(Ryder's p.o.v)

After I closed the door, it seemed Rick (my wolf) was on edge and pacing.

'What's wrong?' I asked him through our link.

'Follow, make sure okay!' He yelled back.

'Geez, calm down. What's so special about her, she's just human.' I asked.

'I don't know but there's something about her' he responded.

'Okay' was the last thing I said to him before I closed our link. I quickly looked out the window by the grout door to see if she was still there. She was but she was a lot further than she should have been even if she ran.

I quickly ran out the backdoor and stripped before changing into my black wolf. Once I changed I quickly ran after her or as some would say chased her down.

Black wolves are very rare nowadays, so everyone was surprised the day I shifted, that was the day before my whole pack, the dark moon pack, was completely wipe out except 9 of us. Jessie, Ruby, Ashely, Laura, Dustin, Justin, John, Axel, and me. The funny thing is they are all mates while I sat here mateless as usual. Being a black wolf means that your smarter, stronger, faster and more intimidating then normal wolves even alphas apparently. I have only ever meet a few alphas but I have no clue how they feel when I'm in their territory.

Since I'm faster then most, it only took me 45 minutes to track Lucy's scent, which was a mix between hot spices and cinnamon, to an old burnt down building that for some reason had the faintest smell of werewolves. If you looked closely you would notice the house it was surrounded by forest but that's not the interesting thing, no, the interesting thing was that if u looked closely at the forest you would see a small house or cottage built in to the trees.

As I got closer to the building I noticed that it was actually built out of trees, as in the trees were actually formed and shape into the shape of a house, but that shouldn't be possible.

Quickly running deeper in to the forest in search of the bags of clothes my pack laid amongst the trees, egar to investigate this building. It didn't take me long to locate one of the bags my pack had discreetly hidden.

Before I took over this territory it belonged to Alpha James Bell and Luna Mary Bell with their son Nathan Bell. Some say that them and their whole pack (the crescent moon pack) was slaughtered by rouges who then burnt their pack house while others believe they were killed by their daughter who was kept a secret because she was destined to be the first and only Phoenix shifter in all of shifter history, or something like that. But there was no proof that they even had a daughter or not because them and their whole pack where wiped out in a fire that burnt their pack house to a pile of ash, even everyone insides bones were left as a pile of ash.

Me, in my oppinion, I believe they had a daughter but she died with them in the fire cause think about it no one could have survived that. And with that fire brought the end of the crescent moon pack.

As I reached the little cottage, the first thing I did was check if it was a rouge house. What caught me off guard was that all I could smell was Lucy Bells fiery scent everywhere and it was-

Sudden realization dawned on me, Lucy Bell, as in James and Mary Bell. Coincidence much? One way to find out and now's better than never I suppose.
