“Yeah, two days and some hours. What are you going to do now? I mean, what is going to happen to you?” she asked him.“I don’t know but I am hoping that mom would have some answers for me” Alexander said to his sister.“How can you still call her your mom? She literally lied to you!” Arielle said to him.“Arielle, until I hear her side in all of this and get the answers that I seek, she is still my mom. Whether she gave birth to me or not, she has looked after me since I was a kid. That is what a mom does. So her not birthing me is not going to change the fact that she has been my mom right from the very beginning and she is always going to be my mom” Alexander said to her.She scoffed and she shook her head. There was no way she was going to put up with all of this. One thing she hated was lies and secrets and it was starting to look like their entire family was built on them. She shook her head and she headed out of his room.“Ari?” he called her.“What?” she responded.“Tell me if
“How do you know this woman? Where did you meet her?” his mother asked him.“She has been in my dreams. I have been having these dreams where she comes and she stares into my soul. The dreams, there is a burning house there. Hold on. Let me see if I can make a sketch of it” he said as he grabbed the notepad and started to draw in it. It took a couple of minutes and that seemed to be like forever but he was done soon enough and when he was done, he handed it over to her and she looked at him. She shook her head. There was no possible way that could be possible. This woman was dead. She was known to be the last burning flame wolf and there was no way Alexander knew her because he was barely a month old when she had died. She didn’t know what to think or how to feel. All she knew was that he was the last burning flame wolf. The woman in the picture was the last female burning flame wolf. If she was right about everything, the woman in the drawing was his mother, his real mother. “Mom
“You cant give giving me that attitude, Ari. I am not the reason he is leaving. If you have an issue with him, stop giving me that attitude” her mother said to her.“I have nothing to say to you because all of this started because of you. He is just what? Eighteen and we both know that if he goes out there all by himself then he is going to die! He wouldn’t survive out there and it is all your fault. You caused this. If you had just been honest with him right from the very beginning then none of this would have happened but no, you decided that it was best for you to keep it a secret just because you were too scared to tell him the truth. You might as well just pack his bags and kiss him goodbye” Arielle said to her. “Ari, I think you have said enough” Alexander said to her.“Really? Because I don’t think I have said half of what I need to say. We keep living with the consequences of her own actions and I am getting tired of that!” Arielle said to him.She looked at him before headi
"And I am done with the dishes" Alex said as he dropped on the couch beside his mom."You are going to be eighteen in a few days, Alex. Don't you think that you should leave the dishes for Arielle? You are going to spoil her rotten this way" his mom said to him."She is just eleven mom. She doesn't have to do the dishes. I have to head out soon. I need to head for football practice and then make it back in time for lunch. After lunch, I have some assignments to catch up with so I might be a little unavailable for family time until I finish up with my assignments" he said to his mom."Just make it back in time for lunch and then finish up all you have to do before dinner. I don't want you skipping meals. You would be eighteen soon and you would transform on the first full moon after you turn eighteen. I don't want anything to go wrong. Soon, you would be looking for a mate and then you would have to look your best. I don't want you looking thinner than you already look and I certainly
"I had this conversation with my mom and we got to talk about Julian. I don't know how long we can keep up with whatever life that Carlos is providing us with. My mom is excited that I am turning eighteen very soon. How do I tell her that I have transformed since I was fourteen? There is nothing to transforming. How do I tell my own mother that I have control over how and when I transform? How do I tell her that I am different?" He asked his friend."You don't. Transform when you turn eighteen. Transform at the first full moon and no, do not jump into your wolf form they way you do when we are about to race. That would give her questions. Transform the regular way. Act like you are in pain until you are a full wolf. I still think that there is something that your parents are not telling you. I don't think it is safe or wise even to keep any of this to yourself any longer. You have to talk to your mom about it at some point" Bennie said to him."How do you want me to tell her that my f
“What do you mean by I shouldn’t have access to the internet? This conversation is not even about me to start with. It is about you! So don’t try to make it about me” Arielle said to him.His mom watched them argue and she smiled at them. There was no way that they would ever grow apart. She looked at them as they kept arguing. She stopped them later and then when they were done with dinner, she decided to let Alexander go and she did the dishes instead. The next day unfolded quickly as she headed up to wake up her kids. She went to Alex’s door first and realized that his door was locked which was something that he would rarely do. She tried the handle before she knocked. “Alex? Are you okay?” she asked him.“Mom?” she heard.*****After dinner, he headed to bed. He tried to keep his eyes open because he wasn’t mentally prepared for another nightmare or vision but as soon as he got on his bed, his eyes started to close. He closed his eyes and he found himself on the lonely road agai
He touched it and looked at his sister. He started to give it some thoughts. He looked back at the drawings as he flipped the pages of the book. He rubbed his forehead and he looked at her.“Let me guess, you don’t remember drawing it” she said to him.“No, I don’t. It is almost like I didn’t do it. I remember seeing it in my book. I just don’t remember drawing it” he said to his sister.“I know. It is pretty obvious from the way you look at it. We have to go. Mom would be here soon and she would want to know what kept you up here with me. I don’t want you to have to tell another lie” Arielle said to him.Alexander nodded at his sister and he headed down to the dining table with his sister. After breakfast, he headed to his room because he needed some alone time. He decided not to lock the door anymore. It was easier if his mom walked in on him in his wolf form than for him to tell her that he was already a wolf and there was no big deal to it. His sister said that he was going to tra
Bennie took the drawing pad from him and he flipped it open. He didn’t see anything out of the ordinary in it but his mind told him to go on. He did and he got to the part where the drawings of the burning flame wolves were. He was shocked to his bones because the drawings were too accurate, too detailed and it shouldn’t be possible because the last of the pack was dead before Alexander was born.“That was the same reaction I had when I saw those drawings in my book, signed with my name. I don’t remember drawing it and before you ask, no. I couldn’t have possibly drawn it in my sleep because I don’t sleep with my drawing pad on my bed. I always clear them out because I am always scared that I would probably tear them while I am asleep but they are there, signed with my name, in my handwriting, I drew it. I just don’t remember drawing it. Arielle found it and kept it which was a good thing because if she didn’t take it, my mom would have taken it. So maybe, I am one of them. I just don
