Look Mommy Pretty wolves,kota murmurs, everyone in the room staring at the pup. He examines the picture, his tiny finger 

tracing along the wolf 

*So hes gifted as well,Aurora whispers to heisell, her brows furrowing in confusion, But neither of you are Silver wolves. I would 

have sensed that by now,she thinks aloud, tapping her chin with her linger. And your exhusband was the average Alpha.” 

“Average Alpha, Oliver grumbles in annoyance, Aurora grinning mischievously at him

Awin is the little mench man mad he can‘t see the pictures in the book?she teases him, Oliver rolling his eyes at hiš inate. My 

poor little French snob, She giggles, Olivers eyes narrowing to slits as he glares silently at her

The Queen turns the page over for Kota, letting him look through the pictures and drawings in the enchanted book

*Not all Silver and Gold wolves are the same,the Queen continues. Like with everything in the world, there are exceptions to the 

Ilike what?Zane asks

Aurora shrugs. Well, we all know Silver and Gold wolves are all gifted, right? They receive ONE gift on the day of their shift, but on 

very rare occasions, a gift is received earlier than expected or later,” she explains. I was 18 when I received my earth and healing powers and I had not yet shifted. On the other hand, my aunt tells me my cousin Salavador first used his gift as a toddler. Clearly, the rules for gift 

manifestation vary from wolf to wolf,she smiles. And of course, every once in a while, Moon Goddess throws in a curve ball.” 

What do you mean?I ask, the little Queen smiling proudly to herself

Sometimes, our Goddess has mercy on our pain,she says quietly. I was raised by my uncle Emiliano who had one of the rarest 

gifts a Silver wolf could ever have: Healing. Its a gift Moon Goddess bestows only on her purest wolves.Her voice becomes small and her 

brave smile trembles a little. He was killed 6 years ago.” 

I am sorry for your loss,I say, reaching over to squeeze her hand.|

Its alright. I can still feel him sometimes,the Queen replies with a whisper. She takes a moment to collect her thoughts before 

continuing. Anyways, my uncles twin sister, Valentina, was attacked and after nearly losing her life, she woke up with my uncles gift.” A single tear rolls down her cheek and she quickly wipes it away. Silver wolves dont get second gifts but I like to think this was Moon 

Goddesss way of letting my aunt have a little piece of her brother. In the end, Moon Goddess does as she pleases, so perhaps you are just 

another exception to the rules. My family is full of exceptions,she laughs. You could say we are an exceptional Silver wolf clan.” 

Wwhat is your clan naname?Zane asks, the Queen puffing out her chest with pride

My father was the Alpha of the Altamirano Silver Wolf Clan,She says proudly. My mother was his Queen, and he, her loyal 

soldier.” 

Yyoure an AltAltamirano?he asks, wideeyed and amazed. II thought ththey were extinct?” 

Not extinct, just in hiding for many years,Aurora replies. All of the Silver wolves in my Kingdom are Altamirano wolves,she adds

Zanes shock intensifying

Whats so special about Altamirano wolves?I ask, completely lost in the conversation

The Silver wolves in my familys clan were known for their powerful gifts,Aurora shrugs. My father possessed telekinesis. His 

father could create storms on a whim. His father before him could slow down time. Several of the gifts from my family have never been 

replicated again, making them one of a kind wolves.” 

Tto be an AltAltamirano is tto be like royalty,Zane further explains. Mmy father hahas great respect ffor your clan,he says timidly

I cant say the same,Aurora sighs, Zane lowering his head in shame. I have great respect for you, though, Zane. Perhaps you can 

start a new clan with Talia once we figure out what she and Kota are.”
