Adopted by The Pack

Chapter 8

Courtney's POV

I was walking with Millie home from school since we saw each other on our way home.

When the house is in sight we see the whole pack standing there with their faces lined with worry.

I looked at my watch and saw that school ended an hour ago...Oops

Millie realized too and we ran to the house. "Why are you guys so late?" Lachlan asks.

"Well I went to the park with my friend. Sorry." Millie says.

"It's ok just tell us when you will leave. And Courtney why were you late." Preston asks.

I can't tell them the truth about those kids. They might overreact.

"I met a new friend and she was showing me around town." I lie.

"Ok." they all say clearly unconvinced. Luckily they shake it off and we all go on side.

(Shake it off shake it off woohoo)

I do my homework and take out my IPhone.

I look at the time.

5:18

"Man I'm hungry." I think to myself.

"Me too." Rob says sitting next to me on the couch.

"I said that out loud didn't I." I say.

"Yep." Vikk says at the kitchen.

"These boys just keep appearing." I mutter.

"Yah we do." Mitch says now next to me.

"Oh my fricking potato! You scared the heck outta me!" I yell.

Millie comes down along with the rest of the guys and we all record a battle dome.

I upload it and look at my subscriber count.

12,952 It reads.

Wow... they like me.

~~~Time skip to when she's about to go to sleep.~~~

"Night Poofless. Night guys." I say and hug all of them.

Then I get in my pjs, brush my teeth and do all my other stuff.

Then I climb under the covers and fall asleep.

~~~Dream~~~

I was in a glass box. In front of me stood the drunk driver that killed my parents.

Next to him were the pack all tied up. Then he got in a truck and ran them over.

I screamed but no one could hear me. I watched them get crushed and then he swerved the car towards me.

But someone tackled me out of the way. It was the boys from the forest. They all started to beat me up and one pulled out a knife.

Then he aimed it at me.

~~~Dream over~~~

I screamed and curled up in a ball and cried.

Everyone ran in tired and I saw that it was 3:08 am.

Preston hugged me and cradled me in his arms.

"Nightmare again?" Millie asks.

I nod my head, still slightly crying.

"Don't worry. I'll stay with you until you fall asleep." Preston says.

Preston is the best person ever. He's the brother I never had. Rob is like my dad. I guess then Preston is my mom too.
