I don't think being a werewolf is supposed to be this tough. I don't think they get bitten while running for their lives. I don't think they get kidnapped, lured into a trap, restrained, and chased around, all by the alpha who created them. Then again, what do I know?

I also don't think they get a bounty of three million dollars placed on their heads or get kidnapped by a psychotic orphan. If I had three million dollars, I'd get as far away from here as I could. That much money might convince Mason and my parents to come with me.

I see the way Scott's pack looks at him. They trust him. Does Scott expect me to trust him? Should I trust him?

Stiles made an offhand comment that technically, Scott's first beta was the vessel for an evil fox spirit that dissolved into nothing right after Kira stabbed him. I don't know if this makes me feel better or worse.

The pack made it this far. Their names are on the list, too. I can at least trust Scott to try to stop this dead pool, at least for his friends. I'll see what happens afterward. Maybe Scott deserves another chance with me, like I'm getting at this school.
