I woke up from sunlight shining in my face. 'Shit! I skipped my watch!' I bolted up into a sitting position from my laying one. I looked around and saw Dean, laying a few feet in front of me, EmmaLee curled up next to me, Bryan up and alert and Shaemas snoring loudly.

"I'm so sorry Bryan! Why didn't you wake me up when I overslept my turn?" I demanded, looking at him with wide mossy green eyes.

"I didn't wake you up because you looked so peaceful and beautiful while you were asleep." He explained.

"You still should've woken me up." I growled. I felt kind of creeped upon, knowing that Bryan was watching me as I slept.

"Ally calm down." He whispered as he stood up and started walking over to me after he stepped over Dean. I was up in an instant; I felt as if Bryan was threatening me. EmmaLee woke up and her sleepy green eyes gazed upon me and Bryan.

"Back off." I growled. He didn't listen as I figured he wouldn't have; he just kept his advance closer to me. "Back off." I repeated, my voice still a growl.

He was in front of me now. And he was forcing me against a tree as he grabbed my head, forced it down and kissed my lips.

"I said back off!" I yelled as I shoved Bryan away from me. He fell to the ground right next to Dean who was sitting up, looking confused. EmmaLee was just shaking her head.

"Ally, I'm sorry. I didn't know what came over me." Bryan said as he stood up. I was already in wolf form and growling at the boy who had just kissed me.

"What did you do, Bryan?" He asked as he stood up and crossed his arms over his chest.

He kissed me. I looked at Dean. After I told him twice to back off.

That was when Dean shoved Bryan against a tree and punched him in the face several times. I couldn't handle it anymore. I turned and ran away from my Pack. I wanted to see a wolf I hadn't see in a few days. But I had to go to Maine to see him.

I ran through the woods I had only been through once. No thoughts of Dean or Bryan or the rest of my Pack entered my head. Just thoughts of the boy I was going to see

30 minutes later, I was in Maine. Chace? I asked, feeling insecure. Since the last time I was in Maine, I had killed Braxton, the pure white wolf who would've raped me if Chace hadn't come along.

Ally? What are you doing here? Chace asked as he came from my left. He was in his wolf form. And you're a LateChanger? When did this happen?

Oh, a few days ago. That's when I became a LateChanger. And I'm here because my boyfriend and one of my Pack members got into a fight after Bryan kissed me. I explained, half growling Bryan's name. And I came to ask you something.

Wow, a LateChanger and an Alpha? Damn girl, a lot must've happened after I saw you last. By the way, what was it that you wanted to ask me? He replied.

Yeah, a lot has happened. I thought I killed my ex, Alec and after I had joined a Pack, we all figured out that he wasn't dead after all. So after I LateChanged, I was able to kill Alec for good. Then I left Aiden's Pack and started my own with four members of my previous Pack. Dean, EmmaLee, Shaemas and Bryan. I was still growling Bryan's name. Speaking of Packs… Would you like to join mine?

Chace was speechless and he was going to say no or at least I thought he was because he was so damn quiet. Until he said, Sure.

You don't have to if you don't want to. I said, looking at him with my mossy green eyes.

I want to, Ally. I was just surprise that you asked me. He said.

I didn't say anything in response But then I said, follow me if you wish to join. Then I took off running back towards Iowa.
