Hey everyone, This is my first Werewolf Story, I don't exactly no whats going to happen until I write it so stuff may come out of no where. Some of these characters are based on real people and those people are amazing. Some of the Wolf-things such as mating and transformation are based on what I think they'll do. I did not write this story on my own. My brilliant editor Shanni who is actually the person I based Shayla on. I hope you all enjoy it.
Chapter 1:
I loved running, it always made me relax and calm down if I was angered by something or someone, I gazed around the forest near the house and marvelled at what I saw. I’ve lived in this town since I was born but it is still beautiful to me; i always find myself admiring anything and everything around me any chance i get. Melville is a small town that has had my family in it for generations. We were always so at peace until we were attacked by the Colden Pack, they are a strong but blood thirsty pack. They don’t have any value for human life and won’t hesitate to kill women or young children; they make me sick and I want my revenge on them. 5 years ago when I was just 12 we were attacked by this horrid pack and my entire family were killed except for me and Shayla because we had gone into town that afternoon. I’m a werewolf and my family and I have always had the gene in the family since the first one of us were turned. We were a strong pack and getting stronger with the birth of my brother who phased just 1 week after his first birthday, he was to be the next Alpha. The Colden Pack knew this and wanted to end us as quickly as possible, so they did. Here I am, an orphan. Without my family I only have Shayla, she’s been my best friend since she first came to live with us just after my 8th birthday. We instantly clicked and I don’t think I could have gotten through this all without her. After my family died we luckily still had money to live off of as our family didn’t spend their money carelessly like most. There was enough to support ourselves for a good few years before we both got part-time jobs while attending school. Shayla was an orphan and often got teased for it from the less humane people at school. However, after my family were murdered we both grew less tolerant of the sneers, looks and comments about our dead families and often lashed out at people quite viciously. We soon became feared outcasts; the comments stopped but the looks still persisted.
Shayla and I, are currently in year 12 and must I say that I’m so glad school is almost over. We have just over 10 months to go then the two of us are free to go off to college without looking back. We are still going to come home on weekends and holidays to take care of the house but our nearest neighbours have an older son who will live with his girlfriend and take care of the house for us. I’m sitting in class – art – with Shayla and as usual the teacher is telling Shayla what a good job she is doing. She is so creative and always has such amazing drawings and paintings. She constantly tells me that she isn’t that good but I just tell her to shut up and accept her gift. I was still in my own world, thinking of running when a tall brown haired boy with clear blue eyes walked in the door. The wolf in me spoke, “MINE”. Oh shit! No, this can’t be happening. I can’t possibly be this boys mate? He was so dreamy and he just can’t be the one! I’m not ready to have pups and get married...My mind was going a mile a minute. Mr. Pringle welcomed him to the class.
“Oh Mr. Hades, there’s a free seat next to Leisha why don’t sit there” The boy looked at me and stared, a range of emotions flurried across his face – happiness, anger, fear, sadness then joy - I whined but only Shayla heard. She looked at me and raised her eyebrows then spoke
“Leish, what’s wrong?”, I couldn’t bare to tell her but some how managed to.
“I think...it feels like....i think he’s my mate? My wolf just growled and said ‘mine’...Shayla what the hell do I do!?” She looked happy at first but then realised the depth behind my panic
“Why are you fretting so much about this? You should be happy, you finally found your mate and he's gorgeous! I wonder if he’s a wolf? I hope so! Oh Leish! You don’t have to have pups with him yet, he looks barely 18 himself! Trust me, just get to know him” She buzzed.
“Shayl...Shh he’s coming!” I hissed. She went back to painting giving me a sympathetic squeeze of my hand first. I just had to play it cool and hope he didn’t notice me to much or try to talk to me. Even though if i'm being honest all I wanted to do was have him hold me already... He sat down and I felt the heat of his body next to me and immediately wanted to touch him, get closer, anything! I was holding back and trying to focus on my drawing. He cleared his throat, I slowly turned to look at him, his eyes were mesmerising and I felt like I’d get lost in them, he smiled.
“Hello I’m Trey, who are you?” I looked down.
“Umm Leisha, where you from?” I smiled at him nervously and tried to not sound like an idiot.
“I just moved from Austin. Um, do you think you could show me around? It took me ages to find it to this class” He laughed nervously and looked down. I couldn’t help giggling which was probably the most idiotic thing I could have done.
“You have a really cute laugh” I stopped and looked at him completely shocked, god knows what my face looked like. I quickly replied ignoring his compliment,
“Umm.. We’re about to finish, so yeah I’ll show you around. This is Shayla by the way” I looked at Shayla and they said a quick hello to each other, the bell rang and we stood up.
I looked at him and tried not to sound like a love sick puppy.
“So what’s your next class?” He pulled out his schedule “English, Miss Lent” We had the same class. Great, now I had to deal with Shelby lusting over him and trying to make a move, as per normal. Dumb slut should learn that she can’t keep spreading her legs to every boy she see's otherwise she’s going to catch something.
“We have the same class come on. I’ll see you later Shayl” I gave her a quick hug and she whispered slyly for me to be confident, saying that the Alpha female can’t just let her mate make her all nervous and flustered. She giggled and pranced off. It’s weird because he smells like what i would imagine a male werewolf to smell like but I’ve never smelt one before to be sure. This was killing me.
We walked slowly and kept catching each other staring at the other, it was kind of awkward but we found some things to talk about eventually. We found out we like similar music, we are both into metal/hardcore which is exciting because I’m always having to go with Shayla to shows and watch her beat up all the guys in the pit while I stand at the front head banging away! We both love it! He told me of some cool gigs this week and invited me to go with him, I agreed. We walked into our classroom and I went to my seat while he introduced himself to Miss Lent, just as I sat down he came over and sat down next to me. Shelby and Tara immediatly turned around in interest and introduced themselves to Trey, then asking him to sit with them at their table for lunch. Shelby looked at me like I was filth and I quickly gave her the finger before Miss Lent could see. Shelby looked at me like she wanted to kill me now.
“Oh Leisha, you missed a great party on Friday, oh wait your wearing the same shirt as the other day, why don’t you ask your parents for more money…oh my bad I probably shouldn’t have said that!” She winked viciously and turned around. I could feel my hands shaking intensely. Trey looked at my hands and saw one of my nails turn into a big black claw, I couldn’t change in front of them all, I ran out of the classroom and out the school gate to my car.
