The Break of Night

Meeting

***Terra's Pov***"

"I feel like I've been squashed and shoved into a really tight balloon," I whine, while Amy's looking smugly at the road as she drives.

"You look fine, sexy even. Every boy is going to be drooling all over you. Just promise me that you'll think about the party tonight, please?" she pleads with her oh-so-kind voice as she pulls into the school's parking lot.

Amy, being Amy, made me dress up for my first day back at school. I'm dressed in a black and green, short trimmed dress that ends just above my knees, and to make it even worse, its skin tight at the top along my bust line. I can barely breathe. Amy did my hair in a side braid that wraps around the back of my head and is let loose over my shoulder. The only good thing about my look is my shoes. Black high top converse. My most prized item in my closet.

"Okay, I promise I'll think about going to the club tonight, as long as I get a say in how I dress."

Her whole face lights up with one of her genuine smiles and nods quickly with renewed spirit.

"Hey, I forgot to tell you that my cousin was coming to stay with us from Michigan. He's going to be attending school here, too."

"You mean Marie is taking in a new recruit for her pack or is he your actual cousin?" I ask, getting a bit excited.

"He's my actual cousin, and don't go talking about werewolf stuff so openly like that. It's hard trying to keep this from mum. If she found out you knew about this stuff, you'd probably be killed," a look of horror crossing her face.

"It's ok. I only know about the pack and ranks, nothing else. You only told me about it a month ago. No pressure at all," I say trying to lighten the mood.

"Yeah, ok. Wait! You still haven't told me your secret."

"I'm still debating whether or not to tell you. It's a big secret," It honestly is a big secret. One just doesn't blurt out that their mother was the great Luna of the werewolves. Then again, Amy told me her big secret, why can't I?

"Come on, please?" Amy sticks her face right up to mine.

"Fine, my mother, she was-"

"Look! Jackson's here," she jumps out of the car and pulls me with her.

"Who's Jackson?" I ask worriedly.

"He's my cousin I was talking about."

Amy drags me over to the woods at the back of the school. She takes me in 10 metres and stops.

"Jackson! Come out! I know you're there. I want you to meet my friend Terra," she yells in towards the woods.

Then it hits me. An intoxicating smell of pine mixed with honey and dirt. It over whelms me that much that I nearly fall over from the pressure.

"Jesus. No need to yell. Everyone could have heard all the way over at Texas," a masculine voice calls from behind a tree.

He emerges from behind and ventures over to us. I hold my breath as he walks over. He is drop dead hot! His dark black hair falling just over his beautiful neon blue eyes. He's tall and muscular. I'm just gawking as he approaches.

"Hey, Jackson," Amy says happily which brings me out of my trance.

"Hey, Amy. Who's this?" He gestures over to me.

"This is Terra. She's best friend. It's her birthday today."

"Hey. I'm Terra," I say as I make eye contact and hold my hand out.

"Hey. I'm Jackson," he says as he grabs my hand.

Instantly there are shock waves, which cause me to jerk my hand away and look towards the ground.

"Sorry," I say trying to work out way there was a shock wave when we touched each other's hand.

I look back up and notice his eyes are a dark molten rock colour, which scares me a little bit.

Just as I was about to ask what happened with his eyes, the school bell rang indicating that school had started.

"Shit! I'm going to be late for tutoring Blake. I got to go Amy. See you at English. Bye Jackson," I yell as I run out of the woods. Before I get away from hearing range I hear a deep growl rippling behind me. Thinking it's my imagination, I run all the way into the pre-school building to tutor one of the kids named Blake.

OK I know I'm late with the update and all. I'm really sorry. It's just hard to find ideas for the next chapters and all that. Now here is a little info about the story so far if you got confused:

Amy doesn't know that her mother, Marie, knows about Terra being an offspring of the Great Luna and neither does she. Terra knows about werewolves. Jackson and Terra are mates but Terra doesn't know about what a mate is. Blake is a little kid who is taught by Terra.

OK that's all I could think of that you could get confused with. The next chapter will be in Jackson's POV and will be up in 2 day.

K, Ciao
