Chapter 192

My eyes welled up with tears, first from holding in laughter, then for the sadness I always felt when hearing her childhood stories. Kelsey didn't talk about her foster families often, but when she did it broke my heart for the little girl she had been, and it was often hard to reconcile that little girl to the strong, compassionate, loving woman before me.

"The part not found in the human Bible pertains to us, the shifters. It was omitted to keep our kind safe. When God called Noah for this task, he also called forth many faithful followers. He placed a spirit animal inside each of them to carry his beloved creatures into the new world. With their human minds intact, they lived peacefully on the Ark, for the most part. Our legends say that there was a fight that broke out between a tiger and a lion who was sniffing around a female tiger. The male tiger shifted, to the shock of everyone. They knew their mission was to carry the spirit of the animals into the new world and had thought the shift would be a one-time deal turning them into animals forever, but God left the free will of their human hosts intact. The people aboard were able to subdue him and he shifted back, naked and vulnerable. That was the start of our kind."

"Sweetie, for every animal that walks this Earth, at some point there was at least one male and one female shifter of their kind."

"Do they still exist?"

"Yes, well, some of them. Wolves are pack animals, so our kind, specifically, have thrived better than most. Some, we fear, are gone entirely. Like the elephant. Seeing their numbers in the wild dwindling, tells us that their shifters are no longer around, or have not found mates if they still exist at all. If they were, they would have stepped in and repopulated."
