Iniko

"This burns me more than a BBQ!" says my friend Rebbeca under her black umbrella, just sightseeing with me for a while.

She says as she looks under her umbrella. At times I swear she is no Lycan or werewolf, constantly sleepy in the day, moody, and I have never heard her talk about her wolf or Lycan. Nobody can see her, so I always talk to her as if she is real.

I know I'm a bit older not to be, you know, talking to my imaginary friend but seeing her lonely gets to me, and I don't like making her feel bad. Rebbeca is a young blonde, skinny and pale. She is always in victorian clothes, dark clothes, and very imaginary. She is sweet in her voice, charming with her movements, and a funny girl always full of adventures nicknamed her Ree.

"Then I think it's time you go back to work, and I do too. See you tonight, Ree." I tell her as we part ways.

My name is Iniko, and I'm a slim boy of brown color, big dark brown curls, im well kept in hair cuts, I have thin hoop earrings, thick eyebrows, brown eyes, heart face with a more rounded nose, I'm fit in the body for a 17-year-old, my birthday is tomorrow, so I am almost a man with a wolf.

I am always in button tropical shirts of light colors with short button pants and sandals. I wear caps when I work out delivering things, been doing that since I was ten after school, earning my keep is not easy I never have a single dollar on me because I am saved, which is something I don't like at all, if you want a way better image of how I look like Brandon Mcguire is the best I can tell you, but I'm his better version.

I live here on an island named Aguiebana, this island that helps raise their kind of only Lycans, and werewolves help the Lycan's here, I'm an orphan that one day I guess my parents left me in the islands the main packhouse being raised by the Alpha Drake in his pack on the island, Ever Green Pack, as a payment for staying I help in the protection of the Lycans, which honestly is somewhat unfair.

They are the ones who need our protection, or so the Alpha says, but they don't even try to be grateful to us; instead, they bully us. I try not to let it get to me, seeing as I owe everything to the Alpha. He and Luna Marena are like the best parents I have ever had, and I never once tried to be on their wrong side.

I ride my bike to the big blue building in the center where I work. It's literally like a department building, and it's centered in the territory where the houses where the Lycans live are. I help distribute their meals, clothes, toys, medications, mail, and anything they ask as I walk up to the center gates where security is.

I gave them my ID to enter. I sat ahead since I was on the beach. I was a bit late, but nothing working would get me out. I park my bike in its space, but the chains, and lock it, taking the key with me. I stop as I hear the car with the meat stop.

A neighbor waves at me, " Hey Iniko, help me with this in the building, will you? I will be right behind you with more before they get their claws out at me again."

He hands me a plastic bag that has the meat's in them. I take it in and see the Luna is looking for someone. When she sees me, she calms down, other she-wolves follow her, she walks to me and takes the bag. I try to protest because a luna is not somebody who should be doing this type of job. But, she takes care of others' needs with our help.

Luna Marena looks like a cheerleader from the super bowls type, long ironed black hair, really shiny bronze tan, bright green eyes, she has a curvy body but flat on her chest and a shallow voice, all werewolves here are 6.00 up, she is 6.02 taller than me, for now, I am 6.00 now, ones I get my wolf I will change in the body.

She takes me by the shoulds, and we walk out to a BMW. I walk in with her. As we sit, she looks a bit nervous, not the first time she is looking for me and can't find me, and I put my hand on hers to help her calm down;

The Luna takes my attention with our conversation. "How have you been?"

"I have been good, been at the ocean for a while, looked like a lovely time in the morning to get some vitamin D," I replied her as I saw her shifting uncontrollably, not feeling con trouble with my situation.

"It is a very sunny day out, has any plans for tomorrow? It's something the Alpha and I kind of need to know." She adds she sounds out of this conversation like she is trying to fill in the conversation absent-mindedly.

Iniko- Well, no, only my first shift and getting to find my mate like all other werewolves, why? Is everything okay?

I feel like she is interrogating me on this, she has done it for the Alpha before, and it's always something they don't tell me till I ask. Still, as I do, we stop in the packhouse, I have a shift to do so I can earn my keep in staying here with everyone else, but I'm being moved here by my Luna during my work hours.

"Please don't make things difficult, Iniko. I have excused you from work till we have your wolf, okay? So take it as a free day." The Luna tells me with a warning tone.

"Luna Marena, what's going on?" My worried tone squeaks out.

She et's out of the BMW and in the packhouse, my two warrior friends Kealan and Chase, they look uncomfortable in how they are standing, I walk behind the Luna as my two friends walk beside me each, inside the Alpha is talking to his Beta Philip, I am very nervous they should be working but here they are talking while we walk to them.

Alpha Drake is the big strong muscled Alpha, and he works in the pack all the time. He never allows a day to be wasted, bold brown with tattoos all over him, wearing a crop top and blue basketball shorts, sandals with his sunglasses on his head one can see his brown eyes he has a slim face as he has no neck, he has his arms crossed on his chest and is 6.05.

Beta Phillip is similar, but he has one heck of an afro with its metal brush stuck on the side; he wears a tree pal black button tropical shirt, and under a thin white shirt with green trunks, he's 6.04 and is accessible on tattoos with his sandals laughing at their conversation.

As soon as they see me, their faces change. What did I do that made them this angry? Was it Cayden and his anger with me? He always fights with me. I don't know why. Yes, the girl he crushes is beautiful, Anvi, even I like her a lot, but why bother to try when I know she will never want a guy like me? I'm not even a warrior that could provide her with something.

The Alpha asks me. "How are you feeling, Iniko?"

"Me? Nervous afraid, and can anyone please tell me what is going on? Luna Marena has been acting weird, and so have my friends who are by my side on duty. Alpha, what is happening?"

"Iniko, they have made it clear to me that you need to stay far away from werewolves to make sure your curse ends here." Says my Alpha, almost like a command to not defy him.

"Curse? What do you mean curse? I have never known of a curse." I'm shocked, and with fear, I can't explain.

I was livid, I had done nothing wrong, but here they are making me be a bad person when I had done nothing to them. My two friends put their hands on my shoulders to pin me still as the Luna goes to stand behind the Alpha, the Beta places his hand on the Alpha.

The Beta takes control of the conversation or tries to. "I will make sure to do Alpha as we talked about, make sure his father knows he is safe.

I don't understand what they are telling me, the words just fly out of my lips. "My father? You can."
