Ghost Wolf

Chapter 2

"Are you ready for your first day of school?" Mom asked me as she put a plate of toast next to my

plate of scrabbled eggs.

"I guess." I took a drink of my milk and set it next to my orange juice. Werewolves have big appetites

if you haven't noticed. "I hope the vamps just don't cause any problems this year. I have enough to worry about."

"I'm sure nothing will happen. They've been behaving very well for the past few years, I don't see why

they would cause any problems now." Our school is made up of mostly werewolves and vampires, only about a third of the school is human.

"What time is it?" I finished my last piece of toast and my juice and Mom grimaced a little.

"You're going to have to run."

"Damn it." I said this under my breath as I grabbed my bag and ran out the door of our apartment. I

took the short cut through the woods so I could run faster. I got to school with twenty minutes to spare; if I had ran at human speed I would only have five.

"Well, well. Looks like the Princes showed up." I snarled at Jared as he and his table of skanks

laughed. I rolled my eyes and walked up the front steps of the school. On my left were the werewolves, and a few humans, and on my right were the vampires, also having a few humans mixed in. That's how every class room is set up, wolves to the left, vamps to the right.

The pack bowed their heads and I nodded to them. The vamps also bowed their heads in respect and I

nodded. We've been on very good terms with the vampires for the past five hundred years.

"You ready for junior year?!" Ivey screeched in excitement as she and her sister walked on either side

of me.

"I guess."

"Party pooper." Genevieve had her flirty voice on, which meant some cute humans were around.

"Leave the humans alone."

"Have you ever been with a human?" Genevieve raised an eyebrow at me and smiled a little. "They're

so much fun to play with!"

"Genevieve!" She bowed her head and peaked over at the humans again. I rolled my eyes and opened

my locker.

"Just ignore her." Ivey waved her sister off. "What was that about with Dylan protecting you??"

"I don't know Ivey, but thank you for reminding me, I have to thank him.

"I think that spit swap was thanks enough for him." I hit Genevieve upside the head and she

whimpered a little.

"I don't think it's far that the vamps don't age but we do."

"Ivey, you bring this up every year, let it go." She frowned and I closed my locker.

"Hey! There's Dylan." Ivey nodded towards the lunch table of human punks. "I feel bad for him,

having to sit with humans."

"We have to sit with humans, remember?" Ivey made a disgusted face just before the popular click of

human girls sat at our table.

"Ivey! What did you do to your hair?!" I grimaced and got up from the table as Ivey explained her
