New beginnings

Blood Moon Manor

wow thats a little drastic, guess they dont like visitors.

There is a huge iron gate with a small speaker and a button. I press the button and a voice comes through.

"Hello, this is the blood moon manor what can I do for you."

"H..hello my name is ameila summers, I've been sent here to see my oma." I say.

The large iron gate unlocks and opens, I slowly drive in. It's a long drive up the gravel road. On either side is trees so high I cant even see the sky they cover the road like a canopy.

In the distance I can see a house but it's no ordinary house its huge probably the biggest house I've ever seen in my life.

I drive towards the house and In to the circle drive way. I can see some people coming out to meet me.

"Ok big breaths now ameila everything will be ok" I say to myself.

I hop out of the car and do a quick stretch, then I walk to the front of my car.

"Hello ameila i am Charles the butler may i take your bags to your room?"

"Hello Charles, sure if it's no trouble." I reply

"Oh my dear it's no trouble at all"
he says, then picks up my bags and hurries away.

I look up at this huge home, it's so beautiful. It's a log style mansion, it has a wrap around deck all made from logs and branches. When you walk through the the front door it smells of pine through out the house. Each room is decorated perfectly and has hand carved railings through out the house. Mounts of elk and deer hang on the walls.

I am waiting in the front room when A young girl walks into the room.

"Hi ameila!! My name is Jesse I'm your cousin! I'm so glad your hear!! Finally someone who I can talk to about what's going on in the girl wolf world!!" She exclaims

"Hi Jesse it's nice to meet you too. What do you mean the girl wolf world?" I ask

Jesse is 17 years old. She has bleach blond hair and green eyes. She is about my height and slim, also has a very bubbly personality.

"Jesse that's enough bugging our guest, she has been through enough problems she doesn't need to deal with anymore stress, now head to town with Chris and damon for more supplies." Oma explained.

"Yes oma right away!" Jesse said and was out the door.

Oma had long grey hair and dark brown eyes. Even tho she was an older lady she had a jump in her step. She was high energy.

"Sorry sweetie she can be a little over bearing at times, her wolf is just excited your hear."

"Her wolf?" I asked

" oh no your father never told you did he? She asked.

"No I guess he never had the chance, after mom died he turned to alcohol, then we had the break in and he got shot." I said.

" oh my goodnes, sweetie where you there? She asked.

I lowered my head in shame.

" I hid in my bathroom when I heard the commotion, I feel like this is all my fault!" I cried.

"No no sweetie this isnt your fault, it's our past it always come after us. It's our family curse" she said with a smile.

I look around the huge house nervously.

"Nothing to worry about sweetie, your safe here. Now follow me you must be exhausted. We will get you settled in you room and tomorrow we will talk about everything." Oma explained.

I follow oma up the huge wood staircase to the second floor, we go down the hallway to the door at the end of the hallway.

"This was your mothers room. All her things that she left are still here they are yours now. If your hungry help yourself to anything in the kitchen dear. You also have your own bathroom. Charles put your things on your bed. See you in the morning sweetie."

Oma gave me a kiss on my forehead and left the room closing the door behind her.

I sit on my bed looking around the room. I see all the photos of my mom and her family, people who I have never even meet.

How come she never told me about them? Why did she keep our life a secret? I'm still so confused I still haven't had time to even process what had happend the last two days.

I hopped in the shower trying to clear my mind, once done I dry off and lay in bed, that's when it hit me all the emotions and feelings of everything that has happened hit me like a train. My dad being shot protecting me, who are these people who are after me, learning of this new family I never knew I had. I laid there whimpering so no one would hear me cry, I cried and cried till I finally drifted off to sleep...
