Chapter 84: The Promised She-Wolf.

Angela couldn’t understand what Alex had just said about her eyes. She shook her head in confusion and got to her feet. Everything was falling apart. Why was this happening now? Why today, of all days? Why was her shift different? Why was everything about her worse than what others went through?

"Shit... are her eyes glowing red?" Stales’ voice echoed. He stood at the entrance of the cave, holding a few old, heavy books. The shock on his face was clear. He didn’t want to believe what he was seeing.

"What’s happening to me?" Angela asked, her voice trembling as she rose from the ground. She was terrified. Her feelings were all over the place. Did they say her eyes were red? Weren’t only Alphas supposed to have glowing red eyes? She remembered the last full moon—her eyes had glowed too, and the strange mark on the left side of her chest had burned.

"I’m just as shocked as you are," Alex muttered. He rubbed both hands over his face and sighed deeply. This wasn’t what he thought would happen. "I don’t understand any of this."

"Your eyes are glowing red, Angela," Stales said, stepping closer. He stared hard, then froze as he noticed something else—her ears, her hands, her body. She didn’t look the same anymore. "You’ve changed... What happened to you?"

"I don’t know," Angela whispered. She leaned back against the cave wall, staring down at her hands. They didn’t feel like hers anymore. Everything about them looked wrong.

"I think she’s shifting," Alex said, trying to make sense of it.

"She’s not," Stales replied quickly and sat on the ground. He dropped the books in front of him and opened one. "This isn’t a shift. This is something else. Her powers... they’re too strong for her body. Just like Alphas suffer during full moons, her powers are pushing through. Her body is trying to keep up."

Angela looked at him, eyes wide. "How do you even know all that?" It felt like he knew more about her than she did herself.

Stales stayed quiet, but Alex stepped in.

"Angela... this might sound strange, but... you were mentioned in the prophecy," Alex began. His voice was softer now, careful. "There’s an ancient prophecy about four powerful Alphas... ones gifted with powers that could change the whole kingdom. Make it stronger than ever."
