Admiring the Night sky which is highlighted with stars makes the moon look even more fascinating.A beautiful view indeed which never fails to provide a sense of warmth to heart as if Moon goddess herself has embrace me to give the comfort no one succeed to provide.
Cold breeze touched my skin causing the hairs on my body to rise.Wrapping my arms around myself ,I walked further towards the balcony before turning to look at my room.Only source of light in my room is moonlight which I find more comfortable.
My eyes moved back to the sky before it stopped on the Moon.I don't know if it's only me but everytime I admire the moon ,I find a smile on it which makes me doubt my eyesight or maybe I had develop a habit to find happiness in the things which could never hurt me or give me false hope.
My eyes slowly travelled to the stars before I felt someone's strong gaze on me.My eyes itself moved to the direction only to lock with a pair of red glowing eyes which stared right back into mine.
The shadows around him made it hard to get a clear view of his face but the sharp fangs didn't go unnoticed by me which almost made me gasp realising it's a Vampire but what is he doing in our territory, that too alone or maybe there are more.
I flinched before consciously turning around as a thumping sound echoed in my room.
A sigh of relief washed over me as I find Lily, my cat on the table staring directly at me with her big doe eyes while the lamp which was supposed to be on table is now on the floor.
She mewled before jumping towards the bed.I turned around to look back at the tree where I spotted the vampire earlier only to find no figure on it.
Was I hallucinating? I looked around for a few more minutes but there was nothing suspicious so I walked inside my room and grabbed the lamp before carefully placing it on the table then dragged my feets towards the bed and plopped myself on the soft mattress letting out a hum of satisfaction.
A soft smile appeared on my lips after seeing Lily snuggling to the pillow.My eyelids turned heavy and I soon fall asleep.
..
I rushed out of my house in a hurry not forgetting to take my bag along with me as I am running late for School.
"Scarlett get in , I'll drop you" I stopped on my tracks after hearing a familiar voice and tilt my head to my left to find Marcus ,Beta of the pack.
He removed his sunglasses revealing his jet black eyes which stared at me amusingly since I'm not the type of girl to be late for school.He is very friendly that it never feels awkward.I nodded before hopping into the car.
"You didn't have a good sleep?" He asked, my brows furrowed at his words.A chuckle left his lips after scanning my confused expression.
"You look pale" He remarked.I watched how his muscles flexes everytime we took a turn.He has a white t-shirt on matching with ripped skinny jeans.His features are eye catching and almost every unmated she-wolf had develop a crush on him but to their dismay ,he had find his mate when he turned 18 and now they are happily married.
"Scarlett, get straight home after school.Don't go anywhere especially in woods without anyone beside you" I froze, his voice this time is serious more like a command.
He opened the car door for me.Standing at least 6feet tall which makes his aura more stronger and intimidating.Perfect for his title ,Beta.
"Okay" I said nonchalantly very well aware that there must be something going on in our pack.And now I couldn't help but to recall the scene I witnessed last night.
The thought itself ran shivers down my spine.Vampires and werewolves doesn't have a good history which is why no pack has given permission for vampires to enter the territory and vice versa.If they ever came face to face then it's only going to bring disaster.
I bid him bye before entering the School building.I directly made my way to the class where my friend exactly would be.
As I assumed there he is sitting alone ,far away from the students , completely engrossed in the book.He looks so calm and soft with those glasses on while his geyes are fixed on the book which makes me envy him at how he is able to concentrate in the midst of chaos.
He didn't even noticed my presence until I snapped my fingers in front of his face, earning his attention.
"Hey" I greeted while pulling the chair to take a seat beside him.
"Hi" He smiled before adjusting his glasses.
"Look at the nerd!" The boys laughed who walked passed by our table.I greeted my teeth in anger at their unwanted comments.
I slammed my palm on the table earning everyone's attention including the group of boys who laughed earlier.My dark eyes stared right into the pair of brown orbs which held fear.He gulped not being able to contain the eye contact and looked away.
"Sorry Herrick" He apologized lowly and walked away followed by his friends.
"Stop scaring them" Herrick laughed.I shrugged my shoulders before crossing my arms against my chest.
I have observed Herrick since middle School and he is a very quiet and reserved guy.But others bully him reasoning it as his weakness.I used to get same treatment from other students but mostly from students of my old Pack.
They spread rumors which became reason for my loneliness.It changed when they graduated since they were seniors and my life take a drastic turn which is why I came to Crystal Moon Pack and in one year I trained myself with the help of Alpha who is kindest and understanding.
I still remember the day I got into a fight when I stood against my bullies.Since then they all feared me and my personality changed as well resulting in them tagging me from 'weak link' to 'Cold Hearted'
In all the mess , me and Herrick clicked together.A rogue left him near the pack border when he was just a pup and since then Alpha has taken care of him which I got to know after proving myself a good friend to Herrick.
He is my only friend and vice versa.One thing is still weird that even after them having a wolf ,I still win over them which is really strange since I never shifted after turning 15.That was one of the reason for them to bully me.
"Did you notice the tight security in our pack?" I asked Herrick who was again engrossed in his book.
He placed the book aside and turned his whole attention on me with his hands resting on the table.
"Yes I noticed ,Alpha added few more warriors to our pack border and everyone is on high alert.Last week we had rogue attack but this time it's not only about rogues.I have never seen Alpha that stressed, Some danger is definitely around our pack and maybe for other packs as well.Alpha mind linked every pack members to not go further in the woods or roam out alone.We will be informed once situation is under control"
I nodded after hearing his every word attentively.
"So this is why Beta Marcus told me to not roam around alone" I whispered which Herrick catched with his wolf hearing.
"You are capable of getting the position of 3rd in command" I complimented.My brows ceased as he just shrugged.
"Are you not eating these days?You look so pale" He remarked ,his eyes hooded with concern for me.
"I didn't feel like eating" I shrugged.He opened his mouth to say something but shut it as the teacher walked in the class.
During break -
"Have you seen the New Alpha ,he is so handsome"
"His voice is so sexy.I wonder how he sounds in bed gosh I can't even imagine how good he would sound"
Some girls walked passed by me while giggling and squealing to themselves. I almost puked after hearing their conversation.
