Summary: How does a girl, who never felt as though she belonged anywhere, find her place in a world she never even knew existed? The choice is hers to make. Either deny the very nature of her new reality or find strength in what frightens her most. Neither path promises a happy ending but, maybe, for better or for worse, she will find the home she's craved her entire life.

One day you're a normal girl, peeved off at your family, seeking adventure and freedom, and head-over-heels in love with the proverbial bad boy, and the next you find out the the people you call friends are, literally, wolves in sheep's clothing. When the world of the "impossible" falls straight into your lap, how do you react? Do you accept it with open arms and an open mind? Or do you run away? Again.
