"Maya!" My father called out to me. I went to him curious my tail swaying. "Maya, I've arranged a marriage for you with the pack leader. Liam's father is going to pay a great deal for your hand," he informed me. I was shocked, angry, and confused. I stormed out of the room with hot tears running down my face. I'm only 16, I'm too young to marry! I went into our den and collected my few things. I saw my father coming after me. "Maya, he will treat you well. We need the money to pay for your mothers treatment." I froze. "WHAT TREATMENT?! IS SHE SICK?!" I asked not knowing what he means. He looked at me with sorrowful eyes and didnt speak. Not knowing what else to do I ran to my mother. She was usually pale and slim, with dark eyes and wolf ears peaking through her soft long hair, but not today. She was asleep, and cold. "Mom..." I whispered to her. my dad walked in. I was just realizing how red and puffy his eyes were... was he crying? "The doctor came today with the test results. We didn't want to worry you. The doctor said that she tested positive for cancer, and there are few, expansive cures for hybrids yet." He told me. I was scared, and confused. Why her... she volunteered at the puppy orphanage, helped at the stray pounds.... "By marrying Liam he can help pay for the treatment." He continued. I didnt know how to feel. I knew I had to marry him, but Liam was a complete stranger.
