Once In A Lifetime Love

Chapter One

For as long as Michelle could remember she had felt like the odd man out. She had been born into two worlds. Her Mom was from the Quilette reservation of Last Push. Her Father had been born in Seattle.

The other kids had often made fun of her in school. Calling her a half breed, and worse. Michelle had secluded herself from everyone at school. She had never wanted anyone to feel the way that she was made to feel. And she had known without a doubt that if she had bothered to make friends, they would be scorned and shunned.

Shortly after Michelle's fifteenth birthday, she had came home after school. The house had been eerily quiet. Usually she could find her Dad, James, in his study working away at his computer. But that day, there had been a different atmosphere as she had entered the house.

Walking into her home, Michelle had called out to her Dad. Noticing that he hadn't replied, Michelle had detoured by his office on her way upstairs to her room. As she pushed the door open, she had saw her fathers shoes peeking out from behind his desk. Growing concerned after he didn't answer, Michelle walked farther into the room. As she made her way around the desk, her eyes widened in fear and shock.

Michelle found her father's lifeless body laying face up on the floor. Falling to her knees beside his body, Michelle had first checked for a pulse. As her fingers had pressed against the skin on her fathers neck, she had felt weird marks. Moving so she could see it better, Michelle had found what had appeared to be a bite mark. Realizing that she could do nothing to save her father, Michelle had takene out her phone and called 911.
