Chapter .2.

The most beautiful stories,

always start with wreckage.

~Jack London

The females smile at me. Accept me. They think that because I don't want to train, I am accepting my role in staying back, finding a mate, and letting him control my life.

Mate.

I'm not sure I will have one.

Not sure if when he finds me.

He will want me.

I look at their disapproving eyes as they take in my paint splattered hands.

"Lexie, why don't you wash those?" The Luna shakes her head. She doesn't approve. She thinks I waste my time.

But she hasn't seen me paint.

I look down at my red, orange and yellow.

Mixtures of brown. Some white can be seen.

Autumn.

I was painting fall.

I look up and smile, "I've tried, but it's so hard to get it off," the females laugh. The Luna shakes her head but leaves it be.

The truth is I haven't tried.

Because I like the color.
