MY LIFE ! MY LIFE !! REWRITING MY SECOND ACT Trina and I looked at each other overjoyed by the news . I understand ! I am not looking for a mate right now . I just want to enjoy my freedom . stated Trina . I love Trina . She is short , hot and sassy . She is a light brown skinned sister with a wicked sense of humor . Everyone thinks she is timid and shy , but she is far from that . Do you both have your wolves ? probed Alpha Zane . Yes , Alpha Zane ! We both do ! acknowledged Trina . Trina , you are an Omega , right ? inquired Alpha Zane . Yes , Alpha Zane ! answered Trina . There are a lot more Omegas in the world than Zetas . The werewolf community tends to mistreat them . They are seen as weak and vulnerable creatures . Some Alphas have been known to force them into servitude and breeding contracts . Breeding contracts are illegal , but some still practice this behavior discreetly . Alphas are taught from birth that Omegas and Zetas make the best breeders for strong pups . Nola ! You are twenty years old , correct ? asked Alpha Zane , continuing his line of questioning . Yes , Alpha Zane ! I replied , knowing he was getting the easy questions out of the way to lead to questions about Alpha Hudson . I want to be transparent , ladies ! After you called , I checked the newly released juvenile rehab centers website and found both of your names . Secondly , I looked up both of your charges . I wanted to see if the stories you gave me were indeed true . announced Alpha Zane . Beta Hugh was observing us rather closely . We understand ! Our stories are a little wild and crazy ! Anyone would want to double check to ensure we werent outright lying . We arent hurt ! We would do the same in your place ! I informed him . He shook his head and smiled . Then he took a deep breath . Trina , you did receive two years in jail for stealing fifty dollars worth of groceries . Your only living family member on record is a stepfather , Marlan Jackson , with an arrest record a mile 1/4 +8 Points MY LIFE ! MY LIFE !! REWRITING … long . Furthermore , it is my job to make sure you …. Ladies arent a danger to my pack . After being in your presence for two minutes …. I dont think you could hurt a fly , Trina . declared Alpha Zane as Beta Hugh nodded in agreement . Thank you ! Thank you for being honest with us ! said Trina . Nola , you were charged with assaulting your ex- mate , Alpha Hudson . You were sentenced to five years . However , you only served four years due to good behavior . I must tell you …. He has already sent out missing she wolf notices ! He sent them out to all the packs on the East Coast . He is an i *** t ! So , I believe your side of the story ! You will be safe here ! I will , however , need to see your wolves , ladies ! Whats their names ? stated Alpha Zane . Topaz ! Im guessing , since the East Coast has a large number of African American people , even as wolves . He thinks I would go East to hide and blend in . I replied . Thats pretty ! Thats my guess , too ! he commented . Star ! replied Trina . Thats nice ! he stated . I want to make this abundantly clear right now . I have no intentions of ever reuniting with him . I have never cared about being a stupid Luna . Being a Luna is not something I wanted for myself . I just wanted to be a Gamma Warrior ! I want to protect and serve my pack ! I want to have fun and make up for all the years I have lost ! I hated being caged up ! I will never allow anyone to imprison me again . I declared to him . I understand perfectly ! I was rejected , too ! One day I might share my story with you . However , now I have been blessed with my beautiful and sweet chosen mate Luna Bobby Christina and my mini me Santana . I am truly thankful everyday for that woman and our little family . voiced Alpha Zane as he nodded his head in understanding . They walked all the way to the packhouse , it looked like a picturesque wooden ski lodge . The kind you might see in a promotional brochure . So this is the packhouse ! We live a very modest life out here and no one bothers us . We are 423 in total right now . How many train , Alpha Zane ? I asked . Everyone in my pack is required to train . Sadly , to say I have very few real warriors . So if you are looking for a pack to protect you from your ex- mate ….. this pack isnt it! declared Alpha Zane . I just want a pack ! I want a place to belong …. a chance to rebuild my life on my terms . I can with your permission teach them to fight like me , I responded . 2/4 MY LIFE ! MY LIFE !! REWRITING … Sounds good to me ! stated Alpha Zane with a reassuring smile . Me , too ! voiced Beta Hugh . I will give it my best try , Alpha Zane ! I replied . Good , that is all I can ask ! declared Alpha Zane in a firm tone . We walked into his office to find a gorgeous , redhead she wolf sitting on the sofa . She promptly stood up and said Welcome ! Im Luna Bobby Christina and this is our nine year old son Santana ! Then she hugged both of us and their son waved at us inquisitively . the little boy really did look like a smaller version of his father . Trina Marie Pierce and Nola Aisha Gaye , I am so glad to have you here with us ! We are very laid back and informal around here ! she announced . We were initiated into THE SAFE HAVEN PACK . Then taken to our new home ; it was a small two bedroom and two bathroom cottage . The cottage housed two older she wolves , Betty Mae and Petra Rose . Petra Rose was Jamaican and from a pack in New York . Petra Rose was very chatty and friendly . Betty Mae was extremely shy and bashful . Betty Mae was from a pack in North Carolina . However , she opened up the more she was in our presence . They were very welcoming to us . We had dinner with them . So is everyone cool around here ? asked Trina . Yes ! answered Petra Rose . Cool ! replied Trina . Betty Mae and I were both rejected . How about you , two ? asked Petra Rose . Just me ! Trina is just here for moral support ! She is my adopted sister ! I informed them . No ! Also , because Im an Omega ! Most packs are not kind to us ! stated Trina . So , true ! replied Betty Mae . Petra Rose and Betty Mae were both omegas . They had experienced mistreatment in their old packs . They were both rejected by Alphas for being weak . The ladies bonded by sharing their stories with each other . They became instant friends . When does training happen in this pack ? I asked , wanting to change the subject . I have had enough of sharing my pain . I just dont like talking about it in general . Every morning at the crack of damn dawn ! Why ? Betty Mae giggled . I like to train ! I am a good fighter . I know three different types of martial arts and the ways of wolfen fighting hand to hand , plus weapons . Ill be teaching what I know . I said proudly . Great ! We could use all the help we can get ! Cause honestly we suck ! confessed Petra Rose . 3/4 +8 Paints MY LIFE ! MY LIFE !! REWRITING … Nolas first few days in the pack were long and rewarding . Meeting their Head Warrior , Benjamin was very interesting to say the least . He was a ex rogue due to rejection . He had been rejected years ago . He was training everyone by himself . He was forty years old . He had no kids . He scented strongly of Beta blood . Most importantly he was a man of very few words . He assessed my ability to fight , thoroughly . He was impressed with my skill set in human and in wolf form . Quickly , I was set up to help him train the women and men in the pack . The majority of people in the pack were either in their twenties or thirties . Everyone trained one hour each in three groups of one hundred and forty . I felt strongly that was simply not adequate amount of time . However , some appeared to be worn out by that one hour of training and others were not overwhelmed at all . So I decided to have a meeting about the training regime with Alpha Zane and Head Warrior Benjamin .
