Take My Breath Away

7. Lorenzo

I heard every bone of my body crack. The sound it made will give me a nightmare for years if it keeps going.

I could feel my body slowly crawling on itself, and I fell on the ground.

It was too much, I let out a howl. Hopefully, I was far enough from the hospital.

I cried, I shouldn't be doing this alone. I raged. It is unfair.

All the emotions I always had hidden in me were taking too much space. I growled, I howled, and I started running.

PAIN.

Typhoon was only feeling pain. For a first shift. It is a little unfair to him. But that's life. That's what the Moon Goddess had planned out for me? I don't get it, sincerly, but...

I heard something. It got me out of my own thoughts.

"Hey. Stop. You are almost crossing our territory line. Please identify yourself."
The wolf on the other side of the line was obviously a pack warrior. I could feel his inferior level, but he did deserve to be treated right.

"I'm sorry. I'm Typhoon. Alpha of the Golden-Earth Pack. I did not mean to cross your territory. I will turn around and leave."

The wolf in front of me seemed to doubt my word but bowed and waited for me to leave.

As soon as I could, I turned around and ran back to grab my clothes.

I felt hungry.

My stomach growled as I reached the hospital doors.

I went and grabbed food. There were sandwiches that people had not touched. I took three and started to eat them while getting back to my room.

I reached the door but decided at the last minute I should go see my dad.

I walked through the corridors and entered the room I thought my dad would be.

I was utterly surprise to see such a beautiful girl lying in a bed.

She had the most precious green eyes. Her eyebrows seemed to be perfect and never touched. The eyelashes orning her eyes were long and dark, making her eyes bigger.  Her curled brown hair was tied, but you could still see its length. If I have to guess, I would say close to her lower back.  She seemed thin, but the muscles were appearant. Maybe she is a dancer or a gymnast?

My eyes landed on her nose, which was a little pointy, but seemed to fit her perfect little face. Her limps were calling for kisses, and the whitest teeth were hidden behind them. 

I have never seen such a perfect woman in my life.

She didn't seem to notice me. I felt bad for watching her and did not want to feel weird if the door closed with me leaving.

"Oh... sorry, wrong room."

The only words I seemed to be able to come up with. She looked at me, I felt like she was taking her time to analyse me. Which didn't bother me, on the contrary. Even though I normally don't like to be looked at.

"Hey, wait. Are you ok?" Her voice echoed in my mind. Pulling me out of my toughts.  Her voice sounded like perfect little chismes, which only seemed to bring me happiness.

I let my eyes trail off her wounded body... was she worried about me? That thought made me smirk.

" Well, you are one to be asking..."

I saw her cheeks blushing.

"Yes, I am ok. I just got injured a little. It's not as bad as my father, though. I am really sorry, I was actually looking for his room and opened yours."
Maybe I was bothering her. I wanted to get out of her room but felt pulled to her. As if her presence didn't want me to leave.

"What happened?" She asked me, I could feel that she cared.
My eyes filled with water, like tears couldn't be able to be held back.

"Oh no, sweet boy! Come! Come take a seat and please don't feel bad!"
Her voice was the sweetest, calm, even a little motherly.

I took a few steps forward

as she patted the bed, letting me a space to be sitting.
I approached the space but was wondering if I should really sit so close to her or on the chair by her side.

"What do you want to know?" My voice sounded harsher than what I would've liked it to sound.

"Listen, I lost everything yesterday. Even myself... so if we could just talk a little, it could help me ease the pain that I feel. I kinda just need a friend."
