~ Clarie ~ ~

I just stood there holding my birthday cake watching Erica sob into the rouges chest. Corry ran over and wraps his arms around both of them. What the hell is going on? I don't know but I'm gonna find out."I'm sorry, but am I missing something?  Why is there a roug in our kitchen. And even better why are you hugging him?" Corry looked up and then it hit me... that's who the roug remind me of. His eyes were the same dark color as Corry's. Erica pulled away and walked over to me. "Clarie sweetie,  there are some things Corry and I didn't tell you. A long time ago our pack was attacked by rouges,  our son was killed... or so we thought." They had a son? Why didn't they tell us? "W-what do you mean so you thought?" I could feel tears forming in my eyes, why are you crying?  Don't you see?! why would they want to keep some girl that they adopted, when they could have their son? Their own flesh and blood? Ohh... but they arnt luke that! "Hey princess.  Didn't think I would be seeing you this soon." This time I really looked at him. He has Corry's eyes and body structure,  but he has Erica's hair. "Wait you two know each other?  How?" Erica still had tears coming down her face still, I look Drake in the eyes. I can feel the anger boiling inside of me. "Just one of those  crazy twists of fate." I then run out of the house, as soon as I get off the deck Cara took over. Where are we going? Anywhere. Good.

~~Drake~~

After the girl, and my parents ran out of the house I started to walk around the first floor. Nothing was different, the couch is in the same spot,  so is the tv and dad's lazy boy that he and I used to fall asleep in every night. I walk over to the wall that used to have sooo many pictures of me with family, and friends... but they were gone.  I start to imagine all of them. Me and Noah at his birthday, me and dad working on my baby sisters crib. Wait! Was that girl our sister?  Befor I could awnsere I heard someone walk in behind me, I turn around and there stood my dad. "Dad... was that girl my little sister?" His eyes fill with tears again, "No... well yes but not the one you are thinking of. When the rouges attacked your mom and I ran over to Noah's house to get you, I left her alone. She was attacked.... they kicked her in the stomach. She lost the baby." If my sister is dead, who is this?

"Well then who was that?"

"He Doctor told us that if your Mom ever carried a baby again, the baby wouldn't make it past the sixth month... so a month ago we decided to adopt a girl, she just turned 17." He looks so proud, he has only been with her for a month but she already has him wrapped around her finger. "Why did she run out like that?"

"She had a bad child hood. She saw her parents murdered right in front of her when she was six.  Then she was in and out of foster care, until social workers tracked down a family friend... but she didn't want her so she was up for adoption. That's how we found her."
I don't care if she isn't our sister by blood. I feel protective over her. Not mate protective, but brotherly. I hear ya. "Is she coming back?"

"I am sure she will... but your mom isn't gonna rest till she is back."

~~Clarie ~ ~

I ended up at the pack house. Clarie Cole is trying to talk to us. Ok let him .
Clarie?!
Where are you babe, your family and I are worried sick!
Don't worry I'm on my way back.
Where?
To your place. .. I'm about to walk in.

I get to the back yard and shift, shit I don't have clothes. Hey Cole bring an extra shirt. I hear the screen door open and slam shut, I quickly ran behind a tree.  "Clarie? Where are you? I brought a shirt!" I stick my head out and wave him over, he jogs over to me, and gives me the shirt. I slip it on and it literally goes below my knees. I walk out from behind the tree and Cole pulls me into a hug. "I was so worried about you Clarie... why did you run?"

I just shake my head and pull away, "can we talk about this inside?" Cole nodded and pulled me into the house. We take a seat in the living room, "well Erica and Corry have Drake back... I'm scared that..."

I don't want to admit this, especially to Cole, I just stare at the carpet. I feel Coles hand tilt my chin up, so he could look me in the eyes. "Scared that....?"

"I'm scared that they won't want me anymore... why would they? I'm just some girl that they took in, and Drake is their SON." Tears start to run down my face, Cole pulls me into his chest and whispers nice words to me. "Clarie. They would never get rid of you, they love you. You should hear how proudly Corry shows you off at pack meetings 'well my daughter Clarie is so smart she could out whit anyon anywhere any time' And how Erica brags to all the lady's at their weekly lunches 'my daughter Clarie is soo beautiful,  she is alpha Coles mate.' Clarie they wouldn't give you up even if their lives depended on it."

"Your right..." i let out a loud yawn, "go to sleep i will sing you a song."

"Oh uou can sing?"

He just smiles and starts singin.I was about to fall asleep when I heard the front door open, "Oh my gosh Clarie I was soo wworried." I heard Erica sob, I get up quickly and run into her arms,"I'm so sorry mom. I won't do it again." I heard her gasp, she huge me tighter, "I'm sorry Clarie we should have told you about Drake a lot sooner." Then Corry walks in, "Hey sugar, please never do that again." Then he pulls me and mom into a hug,"I won't dad." A tear drips from his eye, he leans in and kisses my forehead. When I was let out of the hug I saw Drake just standing by the door way. I walk over to him, "hello my name is Clarie. I'm your little sister." I hold my hand out for a hand shake, he just shakes his head and pulls me into a hug,"Oh no you don't princess,  in this family we are all about the hugging."
