My name is Salem Harpen. I'm eighteen years old. And I am the last member of my pack.
The day I was born, my pack was secretly attacked and many of them were killed. My grandmother was lucky enough to escape with me into the depth of the forest. 
For eighteen years my grandmother and I have been dwelling secretly in the forest. Old age had soon taken over her and she was not strong anymore. The day she was taking her last breath. She made me make a promise to never leave our secret place. One day I had to. There was no more prey to hunt and I was slowly dying of hunger. I had to leave our secret place to survive.
Seeing the outside world of the forest for the first. I was scared. I swiftly search for enough food to return to my safe place but unexpectedly I was captured by a pack of wolves for hunting on their land without any permission. New to the outside world I was clueless about such a rule. They chained me up and carry me away to be punished by their alpha. I cried. Was I the end of my entire pack?

The Hidden She-wolf

　　The morning I was still asleep not realizing it was daylight. I was awakened by a sharp sound behind the door. I jumped up and ran to the stairs scenting it was another wolf outside.


　　Madison had heard the sound and came downstairs. I ran past her upstairs and stood at the corner of the stairs, so that no one could see me, frightened.


　　"It's okay, it's probably someone from the pack visiting me," said Madison softly.


　　My head slowly peeped at her from the corner of the stairs.


　　She smiled at me and reassured me that everything was going to be okay. She then went to open the door. As she did I quickly hid back in the corner of the stairs, seeing who it was here to see her.


　　It was the first wolf I had met the day I left the depth of the forest to hunt for a meal. He was the one who caught me and the one who knocked me out and made me unconscious. I remembered his name. I'll never forget it. His name was Alaric.


　　"Alaric, what are you doing here?" asked Madison curiously.
