I am totally sorry i left you guys without any regards and i totally undertstand if you want to stop reading this book, but i promise from now on to give regular update as often as possible. 

I will advise you to read the last chapter before you read this one so you get the gist of everything but for  now here is chapter 15.

Chapter 15

I came across a fallen tree, the simple thing, looking so peaceful lying on the ground, where have all the simplest things gone. Times where we were so ignorant and naïve, I wonder what has actually stayed the same through these rough times. As the wind blows my hair south, wishing that the wind could also fly away all my worries away too.

 The last few weeks has been utter hell, there isn’t a day that goes by where I think about life before the pack, life before meeting Riley, Annie,  Holly and Paul. It seems like a lifetime ago that I was back in foster care with Elena as my key worker and all the other foster kids there.  I sometimes wonder if I hadn’t left earlier I wouldn’t be in the mess I am in now, but then I think of holly, Riley, Paul and Annie and know that if I wouldn’t of left I would’ve have never met them.

I remember my 18th birthday not long ago. Some would be ecstatic but for me, I couldn't seem to wrap my head around it. Every year I wouldn’t celebrate my birthday, not having a family, except for Elena who would always bake me a small cake just enough for her and me, with one small flaming candle. Those were the times I was most grateful and cherish everything she had done for me.

 Riley wasn't the most subtle person regarding my birthday, how he knew it was just round the corner and I know he had been planning something even though I’ve told him many times that it isn’t needed nor do I want it. I would still be content with a small cake to share between the two of us, nothing fancy or extravagant, but he being the stubborn person he is hadn't listened to a word that has come out of my mouth.

 It’s surreal, but I am damn grateful, as I sit in the clearing reminiscing I finally understand why things has happened the way they did, that life truly has its reasons. So I’ve made the decision in letting Riley mark me soon. After everything we’ve been through I think this is the best time than any. 

 I’ve been playing with the elements a little too much, especially fire- seeing as it is the most difficult to control I have been using most of my time learning how it works. With the flick of my wrist a slow burning light erupted on the palm of my hand, licking at my flesh. The warmth it created enveloped me into a blanket, protecting me from the harsh late winter. A rustling sound, heard from my right is what had me quickly diminishing the flame.

Riley’s figure emerged from the tree line, almost as if he knew where I would be hiding out. But it weren’t a secret that I would take comfort in the midst of the forest where the air was lighter and the birds took flight. “Will I ever find you hiding in side the house, instead of out here?” he questioned as he sat beside me, taking my hand into his.

 “Maybe not, will you ever not come out and find me?”

 “Maybe not” he reiterated back at me. “How you feeling, Are you still tired from practise?”

 “I’m alright, you get used to the exhaustion after a while so it’s not too bad.” I explained seemly.

 “That’s good, but if you ever find it too much just tell Paul you want to take a break, your health is much more important.” He advised almost as a father.

 “Yeah always, I was meaning to ask you something Riley, but before you cn argue hear me out.”

 “Ok, shoot.”

 “I want to go to Spartans Camp, the one Paul went to.” I held up my hand before he could interrupt. “And I know it’s on the other side of the country, but going there could help me understand my so called gift, it could make my life so much easier and I would understand how and why things happen. It could be such a learning experience for me.”

 “No” clear plain and simple, one word could diminish all of my hope.

 “Why not Riley, come on you know it’s the right thing to do.

 “No Carter, end of discussion, I’ve made up my mind and my decision is final, I don’t want you bringing this subject back up. And you can complain to Paul all you want but I am your Alpha and what I say goes.” And with that he gets up ad swiftly leaves me raging, as a light fire slowly kills the tress ahead.
