Katie POV:
I glanced at my fathers grave. Wondering why he had to leave me. Alone with them.

I felt tears run down my eyes. Thinking of the last words he said to me. I love you,Katie. I will be back before you know it. I will come back unharmed this time.

Those words kept ringing in my head. I sobbed some more and went back to the house.

"You had your grief. I gave you enough time to sob. Get back to work," Angela said. She is my step mother. She has been bossing me around since my father married her. When he was gone I was her slave.

When he was around I was part of the family.

No more of that. But she was kind enough to let me see him every now and again. She knew how close we where.

But she made me clean and do everything. She was not a mother to me. Her daughters came running down the stairs.

"Mother,Mother," they screamed.

"Ava,Maggie. Dears. What is it?" Angela asked.

"Maggie stole my beads..."
"Did not. Ava is lying again. And she..."

Blah Blah Blah. Over and over again with the bickering. I think that me and my stepmother are both getting tired of this.

We both gave each other a glare as if please help.

She loved them but they can get quit annoying.
I walked right out of the room and walked to the town down the street.

I wore and old pair of beat up jeans and an old top a wore whenever dad came home. He loved it a lot. It reminded him of my real mother.I saw wolfs running in the woods next to me and I wanted so badly to run with them. I forgot to mention. I'm a werewolf.

"Katie. What are you doing here?" A voice brought me out of my thoughts.

There standing before me, was my long lost friend from child hood. Wendy Allen.

She left a while back,but we kept in touch.

"Wendy? What are you doing her?" I asked her. I gave her a huge hug.

"I got married a couple years ago and had a little one. Her dad is watching her. Her name is Chloe. Oh I can't wait till you meet her," Wendy said.

A lot has happened,she has changed so much. I told her about what happened and what is going on.

She held me in a hug. I said thanks then good-by. I had to finish shopping before the three wolfs called me. I kept walking throughout the store.

All the while,I felt like someone was watching me. I ignored it. It had been a while since I went alone to the store.

I finished what needed to be done and got myself some stuff and stuffed it in my bag.

I was walking home and look at the news bulletin. The King was coming to his summer castle here.

The king of werewolf's was a slender guy that was kind to his people. It had been years since he was here. I used to play with his daughter and son with Wendy. It was fun. Mom and Dad would talk with the king and queen, while we would be playing vampires and werewolf's.

The girls got the vampire parts,since there was only one guy. He never caught us. I forgot his name. His sister I remember. Her name was Natalie. I wonder how she is. We stopped talking after mom died and the queen died.

I wonder if she will be queen soon. I can't remember what her and her brother look like.

I walked into the house to a argument ,mainly between who is pretty and who will marry the prince.

I put the groceries where they belonged and sneaked to my room. I undid all the clothes from my backpack and put them away quickly.

'CRASH'

I rushed downstairs to see what happened. Ava was holding a broken vase. Glass was everywhere. Angela looked at me as I got the broom and dust pan.

Her look said help me. But I choose to ignore it. I swept up the broken glass and heard another crash. When I finished cleaning up that mess,I looked up to see Ava with a old picture frame in her hand. It was entirely made of glass.

"No," I said as I grabbed it from her hand.

"My mom and dad made it when I was little," I said everybody stared at me.

"You may take it to your room,but after,come back down and make supper. Then clean this room top to bottom," she told me. "Now girls. The prince will choose which of you two beauties will be his bride. Dont worry the other will find a suitable husband," she said softly.

She calmed down the tension and with that they chilled and left to there rooms.

I placed the frame on a desk in my room. My mother never did find out what to put in it.

When Angela called,I raced downstairs and made Chicken salad. After I started to clean the room in which there was more shattered glass than before.

When I was done,I fell asleep on my bed. Thank god I graduated school 1 year ago. I can't wait to find my mate and have him take me away from this aweful place.
