Chapter 6 SAGE

In a few minutes, I will be standing in front of the Moon Goddess to finally receive my wolf. At last, I'll have someone who can be with me forever. I will not be one anymore. I wore the most decent white dress I could find in my closet. I also manage to make a simple flower crown that I can put on top of my head as I stand before the Moon Goddess. "A crown, really? You're so cheap, Sage."

I was startled when Annika abruptly barged into my room.

how's the little gift I gave you yesterday? Is it enlightening?" she asked sarcastically.

"Yes, t thank you. That's the most precious gift you can give me, Annika. At least you save me from a terrible fate." It wasn't a lie, though.

in my room? Hit me? Give me ten lashes. What else? Kill me?" I mocked. "Go on, tell me, Annika," I taunt her.

She scoffs, "Just because you're about to get your wolf tonight doesn't mean you're untouchable." I can't help but laugh at her ignorance. "What's so funny?" she asked, feeling irritated.

Do you really think that I was able to say these things to you because I'll be getting my wolf? You never fail to
