Chapter 1 - New beginnings

"Mom did we have to exchange one of the largest cities in America for this 'WOLFVILLE' ? I'm a city girl, I can't live here." No Matter the excuse I come up with, mom shuts me down every time. Seriously what the hell are we doing here? Mom focuses her gaze on me "Trey you have to let this go, we are now here, and we are staying, so you better get used to it." I try to reason with her one more time "But mom I had friends back in New York, hell I had a life." But as expected it's to no avail "Luna Trey Thomas you'll make new friends; now drop this argument and start unpacking"

"This is so unfair, what is so special about this 'WOLFVILLE' anyway? I miss home."

"This is our home now Luna. Besides this is my home town, I was born and raised here."

"Huh? You're from here, why didn't I know of this?"

"Because it never came up. Now please go unpack." I raise my hand in exasperation to show my frustration "Fine, but you owe me Ma for upending my life." I storm towards my new room, it's nothing like my old one back in our New York apartment, this one is bigger, I have a lot of space left, the wall are painted in mint green, it's actually refreshing; still I miss home, and I have no clue why we're here, but U guess it has to do with the fact that mom is from here; ugh whatever I'm gonna stop dwelling on this, it's useless, we're here now so I better make the best of it. After I'm done with unpacking I go downstairs, "I finished unpacking my room, and I'm heading out to explore a little bit Ma." Not waiting for her to respond I rush out. After walking around the block for twenty minutes I decide to go to the park mom was raging about, huh, it's actually not bad, it has a serene feel to it, the sign says it was built about 600 years ago, cool. As I'm checking the park I hear yelling and someone grunting in pain, I look for the source and behind a large tree there are three guys bullying another guy, I charge towards them "Hey stop it, what do you think you're doing ganging up on him?" The one being bullied starts "leave...", one of the bullies looks at me with his blue eyes, his handsome features, and his flowing brown hair. Focus Trey, no matter how hot he you find him to be, at the end of the day he's nothing but a bully, pulling myself out my fog, I straighten and glare at the infamous bully, he was saying something while I was busy being a googly eyed "....interesting Jake you finally managed to get yourself a girlfriend and here I thought you were busy being your nerd self, but you should keep her in check, she's being checking me out the moment she laid eyes one." My cheeks heat as I realize he noticed the way I reacted to him, but I'm so not letting him think I got the hots for him "Ha ha funny, I would never give someone like you the light of day, you are pathetic preying on those weaker on you." I turn to Jake I think "You okay." He nods at me and the jerkface laughs "Leave before you hurt yourself princess, this is a private matter."

"If someone is doing the leaving it's you, so why don't gather your underlings and beat it." I say with all the conviction I've got. The jerk seems amused "You got fight in you princess, I would've liked you more, had you not meddled in my business. And if I refuse to go, how are you gonna make me?" This guy really knows how to push my buttons, all I wanna do is wipe that smirk of his pretty face "Not me, him." I point towards the guard talking on his phone oblivious to what's going on here "All I have to do is scream, shed a tear or two and claim that you're harassing me." I challenge him, he wants to retaliate, it's obvious by the way he jaw grinds and his clenched fist, but he gets the message so he turns to leave, but glances back at Jake and warns "Remember what I said pretty boy." Jake looks my way "Thanks for that, but you shouldn't have gotten involved. Daniel Pheonix is better avoided." I extend my hand towards him "Hi I'm Luna Trey Thomas, but I go with Trey mostly. And don't worry about him, I've had my fair share of those, and I can handle them just Fine."

"Nice to meet you Trey, but don't say I didn't warn ya. I'm Jake Barlowe, and starved, would like to join me for a late lunch?"

"Sure I'm famished too." We reach a diner which feels quiet cozy; Jake pulls my attention back to him "You're new in town right." It's a statement not than it is a question, is it that obvious that I don't belong here. "Uh yes I am, we just moved in today actually."

"WOLFVILLE, is a nice town to live in"

"Yeah I guess."

"What an enthusiastic reaction." Jake throws at me sarcastically.

"Very funny. The town is fine, everyone seems friendly, it's just that I loved our previous home, and I really miss my group of friends, my whole life changed in a tik of the cloak, I'm still getting used to all of this."

"Don't worry Trey, life here is gonna be a blast, besides I'm your new friend, and I can introduce to my friends, they will really like you."

"That's so sweet of you Jake, thanks for cheering me up. You ready to order?" After having the world's best burger, I'm ready to call it a day, Jake says he'll walk me back home, and I agree.

"Which school do you go to Jake?"

"WolfVille High."

"Oo I'm supposed to go there too. I'm a junior."

"Me too."

"This is so cool Jake, at least I know you, and you go there, so I won't be all alone."

"Not just me, my friends go there too, and not to forget Daniel Pheonix and his minions go there too."

"Oh." Jake tells all I need to know about survival in WolfVille High. As we approach our house, I can see mom looking around for me. As she spots me, I can see that she's upset; I say goodbye to Jake and rush home. Mom hugs me tightly while also scolding me for being late, she seems so worried, so I try to lighten the mood "Ma it's not like I got eaten by a big bad wolf, I'm perfectly fine." A panic like expression crosses mom's face "Don't even joke about something like that young lady. I would die if something happened to you."

"Oookaaay."

"Tomorrow we are going to see your grandma."

"But she's back in New York." I'm confused now.

"Not grandma Thomas, I'm talking about my mother, Rudina Remus."

"I have another grandmother"

"Where did you think I came from Luna? The moon?"

"No, it's just I never knew, well this is one hell of a surprise. You hid a lot if things from me Ma, I know nothing about your past."

"Don't be so dramatic Luna, we've led a busy life, this topic just never came up."

Wow is my mother serious or am I going crazy. "You've rendered me speechless Ma."

"Go to bed Luna, I'll explain things better tomorrow." And I'm dismissed. Wow just Wow, things keep getting weirder by the minute in this Town's. Changing into my Pj I plop on my bed, and sleep claims me in lightening speed.
