All Chapters of Awaken (Devil’s Lake Academy): Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Jerking awake and feelings of the same nightmare that been plaguing my dreams as of late it takes me a few minutes to slow my heart rate and realize I’m on the plane from the same nightmare that has plagued my dreams for the last month, I’m disoriented and forgetting where I am because I still have the lingering feeling of suffocating Like every time I wake up sweating profusely with my heart pounding with a feeling of overwhelming and dreadful darkness. unable to remember what happened in the dreamI wake suddenly, my heart racing and a lingering feeling of dread. It takes me a moment before everything comes into focus. My eyes take in the ray of light coming from the small window showing that I’m still on the plane. The noise from the staff and other passengers come trickling back in. I can’t believe I fell asleep but it was my last night at home with mama before I got on the plane this morning to head to North Dakota for College. We stayed up late which with the nightmares as of

I arrived a few minutes later than the GPS said due to a little wildlife. I never thought I would see actual wolves but the size of the one I just saw looks like something otherworldly. It was huge, as big or bigger than one of those mastiff type dogs. Like wow how can wolves be that big. I swear this place just get weirder by the minute, anyway after I slammed on my brakes to stop before hitting him, I don’t know why but I just know it a boy wolf, but as he crossed and the road and almost causing me to hit him he just stops right in the middle of the road. It was a good thing I was driving slower and braking in time. the little shit just sat there and stared at me with his head tilted and you he was hanging out until I heard a growl-like bark that felt like a warning, which made the large black wolf turn his head and run off into the woods. I started driving after a moment of looking into the woods where the wolf disappeared then drove on toward Altur Clinic. I don’t even remember

“I know”, I say, holding my hands up in defense. I didn't want to explain my life story now or ever. I have to live with her for 4 years so how would I not end up telling her my life story? I will tell you more tomorrow. I really need to get some sleep before I crash. “Promise? She asked, holding up her pinky.“Yes”, I said as I passed out under my covers to a peaceful sleep until my alarm woke me to say time to get up for work. It is like waking up no matter if light or dark outside make me not a “morning person” or as I should call it, “waking up person”. I grab my phone off the nightstand to shut up the alarm. I barely open my eyes and grunt as the lights from my phone fade into my sight. It is quiet which means Tearis is not in the room. The good thing about this room is that it is the only one that has only a bathroom and shower. Weird right? I get up and get a nice warm shower like I do every day before and after my shift at work. As I'm walking back into the room with my tow

The next few days are uneventful with classes and work. Lincoln was back the next night when I returned to work and I was grateful since the impromptu kiss I have stayed to myself. Tearis kept looking at me like I was about to explode or something. Hmm that reminds me that Dew next stopped by after I got off work that night, he was being all you have powers. I have to find him soon because that shit has been eating at me. I don’t understand anything anymore and he owes me some goddamn answers. Like why if he has been watching me all these years why have I just as of lately felt like someone was watching me and then he appears. The guy is adorable with his ash blonde hair and nerdy lean features. Dew is the type you go shopping with and tell him all your boy troubles too. He is definitely the gender fluid type. I hurry in the shower after I take enough time letting my mind wander and get dressed to go into work.By the time I get in the parking lot, Lincoln is standing next to my usual

Tea knows about my birthday and of course now everyone knows, and it means I need a party that will be bigger than what I really wanted. Tearis has a big mouth when it comes to parties and her extroverted personality. She spoke to Edgar, the Dean's assistant, about using the great hall for my birthday party and of course he was beyond excited to help her. So, my party is in the great hall set for 5:00 pm tonight.I was not surprised when she jumped on top of me to wake me up. What she doesn’t know is I am not a morning person and am evil when woken up. I am all about my sleep. As I swung out from the annoying hyper morning person voice coming in too loud, tsked, “Now Embryson no violence today especially since today is your birthday and your party is tonight. So, get up and chop-chop. We have breakfast with Drew then the dress fitting which took me forever to get the perfect designer for you.”“Ugh, what time is it and must you be full of this much energy”, I grunt and roll over dumpi
