Somewhere in my memories…
The first and only time I saw Rory was eight years ago when I followed my parents to visit their friend, Southern Wilderness Tribe’s Alpha Austin. I learned from my mother that Austin’s wife, Luna Nancy had suddenly disappeared not long ago, but Austin never told anyone why. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
Austin received us at Southern Wilderness Tribe’s private room. He appeared to me as a burly and talkative Alpha, but the sudden change had made his hair turn gray overnight and he looked very old.
At that time, I was not an Alpha of Sunset Tribe. So while my parents were talking to Austin, I decided to walk out of the meeting room and stroll around. I should have stayed with them, but something was driving me towards something else.
As I strolled around, I saw that the door to one of the rooms was ajar. I pushed the door open and saw a little girl inside.
It was early autumn, but she was wearing a thick scarf and mask, revealing only her eyes.
I usually found children too restless and noisy. But for some reason, I couldn’t help myself from talking to her. I could even feel my heart beating a little faster than usual. My wolf Champion became so excited inside me. I had never felt him so excited.
I tried to talk to her, but she was wary until I revealed that I was the son of Sunset Tribe’s Alpha. I found the only photo of Austin, Nancy, my parents, and me in my phone to show it to her and she finally relented, revealing herself to be Rory, Austin and Nancy’s daughter.
This took me by surprise. Although I had heard my parents mention that Austin had a daughter, they had only met Rory once when she was very young, and Austin had hidden their daughter very well, especially since his wife disappeared. Austin claimed that it was because her daughter was weak and sick.
The moment we met, Rory and I got along very well. She even took off her mask and revealed her chubby little face that shone like the first snow under the morning sun. I played some games with her and Rory named me after a cartoon character, which I thought was kinda cute and funny. 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄o𝐦
The time passed as we chatted happily together, high-fived, and smiled many times.
“Princess Rory, it’s getting late. I think I need to leave.”

“Can’t you stay and play with me a little longer?” Her big, sparkling eyes made it hard for me to refuse.
“I can, but not today.”
Rory pouted. Then, she told me that she usually lived in a small house far away from the private room and that she had snuck out today so I should not tell her father.
“Why don’t you live in a private room here?” I was surprised that the Alpha’s daughter didn’t live with him.
“I don’t know. But ever since mom went away, Dad made me live outside and sent guards to stand by my door.” The poor child still didn’t know what had happened to her mother.
Before leaving, Rory took me to the windowsill and pointed at the small house she lived in. We even used the lines from the Lion King as a password for our next meeting, then she took a pink glass hairpin out of her pocket and gave it to me. As I walked out to the corner of the hallway, I could see her peaking through a crack in the door, staring at me.
I was on my way back with my parents when I summoned up the courage to tell them what had happened today. I even thought I was a pervert because I had developed a crush on the little girl.
“Relax, my son, it’s very likely that Rory is the mate the Moon Goddess has arranged for you. You’re already eighteen, an age where you should already be able to sense your mate. But Rory is still too young to realize this yet. Not until she is an adult.”
I took Rory’s hairpin back to the tribe and borrowed a jewelry box from my mother to put it away carefully. I decided that I would visit her often as she grew up. And when she turned eighteen, I would officially marry her as the Luna of Sunset Tribe.
Another one of my memories…
I can not forget the day my father received news from the elders that an Omega from Southern Wilderness Tribe had failed to assassinate Alpha Roger of New Moon Tribe, Roger had found out and led an army to attack Southern Wilderness Tribe, executing all the tribe members and left no survivors.
When I heard the news, I felt as if an awl had pierced my heart. I could not help but cry, crying for a little girl I had only met once. My parents came over to hug and comfort me.
My destined mate and her family were dead..
