Introduction


I never thought that love would ever come to me in my life time! The only person or people who have ever loved me are now deceased. Which are my beloved parents, they died in a car crash when I was 18 and in a performing arts school. My mother’s name was Rayne, my brother's name was Todd, and my father’s was Larry! My name is Lorrayne King, but most of my friends call me Rayne like my mom use to! I live in Seattle, Washington! I have a little condo in the city. If my parents were still alive, they would kill me because I’m from Athens, Georgia and, for some odd reason, they never liked Washington. Well anyway, this is my love story!


Chapter 1:Love Dreamers

It was a typical Friday night and I was out with my best friend Wanda. We had been out at an old friend’s place for a birthday celebration. Wanda was going on and on about this guy she met at the club last week. ”Oh my gosh! He was so hot! I mean, out of nowhere he comes up to me and says ‘Hi! I’m Eric! Want to dance?’ and takes me by the hand.” Wanda looked as if she was dumb-founded. I have always listened to Wanda when she tells me about someone she just met and then have to listen again about the bad break-up. Wanda and I have been friends ever since my 2nd day here in Seattle.

I was spending the day at first beach walking along in the nice sand looking up at the sky, when I bumped into someone’s arm! I looked up to see that it was a girl with pretty reddish-brown hair and bright hazel eyes. Her skin tone was paler than mine. I figured she hadn't been in the sun long enough or something! Her expression looked as if she was examining my features also. I decided to apologize and introduce myself. “Hi! I’m so sorry! I should have been watching where I was going!My name is Lorrayne!” she giggled and said, “That’s okay I wasn’t paying attention either. I’m Wanda!” she had the voice of a teenager, but in a nice way. she lifted her right hand to shake mine. And from that day forward we were best friends. I will never forget that day!

The rest of what Wanda was saying was like a blur that I put to the back of my head. I was thinking about when I would find the right guy to sweep me off my feet and crap like that! Some of the dancers from the studio, where Wanda and I work, have set me up on blind dates. Most of them turned out right at the beginning, but went downhill as the night went on. Some of the men that I went out with were either disrespectful or just not my type and I would pretend I was going to the bathroom when I was really making a run for it! My friends would always get a kick out of the stories I’d tell them.


We were still walking the streets. I started to feel tired. “I’m starting to feel a little drowsy, Wanda! Do you mind if we head back to the car early?” I asked, sounding slightly sleepy. Wanda is always worried about me. “Well you do look like you need a good nights sleep! C’mon! Let’s go!” she put her arm on my shoulder to support my weight while we headed back to the car. Wanda drove a 2010 honda CR-V. It was very nice and the seats were comfortable!


As we rode down the streets of Seattle, I watched as we passed all the nice buildings and street lights! Wanda must be lucky because we didn’t get stopped by a red light or pulled over by the police for going over the speed limit! We finally got to my condo! Wanda just dropped me off and didn’t leave until she saw that I was inside. As I went inside I reached for the lightswitch and turned on the lights to my living room.I took off my black leather jacket and put it in the coat closet.


I didn’t really eat at the party, so I headed to the kitchen hoping to find something to eat! Unfortunately, I forgot to go grocery shopping this weekend! So I just grabbed a bowl of cereal and went back to the living room and watched the news.

"A family of three was murdered earlier today in Olympia. The police have no lead on who did it. There are no finger or footprints to identify the suspect or thing that did it.The investigators are asking if the neighbors heard any noises or anything that seemed out of the ordinary! But so far they are out of luck." the news reporter ended the information that the police would only allow the public to know.

I turned the channel quickly. I didn’t want to hear about people being murdered anymore. I ended up watching my favorite movie, The Ugly Truth! It was amusing!

In the middle of the movie, I looked at the watch on my wrist. It was 10:30. So I turned off the TV and went to my bedroom. My walls were baby blue and the furniture was modern. My comforter was a mixture of blue, white, and a light brown! I took a nice shower and put on my pajama pants and v-neck t-shirt. I crawled into my bed, turned off my bedside lamp, and fell asleep quickly.


Jared

I was at the beach, watching the tides, when all of a sudden I hear someone approaching. They were calling my name, but I didn’t recognize until I let my hearing go out a little farther. It was Adam. I got up and met him before he appeared from the east side of the beach and out of the bushes. I was already not in the mood to be bothered with. “What do you want Adam?” I asked. Despite the cool weather, Adam was shirtless. “Tim wants to-“At that moment a howl broke off somewhere deep in the woods. “To see you right now!” he finished. I didn’t ask why. When the alpha of the pack orders you to do something, no questions are to be asked and crap like that.

Oh. Did I forget to mention that i'm a WEREWOLF. Not the type you about read in books or the fake ones you see in movies. Well that's what i am. Atleast I can change whenever I want to. It suits me just fine!

Without another word I ran past Adam towards the dark woods. I let the heat run through my body and in no time I was in my werewolf form, running like the speed of light! I could hear all of my pack member’s thoughts. 'Jared we need to talk now! Meet me in the meadow!

' Tim demanded to me. I dug my paws deeper into the earth to run faster. As I ran I listened to other thoughts. 'Hey Jared, when you’re done with Tim, dad said to come home when you can!'

It was Todd who told me that. I’ve been dreading going home all day. I didn’t want to deal with my mom and stepfather. Todd is my stepbrother and he forgets that I don’t like it when he calls his dad, my dad. 'Whatever Todd! And he is NOT my dad!

' I growled back at him. He read my thoughts and saw that I didn’t want to be bothered with. I could no longer hear Todd’s thoughts. He must have shifted back into his human form. I was thankful for that. Although I don’t get along with his dad, I’ll give the kid some credit! He’s not that bad. I wish he was my real brother. Maybe my life would suck less.

I finally got to the meadow and waited for Tim to arrive. I looked up at the moon. It was beautiful and silver as it looked down on earth. After a few minutes of watching the moon, I heard Tim approach.

I didn’t look at him for 2 minutes. Then I broke the silence. 'What do you want Tim?

' He seemed calm and reasonable at first. Then he finally looked away from the dark sky to look in my direction. 'We need to head toward Seattle for battle! There’s a vampire who just killed a family of three! And we have to kill it as soon as possible!'

When he spoke it was a command! I could hear the double alpha voice in it!

I thought he’d lost his mind. Whatever’s going on in Seattle is none of our business! 'But Tim, whatever is going on is not our problem. We’re just wasting our time even thinking about going up there!'

I thought at him. We couldn’t possibly go all the way to Seattle just to kill a leech for what it does for fun. We only protect our tribe and loved ones! Although the thought of getting away from my stepfather was a pretty great idea! Tim could read my thoughts before I could hide them from him. 'So let’s get moving then! Start gathering up the rest of the pack after you get done with your dad- I mean stepfather!

' Even Tim was calling him my dad! What is wrong with these wolves today? Don’t even care about my feelings. 'Fine! But don’t ever call him my dad again! My father is dead! Have some damn sympathy! For crying out loud!'

I ran back towards my mom’s house without letting him say anything else!

It only took me less than four minutes to get home! I quickly shifted back and put on my gym shorts! I had no shirt to put on. I walked toward the house and stopped at the door with my hand on the doorknob! I could hear my mom and her husband talking about me behind my back! “I think that you and Jared should bond more, Larry! This has gone way too far and you are going to fix it!” My mom was finally yelling at the loser. It’s about time. “Fine I will talk to Jared! Speaking of which, Jared why don't you join us!” I guess he could hear me, standing outside the door, like an idiot.


I took a deep breath, opened the door, and went inside unwillingly. They were standing in the middle of the kitchen, facing the door, where I stood. Larry was the first one to speak to me. “Hello Jared! We need to talk- in private!” That last part was a hint for my mom. In other words, he was pretty much telling her to get lost! I closed the door behind me, while my mom went to her room. Without a word, I set at the kitchen table. Everything in our house was up to date. Money is not a problem, ever since Larry and Todd came into the picture!

Larry was a very fit man. He looked as though he worked out every day, but he doesn't. Larry had black hair, but in the sun it was a reddish color. He has blue eyes which by the way was really strange for a man of his age. I think he said that he was. . . in his late 30's or early 40's. Something like that.
