Chapter 1
I stand there tall and proud the freezing wind blowing in my fur the ends glistening with a slight silver glint in the moon light, my body towering over the steep rock face we call a home but really we were bound to the place body and soul no one can ever know we exist.
Emotionless that's how I feel we weren't made to have feeling or to love; those feelings weren't made for monsters. By we I mean my brothers and sister we were all made like this in the accident it was all so surreal, we were just playing on our mountain house with our mum and dad I remember it like it was yesterday the sun, the faint smell of charcoal...
Mummy and daddy are making burgers and chips they smell so good. Elliot is chasing me and Kate he won't catch me I am way to fast, I am running through the woods and I get my foot caught on something. Owww! Just before Ethan catches me I am dragged by someone's arm through a bush.
STOP IT STINGS! I hit the person very hard, I hear a quiet muffled yelp from behind a hand and then laughing. Hey it's Elliot, Kate and my oldest brother Ethan.
"Hey sis you should have seen the look on your face you were sooooo scared" Ethan teases between laughs.
"Stop it Ethan it's not funny you are all so mean I hate you all!" I shout as loud as I can and snarl. "Hey sis we..." I leap up from my sitting position and run as fast as I could, not stopping to hear what they had to say, this place is my safety spot Kate and I found it a long time ago.
Just as Kate and my brothers come running up to me the ground starts to shake and the sky turns blood red. Where's mummy and daddy I want mummy and daddy! Then the world goes black and sound is muffled...
None of us know what happened that day but we have been cursed ever since to turn into monsters every night...
5 years later and here I am different city same problems always following us. I still have my brothers but unfortunately we don't know what happened to our parents and my sister Kate wasn't so lucky she died a year ago today at the hands of a man I despise more than anything, Christian Grey he found out about us and has been hunting us ever since, we don't know what he wants we just know it's something to do with the curse but problem is he has no soul or conscious just like us nothing gets through to his stone cold heart we would get on well if he wasn't such an asshole, my sister would have been 18 today if it wasn't for him. He is the head of the Italian mafia and is known to be the most ruthless yet beautiful person in the whole of America possibly the world, his name has a very powerful influence all over the world everyone knows his name and because of this curse so do I.
My brother Elliot is 28 now and has dirty blond hair that anyone would assume was brown because of all the dirt in his hair and a tanned completion with piercing green eyes he is about 6 foot and muscular but not as muscular as my other brother but he is the goofball out of us all once he tricked Ethan into getting stuck in a rabbit trap, let's just say that's why Elliot found himself the next day strung from a tree.
Ethan is 32 and has dark brown hair with pale skin and blue eyes plus he has a little scar on his right eyebrow when he won a fight with a cougar, his about 6 foot 8 (he is well built but it comes with a price when the volcano curse happened each of us got amazing gifts Elliot got the brains Ethan got the brawn and me I got my sight, smell and hearing enhanced to that of an animal).
Then there was me I have dark brown hair with bits of gold and strawberry blond with blue eyes and tanned skin like my brother Elliot and I am taller than most girls my age which is 24 and I am about 5 foot 9, oh by the way my name is Anastasia but most people call me Ana, Christian calls me Anastasia so anyone else saying it makes me want to vomit.
Here I am sneaking though the long grass the moisture from last night's downfall of rain brushes against my fur and paws leaving me feeling chilled but whether that is from the moisture or not is still to be known, mmmm deer I think tonight right now to pick off the perfect kill.
A little fragile fawn with a slight faded bite mark on the back left ankle and I watch as the herd left the deer slightly tailing behind. Leaping though the long grass the moon lighting my way reflecting on my fur to make it look sliver. Right go for the back leg and as I grab on to the back leg I hear a sickening crack of bone and a thump.
Dragging the deer up the mountain I hear gun shots about two just up the mountain. Then a third just to the left of where I am standing the bullet no wait not a bullet a tranquilizer dart barely brushing my fur I have no time to react my instinct is to just to sprint up the mountain. Breathe, breathe and I am home and I notice a shadow howling at the moon it's is a black coated wolf, Elliot. I am breathing hard and panting harder as I wryly drag my legs over to Elliot I sit down next to him trying not to startle him and lift my head to howl in a sing song voice entwining with my brothers. He turns to me and licks my fur and I cuddle up next to him, how this feels like home but really I know it won't be long before we have to move on again just like all the other places, and with that though I start to lose my sense of my surroundings and fall into a deep sleep. The crunching of footsteps ringing in my ears.
I wake with a start it's funny it feels like someone just touched my cheek, wow! Suddenly I feel a sharp pain in my feet and arms, burning pain.
(Every time we transform we get pain in our feet and arms but the pain is intensified when you are awake transforming, yes that's right everything you heard in werewolf books are false it's a painful burning sensation one which is hard to bear.)
I look around and see Elliot snuggled up to a rock, he looks so cute like a little puppy the way his hair falls on his face and his... drool pooling around... his face... oh ummm ok, looking around again my face slowly scanning the area for a threat. Whoa! What happened here there are three tranquilizer darts in the rock face and a slight smell of body wash. NO, NO he can't have been here no not him!
