Chapter 1

"Do you want some of my fries Bria?" my friend Carly offered.

I felt myself go slightly rigid at the sight of the beautiful golden fries, don't do it, my inner voice warned.

I know, I replied.

"No thanks," I rejected her offer and quickly ate a big tomato from my salad smiling at her.

"You are not going to let me get fat by myself, get some of these" she ordered playfully.

I laughed and shook my head "I'm good thanks," I lied feeling my stomach clench painfully.

She did a big sigh "Fine, I guess I'll have to eat all of these by myself then," she said dramatically.

I smiled at her and watched almost enviously as she plopped fries into her mouth without worry. How I wish I could do the same, I wished so badly I could eat some fries without worrying about calories and how much they would make me gain weight.

But of course, I can't do that because I don't have a fast metabolism like she does, I'm not a full shifter like Carly is.

My dear best friend Carly can eat as much as she wants without gaining one single pound. That's because she is a full shifter, so she has blessed genes that make her not worry about what she eats.

Me on the other hand, I have to worry constantly about what I put in my mouth. Because I'm only a half shifter, sadly!

My mom is a full shifter, and my dad is a human, the result equals me! A half shifter, I don't have a wolf like every other shifter does, but I do have some sort of improved characteristics I guess. I can run faster than most normal humans can, and to me, thats a benefit.

I can heal faster, not as fast as a full shifter would be able to, but still faster than normal people. My vision is improved in the dark as well, my sense of smell is better also. I have all these things that to me don't make any difference to me, what I really want is a wolf, because if I had one then I'd be blessed with the gift of not having to worry about what I eat.

Carly munched on her fries while I watched, "Have you seen the new guy Bria? My God he is smoking!" she exclaimed dreamily.

I rolled my eyes, Carly thought every single guy was hot. "I haven't, how handsome is he?" I asked her.

"He's the angels best!" she declared, "Tall, brown hair, ugh Bria he's gorgeous! I wish he was my mate," she said longingly.

I patted her arm "You'll find your mate soon enough, its just a matter of time" I told her, she was getting stressed out because everyone in the pack seemed to be finding their mates. Lucky for me, I don't have to worry about the whole mate thing, I don't have a wolf, so I assume there isn't someone out there for me.

I don't mind, I'm not worthy to have a mate anyways.

Carly on the other hand, I really do hope her mate finds her soon, she's so beautiful and such a funny girl, my best friend deserves the best!
