Powerful But Broken

My Life Story

Brae's POV

I am sitting in my room of the pack house, on the floor. I am trying to think of where they could have gone. Maybe they went to visit Riggs, or maybe they went to help another pack and needed all the members for some reason.

"Um, Lady, we should probably go before they come back," Chris tells me.

"Brae," I tell him, getting annoyed with the whole 'lady' thing.

"Huh?"

"My name is Brae, not 'lady'."

"Sorry Brae. We should get going before the pack comes..." I cut him off.

"They aren't coming back," I tell him.

"How do you know?"

"Ace screwed the fuck up. He broke up the pack and left. That bastard."

"How do you know Ace?"

I sigh, "Let's go."

"Okay."

I grab a duffle bag and throw in some of my clothes and then some of Ace's since her and Chris are the same size. We head to the garage of the house and I grab my keys to my black two door Jeep. I hop in the driver's seat and Chris hesitantly gets in the passenger's side.

"They can't track us through the car, right?"

I will my eyes, "No, they can't. Calm down. If you are going to be with me, then you have to grow a backbone."

He stills, but stays silent. I will need to start training him soon, he sees like a decent fighter already.

We head down a road into the forest and come across an abandoned cabin. It is falling apart, but will do for shelter tonight. We get out of the car and I grab the duffle bag. Chris walks in first and we look around. The bedroom is completely destroyed with a couple blankets here and there. I grab a blanket and a pillow, Chris follows my lead. The bathroom is functioning surprisingly, but the heat and electricity doesn't work. Just the water. There is a couch in the living room

"You can take the couch, I will take the floor," I tell Chris. It is already dark out and I can tell we are both exhausted.

"I can sleep on the floor."

"It's fine, here," I hand him a pair of flannel pj pants.

"Thank you," Chris smiles and starts to change as I turn around.

He lays down on the couch and shift into my wolf, laying my head down on my pillow. I feel eyes on me.

'What the hell does he want?' I think to myself.

"How did you do that?" Chris asks me startled. When he looks at me his eyes widen in fear.

'You heard me?'

"Yes I can hear you? How?"

'I guess it's another gift I have.'

'Another?' He asks through the link.

'Yeah, I can remove a mate's mark with permission.'

'Cool. How did you become a black wolf?'

'That is a story for another day. I am so tired, I need to sleep.'

We both drift off to sleep soon after our conversation.

Ace is in a nice apartment in bed with a girl next to him. I don't recognize her, but he looks happy. He rolls over and drapes his arm around her in his sleep, pulling her closer to him. She smiles at the action as she continues sleeping.
