I held my head as I went down the stairs. I was having a horrible headache.

"Grandma," I called.

I needed Advil or any pill for a headache. The pain was too much to bear. My head felt like someone hit me in the head with a baseball bat, hard.

I didn't hear her answer.

"Grandma," I again called.

Still, no answer.

I started calling for Zira. I, too, didn't hear her as well.

I went into the kitchen expecting to see them both preparing breakfast, but the kitchen was empty. And there wasn't any breakfast prepared; the stove felt cold.

"Grandma, Zira!" I searched everywhere in the 2-story house. They were both nowhere to be found.

I ran outside to check to see if the car was in the garage; it was gone. They had gone out.

As I was about to return inside. I heard a car. I spun around. My puffy eyes squinted, blocking out the morning sunlight. Two cars were coming towards me. I knew the first car. It was Grandma's, but for the second car, I didn't.

I went back to the step that

    Freya Why does time fly by so fast when you don't want it to? It was already Monday, my first day at The School of the Forgotten. I closed the door of my new car, laying my backpack next to me. I soon heard a tap on the window. It was Zira. I rolled down the window. She handed me a lunch box. "You didn't have to," I told her. "What if you don't like the lunches there?" she worried. I took it and thanked her. She and Grandma waved goodbye as I drove from the house and onto the road. It took me 10 minutes to arrive at the school. A large school that looked like a century-old Catholic building. The school was dark brown, and the sides of the glass windows were painted white. I took a deep breath and exhaled slowly before exiting the car. I was going to be the new kid, and I felt uneasy. I fixed my curly hair and walked straight into the building. I had my file from my previous school to help me settle in. "Excuse me, can you show me the administration area?" I asked a security

    Freya History class went on for 2 hours, and as it ended, I noticed him rushing from the classroom as he couldn't stand to be there any longer. "Hey, I'm Dolly; you must be, Ms. Zoey and Zira relative, aren't you?" A red-headed female with green eyes and freckles came up to my desk as I packed my bag. "Yes," I retorted. "They and my grandma are very close friends. Do you want to have lunch with me and my friends?" she asked. I scanned her from head to foot, noticing the design of her purple, yellow, and white cheerleading uniform along with her white Nike sneaker. I couldn't believe a girl like her, who seemed popular, wanted to have lunch with me. "I'm sorry if I seemed too much, she said as she grabbed her bag, assuming I had no interest in her. I was just surprised by the fact that she wanted to be my friend. I'm a nobody. "You're not; I'll have lunch with you," I told her. She smiled and took me by the hand, leading me from the classroom. I had never really had someone to

    Jurius "Hey, Jurius!" I heard my brother from behind. I kept walking, knowing what he wanted. He gained on me next to my car. "What did you say to that human girl that made her cry?" he asked, concerned. "None of your business," I told him angrily as I went into my car and drove off quickly. From my rear mirror, I noticed dust rising from my speed. Tate coughed, fanning it away. He stood watching my car until it was out of his sight. I didn't feel like going home, so I went to one of my favorite spots. A place that always seemed to give me peace. I sat on the large hill looking down into the ocean, and a thought of jumping in came to me; everything would have ended. I wouldn't have to kill my soulmate, and no one would know about her. I couldn't do it. I couldn't dare put my family and my pack through grief. Tears of anger and frustration emerged in my eyes. "Why her!" I yelled to the sky. I cried. I shouldn't be crying, but the pain of disappointment was too much. I thought

    Freya I poked the steak, not feeling hungry. "You've seemed so distant ever since you've returned from school," grand aunt Zira said as she studied me from across the table. "I'm okay," I said. "I'm going upstairs to do my homework," I told her, not having the appetite to eat anything. She nodded. Again, I lied; I never got any homework. I just felt the need to be alone. I closed the door of my room and went to sit beside the window, leering into the forest. I didn't understand why he was so mad at me when I had done nothing wrong. Hot tears formed in my eyes, rolling down my cheeks, remembering that for many years my mom had wrongly blamed me for Dad leaving her. What if he, too, mistakenly vented his anger out on me as well? I feel as if I was born with a curse—bad luck for taking someone else's blame. I was starting to believe it. I heard a knock on the door. "I'm coming." I quickly wiped away my tears. I opened the door. "Your grand aunt and I are going to a friend's

    Jurius A tree tumbled down with one punch. I was so angry. I'd decided to kill her and bury her body where no one would find her, but seeing how broken she was, I couldn't. It was too difficult to Instead, I felt a strong urge to protect her, to take away her pain, and to make her happy. I despised it, but I wanted to. My father must be worried about me. I went for clothes I had hidden under the tree in case of emergency. I was naked; I put it on and went home. As I arrived home, I saw the entire pack leaving. "Dad is allowing us to sleep in the forest under a bonfire tonight," Kathara said excitedly. Being partly wolves, we loved being out in the open, around Mother Nature. I wasn't in the mood to attend this time. I walked past everyone entering the home, heading upstairs to my room. "Jurius," I heard my father say. I didn't stop; I just kept walking. I slammed my door as I got into my room. I was filled with so much rage. My eyes kept flashing uncontrollably into my wolf's.

    Freya I couldn't stop thinking of Jurius saving me and how fast he ran into the forest right before I could turn back around to look at him. He was so fast. His speed didn't seem human at all. I also couldn't figure out why he was at my house. I was worried. He knew I was committing suicide by jumping from my window. What if he tells someone? I couldn't risk anyone finding out. In history class, I looked at the seat where I first saw him. He wasn't there. At lunch, I didn't see him either, just his brother and the others. Throughout the day, all I could think about was him. The memory of him catching me in his arms, how close we were as we stared into each other's eyes, and the feeling of the comfortable warmth of his body. Every time I'm reminded of him, I feel butterflies in my stomach. Was I truly falling for him? I've never fallen in love. I am too scared to, seeing how bad-lucked my mom and her family are with men. I didn't know whether to think of it. The last class for

    JuriusAfter discovering who my cursed human soulmate was, Dad stopped me from going to school for a while. He didn't want anyone within the pack to be suspicious of why I had done so, and so he made it seem I had more training to help me prepare to one day take on the pack.I'd been in the packs' gyms for hours for the past few days I've been absent from school, working out. I worked so hard that I felt I had overworked myself. My dad would often tell me to take it easy; it is so hard. Every time I sat down for a rest, all I could think about was her. I was starting to become worried about her. I wanted to put that feeling aside. It was not good for me.Dad was returning to the gym.I stopped working out and grabbed a towel to wipe away the sweat from my face.He was not alone; Uncle Lennox was with him as well."How many push-ups have you done?" Uncle Lennox asked. I could sense sadness within him as he tried to lighten the mood, as he always does.At that moment, I knew Dad had told

    Jurius Like the love two wolf shifters had for each other when paired by the moon goddess. I had that same deep affection for her; the only difference was that she wasn't one of us, and it was wrong. A human and a wolf shifter can never be together. That has been the rule for hundreds of years and will remain unchangeable. I felt miserable fighting the love I had for her. I felt like I was fighting myself. "I thought it was teamwork to get rid of her," I said, covering my lies. If Dad only knew how badly I was starving for her—to touch her, to be next to her—every single night instead of going off to bed, I secretly watched her from her window as she cried, desiring that one day I could put an end to her tears. Dad gave me a grave look. "For a minute, I thought you were accepting her as your soulmate," he said. "Never!" I retorted, lying again. He and Uncle Lennox kept looking at me as if they didn't believe me. I knew they were listening for a sudden rise in my heartbeat. Over

    FreyaThe day I was upset with Dolly, and angrily stormed off from school. I didn't go to school the next day. I lied to my grandmother that I felt too sick to attend school. I was too worried to go, knowing that Jurius would see the werewolf councils. I feared that they would never accept Jurius and me being together. I'm glad they did.Jurius wasn't at school yet, so I looked for Dolly. I needed to apologize to her for how I treated her.Two of her close friends, Becky and Tamara, were chatting by their lockers."Hi. Do you know where I can find Dolly?""She's not here yet." Tamara answered."Thanks." I walked off."Freya." Becky stopped me.I turned to look at her."What is going on between you and Dolly? She's been down since the day you drove off upset." Becky was curious."I can't say. But everything will be fine between us pretty soon," I reassured them.They nodded, and I went to wait in the parking area for Dolly.I was leaning against a wall when her pink Porsche was driven

    JuriusWe held hands as I followed her home."This is my stop here?" I halted, causing her to stop as well."Please stay a little longer with me." She gently squeezed my hand, not wanting me to leave."I can't."I wanted to, but my head kept ringing with my dad calling me telepathically, wanting me to come home."When will I see you again?" Her hand let go of mine, and it folded.I drew closer to her."Tomorrow, when I return from the wolf shifter councilors,"Her eyes closed as I leaned in to kiss her forehead, and they opened as I stood straight."Promise?" she said."With all of my heart."She smiled for a while until it disappeared with worries."I hope they'll allow us to be together.""Me too." My arms were wrapped around her.Dad was standing on the porch, anxiously waiting for me to return."Finally, you're here," he said telepathically as he spotted me.He left the porch and met me in the middle of our land."Why were you taking so long?" He shoved me across the land, sending

    Freya"It has been the rule for many years that a human and a wolf shifter can never be together. But today we've been amazed by something we thought never existed again. Visit the werewolf council elders tomorrow evening. Probably they will have no choice but to spare your human mate since your title as the alpha of all alpha is far greater than there's," said the one in silver.And as he walked away, he respectfully gave a nod to both Jurius and his dad.Jurius quickly brought me inside and placed me in the living room. He was soon returning with an ice pack. I watched him as he sat before me and placed the small ice pack on my forehead. Concerned, his eyes never left my forehead.I just kept staring into his face, not knowing whether I should be happy for him that his status as a wolf shifter from being a future alpha of his pack changed immensely to become an alpha of all alphas or whether I should be scared of him. He was more powerful, and the mightiness of his growl terrified m

    FreyaI should have driven home, called my mom, and started packing. Instead, I parked my car where no one could find it and walked along the forest to Jurius's home. It was a bad idea what I was doing, but how could I leave without saying goodbye?I spotted a male wolf shifter as I got onto the land, an elder of the pack. He stopped what he was doing to look at me. Nervously, I walked to find Jurius."What are you doing here?" I flinched and became motionless at the loud shout.I knew who it was; it was the alpha, Jurius's father.Like a plant held firmly in the ground, I stood straight as I felt his unwelcome presence go around me, and he towered above me as he stood before me."What-are-you-doing-here-human?" he again asked, sharply repeating his question."I need to see Jurius," I said, terrified of him."He's not here," he growled as one of his hands reached out to grab me."Don't hurt her!" I heard Jurius.The alpha hand was kept away from me, and I watched Jurius as he ran from

    FreyaI wanted to turn back around, but my vehicle stopping in front of the driveway somehow allowed her to know I'd arrived.A bad feeling ran through my gut as she exited the door and stood on the porch.Carefully, I drove the car along the driveway, and I took five minutes before leaving the vehicle.If Jurius hadn't been waiting for me in my room, I would have turned the car around and driven away.I know why my mom was here; it was because of what had happened to me.My head lowered, not wanting to see her face as I walked to the house."Hey honey," she stopped me on the first step to the porch, causing my head to be raised.In her eyes, which were as dark as mine, I could see guilt. I know she didn't want to be here and that she was because of Zara and Grandma."Mom," I said in my throat as I went inside.Whatever she was here to say, I wasn't interested or cared to know."Are you doing much better since what happened?" I heard her as I opened the front door.I was so angry at h

    FreyaTime flies by so fast when you're spending time with someone you're madly in love with.Jurius and I sat down on the grass, and his arms were wrapped around me while I lay on his chest."I wish we didn't have to leave now," he said, holding me tighter in his arms."Me too," I said softly as my head lifted to his.I smiled and my eyes closed as he kissed my forehead, and as he did, the pain of being separated from him once more arose inside my heart. My head went to my left breast as I now felt one of Jurius's arms resting on my heart, as if he had felt the pain as well, and my gaze steadily went back to him."I hate being away from you as well, he confessed. I wish you could dwell with me along with the pack, so I could always be with you, even when you are asleep.""I wish I was a wolf shifter," I now yearned to be, and then I would always be by his side."Don't say that!" Jurius detested what I had said."I wish nothing else of you, for you are the perfect mate for me," he tol

    Freya P.O.VAfter seeing Jurius yesterday, I couldn't wait for the next day to see him again.Before going downstairs, I arranged my long, curly hair.When I walked into the kitchen, Zira and my grandma were both surprised to find that I was going to school."You cannot go to school today," Zira announced, and my grandmother agreed."I'm fine," I said as I began to make myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for breakfast.They watched me with concern as I finished making my sandwich. I took a big bite and went into the fridge, pouring myself out a half full of orange juice."Make sure you take your supplements," my grandmother reminded me.I nodded.Three of the supplements were in my pocket. I removed them from my pocket and swallowed them together with the rest of the orange juice and some water."Goodbye; I'll see you later." I was rushing from the kitchen."Freya, wait," Zira stopped me. She gave me an apple and a banana."You can eat these whenever you feel hungry," she said.

    FreyaI was awakened in the hospital, and I caught sight of a needle jammed into the front of my elbow. I discovered I was hooked up to a drip. My grandma, who was sitting next to me in the room, noticed I'd gotten up and promptly stood up."I'm going to get the nurse," she said as she stormed out the door.Shortly after, she returned with a nurse.I watched as the nurse connected me to a new bag of drips."Dr. Weather will be here soon," the nurse said to my grandmother before leaving.My grandmother approached me and softly touched my face. And my gaze was drawn to her."Why are you causing yourself harm by dealing with your problems on your own, child?" she asked, concerned.My attention shifted away from her."Can't you see my sister and I are willing enough to help you? Why are you refusing to accept it? She stated."You can't help me," I wailed, removing her hand from my cheek."Please give us a chance," my grandmother begged.It never occurred to me that my actions were having

    FreyaSince Jurius's departure, I've not ceased to cry. My grandmother and Zira had returned home to find me lying on the floor, drenched in tears.They surrounded me with their concerns."What happened, Freya? Why are you crying? My grandmother asked, disturbed, as she embraced me in her arms.I couldn't tell her.She and Zira supported me on the bed, and I curled into a ball.Screams suddenly took over my room.My grandmother sprinted downstairs, and Zira sat next to me, assuring me that everything would be okay.For a little while, I felt as if I were unconscious. I had no clue what had transpired."Why were you screaming? I asked as I tried to sit up, but Zira demanded that I not."You had a fit from crying too long," she then explained."But don't worry," she again assured me."Your grandmother has gone to call the family doctor.""I don't need a doctor," I tried to tell her as my eyes closed tiredly.My cheeks and back of my head were all sore from crying for so long, but the pa
