"Miss Catlin, you can sit next to Mr. Hale in the back there." Mr. Manfred told me as I entered the chemistry. Great, I get to sit next to creepy dude. Laura sat up in the front and I made my way to the back and sat down next to Derek. I literally felt him bit back a growl as I sat down. I tried to ignore him and looked ahead. Laura turned around and stared at Derek and nodded before turning back around. Mr. Manfred began teaching and I tried to concentrate on whatever gibberish he was writing on the board.

"Wait for ten seconds after Laura leaves then come out into the hallway." Derek muttered in my left ear, his hot breath tickling me. I turned and looked him in the eye.

"And why will I do that?" I asked him.

"Because you will." He got up and walked his cute little werewolf ass out the room.

"Mr. Hale!" Mr. Manfred called after him. Laura then got up and followed Derek. "Miss Hale!" One. . . Two. . . Three. . . Four. . . Five. . . Six. . . Seven. . . Eight. . . Nine. . . Ten. I picked up my bag and walked out of the room. "Miss Catlin!" I closed the door after me. I turned to right to see Derek and Laura standing side by side.

"Look, this better be good." I said. Derek grabbed me by the collar of my shirt and slammed me up against the maroon lockers.

"Easy, Bro." Laura said, gently placing her hand on Derek's shoulder.

"Your brother has some anger issues." I told Laura.

"We just want to know something." Laura said softly. "If we're wrong, we apologize in advance."

"And if you're right?" I asked.

"Then we're right. Derek." Keeping one hand on my chest, he used his other hand to reach into his back pocket and pull out a pocket knife.

"Whoa, easy with that thing, Derek." He flipped it open and Laura force me to extend my left arm, palm up. Derek ran the blade over the veins above my wrist and I let out a hiss of pain. "Ow, you bitch!" Laura and Derek stared at my arm as blood spilled out. Then, the blood flowed back into my blood stream and the cut sewed back up by itself. Oh, shit, busted. I looked at Derek and Laura. "How did you know?" I yanked my arm away from them. Derek and Laura took a step back.

"You don't smell human." Derek answered.

"Well, sorry to burst your bubble but you don't smell all that pleasant either." I growled.

"You know?" Laura questioned me.

"Yeah, you guys are Laura and Derek Hale. Betas. Your parents are alphas to a pack on the outskirts of town. Well, guess what?" I made my eyes flash red and Derek and Laura stepped back again in shock. "I'm an Alpha too." Laura looked at Derek.

"You just cut an Alpha in the arm." Laura growled at Derek as she slapped him in the chest.

"Don't start with me, Laura. This was you idea." Derek snapped. He turned his attention back to me. "Meet us in the parking lot after school today."

"What for?" I asked.

"You're going to meet our parents." Laura said.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT TTTTTTTTTTTT

School finally ended, English being the last class. I pulled out my phone and quickly text Connor, telling him I was going to a friend's house. I looked around the parking lot and saw Laura leaning up against the driver's side of a black camaro. Derek stood beside her. When they saw me walking towards them, Laura got into the driver's seat and Derek in the passenger and I disappeared into the back. The drive was silently to the outskirts of town. Laura turned into the woods and drove up beside a large house. Laura and Derek got out and I reluctantly followed them. Three men and a girl came out of the house when they smelt my apple scent. Or a new Alpha scent.

"Whose this?" The girl asked as she sat down on the porch, legs dangling over the edge and she ran her fingers through her thick blonde hair.

"Where's Mom and Dad?" Laura asked.

"I don't know." The girl chuckled as she blew at her fingernails.

"Calla," Derek growled.

"Behind you." A female's voice sounded. I swished around and saw a short black hair woman walking towards us. God, Derek looked a lot like her but he had his father's eyes I observed as a tall man walked up beside the woman. "This he? The Alpha?"

"Yep." Laura answered. The woman circled me, her fingers barely grazing my shoulders. She stopped back in front of me.

"Lulu." The woman said, holding out her hand. "My husband, Darren."

"Mara Catlin." I said, holding out my hand and shaking hers.

"Do you have a pack?"

"No. Are there any omegas around here?"

"Nah," Darren answered. "We either try to make them join or scare them off."

"They mostly don't want to join because of Derek's attitude." Laura muttered. Derek growled at her and Laura growled back.

"You two, please," Lulu chucked then in a stern tone, "Stop it."

"How would you like to join our pack?" Darren asked.

"I don't know." I groaned looking at all the people. "I mean, three Alpha's and one pack. Doesn't seem right."

"We can make it work." Lulu said. "Plus, someone has to be Calla's babysitter." I looked at Calla who was now laying down on the porch. I smiled.

"I think I can do that." I said, turning back to Lulu and Darren.

"Great." Darren smiled. "Be at Moonlit's Rock on the full moon."

"Will do." I smiled back.
