The Lycan's Soul Mate
chapter 4 A New Friend

Soccorah walked down the aisle to her Anatomy class to take a seatwhen she noticed this beautiful young lady seated at the front of theclass. She was mesmerized by her beauty. Soccorah was a looker herselfbut there was something about that girl that just set her apart. Shewalked into the class and walked past Luna to take a seat behind her.Her eyes were as blue as the most beautiful ocean's waters, her hairand brows were white as snow and flawlessly long reaching her broadhips. Not a strand out of place. She was a size 4 and was so beautifulthat she didn't seem human. Her butt was beautiful. “OMG she’s goteverything, looks, ass, hips; everything a woman needed to have guysgroveling.”

“Stop it!” she said to herself. Soccorah surprised herself with heradmiration of this girl. “The hell is your problem. You're not even adude admiring this girl as if you were one.” She smiled to herself as shestarted to take her books from her back pack to get ready for class. Shethought to herself how she had promised to make the best of thisschool year. She really had to get her ducks in a row if she were to dowell. Anatomy was not her strong suit. She definitely would be needingsome help with it if she were to get the grades that she needed.

Luna looked toward the entrance of her anatomy class as she got afaint hint of the scent which had captivated her earlier throwing her offbalance when a beautiful red-haired girl walked into the class room.She was not surprised that that she had traces of the scent as this girlwas a knock out and of course this enticing masculine scent must havea relationship with her. Though disappointed Luna looked at the girl asshe walked right past her to take her seat.

She was the most beautiful red-haired girl that she ever saw. This girlwas about her size and about 5' 4” with beautiful green eyes. “What acombination” Luna thought to herself as she jealously admiredSoccorah and the fact that she must have a relationship to this scentdidn’t make it any easier to stop admiring her. This girl had a certain airof authority around her. I wonder if she would want to be my friend.“Ughh” she thought to herself as she realized that friends weresomething that she was lacking and never had a good track recordwhen it came to making or keeping friends.

She was taken back to a memory of her years of childhood when herfriend Hailey and stopped talking to her when she wanted to be friendswith a group of popular middle school girls and made fun of her whitehair along with them. They became friends again in high school actuallybest friends. At least that's what she thought until the night of her 17thbirthday when she'd spiked Luna's drink and filmed her making a foolof herself to the point where Luna had gotten so upset that she coulddo nothing but run away into the nearby woods where she felt likeshe'd become a large white wolf. Luna remembered feeling the need tohunt but then she awoke stark naked the next morning with blood onher hands and face as he looked at herself in the waters of the pondShe quickly washed herself up and started to run. Until she passed out.When she awoke, she found herself in a police car covered with ablanket. They cop questioned her and then took her home to her momand stepdad who were so upset.

Hailey had started to drift when a few months before her birthday Lunahad somnambulism episode and awoke in Hailey's yard covered in dirt.Hailey apparently thought that she was weird and decided to finally sether up to end their friendship which she finally managed after the stuntshe pulled on Luna's 17th birthday.

And in a nutshell that actually made her trust people a lot less than shealready did. But.... She did make herself a promise that she would makethe best of her years at college. So maybe she should give it a try. Shefelt drawn to this new girl. Ut she was not entirely sure whether sheshould try to talk to her or if she did whether she wouldn't embarrassher or hell she probably thought that she was weird.

Luna had started to turn her head to say hi but quickly changed hermind. “If she wants to talk to you, she will. So, in the meantime keepyour mouth shut before you ruin your entire college life.” She thoughtto herself. “But it would be so great to at least make one friend on yourfirst day. Least I would have one thing pleasant to talk about at dinner.”She shrugged wile touching he long white hair. “Why didn't you at leastcolor this hair. It's gonna be the death of you. Yeah right.” She mutteredas she remembered also promising to be herself and not changinganything about herself to please anyone. “If they can't like all of youthen they're not worth your time.” She took a deep breath and relaxedRight then Soccorah had asked a chubby girl sitting next to Luna toswitch seats with her. The girl gladly agreed. “Hi, I'm Soccorah.” Shesaid extending a hand out to her. Flabbergasted by the gesture, Lunatook hold of her hand. “I'm Luna. Pleased to make your acquaintance.”She replied. Soccorah smiled warmly at her thinking to herself how wellthis went. “God your hair is so beautiful. Is it your natural color? Alwayswanted to color mine white but not bold enough.” Luna smiled shylynot knowing whether Soccorah was being genuine or just gatheringammunition to make a fool of her like Hailey had. But what the hell. “Itis natural. Somehow, I never got around to coloring it. I had been sobusy you know getting ready for school.”

Before the conversation could ensue, they were interrupted by theirAnatomy teacher who greeted the class and delved right in to the topicat hand. Luna was very happy to have become more or less acquaintedwith one person even though she had no idea how she was tied to thescent that filled up her senses and practically hypnotized her.

She was happy to be at school and to have seemingly made one newfriend who seemed genuine. She hoped that Soccorah was genuine asshe sooo needed a good friend. She thought about all the things thatshe had been through. She had lost her father a few years ago. She hadnever known her mother as she was raised by her father's girlfriendwho never saw the need to legally adopt her. All her legal stuff wastaken care of by a friend of her stepdads’ from social services.

For the lie of her she never understood why her stepmom had neverlegally adopted her. She had not given up on her after her dad died butit would have been nice to belong. It was thinking about these thingsthat made her miss her parents so much. She had started feeling like acomplete stranger after the incident that happened on her birthdaywhen they choose to believe that she had self esteem issues and set herup with a shrink.

That was the incident that had caused her to start longing for biologicalfamily. She had secretly hoped that she had family out there with whomshe could relate. It was not so much her stepmom but more herstepdad. When she had been brought home naked and dirty by thosepolice officers that embarrassed him as he was a police officer himself.Luna wanted to tell them what actually happened but they would neverunderstand and probably have her committed. Who would believe thatshe got upset, ran into the woods and turned to an animal? Yup shewould definitely be committed. They'd lock her up and throw away thekeys. She needed to act as normal as possible and she needed to replace away to control the transformations if they ever happened again. All inall, Luna was happy to have found a friend. She decided to make thebest of it. She may even color her hair if needs be to seem morenormal
