Chapter 39 Seren

• I had barely slept, but I think that had been more excitement than anything. Today was my birthday. I knew that my wolf could make her appearance at any time. And I wanted to be ready…
• I had heard many tales of friends being woken in the early hours with their wolves desperate to be allowed out to shift. And, a small part of me had hoped that may be the case for me too, but frustratingly, there had been nothing. I tossed and I turned, hoping and waiting, but there was simply radio silence… so, I lay there until sleep had found me, until it was time to get up and enjoy the day my family had planned for me.
• I trudged down the stairs only for my Mum to begin singing the moment I reached the bottom. Cole sat at the breakfast bar, a big grin on his face the moment he had seen me walk into the kitchen, listening to Mum singing happy birthday to me so out of tune it hurt, the way she did every single birthday.
