I was born 10 minutes after my sister Lily and that is what unfortunately set my fate. You see my

mother only wanted one pup instead she got two. My twin sister Lily was the princess to my mother

and I was what she called the spare. That is my name “Spare”. Spare Williams.

My sister had sunny golden hair, golden tan skin, bright green eyes and a b*dy to die for. I on the other

hand had dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, pale skin and a b*dy not so much to die for. My father

said that he got a daughter like his mother and one like his mother in law. I took after his mother. I

never knew my grandparents on my fathers side they both died before we were born. My mothers

parents, on the other hand I wish I did not know. They were mean, cruel and judgmental.

My father Erick is the younger brother of our current Alpha Micheal, he is always gone on business

trips checking on allies and the various businesses that the Pack owns. My mom was on several

committees and everything had to be perfect. Well that is except for me, no matter what I do or how

well I do it, it is never enough. As I got older, I started to care less and less about mothers perfection.

Mostly I just stayed away or in the shadows, I wasn’t allowed to eat with the family. When I was

younger I would wait for them to go to bed, so I could steal food from the kitchen. Now with my job, I

can just buy the things I needed.

My bedroom was in the attic, I had a mattress for a bed, a blanket and a pillow. An old dresser for what

little clothes I had. Over the years they would put all their old junk up here, so I added things as they

came.

I went to the same school as all the other pack members, I was pretty much invisible, except when Lilly

wanted to show off to her snobby friends. We turned 18 last month.

I kept my grades a secret from my family. I am a junior because my sister flunked the 9th grade, so my

mother had my sister and me as well redo the 9th grade. She told everyone that I was the one too

stupid to pass, Lilly the saint that she was, stayed back with me for support.

I will be graduating with the seniors, I take advanced classes with the help of some of my teachers. I

have even completed my entry level classes for college. I want to be a doctor.

As soon as graduation is over, I am leaving. I have enough money saved up from my job, I have to

keep that hidden as well or Lilly will find it. God only knows what she would do with it. I worked my tail

off cleaning hotel rooms for every penny I have, the thought of her getting it makes my skin crawl.

Lilly gets 300 dollars a month to spend on frivolous things, not that she pays for her clothes or anything

else like gas for her new car. I know I sound like I’m envious, well maybe a little. It’s because she gets

all the love and attention, while I’m not even allowed to use the front door.

That reminds me “The Grandparents” are coming over tonight for dinner. It doesn’t matter anyway it’s

Friday, I picked up an extra shift at the hotel. I would like to say that work at least gives me some

friends to talk to but it doesn’t. It’s just me and the cleaning cart.

Everyday I tell myself, soon. There is one girl I am friendly with, she is an Omega and is kinda invisible

like me. We used to chat almost everyday but she just disappeared a week ago. I tried to look around

and ask a few pack members but I don’t want or need any extra attention, I just hope she is ok.

Thank the goddess for my one and only truest friend my wolf, Artemis. She is so beautiful, a white wolf

with black on the tips of her paws. Her eyes are even darker than mine. She is fast, very fast. She has

kept me sane growing up and is my motivation when I sometimes feel like giving up.

So here I am pushing my cleaning cart from room to room, you really don’t understand how nasty d*rty

people can be till you work as a maid in a hotel. It truly makes me wonder what their houses look like. I

knock on the door, there is no answer, so I knock a little louder. nothing. I use my key and open the

door just a little to say, “Housekeeping, any one here?” again nothing. So I grab some supplies and

head on in.

The bathroom is first on the left, so I start there. I turn on the light expecting the usual carnage, I am

surprised when it is neat. I clean everything and restock the extra’s. I then turn on the light for the main

room and I gasp, there on the floor is a n*ked man, I think he is unconscious. I sigh, just what I need

another drunk.

I grab a towel off the cart and cover his unmentionables. Then I reach down and shake his shoulder,

that is when I see the blood running down his face. Oh, god he is hurt!. I shake him gently one more

time and he moans. “Sir, can you hear me?.” he moans again, this time he is starting to move. He

rolled over on his back, I was thinking of going to the front desk for help. I can’t afford a phone, so I

couldn’t call.

He is a big guy, very tall, well built tan skin, dark hair and when he opened his eye’s they were so

unusual, they were a bright gold that seemed to have a life of their own. His scent was intoxicating a

combination of the deep woods and rain. She could tell that his wolf was looking back at her too. She

backed away a little, “I’m sorry if I was too close, you were unconscious. Are you ok? Let me get a cold

wash cloth for your forehead.”

Duncan woke to the sweetest voice, he almost thought that he was still dreaming. Then he

remembered how he ended up on the floor n*ked. His wolf, Apollo assured him that he was healing.

Nothing to worry about.

That is when she came back with a cold wash cloth, it took the sting out of the cut, her scent hit him it

was a strange combination of roses and peppermint. She was gorgeous, the most beautiful woman he

had ever seen. Both Duncan and his wolf spoke at the same time. “MATE!”.

At the same time a look of horror came across her face and she bolted out the door, Duncan can still

hear her words as she ran, “NO! please not now.” Without thinking he ran after her. He caught her just

as she was heading for the back door. He wrapped his arms around her and she started to panic.

“Shhhh, little wolf. I am not going to hurt you.”

She stopped moving and was quiet, I carried her over my shoulder back to my room. Duncan noticed

how small she was and that she hardly weighed anything at all. He could feel her breathing, it was still

fast but calming down.

Spare got a good view of his really nice ass. Artemis was going crazy in her head. She was so

frustrated that she could of slapped her, “stop it you hussy, this messes up everything.” “He is our

mate!!!! He can help us. Smell him, he isn’t from our pack.”

He went inside his room and shut the door locking it behind him. He sat her gently down on the bed ,

as he went to get a pair of his jeans. Just as he was buttoning them up, he saw her bolt for the door.

Catching her quickly this time he sat down with her on his lap. “Tell me my little wolf, why are you so

afraid?”

“Please.. she whimpered, you have to let me go, I can’t stay here in this pack anymore, you will ruin all

my plans.”

“Calm down little wolf and smell me again.”

Spare looked at him for a little bit and then sniffed his scent again. It was the same as before but there

was something else, “OMG, you’re not from this pack.” He smiled at her, taking her all in, his wolf

Apollo was doing happy circles in his head. A very smug Artemis was saying “told you so” in her head

over and over.

“What is your name my little wolf?”

“Umm.. my name?”

“With a chuckle he asked her again, “Yes, my little wolf your name.”

Hanging her head in shame she whispered, “My name is Spare.”

His mind couldn’t get around it, what kind of name was Spare? “As in a spare tire?! that kind of spare.”

“Yes, as in that spare.”

It’s clear it embarrassed her so he decided to drop it for now.”My name is Duncan MacKenny of the

Storm Crow Moon Pack.” Spare didn’t know a lot about the Storm Crow Moon Pack, only that it is a

mysterious and secretive pack that the Wolf King hires to hunt down criminals and rogues.

“My full name is Spare Williams of the Rising Moon pack.” His eye’s went from golden to an almost

copper color when she said her name. His voice gave off a low growl when he asked…”Williams as in

Micheal and Eric Williams?”

“Yes, my father is Eric.”

“I met Eric’s daughter Lilly, there was no mention of another daughter. ”

” Lilly is my twin sister, there was no mention of me because I am the Spare. I don’t exist to them,

unless they want to vent some anger or need an ego boost.” It broke his heart to see her shrug it off as

if it was normal. There were so many questions and so little time to get the answers. She isn’t going to

like what he has to tell her next.
