Four Mates And A She Wolf

Chapter 19



The sun rose slowly over the horizon, casting a soft golden glow over the landscape as the day began. For Avery and her mates, today was not just any day-it was the day they would seek out the Shaman, hoping to find a solution to their impossible predicament. The stakes were high, but their resolve was unwavering.

Avery stood in front of her mirror, brushing her long, chestnut hair with deliberate strokes. She glanced at her reflection, her green eyes filled with determination. She was dressed in a simple, yet elegant, white dress that flowed gracefully around her ankles. It was a day that demanded both strength and serenity, and she felt the weight of it in her every movement.

Downstairs, her mates were gathered, each one preparing in their own way. Shane paced the living room, his brow furrowed in thought. His broad shoulders and confident stance exuded a sense of leadership, but even he couldn't hide the tension that simmered beneath the surface. Sean sat on the edge of the sofa, his hands clasped tightly together, his usual carefree demeanor replaced by a rare seriousness. Cruz leaned against the wall, his arms crossed over his chest, his eyes closed in silent meditation, while Roger stood by the window, staring out into the distance, lost in his thoughts.

Avery took a deep breath, steeling herself for the day ahead, and made her way downstairs. As she entered the living room, all eyes turned to her, and she felt the strength of their support and love wash over her. "Are we ready?" she asked.

"We're ready," Shane replied. "No matter what happens today, we'll face it together."

Sean nodded, a determined glint in his eye. "We won't let the rules dictate our fate. We're in this together."

Cruz opened his eyes and straightened up, his expression resolute. "We'll find a way. We have to."

Roger turned away from the window, his gaze meeting Avery's with a look of unwavering support. "Let's do this."

With a silent nod, they set off on their journey, each step bringing them closer to the Shaman's dwelling. The path wound through dense forests and over rolling hills, the beauty of nature offering a brief respite from the heavy burden they carried. As they walked, they spoke little, each lost in their own thoughts, but the unspoken bond between them grew stronger with every passing moment.

After several hours, they arrived at a small clearing deep in the forest. In the center stood a humble wooden cabin, smoke curling from the chimney, and the scent of burning sage lingering in the air. Avery felt a shiver of anticipation run down her spine as they approached the door, their hearts pounding with a mixture of hope and trepidation.

Shane stepped forward and knocked on the door, the sound echoing through the quiet clearing. Moments later, the door creaked open, revealing an elderly woman with long, silver hair and piercing blue eyes that seemed to see straight into their souls. She wore a simple robe adorned with intricate patterns, and a serene smile played on her lips.

"Welcome," the Shaman said. "I have been expecting you."

Avery's heart skipped a beat at the Shaman's words, and she exchanged a nervous glance with her mates. "Thank you for seeing us."

The Shaman nodded and stepped aside, allowing them to enter. The interior of the cabin was dimly lit, the air thick with the scent of herbs and incense. Shelves lined the walls, filled with jars and bottles of various potions and remedies, and a large, circular rug adorned the center of the room.

"Please, sit," the Shaman said, gesturing to the rug. "We have much to discuss."

Avery and her mates settled onto the rug, forming a circle around the Shaman. The elderly woman took a seat opposite them, her eyes scanning each of them with an intensity that made Avery feel as though she were being laid bare. "You seek a solution to a grave predicament," the Shaman began. "The rules dictate that one cannot have more than one mate, lest they all face certain death. Yet you, Avery, find yourself bound to four."

Avery nodded, her throat tight with emotion. "Yes, that's correct. I don't want to choose between them. I love them all, and I can't bear the thought of losing any of them. We need to find a way to be together without anyone dying." The Shaman's eyes softened with understanding, and she reached out to take Avery's hand, her touch warm and comforting. "Your love is a powerful force, Avery. It is rare to see such a bond shared between multiple mates. The rules were put in place to prevent the chaos that such powerful connections can bring, but perhaps there is a way to honor your bond without bringing harm."

Avery felt a spark of hope ignite within her at the Shaman's words. "Please, tell us what we can do," she pleaded.

The Shaman closed her eyes and took a deep breath, as if drawing strength from the very air around her. When she opened her eyes again, they seemed to shimmer with an ethereal light. "There is a ritual," she said slowly, her voice taking on a melodic cadence. "A ritual that can bind your souls together, transcending the physical laws that govern this realm. It is ancient and powerful, and it requires the utmost trust and commitment from all involved."

Shane leaned forward, his eyes filled with determination. "We'll do whatever it takes," he said firmly. "Just tell us what we need to do."

The Shaman nodded, her expression serious. "Very well. The ritual must be performed under the light of the full moon, which is tomorrow night. You will need to gather several items: a branch from the oldest tree in the forest, a vial of water from the sacred spring, and a crystal that has absorbed the energy of the sun and moon for a full lunar cycle. These items will serve as the conduits for your bond."

Sean's brow furrowed in thought. "Where can we find these items?"

The Shaman smiled softly. "The forest will guide you," she said cryptically. "Follow your instincts, and you will find what you seek. Once you have gathered the items, return here, and we will perform the ritual together."

Avery felt a mixture of hope and apprehension as she processed the Shaman's words. It was a daunting task, but the promise of a solution fueled her determination. "Thank you," she said sincerely. "We will do our best." The Shaman nodded, her eyes filled with compassion. "May the spirits guide you," she said softly. "And remember, your love is your greatest strength."
