Chapter 1: Meet the Laufy'etts
Doctor Esther Laufy'ett would not consider herself beautiful by any stretch of the imagination. She was five foot four inches tall, not that she consider her height to be of any real note as she was not exceptionally tall nor exceptionally short. Her hair was dark blonde and long though she mostly kept it pulled back into a tight military bun to keep it out of the way. Her eyes were the only thing she liked about her own appearance. They were a beautiful shade of pine green, a genetic mutation that she had passed on to her daughter. Her skin was ivory pale. Her features were small and delicate. At 33 her weight was finally recovering from the eating disorder she had suffered from since she was sixteen. Esther's waist was small and her breasts were pleasantly round as were her hips, something her husband, Derik Laufy'ett, was constantly bragging about to all his marine buddies. At times going far enough as to encourage them to hit on her.
As for Derik, he was a very large man. At six foot seven no stretch of the imagination would ever make this 36 year old man small in any way shape or form. He was certainly the polar opposite of his small delicate wife. He was a very dark ebony and had black hair that he kept high and tight, a habit from his days in the spec ops of the marine Corp. However it served the purpose of warding off anyone who would even dare to be a threat to the small family. He was built like a nuclear survival bunker. A fact that his step daughter constantly made fun of. And his light inked tattoos were marine memorabilia. One that was plastered on his left breast in white had a seemingly unimportant date and the words never forget. While another had his enlistment date and the words Semper Fildes. To any one who did not know the man he was intimidating. To the point that many of Esther's friends had told her not to marry him for fear she would be physically abused. But that had been the day she came home and joked about losing a wapping 220 pounds of dead weight.
Kathrine Everson was the youngest in the Laufy'ett family at 17. She had long thick curly hair the color of blood. Currently it was done in intricate Dutch braids. She had paler skin than her mother but shared her eye color. While Kathrine would never admit to it, she hated her own appearance. Her oversized breasts small waist and sensually shaped hips had made her an outcast among the wolves her age. Male werewolves her age wanted her to share their beds, and when they found out she was not like that they joined the she wolves in bullying her. This led to her having many older and already mated wolf friends. Mated males didn't hit on her and their partners liked the benefit of free babysitting. Kathrine had always noticed things others wouldn't. Her over developed perception had saved her life on more than one occasion, and not just hers.
Kathrine didn't date. If she did the boy would expect something she was not willing to give. She was waiting for that special kind of love that all her friends had. And she was never invited to human parties, or any party for that matter. Just fancy dinner parties with her friends. The Laufy'etts were quite popular among the upper class crowd and many of her classmates parents had tried to strike a match with their sons. A fact that Derik Laufy'ett hated with a passion. Especially since they all believed him to be nothing more than a body guard for her. It always irritated him that no one believed he had won the heart of a woman like Esther. And when they found out that he was married to her, they sought to protect her daughter by kidnapping and entrapment. Esther never said anything but he knew certain people were not allowed around Kathrine for that reason. And others for far worse reasons. Derik had never met Mathew Everson, but he had resolved years ago that no one would find that bastards body if he ever did. Esther was smart beautiful and strong. Having put herself through medical school while working full-time and being a full-time parent to Kathrine. She graduated medical school top of her class with a specialization in werewolf medicine. She loved being a trauma surgeon in the emergency room., and the added pressure of working closely with werewolves always thrilled her. It made her feel alive and needed.
As for the oldest Laufy'etts, Grandpa Darren and Grandma Ruth. They were quiet observant people and welcoming to their sons family from day one. Grandma Ruth had taught Kathrine to cook and sew, while Grandpa Darren had taught her the importance of seeing everything and saying little. The Laufy'ett men had been the first example of true masculinity that Kathrine had and they would always have a special place in Her heart. But this is not their story.
