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
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
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
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
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
Freya If I had a choice to become an animal, it would likely be a wolf. Not just any wolf, but a lovely she-wolf with snow-white fur and sky-blue eyes. I'm sure I'd be OK. As much as my love life. If I'm fortunate enough to have one. It would not be as tragic and agonizing as my mother's. Tears streamed down my cheeks from my eyes. It tickled my skin and drove me to respond by wiping it away from my face, but more tears streamed down as I did so. It was something that happened all the time before going to bed. It was similar to a bedtime routine. I'd stand by my bedroom window, staring out at the moon in the dark sky, and it would end with me begging the moon to turn me into a wolf, as if the moon had ears to hear before going to sleep. I used to laugh at myself for being crazy and having a big imagination from reading too many romance wolf-shifter novels. I believed it to be true. Before heading downstairs, I got out of bed and went to the bathroom mirror. I would check to see if m
Freya It was futile for me to beg my mother to let me stay. She'd already decided to depart with Jack first thing tomorrow morning. I packed my stuff while in tears. "Are you done yet?" my mother inquired, leaning against my door. I threw my last pair of clothes into the suitcase and zipped it closed, not reacting to her. "I called Mom and Zira, and they are overjoyed to have you," she let me know. The suitcase crashed hard on the floor near my bed, and I dragged it past her outside to the car. She followed me. "Fine, I'll put up with your immature behavior. "I've been dealing with it for years," she complained as she closed the front seat of the automobile and buckled her seat belt. When I saw Jack approaching the automobile, I rolled my eyes. "Are you certain you don't want me to accompany you? It'll be lonely coming home alone," Jack said, lowering his head to hers. "I'll be fine, babe," my mother assured him as she kissed him. I felt like I wanted to hurl. I was so glad
Freya The moon is remarkable considering that it is constantly visible in the sky, no matter where you are. It's almost like it's keeping an eye on us. Why are the things that are out of your reach the ones that are closest to you? Like the sun, moon, and stars, but the ones closest to us appear to be the furthest away. I cried by the window the first night in my new house, just like I did at home. Looking up at the half-shiny moon in the sky. I didn't hide my puffy, red eyes from wailing all night in the morning when I went downstairs. There was no need to because what had happened to me was too sudden. As I walked into the kitchen, I was greeted by the overwhelming aroma of pancakes and chocolate syrup. Zira touched a strand of my long, black hair as Grandma brushed my cheek, sensing my gloom. Grandma brought my pancake and a steaming cup of peppermint tea to the dining room. I trailed her. "There you go, Hun," she said as she set it in front of me as I sat. "You'll be merry

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
