Chapter 14 - Beth's Moon
Beth was tense. The full moon was rising tonight, and she was worried. Nick had had first change on the last moon but, unlike her twin, Beth hadn't. She knew her father loved her, but she worried about disappointing him by not carrying the legacy of the wolf. Her skin felt too tight.
It was Nick's idea to call Jake and Miranda over and head down to the lake. To distract her, he said.
Right Nick. No other motives at all.

She ran and ran and ran, for the pure joy of running under the moon.

Morning found her back on the rock, watching the sun rise and smelling all the scents on the breeze.

A new scent caught her attention. "Miranda?" Beth turned. "What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to see if you were OK," Miranda said. "Nick said you were going up here last night and I thought you might come back when... when you were done. How... I mean... what is it like."
"It's terrifying... and thrilling," Beth said. "Wonderful and horrible and just amazing. I feel... like myself. Really myself, for the first time."

"Thank you," Beth added. "For coming up to check on me."
"Hey, what are friends for?" Miranda smiled.
