Her brain hurt with the amount of concentration she put into what she was doing. If she made the wrong move, everything would blow up and she’d be in a gigantic clusterfuck. Sweat beaded at her brow as she pulled the strap and taped it onto the package. There, it was finished. Luna had to be changed and she didn’t like it when you did that, you had to do it when she was either asleep or she felt in a good mood. Which was not very often. The child’s fiery red hair matched her temper, which was expected to happen from the Red Luna. Her eyes, though, startled everyone. Even the members of the pack. Her eyes shined a resilient green, which shone even in the dark. She was an advanced child, which was to be expected from a werewolf, especially an Alpha cub, meaning she could stand on her own. She hadn’t mastered walking or talking just yet, but Sarah knew she planned to do that. Soon and within time, seemed to be the way of small little Rosa’s life. She just watched how things panned out, always cautious. Then, when the time seemed most opportune, she’d strike. Deadly, silent, and cute. Something nobody ever expects, which is why Sarah always admired after Luna. A small 3 month old child, and yet she looked up to her as she would her mother. Her mother

…. She’d never known her mother, she’d just been handed over to her father with a note stuck on her forehead. The note said that if he would’ve been able to keep it in his pants long enough he wouldn’t have had this problem. ‘This problem’ being her. It hadn’t hurt her feelings, she hadn’t been destroyed, because she hadn’t missed out on anything. Her father had been her 2-in-1 parent. He was strict, yet fun, he was carefree and stubborn. He was amazing. The key word being ‘was’. Her father was killed when some rogues who decided to have some fun. Rogues were terrible, terrible creatures, they gave the werewolves a bad name. They gave the hunters a reason to hunt their kind, murder their men, rape their women, kill their children. LunaRosa’s eyes peeled open and she shrilled out her anger for her sleep being disturbed.
“Shit.” She cursed under her breath as the little child’s face brightened with anger.
“Shh, shh. Rosa please stop crying, your mommy is actually going to snap and kill you.” She hissed as she put the child’s face in the crook of her neck and bounced around the small nursery. The pack had moved to a new town, the hunter problem had gotten too serious and they couldn’t risk risking the pack. They’d moved to the neighboring state, the pack Alpha there had agreed to take them in. of course Thomas would still be Alpha, he had the blood in him, as would be Molly. But they just wouldn’t be… The

Alpha’s. But the new Alpha and his mate seemed nice. They opened the pack with open arms, everyone fit in great. More people had found their mate, which was great, and there were more children here. Most of them were under the age of 3, but some of them were around Samantha’s age. Luna screamed and cried her head off and Sarah groaned. Molly was going to kill her. Everyone else was up, except for Molly and Thomas, they were worn out from caring for Luna and just wanted to sleep in. Guess Luna thought otherwise. The door banged open and Carol stormed in.
“You, little child, are going to give your mother and father sleep. You’re going to give Alpha Jeb and Luna Penny a break from the screeching. And you’re going to shut the hell up!” She yelled and Luna stopped. She still made a few murmurs but looked at Carol with wide eyes.
“There, see how peaceful it is without you crying your head?” Carol asked and moved to take Rosa. Sarah huffed and gave her over. Rosa looked entranced by Carol’s golden locks, that was the only reason she wanted to go over there. That was what she told herself, it wasn’t her horrible way with children. Just ‘cause you tell yourself that babydoll,

her wolf drawled in his deep southern accent, don’t mean it’s true.

When she first heard her wolf’s voice she was frightened. Her wolf was a male, and from the sound of it, a handsome one at that. He was the reason she’d stayed a virgin, he told her the true intention of men and she was disgusted at the thoughts of them. She’d just wait for her mate to come along, he wouldn’t be like the others. He would want her for her kindness, generosity, and love for everybody and everything. That’s right, and if he doesn’t I’ll rip his balls off for hurting you,

her wolf growled and she smiled internally.
“That’s fine, I didn’t like you anyway.” Sarah sneered playfully at Rosa and stuck her tongue out. She made a little happy sound and Sarah’s heart spun around. Yay, I made her happy,

she thought happily and flounced her way out the room. She bounced into a hard body as she closed the door behind her and she groaned internally.
“Oh, hey Jared. Were you looking for Carol, ‘cause she’s in there with Rosa-“ Sarah said lightly, desperately trying not to put any of her anger in her tone. The first night they’d been here, he very blatantly made a claim on her in front of all the men. She wasn’t some sort of object to be won, taken, or stashed. She was a human being, well not exactly, and she deserved to have her choice. And her choice was her mate, which Jared was not. He swooped his dirty blond hair out of his eyes and smiled down at her, showing one shiny sharpened canine.
“No, actually I was looking for you. I wanted to see if you wanted to go to the beach with me on Saturday?” He asked and Sarah ha to fight for a frown not to fit on her face. He was still trying after 2 months, it was actually quite funny. She crossed her arms and scoffed.
“It’s the middle of October, the lake will be freezing, with or without body temperature.” She said amusingly and he frowned.
“Hadn’t thought about that.” He muttered and looked down at the carpeted floor.
“Thought so, now if there isn’t anything else I have to go-“
“You do too much, you know that?” He said suddenly and Sarah widened her eyes.
“N-no I don’t. I do just enough, everybody needs something and I’m there to help. Now if you’ll excuse me-“
“I think you need a break from helping people. You’re always flying from one place to the next, never off your feet, never taking a break, you just… do. You don’t even think about what you’re doing.” He said, narrowing his eyes in confusion.
“Look, just because I want to help other people doesn’t mean I’m some sort of pushover. I do say no, if the event so happens that I need to. And I relax plenty, maybe you didn’t get it when I said this 2 months ago, so I’m gonna say it again. You and I, will never happen. Not in this lifetime. So stop advancing me, stop trying to go out with me, stop trying to soften me, and leave me the hell alone. Or I swear to the mother moon I will gut you where you stand with my pinky. Got it?” She snarled at him, backing him into the wall opposite the nursery door. He nodded jerkily and she stepped back, taking in a deep cleansing breath. Just like daddy taught you.
“Good, now. I have to help Luna Penny with the kids, sounds like their about to start lunch. Have a nice day Jared!" She chirped happily and walked down the long hallway to the stairs.

Samantha stayed at her hip as she helped make tuna sandwiches. Sammy was having a hard time making friends, none of the other kids could understand her situation. Sammy’s mom and dad abandoned her at a carnival because she was a werewolf. She wasn’t born one, but made one. Only one person could make you a werewolf, your mate. She said her foster brother did it, Jake Harris, the ones the elders were looking for. They knew that Jake didn’t have to change Sammy, they could’ve led a perfectly normal relationship as they grew. Molly’s mother was proof of that, she was a human when she was impregnated with Molly and her pregnancy went fine.
“Tuna really smells.” Sammy said, pinching her nose.
“Not as much as you do.” Mark mumbled as he passed by and she stuck her foot out, indiscreetly, making mark trip.
“Oopsie. Mark you really have to watch we’re you’re going. You might really hurt yourself one day.” Sammy said, sounding every bit contrite. She smiled, and Mark smiled too, as she helped him up.
“Whatever brat, just watch your back.” He said, still grinning, as he ruffled her little blond head making her pout.
“I can’t it’s behind me.” She retorted as he walked away then turned to look back at Sarah. Her cute little face was pink and pretty, which she tried to hide from Sarah who merely looked away and finished up the sandwiches.
“Wanna help bring this to the table?” She asked and Sammy nodded, grateful for the distraction. The other kids settled down once the sandwiches were in front of them which made Penny relax. Penny was a nice Luna. She had long black hair that reached the middle of her back and a small petite frame that made her look innocent. All though she was nothing but, some nights Sarah would awaken to the sound of her and Jeb making love and, although you wouldn’t believe it, Penny was a screamer. She’d scream things at the top her lungs, explicit thins that would make Carol blush. Carol was the dirtiest person she knew! Penny sighed and walked to Sarah, a gigantic smile on her face.
“Thanks, I would’ve never gotten through that alone.” Her childlike voice said, Sarah smiled at her and nodded once.
“No problem Luna, you need help with anything, I’m there.” She said with a little head dip that Penny giggled at.
“Sarah, come get this child from hell!!!” Carol screeched and Sarah stiffened. Carol and Rosa always seemed to be at it, even though Rosa was a baby and couldn’t really do anything to make Carol angry. Carol said, in front of everyone, that “they eyes say it all, and that one has untrustworthy eyes, like she would stab you in the back then ask to be your friend later,” crazy, yes. But when you think about it, Carol wasn’t called Carrie for nothing.
“I have to go assist my pack member, excuse me Luna.” She said then bolted up the stairs and into the nursery. Luna stood there, her hand on her hips and the scariest scowl she’d ever seen on a baby. On
