Claire's POV"I am going to kill that bitch," I said as I walked outside the house. I was pissed, very pissed, and I wanted to go back into that Gameroom and beat the shit out of that girl Susan. "Are you okay, Claire?" Christy asked"Yes, I am just fine," I said as I walked back and forth in the backyard. Gwen and Christy were still with me. "Christy, why don't you go back to your room? I will sit with Claire," Gwen said"I want to make sure Claire is alright," Christy said, and then they both became silent. I wasn't paying too much attention to them because I was still thinking of ways to hurt that girl Susan."Would you mind being with Gwen alone?" Christy asked"No, I will be alright," I said"Okay, I will see you tomorrow," Christy said and then left"Let's sit down, Love," Gwen said, and we sat at a table in the backyard"I know you are not okay. Do you want to talk about it?" Gwen asked"How dare that bitch talk about my mom and dad. How dare she call my mom weak?" I said "I
Claire's POVI woke up feeling sparks going through my body. I opened my eyes and was shocked at what position I was in. I was practically on top of someone's body, and their arms were wrapped tightly around me. I couldn't help the gasp that came out of my mouth when I noticed my head was lying on someone's breast.The sound of the person laughing made me look up to see Gwen smiling back at me. I quickly removed my body from hers."I am so sorry," I said"For what?" She asked"For laying on you," I replied"You don't have to be sorry about that, Love. I'm not sorry," Gwen said and then got up from my bed. "I am going to go get ready for school. I will see you downstairs," she said and kissed my cheek before walking out of my room. I got out of bed and went to shower. I couldn't help but think about Gwen and how good it felt lying with her. I couldn't believe I was lying on top of her. I was so embarrassed I knew that my cheeks had to be red as a tomato. Once I was done showering, I
Claire's POV "Okay, class, don't forget to turn in your test before you leave," Our Spanish teacher said, and we all placed our test on Mr. Tucker's desk before walking out of the classroom. "Hey Claire," Christy said "Hey," I said while putting my books in my locker "Some of us are leaving school early. We are about to go to Crescent Lake. You should come with us," she said "I don't know. I don't want to get into trouble. I haven't been going to this school for long. Plus, what about Jenn," I said "You won't get into trouble. We do this all the time, and no one ever gets caught, and we will be back before school ends. Your sister will be fine," Christy said I thought about if I should go or not. A part of me felt I shouldn't go because I didn't want to get in trouble. But another part of me wanted to go because I haven't done anything fun with people my age since my parent passed away. I hardly had any friends since they were alive. So what could it hurt to act my age for once
Gwen's POVEarlier that Day"I can talk to James myself," I saidI know, but I am still going,' Stephen said, I knew it would be best to tell James first before telling everyone in the Pack. I might not have romantic feelings for him, but I have been in a relationship with him since Freshman Year. So I was sure he felt something for me.It made me feel bad, pretending to want to be with him all these years. He had always been nice to me and deserved an explanation for why I would pretend to want to be with him. The reason was that my father would kill me if I didn't stay with James. He had some arrangement with James' parents for years and always told me I was meant to be with James. My father didn't care that I was not his Mate. I never said anything to my father until now. I was scared that he would get upset just like he did today. But now I am done with the lies, and if my father can't support me being with Claire, then I am done with him toStephen knocked on James' door. James
Stephen's POV"Take him to a cell,' I said when the guards showed up. James was lying on the ground naked from me, biting into his neck. "I can't believe James would shift in front of Claire like that," Gwen said"Me either. He was obviously planning on hurting her," Steven said "We need to get her to the Pack Hospital," I said and then mind-linked Dr. Dawson letting her know we were on our way. Dr. Dawson is around forty years old and the lead Doctor at the hospital. She told me she would have a room ready when we arrived.I picked Claire up bridal style and placed her in the back seat of my car. Gwen got in and Placed Claire's head on her legs. Steven and I got in and began driving to the Pack Hospital. I couldn't believe James would try to hurt my Mate. He was going to be punished for his crimes against her. "Do you think that James had this planned?" Gwen asked"Yes, why else would he come here and not to the meeting? Why else would he be with Claire alone with nobody around?"
Claire's POV"Was my father a werewolf?" I asked, and they all were quiet. I looked at them silently and waited for one of them to answer me."Well,' I asked "Yes, your father was a werewolf," Stephen said"Is that why he left?" I asked"Your father was our father's Beta before he left. The Beta is the second in command, and our father was the Alpha until Steven, and I took over. I don't know how they met. Your grandparents don't like humans. When your father told them that his Mate was human, they wanted him to reject her, but he didn't. My parents said that your grandparents were starting to come around to accept your mother, but then they left," Stephen said"Why did they leave?" I asked"Because they had you. When one parent is human, and the other is a werewolf, there is a fifty percent chance that the child will have a wolf and a fifty percent chance that they will be human. But when the child is a female, there is no chance they will have a wolf. So when they discovered you we
Claire's POVIt has been two days since I learned about werewolves, and I have three Mates. I talked to Sean about my father, who told me he was one of his best friends. He was the best Beta he could have had, and Gwen's father took his position when he and my mom moved. When I asked him why my father had left, he confirmed what Stephen had told me. It was because I was born a girl, and he knew I wouldn't have a wolf.At first, I was upset with my father for not telling me about werewolves. But now I am not. I know that he only did what he thought was best for me. I have been wondering what life would have been like if he and my mom had stayed here. Would they still be alive if they had never left?I still haven't told Jenn about werewolves. I am trying to wait for the right moment, but it never appears to be one. I have also been avoiding Gwen, and the twins since finding out all three of them are my Mate. They have been on my mind since they told me everything. I don't know what I s
Steven's POV "I wanted to let all of you know that," Claire began to say, but then an annoying voice cut her off. "Hey Steven, baby, I missed you," Karen said. "Karen, what are you doing here?" I asked, shocked that she was standing in front of me. Karen and I dated about five months ago and were together for two years. She was clingy and would get upset if I spoke to another female. She would have a breakdown if I said hi to a female. If she thought I was looking for too long, she would go crazy. Finally, I began to realize that she wasn't all there all in the head. She was crazy and I don't do crazy females. I talked to Stephen, and we decided to send her and her family to another Pack we have a treaty with called, The Shadow Pack. Her father is an amazing tracker; they needed help finding their Beta's daughter. I don't understand why she is back. "I came back to see you, silly. I have missed you," Karen said and then tried to sit on my lap, but I stood too quickly, making he
