Broken

Peace

Chapter 11

Okay so a lot of people don't like how my chapters are so short but really, if I made them longer then that would mean the readers of this story would have to wait more than the everyday update that I've been trying to do. Sooo really what would you rather have?

I walked away from the pathetic little boy that was laying on the floor bawling his eyes out still. I'm so thankful that I'm a girl and don't have that issue. I smiled to myself. 'Sucks for him' I thought. I turned away from him and strutted down the hallway. That's right, strutted. I was extremely proud of myself and I couldn't stop smiling honestly.

I walked down the stairs and back to the meeting. It was over by now but everybody was still mingling together. I looked for Eric, unable to stop myself, and saw him in the corner with some of his friends around him. My mind flashed back to what I saw in his bedroom and I internally blocked those images from my head, not wanting to think of them any longer. I looked for my parents, hoping we can leave now, but didn't see them anywhere. Great, they left without me. Again.

That may sound horrible but really, they forget about me all the time. Wolves were supposed to be incredibly protective of their children, but really, I think that particular trait skipped them. They were really more concerned with each other than me. All well.

I decided the easiest thing to do would just run home in my wolf form instead of trying to find someone to give me a ride. Which was pretty much impossible since I really did talk to people.

Wolf form it is.

I quickly went outside and went behind a large tree to strip down behind. I took off my dark skinny jeans, white tank top, and my bra an underwear, bundling it up so I can easily carry it in my teeth.

After I finished with that I let myself shift, feeling the warm tingles cover my body as my bones shifted and my gold and white fur covered my body. I looked down at my newly formed paws to see the gold sock looking things that covered all my paws, the tips of my ears and tail, and also the small strip down the middle of me forehead. I know that the "beautiful" wolves were supposed to be the pure white or pure black wolves but I honestly loved mine. She was different, and she was mine.

I picked up my bundle in my razor sharp teeth, hoping I wouldn't put a hole in any of my clothes.

I started out in a light jog, letting myself get used to my wolf form again since this is the only time I've ever let my true self come out since my first shift. I started to go fast and faster, basking in the amazing feel of the grass underneath my paws, the blur of the trees as I flew by them. This was the most amazing thing in life. Even though my mate left, I still had this. This amazing freedom that makes all this pain worth living through it. I turned my head and saw the beautiful hues of the sunset. I slowed my pace down a little, not wanting to go home just yet. The breeze brushed against my fur, bringing with it all the different scents or the forest. I came into a small pasture that was filled with long tangled grass and a few wild flowers. There was a couple squirrels that were chasing each other but besides that it was completely empty, allowing me to have my own personal haven.

I went to the middle and flopped myself down, letting the bundle of clothes roll out of my mouth. I rolled onto my back and let my paws dangle into the air like a dog that wants it's tummy rubbed. I was only about a mile way from my house, so I wasn't to concerned about it taking long to get home or anything, so thinking this, I let myself relax, and soon after, I felt my eyelids slowly close on their own accord.

I knew that I was falling asleep, and for once, I didn't think about my supposed mate, my lack of friends, and of coarse, Tanner. For once, I felt peace, peace that only came when one has finally given into the darkness, and was waiting for it to take over.
