~Aston~I step out of bed and stretch. I just turned 18 on Saturday and slept all day yesterday. My shift took a lot out of me, but that's to be expected. I'm a Beta, and our shifts pack a lot of power, not more than an Alpha's shift, but close.My name is Aston Wiley, and I'm the future Beta of the BlackPaw Pack. I'm best friends with the future Alpha King Jamison. He turned 18 a month ago but hasn't found his mate yet. The anticipation is killing me, as I believe I know who my mate is, and I will get confirmation when I get to school.There's a girl that I've been into for a while now. When we were younger, I was always drawn to her, always trying to protect her. As we got older, I kept our friendship going. Something about her always appealed to me, and recently, I felt that maybe it could be the mate bond that I've been feeling all this time. Katarina Harris is beautiful, more beautiful than any other she-wolf. She's 5’8 with a tawny brown complexion. She wears her hair in an asym

~Eddie~“I'm telling you, it was him! It was our son!” Shawna has been home for a few days now, and she's been trying to convince me the entire time. She's been hysterical since the day she returned, and it has me on edge. She truly believes that she saw our son in some random human town. I tried to talk her out of it, but it hasn't worked. When she got back, she was sullen and silent, retiring to bed. The next day, she started with this crazy story and hasn't let up since.I don't know what to say to her that won't set her off. She wants me to agree with her and to go back to that town and find him. I want her to listen to reason and realize that this may not be what she thinks it is. I think her grief is making her see things that aren't there.It has happened to me a few times these last four years. I have been out somewhere and swore I came across my son. The first few times it happened, I ran to the person only to be embarrassed by my mistake. They were never Aston; I was always

~‘A’~I went to the diner every day for a week since I last went and was told that the woman had been back. Maybe, against my better judgment, I decided it would be best just to find her and figure out what all this was about. I've been horribly unsettled since the first time I saw her, and I can't continue this way.As soon as I got off work, I returned to the diner, leaning my car seat back and getting comfortable. I have no idea what makes me think this woman will be back, but something is calling me to see this through. I usually sit here until dark before heading back home, and today will be no exception.I scroll through my phone, mainly reading news articles. I have no social media presence, so I don't spend much time on it. Since I don't know anyone, it seems like a waste. Reading these news articles makes me feel a real disconnect, which is weird. I should be more in touch with what's going on around me.I lose track of time, but something catches my eye. I look up and notice

~Shawna~The color seemed to drain from Aston's face. I can only imagine what a shock this is to him. He truly has no idea what his past life was like or about where he came from. He will even have to be introduced to the werewolf world, and that's why we spoke to Blake before coming back. Aston coming into the pack will be akin to bringing a human into the fold. It's a risky situation, and we need to be prepared for every eventuality.Eddison timidly placed his hand on Aston's arm, trying to calm him in light of this news. I can't imagine what's going through his mind, and as his mother, I wish I could make this all go away. He's going to need me and his father as he navigates his new life. There's no guarantee that he will even remember who he was, but we had to try. “What now?” I look at Eddie, and he nods at me.“We were hoping you would come with us. There are things we need to tell you about us, about yourself. We know this situation is crazy for you and that you don't know us,

~King~“What's on the agenda today?” I lean back in the chair across from my father's desk. I cross my legs, letting my right ankle rest on my left knee. My dad will be stepping down soon, and when he does, he will pass the pack over to me. Katarina will be my Luna, and I can't wait for all of that to be the case.His office door opens, and Dominic walks into the room. He walks over to me, nodding to my dad before sitting in the seat next to me. Dominic will be taking over as the Beta when I get in place. We are both excited to carry this pack.“I wanted to give you two a heads-up.” The look on my dad's face tells me that whatever he wants to say to me is extremely serious. I'm starting to get nervous. I sit up straighter, letting my feet hit the floor. I feel Dominic shift next to me, but I keep my focus on my dad. I swallow, trying to keep my breaths even. “Eddison and Shawna have found him; they found Aston.” I'm on my feet before I can even register to move.“Where is he?! I have
