Chapter Two: Friends.

Nala POV

Finally, they let me out, I'm walking with Jennifer, she looks young as young as me. She got long curly red hair, she's so cute. But I can see that's she's tense and scared I don't know her story or why she ended up here. Yeah I know shocker I'm the Luna of this pack but my mates won't tell me anything.

"Soooo what would you like to do?" I ask the girl

"Uhmm...whatever you want Luna" ~Jennifer

I couldn't help but laugh, nobody calls me Luna except my mate when they want to tease me or get me to do something work-related, a Luna should do this or do that…

"Call me Nala, how old are you," I ask.

"I'm forty-five and dad said to call you Luna, you know respect" the girl Jennifer replies

I don't get why she's so scared of me, maybe cause she's young or because I’m young or because I’m so famous.

"Nah just call me Nala, nobody calls me Luna around here anyway. And I'm almost eighteen. Come on let me show you around " I assure her

We're walking around with me pointing out as we go, the main house, the forest, my favorite track, we're walking toward the main clearance where the packhouses are, and ohh here comes my favorite friend-not.

I and Jesse got a love-hate relation well mostly hate. The first time he ever saw me, he hit me and pushed me to the ground, I called my mates and daddy Aidan came to my rescue, well Aidan being 6'6 made of full muscles and his hair buzz cut, a beard and a prominent scar over his left eyebrow along with some smaller one all over his face and body and brown eyes.

After he got in trouble, he and I have an unwritten -unspoken agreement to tease and torment each other, as long as he never lay a hand on me I don't tell my mates.

"Luna what bring you, princess, around here, and who's the red?" Jesse says, he calls me Luna but not out of respect, the word is said with utter sarcasm.

"Jesse nice to see you again" I reply with sarcasm as well. But he's not paying me attention his eyes are on Jennifer behind me.

"So you're the new puppy? I got a friend in your original pack he said all redheads don't have souls, no wonder you never shifted "

Never shifted, what? I look over at Jennifer and she looks on edge of tears. He gets closer to her playing with a lock of her hair, she's flinching from his touch. Ohhh Jesse just took it too far.

"Hands off, "I say with a low growl, a trick I learned from Christian.

"What's it to you, Luna she doesn't have seven mates, she's a free game" Jesse growl at me.

Ohh no he didn't. "Jesse you got three seconds to keep your hands for yourself, she's under my protection touch her and I'll hurt you" we got in each other faces both of us growling low a fight about to break.

"What's going on here? Nala Jesse back off both of you" came Zach's voice, Zach live with us in the main house he's Ryland cousin and like a big brother for me, oh and he's also a strong dominant alpha, not a great idea to mess with him.

I took Jennifer's hand and skipped toward Zach, while Jesse growled one last time and left.

"What's that about little sis and who's your friend?" Zach ask me nodding toward Jennifer

"Zachy this is Jennifer she's new to the pack, I was showing her around when Jesse tried to bully her " I explain.

"One day that pup going to land his ass in deep trouble and he won't be able to get out of it. Anyway welcome to the pack Jennifer I'm Zach" he says and extends his hand for her and she takes it reluctantly.

We're walking back toward the house when I decide to ask Jennifer what Jesse meant about shifting, she's avoiding my eyes and stuttering in a low voice.

"Jennifer as your Luna I got the right to know now say that again" I really hate using my title but I need to know.

"I didn't shift yet, I'm a late bloomer as my mum said and cause of my red hair the guys in my old pack used to bully me and say I'm a witch," she says with a broken voice, full of pain.

I can hear how hurt she is, I can see tears in her eyes. The poor thing looks lost, and if I learned anything in this pack is that we offer support to each other.

I took her in my arm and hug her, she's so thin I can feel her bones, she's rigid first probably think I'm going to hurt her but she then relaxes and hugs me back.

"I'm sorry for that Jenny, but I meant it you are under my protection and no one can hurt my friends" I assure her

Ohh my godddd she looks adorable all lost and scared. My wolf purr she likes the idea of helping someone who needs our help. I get spoiled all day around the house, and the thought of helping someone and having a friend my age, it's very tempting.

"It's okay...you don't have to...you're Luna and I don't want to make you look bad or...."~ Jenny says and breaks down in tears. That poor thing needs a friend and she's getting one.

I'm back to hugging her and trying to calm her down. When she's done I announce that she's getting a friend, Luna orders. I love my new statue.
