followed. It was a nice
house. It was bigger than it appeared.
    “ How is your mother? I
actually delivered you. I delivered almost all the werewolves in
the pack,” she said happily as she moved around the
kitchen.
    “ She’s good,” I said
dryly.
    “ Uh oh, are you not happy
with her?” Maggie asked. She was easy to talk to. She made me
comfortable.
    “ She sent me here and I am
not fitting in very well,” I said quietly as I sat down at the
small table.
    “ I am sure it will get
better. You are just young. It was a mistake on your mother’s part
not to let you grow up in your pack. Now you are trying to adjust
to all the rules. It is much easier to go from pack to lone wolf
than vice versa,” she said as she offered me a cup of
tea.
    I nodded and accepted the
cup.
    She watched me for a second. “Well you
are a strong little wolf. You will figure it out,” she said
smiling.
    “ Why because I beat this
stupid necklace?” I asked as I pulled on the silver
chain.
    “ That’s part of it. Now I am
sure there is a boy. Which one is he?” she asked smiling as she
took her seat.
    I scoffed. “One that doesn’t want me,”
I said softly.
    She waved her hand. “I don’t believe
that for a minute. It’s obvious you have someone you have been
intimate with on your mind.”
    “ He is stuck on himself
because he is the pack leader,” I said annoyed.
    She smiled. “You must be talking about
my Dominic,” she said happily.
    I looked at her a little surprised.
“Your, Dominic?”
    She nodded and stood as she walked over
and retrieved a picture. “Dominic is my grandson. He is a good boy
even though he is difficult,” she said smiling as she handed me the
picture.
    I looked down at it. It was Dominic as
a little boy. He was cute and it made me smile a little. “He’s
cute,” I said and handed the picture back to her.
    She nodded. “I am sure you two will
work things out.”
    I took a sip of my tea while she put
the picture back. “How come you live so far from town?” I asked
changing the subject.
    She shrugged and smiled. “I like the
silence. As you can imagine during this time of year there are a
lot of screaming women giving birth. It is nice to just be alone
sometimes.”
    “ I bet,” I said and
smiled.
    “ You should come by when you
are bored. You could help me with the gardens and I could teach you
a thing or two.” Her offer seemed genuine and it wasn’t like I had
much else to do.
    “ I think I will,” I said
watching her. I was actually kind of happy to have a
distraction.
    She smiled obviously glad I accepted.
“Tomorrow night then, come early I am sure we will have a birth or
two soon.”
    I nodded as I stood. “That sounds fun,
I should get home, but I will see you tomorrow night.”
    She nodded and showed me to the door
and I continued my trek home.
    I walked in the door of my dad’s house
and I could hear talking. I walked to the living room and my father
was talking to Dominic. I turned to leave hoping I hadn’t been
noticed yet.
    “ Kylie, I need to talk to
you,” Dominic said obviously seeing me.
    I turned and looked at him. “What is
it?” I asked looking from him to my father then back.
    Dominic glanced at my father. “I have
to go, I’ll be back a little later,” my father said quickly and
hurried out.
    “ I didn’t mean to be so
rough earlier,” Dominic said quietly.
    I smiled even though I was furious.
“You do a lot of things you don’t mean, don’t you?”
    He watched me for a second obviously
not sure what to say. “I’m sorry for misleading you and taking
advantage. You are new to this and I keep forgetting that. You and
I cannot be a couple. I know you don’t understand and it is not a
reflection on whether I like you or not because I do like you. I
have a responsibility to the pack to pick a strong and responsible
mate and you are just too young.”
    I nodded pushing away that painful
ache. I didn’t know why I cared so much. “I get it, can you
