Pink Light

The master replied,

"Look with your own eyes, Alpha!" he said, pointing with his outstretched arm at the already grown vegetables in the garden beds.

"Wow!!!!!"

With his hands on his waist, wide-eyed and open-mouthed, he looked at the garden beds, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"How did this happen? What did you do for this to happen? It seems like a miracle?" There were several questions for something so magical.

"That's what we were celebrating, my Alpha, it's a miracle!" exclaimed the excited master, while I slowly backed away from them towards the greenhouse door.

"Where do you think you're going, weirdo? I want to know how your work is going, come here."

This Alpha won't leave me alone, what is he going to get me into now?

"Yes, Alpha Derick, what can I do for you?" I asked, very reluctantly.

"You? Nothing. What good can come from you? Just do what you're told and that's good enough." he turned to the master and asked.

"What did she do yesterday, master?"

The master laughed and approached me, putting his arm around my shoulder in a gentle embrace, looked at me with a smile and said,

"She planted all these new garden beds."

He looked at the Alpha's face, smiling happily, while I lowered my head and shrunk even more.

I was wearing patched shorts and a big, time-worn sweater, so I was very embarrassed. He will never respect me, dressed like this.

"So, bringing her was a good idea, right?! Great, at least now she's good for something." said the arrogant Alpha, all powerful and rude.

He had to take credit for the good work, like any chauvinistic man. Thankfully, he said that and left, saying that he would call Jimi to help with the harvest and would contact the merchants to confirm the delivery.

I looked at the master, who continued to embrace me and reassured me.

"Don't pay attention to all that anger, dear, when he finds his mate, he'll calm down." spoke the voice of wisdom, but I doubt that rudeness will go away.

"I hope it's soon, or one of these days, I'll hit him over the head with a hoe." I tried to disguise my incredulity.

"I would love to see that, little one."

Master Tirion burst into laughter and then we heard a curse and when we looked at the Alpha, we saw him picking up a pebble from the ground, rubbing his head, intrigued. The master looked at me, serious, and looked back at the Alpha, who continued walking, grumbling.

"Be careful, girl, those who play with fire wet the bed, and those who irritate the Alpha, lose their head."

I remained quiet, after all, I didn't do anything wrong, that Alpha is just irritating

Days passed, there was a general excitement with the preparations for the party and also, with the progress of the garden and the sale of fresh vegetables.

We were prospering, the crops were growing "miraculously" and Alpha Derick was very happy, because it meant growth in the sales of products and consequently, improvements for the Pack.

People came to see the garden, I hid, because I didn't want to draw anyone's attention, in fact, I wanted to be invisible and master Túlio understood that.

I started planting other different seeds in the greenhouse and when there was no one around, I caressed them and noticed that the magic flowing stronger and stronger had a pink color, like Rose's fur.

I wonder if this power comes from her.

"No, I don't know where it comes from." answered Rose, butting in.

Thus, the magic worked from the sowing and nothing else was needed. Unlike the orchard, which I only started with grown plants. It was a relief to realize that it was simple and effective magic and didn't require big movements, or reciting difficult words and mantras, it was all very discreet.

The party is tomorrow night, they had prepared a lot of food and drink. The men hunted and the women decorated the village and the forest, as well as made the treats that filled the air with a delicious aroma.

Everything looked very beautiful!

In the center of the Pack, a small stage was set up where the Alpha would receive his confirmation from the blue moon, through the elders, and consequently, his powers would increase and he would recognize his mate.

The young women were excited, wearing new clothes, taking care of their nails, hair, and probably wearing makeup, but none of it mattered, because the mate was recognized by the scent that only their partner would recognize.

I had no illusions about finding my mate, especially because I wouldn't have the courage to transform in front of everyone. I hope no one asks me anything and that they don't even notice my presence.

I haven't seen my mother in any of these past days, but ever since I started working in the orchard, there was always food ready and even some clothes made by her from leftover scraps, waiting for me on the bed.

Today, I finished my work already, all the sowings are done and soon we will have a variety of vegetables, in addition to the fresh and already harvested vegetables that we sell.

I went home, had dinner, and tidied everything up. It's already dark, so I'm going to take advantage of the free time and the fact that everyone is busy with the preparations for the party, to walk in the forest and take a bath in the refreshing waters of the lake.

I didn't release Rose, it can be dangerous. I walked to the lake, took off my clothes, and plunged into the calm waters, refreshing my tired and sweaty body from work. It was delightful and I don't know how long I stayed, floating, admiring the nearly full and blue-ish moon.

I heard the rustling of crushed leaves, I lowered my body to hide in the water and looked towards the shores. There was the Alpha, not transformed, looking at me, but surely not seeing me clearly because, despite the clear moon in the sky, I was in the shadow of the trees that bordered the lake.

"What are you doing here alone?" he asked, looking for someone else.

"What's the problem?" I asked. After all, the lake was public.

"Don't you fear staying here alone? A wolf could appear and harm you," he replied, showing concern.

"Who would harm a weirdo?" I regretted saying that as soon as I spoke. Oh, uncontrollable mouth.

He laughed out loud.

"You're right, who would desire an ugly, ragged woman who can't even transform into her wolf? Alright, feel free, I won't bother you anymore." He stopped worrying when he found out it was me, he's an idiot, really.
