When I got to the school parking lot Miranda was tapping her foot “ I said you can use my car , not use it in a bank heist” she teased sliding into the driver’s seat  taking note of my expression  her features sober  tears streaming down my cheeks “What’s wrong baby girl, are you still upset about Xander?” I shook my head  “ Then what is it” How does one tell their human best friend that they are in fact a wolf but her wolf is dormant so she is in a sense almost as useless as her mortal friend without either insulting her or  getting checked into  a mental institute.

“Take me home Miranda I’m tired”  she didn’t say another word just drove through the streets in silence

*****   Curling up in a little ball I sob into my pillow , somehow he knew my darkest  insecurity the one I holed up inside and never let look like it bothered me but it did . If I don’t shift I have the lifespan equivalency of a human give or take a couple years. They’ve tried with so many tests to figure out why, all my siblings have shifted, and this didn’t make sense.  Have you ever once thought if you accept me this might help your shifting problem?    I don’t care if he is my mate he’s a player and I’ll be damned if I’ll be another trophy to put on his mantel, never to look at again.

He can try all he wants ill at least give him that, but he’ll tire of it eventually

The next morning after rolling out of bed   I groan stumbling into the bathroom my eyes were red the bags underneath bigger than water balloons I looked horrible I’m glad I was the only child left after three older siblings mated and moved on with their lives I wouldn’t want them seeing me like this
human,   absolutely human and nothing in this world was going to change that. “What so wrong with me?” I whispered to my reflection staring back at me was he right?   I pondered staring at my hazels bathed in light red from my endlessly night crying   could that be the solution to this nightmare?

As I thought more about it I began to slowly decide it was worth a shot, just one and if it didn’t work out well it was just an experiment nothing more

Fixing my  hair and pushing my glasses center on my nose I nod decisively

I wasn’t going to go another day without testing out every possible scenario  

I sigh   let’s not forget the fact Xander is still a player  

What if I got attached was this really worth the risk ?

Deciding not to dwell on it I hop in the shower washing away my every doubt
