Chapter 7
Sophia's pov
"Ouch" I winced. My foot hurts from all the walking. Thanks to my human speed.
It was afternoon now. And it's hot. So so hot. It didn't help with fact I'm in the wood. It only made everything worse. I have changed into a black tank top hoping it will help.
My hair is a mess. My face, arm and legs had small cuts.
By now I know the pack must be aware of my run away. Heck they probably are celebrating already. Who cares? I don't.
I decided it will be better if I find a no man land. So that no packs will come hunting for me.
Finally, I took a break. I was exhausted. I was starving. I layed down on the shadow of a big oak tree. It's time to take a rest.
I thought about my my life as I slowly fell into a dreamless sleep, yet peaceful sleep. Peaceful, for the first time in 5 years.
Suddenly, I heard voices. They were saying something. But I can't make out what they were saying. It was as if they were whispering each other.
"Why is she in a wolf pack?" One of them said. The sound was feminine.
"I don't know. She is human. Humans shouldn't be here." Another voice said.
I'm in a wolf pack? As in A PACK?!
Well, shit.
I flinched and jumped away from them in a panic as I felt their hand on my shoulder. I hate it when people touch me.
I looked at the two girl. One of them looked around my age or maybe younger. The other looked about 18 years old.
They both had bright green eyes. The younger one had dark blonde hair while the older girl had soft blonde hair. They had same facial features. I think they are related. Maybe, siblings.
The older girl was wearing a jam coloured jacket over a moss green top with denim jeans which was ripped below the knee. The younger girl wearing a white t-shirt which has dirt all over it with black sweatpants.
"Hey, calm down." The younger girl said. "You're a wolf," I said looking at her.
Great, I just met a werewolf.
Life, goodbye!
Death, here I come!
What else can I say, I'm at the line of death.
"How do you know about our kind?" She asked.
"I was born into Werewolves too. But I didn't get a wolf. It doesn't matter, I'm going die anyway." I said. I was so scared. But I didn't show it.
"You are a werewolf? With no wolf?!" She looked at me shocked.
"What do you mean, you are going to die?" the other girl said.
"I trespassed into your territory" I said. Maybe, they will let me live. It's worth a try. "Look, I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to trespass. I was just passing by. I was tired. I need to get away. Please, don't kill me." I looked at them pleading.
The older girl burst laughing. "Don't laugh! You are scaring the poor girl." The younger one slapped the older one's back firmly.
"I'm sorry about my sister," The younger one said. I just nodded gulping.
Once the laughter died down, the older girl looked at me. "Girl, don't worry! We are not from this pack. Me and my lil sister here are rogues too."
"O-oh. But, but, how? I mean.. How come you are in a pack if you are rogue?" I asked confused.
"Oh honey, this is us. We live like this. We go from one pack to the other. Once, the alpha or beta get suspicious that their are rogues, we go to another pack. Now we are in 'Greenwood pack'." the younger one said.
"Anyways, my name is Alessia Bree Quinn. I'm 17." the older one said. "I'm Esmeralda Andrea Quinn. I'm 14. It's a pleasure to meet you." The younger girl bowed grinning. I let out a laugh.
"I'm Sophia Aurelia Williams. I just turned 15. It's nice to meet you too" I said.
"Williams? Wait. Wait a minute. Are you Williams as in Williams. I mean, the White Ray Pack?!" Alessia asked.
"Yes, I am." I said looking away as I felt a stinging feeling in my chest.
"You are Alpha blooded?! Oh. My. God!" Esmeralda exclaimed. "But, why are you not with your pack? Why are you rogue?" Alessia asked.
"It's a long story." I said looking down in shame. Why aren't they disgusted by me? I told them I don't have a wolf!
"I have all day." Alessia said.
"Me too. If you tell your story, maybe we will tell you ours." Esmeralda said. I noticed a hint of pain in her eyes.
I sighed.
"I'm the youngest in my family. My father is the Alpha. My mother is the Luna. I had 3 siblings. A loving sister and a brother. And then their is my twin brother. He was my best friend. My family was the perfect family. Everyone loved me. Even the whole pack. From what I remember, I was sarcastic, I made witty comments, I was sassy. I loved to make people laugh." I smiled at the memory.
"Everything was perfect. Nothing was out of place. Then there came my 10th birthday. As you also know, every Alpha child will shift for the first time on their 10th birthday. I was excited. The thought of having a wolf was thrilling to me. I was excited. The whole pack was excited."
"I still remember, when it was 11:59, everyone started counting. My voice was the loudest. I was practically yelling in excitement. I was jumping up and down. But there was a nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach. I ignored it. I pushed every negative feelings aside. "when it was 5 seconds left the feeling only increased. And finally when it was 12:00, I closed my eyes. I waited for the pain. I waited for the tearing of my princess dress. I waited for the burning feeling that everyone described. I waited for the breaking of bones. "
But, it didn't happen. Instead I was hit by the voice of my twin. Ervin was screaming. I opened my eyes to see him clutching his chest. I saw his shirt rip. I heard the sickly sound of borns breaking. I saw his arms bending. I saw black fur spreading on him.
