Chapter 7-Sky's POV

What? I am nearly an alpha?! How...what...I...I'm not good enough! I wouldn't know what to do!

"Ready to try speaking, now?"

"Umm, sure."

Jacob held out the second piece of slate.

"Inyahvinare. It means wolfblood.

Muolere. It means ancient wolf.

Askleviere. It means alpha.

Beskleviere. It means beta." I went on like this until I had reached the bottom of the slate. When I had finished, I looked up at Jacob. He was standing with his mouth open.

"Umm...lets,umm,do the last test, shall we?" He pulled himself together. "Yes. We'll do the last test."

I nodded weakly. Something was wrong. It took a lot to unnerve Jacob.

"Okay, you know how you shifted for the first time? By thinking of being an animal? You need to do that, but with another one. Why don't you try a dog? That's quite similar to a wolf."

I tried, thinking of being a dog. Wait, had everything suddenly grown? I felt a bit small.

"Go human again, My Alpha." Was I a dog? Was that it? I went human.

"Wait, did you call me alpha?"

"Yes, I did." He went bowed down to me, one knee on the ground, one arm over his face. All the other wolves bowed as well.

"Oh, for christ's sake! Get up! I don't need you bowing! They just laughed and bowed deeper.

"Get up!" I yelled. They all immediately leapt to their feet. "Finally! Do I have to yell to make you listen?!"

"No, alpha. But when you yelled you finally unleashed the alpha inside you. Then, the full power of the alpha hit us. We cannot disobey a command from the alpha." Jacob explained.

"Oh. Sorry."

"It's ok, alpha."

"Please just call me Sky."

"Your wish is my command." He said flirtatiously.

I just rolled my eyes. "Okay, who is my beta?"

"Me."

"You? Is that why you took charge? Cause you knew you were gonna be beta? Hallelujah! I'm not alone!"

"Ha! I knew you would appreciate me!"

"Appreciate you? I am just happy because you can help me. After I'm done learning, you will obey me. Muahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!"

"Oh, really?"

Whilst we had been flirting, yes, we were flirting, Mattei had shifted.

"Hello, my alpha." He bowed.

"Get up." He leapt up.

"Ready to run?"

"How?"

"Let your Askleviere elders tech you. Shut your eyes. They will show you."

I did as Mattei had instructed. Closing my eyes, I asked my elders to show me.
