“Don’t do something you’ll regret,” Alec told Shaun as he took a step towards him.“You don’t scare me, vampire,” Shaun said in a growl and took another step. Violence sparked off both of them. This was going to end badly. I jumped in between them, holding my hands out to my sides to keep them from getting closer to each other. “Hey, hey, hey,” I said, pressing my hand into each of their chests. “We’re not doing this. Not tonight. I can’t deal with this tonight. Okay?” They both glared at each other, but each took a step back. “Alec, can I take a rain check on that coffee?” I asked once the level of violence radiating off them decreased. Alec looked away from Shaun to me. “Of course, but you have my number if you need it. Don’t forget who you are,” he said before disappearing or, at least, it looked like he disappeared. Shaun growled again. “Why do you have his number?” His anger made me wince as it grated across my skin. “Can you stop?” I asked him and realized my tone was angry

Why would the alpha hate me so much if he didn’t even know who I was? I didn’t have a clue, and I didn’t think I’d get one tonight. The alpha was too busy demanding Shaun go with him to join the full moon run. I expected the alpha wouldn’t know who I was or perhaps give me a second thought if he did. I was the bottom rung of the pack hierarchy, but his emotions were intense; like he had a reason to hate me. “Understood, Dad,” Shaun said, then turned to me. “Hope you have a good run tonight and stay close to pack.”His dad looked confused, but I got what he meant. Stay away from vampires. “Right, of course,” I told him with a nod.“Let’s go,” his dad demanded and got back into the carShaun mouthed one last ‘bye’ before joining his father. I watched the car drive off, the question of why still bouncing around in my head. “You need to be careful around him,” Alec said, making me jump.I turned to find him standing right next to me. “What are you doing here?

I could tell Shaun had all kinds of questions, but he didn’t ask a single one of them. Instead, he held on to my hand as he drove through the town. He parked the car in a small park on top of a large hill. From nearly every angle of the park, we got a spectacular view of the town. “So what’s this abut the pack bonds,” Shaun asked as we took a seat at a picnic table. “I can see them now.” Taking in the view, I took a moment before answering. “I didn’t before, but last night after I shifted, I could see them.” For a moment, I thought about telling him about the poor state that they were in, but I waited and gauge his reaction. His brow furrowed, and he mussed his hair as he thought. “I’ve never heard of anything like that. Are you sure the vampire didn’t do something to you?”I leveled him with a ‘really?’ glare. “What could he have done? Vampires have no power over our abilities. Despite they can use their vampiric persuasion on us, they can’t force us to shift or not to shift. It’s

“When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging and try filling it instead” stared at me in big blocky white letters. I stared at the motivation quote with the backdrop of an early morning beach of some crystalline blue ocean and wondered why I thought tacking that up in my locker was a good idea. I wasn’t even sure it made sense. “Robin Douglass, you are an idiot,” I whispered as I shook my head. That would explain why I’d think tacking up some silly quote would somehow change the insignificance and dullness of my life. I put the text books I didn’t need into my locker, hiding most of the idiotic quote from my sight. Just as I closed my locker, I heard a familiar voice. I looked up and my heart raced, just like the first time I saw Shaun Hunter back in kindergarten. He was everything an alpha could ever hope for in a son. With his matching chocolate brown eyes and hair, tall but not too tall, strong, but not overly muscular, Shawn was the definition of hot. On top of all that, he

I stared up at the top of the hole. When did a group of fanatical hunters set up their torture shop around here? Why didn’t anyone warn me they were in town? It seemed impossible for a group this dangerous was in the area and the alpha didn’t know it. My stomach tightened. Had he warned everyone and my aunt chose not to tell me?No.I shook my head from side to side, trying to toss away the dark thoughts. My aunt may blame my dad for getting my uncle killed and she may place that blame on me since Dad wasn’t here, but she wouldn’t put me in danger like that. And none of this mattered right now. What did was I had to get out of here before those crazy humans came by to check on their traps. My breath and heart raced as my mind thought of what they might do with me if they found me here. I stumbled back as my head grew light. Suddenly mom’s voice, or what I remember her voice to sound like, surfaced and echoed in my mind. ‘It’s okay to be scared, Robin, but never let that fear turn to

Hurt, and out of time, I closed my eyes and willed my wolf to the surface. I grit my teeth to stop myself from crying out in pain. It was a painful process, made even more painful in the fact I was in a hurry. Brown fur sprouted along my arms and chest as I undressed. My fingers changed, making it more difficult to shove my clothes in my backpack. If I survived this, no way was I walking home in my birthday suit!The whimper of pain turned into a growl as I finished my shift. I heard and smelled the hunters now. It was some comfort that there weren’t only four of them and judging by how their voices carried, still some ways off. I didn’t have much time, but I could still escape before they reached the hole. With my backpack in my massive jaws, I dropped low to the ground and tensed my muscles to prepare for jumping.‘You can do this,’ I told myself before I pushed off from the bottom of the hole into a leap for the top. Claws out, I reached the top and grab onto the ground. A thrill

“Ah, the little wolf.” A hint of a smile appeared on his bloodied lips as he took a step towards me. I hunched down on all fours until my belly grazed the grass. To get away from him, I took a small step back, but in the blink of an eye, he was right behind me. I yelped, turned to face him with a growl. That hint of a smile appeared again on his face as he began walking in a circle around me, looking at me as if I was a bug that had just crash landed in his drink.“Little wolf, little wolf,” he said as he encircled me. “What to do with you?” I didn’t think he actually wanted an answer, so I did my best to stay low and keep my eyes on him. “I should kill you,” he said, but this time he sounded like he was talking more to himself. “Can’t have you running and telling your alpha about the big, bad vampire.” He clicked his tongue as he shook his head, still walking around me like a shark waiting for the perfect moment to strike. “Though, by the look of you… I don’t think anyone is going

“Uh… what is it you want me to do?” I asked, feeling like I was going to regret this. The vampire put his hand to his pants pocket, the flash of fang gone. “Simple. I want you to use you to discover who I can trust and who I can’t in my coterie.”“Right…” I said, dragging out the word. Was he serious? How exactly was I going to do that? “Uhm, despite this might put my chances of surviving this encounter to an all-time low, I can’t do that.”“You can’t?” The vampire almost sounded surprised. “No, that’s not how werewolves work, especially me. I told you I’m an omega. I barely above a human level.”The vampire stared at me, his face a blank slate. “I see,” he said and clicked his tongue. “Yeah…” I said slowly, preparing myself to run. I didn’t think I could outrun a vampire, but maybe if I was able to get back into the alpha’s territory, he wouldn’t dare trespass. “You don’t know what you are, do you?”My brow furrowed as I stared at him. “Uhm,” I started. It was stupid to argue wit

“A vampire,” my aunt exclaimed, then looked at me and I caught a sense of betrayal. “You’re consorting with them… I… I got to tell the alpha!”“I… I got to tell the alpha,” Aunt Lauren said, her eyes wide. She turned to rush into the house, but only took a step before stopping. In a blink of an eye, Alec was in front of her. She gasped, jerking back, but when she met his eyes, my aunt relaxed and didn’t move. Aunt Lauren only just stared back at him.“What did—” I started, but he held up his hand.“You didn’t see a vampire here tonight,” Alec told my aunt. “Robin came home like she does every day. Now, go inside and spend your evening as you do.” Aunt Lauren nodded and walked into the house. I watched her until the front door closed. My stomach twisted into knots. “What did you do?”“I persuaded her to forget,” he said, walking over to stand next to me. “Neither of us wants the alpha knowing about our meetings.”“I see, and that’s it. You did nothing else?”Alec gave me a flat, almost

As soon as I walked into the school, I could feel it. Stress and tension. It filled the halls and made it hard for me to breathe. If I didn’t know the full moon was tomorrow, I would’ve known just from that alone. With the full moon so close, our wolves were at unease and eager to be let loose and feel the moonlight on their skin. The fact there wasn’t yet any moon light to feel didn’t seem to matter to them. So naturally, everyone was cranky and on edge. With a slow breath, I started walking to my locker. As I waded into the crowd, the emotions washed over me. They grated on my skin like a cheese grater and pushed down on me like a ton of weights. After a moment, I slumped forward, wincing at every aggravated comment as it sent a wave of tearing emotions into me. Okay. So this wasn’t so cool. How was I going to get through the day like this? I forced myself to take a deep breath and stand up when I reached my locker. There had to be a way I could put up some walls or something. I

I leaned against the wall where my headboard would go if I had one, half watching a series on my laptop and half bored. At least the rain stopped, I thought as I glanced out my window. Just as another episode started, my phone lit up with a text. Weird. No one texts me. When I grabbed it, a smile broke out across my face. Shaun. How did he even get my number? Though, if I was honest, I didn’t care. He was asking me to meet up with him for lunch. I texted him back asking where to meet him and then tried to decide what to wear. I wanted to look good, yet did not seem like I was trying to look good. Once I was getting near the twenty-minute mark, I decided to dress in a muted rose t-shirt with jeans and black converse. I also brought my black hoodie in case the temperature dropped with all this humidity. Once I was ready, I read his reply, then re-read it. He wanted me to bring the pieces of the book with me. Why should I bring the book with me? Guess I’d have to wait and find out. Wit

My plans for Saturday were to spend most of the day with Shaun, tell him about my abilities and what Alec was teaching me, but he texted me in the morning that between his dad and practice, he was going to be busy all day. So instead, I spent the day studying until it was time to meet up with Alec. It was a dark late afternoon, thanks to the thick clouds and the rain it dropped over the town. I huddled under my umbrella as I walked down the street toward the woods. Dreading the muddy mess I was going to be when I reached our meeting spot, I didn’t notice the car until Alec’s voice cut through the noise of the rain. Never in my life had I ever been so happy to see a car before in my life. I got in, then cringed as water dripped onto the seats. “Sorry.”“Didn’t I tell you to stop apologizing?” Alec said with a small shake of his head.“But your car—”“Is just a car,” he said and nodded to the driver. “I heard about your altercation with some vampires during your visit to my home.

I dropped onto my bed and let my head fall back. Shaun’s ‘I guess so’ kept replaying over and over in my mind. It hurt to hear him say that, because I knew how my cousin thought and she’d think that was him saying okay to a semi-date.My more rational side tried to assure me that Shaun didn’t mean it like that. I wasn’t in the mood to listen to my rational side at the moment. However, I wasn’t in the mood to go over and over everything Shaun said, either. Needing a distraction, I pulled out my English book to get started on homework. I’d just finished the first half of the assignment when there was a knock on the window. When I looked up, Shaun waved at me. What was he doing there? I set aside my text book and opened the window. “What are you doing here?”“Wanted to check up on you,” he said, crawling through the window into my room. “You seemed upset when you left.”“Because I was,” I admitted and sat back down on my bed. “Alisha was flirting with you and you did nothing.”“Of course

The humidity hit me in the face like a boxer’s right hook as soon as I left school. It was yet another gray day threatening rain. Hell, with the amount of humidity already in the air, it might as well have been raining, anyway. I walked a few feet from the door and nervously waited for Shaun.I didn’t want to break my promise to him and I knew it was going to make him upset, but I needed to learn more about what I could do and the only one who around here who seemed capable of teaching me was Alec. Though the question was how to explain that to Shaun. I wasn’t sure I was ready to tell him about of this yet. It was bad enough that the pack looked down on me because of whatever my father had done in the war and, of course, I was an omega. I didn’t want to give people more reasons to hate me.Five minutes passed, and I had seen no signs of Shaun. With a sigh, I started the walk home by myself. I turned and crossed the parking lot when he came jogging up next to me. “Hey, you weren’t thin
