Charlie's P.O.V.

What happens when you can't fight your demons any more? Do you just sit there and let them walk all over you? Or do you keep fighting until you have nothing left to fight for? I have fought and I can't keep living like this. I have fought my demons and yet here they are dragging me back into hell all over again. So let me ask you again. What happens when you can't fight your demons anymore? Because I can't fight mine anymore. I hate the thought of giving up and yet here I am doing exactly that. I am a coward, nothing will ever change that.

I look out at the lake and rethink every decision I have made. Was it for the best? Did I do the right thing? If so why do I feel like I let them down. It's not my fault. It's his. I didn't choose to be this way. So why do I have to live with the consequences. This place is where it started everything started here. I laugh humorlessly and throw a rock in the water making little ripples. I lean against the tree and try to forgive myself for all the awful things I have done. And yet I can't I see it every time I close my eyes their screams and pleas for mercy. Why couldn't my demon be something easy to fight like a bad study habit or something like that. No it just had to be this. I glare at the calm water jealous of how simple it has it. All it does is sit there and nothing will ever happen to it.

I hear movement behind me but don't bother looking. How many more people will have to suffer because of me? "Hey." I keep staring at the water not even glancing up at him. "What do you want. I'm not in a good mood." I snap at him. Can't he see, can't anyone see that I'm a monster that needs to be put down. He sits next to me, but doesn't talk. Good, I like the silence.

"You haven't been to school in three days. You don't go home. You don't do anything. You can't live in the woods your whole life Charlie." I keep staring at the water and throw another rock at it. "Leave, and for you sake let me reject you so you can live and be happy." I look at him now my eyes are silently begging him to go and to never return. My wolf howls in the back of my head, but even she knows we can't have him. He looks like he hasn't slept in days, his eyes have bags under them, his hair is a mess like he's been running his hands through it. I look back at the water and sit there hoping he will get up and leave. "I don't care about your past. Everyone has demons and everyone has something they regret about their past. You are no different then them Charlie. Please stop thinking you are alone in this." I laugh darkly at that. Demons. It always comes back to that. 'He's right. Everyone has a past and things they regret.' But they don't have you now do they. I snarl at her. She whimpers and goes to the back of my head and lays down.

"I said leave and I won't say it again." With that I stand up and start walking away. "Someday you will let me in and I look forward to that day." He whispers. I smirk and keep walking. That won't happen not on my watch. I take off at a run my surroundings becoming blurry from my speed and my unshed tears. I beg you Rowen get out before you get hurt. I slow down enough to realize where I am and I break down. I fall to my knees and let a sob run threw my body. I don't know how much time passes but I'm so tired all I can do is remember. I slowly stand up and walk into the building that destroyed my life. I close the door and walk down the stairs and to my old cell. Bodies still liter the ground but are slowly decaying the smell used to bother me. I stand in the cell...my cell. I walk over to the tiny bed and lay down.

I do remember. I remember everything. Have your best shot at me because I am waiting for you, you bastard. And this time I will win. With that thought I fall asleep in that tiny bed, in my old cell, with bodies everywhere and memories that haunt me.

Rowens P.O.V.

I haven't slept or showered in three days. I am beyond worried about my mate and her mother hasn't left her room for two of those days. She blames herself for her daughter leaving. Jace hasn't spoken a word to anyone since he repeated her message to her family. It broke them and their spirit. Alex is a walking zombie and Kaden has left to be with his mate. Her father is drowning himself in work and me well I'm going insane. She's hurt not physically but emotionally. Something is bothering her, but what? Three damn days and I am going insane. "Why don't any of you go to the lake?" Jinx asks and flops down on the couch with Blake following her. "What?" I snap at her and she just rolls her eyes. "The lake. She goes there all the time." She says in a duh voice. Jace just snorts and shakes his head. "I never understood why she always went there." He whispers and stands up and starts walking to his room then he stops and looks at me. "If she really is there good luck. That place is anything but a good memory." He then leaves.

I look over at Jinx and she has this slightly pained expression on her face. "What happened there?" She looks up and just shakes her head. "No one really knows. The only person who was there was Charlie and she refuses to talk about it. I won't tell you because it's not my place." She whispers. "But I can tell you it was awful and it destroyed her." She then buries her head in her hands and Blake grabs her and picks her up placing her gently on his lap. Jinx looks up at me her eyes full of tears. "Bring her back." I nod and run out the door.

Emma and Danny haven't shown that much concern. Either they know where she is or they don't care. The thought if them not caring about her makes my heart clench. She has been hurt before I can tell that much, but by who? I shake my head and focus on getting to the lake. When I get there I shift back and start walking towards her. A stick breaks under my foot but she doesn't look my way. "Hey." Hey, really it's been three days and I say hey wow. She just keeps looking at the water. "What do you want. I'm not in a good mood." She snaps at me and I almost take a step back. Instead I take a seat next to her I feel her body stiffen but she doesn't say anything.

"You haven't been to school in three days. You don't go home. You don't do anything. You can't live in the woods your whole life Charlie." My voice almost crakes at the end. 'She is going threw something, something happened here, something bad." My wolf tells me and begins pacing back and forth in my head. She just keeps looking at the lake and picks up a rock and throws it in. "Leave, and for you sake let me reject you so you can live and be happy." She looks at me and what I see breaks my heart. Her black hair is messy, and her eyes. Her eyes are silently begging me to leave. She loos back at the water.

"I don't care about your past. Everyone has demons and everyone has something they regret about their past. You are no different then them Charlie. Please stop thinking you are alone in this." I am silently begging her to look at me. To tell me she loves me and that she will accept me. Everyone has a past, why does she feel like her's is so bad? She laughs darkly at my comment which makes a shiver run through my body. "I said leave and I won't say it again." She stands up and starts walking away from me. "Someday you will let me in and I look forward to that day." I whisper to myself not caring if she heres me. "That won't happen not on my watch." I look over at her in shock. I don't think she even realized she said that. She takes off into the forest and I just sit there staring at the water.

What ever made her put up these walls has to be something bad. I will break your walls my little mate and then you will see just how much I truly care. I stand up and walk back to my packs territory taking my time. I see my house in the distance and pick up my pace. I walk through the front doors and slam them shut I run up the stairs screaming in anger and breaking everything I can touch. Who ever hurt you Charlotte will pay. I feel numb by the time my anger fizzles out so I just lay in my bed thinking about my mate and hoping she is alright.

????? P.O.V.

She went back there to her cell. That place is a memory for the both of us. Hehe Soon my sweet you will be stuck in another cell and this time you won't be able to kill your way out of it. I laugh again and walk back into then shadows waiting for the right time. She is mine and she will always be mine. I take one last look at the massacre she created and leave her to recall all those sweet little memories. She's a monster just like me and monsters need to be together.
