Two months later, I was on my way to the werewolf prison. The sun was bright and yellow. The sky was blue and the wind was perfect. I wore my hair down and had the windows rolled down. The wind blew my hair back and it was actually really soothing. It felt like I was at the end of a movie, but I was far from that. My life was not over, in fact, I think it had just begun. In my past life, I was alive but barely lived. I was in constant pain and agony and when I was finally delivered from that kind of life, I was thrown into a new one that was filled with so much crap that I sometimes wished that I had not reincarnated. But now. Now, I was much much better. I was more mature. I was stronger in so many ways that I could not explain. I finally had peace and I got the revenge that I sought so badly. But I got it by letting go. I got my revenge by freeing myself from the hate, the anger, the rage, and the need to want to punch the wall over and over. I got my revenge and vindication for
Everything was going so well until it wasn't. I thought my life sucked at first, but what came after made me miss the mess of a life that I had. They say that when choosing revenge, that one should dig two graves--one for yourself. But I was way ahead of them. I had not only dug my own grave, but I was already ready to be buried. Nothing was going to stop me from getting my revenge! .......... I was the only daughter of the Alpha and Luna of the Thunder pack, a pack that was known for its strength, compassion, and resilience, but came with its challenges. I had always wanted to help my pack in a more meaningful way but was seen as too fragile because I had a rare medical condition that affected my breathing at times. From the day I was born, it was like I instantly became a burden to my family, and I hated that. Not like I told them that, because it would just be weird if I did, but I knew that it was true from deep down within my heart. Sometimes, I felt sorry for them; so
Darkness. There was darkness all around me. I had a strong feeling that I was dead but also knew that I somehow existed. It was hard to explain but I knew that I was somewhere though I did not know where.Suddenly, a bright light shone with brilliance before me. It was so bright that I had to look away. “I have seen your pain and misfortune. I have inhaled your grief and heartbreak.” A voice spoke from the light. I listened but feared to look.“Your life has been filled with so much fear. You have been held down by mortal sickness, by your parents, and even your pack. But most of all, you were given a death that you did not deserve.” The voice seemed like it was everywhere at once. “So I am going to give you a gift; something that only a select few have been given. And that is a second chance at life. Choose wisely what to do with this gift. But I’d advise that you take off the robe of fear and wear the robe of courage.” The voice continued. “Who are you?” I dared to ask as I shiel
I who was now Katara had to make a decision to keep my real identity hidden as long as possible; until I had a real plan to exact my revenge. I thought about killing the man that had killed me, maybe in his sleep but I knew that I had to do something bigger. Something that would let the rogue werewolves know that the Thunder pack that they wiped out had come back to bite them in the behind!I accepted the memories. I loathed who I now was, but it also gave me a chance to start over and get revenge. I needed not to be found out for who I really was. I needed to keep my true identity hidden no matter what.I stared at myself in the mirror. I had heard stories of people reincarnating before but never believed them to be true. But now I was actually living the proof that I needed. It all felt like a dream to me.I could feel tears building in my eyes as I remembered my parents. It was settling in that I was never going to see them again. They were gone. They were gone forever. I knew th
I stared at the guy for a few seconds longer than I should have. I had seen a lot of good-looking guys before but there was something about the green-eyed guy in front of me that awoke emotions buried deep within my belly.“Are you not going to pick up my books?” The guy crossed his arms on his chest and frowned. His tone was tense and he clenched his jaw. I finally came back to reality and made the attempt to bend down so I could pick up his books. It was my fault and I felt sorry for what had happened. “Hey, hey, hey!” Vanity stopped me from bending down to the floor. “Don’t touch those books. He’s the one that bumped into you.” She placed her hands on her hips.“Excuse me?” The guy chuckled dryly. “She was the one that bulldozed me!” He argued. “That’s no excuse, you should have seen her from a mile away,” Vanity fired back, and I felt uncomfortable. “You know what? I’m late for class, you two can go to hell.” The guy rolled his eyes and bent down to pick up his books. Vanity
My heart was thumping in my chest and my hands were sweaty. I was so scared. That was the first time a guy had treated me like that; in such an aggressive and sexual way. I did not want to feel that way again. I felt disgusted deep within me and a bitter taste coated my mouth. As I put more distance between the supply closet and me, I was beginning to feel much better; like I could finally breathe. Then I heard the door open. I glanced back in fear and saw Chad. He stood with a tight frown on his face. “Katara!” His voice echoed in the almost empty hall. The few students that were heading to their classes all stared at him and flashed him weird looks. The school had a lot of students but most of them were in classes right now. It was almost noon. There was not a single adult seen. I felt extremely alone. I had my parents to watch over me all my life, and now that they were dead, I had no one. I had to watch over myself. I had to protect myself. And that scared me like crazy.I ke
I glanced at Chad and back at Jade. He rocked his jaw gently and waited for a reply for me. “I, uh…” I could not produce a single coherent sentence. I was thinking too much. I really wanted to agree. I wanted to spend time with Jade, of course. He pulled on the strings of the heart. He made me feel alive. He had me curious about him in a way that I had never been about anyone. I wanted to get to know him better. But I could not. At least not now. It was too risky. I had to keep a low profile until I had figured out a plan to exact my revenge on the man that was responsible for the collapse of my pack. I had a mission; a sole purpose, and that was to make those rogue werewolves pay!I had been given a second chance by the Moon goddess, and if someone found out who I really was, that second chance would be all for nothing. And I had intentions of wasting such a precious gift. Jade chuckled without humor and shook his head slowly. “You know what? Forget that I asked.” He took his att
Confusion covered the features of her face and she chuckled lowly. “Forgive me for asking, but you have lived in this house all your life, why would you want a tour?” I smiled nervously and tried to come up with something. “I, um–I’m bored and I’m in the mood for a tour, is that a crime?” I shrugged lightly. “Certainly not, my lady.” The omega smiled pleasantly. “Would you like us to start the tour now?” I nodded and continued walking down the stairs until I was at the bottom. She followed me carefully. “Yeah, why not? But could we please stop by the kitchen first? I would like a snack.” The omega snorted a laugh and I raised an eyebrow questioningly. “Did I say something funny?” “No. I’m sorry, my lady. Um, please don’t get me fired,” She begged. “It just took me by surprise. You never have snacks. You have shied away from sugar since you were fifteen.” “Really?” I was not expecting that. Who on earth didn’t like snacks? “Well, I guess I’m deciding to make a change. And don’t y
