LexieAt first glance, you would think I’m just an average nineteen-year-old girl. There is nothing about me that stands out if you aren’t looking. I work in a family-run diner in Gwinn, Michigan. I go to the university here to study Zoology. I live by myself in a small two-story house at the edge of town. See plain and simple and until recently I would have completely agreed with you. My name is Alexandria, Lexie for short. And this is the story of where my life changes into a magical story you only see in movies or books.It started on the first day of the snow season and the ground was already coated in a foot of fluffy white stuff and was steadily coming down. “ So this is light snow flurries,” I say to myself shaking my head. I pull my coat closer around me and get in my midnight blue nineteen ninety eight Chevy Silverado. Don't laugh, my dad bought it cheap for me when I got my license. We fixed up together to get it running like a dream. I toss my backpack in the passenger se
Lexie After I shook Aiden’s hand he nearly ran back to his friends. I brought them their order and left the check. They were all suddenly acting weird. They pretty much chugged their coffee and then left like their asses were on fire. Aiden wouldn’t even look at me, not that I expected him to after what happened when I touched his hand. It was like nothing I have ever felt before. As soon as I touched his hand I felt a warm pleasant pulse go through my body. And suddenly everything around me smelt like pine and smoke from a campfire. Then there were the emotions I felt. Lust, comfort, confusion, anger, doubt, denial, and attraction. But who’s emotions they were, I couldn't be sure. I don’t know how but I think I could feel Aiden’s emotions mixed with mine. And the birthmark on my left shoulder started to burn a bit. Which made an already weird situation weirder. I finished all my closing work, grabbed my things, and locked up. I stood at the door looking around. If it wasn’t so co
Lexi Even though I had the heat on full blast I was still cold by the time I arrived home. I jumped out of my truck and raced inside. My home is a simple two story home. The first floor has my living room with hardwood floors and my favorite part, a fireplace. I have a love seat, a recliner and a desk. Since it is just me I don’t need much. Then there is my kitchen and the dining room I never use. I don’t even have a table in it right now, so it is just an open space. I tossed my backpack on the love seat and hung up my coat. I ran up the stairs where I have three bedrooms and one bathroom. No, I don’t have a roommate even though I have the space for at least one. I got this house on such a great deal I don’t need one. I ran to the bathroom and turned on the shower to the hottest setting it would go. When the steam floated in the air I stripped out of my uniform as fast as I could and jumped in. The water instantly soothed me as well as warmed me enough for my teeth to stop chatte
Lexi I made a quick stop at the grocery store before going home. After putting all my things away I noticed I still had two hours before I had to get ready for work. I've had a weird feeling since my run in with Aiden. And it followed me to the grocery store. I kept feeling like I was being watched but there was no one around. It made me feel restless. There was nothing I could do around the house to help calm me. The house was clean and all the laundry was done. I knew I couldn’t focus on studying but I needed to clear my mind. I grabbed my new coat and walked out onto my pack porch and grabbed a shovel. Maybe some physical work that I don’t have to think about will help. My porch isn’t very big. Just big enough for a built-in bench, a small grill and garden table for two. It didn’t take me more than ten minutes and my mind was still cluttered. It might have taken most people longer but for some reason I have been strong and faster than most people I know. It started in my early
Lexi I had another odd dream last night. I don’t remember much of it. There was howling, fangs, claws, red eyes and yellow eyes. I could feel the claws scrape down my arm. I was terrified. Then suddenly I saw that goofy wolf from earlier today and Aiden’s ice blue eyes and a chocolate wolf and I wasn’t afraid anymore. I felt safe. Then my left shoulder started to burn right at my birthmark. It hurt but not bad. All of the sudden it stopped and was replaced with a soothing voice. “ Follow your destiny. Find out who you are. We are all here to guide you. Trust in yourself. Trust in your guardians. Trust in your mates.” It was a calming woman’s voice. I felt a sense of peace wash over me and it chased away the horrors of before. When I woke up I was so confused. What did the voice mean? What guardians? What the hell are mates? And who are we? I swear I’m losing my mind. It is just a dream. That is all. I must be over doing it with school and work. It is causing my mind to play tric
Lexi After I got home I had a quick snack of sliced apples and grapes. After my snack I make sure I have everything I need for work. I have an hour before I have to be at work so I go out on the back porch. I like sitting out there. Maybe I should invest in an outdoor heater or something so I can sit out here more often. I lean against the railing and just look out at the woods. But I don't really see anything. I’m just letting my mind wonder. When I finally open my eyes I see the same chocolate wolf from yesterday. At least I think it is the same wolf. He has the same coloring and eyes. And definitely the same goofy look on his face. This time instead of sitting at the edge of the woods he is sitting by the bowl I gave him. “ Hello again.” I said. He sits down and opens his mouth letting his tongue hang out. I laugh “ Your silly, you know that. Would you like some water?” Yep, I’m talking to a wolf again. He nudges the bowl with his nose. Did that just happen? “ Ok I’ll get you som
Lexi It has been two weeks since the nightmares started and now they come every night. Tonight is no different. It starts off pleasant. Memories of my grandma and my parents. Days having fun on the beach collecting shells and swimming. My fifth birthday party with everyone I love around and alive. It flows through my mind like an old home movie. I’m at peace and happy. The peace doesn't last long. The memories fade to pitch black. Glowing neon yellow and red eyes and razor sharp fangs with no face appear. A deep menacing growl breaks the silence making my heart race. I try to run but am frozen in place. I open my mouth to scream but nothing comes out. The eyes and teeth seem to be getting closer and the number has increased. They are no longer faceless, they have morphed into wolves. Rabid foaming at the mouth wolves. I want to cover my ears as the growls get louder. One jumps as if to attack. I won’t go down without a fight. So that is what I do. I fight back. Another wolf jump
Luther/Diesel I let Diesel out for a run with my Gamma Dean and his wolf Kratos. Diesel has been acting odd all day so I figured a run would help. He was antsy and irritable when he is normally a calm wolf. I asked him what was wrong and all he said was “ We have to go.” I let Diesel take control which I now think was a bad idea. He has taken me to a part of the forest that we have never been to before. I know there is another pack around here and we don’t want to cross their land. It could cause more trouble than I want to deal with right now. I need to figure out what is going on with Diesel. We run for twenty minutes before Dean links me “ Where are we going man?” “ I don’t know. I’m letting Diesel lead.” Suddenly Kratos and Diesel stop. Diesel sniff the air. “ Luther, do you smell that?” he asks. I breathe with him and catch the sweetest scent ever. A mix of strawberries and chocolate. Definitely out of place in the woods. “ Luther, do you and Diesel feel that?” Dean asks. “
