My heart had stopped. The words kept ringing in my head.

You're human

You're human

You're human

I couldn't even speak. The shock had rendered me speechless. I had lost parts of myself that were so important to me. I lost my whole being. My mind just can't seem to come to terms with it. But seeing the large cast still wrapped around my thigh made me well aware.

I was indeed a human.

It's been two months since I found out. Two whole months since I last saw my mother and mate. I was beyond distraught. Helpless to say the least. I couldn't do anything myself. I was always asking for help and needing it more than I'd like to admit. My broken femur did not allow a lot of movement. You could imagine how climbing stairs is. Which inevitably resulted in me sleeping downstairs where I couldn't strain myself. It absolutely sucked.

I felt so pathetic. I didn't feel like a queen. But why would I either way. I couldn't be a ruler to a spieces I wasn't part of.On top of that my mate hasn't accepted me. He probably saw my state and thought I was too weak. Though neither his looks nor his words made me think that way. It was because he didn't fight for me when I was forcefully taken away. I'm heart broken. Avour left me. Left me in my broken state. Literally.
I hadn't even found out his true identity. I was still shocked that I had found him so soon. He looked so good and couldn't resist me. There was no doubt he felt the connection between us. But perhaps it wasn't strong enough to make him stay.

I was sitting on the porch staring at the grey clouds. The atmosphere was sombre. Alpha Christian had informed me to stay in the house telling me it wasn't safe. I needed fresh air so I came outside but even outside I felt suffocated. A war between the werewolves and vampires had started. Everything was too much to bare. Most of the men and women in my pack had gone to war and everytime someone died we all felt it. I wanted to help but I knew I would only get in the way. I was a lost cause. Useless.

The front door slid open and Anna took a seat beside me. I had been told once I got out of hospital that she knew about supernatural creatures. So when they told me I could go home. Avour told us to take her with. Hoping she would be kept safe. She reminded me of Avour. Everyday I was reminded that I was on the verge of being rejected. It is not her physical features that makes me weary but the connection I feel towards her. It made me decide that if I was to be rejected I'll reject him first. I hope it will be less painful that way.

"Hey" she says looking far ahead into the forest. The trees were dancing to the wind unaware of the rising threats and fires.

"Hi" I whispered back.

"I know this isn't easy but it will get better" she said "Avour isn't trying to hurt you he's trying to protect you"

"How can he protect me when he isn't even near me" I spat "I don't want to talk about your brother if that's why you're here you can just leave"

I did not mean to sound so rude but I was rolling in my pain. I had so many things on my mind. So many questions that no one was willing to give me answers to. I was tired of their comforting bullshit. I know they are hiding something from me. Everyone was, even Addison.

Anna looked at me with an unreadable look. I stared back unwavering. It seemed like forever before she finally opened her mouth. Conviction swirling in her eyes.
"You're a bitch" she hissed "all I've ever done is try to comfort you and tell you the truth but you just spit into my face"

"I didn't ask you to" I yell "I didn't ask for any of this but it's happening and you need to get a grip and get the fuck out my face. I don't need your comforting bullshit, if your brother wants to protect me he should tell me from what and not send his little sister to do his job"
