(March 1, 2016)

    I came back to the Pack House. Just like last time, everyone stared stared at me and whispered to each other. I was too far away to hear what they were saying, but I could still see them. Delila was also with me at this time, but as usual I don't mind.

    We got to Dad's Office, and he was doing usual Alpha work, or at least that's what I think. "Hey." I say.

    He looked at me and and smiled, Well, welcome back Meisei! Glad to see you're back. I'm sure you will be happy to hear, I am resigning from being Alpha. You and Delila will be Lunas of our pack!" He replies.

    "Ok? And, why exactly would you do this? Am I even old enough? What about school?"

    "You'll be fine, and don't worry about school, you'll be dropping out, soon anyway. Both of you."

    "I WON'T drop out! I plan on going to college to become a counselor. I would like to help people with Anxiety, Depression, Anger, and things like that. I refuse to be Luna of any Pack. Now, I'm leaving. Good bye."

    "I already signed the papers to resign. You are going to quit school. If you don't become Luna, what am I going to do?"

    "NOT my problem. I'm staying in school. Good. Bye." And with that, I left.

    Delila and I made it back to the house, but nothing at all was peaceful...

    "We could've been Respected! We could've been Lunas! Why in the world did you turn the offer down?! Why did you refuse it?!" Delila yelled.

    "Because, Delila, we NEED to stay in school. We can't just drop out! School is important, and I will not be Luna, at least, not right now. I'm staying in school, and if you won't, fine." I said as calmly as I could.

    "Why won't you quit school? It's a stupid h*ll-hole anyway."

    "Because I LOVE school, and I'd like to get a good job."

    "Being Luna IS a good job!"

    "But do I get amounts of money? No! Do I even get money at all? NOPE! I WANT TO GET A GOOD JOB THAT PAYS!"

    "Fine. You want a job that badly, and you don't even care what I want. I Delila Dawkins reject you, Meisei Barton as my mate."

    All I could say was "Okay." And "Get out of my house, now."

    And we went our separate ways.

March 8, 2016

    It's been a week now, and I have barely ate anything. In the past seven days I've only eaten, what, three meals. I am beginning to be depressed, I can tell already, I've been depressed before, the doctors said I was doing fine, so they took me off of it.

    It's only Monday but I need to call Adam, to tell him everything. And when I say everything I mean everything, werewolf related at least. I need someone that I can lean on.

    "H-hi Adam." I called crying

    "What's wrong Meisei?"

    "I-I can't explain on th-the phone. M-may I speak to y-you in p-person?"

    "Of course! Come on over to the church, I'll meet you at the back door by the offices."

    "O-okay, bye."

    So I ran over to the church as fast as Trinidy would let me. I got to the edge of the woods in about half the time. I shifted back to human and ran as fast as I could.

    'Are you sure you want to do this?' Trinidy asked me.

    'I'm positive, are you ready to shift if Adam doesn't believe me? I asked.'

    'Ready when you are.'

    I head over to the office doors, and Adam is right there at the doors. I try to hide it, but he can obviously see the tears the are hanging in my eyes. We head into his office.

    "What's wrong Meisei?" He said

    "I have a few things to tell you." I said suddenly felt extremely nervous. "First off, I need you to tell me if you believe me or not on the first situation."

    "Ok, go ahead. I promise I will tell the truth."

    I took a deep breath in. "I am a werewolf." And exhaled.

    "I don't know why you would tell me this, but I don't think I believe you. I don't believe they even exist." Ouch...

    "Sh-should I prove it?"

    "If you feel the need."

    I closed my eyes and I shifted. I open one eye, and see him staring. I quickly shift back. I start to cry but then quickly stop myself.

    "Wow. Ok, so you are, and you do exist, sorry for doubting you."

    "It's fine, but you can't tell anyone. In fact I wasn't supposed to tell you, but I needed to in order for what I need to talk about."

    So I told him about mates, and that Delila was mine, and that she, too, was a werewolf. I told him about packs, Alphas, and Lunas. I told him about my "father" and how he tried to force me to be a Luna with Delila. About God talking to me in my dream, literally everything I could think of about werewolves. Even about me not eating properly for the past week.

    I looked at him, and he had tears in his eyes. "I'm sorry, I can't do anything to help you." He says.

    "Well, Adam, I don't know what to do anymore, and I'm losing a lot of hope, there must be something you can do!" I cry.

    "If there is something I can do, I don't know what it is. What do you want me to do?"

    "Adopt me." I say before I even thought it. I immediately regret it. He stares at me in disbelief. He's only about twenty-four, not married yet, but has a girlfriend. He obviously has no kids. "Never mind. I'll just let myself out now. I'm sorry for wasting your time."

And with that, I left.
