stairs. All motion stopped and Sarah resisted the urge to yell at them and ask why the hell they were looking at her. She did growl a little though, they were starting to tick her off. She stormed into the kitchen and looked through the fridge, she needed something cool in her system before she blew up.
“Hey Sarah have you seen- whoa, whoa, whoa heat central going on here.” Molly said with a small laugh. Thomas entered in behind her and her body instantly reacted to his. It was wrong, she knew, but she couldn’t help it. She had hoped she could just not be too close to any of the men, but in the kitchen there was only a limited amount of space. She bit her lip and looked away from his changing eyes.
“Shoot, sorry Molly, I gotta go.” She said and rushed past Thomas, being careful to not touch him. she had something clutched in her hand and looked down to see it was a celery stalk. Something’s gotta be better than nothing,

she thought to herself as she angrily bit the celery stalk.
“Hey Sarah.” Jared said, joining her in her walk to the backyard.
“Jared, hey, what do you want?” She asked quickly munching her way to the end of the celery stalk.
“Just wanted to see how you’re doing, after last night when you couldn’t sleep.” He said and sped up his pace with her.
“Oh yeah. I’m fine, just darn peachy. My body is going through a stressful time, I was looking for chocolate but ended up with a celery stalk, everybody is looking at me like I’m some kind of frigging science experiment gone wrong and everyone around me is treating like I’m going to explode at any given moment. Speaking of which why are you near me, isn’t your wolf going crazy?” She asked, walking into the forest behind their backyard.
“I, uh, kinda sprayed a ton of Molly’s perfume around my nostril. When I breathe in I smell nothing but that.” Sarah furrowed her brow and stopped walking.
“You’re basically mutilating your nose just to be around me?” She asked, tears springing to her eyes.
“I mean… yeah. We are friends right?” He asked, his black eyes big and hopeful.
“Of course we are, I just didn’t think we were that close. I’m friends with everyone, yes, but you and I. Well you and I are you and I, we haven’t gotten along from day 1. We’re not really that close are we? I mean honestly how close can we possibly-“
“Ok, hush! Jesus Christ, do you ever stop talking?” He asked, exasperatedly, as he leaned against a tree.
“sorry, I’m not normally like this. It’s the heat, it messes with my brain. My wolf normally tells me when I’ve talked too much and he shuts me off, but he goes and hides when I’m like this. He says he can’t take it when all of the men are barking at me like I’m some kind of steak. Steak sounds good, you think Penny would have some? I hope she’d have some, because then I could treat myself-“ she was silenced when he clasped his hand over her mouth.
“Christ woman, just for once. Stop talking. I’m sure she has steak, I’ll make it for you if you just calm down and stop talking.” He whispered into her hair and she shivered. Damn him!

he touched her! She was trying not to be touched, she’d been doing so well. She whimpered and pressed herself closer to him unwillingly, his body heat wrapped around her and made her feel… tingly.
“Please stop touching me.” She whispered which translated, in her terminology, as touch me some more.
“I don’t think you want me to stop touching you.” His voice had grown gruff, showing just how close he was to his wolf. She couldn’t help herself, she ground her bottom against his bulging pants. Where the hell was her wolf when she needed him!?
“You’re being very naughty now, I know that this isn’t you. The old Sarah should come back now, don’t you think.” He asked softly and she nodded vigorously.
“In order for you to do that, I want you take my hand off your mouth and put it where it should be.” He whispered and she shut her eyes. She was going to have to do this, she knew it. She knew he was helping her but she couldn’t help but to curse him in her mind. She grasped his rough hand in her softer one and very slowly pulled it away from her mouth. She breathed in and out slowly and focused solely on that.
“Good, now put it where it belongs.” He cooed softly into her hair, making the strands fly softly in the breeze. She put it by his leg and let go of his hand, she breathed in deeply and ignored the scent of his masculinity. She inhaled the scent of the forest going into the fall season, the river that was a couple miles north of where they stood now. He remained quiet, still behind her but letting her breathe.
“Thanks… for that.” She said after a couple of moments.
“That’s what friends do, Sarah. They help each other when they need it. “ He said softly and turned. She watched, in utter confusion, as he walked deeper into the forest.

Chapter 4

“Sarah you’ve got to eat something.” Carol begged as she pushed a bowl of noodles into her tummy.
“Ok, I will. But it’s got to be cold, you know good and gosh darn well I can’t eat anything hot on heat. My whole body goes wonky.” She said and pushed the hot bowl back towards her friend, just touching the bowl made her body twitch.
“You’re so picky.” She muttered as she slopped down the noodles greedily. Sarah leaned against the marble top counter in the kitchen and ran cold water on her hands. Sammy came in, blushing a violent red, with her hands in her pockets.
“Something wrong Sammy?” Carol asked, her mouth full of noodles.
“Err… nothing. Not really. I think I’m hurt, but I don’t feel any pain, I’m kinda confused.” She said, her cheeks deepening in color.
“What’s wrong Samantha?” Sarah asked, pushing herself up and away from the counter top and over to Sammy. Sammy bit her lip and signaled her to come closer.
“I have blood in my undies, but I didn’t hurt myself.” She whispered then put her head down.
“Jesus Christ Sammy, how old are you?!” Sarah gasped, thinking the girl was 5. She had that face that fooled the eye.
“I’m 9.” She mutters under her breath and Sarah blushes.
“Sorry, you just look like you’re 5, I never really got around to asking you how old you were.” She mumbled and took Sammy’s hand.
“Carol do you think you could take Sammy to go buy the things that she needs?” Sarah asks, giving the child’s hand a reassuring squeeze.
“I’m sure someone in the pack has something-“
“I think she’d be more comfortable if she had supplies of her own, don’t you think?” Sarah said, cutting her off. She glared but put the bowl of noodles down. She took Sammy’s hand and walked away from her.
“Thank you Carrie.” Without looking back Carol flipped her the bird and Sarah smiled as she went to look for some ice cubes to chew.

Her wolf hadn’t spoken to her all day, she was sure something was wrong and she was right. She’d been eating the steak that Jared made for her when Alpha Jeb yelled that rogues were nearby. She’d dropped her steak and immediately shifted, not caring about her clothes. She was one of the packs greatest fighters, something she’d learned from her father. Jared ran alongside her, apparently he was also the best, along with the Alpha males. She smelled them then, the evil in their soul, the hatred in their hearts. The hearts that would be lying in the dirt in a couple of minutes. She ran faster, her wolf wanting to avenge their fathers. They’d already done that, over and over, but this was just in case any of them tried to hurt anyone else she loved. Like Luna or Sammy. Or any kids in general. They came to a clearing where the moon shined down gently, it also happened to be where the rogues waited for them. She growled and made herself slow into a skit on the ground, her nails raking against the dirt and making gaping wholes in the earth. Alpha Jeb stepped forward, inclining his head.
‘Why are you on our land, Rogue?’ he said in wolf language. She stared at one of the wolves, a small one with rough brown hair. Why was he smaller than the others, that was unnatural… Pup!

She growled low in her throat and Jared shot her a warning glance. She silenced but her kept her look on the pup. What kind of rogues carried around children! That was just sick!! The rogues then all, simultaneously, dropped on their back and showed their underbelly. A sign of submission. She growled and took a threatening step forward, it was a trick. Jared growled and stepped in front of her.
‘Back down.’ He said in wolf language and flattened the ears on her head. He was messing with her kill and she didn’t appreciate it. He did the same and growled warningly. She huffed and stepped back, she wasn’t going to fight a pack member over rogues. Alpha Jeb changed back, in all his naked glory, and ordered them all to change. She changed and kept her head high, ignoring the stares from the rogues.

“Take a fucking picture it’ll last longer.” She growled, taking a step forward.
“Sarah, calm down.” Jared growled lowly to her and she huffed. She crossed her arms over her chest and glared at the leader of the rogues. He had caramel skin which gave way to her having fantasies of licking hot caramel off of every inch of his body and light brown hair that curled naturally, he looked at her with more than interest and it made her body heat up with desire.
“Don’t look at me mutt, unless you want your eyes scourged out.” She growled aggressively.
“You need to control your females.” Another rogue male growls and she steps forward several steps before being held back by her tummy.
“You wanna go, mutt? Come here and I’ll beat the hell outta you, show you control.” She muttered as she struggled to get out of Alpha Jeb’s arms.
“Sarah, calm down and go back to the pack house. Now. Jared escort her there, make sure she does nothing rash.” He said as he handed her over to Jared.
“We wish to join your pack.” The leader said and all her fight drained out of her body. His voice was so… beautiful. He was obviously Britain, because that deep voice was no where near American. She drooped in Jared’s arms and watched as the man tilted his head to the side, showing his neck, as a sign of submission.
“Would you mind sharing a room with each other?” Alpha Thomas asked, not yet making a decision.
“We share damn near everything else with each other, what difference is a room?” He asked with humor in his eyes and voice.
“Why do you want to join our pack? You
