Mine

15 - Alive

EMMY'S POV

Dancing round the kitchen, I helped Jake's Mum clean up the side before we began to make dinner. After dying, I couldn't help but feel so awake. So full of energy. I was like a bubble that nobody could burst. I have to say, I'm glad my eyes are blue again, turns out that my red eyes.we're Scarletts eyes. You know, my wolf. She's so nice, but apparently doesn't like ice cream. I was mad but then I realised a good thing; more ice cream for me. Whoop.

I'm also relieved that my pain has gone; it wasn't pleasant and hurt. Bad. Although, I shouldn't feel sorry for myself; Eva and Nathan are probably locked in a tiny cell right now. I deserve pain. Sigh. The pain was unbearable when I was dying, it was like someone was stabbing me over and over, like my heart was unfit and couldn't pump anymore, like my chest was burning with fire and jealously, like my body was hanging onto a broken rope and it was snapping with every next breath I took, the last breaths I had until I was dead. All I was able to see was Jake's scared green eyes, the only thing I wanted to fight for.

After I shifted and became Alpha, I heard voices in my head. My packs voices. Yet they weren't speaking to me. No. They were speaking to each other, like they were too scared to speak out loud. I could smell their fear. I could also feel my urge to help them. I had felt so alive, with fur covering my body and a tall stance to keep me balanced. I could hear and smell everything. Almost as if nothing was hidden from me. I also saw my Dad, in my mind. He was there. He spoke to me. Just one word "fire". I didn't care why; I was just happy to hear his voice again in my mind.

Right now, I'm worrying where Jake's planning on taking me; maybe he wants to kill me because I'm an Alpha. I mean he said so himself, Alphas don't share stuff. Like with Max. Oh no. I bet Max and Becca will hate me now. Maybe I will hate them too! This is messed up. I'm twisting the Alpha laws. Starting now. I'm not loosing half the people I love because I became an Alpha. It just would be...right.

"Honey, you can stop scrubbing the wood now, before you scrub it off!" I heard Jake's Mum squeal. I only noticed all the time I'd been thinking,I'd been scrubbing down the table. Oops. I gave a shy smile and put the sponge back in the cupboard by the microwave.

"Sorry Mrs Knight" I apologised.

"It's okay, dear, oh and call me Imogen. I am going to be the grand mother of your children after all! You might as well see me as your mother-in-law" she clapped.

Grandmother. Me. Have children. With Jake. That's just...gross. I wrinkled my nose.

"Lets get started on making macaroni cheese then, shall we?" Imogen smiled and twirled round the kitchen then pulled out a stereo. Oh jeez.

Imogen pressed play and music flew through the room. She got out the pasta and I got out the pan and flicked the kettle on. The song happened to be 'The Way' by Ariana Grande. I love the rap bit. It's just cool. Not just because I can sing it properly either...Well I can't but, I sound cool when I do it. I think.

I mumbled the song lyrics to myself.

"I think about her every second, every hour.

Do my singing in the shower, picking petals off the flowers like,

Does she love me? Does she love me not?"

I began to get into the song and twirl around the kitchen with Imogen as we got out all the ingredients. Imogen was actually quite fun as you got to know her. She's all bright and loose. Like she's still a child. But in mature way when needed. She was very pretty too.

My eyes flickered to my right and I stopped moving. I saw Jake. He was watching me dance. Rude. His face was sad. I furrowed my eyebrows and walked up to him. He looked tense and slightly mad. His eyes were dark and his fists were clenched, one was clutching his mobile. I swear he was going to break that think if he didn't let go. Bravely, I poked his hand. He breathed deeply. I curled my hand round his and felt it loosen I took the phone and stood back, holding it to my heart. I just stared at him. At least he can't crush his mobile now.
