Ghost Pack

Chapter 2

Maggie's POV

   I sat there on the side of the road frozen. I stared at a over grown garden with a huge castle behind it. The castle looked to be ok but everything around it was overgrown. The castle sat in the middle of the forest. I sat there for almost a hour before pulling onto the road and up to the castle.
     I stepped out of the beat up car, and looked at the huge building or buildings. I made a mental note to go to the store tomorrow and grab a mower and trimmers along with other stuff to fix up the yard. I closed the car door and walked up to the huge oak door. I took out my keys and unlocked it, pushing it open. As the door opened a gust of air coated in dust. Yes... The air.. Was coated in dust. I walked in and My jaw dropped at the sight.

It was a mess. I closed an locked the door behind me as I began to wander through the castle. I was shaking with the urge to clean. I walked through the halls, looking into different rooms. The entire place was furnished. There was everything from beds to sheets and blankets, to couches and rugs, to dishes and appliances. Everything was here. All it needed was a good cleaning. I continued to walk through the halls until I came upon a bed room. It had red blankets on a poster bed that had red drapes around it, small red and black stripped couch, a red chair, hand made wooden side tables and a wooden armoire that was broken. "This is my room." I stated. I rushed outside and grabbed the cleaning products and materials and went back to the bedroom. I grabbed the sheets and blankets and everything and went to the washer (I had updated appliances put in while i was traveling to the castle). After k started the washer i went back and started to think of a way to get the armoire out. I decided to wait till tomorrow to move it since there was to much other stuff to do. I grabbed some cleaner and started whipping down all the flat surfaces and i beat out the bed to get the dust off, i then took the vacuum to get the rest off. I also used the vacuum on the couch and chair. I stopped cleaning the room for a moment to open the windows to let some air in and some dust out. I then walked down stairs and changed over the blankets and sheets. I walked back up and vacuumed the carpet floor.
    I looked around at my work and smiled. I was so proud it only took me a hour and a half the get it finished. I then walked into the bathroom with eblow high gloves and went to work. After about a hour i finally finished, sweat dripped off of me. I whipped of my forehead with my sleaves and walked back down to grab my blankets and sheets. I made my bed then looked at the clock. It was just after 9, so i had been here for about 4 hours. Most of it was spent cleaning. I decided it was time to let my wolf out. I went down to my car and grabbed some sweat pants and a hoodie. Changed then walked outside. I went behind a tree to strip (i dont know why no one is out here, force of habit I guess) I quickly shifted. I was a 6 ft tall wolf. I had blood red fur, and electric blue eyes. How did I figure out i was a werewolf?

Flashback

I was 6, I was playing in the woods behind my foster home. The foster parents never noticed if I was home or not so i normally stayed out till all hours of the night. But this night was different. I felt a sudden pain strike through my entire body. I couldnt stop it and for some reason no sound came out of my mouth. I started convulsing and my bones snapped in my ears. Everything hurt. Tears started pouring down my cheeks. I began silently praying that someone would find me and help me. But I knew deep down, that wasnt going to happen. After what felt like forever my body stopped hurting and everything was normal again. I stood up but something felt off. I looked down to see what happened. And I jumped straight into the air. Right before me, I saw paws. Animal paws. I started freaking out and ran. As fast as I could. Trees started flying past me my body moved on its own and I couldn't stop it. Finally i felt myself turn around and head towards my foster home, but before i got there my body started the painful process all over again. And soon I was my normal self, except this time my clothes were gone. I started freaking out again. My 6 year old brain not processing what just happened. I was starting to get up to go back and tell my foster parents when a bright light appeared in front of me. When my eyes adjusted to the light i saw a beautiful woman dressed in white step out. She had her hand held out. I stared at it in confusion. "Grab my hand child and i will help you. Dont be afraid." She said. After about a minute of thinking it over I reached out a shaky hand and grabbed onto hers. She pulled me on to my feet and let go. "Child i am here to explain to you what happened." All i did was nod as she spoke. "You are a special person. You are not human. You are a werewolf, but you must not tell a soul. " she began. "This is a secret that has been held many years. There are others of your kind. Promise me you will keep this secret." She looked at me sternly. Something about her made me want to keep the secret. "I promise" I didnt even know i was going to say it till it came out. With that she waved her hand and my clothes came back. "Next time will be easier but you will need to undress before you shift." She said. She told me everything I needed to know. She told me about packs and mates and everything. She told me her name was moon goddess and that she protects all werewolfs. Once she was finished she walked back into the light and left. I went back to my foster home and never said a word. I learned to control my senses and how to behave.

Flashback over

   I grabbed my clothes in my mouth and let my wolf wander off. "Eva lets scope out the grounds and see whats around. But dont go off our land." I told her "alright lets have some fun with it" she said back and took off. My wolfs name is Eva. She is a little angel but also a perv. She will tell you when a guy is hot but she doesnt want to do anything. I am 18 and a virgin. And we love it. We looked around and searched every inch of our land. We found a few old shakes and a entrance to some cells underground. I shifted back and put my clothes on and walked into the dungeon, I guess you could call it that. I smells like rotting flesh, blood and death. Lucky for me there was no body parts or anything in the cells. There was also no blood. All of the cells had a drain at the center of it. Im guessing who ever used the cells last cleaned them out. But they didnt clean it good enough to get the smell out. I continued walking and wound up back at the castle. I was on the right side of it and a few yards down was a entrance to the castle itself.
    I looked at my phone as i entered the castle and saw that it was almost midnight. I finished bringing up my stuff. After i got into my now clean room. I closed the window and decided to take and shower and head to bed. The up coming days were going to be very, very, very long.
