Prologue
Hazel closed her eyes and took a deep breathe, she couldn't find the relief she longed for. She had been running for more than two months and right now all she wanted was to lay down and sleep. The memories of losing many of her loved ones still pained her but she had promised herself that she wouldn't think of that right now. Hazel may have missed her family and the people in her pack at home but she couldn't be there while he wasn't.
Her family could live with or without her and so could the pack so, she ran from her home in Romania. It took her a while to get from there to Port Angeles. She took a flight to Vancouver then ran from there as far as she could so that she couldn't be traced. Now that she was surrounded by rain she needed to get in to her human form to survive.
She looked to the right of her where she saw the lights from the nearing city and sighed. She figured it was about time to change again and eat some food. She hated being in her human form because she couldn't help but remember all of those she couldn't speak to. Life as she knew it had change in the past year that it hurt to even think of who she was now. She vowed that she would change her name so that no one from her pack could trace her. Tomorrow was the day she would start her new life and make sure she left Hazel Mari behind.
Hazel changed in the wood outside a little town called forks. She saw in her last rest stop that there were motels in the area and that gave her an opening to live somewhere for the mean time. She let her hazelnut hair roll down her back as she changed into her clothes.
Hazelwasn't exactly a normal human being. She was a shifter and that gave her abilities that most don't have. Her family had been the original shifters in the world so she knew the curse and anyone who had been bitten by one of her kind would be in the curse as well. That made Hazelan alpha to almost ever pack in the world. She was stronger than most of her kind and was fast. She was the fastest in her pack which was a lot to say.
She was slim and tall. She was told by her father that she looked much like her mother did at her age but Hazel wouldn't know. Her mother had left shortly after she had been born and left Hazel to her father. She was the youngest of her family so she was known as the princess of the pack.
Most of the Packs they had encountered decided that the Romanian pack was the royal pack. They were the originals and will always be. Her pack had made a joke of the name and named a lot of the pack members after royal titles.
Hazel had brown hair and bright blue eyes due to her ancestry, when she was little she was told the story of how a witch had cursed the family and singled out her family. Giving them the curse of shifting and also the family trait of blue eyes, because blue eyes; at the time, had been known as an indicator that the person was a witch. If you were a witch you were hanged.
Hazel sighed and walked across the forest floor and wandered down the road where she found a motel that she would be staying in. When the front man asked her name so he could make sure that she would be staying her for a while she said Chloe Heartly. Chloe was her middle name and a family friends name had been Heartly until of course he had been hunted down and the name died with him. So now she will forever be Chloe Heartly
