Forever Mine.....The Browning Pack! PG13 version

Chapter 1

Weird, yeah that’s it, I feel weird my whole world has been tipped on its head, you see, my parents died four months ago and I’ve been shipped away from everything and everybody I know and love to move halfway across the world to live with an aunt and uncle, who I have met maybe once in my 17 years. America I can’t believe I have to leave England and move thousands of miles.

My parents were my world; I had everything a girl could want, a loving family a nice home and more friends than I knew what to do with. I looked just like my mum but I had my dad’s height I stood at 5ft 6in around 6in taller than my poor mum but I had her soft features, long blonde wavy hair and her big full red lips, which I hated I got so many comments throughout middle school that I started to despise them, my friends would tell me that they loved them, that I was so lucky to have such a beautiful face but I never believed them, until High school. 

When I found my looks had most boys falling at my feet, making rude comments and thinking because of the way I looked I was easy, well let me tell you that’s so not the case. I hated looking the way I did, I hated the fact that everywhere I went people would stare so I started to dress down wearing baggy clothes and no makeup but still it never helped.

My parents had given me everything I could want, we were all each other had, my parents had moved from the states when they were teenager’s, they had fallen in love at first sight and that love grew more every day they just could not stand to be apart. That’s why they started there company so they were always together, I never understood it to be honest but they were happy and when I came along everything was perfect…..yeah WAS perfect.

I had been at my best friend Casey’s house when the police had shown up at her door, they told us that my parents had been driving home from a party and were involved in a head on collision they had died instantly…..together, leaving me with nobody.

I had known about my Aunt Sharon and Uncle Sam but I had not seen them since I was five, so now after saying my goodbyes and boarding the plane I was almost about to land in California…..my new home.

I made my way through arrivals having picked up my cases and looked around for some signal of who would be taking me home, I almost lost myself when I came face to face with a man who looked more like my father than I ever remembered it hurt to see that face looking back at me but I held it together as two sets of arms wrapped me into a warm embrace, I crumbled, with everything that had gone on in the last few weeks this was just too much. My aunt took my face between her hands and brought it up to look at hers

“Oh my beautiful girl I’m so sorry for everything, so sorry” She soothed

“Come on girls let’s get you home” a strong male voice said my uncle guided us out through the doors to his car the whole time my aunt never broke her embrace, I felt comforted something I hadn’t felt since before…..No I can’t think it.

I feel myself being put into the back of the car and my aunt sliding in next to me instead of taking the front seat I just leaned into her taking the comfort she was offering, my uncle loaded the cases into the trunk and we were off, off to my new home, my new life…….oh god.

We travelled for about an hour when we stopped outside the most beautiful house I had ever seen it was huge but I knew my Aunt and Uncle had never been able to have kids so this was all for them, at least I wouldn’t get under their feet to much and besides I was 18 in a few day's when I would become an adult in the eyes of the law and then I was gone.

My body was beginning to feel strange again

“Aunt Sharon I feel strange” I blurted out I don’t even know why but the women was being so nice to me, I saw her look quickly towards my Uncle who raised his eyebrow back at her it was like they were having a whole conversation without actually talking…..and I thought I felt weird they were just acting plain weird.

My aunt took me by the hand and led me into their beautiful house, so much had happened recently that I really didn’t take in a whole lot of the tour apart from the kitchen which reminds me I am starving, that’s not like me. My bedroom was next it was the most beautiful room I had ever seen but I would have given anything to back in my room, in my house, with my family, my aunt broke the silence

“Ok Eve this will be your room we left it plain so you could decorate any way you want, your closet is on the left wall, you’re on suite on the right ok honey” she asked

“its beautiful thank you so much for everything” I replied you could see the moisture in her eyes

 “Now Eve downstairs you said you felt strange”, she motioned for me to sit with her on the bed so I did “can you tell me what you meant” ok what does she want me to say

“Well it started a few days ago Aunt Sharon my body feels odd and I’m hungry all the time and it’s like I can hear things and smell things I never could before, you must think I’m crazy I know I’ve been through a lot everyone keeps telling me that, but it’s not that I know it’s not that I’ve never felt this way before, and I’m so angry please what’s wrong with me” I cried I don’t know what to do anymore and she is all I have now

“Oh darling, Eve tell me did your parents ever talk to you about what will happen when you turn 18” she asked worriedly 18th birthday what is she on about I mean I know what happens when you turn 18 in England you take all your mates and go and get pissed its legal there but here its 21 and oh god I’ve just realised I’ll have to go back to school too

“No aunt Sharon, I mean I know you’re a legal adult and I know the drinking laws are different here but my parents never knew I would be coming here so what has that got to do with it.

“Oh dear” She exclaimed before shouting “SAM” loudly, loud enough that I covered my ears but my Uncle came running looking at her like she was the only women on the planet ahh that’s sweet.

“Yes dear what is it” my Uncle asks she replies quickly

“Sam my love I think we have a problem, it seems young Eve here knows nothing about us, about her parents or what she is so I think we all need to sit down and have a talk, is that ok Eve?”

What is she talking about, not knowing what we are or my parents is she on something my parents were restaurant owners had been since they married, but I get the feeling I’m missing something here I guess I had better listen to this.

“Look Eve what I’m about to tell you is not something I want to do when you have only just landed but I would have thought your parents would have told you, and I don’t know why they didn’t but you start school in two days and things are well……different around here, I mean, you…were different honey” he stutters I can tell he is having trouble getting to the point and I can feel that anger boiling up again this is obviously important, something parents were supposed to tell me.

Then I heard my mother’s voice in my head I was eves dropping and she was talking to my father “look John we have to tell her I know you came here to get away and live a normal life but were not normal and Eve will be 18 soon how will we explain it to her” she sounded exasperated “I know Jen, I Know, we will tell her the week before her birthday I promise but right now I could really do with a run you coming?” he asked, this was so confusing maybe they were getting me a car for my birthday as I had just passed me test but there was something else and I think I chose to ignore it to be honest.

“Eve…..Eve honey are you ok?” my Aunt asked,

“Oh yes I’m sorry I’m fine just thinking about my mum and dad” I replied sadly “well I’m sorry but we really do need to talk, you see my darling we are special all of us including your parents, you and our whole family……Eve on your 18th birthday you will become one of us” she said nervously looking at me expectantly

“I don’t understand, what do you mean special? I’m….we’re just normal people what’s so special about that?” I really don’t understand,

 “Eve you’re a werewolf darling and you will have your first change the night of your 18th birthday” Ok so this is some kind of joke surely I mean who on earth would believe that I’m not stupid, so I laugh I can’t help it, it’s a natural reaction but the looks on my Aunt and Uncles faces tells me they don’t think it is. Oh shit they are really serious.

So not only have i lost everything i ever loved and had to leave the only home i have ever known, I'm going to turn into a great big stinking dog on my 18th birthday....I really fucking hate my life right now.
