Blood Moon

Chapter 8

The next few days were brutal. The training lasted all day and all night but i discovered that werewolves can go three days without anysleep. So that is what we did. I went through every last little bit of training and I even went through the magic test. But it turns out I dont have any special gift. Every night we would go back to the little cabin that me and Zach shared. I missed my parents. They must be worried about me. I went back to the cabin alone and sat on the bed. I stared at the full moon through the open window. I thought about the memories we had together, and i started to cry, i sobbed softly praying that no body would hear me. It turns out that some body did. I wasnt paying attention so i didnt hear the sound of approaching foot steps until Zach opened the door. I whipped my head around to look at.him , a defensive growl slipping out. I quickly looked down embarassed.

" Sorry.". I said.I kept my head down so he wouldnt notice the tears. But my voice mustve given it away. He grabbed me in his arms and pulled me off the bed. I was standing there in his arms, his hand were around my waist and he was holding me tight.

" Shh Amber , its okay hun, tell me whats wrong. "He said, and i sobbed even more but I told him

" I miss my parents, they must be so worried about me, I dont know what they are doing at this moment and it is driving me insane." I couldnt stop sobbing. He pulled me on to the bed and I curled into his chest.

" Amber, it is for the best. If your parents find out what we are, we will all be hunted to near excstinction. The vampires would hurt us and turn us in. Any other pack could fight them off. Our pack could fight off a few, but we are small. Other werewolf packs will attack us just for the fun of it. Us wolves fight to protect the loved ones here. We make sure we get them to safety, and then we fight. We have lost a few brothers, and once even a sister, but it was their ability to do abd fught for whats right, that made them so remembered. I lost my brother to a vampire long ago. I will never forget his name. Clyde. I was only a young cub, and he killed my older brother and my parents and spared my life for a later day. I hate them. They deserve to die." By the end of that he was crying. I curled into him and cried too. I eventually fell asleep, Thinking about Zach and his life, i felt bad. My dreams turned into night mares. And everything that I used to think was true , Has been questioned.
