Beep...beep...beep...beep...beep

“god what the hell is that” i said my voice muffled against my pillow, i looked to my right and saw my alarm clock taunting me with the blinking red light showing me the time which is 5:30 AM.

I raised my arm and slammed it hard on the silencer and like always the poor alarm broke into pieces. This is not the first alarm that have met its demise at my hand and I’m sure as hell this is not going to be the last.

With a loud sigh i carried my exhausted ass to my walk in bathroom. Even though i just woke up I’m feeling so tired, looking at myself in the mirror i couldn’t help but let out a high pitched scream in horror, i look like i had just fought with a wild cat. My black hair was pointing out in random directions and the eye bags underneath my brown eyes is even more prominent.

After one more look at the banshee before me i headed to the tub, sighing in content when the warm water relaxed my aching muscles.

Ten minutes later i walked out of the tub with a towel wrapped around my body. Looking at myself once more i am relieved to know i no longer look like a reincarnation of medusa. My brown eyes are as bright as i can remember as my hair fell in wavy lines too the top of my butt.

I walked to my wardrobe and picked out a dark blue straight jeans that is ripped at the knee, with a baby blue off shoulder blouse and a white sneakers.

After getting dressed i packed my hair in a ponytail, I made sure I had carried all the necessary books I needed for the da do from my study before I slung my backpack on my shoulder as i headed for breakfast.

The hall was busy and noisy as i walked through, my nose sniffed the delicious aroma lingering in the air and i felt my stomach grumble in delight, as i sniffed a whiff of waffles, letting my nose lead me to the wonderful scent.

Just as i caught up to Chase at the line i was pushed so hard that if not for my wolf strength i would have fallen on my ass and slide across the tiled floor. I looked up to see Holland sending me such a menacing glare that made my blood run cold.

I just hate any encounter I have with her, sometimes I wish I did attend the same school with her. She is so annoying.

“please not this again” i thought.

getting up with help from Chase i looked at Holland and saw her lips move but i willed myself not to hear her as my face showed no emotions.

Chase beside me was seething with anger at what Holland had said but i did not pay full attention, only hearing bits and pieces. the little words i picked out were “you… man… so… whore… little… blah blah blah… away”

nodding my head i left to the gym, my hunger long gone as i felt a sudden urge to reproduce my last dinner from my guts.

I may not have heard what Holland said but clearly i knew what her words entailed as this has not been my first time having this exchange with her.

Holland was one of my closest friend when we were five, growing up Holland developed a crush on my brother Adam which was a little issue to me at that time cause it’s was yucky that someone likes my brother when I only saw him as annoying.

After the death of Adam she changed completely and became so mean to me, telling me that im the cause of my mother lynda and Adam death.

i walked to the punching bag and started punching it so hard with all my power, wanting to pour out all my frustration and anger.

I fought with the punching bag until my chest was heaving up and down at a fast pace, black dots clouded my vision and my legs wobbled. it was when my ass hit the floor did i realize that i had blocked my wolf. as i opened the wall my senses immediately heightened but all my pent up anger and frustration were still in me, then i felt a sudden urge to run, i shifted into my wolf form and let my wolf take control. she ran gracefully in her red fur with white highlights around her paws and snot.

i sat behind as my wolf increased her pace, I always liked going on runs with my dad, it was our father daughter bonding activity. Dad is very passionate about nature and any opportunity he had he taught me about nature, so smelling the woods and nature calmed me to an extent, i felt my wolf slowed her pace and soon she had stopped in front of a flowing steam. This place is making me feel so nostalgic, I took back control and turned into my human form. my clothes were still intact as over the years i have learned the magic of shifting without losing your clothes.

i walked into the stream slowly as the cold water made me feel tingles at my feet, i relaxed and lay my back at side of the stream my legs still in the water. I let my mind wander as I thought about different things and even made up ridiculous stories in my head. Time flew by and when I realized it was already getting late, the moon was shinning so bright which gave me comfort. I’m really happy that Chase did not follow me because i needed this time to think and just be alone.

i was getting ready to shift and head back cause I’m sure Chase is as worried as a mama duck when i heard rustles at the bushes behind me accompanied by a low growl that made the hairs at the back of my neck stand.
