Ch.1: New Life

Jayla's POV

I was exploring the orphanage again, when I heard voices. I'd been staying here for a year which actually was risky because I was worried about somebody noticing I didn't look 16 anymore, but not much, just wishing that someone would get me out of this place. I've been living alone, before this, until I got tired of hiding, I faked that I walked here from my burned down house and both of my parents are dead, which is true, except it happened alot earlier, like 6 years earlier

"I'm sorry... but that was all the kids in the orphanage," the lady at the front desk says. This is low, now they stopped introducing me to people! I walk right to her, I tower over her by a foot, at least.

"You didn't 'forget' me again did you?" I say menacing. making air quotes, like everyone else in the orphanage, I was the intimidator, but unlike the rest, that doesn't stop her from trying.

"Oh, how rude of me," she tries.

"No. Don't start the innocent thing, remember this, Ms. Luna? I don't understand why you're even introduced to people anymore. It's obvious no one would ever want you. Remember that? You said that to me yesterday! I have witnesses!" I don't like when people do that. A tremor runs through my arms. For some reason after my last birthday, if I got mad I'd just shake. I turn to the people. I caught their scent, the man is a werewolf. "Hello, my name is Jayla Mason," I introduce myself, with a nicer voice, and I hold out my hand. The wolf man's big hand takes mine and he smiles.

"Hello," his deep voice is kind, "I'm Sam Uley, and this is Emily, it's nice to meet you,"

"It's nice to meet you too, sir,"

"How old are you?"

"I just turned 17 a week ago,"

"Well, would you like to come with us,"

"Yes, sir," That was only the beginning.

At Emily's house

Wow, the Pack was huge, like 26 of them, something drastic must have happened to make this many phase.

"Leah? Where's Seth," Sam asks the girl that's with them, who's Seth?

"Heck if I know. Probably the usual, you'd think he'd given up by now," she rolls her eyes.

"Leah," his voice takes on a new tone, like giving an order, "You know he can't do that, you wouldn't either if you were in his shoes," she turned her back on him, what did he do? Other than... that situation, they were all nice, they showed me my room, and I felt like I finally had a home.

A/N: It get's much more interesting... Trust Me. Anyway, R & R, and no hate comments!
