STORM

I arrive at my mother’s when it's starting to get dark. She is nowhere to be found.

“Mom!”

“Mother?!” I almost fall on my arse when I trip on a stone, righting my footing. “shit,” I curse out as I kick it away.

“where could you be?”

I remember I have my phone with me in the car and I go ahead and called her and she picks up almost immediately.

“Hello darling,” she draw and I gave out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

“o brought to you what you were asking of me, but you aren’t at home, where are you?”

“I am driving towards you but kets meet at our usual spot, I want us to go enjoy maybe dinner after this. we need to make plans on where we will be going to stay now that we have all that we need.”

Hearing her talk to me makes everything seem alright once again.

“Okay, I will be there in ten minutes,” I tell her with a smile on my face as I head out toward the meeting spot.

Getting inside the car again makes me sick but the box the stones are in is making it allotted reliable i

    STORM“This is interesting,” Nick emerges from the shadows wearing his usual smirk and I can't help but feel a rool of disgust wash over me when he looks at me.“maybe we don’t need all of this audience,” Xaver claps his hands twice, and just like that, the men who were surrounding us fall back into the shroud of darkness leaving the four of us.“Well, Teresa, nice to meet you again.”I look at my mother who sees me like she has seen a ghost and I feel her hand trembling.“Mom, what's wrong?” I ask her but she-cat even replied to me as she is looking at Nick like she wants to cry and tear his head from his body in the same breath.“yes, what's wrong? do tell. Did you see someone you weren’t supposed to see? Never thought you would never see ever again?” xaver taunts and I can only look at them in confusion.“spare her, she is only recovering from shock after so many years,” Nick says as he comes forward and brushes a thumb over my mother's cheek.What the…“get away from her,” I snarl

    STORMNick’s eyes flash in surprise for a second when he looks at me but I can only tap into the deep churning hate and anger that has always been a friend and companion for the longest.I feel it uncoiling from within me, I can feel my wolf also stretching and yawing, I do have time to think of what is happening because I am standing and Nick is only staring at me like he is seeing a ghost.“what the fuck!”I only have eyes for him and so I go for him.“Who are you?” he asks me as I step closer to him.“I am the one you should have made sure that I died because I have come to be your nightmare.”And then I attack.He is a bigger wolf and when he shifts snarling and snapping his teeth at me, I don’t even shift.

    LANDON There was no conversation. She has run out like she is being chased and there is nothing that hurts me more like that. I guess there is nothing more to say, it's all so obvious now. She is running because she is guilty. And that makes it so obvious she is against us. Another one who I thought couldn’t be sent to destroy us …is all that. “she is gone,” Kyle comes back, and I see him falling apart in front of me. he seats on the front steps as we all watch the car disappear until it's completely gone. “and she took the stones as well,” Cole says as he looks at his phone. I had a feeling that what we all had wasn’t going to last forever. It was all good to be true. I mean how could we, the most terrible guys who have killed, maimed, and destroyed lives more lives we can remember or count be happy? It's not for us. “Where is she taking them?” I ask him as I look at the empty driveway wishing she would simply come back. And say it's all a mistake. That she is sorry and we can

And I don’t want to listen to Kyle say that he is going to kill her when he lays eyes on her because that only makes me want to kill him first. Never have I ever thought about killing any of my brothers but today …. I can't stand any of them. Because I only need one person but that person is the one who is causing all this chaos in my life. I hate her too. I am going to look for her, I am not going to sit down and pretend like she is going to show up on my fucking front steps. I know her, and I know she is never going to come back here. so I will go look for her. I am not ready to lose her. I am taking the first steps to the staircase when I feel like my middle is being blown to pieces. And that’s when I let out a pained sound and pain blinds all the world around me. “shit, what's goin

    DEAN We can't find her. Cole is sleeping- or should I say knocked out in the backseat as I weave through the back roads of Ridgewood as we look for storm. “I swear she was here not long ago,” I tell them and they all look outside the windows, trying to scent her but it's in vain. “We can't find her,” I say to myself as I feel a very deep unsettling feeling in my being. Something bad has happened to my girl and now we can't find her. I don’t know if he is alive or not, because Cole is still out and we don’t know for sure. “We should let our wolves find her. it will be faster,” Landon says. I park and we all shift and start hunting for her. I don’t know what I am going to do if she is hurt. “she isn’t dead, she can't be,” Kyle tells me through our bond as we scout the whole wild woods. We have left Cole locked in the car, and I feel grim thinking about it. tonight, one of us could have died. Tonight, there has been a discord between us and we can't say it's because of her. even in

    LANDON “I am pretty sure you came up with the closest lie you could weave to tell us,” I stand up and pace towards him where Kyle and Dean are caging him in his chair. I am so mad right now I want to kill him with my bare fists. “I think you all need to sit down and see and hear what I have to tell you. This isn’t something that I can make up,” he points to his hideous face. My father is dead. I can't even feel anything or mourn for him. I am mourning Storm, I am wondering where she is, I am trying to find her using our connection but I always come up to a wall. Like she has put up a wall and I can't break it no matter how many times I have tried. And it's driving me insane. “I am going to kill you right now to be with your friends, no need to listen to any more of this,” I tell him as I tilt my head regarding him and I see the barest of fear flicker in his eyes. The man is spooked, never have I ever seen him like this, but again; It could be the effects of having half of your

    STORM Something is wrong with me. I should be scared of what is happening to me. I should be trying to comprehend what is happening outside, but I don’t. Some people are dragging me holding me as they walk, since my legs forgot to do their job. They are turning along corners and corridors, lights blinking in and out until I am shoved inside a stall. I fall with a thud, my eyes closing as the light hurts my eyes so much. And then they are tearing my clothes. I still don’t register to stop them, I don’t care. And then I am bare, and on the floor, my arms and knees tucked against my chest. I am jolted by the cold water on my skin, almost drowning me but it's not enough to snap me out of it. I have never felt so far gone as I have right now. I keep seeing his face, and my mother … and then his claws and her torn-apart chest over and over again. I think I start to sob because the water hose gets on my face. I am coughing, water is getting in my eyes and nose, and ears. And then it s

Their family has made sure I have gone through the worst a being can ever endure on this earth. It has made sure my bones have been scrapped and my heart has been torn and battered to the ground, it has made sure I have been stomped down and there is nothing left for me. It has taken all I have, and some more to make sure that I don’t raise my head. And yet … I still live. They cannot keep me down, as I have refused to let monsters who have turned me to be someone I never knew I could be, defeat me. in my family, we don’t fall, we rise and never bend the knee. They crush, but we don’t break. That is little to no feeling at all as I watch the man who has turned my whole life a nightmare, has stolen every sliver of happiness and life, stroll in through the door like he owns the very skin on me. “I have been waiting to get you back girl,” he says. He is speaking differently. And wh

    STORM Landon and I have been on the road for a week now and right now, we are on our way back home. It's so early, and I am quiet in my seat as I look outside the window as he drives. My whole life changed when I met them, and I cannot take it back, every single of them. I don’t regret any of it. I have decided to go home knowing that there is always going to be darkness in me, it's there to stay, and the best part of it is, I have found boys who want to join in on my darkness. They have shared theirs and invited me into theirs. It's my time to let them in and invite them on in mine. For great love, you must go through the pain. To have all that you desire, you must sacrifice. Pain and love go hand in hand, for you cannot love if you don’t feel the pain of it, it goes together. You cannot know what you have until you have lost it all. And that’s what I realized during my break. I did what I had to do, even went away for a minute from my love to know how true that statement was.

I shouldn’t, it's rowdy, and if I am guessing, when they see me alone some will try to hit on me taking me for a fragile little thing that has ended up where she isn’t supposed to. Even before I let that thought to sink in, I am already opening the door, the little bell at the top of the door chiming, and the whole bar goes quiet, all eyes turning towards me. I pause, taking it all in and all the people in. Burly men, tattoos covering their skins heavily, leather jackets and studs on some, a few girls on their laps, and they all look mean and menacing. I proceed to walk towards the tabletop counter where a woman bartender is watching me. everyone is watching me and after I sit down, when they realize I am not going away, they resume their talking. “what will you have?” she asks as she wipes a glass with the towel. “something that will make sure I have a good time tonight,” I reply as I hol

Maybe it was destined for me to finally embrace this dark side of me without painting it to be a burden, like a means to an end to my purpose.I have no purpose now, other than to feel me again and love me.That’s a good purpose, I didn’t think I was all about self-love and all, I think to myself as I look at my blood-caked nails.I need to find a place to sleep in tonight, perhaps eat human food, cook of course, and sleep.

I can't seem to remember why I am doing this because it hurts so much, but it's all for the better.I wipe away the tear sliding down my cheek and get in my car, revving the engine and speeding away.Back on the road again, alone, leaving all that I have ever wanted behind.I open my compartment glove and I find my old burner phone.

The ceremony is being held outdoors, the planners had thought that the day would be sunny and warm, but the rain has started and hasn’t stopped since an hour ago. I don’t mind, as I know this is not exactly how I wanted us to do this so here we are. “why did she not choose the other location that was offered?” Dean asks me quietly as we stand at the front of the huge tent serving as our shelter. They still managed to pull it off with the lowers, it would look magical was it not for the bitterness and bad taste in my mouth about this day. “doesn't matter, we are not here to party, we are just a means to an end for her to leave us,” I respond to him. “Can we all stop doing this? It's already in motion so let's get this over with,” Landon mutters. None of us have been in good shape or moods since last week when she said that she wanted to leave and the o
