Chapter One
I look up at the howling rock, the sound of howls echoing through the Valley. The moon light shining bright over all the wolves. I watch as couples get together to sing their sweet song. I sigh. I want to be up there on that rock with a mate of my own, but I've always been alone. I guess I've always just kept to myself, observing in silence. My thoughts flowing as they always do, I find myself distracted.
"What are you doing all alone?" I hear a soft voice behind me and turn to see the most beautiful sight. Mariah.
"I...I...uhhhhh. I'm just enjoying the view" I reply in a soft tone, trying not to stare at the gorgeous wolf in front of me.
"Come on Devon, I see you up here every time the moonlight howl takes place."
I take a moment to swallow my nervousness as I see another wolf approach.
"Galileo" I whisper to myself in a softly angry tone. Galileo looks at Mariah.
"What are you doing here with this useless Omega?" He says to Mariah.
"Let's get out of here babe." He says .
"I'll see you around Devon, I have a date to attend to." Mariah and Devon walk away to the howling rock as I try to contain the pain inside myself. Mariah is with this douche Alpha, who does nothing but treat us Omegas like trash. She deserves better. I watch them walk up the hill till they disappear and I let out a deep growl and scream.
"It's so unfair!"
"What's unfair Devon?" I jump at the sound of my mothers voice.
"Uhhh, nothing Mother. I... Was just speaking to myself." I put on my best poker face and hope my Mom doesn't see the sadness in my eyes.
"Whatever you say honey, your Dad and I are going to the rock to howl, we'll be back soon. I left some caribou in the back of the den for you."
"Thanks Mom." I reply as her and my father walk up the hill to howling rock. I hear my belly grumble so I start down the path to our den. As I enter the den I immediately notice the sweet smell of the meat left behind for me. I approach my food and look at it. My stomach craves the caribou, but my heart weighs heavy. No matter how hungry I am, I can't bring myself to eat. I crawl slowly to the area of the den where I sleep and close my eyes.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" I quickly wake as a I hear a piercing scream. I get to my feet quickly and look around the den, my heart beating a mile a minute. I hear feint sounds of struggle just outside the den. I stand still in fear. I don't know whether to stay in here or to help. I'm only an Omega... I see a shadow quickly dart by the entrance of the den. I want to move, but being to scared to I just stand. I don't know how long I've been standing like this, paralyzed. Relief comes as I hear the voices of my parents. I lay down and curl up, hoping my parents don't notice how late I'm up. I hear a wolf approach me, and feel a light kiss on my forehead.
"Sleep well sweetie."
