A Runt Luna
Chapter 41

"Thanks for coming." Rory smiled giving her a hug.

"No problem, I am so glad you decided to call me." Blue smiled.

"Let me set out some of the food and we can sit down and talk." Edna said grabbing the food.

"Is your mate coming?" Blue questioned looking around for Kole.

"He's supposed to be, he has a meeting so he will get here when he can." Rory explained, wishing more than anything that he was already there. As if wishes could come true there was a knock on the door and Georgia moved to let the person in. Rory smiled as Kole moved towards her taking his place at her side.

"Well I need to get back home, Alex is supposed to be taking me to lunch." Georgia spoke and gathered her things. "Let me know if you need anything." She said locking eyes with Rory.

"See you later." Kole said with a nod before he turned to the women that was supposedly holding all the answers for his little mate.

"Thank you for sticking around." He said.

"Of course." Blue nodded. Edna came back with the deli sandwiches and fruit on plates for each of them, Kole's plate holding four sandwiches instead of one like the others.

"Thank you Edna." He said.

"Now, what would you like to know?" Blue said after a moment of them eating.

"I guess how I ended up in a wolf pack." Rory said tensing up, her nerves taking over her thoughts.

"Of, course." Blue nodded. "Let me give you a little more detail about the Kingdom and that will lead into those answers."

Rory felt Kole take her hand as she nodded, ready for the answers she's been wanting since she was a little girl.

"The Kingdom, used to have more of presence in the world of Shifting. In the beginning of time, the Kingdom was made of Six Houses. Originating from North America; was the House of Bears, South America- Canines, Europe- Monkeys, Asia- Snakes, Africa- Feline, and Australia- Birds. Obviously there was no House from Antarctica as it is inhabitable for Humans. Within each house there are many species of the animal. Overtime, the Hunters were slayed down the shifters, as of now only three of the House are still in existence; the Wolves, Snakes and the Birds. The Kingdom Elders are in charge of monitoring all the houses and track who is mating with who and their lineage and there was only one family that were Foxes. Your parents; Nico Franklin, son of John and Gloria Franklin, and your mother Isabella, son of Henry and Fiona Barber, married young. Your mother was a full human so your parents relationship was a tad taboo but not forbidden. They married when your father was 20, your mom 17. They didn't have you until much later, your mother was 35 and father 38. You were only two when you were kidnapped by rouges who were working with Hunters. We don't know exactly how you ended up in Darren's pack and we didn't know that they had you until one of our scouts saw you in Kole's pack." Blue explained.

"So they didn't give me up?" Rory asked shocked.

"Of course not." Blue said.

"Where are my parents then?" Rory hesitated.

"Unfortunately they were killed by some Hunters and Rouges when they were looking for you..." Blue whispered, knowing how hard it would be for her to replace out that her parents didn't abandoned her, but that they were also dead.

Kole reached over and put his hand on her back, gently rubbing it. He couldn't imagine how she felt replaceing out the truth about her parents, but also not being able to actually meet them.

"I'm sorry, I know that it's not what you would like to hear." Blue frowned.

"No, that's ok." Rory said, looking at her hands.

"I'm going to go make some more tea," Edna said quietly, "Blue, why don't you help me?"

"Sure." Blue nodded, understanding that she was called away to give Kole and Rory some time to themselves.

"Rory, are you sure you're alright?" Kole said kissing the side of her head.

"I suppose. It's not like I'm really losing out on anything, I didn't know them to begin with. I guess believing that they were terrible parents that abandoned me throughout my childhood and replaceing out that it

wasn't the case, kind of puts me to

ease." Rory explained.

The duo sat in silence for a while before Blue and Edna came back into the room laughing.

"I need to be heading back to the Elders' Mansion, but I am supposed to invite you to the annual ball. It's held in the first weekend in

December, so it gives you a conet

months to think about it. I will send the formal invitation when get to the house, but look for it in the mail." Blue said.

"Thank you, and thank you for staying around to answer my questions." Rory said standing up to hug their guest goodbye.

"Of course, and you have my number so let me know if you need anything." Blue said hugging her in return.

Rory stood on Edna's porch, watching as Blue shifted into the Blue Jay and flew away. She rest her head against Kole's chest and thanked the Moon Goddess that at least she had him.
