. It is said they were blessed by the goddess and they bring good fortune. Which is mostly why they get away with everything. Lysa most of all as the Luna has to deal with her squabbles and fits of rage in town, which are later blamed on me. Although the Luna has to negotiate through most of their terrible feuds, they are quite inseparable. Thankfully, I no longer have to see them regularly. I now have a quieter, with my small business of selling botanical oils and soaps in town. I have always felt that there was something more for myself, but had yet to see what it might be. So now i am close enough for them to use me, but far enough I don't feel suffocated by them anymore, mostly.

Unknown POV

Every 3000 years a new set of Originals is born to each species. Each having unique characteristics and talents not given to the their general species. Because of these traits each group coveted their pair and often enslaved them as weapons of war. Only a handful of species made their pairs royal so the balance would be kept and all species would be looked after no matter what others did to their Original pair.

"That is was the book said," a voice said to a group of creatures. "However, The book is currently in the hands of the Royal wolves and is hidden away. They do not even realize what they have is the very history of all our species and how the Originals are came to be."

Several murmurs were heard across the group. One woman stood up and asked, "Is there no way to retrieve it? Leaving the book in there hands could lead to disaster."

The voice replied, "We are going to pursue every avenue we can to get that book back. It is essential that we get it back so we can identify who will be the new pair for witches." Agreements from around the room were heard and the groups dispersed.

"Stupid fucking wolves never knowing what they truly have," the voice says, leaving the area in puff of smoke.
