Chapter one:

I was broken.

I was in pain.

I was left alone, bleeding, by the one I loved most. And so I had remained in my house ever since that fateful day. My brother Seth had tried to get me to come out but I had refused. My mom had threatened to ground me. Go ahead mom, I am already staying locked in my room.

I had believed it all to be over when Sam and Emily had announced their engagement. I had been furious and shaking. Suddenly heat had filled me and I stood on four paws. And I heard voices in my head. The voices of Quil, Embry, Paul, Jacob and even my little brother Seth. But there was one that stood out from the rest.

Sam fucking Uley.

They had explained everything to me. That was why I remained in my room, to avoid becoming angry and phasing. If I phased I would not only have to hear Sam's voice, but obey his commands as well. Sam had stopped by to see me once and had explained to me about imprinting and why he had left me for my cousin, Emily. It was going well until he told me I had to get over it and him, because there was no room in his heart for me anymore. There was only Emily. That had earned him a broken jaw and nose. But it had healed and he made no attempt to talk to me again.

After a while I had emerged and taken up my place in the pack. But hearing Sam constantly think about how much he loved Emily and how she was all her would ever need made me bitter and because I was bitter I was mean. I did not want the world to see that I was hurting let alone cared. So I put up a façade. The world now saw me as the she devil and the biggest bitch La Push had ever seen. My temper became legendary.

No one understood how I felt and no one cared to understand. They didn't know that Sam had left me for my cousin because of some ancient wolf voodoo shit. All they knew was that Emily was an angel and I was the devil, uncap able of being loved or loving in return. It was typical; the world saw me as the bad guy. Even the people who knew what had happened thought I was just overreacting. And they did not understand how much their insults and taunting hurt.

I was alone.
