In her Shadow

ANNA POVWhere to begin.18 years ago my fraternal twin sister and I were born. We arrived 2 years after our brother Jack, beloved son to our father the Beta to the Fullmoon pack. My sister Sarah and I were different in every way. I couldn't explain it but she could do no wrong. It wasn't that she was smarter or prettier, she just seemed to win in life and things would always go her way. I would have to practically beg our parents for their attention which came to Jack and Sarah. I was basically the third wheel, the bonus child, the extra. My sister Sarah and brother Jack seemed to connect so easily leaving me to be the odd one out. People think we'd have a twin bond but we may as well not even be in the same family.As werewolves 18th birthdays are a big deal because that's when we connect with our wolves and can find our mate. Our mates are a blessing from the Moon Goddess, our other halves who will complete us and make us whole. So when I woke up this mornin

ANNA POVI woke up with a headache feeling dehydrated and hungry remembering what happened yesterday the tears threatened to come back but there were no tears left.I felt sore and weak as I reached over to grab my phone and turn it on.... no new messages. "Come on Anna, we need to eat" Destiny encouraged.I guess she's right.I checked the time. 8am. The pack would all be at training. I walked downstairs slowly making sure I wasn't making any noise and stopped every few steps to make sure I couldn't hear anyone in the kitchen. Nothing.I walked in and as I suspected no one was there.I walked towards the fridge, openned the door and took out the glass bottle of orange juice. I stood there and looked at it bitterly in my hand. A part of me wants to smash the glass bottle on the floor and just walk off but my thought was interrupted."Good morning sweetheart, did you have fun last night?

NICK POVHiding behind some rocks I couldn't help but laugh when the girl I ran into in the woods tripped over something and fell down. She must have heard me because a second later she threw something which hit a tree a couple metres to the right of of me and smashed into a million tiny pieces. Damn that was close, she had to have thrown whatever it was a couple hundred metres at least.After seeing her wolf in the woods while I was going for a run I could feel that there was something special about her but I couldn't work out if we had met before. I don't think I had seen her wolf before but she ran off before telling me who she was.I followed far enough behind her so she couldn't see me but I could see her. I wanted to see where she went and catch a glimpse of her human form. I caught up just in time to see her getting dressed. I couldn't see her face while she was putting the tshirt over her head but I could see how toned she w

ANNA POVI went downstairs but no one was there. They must have all been at the main house again. I don't know if I can be bothered to go over there. I walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge door. Hmmmmm. I closed the fridge door. I opened the freezer door. I closed the freezer door. I opened the fridge door again as if by some magic there would suddenly be something different in it. I closed the fridge and went to the pantry cupboard. I opened and closed all the doors and went to the fridge again. It was the same. I looked to the counter and glared at the fruit bowl. Looking back in the fridge I moved a couple things around and pulled out a container with left over pasta in it. "I guess that will do" i said to myself while putting the container in the microwave to heat.Watching the microwave heat up the pasta was taking forever. I pulled out a fork from the drawer and looked around the room. Apart from the buzzing of the m

ANNA POVShit shit shit shit!what the hell was I thinking!I realised as soon I'd run off towards the tree line that my phone was in my pocket. Once I was out of sight in the trees I turned around to see if he was still there. Yep not only was he still there but he had picked up my clothes and found my phone. He just stood there looking at my stuff for a while making me anxious.Oh no, he dropped my clothes but put my phone in his pocket & walked off.The bastard stole my phone! Just great.I waited a bit longer and when I was sure he was gone I ran back for my shredded clothes still in my wolf form, grabbed my clothes in my mouth & ran back home. Before I opened the door I shifted back to my human form, opened the door and went straight to my room carrying my clothes that now had to be thrown out.After I got to my room, I locked the door behind me and grabbed new clothes to wear. I need to get my p
