Their little runty assassins

chapter 7: forgive me

Jessie's pov

I start to walk. I look over my shoulder and see Eric staring at me as he walks. My wolf wimpers and cries out to his. He stops and looks with consern at me as if his wolf told him. I give him a small smile as i turn and continue to walk.

I walk till I see the breath taking view(the one in the picture). I fall to my knees and raise my hands to the gods just how mama taught me too.
"Lord Apollo , the god of music and medicine, my patron forgive me for I have caused someone injury ....so bad that he might die. I pray you heal him this night and that you bless both him and his mate thank you lord Apollo, god of music and medicine" I put my arms down. I sit there. The wind carries the scent of the woods and the water. Mama. That was her sent. She love the water and the woods she was either in one of the two.

Somthing wet hits my hand. I look as it. It looks like water but its to far away....right? Mama would know if she where here. It happens again. I start looking around . Not a cloud in the sky. I feel something wet runs down my face. Im crying.

I know why to. "It smells just like you mama." I haven't done this in a long time I hope the trees will tell her what I say " mama i know you're mad at me for not speaking and for harming that guy but I couldn't help it. He said that it was no type of life to live that dad wasn't living right. Mama forgive me."

"She will. What he did was wrong." A deep strong powerful voice sayes. I turn and Eric is standings there.

"How long?"

"What do you mean?"

"How long were you standing there....what all did you hear?"

"All of it from the prayer to the sun god till now. "

"Why"

"Your wolf was calling to mine. With each step the cry got worse. Why don't you come and apologize to Tavi sense you feel bad?"

"What sayes I feel bad about it?"

"You just prayed for his health Jessie to me that sayes you feel for him."

" I only prayed for his life because he's attached to Claire's. Octopus deserves everything he got, but im not going to watch my best friend wast a way like im having to watch my father." The tears fall before i can stop them. He wraps his arms around me and holds me tight as i cry. I can't stop it.

The guilt i feel for letting mama die, for yelling at Claire, for all most killing octopus. All of it. Every time I woke up screaming, every time I told them i was fine, every time i would fight it came out. Every stich of sadness that i have had bottled up all came out and he just held me. My knees gave out as I cried and he caught me. Eric was holding me up. He said nothing he just held me tight.

"Miss Jessie is that you I hear ?" A voice called out. The voice was high for a male and had a Creole accent. This voice I know all to well..Dr. Williamston. I look upat Eric. He was about to say something when I put my finger to my lips and pleading with my eyes. "Miss Jessie ....Miss Jessie I know you're there I know your scent. " I hear him walk this way.

"Who is that ?" Eric asks in a hushed voice.

"Dr. Dipshit that everyone wants me to talk to for my mental health." I say back as I look around. I see a knife in Erics pocket."let me see that..please" he pauses then hands it to me. I bind down and cut my leg.

"What the hell?!?"he wisper yells. "Why did you do that?....why beautiful? Why are you harming your self?"

I wip the knife off then put it in his poket. "explains why I'm crying. Please help me couver up the truth. "
He just looks at me. " as a mate you have to help me even if you think im crazy. So be a mate and keep that "doc" away from me"

"As you wish mate"he sayes after a pause.

"MISS JESSIE YA HURT CHILD. Here son let me help her then you can go on."

"Sir that will not be happening. Not only is this woman MY mate , I am the alpha of this land and she id injured. I will take her to the pack doctor." He states flatly. Then he scoops me up in his arms as if i was as light as a feather.

"MISS JESSIE I CANT LET CHA GO WITH DIS HERE BOY. WHAT WOULD YOUR FATHA' THINK?"

"We'll ask him when we get to his pact doctor's. " I state sharply. I wisper in Eric's ear," please hurry. He's always creeped me out.....I promise to explain everything later."
