Once a werewolf took the oath to serve our kind, they became an Elder. A group dedicated to the wellbeing of all werewolves. One of our differences was the Elders, like Winifred. We werewolves were similar to humans in some ways, yet different in so many others. As I traveled, I thought of the human boy and his mom. With an easy lope, I started the journey to the Compound, the meeting place for my kind. Love lit her gaze as she turned to study the boy’s bent head.Įxhaling, I turned away from what I would never have. She congratulated him for his high score on a math test. The distance and the closed house kept me from hearing everything, but I heard her response. Passing the table where her son sat doing his homework, she stopped to kiss the top of his head. The woman in the window moved around the kitchen, cooking dinner. The Elders knew I would come, just as I knew the reason they’d called me.įor a moment, I continued to watch the house from my place hidden within the trees. Winifred’s voice interrupted my contemplation of the scene before me.
