Chapter 77: Ancestry

[Authors Note: All updated now!]

Aila's mouth flopped open, but she quickly recovered herself and walked to stand by Damon's side. The painting in front of them showed a couple, her ancestors. The paint and styling of the portrait seemed to be of the classical lighting and use of paints from the medieval era. Aila glanced back down to the plaque that read:

The first Alpha King and Queen of Silver Crescent Pack: 

Alpha Mathias Cross and Luna Amelia Cross.

1549.

There was no doubt that Amelia was her ancestor; they looked identical. Amelia's features were sharp and very pale, even with the dark lighting and dull paints used. What stood out the most, other than her luminous white hair, which was pulled back in a half-up hairstyle, was her eyes. Aila stepped closer to assess them, they were also crystal blue, but there seemed to be another colour in them.
