Alone always alone, a sad omega that never got her wolf and her parents exiled imprisoned, and then murdered. That's me Annette Williams the sad little orphan who was sent to live amongst the humans. Denied my rights to the Alpha title and all because an outsider claimed them to be traitours monsters. My father only saved me by sending me away to stay with the Dukes. That's my human family the ones that took me in and cared for me. After my departure, my parents were overthrown. Stripped of their title thrown in jail and both executed.
Since I was six I have been plotting my vengeance, thinking of a way to return to my pack and make things right. First revenging my parents and then seeking vengeance on the one who lied. I might have been young, but one thing I will never forget was the look in their eyes as they sent me away. Each night hunted by their tears knowing there was no way they could do anything to harm our pack. Our pack is the light of their eyes. For them, my father would have given his life willingly for anyone in the pack but there was a trader amongst him.
I practice and train my wolf daily and although they call me an Omega my wolf and I are quite strong and not as fragile as I let on. My parents hid my gift from the beginning. My wolf possesses special powers the kind that people will want to take advantage of. I have three unique powers but the ability to duplicate your power when touching you is rare as can cause greed. So they hid my powers and told everyone I had no gifted wolf there love never faltered even when the whispers weren't as quiet as they were meant to be. Being called an omega wasn't so bad it was the way people treated you that got to me.
I have studied all the major players and Everyone who was around during the time we shared, anyone who ever stopped by ate dinner signed a contract or behaved strangely their name is on the list. I'm Working on a plan to get me back into the surrounding pack areas most won't remember me so it should be easy to sneak into. I'm turning eighteen in two weeks and I've been applying at all of the companies owned by werewolves. Also, the top three companies where I know the CEOs are Alphas.
Putting the finishing touches on my resume and sprucing it up a bit to add all the things they require, I am! So I'm sure I will get into one of these with an entry-level position and that will be fine. Today was Chrissy’s Birthday she is a few weeks older than me. We weren't as close as we could be but it is what it is. Each year was the same they went all out for their children, they received big gifts and lavish parties each year the gifts bigger than the last. By the time I understood that I was being treated differently I had already decided it was time for me to go.
Everyone was getting ready for Chrissy's party tonight, well everyone except for me. I wasn't invited but I was put in charge of food and beverages. They weren't a rich bunch always having just enough for their children. I often sit and wonder, what my life would be like if my parents were still alive. I dream of an imaginary family often. One where I was still loved, wanted, and treated equally. Yeah! So much for those dreams. I do receive one gift a year and it's always from my stepbrother Rick. I and him get along well he is two years younger than me and he helps keep me sane when the house is against me. We have our moments but he is the closest thing to family I have so I cherish him.
I've been tucked away in the corner for almost two hours, placing orders for drinks and redoing the menu to fit the budget she has set up but keeps changing. It's frustrating but after three phone calls and a ton of emails, it's finally done. Finding my stepmother Christine, I let her know that everything is taken care of and we can begin as soon as she was ready. Good, she replies clasping her hands together waving me off. Chrissy is going to love this. You've done good, wow a compliment from her, that's never happened before.
Smiling I nod will that be all I ask and she pulls a servant's dress from her bag. I should have suspected that planning the party decorating and placing all the orders would never be enough. Taking the dress I walk swiftly to the bathroom and change. When I re-emerge the guest our beginning to arrive. I take my stance near the door and the gift table and direct her guest as they enter. I don't know any of her friends so it's just like work I don't have to mingle and I'm good at this part.
Not being seen or heard moving through the crowd, serving drinks, and taking empty glasses. She had a pretty good turnout of people. I'm surprised because she isn't a very friendly person behaving like a carbon copy of her mother. Head down walking fast not making eye contact with anyone. Chrissy's voice rings and I hear a small uproar as everyone's eyes are at the entrance. Peaking over I see a cold-looking man, six-two Carmel complexion square jaw and a five o'clock shadow that make him Look ruff, a bad boy and my taste exactly. This man was wreaking of authority and power.
With that my sight sets back on what I was doing, head down back straight and standing in my corner. I hear whispers and comments but I pay it no mind. With that, I stand there as if these people are no one and I'm no one to them. A few hours pass and people come and go. Dinner is served and the cake cutting is complete. Mister mysterious has been eyeing me almost the whole night. He intrigues me, his look alone causes my heart to stutter and miss a beat. Trying my best to keep some distance between me and that dark man.
Rick approaches with the cold stranger in tow. I steady myself, my wolf stirring fascinated by his proximity. . Hey sis he calls out to me before pulling me into a hug. I smile and hug him back hey Rick! Is everything ok? He chuckles lightly taking a look around everything's great, you did a nice job here for Chrissy's birthday a lot of the guests have taken notice many asking who was responsible. Oh, it's nothing really just something to occupy my time I answer sweeping astray hair from in front of my face.
Umh umh the men behinds he clears his throat, his eyes shift between me and Rick and his cold Arora making rick remove his hands from my waist. Rick looks back eyeing the man suspiciously? How weird were that Jade chimes in noticing something weird with the stranger? Before I can think more of it rick chimes in hey sis I have someone I want you to meet. I turn and face the cold men once again and then back to Rick. My eyes meeting his I can see the pleading so I stopped myself from saying what I really wanted to say and put on a smile.
Annoyed by his actions I turn and face the dark man with the cold aroura and a shiver runs down my back. His eyes rake over my figurehead to toe eating up every inch of me. Not knowing what to do or where to hide I shrink into myself. “Hello” my voice comes out not my own, deception to my ears. His smile broadens. But the cold look in his eyes remains. He looks to Rick, mind getting me a drink he asks and Rick takes off towards the bar but before he could go I stopped him I should be doing that you stay with your guest. Just as I went to walk off Rick pulls me backstopping me I don't mind and he wants to talk to you so I will fetch the drinks.
His eyes continue traveling over every inch of my body making me feel as if the servant clothes I wore were see-through. Nice to make your acquaintance, he says pulling my hand to his mouth to kiss. When he touches me an electric shock runs through me and heat begins to form making me burn internally. I've never had this happen before so with no words to say I snatch my hand away, nice to meet you I pause waiting for his introduction. I'm Javier Rodriguez the name quickly chiming in my head he is the CEO of one of the companies I applied to what luck is this to meet him here today. I'm Annette Duke please to make your acquaintance I answer as I let my eyes travel his body chiseled chin no blemishes simply perfection and even more endearing up close.
My eyes stop roaming just as I watch the smile spread across his face, Lovely name Annette he purrs, and Jade perks up he is a wolf but he shields his eyes I can't read him when he has his block up. Whoever he is he is good cause even with the touch I couldn't pick up on one thing. Clearing my throat, I ask so what brings you here to Chrissy's party are you a friend of hers? Well no we've only actually just met I had a runaway buggy that might have knocked her down after I helped her up and made sure she was fine she invited me and if that's all I could do I figured I better show up. Trying to read him still getting nothing I smile well that was kind of you.
Since I'm not here for pleasure I think I should get back to work don't want Chrissy's guest to feel neglected. Just as Rick walked back over I excused myself. Frustrated that I couldn't get a read on him needing a chance to talk to him again. Something not sitting right with me about it. Looking at my wrist it was after one am, I'm tired and his eyes haven't left me once. I walk over to rick and bid him good night, I'm tired, and trying to read him was giving me quite the headache. Rick I'm going to head home, let mom know for me please he smiles and nods sure sis see you later. Just as I'm walking off his dark voice booms, have a pleasant evening Annette. The way he says my name leaves shivers running down my spine I smile and nod politely taking my leave.
At home, I strip down and take a quick shower tired from the long day, but before I can close my eyes the door slams, and I'm summoned downstairs. I get up grab my robe and answer them Yes, I ask looking between the two sour faces and one with no emotion. What did I do now I wonder? Chrissy, her mother Christine, and her father Chris all stand before me. Don't play dumb you bitch what did you say to Javier why did he leave my party right after talking to you, Chrissy asks enraged. I'm not sure why he decided to leave I merely greeted him and wasn't feeling well so I took off nothing else happened. Liar she yells and I look to Chris I swear you can even ask Rick if you don't, believe me, he was there the whole time I only greeted him.
Mom, she's lying there has to be something else she screams cutting her beady eyes at me. Maybe he had something else to do he seemed to be a very important person. I chime in not thinking of anything else to say. I will deal with it dear calm down and go check with your brother and make sure she isn't making this up as she goes along. She stumps back towards the door heading to find Rick I suppose, I'm not through with you yet little miss. Who permitted you to leave the party, I was never invited I answer looking at her boldly remembering myself I continue.
I wasn't feeling well I needed to rest. It wasn't something I could change unless you wanted to get the whole party sick I ask raising my eyebrow. Oh you little, she rushes forward to hit me when her husband stopped her yanking her back a little. They are staring at me weirdly as I try to calm myself down. What, what is it I ask looking at the horrified looks in their eyes. Oh, it's nothing they agree with her steadying her steps. You should go and lie down and we will talk about this in the morning.
I nod in agreement and silently thank my stepfather Chris, I won't say that he is all bad, he just protects these evil people he calls family even when he knows they are wrong. Walking back up the stairs I sit on the edge of my bed shaking my head a really bad headache is upon me. I hear a small voice that begins to echo in my head but it's mumbled And I can't quite understand it. Jade did you hear that I ask hoping she heard it too. I did but it wasn't me.
There's a silent knock on my door and Rick peeks his head in. You ok he asks when he sees me sitting with my head in my hands. I'm ok! are you? Chrissy is pretty pissed, yeah but what's new I explained everything to them now tell me how is it you him Rick asks looking at me for the truth. He just branched here from the south and just so happen I just applied to his firm Global Enterprise I don't know him just of him but why do you ask.
He was on you like a hawk Annette, everywhere you went his eyes followed either he was really into you or a total creep. Really I act as if I hadn't noticed, but I did I noticed each time his eyes landed on me making my body do weird and tricky things. He asked me for your number my eyes meet his shooting up surprised. I hope it was cool. He is a successful businessman and he is in the field of work that you are interested in even if you don't get into his firm you can always use a good contact. With that I nod and agree, yeah your right thanks Rick I smile as he bumps my shoulder. No problem big sis get some rest. But before he leaves I call out did he ask you anything weird about me?
He didn't really say much I made his acquaintance when I spotted you in the corner he watched my eyes and said let us go greet her that's it are you sure you don't know Javier he ask looking at me questionably. I answer just the same I don't and I've never met him before. With that, he takes his leave bidding me good night thankful that he settled that for me, my mind beginning to race, a 1000 miles per minute. As the look on his face tells me he might not believe me.
I awake at seven am to my alarm seeing that I didn't toss and turn last night I'm energized and ready to start my day. I shower again pulling my hair into a ponytail and brushing my teeth I throw on some fitted jeans and a cream sweater to match my boots. I arrive downstairs and a strong aroma hits me and not for the food being cooked in the kitchen. No, this aroma is one quite different and not of cologne I can't really pinpoint it but it's heavenly. I enter the kitchen and my breath catches as I see Javier sitting at the breakfast table with my family.
Upon my arrival, they all turn and face me slowly Chrissy holding a look of disgust which is her usual look. Christine stands are you joining us for breakfast this morning my eye quickly finds Ricks and he shrugs. I have a few errands I have to run did you need me to get anything while I'm out? Oh no dear she answers as both me and rick turn to face her. What's gotten into her this morning I wonder but not wanting to ask the question. I return to my room grabbing my coat heading towards the door. Figuring it will be best to just leave them be with their guests.
Just as I open the door his deep dark voice stops me, would you like some company? I look behind me to see if I've mistakenly heard him. Are you talking to me I ask and he takes a glance around and my eyes follow the motion he just went in, you are the only one I see here he replies, and my stomach starts doing this crazy knot thing again? I'm sure you have better things to do, I think it would be best if you stayed hoping my answer doesn't anger him. He smiles cute but I still wish to accompany you. Stepping onto the open porch shrugging I pull the door closed and walk outside. Blind to what awaits me, and the trouble that's brewing.
Standing on the porch I turn around and face him, you really don't have to do this I'm not sure what's going on in there. I'm sure you have plenty of other important things to take too, although the offer was nice it's not caused for. I hit the steps thinking I'm leaving him behind, but within just a few steps he is right by my side. Well since im not so busy I think it will be fine to accompany you.I walk steadily ahead not really having anywhere to go. My phone rings and it's Christine sighing I kick up a rock and answer my phone as he trails me silently, quiet and observing. I fill his eyes watching me without even looking over at him. Yes, I answer with no emotion. I hope you're behaving yourself and not misleading our young Javier, I peek over at him. I'm behaving well enough, don't sound so bland we are family after all. I pull the phone from my ear and check the screen and place the phone back to my ear. I won't bring you or your family shame, have no worries.
He walks me to the back of a sleek all black Rolls-Royce. I only knew about the car from the costant commercials. He opens the door and I slide in, closing it he circles the car and enters. With that the driver drives off leaving Ms. Jones to fetch a ride with the muscle as she put it. Where will we be dining tonight I ask looking over at him, he dosent answer straight away but what i hear nexts takes my breath away, you look amazing Annette his voice comes out raspy. I look away clearing my throat thank you I smile coily this is all courtesy of you. I guess you get what you pay for I snicker making him giggle too.Woah don't say it like that I may have supplied the wrapping but you are suitable for these clothes you wear them well. Yeah maybe I whisper looking out the window. Annette, he calls me sternly forcing me to face him you said you didn't think you had something suitable to wear so I sent you a few things. It's not going to hurt me to buy you a few nice t
We should stop I whisper as his arm wrap around my body tightly pulling me impossibly close. Do you really want me to stop Annette? No i softly moan Jade clouding my mind with lust and want. His hand starts wandering my body and a fire trails in it's places, his phone buzzes and that gives me a moment to gain control of myself. Fixing my hair and straighting my over sized clothes I sit and watch as he answers his phone abruptly. What, he barks and his eyes settle on me and his anger seems to disolve he watches me and listens to the person on the other end while undressing me with his eyes or remembering what he already seen.Trying to snap myself out of this consuming lust, I stand and walk to his balcany taking in the view. Its beautiful wild flower stretch for miles in a wide open field, leaning against the balcany amazed and refreshed at the sight. He must have finished his conversation without me noticing and came and stood beside me. Nice view, I whisper trying to
I pull the door open to my room and it's empty even my little bed gone. I rush back out of the room door and down the stairs. Where are all my things? What's going on? Why are all my things gone. After hitting the last step I see they are all sitting in the living room. We've moved your things into the guest room for the time being that is where you will stay "Chris" my adopted dad deep voice booms. Chrissy holds a ugly look on her face stomping, pass me and into the kitchen bumping me on the shoulder.I don't need a new room that one was fine I cryout looking back at my adopted dad, you don't have to do this. He glares and I'm instantly quiet, it's already done now. When should we expect to see Javier again, Christine chimes in? I'm not sure exactly. I will probably see him sooner rather then later. Good, very good she looks back at Chris who face stays the same. I excuse myself and go back to the room which was now three times bigger than mines I look arou
Jade purs in my head, “MATE”, I don't think he Wants to hurt us Annette you should of heard him out. What have you forgotten what his father has done? Do you think I should forgive those things too. Before eshe could answer I growl out no, even if we have to give up the mate bond I will suffer I will never let myself become his my voice booms as I pace the woods in circles it has begun to rain and my fur is dripping wet. He will answer for his fathers sins. Don't let anger be the only thing that guide you remember that by rejecting your mate in return you could lose your beast you could lose me she whispers silently and I regret speaking in such a hot tone.Let's not talk about this now we need to get cleaned up and return home, there are going to be thousands of questions and I'm not ready to face those redundant people. My trail back home was quick me shifting at the edge of the woods I found a dress store in the tree trunk that was once mines it's a little snug
Another week has passed with me avoiding the Dukes like the plague. It's graduation day and as I stand alone in the gymnasium no family or friends here I let one small teardrop before composing myself. The dean of students approach me and he wears a bright smile. I'm valedictorian graduating with some of the highest scores the state has seen in awhile, we've moved your parent's seat closer to the stage. When you arrive later for the ceremony you can instruct them on how to get in and where to go. They should be so proud of you Ms.Williams, with that he hands me four tickets and exits the door. Everything is set and finally ready for the graduating class.I haven't been home in a few days or I've not made contact with anyone since Selena popped up claiming to be my family. Christine has called me numerous amounts of times and even tried having Rick reach out it's hard not to respond to him and I can sense his worry is three times worse. I've been camping out
It's been a few weeks since our birthdays have come and passed us celebrating together at home in the quietness we've become accustomed to. Every night I sit with her until she falls asleep a nightmare hunting her that she's too afraid to share. Each night while she rests I go out and train with my wolf letting Jade run free and strengthening our bond as one. I've never felt the way I feel when Jade is in charge. I feel powerful beautiful and full of life howling at the moon each night. I think it's her silent cry for our mate and I've become accustomed to it. My body was full and muscle taught my meals being fixed and cooked by me and Jess.We're so a like in many ways yet there's something about her I can't put my finger on. We’re on the trail back to the house as I hear Jessie scream and I run faster shifting at the edge of the house I smell something strange and I rush in Jessie I call and she appears what's wrong are you alright why were you crying what's goi
Agreeing with what Jade said I decided that if fate was going to catch up with me anyway it should see the growing strength and courage I've gained also. This morning while doing my usual routine I might have done a few things I usually don't but nothing so drastic someone might notice like taking my time on my makeup and my hair, putting lotion all over my body although it sweats off in heaps during these warm months, wearing jewelry one piece having a meaning that jade herself is unaware of I found it when I had blocked her out as I was adapting to not z07,m ,m,mm shifting.I search my closet finding a pants suit that I had tailored to me and fit me in ways that make me irresistible. Although I wasn't in search of a fling I had many callers who tried daily me never talking to any of them. Strange that the only man I desire is the one I wish to hide away from. I arrived at work at six am sharp I rode the lift alone to the thirty-second floor, just as I left the elevator and
We Kiss until there's no breath on our lungs when he pulls away his hand falls to his knees as he catches his breath eyes on me as I do the same with my back against the wall. When he catches his breath he looks at me and walks toward me, before he can say anything I cock my head to the side and start I'm sorry and I shouldn't have blocked you out but when I needed you I couldn't reach you and that's how you made me feel I don't want to argue and I won't run again I just want us to be whole you and me that's it. Cocking his head to the side he pulls me off the door and into him as he inhales my scent as if it's his oxygen he calms and then puts me down. Looking me in the eyes don't ever leave again like that. I see the seriousness in his eyes and I nod because I know I'm not leaving him again when I do it will be because he has sent me away. He takes me and leads me to the bed and I give him a knowing smile as I straddle him he is in his clothes from the night before. As I lean down t
Calm yourself Annette this isn't the place Sean whispers as he holds me to him I close my eyes and reign in my wolf. He is right Jade responds and I lesson the grip on Sean and storm off the other way running to the bathroom to kick scream and holler Infosh my phone out after my mind lil is blocked and dial his number but it's all the same I shoot Jovoan and Jess a text not to worry and let them know I'm taking off if anyone ask where in going tell them to be alone. I will call when I arrive at my destination. Immediately I receive a response wait where you are we will come with you typing double time I ask them to stay and please enjoy themselves I'm fine just need to think, Jess agrees and I'm thankful I exit the restroom and check my surroundings finding the back door I slip out and hail a cab.Let's see if he likes the silent treatment! I turn off my phone and pay in cash having the driver take me to the next city. I use the same Id I had made when I first left home and check into
Arriving inside the ambiance is just the same as last time the pubs not so packed but there is a decent amount of people in here the pool tables are surrounded and the back wall is full looking to my right I see my table from last time and walk over swiftly. After showing me to my seat Sean walks to the bar to grab a beer and a margarita also hoping to get this over quickly I scan the crowds for Nick and I don't see him just yet but I spot his friends from the bar the other night and they all nod saying hello I smile and nod back. After a few minutes Nick walks out the backroom with a girl in tow and too my surprise it's Chrissy Duke, I watch there body language and it's speaking in magnitudes I straighten my posture and search for Seannwho has our drinks and is walking back over to the table. Seems I've been spotted by the both of them at the same time. Nick smiles and pulls Chrissy along with him as he approaches.Stopping when he see Sean step into his line of view placing our dr
Walking into the company I'm greeted by the Secretary and I smile greeting her back I make my way over to the elevator shaft and hope on riding up I look in my phone and see a message from javier, that was pretty cute but you're going to regret it when I'm gone. Where are you going I thought you canceled your trip I respond immediately oh I canceled that one but I'm a business man love things come up all the time so when will you be leaving for this trip. I'm at the terminal now there ushering us into the plane. This better be a joke what if I go into heat while you're gone I ask and I hear the smile fade from his face he hadn't thought about that. Well enjoy the flight if things so happen to turn ugly I'm sure I can find someone to scratch the itch. Annette, he calls as I smirk into the phone yes sir I answer making my voice sound seductive as the door pings open. Sean will be with you and if you need anything you ask him and he will relay it to me so you don't want me to call you a
I stand to my feet drink in my hand and walk to the banister leaning on it just to make sure my look is clear and I am correct its them alright. But not only them they seem to be with a client possibly and he hasn't spotted me yet but she has and her eyes blaze in my direction as she pulls herself onto him but he snatches himself back and fixes her with a look but that doesn't stop her she just keeps doing what she is doing at this point my drink is gone and I'm burning with rage has she lost her fucking mind leaving my cup at the table I make my way towards the steps stopping I smile and look over at Sean, hey you wanna dance with me or should I ask one of these guys? His eyes grow big and he shuffles over to me quickly “ it a be my pleasure Luna he answers and I smile as he leads me to the dance floor. I don't let him see the Alpha I make him focus on me the guards stand in and surround us and the music begins a its salsa one of my favorites.The guys all take another step back and
Jovoan carried her to the sofa and I grab a cold towel and some water and come and sit beside her rubbing her forehead gently trying to bring her back. After a few minute, her eyes begin to slowly peel open squinting around the room til her eyes land on me she shoots up from the bed and grabs me hugging me tightly. You're here she whispers and squeezes tighter I told you I would be here I can't have you fretting can I? she softly shakes her head still not letting go why is he here? He comes in peace were going to work on us and this was the first place I needed to be so he is here with me. He came by choice she ask sitting up a little and I nod smiling. I lean into her and whisper “ I promise to explain everything to you later”. Squeezing her hand she nods gently. Sorry Alpha she murmurs next not looking into his eyes, it's all good his dark voice booms but his eyes are still frosty not understanding why I look to my left and see that Jovoan has his arms wrapped around me holding me a
He pounced on me so quickly that a small gasps leaves me as he pulls me into him wrapping me in his arms and running his tongue over the length of my neck causing me to shiver when I feel his canines elongate and I know that he wants to mark me. I pull back and meet his eyes I pull my hand from his grip and slowly reach for his cheeks hoping that a kiss will take away the sting of rejection Im not ready for that. "I don't want to fight anymore I whisper as I gaze into two of the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen, when jade stirs with an idea. I'm sure he might not agree but it's worth a shot. I’m not ready to wear your mark and I'm sorry if that upsets you but it's true right now I'm figuring out all the shit that I've just found out I'm a part of I don't want to regret this or regret being with you. He steps back but he dosen't let me go, can I speak with Javier please just for a moment. he sighs and nods and gives control back to Javier.He comes forward and I smile shyly Hi! I whi
The ride to the bistro is quiet and calm just what I needed to take my mind off Javier. As we pull in I spot Nick immediately and with a small stretch across my face he came, he actually came. Jess notices my excitement and her eyes follow mine, “ who's he?” she asks looking from me to Nick and then to Jovoan. Smiling I answer a friend who I hope I get to know more of I say grabbing the door handle but she pulls me back a little is Javier ok with this, looking over my shoulder I turn to face her I don't care what javier is ok with I'm ok with it just meet him you're going to love him I say with a pleading look she sighs looks to Jovoan and back to me. “Alright I will meet him let's just hurry this up I don't need the big bad alpha showing up and giving everyone a show". Climbing out of the car we walk towards an awestruck Nick he smiles and looks me up and down as he whistles. I'm truly a lucky man, he greets and pulls me in for a hug. I hug him with the same force he uses on me and h
So after everything that happened tonight you want to make sure it's your boyfriend that's unharmed that's where your worry is that's what concerns you? Sighing I look at her so nothing else matters, not even the fact that you got a pissed off Alpha before you? She looks at me and roll her eyes I wouldn't be here if I wasn't forced and if you don't like the company I'm giving then I will leave. But for now this is what you get. Smirking she leans against the hair board and returns that scowl onto her face, know that she is waiting for a reaction I change the conversation. So the guy you was with tonight is that who your choosing to be with is that really what you want you hate me this much you would let him defile you in public not once but twice and then act as if he is the light at the end of your tunnel.She looks at me as if she doesn't hear me and turns her nose up into the air, scrubbing my hand down my face I growl and my claws lengthen so you don't won't us at all then my effo
