Far From Normal

Chapter 28- The Pack of Wolves.

I watched the ceiling for hours before wrestling by mind to sleep.

Just like that, boom a nightmare.

I stood in the beautiful moonlight shining of the lake I spent many summers at during camp.

The wind was silent and it was slightly cold. But I barely felt it, heat resonated from my hands, I looked down to see....

Beowulf, drenched in blood. It was black with a hint of red. It dripped from the tip of the sword.

You did this Lucas... Everyone you touch, everyone you care about... Burns up and dies.

I dropped the sword and fell back 9n my knees.

"You're right. All I do is ruin lives"

I peered into the water to see my eyes flowing red and my face drenched in blood.

I jumped up in a gasp and looked around the room.

Keith was hunched over the time and John was still passed out.

I stood and stretched out loosening my tensed muscles.

I grabbed a key and opened the hotel door. Looking at the clock it was 6:00am.

I walked down the hallway till I hit the stairs. I walked down them and found the counter.

"Excuse me Sir?"
He was an older gentleman with an air of respect.
"How can I help you sir?"
"Is the breakfast open yet?"
"Kid it's six in the morning. That doesn't open till 8 o'clock."

My Hope's and dreams sank.
"Oh, sorry for the inconvenience."

He opened his half door and unlocked the breakfast room.
"I'll let it slide, enter my office."

I walked inside and made some pancakes, I grabbed a yogurt out of a little fridge on the counter along with a milk and took a seat in the corner.

The man sat down opposite from me and turned on the TV. He put on a pot of coffee and looked at me.

"What's troubling you?"
"Stuff that would make you think I'm crazy sir."
"Try me."

"My names Lucas, and I'm a monster hunter apprentice who is also half-witch and up until last week I was a vampire fledgling."
"Try being a Werewolf raising a daughter whose in her teens..."

"See that would be fine I can handle all that. My life as of late is dominated by a man who my girlfriend used to love."

"Harsh man"
"He shows up and makes a home there. The Alpha welcomes him with open arms and I always catch my Girlfriend looking at him."

"My wife was the same way Lucas, but she is handlable."

"But what I hate the most is the stress of everything around me. Plus this dude has no respect for others who aren't under him or who he's not Fucking. He not only has a basic one way ticket to my girlfriend but hes also kind of dating my ex."

Opened a cabinet and poured some bourbon and whiskey into a cup before downing it. He passed me the bottles and spoke.

"This is kind of illeagal and also not healthy but you need a drink"

I opened the whiskey and poured it into a cup and mixed in some bourbon. I drank it down and sighed quietly.

"My world is not my own anymore sir."
"Please, its sebastian."
