Most people call me Trina. My full name however is Katerina Rose Valintine. I am seventeen and kind of a lone wolf. That is what drove my parents up the wall. But I have a very good reason for being that way. You see I have a tail and cat ears with silver hair and black eyes. I never told anyone my secret not even my closest freinds.I always hid my ears under my hair and took them out whenever I could. I also forgot to mention that I have fangs. Not like vampire fangs, they are just longer than my other teeth. I like it but my parents don't. Oh yeah back to the point, the fight. My parents knew about it and still said that I should hang out with people but I refused every time. I hate being in big crowds. They make me paranoid. I was telling them about the school day and told them about me not going to a party that I was invited to and they got mad. Then I started to yell back and my ears came up.They knew what happens when I get mad and they still kept yelling at me. I was getting really aggravated and mad and highly upset. My vision was starting to fade but I still could feel what I was doing. They kept going at me and my vision was fading fast. I heard myself growl and the last thing I heard was my mother scream. When I came to, I say what I had done. My mother and father were just lying on the floor. I know what I had done and I didn't know what to do about it. I did the only thing I could do. I screamed. I screamed for my mother and father. I screamed for myself. And I screamed for the one thing that had kept me safe for as long as I could remember. My family. The love of a mother and a father who loved me unconditionally. I had a great life and a family who had loved me and I had destroyed it. In just a few hours I had gone from having parents who loved me and wanted the best for me to having no one and being completely alone. As soon as the neighbors came over and saw what happened, the girl who was about my age came over to me and held on to me while I cried. When I was done, I thanked them for their kindness and left. I took the car that my parents had bought me which happened to be a 2008 Mustang. I know that probably wasn't the smartest or best thing to do but I just had to get out of there. I know that in the long run I will be okay but at that moment I knew that I had to be alone. I ran and ran until I had to stop to get gas. I was at this really cute little gas station that was also a restaurant of sorts. This nice lady came up to me and asked me what I wanted. I looked up at her and she gasped. "Are you a.....Never mind. Mind if I sit here with you? My feet are killing me and I am going to take my break." I looked at her and nodded my head. "Great! My name is Neara. What's yours dear?" I looked at her eyes, which were violet, and looked down again. "My name is Katerina but you can call me Trina. At least that was what my family called me." I said as was trying to fight back tears. I think she saw that I was about ready to cry and she quickly moved over to my side of the booth and gave me a hug. "It's alright to cry sweetheart. You can tell me anything and it will be just between you and me. In fact wait here just a minute and we can go to my place. We can talk privately there." She got up and talked to a guy who was behind the counter and he smiled and nodded his head. She came back over to me and said,"Ok now that that is taken care of do you need a ride or do you have a car of your own?" I had to smile. "I have a car. I'll fallow you." She smiled back at me and ran out to her car which was a 1976 Camaro. I had to stare at it. It was very well kept. I could tell that she loved her car as much as I loved mine. I got into my car and fallowed her home. Her house was even more amazing than her car. It was an old Victorian style house that had at least four floor not including the attic or basement. I looked at her. "This is your house?" I said. "Yeah well I share it. My sister's whole family lives here part of the year the other part is going around the world." I started to shrink in on my self when she said that her whole family lived here. "Are they here... now?" I whisphered to her. She turned back to look at me and grinned. "Aww hunny no they won't be back for about a week yet. You're safe here!" I grinned at her and closed the door. As soon as I did I felt a rush of power. "WHAT THE FUDGE WAS THAT?" She laughed out loud and said, "That my dear is a force field spell that seemed to have just brushed off of you like rain of a ducks butt. Which means that you either have no idea what you are and how powerful you are or you are no danger to me or my family or both. I'm betting its both." I looked at her like she was crazy and to me she was. I had no idea what the hell she was talking about and it sounded like she was talking crazy shit that I wasn't ready for. But the comment about not knowing what I am and how powerful I am had me pausing in my steps. "What do you mean I don't know what I am? I am a freak of nature and that is it...." I said with my head down and tears welling in my eyes. I heard her footsteps approaching me and slouched my shoulders in afraid to be hit like my father used to do when my ears would pop out when I would start to get angry. She gently puts her hands on my shoulders and squeezes. "Sugar you are no more of a freak than me or my family. We are apart of a community that the world doesn't get to see and its the supernatural community." She puts her hand against my chin and softly makes me look at her. Thats when I see that she too had a tail and ears and fangs just like me but hers are a bright red. Her eyes are still violet thankfully and her voice is still the same but seeing someone like me makes me lose my shit and i jump forward and throw my arms around her crying into her shoulder. She wraps her arms around me instantly and rubs my back soothing me. She just let me cry until I couldn't cry anymore. "I dont understand. You looked like a normal person at the dinner. How did you hide your ears and tail?" She pulled back a little bit."Didn't your alpha or parents teach you how to go full human looking? Or any of the magicks we possess?" I shook my head. "No. I was adopted and I am guessing that they where fully human now." My brain is in a state of confusion right now. How could they adopt me when they where humans? How did they even adopt me? "Well hun I dont know how you came to be adopted by humans but there are some tests we can do to see what pack you where born from and maybe we can even figure out who your birth parents are. I am not making any promises there but for that we will have to wait until the rest of my family is here. Right now its just me and my mate." "Who happens to be very confused as to why a young rogue wolf was able to enter our territory in the first place." I yelped and jumped turning around and falling on my butt in the process. My ears where down and my tail was fluffed out in fear. "JACK!! How could you scare the poor girl like that?! She has been through enough already and needs shelter!" She was infront of me yelling at the man defending me in barely a second. I could feel my vision starting to fade but it was more from the panic racing through me. "Neara... I... " Then the world went black.
