I was running again but this time it was different . I was running after her . The beige colored wolf . She enjoyed the chase . She was teasing me . She whined as I caught up with her . We nibbled gently on each other's faces to show affection .
' You are mine . You know that ? ' I whispered .
' Yes I am Yours . Always and Forever . ' She replied in my head .

I woke up in the woods this time . I was in my pajamas shorts and I was laying on the floor . Something was messing with my head and I could not figure it up .
I stood up and tried to walk back home . My mom will be so worried and I was probably late for school .
After walking for a few minutes, I realized I was not really far from my house . I got back to road and followed the house numbers home .
My mum was already pacing at the front door . I was in for it this morning . How will I explain to her that I woke up in the woods ?
I continued walking toward the house and waited until she sighted me .
' Where have you been ? ' she asked in a stern voice immediately I got to the front door .
' I went for a run . ' I lied smoothly .
' In only your pyjama bottoms ? ' she asked looking at me as if I was insane .
' I was in a rush . ' I continued .
' So you went for a run without your iPod which is not only unusual but has never happened before . It's nine am and you are more than late for school so I will let you go for now . ' she shouted .
I didn't say anything because I had no reply to what she just finished saying . I entered the house and went straight into my room . My phone blinked with a text as I closed the door . That was probably Nyla .
I picked it up .
' You are awfully late . I left without you . ' it simply read . That was a bit too simple for someone like Nyla but I let it go .
I went into the bathroom and took a quick shower .
I came out and dressed in one of my black jeans and a short sleeved plaid shirt . The weather outside was a little bit cold this morning but I knew I didn't need a jacket . One thing I have always enjoyed all my life is that I hardly get cold . I never get the flu because I don't get cold . I never even get sick . My mum called it healthy genes .
I put on a pair of socks then sneakers and I was ready for school . I ran a comb through my hair, grabbed my bag pack and car keys and mad it out of the front door by nine twenty am . I got into my car and drove off .
Fortunately, the traffic was light and I got through quickly .
I got to school at exactly nine forty seeing as I drove fast and I didn't have to stop at Nyla's place .
I packed my car in the driveway, grabbed my bag and headed to the school building but I could not shake the feeling that I was forgetting something .
I entered the school building . Ian and Tedrey were not waiting at our usual spot meaning class already started and I already missed first period today . Again .
I went to my locker to pick my books . The course for the second period was Calculus . I don't know why I even picked the class as part of my courses . I was not bad at math but I was not all that good either .
I entered the class just as the teacher was about to start . Everyone was already seated .
' Jeez, he's so hot . You should have seen him playing yesterday . ' I heard on of the girls whispering and she was five seats away . I should not have heard this but that didn't concern me . What she said made me smirk and it looked like my teacher was now angry .
' Well I asked you a question, your answer was to smile ? ' she asked narrowing her eyes at me .
' No . I am sorry for coming late . It won't happen again . ' I apologized .
' Better . You can have your seat . ' she dismissed me then turned to the board .
Tedrey was sitting at the front with Nyla this time . Tedrey loved Calculus and he was very good at it . Ian on the other hand only took it because we took it so he was at the back . I sat in front of him and he immediately passed me a note .
' What happened ? ' it said . I scribbled later on the paper and passed it back to him . I searched the class for Nymeria before I noticed she was sitting beside me but just wearing something different . I smiled at her and she smiled back then I looked back to the board . I could hear the sound of the marker writing clearly on the board, one of the girls at the front shuffling her feet, the girl at the far end of class sneakily texting on her phone . Someone rising from the chair and dragging it almost hurt my ears . Then I was looking around .
' Adolph . Are you okay ?' I heard Nymeria whisper .
I snapped my head to her to reply then I heard the class going silent .
' Adolph, you are needed in the principal's office . ' the teacher said firmly .
I nodded my head and went out of the class . This has happened before . Then I remembered . I forgot my insulin .
I rushed to the principal's office and saw my parents seating and waiting for me .
My dad looked furious as usual . I have not even seen him at home at all since the beginning of this week . I didn't pay attention to him at all . I turned to my mom .
' You forgot your insulin . ' my mom said quietly then handed me a ziploc bag .
' Thank you . ' I said to her then I left the principal's office and went into the male's restroom to administer it myself .
I forgot my insulin because I didn't have to pick Nyla up . She always remembered .
I used a cotton wool already wet with methylated spirit to clean the inside of my elbow, the I uncapped the injection and carefully pushed it into my skin . I felt the liquid entering my body and my insides searing . I took deep breaths until I was done . I removed the needle and disposed it in the bathroom trash can . Then I waited until the effect wore off a bit before I returned to class .
NymeriaI was about to excuse myself to go and look for Adolph when he came in . He looked like the world just came crashing down . Being a healer, I could sense emotions and his was clogged with sadness and devastation .He looked up then gave Nyla a small smile before he walked to his seat .Immediately he sat down, a whiff of wolfsbane passed across my nostrils . Why will Adolph smell of wolfsbane after being called to the principal's office?As usual, the wolfsbane weakened me . As a wolf, wolfsbane was our weakness . It was a poison specially made for us . To weaken us and if taken in in large quantity, kill us .If Adolph was a wolf, why was the wolfsbane not affecting him ?I dropped my head on the table to fight the effect of wolfsbane on me . I didn't know when I fell into a vision .I was dressed up in jeans and my favorite cashmere sweater . I had a full make up on which was unusual unless I was on a date
Admetos' Any traces of her ? ' I asked mind linking Alastair who was outside searching for the Epsilon .' Still looking .' he replied curtly .The Epsilon already infected three more people . I was waiting for father to call me to scold me . I was sure he will be very furious .Just like magic, he was the one who came into my office at that moment .' Father . ' I called and gave a slight bow .' Admetos, have you found the Epsilon ? ' he asked immediately getting to business .' No but we are getting there . ' I replied .' Is it until it infects the whole pack that you will find it or what ? ' he shouted .' We will find it soon . I promise .' I replied quietly .' I want good news by the end of today . ' He said then walked out of my office .Who could the Epsilon be ? I knew everyone in the pack . Not closely but I could mention them . Who could have turned rogue ? I was still thinking about this when
Adalwolf' Are you still having those nightmares? ' Nyla asked as I drove her home . No one knew about my nightmares apart from my parents . I was surprised how Nyla knew I had them .' How did you know about that ? 'I asked as I took a turn to the ice cream place . She suggested we get ice cream so she could apologize for what happened in the morning .' I overheard your mum telling my dad about it . ' she replied . Well I wasn't surprised . My mum tells Nyla's dad almost everything . I packed in front of the ice cream place and Nyla got down to go and get it .' What flavor do you want ?' she asked leaning against the passenger's door .' Chocolate and Almond . ' I replied and gave her a small smile .She went into the building and I picked up my phone to check for messages . There were two messages from Ian .' Guy, where did you go ? 'And the second one, ' I just saw Nymeria . She saw you with Nyla and the look on he
Admetos' You did well Admetos . ' My father said to me patting my back . It was the first time he was telling me I did well and I wasn't more surprised .' Thank you father . ' I replied quietly and left his office .He might be proud of me but a part of me wasn't proud of myself . I made my first kill . A wolf like me .I sighed and opened the door to my office .Arya was already waiting for me . She raised her head up immediately she saw me come in but she didn't walk to me . She already heard .I walked towards her and sat beside her on the couch .' You killed her . ' she whispered her eyes filled with tears .' Arya - ' I started and tried to touch her cheek . She flinched and scooted away from me .' You killed her and I helped you . ' she whispered louder this time .' I did what I had to do . She was not well . ' I replied quietly .' I always heard you were ruthless but I never believed it . N
Adalwolf' Finally, today is Friday . ' I thought to myself as I tried to stand up from the bed . I could not wait for today to end . I'm tired of school already though it's just been a week . I stood up from the bed and stretched my limbs . I only had two classes today which was a bonus for me . But we were going to have one of those awkward family dinners tonight just like always . Since my parents were not always at home, they picked two Fridays a month for a family dinner where we will tell each other what had been going on in our lives for the week . I was never thrilled doing that but for my mother's sake, I had to put up with it .I entered the bathroom and took a quick shower then dressed for school .I was going to pick Nyla up this morning . We resolved our fight and we are now okay .I grabbed my car keys and headed for the door .I was about to leave when mum called .' Adolph ' I jerked my head and turned to look at her .
AdalwolfNymeria dragged me to the first class for the day which was Literature . She sat at my left hand side and gave me a bewitching smile . I picked literature as one of my courses because I always had a thing for books . Crime related and mystery solving . Romance was not my thing .Tedrey came in and sent a knowing smile our way and sat on the second column . He was a sucker for romance books . Ian on the other hand never read anything . Even school books were a problem . He was a jock, Tedrey was a nerd and i was somehow a mixture of both .The teacher for Literature, Miss Forbes came into the class few minutes after we already settled . The senior year male were always drooling after her because she was the hottest teacher in school . Long legs and a plump ass .' good morning class . she said sharply as she dropped her notes on the table .' Good morning . ' the class chorused in reply .' We will be discussing Shakespea
NymeriaI woke up by eight am, unusually early for a Saturday morning . I was going on a second date with Adolph and I needed to prepare . I still had chores to do anyways .I cleaned out my room first . I cleaned the bathroom, the closet and the floor . I cleared my vanity mirror and cleaned it with a mirror cleanser to make it neat . I vacuumed the house, washed the dishes and did the laundry . My father was still asleep . He was never up early on a Saturday morning .By the time I was done cleaning, it was already some minutes past nine am . I made pancakes and eggs for myself and my dad then went back to my room to pick out my clothes . Adolph already texted me this morning telling me to dress in comfortable clothes . I picked out white ripped jean shorts with a black long sleeved crop top . That should do it .I went into the bathroom to wash my hair and take a shower .I was done in half an hour but I knew I would have
Admetos ' I still can't find her . I lost her scent yesterday . ' Alastair said with a hint of frustration in his voice . ' It's been three days . He's dying . You need to find her . Please . ' Arya begged and let out a loud sob . ' I will . Did the healer say anything else ? ' ' She said today is probably out last day to keep him alive . The wounds are leaking with something silvery . ' Arya replied wiping her tears with the back of her hands . ' Mercury . ' Alastair mumbled, the realization of this dawning on him . ' What's that ? ' ' Wolf poisoning . A very powerful one . It's a miracle he is still alive . He must be drawing strength from something . ' Arya was about to ask for further explanation when Amarok came in . They immediately bowed their heads to greet him . ' How is he ? ' he asked looking between them . ' Not good . I will go in search of Athena again today . ' ' You should start n
