Delilah's P.O.V.

I sat down looking at the floor and minding my own business. Everybody was here because of the election and I couldn't care less. The entire building was full, so there was no chance of me going anywhere.

"Delilah? What's wrong?" I turned and saw Addison there with Bree.

"I lost the necklace. I let the wolves down. My mates rejected me." I explained.

They gasped before hugging me and I appreciated the gesture, but could see anger in Addison's eyes.

"I'll show them how dangerous I can be for hurting you. I have silver chains." she told me.

I chuckled before shaking my head. I always loved how protective she was of me, since I was a month younger than her.

The sound of the Z-Alarm going off made me jump and stand up with my friends.

"The Z-Alarm?" I asked.

"Attention, attention. Monster activity at Seabrook Power." a voice said. The werewolves! They were in trouble!

"It's the werewolves. We need to help them!" I explained.

"Bree, Addy, will you help?" I asked asked.

"I'm in. Always." Bree nodded. "Me too." my sister replied.

"We can't do this alone. We need to rally the Z-team." I explained.

"Right." Bree agreed.

"No. Actually, we're gonna need everyone." I explained.

"Ay, ay, captain." Addy said with a smile.

"Let's go!" I said as we ran off.

The three of us managed to gather the cheerleaders, students, and zombies as we made a run for Seabrook Power. Even though they rejected me and were angry, my mates were still my mates. Nothing was going to change it, even if we never speak again.

When we got there, I saw the werewolves handcuffed and some sort of gas in the air. They were struggling and I could feel Willa, Wynter, and Wyatt's fear through the mate bond.

"I failed you. They'll destroy the moonstone. They'll destroy us." Willa said.

"No!" I shouted.

Dale and Mr. Necrodopolis looked at me in shock and confusion. "Delilah?"

Delilah: The world has gone crazy
And no one seems to listen

Addison: Gotta step in, no more maybes
And stop the demolition

Delilah: Is it hope or fear? Look in the mirror
Everything we built is coming down

The zombies came out, being led by Eliza and Zara and I smiled.

Eliza: No more hesitation
It's time we start to realize
With all this separation

Zara: Silence is still taking sides
So use your voice, make a choice
And tell me, are you standing with the crowd?

All: Oh
This is a declaration
Oh
Of a new generation
It's now or never, we're in this together
We'll fight through the highs and the lows
No, we won't break
We're more than flesh and bone

Ay-e-ay-e-ay-ay-ay
We say no more bad blood
No more bad blood
Ay-e-ay-e-ay-ay-ay
No way they can stop us
No, they can't stop us
Ay-e-ay-e-ay-ay-ay
We say no more bad blood
No more bad blood
Ay-e-ay-e-ay-ay-ay
No way they can stop us
No, they can't stop us

I looked to my left and saw Zed walk from the crowd of zombies and he was looking at me with regret and hope in his eyes.

Zed: History changes, but we lost the pages we wrote
When you lose direction
Can't see the reflection you know
We came from the bottom then became the problem
Now everything's out of control
So hey, are you with me?
Let's go!

I met up with him and we fist-bumped with a smile on my face.

All: Oh
This is a declaration
Oh
Of a new generation
It's now or never
We're in this together
We'll fight through the highs and the lows
No, we won't break
We're more than flesh and bone

Once we finished singing and dancing, Zed walked forward to speak to his dad. I was silently hoping he would have second thoughts.

"You've got to stop the demolition, Dad. I know how hard you worked to get this job. But, if it's gonna hurt the werewolves, you need to stop it." he pleaded.

I looked at my mates and I could see the looks on their faces. I shook my head and turned my attention back to Zed before walking to him, holding his hand.

I swear I heard Wyatt growl, but that was the least of my worries.

"Please stop the demo." I pleaded, looking in between the two zombies I considered family as well.

"You're right. Shut it down. Stop the denotation. Tomorrow, when it's safe, you'll find what you're looking for, but right now, you all go home!" Zevon announced.

Everybody cheered and I saw the werewolves getting their cuffs removed. Zed lifted me up and spun me around, the both of us laughing. I hugged Addison tightly as she squealed. Eliza and Zara came over with smiles and I hugged them tightly.

"I can't believe we did it! The pack will survive now!" I said.

Zed and Addison grabbed my hands and we all ran outside. Them and Zara stayed by my side, the four of us smiling as we walked down the alleyway.

"We did it! We stopped the demo!" I said.

Zed looked down and I could tell something wasn't right.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I'm going to lose the election. Which means I can't take Addison to Prawn." he explained.

"That's okay, Zed. We cannot go to the Prawn together." I replied. "All of us."

Zed took something out of his pocket and I looked, seeing it was my moonstone necklace. I gasped, relieved.

"He found it!" I said happily. I hugged him tightly. "Thank you."

I pulled away and he had a look of regret etched on his face. Concern grew inside me as I placed a hand on his shoulder.

"I took it. I stole it when you weren't looking." he confessed.

What? It was him all along? He was the reason why my mates rejected me? Why I doubted myself?

"I thought I lost it. I questioned myself." I started. "I got rejected, I got hurt." I replied. I could feel my mates being hit with guilt and sadness when all this went down.

"Delilah, I'm sorry. I was afraid that if you turned into a wolf, I'd lose you. My baby sister." he explained.

"You don't get to make that choice for me!" I argued.

At this point, I could feel anger and pain boiling up inside me. After pouring all my pain to him and telling him about the past, hellish 10 years I have lived, he decided to do this? Does he love watching me get hurt?

"But, a werewolf?" he argued back.

"I finally find where I belong and you try to steal that from me?! Why would I ever be your best friend after what you did?" I asked. "I told yo about all the pain I went through. I spent 10 years suffering and trying to find who I was and my supposed 'best friend' just couldn't support me. I thought you were different, Zed, but you're just like everybody else that's ever hurt me."

I said the last part, looking at my mates and their heads hung.

I rolled my eyes and snatched the necklace form Zed's hand. I turned around and looked at the full moon in the distance.

'The time has finally come. Here we go, Mom.' I thought to myself.

I put the necklace on as it glowed. Before I knew it, a blue light surrounded me and I saw my nails become claws and felt myself transform into a werewolf. Tattoos appeared on my arms, my eyes flashed yellow, and my ears became pointy. When the light was gone, I smiled at the result.

"Omg, you're the Great Alpha!" Addison said.

The werewolves howled with joy as Zara spoke up. "Love the new look!"

I laughed before the moment was cut short with one of the workers running up in a panic mode. "Boss! Boss! We got a problem!"

"What?" he asked.

"The remote shorted out and now the detonation timer's running!" the worker exclaimed a she tried to turn it off.

"Well, turn it off!" Zara exclaimed. "I can't!" the man replied.

"Oh, no!" Zed's dad said before we all ran.

We arrived to see the power plant exploding and I gasped, seeing it crumble down. I saw tears forming in Zara's eyes.

"What have they done?" Willa asked.

My breath hitched and my moonstone glowed a sickly green. I coughed, as did the rest of the werewolves.

"Delilah?" Zed asked as he held me up, along with Zara.

"We need to get her home now!" Addison said.

"No! She's one of us now! She needs to come to the den." Wyatt said.

"Shut up. You have no say in this since you rejected her. Useless fleabags. You're so lucky she still loves you three. Come on, let's go home." Zara said as she and Zed helped me walk. Addison was following behind us.

"Delilah, we're sorry!" I heard Wynter shout before I fell to my knees. Zed ended up picking me up bridal style and carrying me.
