Falling for the wolf 11
I was thinking about what he said about his brother's death; he seemed sad. Besides, the death of what seemed like his sister, already deceased, so I put on my clothes and left the room. I headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. I wasn't very hungry, but I had to eat since I didn't have dinner yesterday either.My brother came down the stairs, went to the fridge, grabbed orange juice and a packet of cookies, and sat down to eat."What are you thinking about?" he asked me, looking a bit shocked about yesterday."Nothing, Eva, let me eat."Lucas stood up and left the kitchen. I started washing dishes and tidying up the kitchen because it was a mess. I grabbed my backpack and left the house. It was raining outside, so I took out my umbrella and walked slowly along the sidewalk. I couldn't get Kessler's words out of my mind. I wanted to stop thinking about it, so I hurried my pace until I reached the high school.Outside, Lottie was chatting with a guy. As soon as she saw me, she appr

Penny had me by the hair, pulling it. I grabbed her waist and threw her aside."Don't get in my way!" I yelled. It seemed like today was the day for fights. I punched her in the ribs, making her stagger, then someone's arms grabbed me by the waist and pulled me away from her."What are you doing, Eva?" It was Kessler.Penny got to her feet. She didn't like at all what she was seeing. Penny now looked like one of those wild wolves from the forest, disheveled and growling with anger."Don't touch her, Kessler.""What the hell is going on here?" The principal appeared in our line of sight. "First, two young people fight outside, and now you two in here. The four of you, to my office. Now."I grabbed my bag, broke free from Kessler's grip, and followed the principal to his office. I knew perfectly well that we would get a very boring lecture. All I wanted was to get out of here quickly."And you, miss," he looked at me, "Your father is the new sheriff of the town; you should set an exampl

When I woke up the next morning, I waited until late to get up. The good thing about the suspension is that I could sleep in and rest from the late nights I've had these past few days. Although they say lost sleep can't be recovered. When I looked at my phone, it was ten thirty in the morning."Quite late," I thought. I rubbed my eyes and went to the bathroom to take care of my morning routine; I took the opportunity to shower and get ready. I remembered that today Kessler had invited me out. I still don't understand why he did it. Isn't he supposed to be grieving? I feel sorry for him; surely he's one of those guys who hides his sadness deep down to avoid showing weakness.I went down to the kitchen. Everything was pretty quiet since neither Lucas nor my father were there. It's incredible that they also suspended Kessler since he's the mayor's son. I looked out the window; there were gray clouds in the sky, a sign that it would rain at some point. It was cold, but this time I liked f

When we finally arrived at the place, I was amazed looking at it; it was spacious, very large, with lush green grass and isolated. It was, of course, surrounded by forest but in the distance. This place was perfect for a picnic, stargazing at night, or playing some baseball. But the gray clouds and cold weather gave it a more somber appearance. Still, it was beautiful."Do you like it?""It's beautiful, but why did you bring me here?""I like to come here to think, it's secluded, no one comes around here, and when the sun is out, it's even more beautiful. Come, let's go this way."He led me to the center, took out a blanket I didn't know he had, and laid it on the ground for us to sit on."Come," he patted the spot beside him. I sat down in front of him, and he smiled sideways."And why did you bring me to your favorite spot? Am I special or something?" I laughed, joking."Believe it or not, yes, you are. You're very special to me.""Why?""It's something I can't explain, Eva, you wou

The next morning I got ready normally, I had hardly been able to sleep well because of what I had seen. A huge wolf prowling around here. It was super dangerous since someone could have walked outside and they could have attacked him. I had breakfast, Lucas was leaving the house without even eating and I didn't have time to offer him anything. Dad was already gone. I was the only one here. After brushing my teeth I took my backpack, when I opened the door I was surprised to see someone standing at my door, he had his hand raised as if he was about to knock.Jon."Hello, what are you doing here?" I wanted to know, closing behind me."How are you? I was passing by and I was wondering if I could accompany you to classes. Since we are going in the same direction." he tells me, Jon was a very handsome boy, tall, fair skinned and blue eyes. His hair was blonde. He seemed like a good match but I had something that didn't compare to Kessler.I can't believe I thought that."Sure. Why not? Whe

"What do you want Riley?" Kessler inquires reluctantly.The girl walks over and clings to his arm as if it were her own. Riley looks at me from head to toe like I'm a bug that needs to be squashed."Let's go. Who is this?" She raises her eyebrow. Riley is wearing makeup, her hair is blonde and pretty, it has waves. Now I understand why Kessler would marry her, although aren't they too young to marry? He will barely be 17 years old. Anyway, since I didn't like the tone in which she spoke, I stood up straight to let her understand that she wasn't intimidating me."Let's go, Riley." Kessler led her away from me without even introducing us. I felt dumb and stupid but deep down I knew Riley wouldn't stay with her no doubt.•In class I couldn't concentrate, I thought and thought about Lottie and what could have happened to her. I imagined her alone in the forest without knowing what to do, fighting against those beasts. I can't, I have to do something. I put my things away and left the cla

When I was able to react a bit to it, it was a bit late, those wolves were fighting, I was in shock at such a spectacle that I was seeing, I felt afraid for myself, because I might not survive. I thought about Lottie and how maybe the same thing happened to her. I felt like crying for that, I had been paralyzed, watching how the huge black wolf bit the other, in one of those the other wolf ran away in terror from here. Now I was left alone with this one. The black wolf looked at me, in his eyes I could see the desire to kill, I could see his evil inside. Then the wolf gave me one last growl and ran off where the other had gone. I was in shock, trying to react to such a situation, I don't know how long I spent there but as soon as I reacted I stood up and ran as fast as I could. I went through the same door as before, up the stairs until I reached the hallway.I have to look for dad, he has to know what just happened, however, when I was going down the hall I bumped into someone."Eve,

Okay, this is very strange. Why am I kissing someone I don't know? I backed away from Kessler, still looking at him like he'd made the worst mistake of all, it's wrong, really wrong, I mean, I barely know him and I can't go around making out with someone who has a girlfriend and who's getting married very soon. This is bad."What are you doing?" I scolded, walking away.Kessler looked agitated, eager, like he wanted to keep kissing me more and more."Eva..." he wanted to say something but didn't say anything else, "... you wouldn't understand," he spoke, willing to leave and leave me alone here without understanding anything at all. Outside he began to drizzle."Instead of wasting time with me, you should put a stop to your girlfriend" I wiped my mouth "she's a psychopath" I murmured. Kessler looked at me."What are you taking about?""A few moments ago I was about to be attacked by a huge wolf, and you know what? It's so strange that she ordered the wolf to kill me. That was what she
