People were laughing and chatting until I came along. They all stopped and stared at me. I looked down at the floor, silently hopping they wouldn't hit me for interrupting their conversations. I squirmed slightly under their intense gazes, but refused to meet any of them, so I kept my eyes on the floor.
I felt someone walking to me and stiffened immediately, just in case someone tried to hit me. They placed a warm hand on my shoulder, and I almost flinched at the contact.
I slowly lifted up my head and looked into the person's eyes. It was a beautiful dark brown colour. I took in the girl's appearance completely. She was stunning with her dark brown eyes and dark brown hair. She seemed to be about the same age as me, 16 years old, but she was a little taller.
She smiled brightly at me before practically shouting out her name, "Heeeey, I'm Emma."
"Hey," I whispered shyly.
"So what's your name?" Everyone was so silent, that you could hear a pin drop but as Emma spoke, everyone went back to laughing and chatting or whatever they were doing.
"Sophia," I said a bit louder this time because she had a warmth around her that made me feel like I belonged for once in my life. She seemed so friendly that I couldn't help but start being myself with her.
"So I'm guessing you're our new pack mate?"
"Yep," I smiled, feeling a lot more confident.
"That's amazing! I've got a new best friend, but we need to go shopping for you," she screeched, looking up and down at my huge outfit, even though it was an average-sized t-shirt for a girl my age, it was way too big for me.
I glanced down at her and noticed how perfectly her bright pink tank-top clung onto her curves and enhanced her assets. Her light blue skinny jeans showed her perfectly toned legs and her heeled combat boots boosted her height slightly. All in all, she looked amazing.
"Yes, but first, we need to get some meat on those bones," Alpha said walking next to me.
Again, I tried my hardest not to flinch, because I didn't want to be this weak little girl anymore. I was sick and tired of feeling like that poor defensive little girl: who everyone thought they could stomp over.
I smiled weakly at him as well and nodded. What can I say? I was actually hungry for once.
"Alpha, do you know where my car is? I parked it near that forest," I asked.
"So have you met your mate?" she asked. Anger coursed through my veins as she mentioned 'mate'. He was probably sticking his dick up some girl right now.
I felt immense pain in my arms. It felt like it was breaking. My body was burning, I felt as though I was literally on fire. Then it started on my legs.
I screamed murder and tried to calm myself down. I took in deep breaths to calm myself down but screamed at the top of my lungs again when I felt it on my other arm.
"She's shifting," I heard someone said, even though I barely understood them at all.
I vaguely felt being lifted up and being moved. Light sweat coated my forehead as my temperature increased. I continued screaming as the it got excrutiatingly painful. I wanted to die that moment.
"I don't know if she's going to make it," I heard someone say.
The rest was a blur. My whole eyes were shut, so I couldn't see anyone. All I could hear were loud voices, they were hurting my head. It was too loud. Too noisy. The words were getting jumbled up in my head. I couldn't understand what they were saying; I just felt the pain taking over every bit of my body.
