**ONE YEAR LATER****ANGELIQUE**It can't be true. I looked at the grades. And in the grades, there were only zeros—well, almost none, but yes, I had failed the year. I was left looking like a complete fool. I can't believe it. I knew this would happen, knowing that by focusing on other people, like Angelique and Colton, I'd end up ruined. It was true that I had forgotten my principles and done bad things, but I was in a bad place—it was a very tough time for me. Now all I wanted was to get away; I couldn't go back to high school knowing everyone would mock me. I left the school super fast so no one would see me, got into my white Volkswagen, and drove home. As I drove, tears streamed from my eyes, rolling down my cheeks and dripping onto my neck. I dialed my dad's number, hoping he would answer. My father made work trips to Lewiston, and those trips lasted a week or even longer. I needed him right now, and he wasn't here. "Angelique?" "Dad, I need you." "What's wrong, honey? Y

"How can a necklace protect me?" I asked.Lana just shrugged."Do you want to go to the lake? I'd like to go for a walk."I thought for a moment about the possibility of leaving my house and going back to that forest and lake. I didn’t want to; I was scared that wolf might show up again. However, Lana was here, and according to her, she knew how to take care of herself very well. I guess she knew when and where the wolves appeared. It was strange to think she might know that."I'm not sure, I haven't had good experiences going out," I whispered, feeling unsure."Come on, I'm sure this time will be different. I promise."I sighed and nodded."Alright.""Perfect, I'll show you the most fun places around here."We walked through the same forest where I had been running a few hours ago, the same place where the wolf chased me and tasted me with its tongue. I felt scared right now, and for some strange reason, I gripped the necklace with my hand. I felt a bit silly for doing that. We reach
