Whispering Pines Woods

Lie to me

I woke up to the sounds of arguing.

"What do you mean you shifted in front of her?"

Shifted? The events of last night painfully came back to me.

Cora dressed in leather, saying she killed me, and telling me to run. The wolf clawing my chest, Finn changing from wolf to man, saying I'm a monster. Just like him.

"Alpha, I couldn't control it. The Lovec's were tailing me. But listen to this-- Mikael Lovec's daughter.... Nora? Knew her. She said to her father that she killed Gemma, and then told her to run... They sounded like they were friends."

I suddenly sprung from my bed, and realized that someone changed my clothes... I really hoped it was a girl. I looked at my clothes again and grimaced. I was in a tight crop top, and jean shorts that looked like underwear.

"What do you mean.. Friends? Are you saying my daughter is--was friends with the most powerful hunters in the country.... possibly the world?"

Hunter?

" Well, considering that she only shot at me, and not Gemma, and she told her to run.... Yes."

I heard a banging sound, and the ground was shuddering underneath my bare feet.

"There is also two more things, Alpha."

"What else could be more significant than the fact my daughter nearly got killed?"

"She was attacked last night by Alexi. She dug her claws in her chest, but Gemma was clutching silver arrows, and she dug them into her chest. It did no damage, but it was enough for her to run off."

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE ATTACKED MY DAUGHTER!"

Daughter? He had no right to that name anymore.

Opening the door, I looked out.

Finn and my father were in a death stare, it appeared.  There was a broken chair, and glass all over the floor. It looked like a tornado hit from the inside.

"You have no right to call me that. Not anymore."

They both looked me up and down.

"What in hell are you wearing?" My father demanded.

Looking down, I realized I still had on the slutty assemble that some one put on me.

"I don't know. Some one put it on me last night."

Finn looked me up and down again and smiled.

"I guess they were going for stripper pole couture."

I smacked him across the face.

"You really don't want to go there. I want to get out of here. Your---a monster. I do not belong here! I want to go home!"

Angry tears streaked my face.

"You can't go home, Gemma. You have a duty here. Your one of us."

I started to turn the other way.

"No! No! I am nothing like you! I don't attack people! I am not a monster! I am a human being... but you.... you are mutants!"

My dad gripped my arm hard.

"Your hurting me! Stop it! Let go of me!"

"You turn 18 tommorow. It is the full moon. Usually we can change when ever, but the first change for females occurs when they turn 18 when the full moon is near. If you leave now to your mother... You'll most likley kill her. The first time you change, you can't control yourself. Your more monster than man----woman. No matter how good you are on the inside, the wolf inside over rules all the feeling you have towards anyone and turns it into bloodlust. Hate, love, envy, lust, jealousy, all makes you want to kill. Do you understand me?"
