~Ryan’s Point of View~   “... like a lot.”   I felt absolutely sick, and actually I had already thrown up twice today. If anyone at Long tooth found out about this I’d absolutely be a laughing stock, everyone would question my masculinity. While of course we had same sex couples at the pack, there weren’t many. But I had always prided myself on being a ladies’ man and being able to get any female I wanted.    Nate seemed equally shocked and disgusted, and unsure where to direct his anger. I just had too many feelings over it all, and I never usually had unsettled feelings. When I kiss Missy everything is just so amazing, my body feels at peace. When I kissed him, I felt the same, because I THOUGHT in that moment it was her. We punched each other right after it happened

~Missy's Point of View~   Unfortunately the rest of the day went much the same as the first interview. But at least the press conference got pushed back to 3pm due to some emergency the governor had. We were just grateful for the break and found ourselves lounging around in the waiting area of the governor's office. They actually called it a “pause area” and I’d never heard anything so ridiculous.   “Can you believe someone asked me if we all have claw hands and hang out in cemeteries at night? Is this really what humans think of us? No wonder the council wants to change the perception of our kind,” Nate said, annoyed.   “Someone asked me if all we eat is raw meat. They asked if we even have kitchens and bathrooms or just do all our stuff outside. You know, since we’re anima

~Missy’s Point of View~   I got a call from Nate that he needed all available bodies tonight, and he didn’t have time to elaborate so I didn’t quite know what that meant. I was just glad I was getting a night away and skipping school tomorrow. My parents didn’t put up a fight about me sleeping over with them, their daughter was Luna and they made sure to tell every single person whether they asked or not.    I had an hour left of school and I was counting the very seconds.    “Are you still here? Shouldn’t you be taking your freak show elsewhere,” Celia said, from just behind me as I closed my locker.    “I’m no more thrilled about it than you are,” I said, tossing my backpack over my shoulder and wal

~Nate’s Point of View~   “Hi, I’m Alpha Nate, this is Alpha Ryan,” I said, trying to leave the conversation where they would need to explain themselves.   After the intense as fuck nightmare I had, I was starving. But this was more important.   *You just introduced yourself as Alpha. And it sounded pretty fucking good,* Onyx said, boosting my confidence.   “It’s an honor to meet you. I’m Jason. This is my adopted mom Marion. That’s Colt, Trent, Louie, Raine and Tara. The girls are only 12 and 14. We range from 15-17. We’re not blood related but Marion and her husband fostered all of us and slowly adopted us one at a time. Mark, our father passed last year. It’s been pretty damn rough for us ever since. We lost our h

~Ryan’s Point of View~   “I’m fine really,” I grumbled, even though my whole body hurt like hell.   I was certain some loving from my mate would fix everything but they weren’t letting me go home yet. I don’t know why she couldn’t come to me.   I’d helped fend off rogue attacks before, but nothing like this. Those motherfuckers seemed organized, they hit us from all sides at once. The Shadow vamp caught one and tried to torture him a bit for information but the bastard kicked without saying much. Low tolerance for pain, worthless. Likely looking for females, that’s what we assumed.    Well they weren’t fucking getting them from our village! I was still blind with rage that these assholes even thought for a seco
