Hannah: "What?" Cleo asked, looking confused."What do you mean you can't shift?" She asked again as she snatched the notepad from my grasp, taking in the words like she couldn't understand.They were looking at me like I had grown an extra head."Aren't you like . . . . older than fifteen or . . . something?" Riley rounded the kitchen counter cautiously as he asked.I grabbed the notepad from Cleo's hand and scribbled down, "I only just turned eighteen." I skipped the part where I had already found my mate and the whole story down as it wasn't really important.A person is to turn at the age of fifteen, when mine came, nothing really happened, it just . . . .passed.They all stared in silence, before Riley cleared his throat to dismiss them."Well, it's really not that strange, some even take longer before they turn, maybe that's your case as well?" He asked, not really expecting an answer.I noticed the look on Tyrell's face, it was strange seeing a confused look on his face, like
Hannah: I woke up the next morning feeling a bit groggy. I walked out of my room and the house was a little too quiet and into the hallway that led to the bathroom, it was full dark out, most people haven't woken up yet.I've always woken up early, Alpha's orders. I was to carry out the chores in the pack house and be able to finish them each day, so I had to start early.I remembered I wasn't in my former pack and there was nothing for me to do. I walked to the bathroom which looked surprisingly furnished to fit a woman's taste. Taking out a new toothbrush, I couldn't help but wonder if Tyrell onced lived with a woman. Erasing that thought, I began to brush my teeth.Looking at myself in the mirror, my appearance wasn't that good looking, although that was what others had said at my former pack, and I only went along with it, I mean if I was pretty, I don't think they'll treat me so shitty.I was done brushing, I took off the hoodie and pants I wore to sleep and placed them neat
Hannah: The man who had spoken, which I presumed to be the Alpha, had frozen in place for some reason when he looked at me.I noticed a lost look in his eyes before I casted my gaze downwards so as to not disrespect him.He cleared his throat before he spoke again. "A very vibrant color you have chosen for your hair, any particular reason?"I only shook my head as I had not brought with me, my notepad and pen."Hm, yes, I heard you cannot make use of your voice, a shame really." He sighed. "You are from the Ravens fall pack, are you not?" He asked loudly now.I could feel the same pressure I felt earlier, weighing me down, forcing me to speak. I tried but I could only nod my head to answer his question. Cleo was wrong, they were all the same. Exacting fear into their subjects, showing their dominance.My heart was racing now, was he going to kill me for being from another pack?There was a soft knock at the door."What is it?" The alpha called out, sounding a tad bit irritated
Hannah: "Like I said before, I do not have time to introduce you personally to the pack, it's a good thing, Miss Carter is here, she can help you with what you need." Alpha Daniel said.He turned towards Cleo. "You're helping her get situated in one of the rooms in the pack house, a few clothes will be nice as well." And with that, he also was off, leaving just me and Cleo in the forest."That was fast, normally it'll take a longer, more boring speech." She pondered for a bit. "Count yourself lucky, you don't have to go through all that."I didn't know what to think about it, as this was my first ever initiation. But I was not expecting the blood part a bit, I wish someone would have told me what to expect though."Shall we go over to the pack house now?" She asked, as we were the only ones in the forest circle, there was no point in us being here any longer.I nodded, we both made our way to her car and began our drive back to the pack house.While on the drive, Cleo started a
Hannah: "Tyrell!" A look of disbelief was written across her face. "What are you doing here?" She asked, as she took a suspicious glance between the both of us.Tyrell ignored her question, before asking again, "What are you doing here?" This time, there was a bit of pressure that hung in the air.Arya also felt the same pressure as I noticed she gnashed her teeth before she answered."I . . . . was . . . . only—" she stammered, losing her touch of words when under a stronger opposition. "I was only here to greet the new members. To welcome them into our pack, that's all." She declared, taking a step back."I'm going to pretend I didn't hear what you said earlier, since you have seen her, you can take your leave." His voice was cool and calm, even though his facial expression was still one of irritation, and a bit of hurt? I don't know."Yes beta." I doubt she could say anything other than that, the pressure was a bit much, I wasn't faring much better myself.She took another st
Hannah: I felt my whole life flash before my eyes, it wasn't really a long one, it was full of pain and suffering. I have always been afraid to die even without having future prospects for myself being alive.Cleo was a bit further away from me, I couldn't see how she was faring, then again, I didn't have time, I was about to be snapped to death.This wasn't how I imagined myself to die.The wolf on top of me raised its gigantic head ready to dive in. I couldn't even scream for my pathetic life.My breathing ragged, my hair in a mess, the tears running freely down the side of my face. Its head began a fast descent towards mine, I couldn't help but turn towards the side and wait for its impact, closing my eyes real tight.I heard a loud growl, and then the weight on me eased.I thought; "is this what death is like, it's actually not that bad."I realized I wasn't actually dead, I slowly cracked my eyes open, thanking the moon goddess for letting me live once again.My praises wer
Hannah: A WEEK LATER It's been a week since I've been initiated into the crows hill pack, I've not been given any basic chore or duty, so I've been spending my time roaming the lands, helping out where and when I can, until I found the pack library.It became my sanctuary.I never had the opportunity to use the library back at my old pack, I was always busy with my chores or getting beat up.Now I had the library to myself. Usually I'd pick a book from the library and then bring it back here as sometimes there was quite the number of people in there.I was laying in my bed with yet another book in hand, 'Beast Of Vengeance'.It was a really nice book, interesting, with a lot of twists and turns. It talked about how rage of revenge consumed a man after he had lost everything, after he succumbed to the darkness, it felt like he had lost himself in it as well. It was a tragic ending.I sighed as I placed the book on the bed, what does it profit one to tak
Hannah: I was on my way to help with cleaning as one of the kitchen heads had commanded. When I got there, I got a few stares of disapproval, like they didn't want me there.It's not like I wanted to be looked at like that, but I was given a command, a direct order, I was not given the permission to disobey orders.I was cleaning the table with a rag, there were whispers around me, casted looks of disdain.You'd think I'd have gotten used to it since I've faced it for most of my life, but it always gets to me.I tried to work faster so as to get out of this suffocating room.I moved to clean the rest of the tables when my eyes landed on someone's shoes. When I looked up, the person was staring down at me with a look of disgust. I did not know this person, she had really long brown hair. I had no idea why she was giving me this look, it's not like I've done anything to her.There was another girl beside her with the exact same look, she packed her brunette hair into a ponytail.
