STACY'S POV

I gasped as my once thought of as a loyal boyfriend fell to a pile on the ground. Loran quickly got to her knees and held his hand, "C'mon. C'mon, Sam, wake up!" 

My now dried tears were wiped off of my face and I was kissed on my forehead. "Let's go." Troy tried pulling me out of the corridor,  but he couldn't. I couldn't move. I was frozen to the spot, my eyes couldn't leave Sam and Loran. Loran had her head on his chest, she was crying and murmuring encouraging words in his chest. 

Sadness bubbled up in me from the betrayal that I had just witnessed and the weakness that I felt. My wolf was encouraging me to go with my mate. So was Troy, but I couldn't hear anything anymore but the cries of Loran.

I was suddenly swept off of my feet as I was being carried by Troy out of the corridor. I put my hand on his chest, feeling his heartbeat. I leaned my head to the side, causing it to drop on his large chest. 

He carried us to a bench sitting down but not letting go of me. I shifted a little, putting my head in the crook of his neck and my butt on his lap. He turned his head to look at me. I was confused as to why pain and worry flashed in his eyes. I decided to take a peek in his thoughts.

Why did this have to happen to my mate? Out of all the girls, that bitch had to pick mine to break her heart. Why? What's wrong with his mate? Why did he reject her? Or, why did she reject him? Why am I so confused? No, why are they so confused? I'm not confused. I know things. I love my mate. That little fucker loves my mate. He also loves his mate. He needs to choose one. No, he needs to choose the girl in there with him, not mine. "Yes, ours,"  my wolf needs to not talk to me at times like this. Wait, why does my girl look triumphant? 

I quickly stopped listening and tried to cover up my proud face. 

"Woah, look at Stacy Keller! I think she's cheating on her boyfriend." A blonde, chearleader looking girl in my 3rd period PE class whispered to her tall, thin red head friend. The red head poked her elbow in the side. 

"Dummy, that's probably her mate! You know she would never do anything bad to Sam!" 

"Oh, well My Goddess her mate's hot. She's so lucky." The blonde rubbed her side where she got hit.  

I growled. Oops. They quickly stepped backwards. Although I wasn't that powerful in my pack, being the Beta's third child, I was powerful at school. I had power over most people here, being someone very popular and pretty. I wasn't a mean girl or anything, but people knew where their loyalties lied. 

"Did you not forget that this is an all werewolf's school? I can hear you, you know." I got up and stomped to her. A crowd started forming around us, not that there wasn't already. 

"Told you," redhead murmured. 

"I-I'm sorry." My eyes must've gone black, my wolf was taking over. She was already pretty pissed, anything about her mate would've thrown her over the edge. 

"My wolf's taking over. Leave before something happens," I demanded strenuously. "All of you." when no one moved, I let my wolf take over to prove a point. 

I expected her to start growling uncontrollably, not shift.

"Shit," Troy gasped. He was shifting too. 

I felt my bones crack and heard Troy's. We both screamed in agonizing pain. This is going to be really embarrassing to shift in front of people. I thought to myself. I was finally finished and stood in my wolf form. I heard collective gasps from people around us. I looked over at Troy. He was looking at me. We both let out howls of excitement from being White Wolves, or Pura Lupus's.

White wolves control the four elements of the Earth. There's only four living at a time. Green eyes control Earth, or the plants and stuff. Blue eyes control water, yellow controls fire, and grey controls air.  Troy has blue eyes! He has white fur!  He's the one that controls the water! Oh, thank the Moon Goddess for me please!  

Everyone around us started applauding.  I felt the corners of my mouth turn up. I tried to lift myself into the air with my power of air. The only problem was, I couldn't. I tried harder and harder, but I couldn't. I noticed Troy looked as if he were concentrating on something. I gasped along with everybody else when the clouds parted and revealed the sun. 

Now you make a light breeze. I frowned. I can't. The clouds started getting grey and blocked the sun. 

Why? I felt like such a failure. Because I- I don't know. I ran to the nurse's office, embarrassed and hurt that I couldn't use my power. 

I had only one destination in mind- the nurse's office. I felt my body light as air and I went into complete darkness for about half a second- then I was halfway across campus. I didn't know how I did it. I noticed I was still running and braced myself for running into the cafeteria's wall ahead. Only I didn't. I felt my feet swerve the other direction and turned left behind the wall. I saw the nurse's office and felt my body go into darkness- then I was inside Mrs. Henley's office.

This expreience made me think of one of those newer cars that stop automatically when the motion sensor senses something in front of them. 

"Oh my Godess. How did you- who are you?" she clenched her heart and started fanning her face, getting up from her chair. We weren't from the same pack; she was someone from a neighboring pack, so I couldn't talk to her through mind link. I pointed to a picture I drew her once of me and her together. The name was on the bottom.

"Stacy Keller. You almost gave me a heart attack. You know, for being your color. Here, put these on." She handed me some clothes that everyone has to give to the school because it could happen to them. It being this.

I put on my white T- shirt and LA Idol faded jeans. I put my pink Vans on and sat on the bed. I sighed and put my head in my hands.

"So, who's the lucky guy?"  Mrs. Henley asked. 

"Troy Vermont, the new guy from the Moonlight Pack." I smiled because of the way his name rolled off of my tongue. 

"Ooooh, one of the Vermont boys. Troy's the one that's due to take over as Alpha soon." She walked over and sat on the bed next to me. "What's wrong? Something's on your mind, I can tell." She said worriedly. 

I sighed. "I can't use my powers of air. I tried so hard to." 

She looked as if she were deep in thought. After about 1 minute, she suggested,"Maybe what you wanted to do with your powers wasn't the only thing you focused on. But it must've been something big, because nothing small would get you out of focus like that." 

I thought for a moment. My eyes started filling up with tears threatening to fall out. "Sam cheated on me with Loran, his true mate, and they both didn't tell me."  I took a deep breath. "Then when I-I told him we're over, he fainted." I finished, now tears were streaming down my face. She comforted me and Troy walked in. 

In his wolf form.

"Now I suppose you know who this is, hmmmm?" She asked, calmer than when she saw me.

I ran to Troy and wrapped my arms around him. He licked my face and I giggled. "I'm sorry about what happened, about me not being able to do anything. I know why, though. It was Sam and Loran that clouded my brain." I whispered seriously.

"Hey, don't be like that. It wasn't your fault. You had a lot on your mind."  He comforted through mind link. I smiled. I just sat there with my arms still around him. Until Mrs. Henley broke the silence.

"Lovebirds. I think I might know someone who can help you with your powers."
