It's My first try and I am from Austria so I apologize in advance :)

CHAPTER 1: THE NEW GIRL

Liam was staring at her, like nothing else mattered, like there was noone else in the room. He knew he wasn't alone, but he just couldn't take his eyes of her. It's been quite a while since everything has been normal like this and for everyone it was just a typical Monday morning in history class. But everyone hadn't been through all that... The dread doctors, the chïmeras, Hayden. After Scott had refused to bite her, he somehow managed to convince Satomi to do what had to be done in order to save her life.

And she lived. She sat right in front of him, probably feeling his endless stares. She didn't look different, still human. Just that she wasn't anymore.

She seemed to be okay and he was glad about that, but they hadn't talked since they found out she would survive. Sure, they made out a couple of times, but what if that was just because she thought she was going to die...? Well, she used to hate him, maybe now she would go back to the not liking him.

A soft, unfamiliar voice shook him out of his thoughts.

Maybe you should stop staring.

The voice was so silent, that he thought he had just imagined it. He turned around, looking for someone speaking to him. Everything seemed just as before. Suddenly he saw the girl next to him grinning.

Yes, Liam, I was talking to you.

For a second he froze. She couldn't possibly know what he was, right? But she spoke so quietly that no human could decipher the words coming out of her mouth. Trying to act normal, he answered: I am sorry, did you say anything?

Now the girl turned around to him, still grinning confidently. Don't play dumb with me, sweet naive little wolf, I know you heard me.

Her words left him breathless for a short moment, trying to figure out what to do next. She knew. But how? And who was this girl he had never seen before? He took a good look at her for the first time. She was beautiful, there was no other way to describe her and her long darkblonde curly hair and those almost black eyes. Now that he looked closely they almost seemed purple to him.

Don't be afraid, I mean you and I have to stick together. After all, we are the only freshmen in Scott's pack

Who are you?, he asked as soon as he found his voice again

Lianna, she smiled at him, but you can call me Lily.

The ringing of the bell distracted the young wolf's thought, but when the girl, Lily, was about to leave the room he ran after her. Shouting her name he followed the mysterious beauty in the hallway.

The whole lesson Hayden couldn't concentrate. She felt those blue honest eyes staring a hole in her back and she tried finding out why. When she heard something behind her, she focused all her not-so-human-hearing on it, but she didn't understand more than a name, she didn't know whose though. Her question got answered, when class ended and Liam ran after a pretty girl calling her Lily. Hayden had never seen her before, but she was, and she hated to say that, stunningly beautiful. If only she had her newfound wolf-powers a little bit under control, she would know what the two of them talked.

It was the first day of school since she got Bitten and not having anyone to turn to was driving her crazy. She thought Liam would be there for her, just as he promised not that long ago, but he was busy chasing some girl he didn't even know. That sure wasn't what she expected this day to be like and it made her wonder if maybe she just read to much into his effort of saving her life...

But she didn't just imagine kissing those lips, did she? Or did it simply have no meaning to it?

Hayden wanted nothing more than getting those thoughts out of her head and trying out her wolf reflexes seemed like the best way to do so.

Brett was out in the woods hunting some deer he didn't even want to catch. Everything had finally got somehow back to normal, even though he didn't think that was ever going to be possible. The virus a few months ago had killed most of his family and pack members, but the few survivors were holding on just fine. Brett wasn't one of those. For his little sister, Lori, he had to be brave, someone to give her hope when he himself didn't have any.

He gave up on the animal and sat down on an old stump, almost fully covered in some dead brownish plants. From this point he had an amazing view of Beacon Hills. If it was be his choice to make, the pack would already be thousands of miles away. But he wasn't the alpha, so he had to listen to Satomi's decisions. Whether he liked them or not. Mostly he didn't, to be honest, he seldom did so.

Suddenly Brett heard footsteps behind him and turned around to face a pretty dark-haired girl, probably a year younger than him.

Who are you?, he asked with his claws hidden behind his back, ready to fight his unknown enemy.

She was honestly surprised to see someone here, almost as if it was her territory. What... How can you have heard me?

How can I not have heard you? You body was screaming for attention. If you want to move unrecognized, you probably should learn how to do so first.

His words didn't make any sense to her. Liam never had trouble sneaking up on her or someone else. Maybe it was her fault, maybe she was just too stupid to be a supernatural creature, maybe she just should have died when she was about to.

Brett stared at the girl in front of him, seconds passed without her saying a word, then a single tear found its way down her cheeks. And while it dropped on the cold floor, he watched hr change. As if she had a inner fight, her eyes were blank, not showing any emotions. Suddenly he felt sorry for that girl he had never seen before. When he stood up to walk over to her, Brett noticed the sharp teeth in her half-opened mouth and the intense yellow eyes, that now looked ar him.

Hey, calm down. I didn't mean to hurt you, okay? I'm sorry, I really am.

She didn't answer and he started to wonder if she even heard what he had said. So he stepped closer to her and slightly touched her shoulder, not more than an inch between the two of them.

He tried it again. Who are you?

Now she seemed to wake up, staring at him with fear in her eyes.

The boy was so close to her, she could hear his heart beat and feel his brearh on her face. He looked at her, still waiting for an answer.

Hayden... I am Hayden.

Her voice was weak, just like she was and she hated herself for it. The boy must have recognized her fear, because he backed off a little bit and then he did something that took her breath away. He changed his eye-colour into a bright beautiful gold.

And now that I know your name, I'd love to know what you are doing here and why the fuck you have Satomi's smell all over you.

Hayden took a deep breath and started explaining, everything... The dread doctors, her being made a werewolf, almost dying and last how she was trying out her new powers after Satomi gifted her with the bite.

Brett was schocked, to say the least. How could his alpha just turn this girl without anyone knowing. On the other side that made her, Hayden, a part of his pack and he sure didn't have a problem with that.

Grinning at her he said, well welcome to the pack then, I am Brett by the way and like I said before you still have a lot to learn, young wolf.

She didn't say anything for a while, then she looked up from the ground she had been staring at. Can you teach me?

Teach you how to sneak up on people?

No... Yes, that too. Teach me how to be a werewolf, how to fight, how to survive on my own. I don't want anyone risking their lives for me anymore.
