Thorns of a Rose

4. You Here To Murder Or Rescue me

I don't know how many hours I have been stuck here, with no clock radio in the car and my phone smashed to smithereens I have no way of telling time.

I just know it has been a long time based off of the fact that the sun that was still relatively high in the sky when I made my call had not set, with the moon now making her full appearance in the sky.

Did I deserve this? Was the question that kept racking my brain? Was this all a punishment for being a bad wolf my entire life?

Was the moon torturing me?

I mean I wouldn't blame her if she was, I did try to be a mate stealer, and it wasn't over love. Even if I try to tell myself that it was all because of love to begin with.

I banged my head on the steering wheel for what may be the thousandth time now. I am so bored, and hungry and tired.

I have nothing to do in this car, and I cant risk leaving the car, with my luck today as soon as I leave this car anyone who was coming to save me will show up, see me not here and leave.

I can't take that risk.

It didn't help that I was still paranoid about Jasmine following me. I don't know what happened to her after that storm when she went missing.

But I know her, she didn't give up, she will still be after me. She will be after me until the day one of us dies. Being crazy and vengeful are the only things she knows how to do.

I mean it's not MY fault that my father left them after he met my mother, he was only drawn to her because our mothers were sisters. She was an accident, never meant to have happened.

It was one night of passion, one big mistake.

Her mother, my aunt didn't even tell anyone until after she was born because she wanted my parents to be happy. She even found her mate not long after, and he absolutely loved Jasmine, he still did. I think anyway, I haven't spoken to them since the night I ran. The night Jasmine sent her mate to kill me, and I killed him trying to save myself.

It wasn't my fault either that our father died, but she likes to blame me for that too.

I still always get the feeling that she is watching me, the hairs on my arm stand up, I get tense and my heartbeat increases. I hope that it is all in my head.

"Hurry up!" I moaned, I just wanted to be saved already, I wanted to get to the pack house and sleep and eat.

My body wanted to do nothing more then just sleep right now, but I couldn't. I was left vulnerable to attack out here. It would be so easy for Jasmine to just come and kill me this very second and no one would ever know.

I know that if I am left alone, I will fall asleep I cant fight my body for much longer. It will happen without me wanting it.

I am trying everything to stay awake, such as humming a tune, tapping random beats with my fingers onto the steering wheel.

I even got out of the car for a bit of fresh air to rearrange everything that I have packed in here.

Sadly not even the fresh air was able to refresh me or wake me up in the slightest. As I reclined my chair back I knew sleep was coming to overtake my senses.

My body relished in the sweet peacefulness of sleep.

**********

I was startled by a swift knock on the glass of the car window. I jumped not the noise not expecting it.

"Breathe, breathe." I told myself placing my hand on my heart in an attempt to calm myself down.

What just happened? I questioned to myself. My body was alert, my mind however was not ready to process anything.
