Changing into high-waisted shorts and a crop top, Allison and I got into mom's car and drove to Matt's house. We picked him up and we made our way to the warehouse.

Matt dragged me onto the dance floor right away and I shrugged. I might as well have a good time. After wrapping my arms around Matt's neck, I danced. But then I felt hands on my hips, pulling me back. "Derek wouldn't like this." Issac said in my ear.

"Well Derek isn't here, is he?" I replied, before Matt pulled me back and away from Issac,

I heard the werewolf growl behind me before pushing Matt out of the way and grabbing my arms, "I know you, Maddie. And I know you don't want him." Issac said,

"Why do you care?!" I yelled,

"Because I care about you, Maddie." He leaned in and I pushed him away, "I can't do this, Issac. I'm sorry." I left Issac and went back to Matt, apologizing for Issac. He gave me a smile before we continued to dance,

"He belongs to me." I heard in the sea of sounds.

"Jackson." I mumbled,

"What?" Matt asked.

"Nothing. I'm, uh, gonna go to the bathroom real quick." I smiled at Matt before disappearing through the crowd.

I looked around and noticed Issac and Erica on the floor, and Jackson walking towards a woman with a murderous look on his face. While growing claws, I made my way towards him. I sliced my claws across his chest and he glared at me. Then I saw Issac come up behind him with a needle. Injecting it in his neck, Jackson fell back.

Issac looked at me with wide eyes, noticing my purple ones. Snarling at him, I backed away into the crowd. I ran past Matt, who was calling my name, and went outside. I heard gunshots and a pain in my body,

"Derek."

Feeling out of control, I quickly took off my shorts and my shirt just before shifting.

*THIRD PERSON POV*

A wolf ran towards the back of the building were gunshots came from. Spotting Gerard's men with guns, it growled.

"What the-" The first man began to speak before the wolf pounced on him. Sinking its' claws into his chest, he screamed. Gunshots rang out and the wolf turned to the other men. The wolf ran towards them and they shot the wolf, skimming its' shoulder. Just as the wolf tackled another man, it was shot in the side. Whimpering in pain, the wolf felt the wolfsbane enter its' system.

Boyd ran out from behind and tackled Gerard's men. The wolf took the distraction gratefully and limped away.

*MADDIE POV*

I gasped in pain, pulling my shirt over my head. My bullet wound was in pain, and it wasn't healing. Hearing a roar, my eyes flashed purple, "Scott."

I went back towards the building, but Matt stopped me. "Hey, I've been looking everywhere for you." Police sirens blared in the background, "We should get out of here."

He grabbed my arm and we made our way to the car, "What about Allison?" I asked,

"She went with Scott." Matt answered.

Arriving at Matt's house, I turned the car off and sighed, "So what's going on with you and Issac? Are you guys-you guys together or-or what?" Matt questioned.

"Would you understand if I said it was complicated?" I answered,

"Not really. But I'll try." Matt replied before getting out.

I looked over to the passenger seat and saw Matt's camera. Grabbing it, I looked through the photos. At first there were a few lacrosse photos, then there were photos of me. I gasped, seeing my eyes. It was like the flash was on, and my eyes were reflecting the flash, except it was purple. Then I went farther back, and my eyes were normal. It must've been before I turned. I was standing in my bedroom, window open, without my shirt on.

There was a tap on the window and I let out a small scream. Looking over, I saw Matt. "Forgot my bag." He chuckled,

"Yeah, yeah." I mumbled, and he grabbed his stuff,

"Some good pictures in there, don't you think?" Matt asked, looking at the camera,

"Yeah, the lacrosse ones are amazing. You're really talented. I was-I was-I was really impressed." I smiled,

"There is a good candid of you in there too."

"Really?" I asked,

"You can see some of the others if you'd like. I mean, this-this tiny little screen doesn't really do it justice, but, uh, I could show you some on my computer." Matt offered,

"Oh, I would totally like that, but maybe another night." I said,

"Well, just for a few minutes." He replied,

"It's getting kind of late." I responded,

"It's the weekend."

" I know, but I-You know, I-" I stuttered,

"And it's spring break. I mean, you don't have a thing going on tomorrow. Do you?" Matt asked,

"I should really get going." I stated,

"You sure?"

"I'm sure."

"Okay." Matt backed up and I left the driveway quickly, making my way home.

"How was your date?" Allison joked, sitting on my bed.

"Matt's a stalker." I stated and her eyes widened,

"What? Stalker?"

I nodded, "He took a bunch of photos of me."

"Maybe you're just a good model."

"There was a few of me in my room. Without a shirt." I said,

"Okay, maybe he is a stalker." Allison replied,

I turned to my window, seeing it wide open. I stomped over to it and slammed it down and closed the curtains. I turned to my sister, "Derek will not find out about this, okay?"
