The necklace flashed in the moonlight. It filled Doris up to something she had never been before and never thought she could be. Doris didn’t realize how little Cordelia had given her until this necklace was clasped around her neck.

It made her feel unstoppable. It made her feel as if she could bring down worlds and crush anything that tried to stop her.

Her wolf was silent as if it was trying to concentrate and let the power flow through her properly. This was all she had ever been made for. This was where she was meant to end up.
