I feel sick as I watch the Alpha wolf shift to his human form. Alpha Cameron. Beta Luke knew it wasn’t likely that he’d make it through rea*s*sessment, and he was right.

I see him from the comer of my eye, standing in the hallway. His face is a mask of the pain he’s feeling at the loss of his Alpha. He throws his head back and howls his pain. The rest of the pack answering him as they feel the tether to their Alpha snap.

“Beta Luke, is there an heir for the Alpha position in your pack?” Elder Jason asks him.

He shakes his head. “No, just me.”

Elder Jason nods. “We’ll need to perform an Alpha ceremony today. Your pack needs an Alpha.”

Jara looks up at Beta Luke. “We can have a burial ceremony this evening for Alpha Cameron, allowing your pack to grieve.”

I see Elder Jason look at Jara. He hadn’t planned to have an official funeral, but I agree with Jara. It’s the right thing to do. His pack needs to grieve him and then they need to submit to their new Alpha, even if this postpones Annabel’s claim by another day.

I get to the door.

I’ve had to go through it every year since I stalled coming to the claimings. The a*s*sessors get into your head. They force different scenarios into your mind, pushing emotions at you, a*s*sessing your ability to control yourself and your wolf. As an Alpha, the push is harder than others. We’re put through simulations where we are forced to submit to another Alpha, to give up our pack and once we feel destitute, we are

feeling you can have. Our wolves fight against it, but we have to control them, not letting them attack during the a*s*sessment. As I feel the desolation

and although I’ve never vomited after an a*s*sessment, I feel nauseous. I walk
