FANFIC1997
My name is McKenna Perez, and I am a shapeshifter, a secret I've carried since the cold winter of 2003 when I phased for the very first time at just fourteen years old. My sudden transformation sent me into a terrified tailspin, leading to a year and a half of isolation where no one realized or cared that I was missing, only to drift back to the familiar shores of La Push just as Sam Uley, Jared Cameron, and Paul Lahote were forging their own brotherhood. Now that the secret of my existence is out, the pack has closed ranks around me, their alpha and his brothers- and Leah are relentless in their demand that I submit to their hierarchy and join their ranks. They see a soldier in me, a necessary addition to their cause, but I refuse to be molded into their weapon or confined by their rigid expectations; I survived the wilderness alone, and I have no intention of surrendering my autonomy to a pack that thinks they own my soul simply because we share the same curse.
