This is a truly dark place. Our camp lies in the shadow of this broken world, hidden away from the humans that desperately tried to hunt us. All I ever learnt in the human school was how you shouldn't judge a man on the colour of his skin or by his religion. The quality of a person isn't defined by sex or orientation or physical appearance... humanity had always seemed so warm to me because of that. Like a smouldering hearth or a loving embrace... The only problem is that when you stay in it for too long... you start to get burnt. Before I knew it, the warmth had become an inferno as the humans burnt our settlements and slaughtered our people. They were scared because we were different. They who say not to judge others where now calling us monsters, freaks, dangers, murderers. They were hunting us as if we were dogs. We're people too... we're just different...
That was four years ago... The world is very different from how I remembered it. There is a constant divide between the humans and the supernatural. They stay in their districts, we stay ours. That's how the world works and that's the only way we can prevent a war. Back when this all began, packs were too small to fight back but now that we're all together, the packs have merged and grown. Any conflict now would result in a long and futile war. It may be a hostile and fragile existence but as long as everyone keeps to them selves, it works.
Life within a wolf pack is stable at least. You know who you are and where you lie in the order of things. It is fixed and certain and I guess that's a comfort... but the freedom that the humans have to be who they are and excel beyond their beginnings has always been the light I would reach for... wolf's aren't really ones for acceptance and equality... I'm on the cusp of coming of age and I will one day have to take over my father's position as alpha and carry on living this lie called my life. If anyone found out what i was my dominance would be challenged before I knew it... despite being the next alpha, I'm a runt... so that's a fight I wouldn't win.
One more year until I come of age... This is all going by too quickly...
