worry about that, I was the one who attacked him when I noticed that you were following me I took off and started to follow you. I saw the hunter so I went behind him and attacked him, when I looked up you were gone. So I followed your scent and met you here.” He said. I looked up at him in surprise. “You knew that I was following you,” I said. “Yes after all I have had practice being a werewolf longer than you have and also you don’t have that much skill at stalking prey yet.” He said. “Can you teach me all the secrets of being a werewolf dad,” I said. “Yes but I have some things to settle… You can come if you want,” He said. “Sure, where you headed,” I said. “Oh you will see when we get there,” He said.

So then we took off to an unknown place that I didn’t know. The first thing that hinted me off that there was someone or somebody near was the scent I could smell it everywhere. “We are just passing a border line so you will be able to pick up a strong scent,” He said. “Okay I got it, is it that easy to smell even for me,” I said. “Yes it will be,” He said. So we kept on moving when we finally arrived I stuck to my dad as close as I could. There was a ridge with two wolves on it and then a plain with about I’d say seven maybe eight wolves. “Luna this is what we call the den” My dad said. A wolf on the ridge the bigger of the two saw us and called us over. “Lucius come over here,” Said the wolf. He was a bit taller than my dad with brown fur and a scratch on his cheek. We walked over when we were on the ridge I noticed that everybody was looking at us specifically me but one pair of eyes stuck out more than the rest. They were grayish green eyes and they stared at me with a bit of curiosity. I stuck my head out a little higher.

“Lucius what brings you here and who is this right next to you?” He said. “Marcus this is my daughter Luna,” My dad said. “Your daughter! But you said it wouldn’t happen until later on,” Marcus said. I turned my head and saw the same shine of light that I saw in the forest. I got up from sitting down and walked down the ridge, past every wolf in the den. I could tell all the eyes were on me, I could hear my dad calling my name behind me. “Luna… Luna…Luna,” He said. But I kept walking mesmerized by the light. As I got into the woods I would see the light then it would disappear, when I got to the light a second time. I saw the man with the gun he saw me and raised his gun; I growled and crouched ready to pounce on him. He fired at me but missed I pounced knocking the gun out of his hands, I saw him run to the gun but I beat him to it I pounced again biting onto his arm I heard him yell in pain. As soon as I felt my paws hit the ground I yanked at his arm and he flew. He fell right next to his gun he grabbed it and shot I felt a hot pain in my front right leg I yelped. Then I heard leaves being tasseled by running feet I turned around to see a wolf I couldn’t see clearly who it was but he was running straight at the man. The wolf pounces and knocks the gun out of the man’s hands lands softly on all fours, then pounces again knocking the man down growls in the man’s face then grabs ahold of his neck and rips it out. The wolf walks towards me. “Are you alright,” “I nodded, but by nodding my head all the blood drained from my head I felt a pulse then I felt the ground come rushing towards me.

The wolf grabbed me and threw me over his shoulder. As soon as he stepped foot in the den my dad comes running towards us. “What happened,” He said. He nodded and started to explain what happened to my dad. My dad took me and put me into a cave under the ridge where a she wolf tended to my wounds while I was still asleep, she told my dad that it was just a graze. He asked her why I passed out and she explained that it was just shock.

The next day I woke and found my dad lying down beside me still in his wolf state I got up and walked out of the cave. I looked around and saw the wolf that saved me yesterday I walked over to him and he stood up. “Hey sorry for not thanking you the other day,” “It’s alright after all you did pass out,” I looked down in embarrassment. “Yah, anyways thank you for saving me last night I am still new too all this,” I said. “You’re welcome,” “By the way my name is Luna,” “Jonah,” He said then I heard my dad call me “Well it was nice meeting you,” I started to walk off but turned around and said “I hope to see you again,” He smiled and I walked off with my dad and took a glance back at Jonah saw that he was still looking at me, and turned around and walked into the woods and home.

Once we were out of the forest and changed back into our human forms, my dad started to explain what the den was for and what we do there. “The den is for meetings so basically there is a council for wolves, it’s like when you hang out with friends or have a meeting for a school curriculum,” “Okay” I said. Deep inside my head I was wondering when I could see Jonah again. Would I have to wait until a meeting or must I think of something else just to see him. “There is a system to us just like the president, vice president, and then there is the population. There is the alphas aka the president, Beta aka vice president, and then there is the omegas the population.” He explained. “So who is who?” I asked. “We are the omegas, Markus is the alpha and his son Jonah is the beta.” He said. “Oh, okay” I said contemplating what I just learned while I was pondering I didn’t even notice that we pulled up to the house I walked up to my room changed and went to bed as soon as my head hit the pillow I was out cold.

We ran through the forest not a care in the world heading for the den. As soon as we got there Marcus called to us we took our spot on the ridge and the meeting began. “We have a problem on our hands…Jonah has come back to Vordona,” My dad said. As soon as my dad mentioned the name Jonah there where whispers heard all around the den. “How do you know that Jonah is back have you seen him,” Marcus said. “No but Luna has, he is in the same school as her,” I nodded in agreement to my dad’s words. “It is true I have seen him, and I think he pulled some strings to be in every one of my classes,” I said. “Yes, well we are going to have to wait and see what Jonah wants until then let’s keep it on a down low until we figure out what else to do,” Marcus said. We all agreed and the meeting was finished. After me and my dad said our good byes we took off and ran into the forest, it always helps me clear off some steam when I run.

“Oof!” I said as something ran into me and knocked me off my feet. I got on my feet faced the intruder and gave a low growl baring my teeth. But it was gone nowhere to be seen. I stick my nose to the grown trying to catch a scent and caught one right away it was really strong you can smell cologne, I swear I have smelt it somewhere before but I cannot put my mind on it. I follow the scent until I lose it. When I lift my face from the trail after following it, I notice that I am in the den and that there is someone on the ridge looking up at the sky. I approach slowly then I hear a howl I know it is my dad trying to figure out where I was but I do not answer back. I got about three feet the wolf when he said. “Don’t come any closer,” I didn’t even think he saw me.

I sighed “And to think that I was improving on my stalking skills.” He didn’t answer me but stared up at the sky taking in the view. I looked up to see what he was looking at but it was a normal moonlit night. “It wasn’t your stalking skills but your scent, next time do it down wind,” he looked at me. I gasped he had the most gorgeous eyes; they were a very dark royal blue with the outside a light blue they were a sight to see. “May I ask, who you are,” I said. He looked at me and stared, “You can just call me Adam.” “Hmmm Adam ok well hi Adam my name is Luna,” He looked at me and gasped “Your Luna, you’re the she wolf every bodies talking about” He said. “I guess, I don’t really know what you’re talking about,” I shrugged then I heard my dad howl again this time longer probably getting worried. “Well I guess I better go, nice to meet you Adam I hope to see you again,” He nodded at me.

I took off running toward where I heard my dad howl. I stopped at the edge where the trees start growing and looked back at Adam I smiled and howled telling my dad I’m going turned around and ran into the woods. I couldn’t stop thinking about Adam and what a mystery he was and what he said why was everybody talking about me I’m not that important.

I found my dad and he came running toward me asking me where I was and what I was doing while checking me over for any wounds. “I’m fine dad I just got side tracked in my thinking, you know how I am and what running does to me,” I said. “Yah your right, you ready to go home it’s about to be light hunters will be out,” “Okay, let’s go” we took off as fast as we could racing each other to the car like we always do he always wins he is the fastest one in the pack. I got to the car before my dad for the first time in my life and in the millennium that the pack has been alive. I was so ecstatic that I even called my dad old which led to a round of rolling in the dirt with him. It was fun and once we got into the car in human form we were laughing our butts off and couldn’t stop talking about how I won well I couldn’t stop talking about it. Once we got to the house I went to my room and passed out on my comfortable bed lucky me it was the weekend and I didn’t have to wake up early or didn’t have to see Luke.

When I woke up it was three o’clock in the afternoon I can’t believe I slept for so long I
