Born on the Blood Moon

Chapter two

As we near the house I hear him muttering, "no wonder she doesn't want to leave this place is beautiful."
He's not wrong, I take great pride in my home.

My house is a ranch style home with german schmear walls on the outside. I have a covered porch with wood beams in a medium dark color finish. I have a porch swing on one end and rocking chairs and a small table between them. I have flowers in pots and planted in the front, purples, pinks, reds, oranges, whites, yellows, and many more.

I open the door letting him inside, where he looks around making a slow turn. The main living space is open floor plan with tile floors that look like wood, white walls with vaulted ceilings. Exposed beams run along the ceiling. I have built in shelves with books on them, a forty inch TV with games and movies underneath with my xbox 360. I have comfy love sac couches that are a light gray/ tan color, they sit on a plush beige rug.
My potted plants add splashes of green here and there.

The pictures on the wall are ones I've taken, one of the prints is of Kohaku.
The Gamma stops and stares at that print the longest.

"So Mr. Gamma what do you want to eat?" I say causing him to look at me.

"My name is Leon, umm just a sandwich is fine I'm not THAT hungry," he says trying not to be too imposing I guess but his loud ass stomach growls say otherwise.

Blushing he looks away, smiling I shake my head, "you dont have to lie to me, how bout you shower and I'll make us dinner?" I offer.

"Thankyou very much," he bows his head.

"There is a guest room second door to the right, there is towels in the bathroom and gym shorts and shirts in the closet." I say turning to the kitchen.

I hear his feet padding down the hall, then the door closes. Ok what to make? Hmm let's see, I just bought some ground beef and mushrooms the other day. So spaghetti it is, I start browning the meat, while that's doing its thing I clean the mushrooms. I then chop them and onions and a little garlic.

Once the meat is done I drain the grease and throw in the onions, mushrooms, and garlic, then season with salt and pepper and a little chipotle powder to give it a kick.
I boil Angel hair pasta, butter bread and put Italian seasoning on top and pop it in the oven.

Once my onions are see through I add the sauce. Mixing it all together, I drain the pasta and mix it with the sauce. Once that's done I pull out the bread, and through a salad together.
Turning I notice Leon watching me from the island.

"Hope you're hungry," I say and he nods enthusiastically making me chuckle. I plate up the food and place his in front of him. "Dig in," he didn't need to be told twice. I pulled two water bottles from the fridge giving one to Leon.

As I sat down I looked out the kitchen window to my lake wondering how they even found me, I'm unlisted for security reasons, not to mention the only werewolf friends I have live four hours away and I know they would never give me up.

"This is really good!" Leon says between bites pulling me from my thoughts.

"Glad you like it," I say eating as well, I can ask questions after I eat.

After that we ate in companionable silence. After we polished off the food Leon leaned back rubbing his stomach, "Holy Crap that was good I haven't had a good home cooked meal in years," he says then burps really loud. "Oops sorry about that excuse me," he blushes.

I laugh and shake my head reaching for the dishes I take them to the sink to wash them. "Ok I'll bite why haven't you had a good home cooked meal in years?" I ask.

I turn to look at him, he blushes a deeper red, "I'm not a good cook, I got banned from the kitchen six times, I set the kitchen on fire last time and they said I'm officially never allowed to try to cook again. The alpha and beta also suck at cooking and so we only eat fast food."

"Wow, what about his choice girl before she left?" I ask curiously.

"She was worse than me, atleast I tried to get better, no one else at the house does." He grumbles, he must get teased for it.

"What about the elders in the pack or Omegas?" I ask.

"They all live separately from us, the elders have their own homes and the omegas were kicked out of the house.
Most now live in a dorm type of building. Maverick didn't want them in the house anymore. The dorm is next to the fields, they grow the produce and sell most of it for the pack income, then they clean the house and leave. Maverick likes fast food so he doesn't care that they no longer cook."

"That's just pathetic I'm sorry but really come on." I shake my head again and go back to washing the dishes. Looks like I got out in time before things changed.

"What kind of Alpha does that to his people, and how the hell are you not broke yet?" I ask.

"That's just it we are going to end up going broke at some point, but the biggest problem we have is hes broken. It started when his mother caught his father cheating with Mary. I mean yeah she would feel it but when she confronted him, he chose Mary. Then she tried to kill herself, Maverick was the one who found her. The day the rogues attacked, he told me what he had told you, he didn't care that Mary died infact he was happy but he did care about you. He was quietly freaking out, then you turned up he was glad you didn't die. Then his dad kept blaming you for Mary's death and he told Maverick that you knew about them the whole time. That's when he started to hate you he said.
His dad told him the truth a week ago, he then ordered us to find you. You're not easy to find," he chuckles.

"How did you find me?" I ask.

"I prayed to the Moon Goddess for guidance and she led me here," he smiles.

Moon Goddess, please tell me that doesn't mean you expect me to go back, PLEASE?!
