Urge To Escape

Chapter 7: A Taste Of Happiness

Lucas' s POV
I was standing by a crystal clear waterfall in my wolf form. Cylis' s black fur and crystal blue eyes seeped royalty. Suddenly the water I was drinking from sinked lower into the earth and a huge hole was opening up and as I looked up, there she was. Snow was standing on the otherside and as Cylis took a step towards her the hole sucked her inside, she howled in fear and my heart picked up pace. I had to save her. Hold on Snow, I need you, we both need you...please." I mind linked her. And when she heard my voice in her head, the rock she was holding onto broke and the hole swallowed her whole. And as she was forever falling her eyes held one thing in them. Horror.
I woke up so fast I was shocked I didn't get whiplash. I ran my fingers through my hair. I needed to find her. She was in greater danger than before and each passing minute meant I wasn't there to protect her. That scared me. Kyle barged into my room. "There is something called knocking." I growled at him. "Geez bro calm down, just wanted to let you know that we are heading down to The RedMoon Pack, Beta Richard said that he has some good news to share. Dad is leaving in 30 minutes but mum will follow after at lunch." I got out my bed."I'll go with her, you can leave with dad, I have something I need to take care of first." I headed to the shower.

"Good morning mum." I kissed my favourite woman in the house. Okay maybe I was a mommy's boy but she was very special to me, my best friend. My family and I got on pretty well. I mean we weren't always perfect Royals but we did our best to rule the werewolf kingdom with integrity and pride. "Good morning son, you look a little beaten up, come on sit down have your breakfast and talk to me." Oh this woman, I absolutely loved her. "I've been dreaming about my mate." That's all I said and she remained expressionless, the same way dad did. "Okay, there's something going on, you and father had the same expressions, tell me what it is mother? "
"Honey, what kind of wolf is she?" I frowned not knowing what was coming next. "She's pure white, not a spec of dust on her, thee most beautiful being I've seen, she makes my heart stop and melt and her unforgettable purple eyes. Her stance is one of pride, but her eyes lack the love I crave from her." "It can't be." My mother whispered and if it weren't for my sensitive hearing I doubt I would have heard her. "What is it mother?" "Elizabeth, she's alive." I was starting to feel impatient who was Elizabeth? My wolf was on edge. "Your mate...she's a royal angel kissed werewolf, Queen of all wolves and Mother to all packs...the last of her kind."

Aurora's POV
I slept so peacefully. I jumped on the bed waking Kelsey up. "Rise and shine!!!" I said laughing. "Mmmmm Rora." Nick came in with his water gun and he sprayed her in the face.She screamed in surprise and Nick and I were laughing our heads off. "Nicholas!!" I quickly high fived him as he ran out the room. She shot out of bed and some of her hair stuck to her face. I couldn't stop laughing. She spotted Nicks gun on the floor an evil grin on her face, she dived for it before I could even begin to step forward, and she watered me down. "EEEERRMAAGAWDD!!! KELSEY!!" She was in hysterics and I couldn't help but laugh with her. This felt good. Not having to constantly live in fear, happiness felt so good. "Girls time to get ready for school!" Aunt Jess knocked on the door. "Will do." Kelsey and I said at once. Her bathroom was huge. "Dibs on the shower." I said first giggling at the memory of us fighting over it in the past. I could finally smile, and feel free to laugh and boy did this feel so good. Snow was also so happy, I promised to take her for a run this afternoon, it had been so long since I'd let her free and enjoy the beautiful creations of nature.
Being that Kelseys home was a second home to me I had some closet space for my clothes and vice versa. We got out the bathroom after almost an hour of singing together and laughing. "So we're going black and white right?" I asked her again just to make sure after straightening my hair, which when straightened reach just below my waist. "Yess Rora!" She shouted from the mirror while I was in the closet weighing my options. I think I'll go simple. I chose my white converse black jeans and a white almost crop top kind of blousy top thing. I came out the closet and okay I had a thing my underwear also had to match so I had all it all white too. "All ready." I said. She looked at me in such admiration. "I am so proud of you Raaw " She pretended as if tears were coming out her eyes and she was wiping them, we both laughed. "Let me guess, 'I like it all natural and I don't like make up' vibes?" She said mimicking me. "Oh shush I have lip balm for when needed, okay." "How are we even best friends again?" I gasped throwing a pillow at her. "Ouch, what okay not all of us are naturally perfect okay, you have been gifted with naturally blonde highlighted hair, crystal clear blue eyes, perfect plump pink lips, the most beautiful smile and a banging body which by the way is the perfect hour glass figure...you're so angelic..almost surreal and it baffles me how you don't see it." She was making me self conscious and blush, "Is my butt too big?" I asked. She threw the pillow I threw at her in the first place right into my face. "Oh shut up Aurora! Some of us have to achieve that perfect figure of yours okay? " she was angry smiling, if that even makes sense. "Oh Kelsey, my little baby, you are the perfect one here, come on, perfectly breath taking smile, attractive hair, I mean effortlessly beautiful curls that just bounce so beautifully, you light a room up, and guuuurl have you seen your booty? Dayuumn I mean if you were not my best friend and I was not destined to be with a guy...mh mh mh mh mh...lesbihonest." She blushed telling me to hush. We both laughed. She flipped her hair over her shoulder tooching. And we both laughed. She went into the closet and she picked a simple cute black jumpsuit which had a strapless sweetheart neckline and three cute bows down the middle of the neckline. She slipped on some white flat ballet pumps after much convincing that she didn't need heels.We went downstairs for breakfast after she put on some eyeliner and mascara as well as some lip gloss. From my side she didn't need any make up, she was just naturally gorgeous. But I would not be the one to tell her that after I had mascara thrown at me last time.
"Good morning girls" Aunt Jess said. "Morning."we said in unison.Breakfast smelled so good as my mother laid it on the table. I kissed her good morning. She seemed so much lighter and happier than yesterday. It looks like both of us were in for a fantastic day. ***
School, before yesterday school was a place where people who didn't know me and still don't know me protected me. It was a place where I could feel safe but at the same time felt so unprotected because no one ever really knew my story. I mean they knew I was Aurora Holloway, but never knew who I was. To them I had created a concept of a happy girl who had theee life every other girl wished for. The idea of a perfect A+ Aurora who made no wrong was who I was to them.And I think I deserve an award for being able to sell it. An Oscar. But today school was going to be different, it was the start of a new chapter of my life and the tingling sensation of freedom and happiness fluttered in my stomach.
I walked to my locker with Kelsey as she hugged me goodbye rushing to her homeroom class. I still had to take my notes for music, which was after homeroom so I was running a bit late. The warning bell rang and as I closed my locker, some idiot ran into me and I dropped my notes. "I'm so sorry Aurora, I'll make it up to you I can't afford another detention." Ryan said not bothering to help pick them up. "It's okay." Douchebag. To my surprise the passages were quiet, and as I looked up I saw my biggest nightmare. Run! But my feet stood where they were, his face changing expression when he saw me, he was getting angrier by the minute. Richard. My knees were shaking, and my heart felt like it was going to run out my chest. "Happy to see me, you little bitch. " I couldn't breathe, with every step he took towards me I moved back, I wanted to scream for help but my voice was choked up. "I told you, I'd find you, now all I have to do is kill you and your pathetic excuse of a mother." I couldn't believe this, I was shaking my head no so frantically. I couldn't cry I had wasted so many tears on him. Escape Aurora! Run! I turned around to start running, and then suddenly I was pulled back, he put his filthy hand over my mouth. I bit his hand elbowing him in the stomach and started to run. He grabbed onto my leg and I fell on my head.I wasn't going to let myself cry, but good heavens it hurt like a mother...he started dragging me on the floor. "Leave her alone!" A voice boomed as Richard went flying out the school entrance and landing on..his head hopefully because the doors shut before I could see. I turned around to see the mysterious guy that saved me, I owed him my life. He had ocean blue eyes and chestnut brown hair, he was definitely great looking, but I had never seen him around the school before. "Are you okay?" He asked running over to me with my music notes. "Y-yeah." And thats all I could say to this gorgeous being in front of me. "Doesn't look like it." He said touching my forehead, his hand coming back with blood. I gasped in shock, ohmygoodness I was dying. I started hyperventilating. "Hey, hey, hey calm down beautiful, we can fix it." He put his hand on my forehead his touch igniting some tingles inside me. "A beautiful flower for a beautiful lady." He said taking out of his palm a soft velvety purple rose. "H-how did you do that?" I asked awed at his beautiful rose. He smirked, proud he had brought me to such awe and he spoke with such pride, "Black Magic."
