Prologue:
It's one thing to like someone.. But another to be in love with them.
Leave it to me to never experience either.
I'm too busy dealing with my overbearing mother, and alcholic dad.. My siblings don't help either, with their name-calling, verbal and sometimes even physical abuse, and my inner wolf eating me up inside.
My father and mother are always pushing me to find a mate and soon.. my dad needs someone to own up to the family name who's a male, my brothers aren't ready neither am I.
They wonder why I haven't had a boyfriend.. truth is they're the reason, along with me I guess.
My outer beauty isnt fit for a male. I hate the way I look, but on the inside.. There's more to me then meets the eye. Nobody ever cares about that though.
I have long black hair, my lip and nose pierced , 5'6, blue eyes, slim & smart.
And this is my story.
CHAPTER 1
School has always been my strong point, and my safehouse.
My friends are my world, and my grades are what keep me going, knowing I can get out of here with my 3.8 GPA. when I graduate.
I pulled up onto campus in my blue convertible and cut the engine while my friends surrounded me. I pulled my sleeves down, fixed my make up, and got out of the car putting on a smile.
"Hey guys."
My best friend Brian wrapped his arms around me, and I cringed in his arms feeling the bruise on my ribcage throb madly, and groaned.
He pulled away instantly giving me a concerned look.
"Whats wrong babygirl?" he asked.
"Nothin Bri, really."
Ignoring my protests he pulled me aside grabbing my arm gently and steering me towards a nearby tree.
"What happened Gabby?" he asked more firmly this time.
"It's nothing, seriously you just squeezed me too tight."
"I barely touched you, tell me what really happened, please?"
"It was Jake." I admitted quietly.
His expression changed from concerned to outraged ina second.
"Why did he do this to you?! I'm gonna kill him!"
"No Brian, don't! I desrved it." I ended in a whisper
"How did you deserve it? What did you do?"
"I didn't come when I was called.. He needed me to do his chores before my mom came home.. Pushed me into the dresser, the edge of it caught me in the side."
"That bastard., I swear to god.. you shouldn't take that.. not from anybody."
"He's my family Brian. They all are. I can't just leave.."
He shook his head.. "I hate seeing you like this.."
I gave him a sympathetic smile,"I'm fine. I always am. Plus, it doesn't happen all the time. Only occasionally. Theres some good times, not all bad."
Before he could say anything I decided to walk away to my other friends untill the bell rang, Brian followed knowing he had lost the fight, he always did.
All of my friends were werewolves. Not everybody in my school, but we kept a low profile being seen & heard but not found out. Having friends like me was easier, less complicated. I didnt have to lie. Ever.
But that doesn't mean I told them everything.. 'Cause thats what happens when your werewolves there were few that actually knew what happened, others assumed, most knew it wasn't their business unless I made it their business. That rule applied for everyone.
I hated it. But could do nothing to control it. Theres no privacy, no secrets, everything was out in the open.
I walked into class with a few of my friends; Erika, Anthony, Alex, and Puck. Puck was my chemistry partner so we sat together while Alex & his twin Anthony sat together. Erika was stuck with a human named Terran, who greeted her with a warm smile.
Happily I started looking through my book bag to find my chemistry folder, and text book. we were studying the elements of the periodic table. I loved this stuff, it was short, sweet & simple. Looking at the board I already saw what chapter we needed to be studying, for our labs, and flipped to it. Puck tapped me on the shoulder before I could get into it.
"What Puck?" I asked annoyed.
"Geesh, chill out. Just wanted you to know we got a new Chem teacher, I hear he's pretty scrumptious." He waggled his eyebrows at me in a suggestive manner, and I laughed at him.
"Please, Puck. I don't have time for a boyfriend, nor do I want one."
"You dont know that.. He could be the one."
"No. Not likely, or possible. He's probably some old man."
"Oh? well there's your "old man" right now." He said smirking at me.
"You think I'm old, do you?" I heard a sexy male voice ask.
I turned my head, and couldn't believe what.. or should I say who stood before my eyes.
