     I woke up with a groggy mind and foggy vision. To help clear my vision, I rubbed my eyes. When I didn't immediately recognize where I was, I bolted straight up from my lying down position. "It's okay, you're safe here." That voice, it didn't sound familiar to me. "Whoa, calm down there pup, I'm not going to hurt you. I put a splint on your ankle to keep it in place until we can get you some professional help."

     Who was this guy, and why did he bring me here? I decided to voice my thoughts to him. "My name is Rian, and I found you half dead and unconscious on the forest floor. I brought you here because it's safe and dry and you will be able to start re-cooperating before we leave. I know what you are though, because I am from the Stone Warrior Pack. I was sent on a peace mission by my alpha, Vec, who wants to become allies with as many packs in the Midwestern area as possible. I assume that you are a part of  the Speeding Arrows pack? That is where I was heading when I found you."

     My mind was crowded with all of the information that Rian was telling me, and it was hard to concentrate with him staring at me so intensely. I could feel my beta hormones kicking in. Rian was attractive, I could give him that much. He has dark brown, almost black hair, with sky blue eyes. His jaw was relatively small, with a soft rounded nose and sharp cheekbones. I guess he really was attractive, but he wasn't my type. "Where am I?" I asked this without telling him that I am indeed from the Speeding Arrows pack. "I need to get back to my pack, they're probably wondering where I am!" Okay, this may have been a small lie, but if I was gone any longer they will start to wonder how my assignment went with the other pack I was fleeing from. I was old enough to handle myself  and not need a beta to hold my hand the whole time!

     Wow... I really need to stop daydreaming. He was looking at me expectantly, like he was waiting for an answer. Which I guess I really did owe him, since he saved my life and everything. "Okay, well first things first, my name is Megan, and I am a part of the Speeding Arrows Pack, I am a beta and the only reason I was out here was to prove to my father that I could be by myself without causing myself or others trouble or pain. I guess he was right though, considering my foot. I was out here trying to make peace with one of the nearby packs, but I think I said some things to them that they really didn't appreciate all that much, so they chased me out of their territory and told me if I ever set foot on their land again they would kill me." After I told him this, he stood above me with a thoughtful look on his face. "Well, I can always deal with them, but first I should probably take you back to your pack before they become really frantic." Rian seems to be a really warm and caring type of person. I could really see him as being a close friend or older brother. Hmm... I guess he isn't the man I thought he was when I first saw him.

Next update should be around August 8th or 9th. Thanks for reading :3
