I hate being alone...but I'm afraid to get too close.

Chapter 2 The more you gain, comes more pain

Violets pov 

"Where is it that we could possibly go without the police or the government, hell even Stephenie coming for us?" Vixen growled desperately. "What about that abandoned warehouse over there?" Wolf said though it hinted more of an question. That would be great. Hopefully no ones home. Once we were inside we began scouting I got third floor.

I heard scurrying and tried to convince myself that it was some rats, but the sound was too loud to be rats feet. The hairs on the back my neck rose up and I ducked, sweeping out my leg out knocking the person off their feet. I jumped into an fight stance. I saw an girl, roughly 17 or 18 not too much younger than me. I sniffed her. Hybrid.

I could feel the fear and anxiety rolling off her in waves. "Calm down, I'm like you," I said then flashed her my biggest smile. Her face went slack with shock. " I-I thought we were the only ones left."the girl said.  She had an slight tan, light brown hair, silver/grey eyes. She wore black skinny jeans and a ratty dark blue hodie. "What's your name?" I asked. "Artemis-Artemis Solace." She replied in a soft voice. I held out my hand. She took it. "Where are the others that you mentioned ?" "In the basment. We thought you were the feds" Artemis said, voice alittle stronger. "How many?" I asked. "8."

I didn't hold back. I howled in glee.

Wolf pov

I circle my way back down to the first floor. I ran into Vixen. "Have you seen Violet?" I asked. She shook her head. An howl interrupted all on-coming thoughts. "Violet." Vixen breathed out in worry. "Wait," I said. Vixen tilted her head. "That howl sounds almost..." "Happy." I finished. I heard feet slapping against the concrete floor. "They're alive! They're alive!" Violet cried happily. An light brown haired girl followed her.  "Who?"Vixen asked. "The female hybrids." The light brown haired girl said. "Where are they?" I asked overwhelmed with curiosity. "They're in the basement follow me." The light brown haired girl said again.

When we finally made it to the basement, I thought it would be more of a... basement... Instead , it was filled with the lively colors of black, purple, silver, and white. I saw netscreens, chairs, couches, low tables scattered around the room. I shouldn't be seeing this. I- N O . I n e e d  to see this. Maybe they can take the others instead Violet and Vixen. (I don't really care for her, I just don't Violet hurting again.) But the queen knows she alive... 

Ugh. This is going to be harder than I thought.

"And this is wolf...An male hybrid" Vixen said slowly, snapping me out of my thoughts. The group looked at me. I managed an weak " Hi," before they exploded with questions.

'Are you an soldier?' 'Are you with Queen Stephenie?' 'Are there more of you? If so, how many?' 'How did you come to earth?' 'Are you even lunar?' 'What's your real name, Wolf can't be it.' 'Were you ever an alpha?' 

The last question threw me off, because I am a Alpha. Wait, can they  s m e l l  that on me?!

"ALL RIGHT-EVERYONE QUIET!" Violet barked, suddenly silence engulfed the room. Violet began pacing back and forth like an caged Wolf. Then she took an deep breath, "Take him out," she said pointing an finger at me. Light haired girl again came forward. She looked terrified. I flashed her an smile. That made it worst. She backed up hands in surrender. 

Vixen huffed. 

"I'll do it. Fill me in later," she said , then made some gesture towards Violet and she responded with the same gesture. "Lets go pretty  b o y." Vixen said.
