A Werewolf's Hidden Life

Chapter Two

It felt like the 45 minutes turned into 45 seconds. I shook my head then grabbed my stuff and slid it into my bag then slid my bag onto my shoulder then flicked Kate's forehead "Wake the fuck up you deep ass sleeper" I mumbled to her, she just glared at me then got up and shoved me away playfully. I smiled then walked out to the hall way then down stairs to the parking lot. I basically ran to my truck and hopped in. I put my keys in the ignition, hearing the truck rumble to life. I slid my window down then put it in drive then began to take the long way home, like everyday.

Once I got home I parked the truck then got out, grabbing my bag as I did. "Emily!" I heard my name being yelled from inside the house. I groaned as I walked up to the door, quickly getting hugged from my brother. I knew something was up. "The fuck did you do now, Alex?" I looked up at Alex, who had a cheeky smile attatched to his face. I let out a sigh then set my bag down and set my forehead on his chest. He frowned then embraced me by wrapping his arms around me tighter and playing with my hair, like he always did when he knew something was wrong. He knew it calmed me so much. "Whats wrong Em?" He mumbled and I just shrugged. After a while I pulled away from him then looked down at the ground as I yawned. I was hungry and tired, I could tell. "I need weed, food, and a nap" I mumbled then walked past my brother and into the kitchen, grabbing a box of Zebra Cakes, two Mountain Dews and my joint I kept hidden from fugly so he wouldn't smoke it. I walked to my room then shut my door and flopped on my bed. I grabbed my lighter and lit the burnt end of the bud- filled wrap.

I inhaled a good amount, let it set in my mouth for a moment then inhaled again before finally blowing the smoke out. I smiled then hit the joint a few more times before putting it out. Then decided to set it on my clutter filled desk. I opened the box of Zebra Cakes then opened one of the packages and grabbed one of the cakes. I bit into it then giggled, I loved Zebra Cakes. I always had them as a kid and even though I'm nearly 18 I still buy a shit tone and eat a box in one setting. I never really gained a lot of weight so that's a good thing.

After I ate two packs of the Zebra Cakes I ended up passing out, as I planned. Though at some point my cats, Precious and Kicks came into my room and laid down with me (how Ironic for a wolf to like cats, I know). I woke up to kicks rubbing his face on mine and purring, very loudly. I groaned then looked at him, since I was laying on my side in the fetal position like I always do and gave him a small, tired smile. I yawned then looked at then time. I groaned again, seeing it was only 4:30. But I got home at 2:30 so I should be well rested. Wrong.

I sighed then looked at Precious who was passed out on the end of my bed by my feet. I chuckled then kissed Kicks head before I sat up, my nose welcoming a yummy scent to my body. It was early for dinner so I knew Alex's roommate had to be cooking, or it was his girlfriend. I didn't wanna get up to go look. But I also wanted whatever was cooking out there so, I forced myself to get up and go out there. I opened my door and Kicks came running. I knew he could smell the food as well. The little jerk could smell everything, and he wanted it. I chuckled softly then walked to the kitchen, kicks following close behind like he always did. I looked around the corner, seeing Alex cooking. I raised an eyebrow at him as I walked up to him, seeing he was cooking Chicken and Pasta. I looked up at him with a confused look and he just smiled and patted my head. I glared at him then took a couple steps to the fridge, opening it and grabbing a Gatorade. I took a sip of the cold liquid then walked over to the table and sat down, watching him cook "Where's Kat? Normally she cooks." I spoke softly, still not awake from my nap. "She's at work stupid. She had to work late so I figured i'd make dinner for once since all I do is sit around on my ass" I scoffed and laughed quietly, nodding to him "That's true. But so does dick face. At least your working. You should really kick him out Alex. He doesn't do shit except sleep, eat everything in the house, and play fucking video games all day long" I sighed softly as Alex just rolled his eyes and shook his head "I know Em I know. But you know me, I am too light hearted, like you." I opened my mouth to speak but he interrupted me "And don't you dare say your not light hearted. I've known you since they day you where born dumb fuck. You always cared about everyone and everything on this planet. That's why- that's why I took care of you. I didn't want that to spoil because mom and dad" I sighed heavily as I looked down at the floor. I gently swung my legs back and forth, a still silence fell between me and my brother.

I cleared my throat before looking up at Alex, who was grabbing plates for the both of us. I slowly got off the kitchen chair and walked up to him and took a plate. I grabbed the spoon and piled some of the finished pasta onto my plate then grabbed the bag of shredded Mozzerella from the fridge because I like cheese on everything...and I mean everything. I was basically addicted to cheese, like someone would be addicted to drugs or something. I had to have it all the time. I put some parsley, salt, and pepper on it then sat down at the table and began eating. For Alex making food, it was good. It wasn't five star chef good but its home cooked good. I smiled as I ate. He knew this was my favorite pasta, if I was allowed I could eat this all the time- well besides Mac n Cheese. Alex chuckled softly at me as I basically sucked the entire bowl into my mouth. I rolled my eyes at him and got up to get more once I finished the first bowl and ate this one alot slower. "there's gonna be a full moon tonight Emily.." I looked up at Alex, who was giving me a serious, concerned look. I nodded slowly to him "I know what to do Alex. I've done this a million times and so have you. I'll be fine." I looked down at my food, knowing I had to stop eating cause I would be eating tonight. I sighed and set my bowl of pasta on the kitchen counter then I looked over at Alex and gulped "Make sure Dick brain stays in his room. He doesn't need to see me...naked" Alex nodded to me and I nodded back. As you can probably tell by now, im a werewolf And I have to do annual hunts to keep my hunger down for flesh. If I didnt do these hunts...lets just say some people would be missing and this town would be a wreck. Unlike my brother, I can't handle my hunger that well, especially when im starving, I go rogue. I've seen it happen with my father. God that bastard kill all of those people. The children. He should've known better to do that. But of course he's better now- but that's not the point. I growled under my breath as I came back to reality. I looked at my brother as my eyes turned black. Thats what they did when I was pissed. Like super pissed. Alex looked at me and shook his head "Calm down Em" he mumbled to me and I just glared at him and walked to my room and shut the door.
