Bab 174: Annalynne's Crowning Ceremony

Ronan Silverback and his Beta Jake stood with other Alphas and Betas in the vast, verdant grass field. They formed a trust circle, with those from the Silent Walkers Pack kneeling in the middle. Their backs were stiff and straight, but their heads were slightly bowed.

An air of solemnity washed over the werewolves when the High Seer made her appearance with a few priests and priestesses in tow. Despite her old age, she was blessed with an everlasting youthful appearance. For this occasion, she wore her long silver hair in a French braid bun that was accessorized with flower hairpins.

After the High Seer took her place in front of the kneeling werewolves from the Silent Walkers Pack, she extended both of her hands in front of her.

"Welcome, all Alphas and Betas," she greeted everyone with a voice that was both light and commanding at the same time.
