Early next morning the girls started their training, they were given weapons to fight with each other, according to them was "eliminating unwanted pest".
Meanwhile in another room there is a heated argument going on with Alpha Raphael Lycan and his board of Beta's, saying how they need to speed things fast cause Dracula and his vampires are planning on attacking anytime soon, and according to the moon goddess the Luna is a Tribrid and she must be of a royal blood, who will stand by the Alpha and fight of the vampires. They need to decide on the day of the ball where the alpha will have a dance with the virgins and the one who the Alpha has a deep connection with, we be the assumed Luna before the moon goddess sees her and the Alpha's future and blesses her.
In the training room out of twenty girls that came, ten were killed. Let's have a little recap on what happened while we were at the meeting room. As soon as Roselle blew the whistle everybody started fighting except from Eleanor and Mia, but one of the girls where targeting Mia and Eleanor saw it and used a pitch fork which was her weapon to stab right in the gut. Eleanor froze and looked at the body she just killed then at Mia who was looking at her with terror and said I'm sorry, but Mia ran to her and said "thank you for saving me", that when it's dawned on them that if they are going to meet their family in one piece, they have to survive this place by any means possible. They took their weapons and started fighting so at the end of the kill, ten girls died. Roselle told them that will be all for today, when one of the Beta's came in and walked towards Roselle whispering to her something then left, Roselle looked at the ten girls and spoke with an air of authority "there will be a ball tonight where the Alpha will dance with all of you, and any of you that the Alpha has a connection with will be the assumed Luna", the girls where happy there was a ball, their only chance to be free. They left to their quarters to prepare for the ball.
The only one still dazed was Eleanor, different thoughts running through her mind but what kept disturbing her was that what if she was the Luna and what if she was not, she left that thought and went to prepare for the ball, on her way to her quarters she bumped into Alpha Raphael, she looked up to look at who she bumped at, she stood there mesmerized, chiseled chin, long flowy brown hair, black eyes that looks into your soul, his physique would make any lady melt in his arm, its until he cleared his throat that she said I'm sorry, the Alpha looked at her as if studying her and noticed that she doesn't know his the Alpha and nodded at her and asked "Are you new here" Eleanor replied "yes I am, umm if I may ask what is your name and what do you do here", Raphael looked at her while she talked, her hair is dark brown and curly she has Hazel eyes, skin color is dark, her lips are aching to be kissed, she waves her hand in front of him and asked "penny for your thoughts". Raphael looked at her and spoke with amusement in his voice "Little cub my name is Raphael Lycan and what I do here you shall find out tonight".
Eleanor thought the name was familiar and just nodded at him and asked to take her leave which he nodded to, she didn't take more than two steps when Eleanor tripped, she closed her eyes waiting for the fall and the pain that came but none did, she gradually opened her eyes to see Raphael looking at her, she excused herself and thanked him before leaving. Raphael looked at his hands and felt emptiness, when he held her, his wolf was restless like as if his wanted her, like a missing half. What was puzzling him before he met Eleanor was what the Moon Goddess said about his Luna being from a royal blood line but all these girls are just commoners but when he asked her, she said the truth will be revealed later. He was looking forward to seeing Eleanor tonight.

When Eleanor got back to her quarters, she saw some of the girls were discussing about how they will woo the Alpha and become his Luna, while they were talking one of the maids came in and gave each and every one a white ballgown and just dropped a few makeups on a table, as soon as the maid left, they rushed towards the table like a hungry lion running towards its prey. few hours later the girls where Infront of the mirror applying makeup and making sure that their boobs show and I just looked at myself who only wore lip pomade, Mia ran towards her with excitement and said "Eleanor, why didn't you apply makeup, it's the ball" she came closer to her and whispered "you have to be the Luna". Eleanor looked at her and gave a I will try my best look, Mia brought out some of the makeups she stole from the girls and applied it to Eleanors face, after some time Mia exclaimed "Oh my heavens Eleanor you are so beautiful and flawless skin, I didn't apply much make up but you look like someone that just came out from a painting".
