True love's first kill

I sit with them on the porch, and take the cup of coffee that Micheal offers me, as i start to tell them everything that happened.  "Father came to me two days ago, he had learned of a plot... to kill Alpha maxwell. As the captain of the guard it is my fathers job to protect the Alpha, but to do so would require the use of his guard. Most of whom can only fight effectively in wolf form. Which would leave them vulnerable to the more deadly weapons of the hunters..." I trail off and take a drink of my coffee. Micheal is the first to speak. "Your father asked you to... what? Assassinate these hunters? Thats fucked up... I mean.. Annie., i know you are good with hand to hand combate and all... But considering your condition, that does seem risky to me..." he says. I know that the "condition" he is refering to is that i was the first of our kind to be born without a wolf, i still have hightened senses compared to the average human. My sight and hearing is nea

My mind feels raw, like it was put through a meat grinder. My eyes feel like someone used a melon baller to rip them out and then shoved them back in my head. These thoughts are the first to register in my mind as I return to consiousness. I am laying on something soft, i haven't opened my eyes yet, but i can tell the lights are very bright based on the redness shining through my closed eyelids.  Then the voices register, loud, and angry, and all male. I know one to be my father, he is demanding to see me, but the doctors keep telling him he has to wait until I wake up. Micheal and Peter are fighting with someone, I can't tell who he is. A pack member maybe? or the man? Whoever he is I do not recognize the voice, but it is the most beautiful voice i have ever heard, even angry it sounds like music.  I try to clear the fog from my mind while I am still alone. What happened? How long have i been out? Slowly I take stock of my body, my ribs are taped and sore,

"Ansel, what pack are oyu from?" I ask, suddenly curious because it can't be one of the pack's near by, or surely i would have met him before now... But if he was from a pack further away, i may not have met him. We are friendly amongst ourselves, most werewolf packs send groups of 17 year olds and older unmated wolves, to visit other packs in search of the amore. Traditionally the men do the traveling and the woman remain at their home packs. This started after an Alpha missed his amore because she was out looking for him, he found her 2 years later than he would have if she stayed put. It is not a law or anything, but most packs follow this as an unspoken rule, because no one wantds to miss their amore. The young men spend the summer months traveling from pack to pack until they find their amore, or the summer ends. Amore is the word we use to mean fated mates, paired by the moon goddess. Inamorato is the name you call your make partner, and Inamorata is the female partner. I know

<I have so many questions> I tell her <Do you think we will be able to shift now?> *Honestly, i don't know... I feel like I am completely free from wherever I was trapped. But I also feel like there is a piece of us missing. Like our connection is not yet fused? I don't think we should try and shift again until we know alot more about this cures.*<Your right Mal. As soon as they let us leave the hospital we will start researching.> "Ansel, I just met my wolf!" I tell him excitedly "Her name is Mal, well, it's Mal for short... But still, I met her!""That's wonderful"He says. We are both grinning like idiots when doctor Paul enters the room. He has my next round of medications to help boast my healing, since i heal at the rate of a normal human, the doctors try to help me heal as fast as possible, they have made some incredible discovery's because of their desire to help me. I sit up without wincing, and

We spent the afternoon working in the third floor library. We make very little progress as the pile of books around us grows. Just before 6pm the Luna comes to find us for dinner. She is short, with long blonde hair, and a bright smile. She is average looking, but to those of us in her pack, she is the most beautiful mother we have seen. I believe it is a part of the magic of a Luna, as the leader's of the pack the Luna ans Alpha can give orders that MUST be followed. But what's more, we all love them in a way that we simply can't help. We love our Luna so much, that we would all die for her in an instant, it is her duty t care for us, and it is ours to protect her. "All right now, Annie... Ansel... Jack... Let's go. It's time for dinner. And you all need a break." Luna said. "Yes Luna"y father and i said in unison as we stood. Luna grabbed my hand and pulled me over to the stairs, calling over her shoulder "Hurry up boys, everyone is waiting for us." Once
