"We invite you" reading aloud the wedding invitation that Sam and Emily sent me "to celebrate the union between Samuel Laurence Uley and Emily Delilah Young on June Twentieth" those cheating lying bastards even sent an RSVP, so I quickly responded by saying decline. I'm not going to that wedding and if Seth or my parents even go, I'm disowning them.

You know what? I'm going to make it clear to them and call them, if they care for me at all they won't go to that wedding. "Leah" Mom answers "How's visiting the college in New York?"

"I'm really liking it here" looking around the beach, the waves that crash by and sparkle under the moon and stars from the night sky above "and it helps how I have a scholarship"

"It's Leah" I hear mom tell someone "it's your dad"

"Where's Seth?" I ask

"At school" Dad says "did you get Emily's and Sam's wedding invitation?"

"Why" Mom whispers to dad harshly "would you bring that up?"

"It's happening" dad reminds her "we can't change it"

"That is why I'm calling" cutting off the argument that will happen "I'm not going and if you love me, neither of you including Seth will go to that wedding"

"Leah" Dad argues "Emily is your cousin, your best friend"

"It's been four months!" Screaming at him through the phone, I want to hold back but I am not. I can't "they began dating two weeks after Sam broke off the engagement! What kind of cousin does that dad? Hmm? The fact that you want to go to that wedding and support them says a lot"

"It's one thing if you don't go Leah" Dad says "but you can't ask us to pick between you and your cousin, she's family and"

Tears run down my face "Then I guess I know where your loyalties lie" hanging up the phone, I can't believe my family would be fine in going to their wedding. I mean it's been four months since the wedding was called off and Sam is engaged to another woman, two weeks after the engagement ended Emily and Sam began going out. All of my friends are also friends with Emily, I mean...I can't even go to La Push without people looking and staring at me with different emotions which include some thinking I'm an asshole for not being happy for Sam and Emily.

But how can I be happy for them? How? It's clear that they were fucking behind my back, Sam was already cheating on me. I can't and I refuse to even try. I no longer care if it makes me the asshole, I'm not going to be there anymore.

Putting away my phone not answering mom when she calls, looking around the place with my arms crossed. Listening to the crashing waves, everything is alright until I hear the pained cries of someone. No not one person but two people. Standing up and walking towards the sounds, I stop when I hear snarls.

Taking a few steps back not liking how I heard snarls, my foot steps on a branch and before I can turn around to run this burning pain fills my shoulders as this weight is above me. Looking up this large golden wolf is on me and I let out this cry when the wolf bit the bottom side of my neck.

The wolf is then knocked off me by a wolf with dark brown fur, both of the wolves are much larger than your average wolf. Standing up as I have a hand on my bleeding neck, stumbling backwards watching the two wolves fight before the brown wolf has the upper hand.

Turning around feeling sweat cover my body, I run back to my car or try to. Everything is spinning around and is dizzy, falling to the ground. I'm still conscious but my limbs are very tired and weak at the moment, what the actual fuck? I haven't been drinking in a bar or anything and I can't feel my limbs.

My eyes flutter open barely and my eyes fall on this naked man with a concerned face. He has short cut black hair with facial hair, almond brown skin and dark brown eyes. Behind him is a naked woman with light tan skin, long blonde hair and blue eyes.

"She's going to be" the woman asks "okay right?"

"I don't know" the man places his hand on my face "hey, hey" This tired groan escapes me "That is not good"

"Maybe my saliva didn't go into her?" The woman fidgets "Logan, please say she's not"

"I don't know" he turns back to her "Elena? Why did it take so long for you to shift? You normally don't take so long! The wolf took over and since she did you didn't know any better!"

"I'm sorry" she cries

"What" I ask looking to this Logan "What is going on?"

"This isn't good" feeling arms around me before nothing but air, feeling gravity pulls me back to the earth "we have to bring her to Stonehaven"

"Do we have to?" Elena pleads

"Elena!" Logan yells "you bit someone, a woman. Not every woman is as lucky as you were"

"Where" looking around seeing trees go by "where are we going? Where...where are we...are you...taking" everything turns black then.

When I open my eyes this ringing sound goes through my mind, feeling my limbs come back to me but my entire body is sore. "What happened?" Falling out of the metal bed.

Standing up I find myself in a metal cage, grabbing the bars shaking it but it's locked "Hello" looking over seeing a man with short brown hair with facial hair, blue eyes and warm ivory skin "my name is Jeremy. Your in my home in Stonehaven"

"Why" feeling my heart pound in my chest as I look around, my body begins to cover in sweat "why..." my breathing is hard "why am I in a cage?"

"What's your name?" He asks

"Leah" looking down, I see I'm still in my clothes but patting myself down my phone and keys aren't with me "Where..."

"I'm afraid Leah" looking to Jeremy who has a solemn expression "you're very sick"

"No" shaking my head as everything changes, the colors around me start to turn more yellow "a member of my pack bit you" placing a hand on my neck where I feel the wolf bite "she is a wolf, we are all wolves. I was born this way" Falling to my hands and knees feeling my bones move "Elena was bitten and you've been bitten too" This groan escapes me as I take deep breaths panting, cracks are heard from my body and I try to focus on my breathing as this burning pain goes up and down my body "What is happening to you right now is called the first Change, unfortunately you're about to experience a world of pain" this scream escapes me as I try to breathe, I need to breathe "unlike anything you've ever felt before"

This bitter laugh escapes me as I look his way sweating, more of my bones start to break "I've felt worse" the pain of getting ditched at the alter basically and finding out that your cousin has betrayed you along with your family is the worst pain you'll ever receive.

Looking at my hands as my hands begin to change, closing my eyes as I grunt and scream. My clothes split and tear off of me and I let the pain in, I embrace the pain.

Hearing these snarls and growls escape me, the pain soon goes away and I look at my hands seeing paws, grey paws. Looking around then up to Jeremy, since I felt a hand on my head. He is smiling as he looks down at me, hearing footsteps I see two men come into the room.

A bald man with tan skin and dark brown colored eyes, he is shorter than the other man but the bald man is a little more bulky than the other one. The taller one has short brown hair with facial hair, brown eyes and warm ivory skin.

"She made it through?" The taller man asks

"Maybe Elena" Jeremy says "could sire an entire line of female werewolves? Being the first female werewolf"

"Maybe" the bald man agrees "but first maybe we should figure out this girl's ancestry, Elena doesn't know hers but there might be a reason why the woman here is able to turn into a wolf"

🐺

"Wouldn't I be a type a wolf shifter?" I ask the pack of werewolves. Well some of the pack since not all of the pack is here "since don't werewolves turn under a full moon?"

"That was a different breed of werewolves" Antonio shakes his head no "but Leah? We have to ask, is there a history of werewolves in your family?"

"No" shaking my head no "though my tribes legends claim that we could turn into wolves when the pale cold ones are nearby, whatever that meant"

"Vampires" Jeremy explains "cold one vampires"

"Vampires are real?" I ask "What about witches? Fairies? Mermaids?"

"Witches yes" Jeremy confirms "but as for fairies and mermaids? We aren't too sure about that. But what tribe are you from because some Native American tribes do have the ability to turn into wolves and its most likely because your descendant from one of the tribes that your able to survive the Change"
