The shower is refreshing and allows me a lot of time to think. My situation isn’t going to get any better, so I need to be proactive. I need to put everyone in their places, so they understand that I’m not one to play with. I just don’t know how to go about doing that. My mom was right; I have always just run and avoided. That is the wrong strategy here. I’m not a kid anymore, and this will impact more than just me. The pack needs a Luna and the Moon Goddess meant for her to be me.

He laughs as he heads to the door. “I’ll take that as a ‘no.’ See you guys later.” Marks walks out, and I’m left with Lynn.
