*Some Years Later*

Rose's POV

"Can things get any better?" I thought as I looked at my tattered self in the mirror.

I thought I would never have a mate. I thought the moon goddess did not give me one. I thought she wanted me to be alone. I thought she was just watching me. She watched my parents abandon me in front of the pack orphanage. She watched me grow up with my abusive foster parents. She watched me go to high school and get injected with some sex drive fluid. She watched my life get ruined. She watched it all.

I dabbed off the tears that were beginning to fall freely on my face. I sniffed in and coughed lightly to clear my throat. I opened the bottle of wine before me and poured a little into the glass. I took the glass and sipped a little of the wine. The black berry taste made my mouth sour. I looked around my little room. It lacked life even though there was one there.

Knock! Knock! Knock!
