2 months laterChilli POVPauline has been more of a bitch than normal. She's been on me constantly, since the ball and with father being away with the alphas on their tour of other packs, she seems annoyed with me because I've ruined her plans of having the house to herself for twelve weeks. They left the day after the ball, Normally I would have gone with, to assist father plus It's a great way for young wolves of the beta, alpha etc to find their mates if they are from other packs but I wasn't feeling well enough and would have slowed them down. So I've had to stay with Pauline which means chores all day everyday. Each day they are gone, I feel more lonely and isolated. Even Erin has gone too but I miss Elias the most. We barely had a chance to talk before he was gone. Waking up the morning after the ball, in his bed with him sitting across the room. He looked pissed off and angry at something. Wouldn't really say much, just made sure I was ok and left. Weird and hurtful. It felt

Elias POV "What do you mean she wasn't my twin?" Mother, the most shocked I've ever seen, she looks so pale she might faint. "I ... I dont understand?".Gran takes a seat in her armchair, as Grandfather stands behind it, still holding her shoulders, firmly, supportingly. "When we were in the hospital and you had not long been born, I overheard the nurses talking about this young woman who died giving birth to a baby girl. I felt sad, of course but just tried to focus on you and how thankful I was that we were both okay, thinking the father or family of the woman would look after the baby and that was that" Gran wells with a tear. Placing her hand on her husbands. "Tom and I were taking a little strole to get me moving and as we passed the nursery we hear crying, but not a hungry cry or anything like that. It was a painfull, grieving cry. We stopped and gazed at this little thing howling, we couldn't look away. I knew that was the baby I heard the nurses talking about earlier. I ask

I feel scratching to the door of my mind, like something is trying to get in. Opening my eyes and looking down at my wrists, the blood flow has slowed, nearly stopped. Hu? I think to myself, shouldn't I be dead them? As I stare at the blood colecting by the drain, I notice something isn't right, my blood, there's something weird about it, its darker than it should be and what is that? Quickly, I reach up and turn the shower off, before the water can wash away any more off my blood. With the water off I examine the foreign substance that was in my veins. Poking it with my finger tip, I sniff it, wolves bane or some hybrid version of it and something else I don't recognize. My skin starts to burn, falling out the shower and grabbing a towel, wiping the gooe off. As I do, I notice the cut on my wrist has healed, only a scar remains with burnt track marks on my skin, the wolves bane. Why the fuck is there wolves bane in my system? The scratching returns, my wolf, my wolf is scratching t

Chilli POV Thoran and Pauline are still arguing as I try to sneak out, I'm nearly in the clear as Thoran yakes me back in the middle of the room by my hair. "Where the fuck do you think you are going?" He snarls at me. "Your mine now, bitch!" Bloody hell, I think to myself. Anger coming off him, like the waves of the ocean in a storm, deadly and treacherous. "You've been brought and paid for!" Brought and paid for? what the fuck?! I look up at Pauline, her expression not wavering, no guilt or regret, just pleasure and pride at the thought of finally getting rid of me and receiving something in return. What did he give her?I am sick of this, I am not hers or anyones to sell or be bargain with. My contempt for her burns through me and I feel my wolf taking over, Normally I would fight it but no more, I welcome the change, letting my wolf take control. Just as my bones start to crack and fur appears on my skin, I get her boot in the face. Bitch, I think, not again, as it all goes blac

"I'll give you two some space". Father stands, heading for the door. "I just need to check something". Erin sips her coffee, still sitting on the edge of the bed, "bet his going to her". "Her?" Although I think I know who her is."Pauline" Erin confirms my thinking, "she's on thin ice" Erin smiles, would say too happy, but not when it comes to Pauline. "Your father isn't happy with her, nor is alpha or luna actually, although they never are" giggling slightly."What really happened?" Not sure how much she already knows, not wanting everything to be,"Well, what do you know?" She goes on to tell me more or less the same as father, wanting me to fill in the gaps. So I tell her about Thoran and her plan to get rid of me, the tampering with my food, keeping me locked in my room, the boot to the face, Thoran striking me, blacking out, jumping out the window after hearing the howling, pretty much everything but the razor and the blood. She seems content and a bit overwhelmed by the inform
