I’ve run away from there for the night.

I can’t believe what’s happened.

My mom and dad ran away.

Leaving their own daughter, with no one else.

I’ve been moved into the pack house, full of stupid boys.

The pack doesn’t know what to do with me, even though I’m alpha.

So they stripped me of the title, and now I’m a human. Again.

Maybe this is fate. I was never supposed to be a werewolf this young, and my parents were never supposed to have me.

I’m just a pointless mistake.

I can’t exactly run, can I?

I was in the forest, and I kicked down a tree.

What?

The tree landed with a large crash on the floor, and people came running from the house to find me.

I just kicked down a massive oak tree.

Werewolves don’t even have that power.

Maybe I’m not even a wolf.

The tears I have been holding finally fell out of my eyes.

“You’re just a mistake, Cherry” I said to myself. Werewolves are supposed to have an inner wolf, aren’t they? Why isn’t she appearing?

I was just a lie. My life was a lie.

Someone’s arms wrapped around me, as if they had been searching for me.

I hadn’t realised how long I’d been outside for.

“Cherry! What are you doing?” A relieved voice asked.

“Get off her! She needs medical attention”

“No…I’ll see to her” A voice I recognised ordered, and someone lifted me off the ground.

I must have fallen asleep, because when I woke up, I was by a fire, in an old cottage.

“What…where am I?” I said, sitting bolt upright.

“I have too much explaining to do” A voice said from behind me, and I realised a woman was stood there. She looked old enough to be my grandmother. “I will get into it right away” She pursed her wrinkled lips.

“One sacred day, you were born, the first of your kind, to Isi and Ayelen. No one had seen anything like you, so your parents, Isi and Ayelen, abandoned you, at the foot of an orphanage. No one knows what has become of them. So you are not who you think you are. You are a werewolf, but not a werewolf like the rest of this pack. You are sacred. You are Naira, a spirit god. You are royalty. You are much more than alpha. You are a protector. Your adopted parents, left you, as I asked them to. This is the only way things will come clear”

“B-bu-but how come I feel the same way about boys, how come I have mates?”

“You are still a werewolf, Naira. People have forgotten our roots, our Native American ones. You must remember we are still a tribe, as we were in the 1600’s. You are a spirit. You will never die, and neither will your loved ones. The one who cheated you…will get his punishment. You have the power to punish him, and you have the power to protect him. You can do this with anyone. You are a powerful being, Naira. You must learn this”

“I want to go back now”

“No, Naira. It is dangerous. There is a war brewing”

“Why?”

“People want you as alpha”

“This is why you must let me go. I must speak to the people, explain who I am, and why these people need to pass it on to someone else” I got up, and found the door in this tiny cabin.

“One last piece you need to know” She told me.

I nodded.

“You have the strength to do anything, the mental and physical strength”

“Thank you”

I walked out, into the cold weather outside. The wind hit me, and the rain fell onto my clothes.

I walked into the streets, the clouds giving everything a grey hue. I shuddered. There was an unmistakable tension in the air, and I knew it was about me.

I found my way to the pack house, and there was no respect for me there. I gave one final order:

“I order humans and wolves alike, into the hall for one final meeting”

***

Everyone gathered in the massive hall.

“I’m starting now, because you’re all irritated with me, and I would be too” I looked down at the notes I had prepared.

“I am not alpha anymore, I hand it on to Josh” I met his eyes, and dropped his gaze.

I knew he was my mate, and so did he. I contained myself, the atmosphere dulling what is known to be the best day of your life: finding your soul mate.

“I am protector of the land, a spirit god, Naira. I am here to protect and care for the pack; I am not an alpha. I am just different. I am still a werewolf, it is just I am spirit, and it is my life to protect you. I am only missing my inner wolf. But I am much stronger than all of you. I can heal as well as kill. I am always here, even after I have run away, which I am going to do…right now”

I ran out of the hall, anger possessing me.

I am nothing.

Nothing.
