Ok so here's another chapter! It will be short but I just want to give you insight to Ethan's life. Enjoy!

Ethan's POV (^_^)

I sigh as I glance out if the window. Training to be alpha was boring. I have been sitting in my dad's office for half an hour while he talks to another alpha and his beta from a nearby pack. It was pretty dull and useless if you ask me. That is until one word grabbed my attention. 'Rouge'.

"There has been an unusual amount of rouges around lately." My dad tells the alpha of the moonlight pack. They are our closest neighbor and friend to our pack, the Red Moon pack.

"They have not trespassed on our territory yet but our borders touch so it's only a matter of time." The moonlight alpha states seriously.

"Do you know what their after?" the moonlight beta questions as he glances at the window.

"No. We are still trying to find what their after. There are no new members or new humans in the area. It started off with just a few but now there are about 15 different scents of rouges. There hasn't been that many in years." My dad says in a troubled voice. I could tell he was worried about the packs safety.

"It sounds like what happened 10 years ago we can't let that happen again. I nearly destroyed both our packs!" The alpha growled as he slammed a fist on my fathers desk.

"I know this! I lost several members from rouge attacks!" my dad says in a tormented voice. I know exactly who he was talking about. Isabelle. I tune them out as I remember Isabelle and the grief the day we heard she died. Her and my father had been friends all their lives. She was like a little sister to my dad. She was so sweet to everyone all she saw was the good in the world. She had beautiful blonde hair and hazel/blue eyes. When I was still a pup not even a year old. She found her mate who happened to be human. My dad says when she found out she was pregnant she was so happy. She wanted a son who could be friends with me and grow up with me but when she had her baby he showed no signs of being a werewolf.

She was sad that he had no wolf because it would be dangerous for him to play with other wolves. Werewolves tend to be strong when they are young and sometimes will loose control of their wolves when rough playing. Because of this danger she decided to move out of the pack house to the edge of town. She had a small happy family but her mate persuaded her not to visit much and when she did not to let her son know of our existence.

When the rouges started showing up my dad became concerned. He pleaded with her to move back in with her mate and son. She finally gave in and planned to move back in but a week before she was supposed to move back a rouge attacked her. They found her dead in the woods behind her house with her 7 year old son crying over her torn and lifeless body. They took him home to his father and gave his father the terrible news about his mate.

Ever since that day neither of them has been the same. James, his father, always has an insane mean look in his eyes and her son, Jayden slowly quit talking until he was completely mute. He had no friends and he was always small especially for a male. He gets bullied a lot but I don't know how to stop it. I feel sorry and sad for him having to live this cruel life. I secretly want to help him and hear his voice again and see him smile. And I love his eyes. They are just like his mothers.

"Ethan!" my father snaps to get my attention.

"Yes dad?"

"Go get Luke, Daniel, Logan, and Ryan and tell them to prepare a scouting party. Go with them and scout all the borders. Tell them of the rouges and report any scent that does not belong here!" He commands. I now my head slightly in respect.

"Yes sir." I reply as I walk out of his office and search for Luke first. He is my best friend and soon to be beta. I find him in the game room playing the xbox.

"Hey man, we got to go scout for rouges the problem is getting worse. Do you know where Daniel and the others are?" I state bluntly.

"Ok and Daniel and his goons are in town being stupid probably." Luke didn't like Daniel very much and he really hated him for picking on people weak like Jayden. And I don't blame him I secretly hate them too.

We turn off the game and run to town which isn't too far away when you can run with wolf speed. We reach town and I instantly see the three of them surrounding a small hunched over figure. They were taking turns punching the figure which I instantly realized was Jayden. I made Luke wait by a store while I quickly walked to the alley.

"Leave the boy alone, we have business to attend to!" I shout to get their attention. Logan immediately dropped his hold on Jayden and let him fall to the pavement. Logan and Daniel follow quickly but I see Daniel purposefully step on Jayden's hand and twist a little. I felt a weird stirring in my wolf at this as I see Jayden let out a silent scream. I see a single tear drop to the pavement before he blinked his eyes clear and looked at me. I could see slight confusion and something else in his eyes before they go back to the deep emotionless pools they are.

I turn around quickly while filling Daniel and the others in on what was going on. As we walk I ponder what that flash of emotion was that I saw a glimpse of. But it was barely there for a second. My wolf was still uneasy and was whimpering slightly at me. I was going to be 18 in a few days so my wolf was getting stronger.

I push the confusing thoughts aside as we reach the woods and strip. I stash my clothes for later and let the shift take over my body. I feel the course fur shifting under my skin creating an annoying itch for half a second before the fur bursts through my skin and my bones snap and reshape sharp teeth push through my gums and my nails change to claws. The change lasts only a few seconds and then I am on all fours shaking my fur out and stretching my limbs.

Only the first shift hurts and lasts for several minutes. Our wolves are just slightly bigger than the average wolf and it's sometimes hard to tell the difference by just looks. We kept our human eye color except they would glow a little more when our wolves take over. Alpha also tend to be slightly bigger than any other wolf. Not much just about a head or half a head taller with a little more muscle.

I glance around to see us all shifted and start to give commands and we take off into the woods in search of rouges but I still can't get my mind off Jayden for some reason.
