The Flower

Chapter 2: Wild

Author's Note
Ok so the picture in Chapter 1 is Adrian's Pack house, just so ya know. And Adrian is Seven years old in this.

Adrian's POV

I bounced through the forest, my mother's eyes burning in my mind. She had turned to the dark side, her once sky blue eyes now a crimson red. I ran, knowing she'd attack me even if I was her pup.

I stumbled into pack territory, unfortunately. Soon I had wolves surrounding me, snarling until their Alpha arrived. The Alpha wan in his human form. His eyes softened as he saw me, picking me up. "It's ok guys, it's just a pup." He  smiled, patting a black wolf with white speckles on the head. "Little pup, this is my Beta, Justin. He'll take you to the pack house, ok? Nod if you want to go." I thought about it, the wolves had stopped snarling all looking at me waiting for a response. I nodded, looking down at the Beta before leaping down onto his back.

I was amazed by the pack house, the Luna came running up to me, with a warm smile. "Awww, you're so cute. Oh! How rude of me. I am the Luna, call me mom, or Julia. My mate is Titan, or as you probably know, Alpha." I was glad for the introduction, I barked slightly, lashing my soft tail back and forth. She picked me up, and carried me inside, while talking to her pack mates. I like this place alot, it's very different from the wild. "What is your name, little wild?" Little wild? Is  that my nickname? I have to shift to tell her, but where? I looked around finding a place, I leapt down, picturing my human form. I soon felt my bones shifting and forming, cracks filling the air.

Cold air hit my skin, making me shiver. Julia had given me some clothing, letting me change. "My name is Adrian, what pack am I at?" I asked, fishing through my mind of all the packs I knew of. Mom's old pack was the Northern Pack. "Moonlight pack, where is your mother? May I ask?" She looked over to me, wonder in her eyes. I felt a stab in my chest remembering my run.

"I hope she's dead. She turned to the dark side and I had to run. I miss her alot, and love her. But if she's dead, I'll be glad she didn't have to deal with the darkness." 

I looked at the weird substance, it wasn't colorful, nor was it leaves. It was very soft, and warm. Not like fur. I shifted quickly into my wolf form, curling in the softness.

  "Adrian? Adrian??" I heard, making my ears perk up. "Are you in wolf form? Oh dear. You don't sleep in a bed like that!" Julia laughed, petting my fur. "Shift and get dressed, I'd like to discuss something with you."

I sat in the Alpha's office, both Luna and Alpha looking at me, one  ready to speak. "Me and Titan had been discussing this, and we came to the conclusion, we'd like to adopt you. If you agree with us."  I looked up at them, wondering. Did I want them to be my new family, I quite like them. "I guess I should start calling you mom and dad?" They both smiled.
