A/N: Okay, I just finished reading Shiver and I absolutely fell in love with the book and had to do a fanfic. Please I hope this ends up good and you all love it.

Chapter one-Sam

My name is Sam. That's what I keep telling myself when I'm like this. I have to. I'm only thirteen and I feel like a thirty year old man. I'm not normal though, I'm not like other thirteen year old boys. I'm a werewolf, an unfortunate life placed on me by my adopted father, Beck. But, as much as I should hate him, I don't. I love him. Just like that girl I saved. I love her too. But not myself. I did something wrong tonight, something bad.

45*F

It's winter again, my most hated time of year. I roamed the woods, bored and itching for summer, when I heard crying. Not like a person, but like a baby or a small child. I followed the sound and the scent of milk to a small basket near the edge of the river. Icocked my head to the side and nudged the basket with my nose. I should have turned around and gotten Beck, but I didn't. I nuzzled at the small infant crying within the basket. Her wails made my ears hurt and she only screamed louder when I pulled a bit of the blanket away. Being the stupid teenager I was, I became frustrated fast and growled before biting into her tiny fist. By the time I realized what I had done, it was far too late. She had begun to change into a tiny helpless pup. She whimpered at me, begging for warmth and comfort from the bitter cold that surrounded us. Shocked at my own actions, I backed away from her, the brown mass of puppy fur still whimpering and crying. I had been too wrapped up in avoiding the pup that I didn't notice the second child, a little boy wrapped up in blankets, sitting beside a tree and wide-eyed in fear. Everything within me screamed run away, but I stayed frozen, until he began to run. Leaving the pup behind, I chased him down and tore into his left arm. Again I was too late to realize my mistake as now a slightly bigger pup sat in front of me, ears back, tail tucked between his legs, and sapphire blue eyes wide with fear. I mentally cursed, something I rarely did, and turned back for the other pup. I gently picked her up in my mouth and motioned for the other to follow. We headed away from Beck's house towards a small den I usually played in. Once safely inside, i set the pup down and tried to think clearly. I now had two defensless and completly unskilled pups on my hands. Beck would kill me if he found out what I had done or worse, Shelby would kill the pups. With her always vieing for mine or Beck's attention, a pair of pups would easily upset her and send her into a tizzy. After she sent Dario's dogs after Paul, I never fully forgave her for that either, I didn't want her anywhere near them. The two of them whimpered simultaneously, dragging me from my thoughts. Both had been a little scraggly looking when I found them and the girl had only been fed a small amount of milk which wasn't too reccent either. I had no choice but to find food for them. Going home was out of the question, Beck or Shelby would most defininantly catch wind of the pups; and if Paul found them, then I would be in even more trouble for going against the pack leader. I whimpered as well, more out of indecision than hunger. Then an idea came to me, humans would leave food outside for their pets. Leftover food was better than no food at all. And a couple houses had felines which drank milk. I grabbed the smaller pup and headed out when something sent shivers down my spine. I stepped back inside and set the pup down. Cold air whipped at my muzzle and I cursed mentally again as I noticed the snowstorm rolling in. I debated just leaving the two pups behind and finding the others and pretending all of this never happened, but part of me felt responsible for them. I looked out side, the snow wasnt falling heavily yet. I whistled through my nose and retrieved the two pups; I would just have to face the drama that awaited me.
