I was running as fast as I could away from them, but not fast enough. Wolves. That was what was chasing me. I run as fast as I could, down through the forest. “AH!” I screamed as I tripped up and tree root. As I scrabbled to my feet, I heard the pack behind me. I had lost dear time. Once I had got to my feet, a dog like figure was in front of me, black fur, snarling teeth. A wolf. “Please don't hurt me... I did nothing wrong!” I bellowed. He suddenly stopped snarling and licking his lips. Instead he just ran to me, teeth bared. As I crouched down, he bit my neck, and everything went black...
Once I awoke, I could smell bacon and eggs. I could also smell something else. A dog? Then I remembered the night before. As the smell got closer, I looked at the wall, a axe. I ran over, faster then I had before, must be the adrenalin As the dog smell reached the door, I raised the axe above my head, ready to fight. As the door knob moved, instead of a dog walking in, or a wolf, a tall man with broad shoulders walked in. He had black hair and was drop dead gorgeous I still swung the weapon over blocking his path. “When I let you go, you will say two things. The first will tell me who you are, and the second, why I'm here. Go” I said, seeking an answer.
“Well. My name is Drake, I am a member of the moon pack, close friends with the Goodwin Vampire's. The moon pack is a pack of werewolves You are here because you where on our territory last night, and I caught up with you. I was supposed to kill you, but, I felt something inside me tell me not to. So, rather then leave you to die, I bit you, turning you into a werewolf. You have been out cold for a week. I thought you were going to die...” the man said. Well, Drake.
“What, a, a week? I thought it was the next day!? And, me, a werewolf! No, you kidnapped me! HELP!” I screamed as I ran outside, but he caught me by the waste.
“I'm not going to hurt you. That feeling I felt... The feeling you felt as I walked into the room, werewolves only mate once, and when they meet them, even if they have to kill you, they won't. I love you... and you love me too.” Drake whispered in my ear, turning me to face him. I looked at him. He had a kind looking face, his hair looked smooth. It was true, I did love him. More then anything else in the world. “But first, you must tell me your name..” He said, as I was leaning in to kiss him.
“Abigail, but you can call me Abi...” I told him, as our lips touched, fitting each other perfectly, forever more...
Chapter 1
I awoke with a smile on my face. Today was going to be different. I may have to be going to the memorial of Maddie, Will, and the rest of the Goodwin's (all of witch we thought to be long dead), it was the day before my wedding. After ten years of waiting, Drake had finally asked me to marry him. If only Maddie could have seen it, but she was to busy trying to both bring her family back, and kill them. She just had to kill herself and Will. 
I pulled back the covers, and as my feet touched the stone cold floor, I looked at my cabinet There were the black rose's for Maddie and Will. But there was also a picture of me, Drake, Maddie and Will. She was a happy 1500017/17 year old. Until her brother and mother came back to life. I just hoped nobody else had to die. As I walked to the door, it opened, admitting Drake, with breakfast. I was surprised he wasn't still in our bed. As he gave me my breakfast, he let me sit back in bed.
“Though day today isn't it. Maddie and Will and all. But at least we have something to do tomorrow” he said, seeing the look on my face. He lent in, and I could feel his breath on mine. He was waiting for me to close the gap. So I did. As our lips touched, all the pain went away. As our lips touched, all the bad memory’s were wiped from me, leaving only me and him entwined in the moment. I wished that we could have sex, but he kept telling me he was saving it for after our wedding, so I broke the kiss, finished my breakfast, and got ready for the memorial.
It was not what I expected. Lot's of werewolves, not to many vampires though. They all said some words, put down flowers and sat down. Me and Drake would be last as we were the closest friends they had, and he was the pack leader. But as our time came, I began to feel the pang of guilt. But I was beckoned up to the post. I had to. 
“Maddie and Will where properly the closest thing I had to best friends since I was changed. They understood. They were kind people inside. They didn't care about what people thought of them. They just got on with it. Anyway. They may have been 1500017 years old, but inside they were 17 year old's with there life taken away. They had no soul. But know, at least they can live there life as a family. They can just be 17 year old's. And no matter how much me and Drake will miss them, they are happier were they are know. They may not see our wedding tomorrow from the front row where they were supposed to, but they will still see it. And I know, they would want all of us to just live and die peacefully. Thank you Maddie, and you Will.” once I had finished my speech, I left, Drake coming up behind me. As I turned, I saw I wasn't the only one crying. But before he could say anything I told him, “I'm gonna go to Leah's. You know, so I can get ready and everything. I love you.” and I walked away, just as he said something that sounded like a I love you.
At Leah's, she got my mind off of everything. We partied, we got drunk, we ate and then we watched some films. Not any werewolf or vampire ones though. She knew what had happened. She was my second best friend. She had been a werewolf from birth like most of the Moon Wolf pack. She hadn't met her mate yet though. She always got my mind off of everything before this anyway. By the time I got into my bed, (we had beds at each others houses, easier just to crash there if we had to then) all I could think about was my wedding.
“Get up!!!!! Do you want to get married or what?! ABI!!!!” Leah was screaming into my ear. I opened my eyes and beat her with the pillow, both of us laughing. “Your getting married! Come on! Let's get your dress on, then your hair then make up!” she said, sounding ten times more excited then I was. I agreed and went to brush my teeth.
When I had my dress on, Leah pulled me over to the mirror and began doing things to my hair I never thought possible My dress was a short (stopped about 5 inches before my knee), showing my back, shaped, sleeveless and white. My shoes were 3 inch white heels, no toe. It was the perfect dress. But we would have to wait and see what Drake thought of it.
I was behind the doors waiting for the signal to walk up the isle. I looked at the ceiling “Hope you enjoy this you two.” referring to Will and Maddie. Maddie was the one that showed me the dress. All three of us (Leah, me and Maddie) loved it. So I got it. It was worth $3000.
“Abigail, they are ready.” My father told me. He walked over to me smiling, took my hand, and began to walk down the isle. The music playing was kiss me again by we are the in crowd. I have always loved that song. And so did Drake. I guess we really were the perfect couple. As I reached the end of the isle, my father swung me round to face him, kissed me on the forehead gently and handed me over to Drake. Both of our mouths dropped open. At least we knew we picked the right outfits. I could barely hear a word the priest was saying. I just couldn't wait to be married. But when it got to the I do's, I listened.
“Do you, Drake Moon, take Abigail Rachel, to be you lawfully wedded wife?” I waited. He looked at the priest, then at me.
“I do.” he said, in a voice that made me melt and fall in love with him all over again.
“And do you, Abigail Rachel, take Drake Moon to be your lawfully wedded husband?”
“I do.” I said, without hesitation.
“Well, I know pronounce you, husband, and wife. You may now kiss the bride” the priest finished, slamming his book. As he sat down, me and Drake leaned in, breaking apart just in time to dodge a bullet. I looked around. Everybody was screaming, some running out of the church. All except for one. Maddie's father was at the back. Maddie never talked about him. All she ever told me was that he tried to kill them all when they had been turned. Hence the moving around a lot.
“You killed my daughter you brats!” he screamed. I don't think he got how they died.
“Madeleine said you tried to kill them. Why know are you sad they are dead?” I told him.
“I never wanted her dead. I wanted her mother dead. She ruined there life’s, and mine. That bitch was dead to me, and know, you will be to.” he said as he raised the gun back up. As the gun screamed, I ducked, but it still hit me. I screamed out in pain, the bullet was silver. I fell backward, onto the ground in pain, not being able to move.
“Get him!” Drake snarled as he turned into the beautiful werewolf, and ran. Then he howled. It said. “Get a doctor, help my wife. Go, now.” it was directed at Leah and her mother as they were the ones that ran over, her mother on the phone. All I remembered after that was Drake coming back after Leah howled something and him kissing me. Then, it all went black, it seemed to me, all Maddie's problem's had not been carried to the grave after all.
Chapter 2
Drake
I waited in the hospital for ages. Leah was trying to comfort me, but it wasn't working. Abi was hit in the stomach, which means she could be dyeing, and I wasn't allowed in to see her until they were done. If I found Maddie's father, I would rip out his heart without a second thought. In the afterlife, Maddie was going to get it too. Why couldn't she just kill him?! Hang on, if she didn't kill him that means he couldn't be killed with ease. So how the hell am I supposed to do it?!
“AAHH!” the scream came from inside the room Abi was being kept in. I ran to the door, ducking underneath the doctors telling me I couldn't go in. I slammed open the door, seeing Abi under the covers, her stomach cut open, and the doctors trying to get the shards of silver out.
“ABI!” I screamed, running to her bed. She was in huge pain, I could see that. She was gritting her teeth even when she was breathing.
“Drake. It hurts. Make it stop. Please.” she slowly said. Her face pleaded, ripping out my heart because I couldn't.
“Abi, I can't. If it doesn't get pulled out now, it won't get pulled out at all and you'll die. I can't let you die, because I would die too.” I said so that she didn't get mad. And so she understood. But she began to cry. The tears welled up in her eyes and spilled out.
“Get out... Just leave!” she screamed at me, breaking my heart.
“Abi...”
“Drake, you have to leave, she won't let us get the rest out other wise. Come on.” Andy told me. He was my mate and the doctor. But I didn't want him to be right. But he always is. So I left. I might as well get a head start at catching the bastard that shot my wife.
“Abi?” I turned around, smelling her before she had even closed the door. She had been refusing to come home for a while, but she came round when Andy told her what I said.
“Drake, I'm sorry. I didn't understand what you were saying. I, it's just...” I cut her short by kissing her. And surprisingly, she kissed me back. I walked into the door of the bedroom, still entwined in the kiss. As she turned us around, she pushed me into the bed, pulling off my shirt at the same time. I grabbed her dress and ripped it off, leaving it on the floor, she pushed me all the way on to the bed before removing my trousers, at which point I was all ready pulling off her underwear
Abi
As we were both naked, I could feel Drake getting harder. I was defiantly getting wetter. As he pulled from the kiss, I joined it again, brushing up against him. Again, he stopped. I suddenly felt his fingers were they shouldn’t be. But I let him explore. For a while at least. “Drake, please. Just do it...” I stopped as he pulled me toward him, kissing me, and at long last entering me. Grinding his hips against mine, he give me as much of him as I could get. I really hoped he had realised I was in heat. I wanted a child. Which is why I picked the date I did to get married. Then we could have sex and get a child. But it didn't seem like he noticed. But at the moment all I cared about was us, and this moment...
As I woke up, I remembered the night I had just had. But then I remembered getting shot. And how much it fucking hurt. And the fight. As I lifted my head from the pillow, I heard a loud noise from downstairs. Then I realised drake wasn't in bed. I hurried putting some clothes on and ran to the source of the noise. All I saw when I got there was a bleeding and unconscious Drake, and Maddie's dad over him, silver in his hand...
I turned and ran at Maddie's father, ready to kill him for what he had done, when he flashed me a glare that told me we had to talk. So I padded behind him, making sure first that Drake was alive. When he sat down on the couch, I jumped up and curled in a ball waiting for him to speak. “Well. Hello. I’m sure you know who I am. Sorry, about yesterday Well anyway. Call me Jack. I have some, unfinished bissness with my wife, and I need  you to help me. I know your secret, but I'm guessing you haven't told anybody? You must help me. Please.” he told me, all at once, knowing I couldn't answer. I thought about it. I hadn't used my gift for a very long time, would it still work? I suddenly thought about seeing Maddie and Will. I nodded my head as the appeared behind them. I turned back to human form, grabbed my clothes and gave them both a hug.
“Will! Maddie! How are you guys!?” I said all at once.
“We are fine! We are all together up there, it's cool. To bad about your wedding though, the thug always has to ruin it, don't you Jack?! You just don't know how to not mess it up!” Maddie screamed at the couch were her father was sitting.
“Don't turn this around on me Madeleine! Your mother should have just left us all be! None of this would have happened then!” Jack screamed back. Then he added, “I never wanted to kill you. I only wanted to tell her that what she did was out of order. That I had a spell to fix it, but one day, her sent went dry. I retraced it, and a few days ago, I heard it on the news. I came to find Abigail so that she could get your mother down here so I could tell her I'm sorry.” he finished. Maddie and Will looked behind them at there mother. He couldn't see her, but I could.
“Jack, Abi, you might wanna duck...” Will said, just as a spear came from Irene's hand. As I ducked I pulled down Jack, just as it hit the door.
“That was close Irene. Do you mind almost taking my head off? Abigail. We need to talk.” Drake's voice said. I was in deep shit. But, hang on...
“How the hell can you see Irene... Unless I'm not the only one with a secret. You can see ghost's to?” I said, not believing what was coming from my mouth. All he did was nod, and walk away. He is so difficult some times, but I was going to get hit hard. This one, was not going to be easily forgotten...
Chapter 3
“ABI!” the slightly distant sounding Maddie screamed into my ear. As I woke up, I saw I was on the couch. I must have fallen asleep after I began to cry. Drake had disappeared, but so had Will, so I guessed he was in good hands. But why would Maddie be screaming at me?
“WHAT!? I'm sleepy, let me sleep!” I mumbled
“My stupid 'dad' wants you. Something about you helping him get mum's attention, without her wanting to kill him. Can you please do it. I want him to stop annoying me so I can go back to sleep.” was her reply.
“What's it like up there, in heaven?” I asked, trying not to sound to interested
“It's amazingly pretty. It's creamy-brown, the clouds are soft, you can choose were you are. We can come visit when ever. It's great. If anything, it's better then life was for me.” she began to look in the distance like remembering something great. I wished I was there. Nothing would be wrong then. But of course, it has to be, because a life as a werewolf can never be easy...
When I had reached Jack, he had his head in his hands, looking like he had lost everything, not meaning to. At least he wasn't in his daughters position She had killed all her family, or at least most of them. “Jack? Do you want me to leave, or do you want me to do this now? What?” I asked, trying not to sound annoyed and pissed off. He turned his head around. He looked like he was considering me.
“You know, Maddie was lucky to have met you. Your a nice girl. If only Irene would just, not try to kill me. Are you willing to help me?” he asked, the look in his eyes drawing me closer to him. All I did was nod. I sat down, took in a deep breath, and hoped for the best. When I opened them, Irene was next to me. I had only ever seen her once, but she was breath taking all the same. When I opened my mouth to speak she put her finger to her lips. I looked at Jack, he was oblivious to her presence. She must really have a grudge. I looked back at her, she was now pointing up stairs. “Erm, I think I'm gonna do this on my own, better that way. I'll come down if I have anything.” and at that, I left. I ran up stairs until I was out of site and considered it safe to talk. “Irene, nice to see you again.” was all I could come up with. She looked at me sadly I looked back with hate, anger and happiness, all in one.
“Hello, Abigail. It's nice to see you again too. Let's get to the point and aim of this conversation You want to help Jack? I don't want to talk to him. The aim is that we both understand each other, yes? And I'm happy to make you see sense, heaven is kind, they did not take away my powers...” she said, a small, freaky smile creeping into view.
“I'm fine, thanks. And yes. I do want to help him so that he will stop trying to kill me! Oh, and Drake! Will and him have gone off, trying to make sure he doesn't hate me forever! Because of him! All you have to do is restrain yourself from killing him while you talk, and then kill him! Please! I need this Irene. Drake will leave me forever otherwise, whether I'm his mate or not. Please, Irene.” she thought about it. Her features where concentrating on the wall. I think she was remembering all the good times she had had with Jack.
She stopped staring at the wall. “Fine. If that is what it takes.”
Chapter 4
Jack's face went wide with fear and happiness. Hard to place whether he thought he was about to die or whether he was going to finally be with his wife, the love of his life, or his after life. “Irene, you look, the same. I've missed you.” he said, with loss in his voice. He really didn't want to kill her, but that wasn't going to change Irene's mind.
“Jack. Don't try to suck up to me. I'm dead, what do you want from me now? Do you want the satisfaction of me being very, very dead? Or do you just want me to fucking kill you now?” she said, hate, anger and death in her distant voice.
“Abi, you said you talked to her?”
“She did! Doesn’t mean I didn't change my mind. All I said was I would try not to want to kill you at the moment. Doesn’t mean that once she turns away I won't kill you.” she replied with haste, not hesitating at all.
“Well, what I wanted to talk to you about for all these years is the fact that we could have turned them back to humans, they still could have had a life, if only you had listened to me!” He screamed in response.
“Well if she had, we would all be dead right know!” Maddie joined in from behind them.
“Madeleine, not now!” they both screamed at once.
“Irene, please, you have to understand, I never wanted you dead, I wanted to talk to you about changing them back! They should have grown to 1500017 years old! They shouldn't even have been given the chance to live forever, because all it did was tear you all apart!” Jack bellowed, I even think Leah could have heard it from 10 miles away.
“I did it for them, you can just shut up!” Irene added. She disappeared, not even I could see her.
“Erm, mum? Where'd you go?” Maddie said. We all turned our heads.
“Irene, don't, DON'T!” and that was Jack's last say in any matter...
Will walked in followed closely by Drake, who still looked fucked off and ready to kill me. Will and Maddie went over to the corner to talk to there now ghost dad. At least they were making progress. “So, Drake. Look, no, I mean, listen.” I stumbled on my words. “You can't be mad at me, we both kept the secret, if at all, I should be mad at you! If you bit me, which you did, you must have tasted the seer in me, you should have known, unless it wasn't you that bit me! I need the truth! If you didn't bite me, who did?!” I screamed at his face, tears streaming down my cheeks.
“I was the one that bit you. It's just that, it's the fact that you thought you had to keep it that makes me so pissed at you! I still love you, but something is holding me back. I know I'm the pack leader, but this doesn't happen to the Sun pack! Leah never sees Lewis Sun having to deal with this stuff, even if he doesn't have a mate!” he argued back. I couldn't think of anything to say, so I just kissed him. Surprisingly, he kissed me back. We held the kiss for as long as we could, not wanting anything like reality to seep back, but it did when Will came over.
“Abi, Drake, you guy's gonna be alright from now on?” Will asked, his human features seeping in. he was trying to smile, but failing. I knew this would be the last good-bye.
I looked at Drake and back at Will. “Yeah. I think we'll be ok. Oh, who am I kidding, come here!” I said, trying, and failing, to hold back my tears. I gave him a huge hug, before going over to Maddie. My tears turned into waterfalls. “I'm gonna miss you, so, damn freaking much.” I said as I went for a hug.
“I know. I'm gonna miss you to, Abi. I'll try to come visit?” she said, crying just as much, or more, as me.
I nodded. “Yeah, please. Oh my god. I can't believe this is the final good-bye. I can't help but think that if I had come to try and help you guys, that maybe you would all be alive. And I wouldn't be having to do this!” I cried as she pulled back from the hug.
“I know you do, but it's not your fault. It's mine. I should have just let them all die on me.” she muttered to me. She walked over to Will kissing him. They said there good-bye's to Drake before coming back to me. They held there fathers hand, and looked out to us. I walked over to Drake and hugged him tight.
“Oh, you guy's, that wedding, amazing. Or most of it. Oh, and enjoy the pups.” Maddie said as they began to walk up, and up, and up.
“Pups? Your pregnant? That's amazing!” Drake screamed and lifted me up, spinning me around. “Promise me no secrets from now?”
“I promise” I said, finishing with a kiss, which sealed everything...
