Now under his weight, I grew weak. My eyes closed as I tried to maintain a normal heart rate, getting my head into a spot where I could breath. Something had me puzzled, as the weight of the bear was removed. Wolves a few of them, their smell over powering and not from my pack. As I jumped to my feet, he tried to calm me. Something I hadn’t expected, he sounded like a Beta but didn’t act like one. He was almost fatherly to me, as he tried to smooth the situation out.Â
Honestly I just wanted to run away, other packs aren’t always friendly when you go tramping through their territory. It had been a stupid mistake, that could cost me my life. However as the conversation went on, I figured he wasn’t going to hard me. Just looking for information, but I wasn’t stupid. With any info I gave him, he could locate me. Giving out my pack info was stupid enough, know all he had to do was search for my face.Â
As I moved away, I tried to assure him I wasn’t going to tell anyone. Not that they would believe the dark forest was off limits. And if I had even mentioned going into it, I would be punished. It v a win, win for them. Walking back I could feel the boarder to my pack, the smell of someone I didn want to see hit me in the face.Â
“Where the hell have you been?” He growled grabbing my arm, and sending sparks through it. I hated him, and his stupid attitude. Pulling away I kept walking, not bothering to speak to theÂ
bastard.Â
“Damn it Fina, we have been looking for you” His pace stayed in line with mine.Â
“Shouldn’t of bothered” Keeping my growl contained. The fire came into view, along with a ton of pack members. My parents being two of them, when my mother saw me she sighed in relief. However my father was giving me a death glare, as his arms covered his torso.Â
“Fina where did you go?” I mother asked, coming to my side.Â
“For a walk” Shrugging.Â
“That’s a vague answer, you stepped out of the boarder why?” Jex snapped. As if I had to answer him, I huffed.Â
“Didn’t want to be bothered” Looking at my mom, instead of him. Stomping behind us was my father, his rage hadn’t dissipated even a little. I knew I’d get an ear full when we got home, but really I’d just tune it out. Opening our door, walking in I sat down at the kitchen table. Waiting for my parents to finish talking to the Alpha’s son, who was acting like he really gave two shits. Scoffing I pulled my shoes off, tossing them to the wall.Â
With my parents inside, my mother looked grey as my father paced.Â

“Do you have any idea what you’ve done?” He snapped, pointing his finger at me. Keeping quiet was a sure way, to get him madder.Â
“Yes” Bowing my head, as if I was ashamed.Â
“You made the whole pack, look for you. Put your mother in an emotional state, and had the Alpha’s son freaking out” I almost laughed at that one. If he only knew, he’d probably still side with the stupid boy. My mother drummed, a little as she touched his arm.Â
“Let me talk with her dear” Soothing his soul, he grumbled before storming out of the house.Â
“Fina, what happened baby?”Â
“Nothing” Shaking my head, as I tried to forget my wolf wasn’t around to help me.Â
“Honey, something had to of happened. Why else would you just wander off?” She pulled her c closer to mine, resting a hand on my leg. I broke a little, as I watched a wet droplet hit my jeanÂ
“Fina?” Lifting my chin.Â
“I don’t want to talk about it” Biting my lip. Her matching grey eyes, showed pain as I saw her nod.Â
“Alright.” Pulling me into a hug.Â
“Go get cleaned up, and get some rest” Nodding I pushed my chair back in, and headed for myÂ
shower.Â
With myself taken cared of, I was going to grab something to eat. That is till I heard my parents talking, leaning against the wall I ease dropped.Â
“Something’s wrong John, she’s detached?” My mother whined.Â
“Detached how?” He huffed, relaxing in his chair.Â
“Her wolf, its not showing its self. Almost like she’s hiding. I just know something happened at the bon fire” She sat on the arm of his chair, as he thought in silence.Â
“You really couldn’t feel her wolf?” My mother shook her head. With a long sigh, he rubbed herÂ
back.Â
“She’ll come around” Tears stained my eyes, as I headed back to my room. Not even my own father, gave a shit. I’ll come around, he says as if it was just something minor like a boyfriend break up. That night I sat looking out my window, watching the stars. As one streaked across the black sky, I made a desperate wish. For someone to come for me, to make my life more fulfilling and exciting. As my eyes grew heavy, I rested in the window dreaming the only thing I could think ofÂ
