She never understood how he could care for her so much.

She never understood how he thought she was beautiful.

She never understood how the Moon Goddess could let him have a mate like her. 

He never understood how she couldn't see how perfect she was.

BOOK ONE. IT SUCKS. ALL OF MY BOOKS DO. I'M A CRINGEY WRITER AND I'M PROUD.

My bare feet pound into the ground, creating a thump with every step I take. I could feel it : the energy, the anger, the desperation to get me back. 

His howls echoed the empty night sky and I could hear the way his breath would even out as he sniffed for my scent. His pawns of wolves would crowd around, trying to catch the smell of their next prey- me. 

Just a little farther, past the boarder. I would finally be free. Free from blood, free from pain, free from him. I'm never going back. I finally spit the boarder, only 5 feet away. 

"Fleur stop." His command could be heard from miles. I freeze, my fingers twitching to take a few more steps. Wolves pile up on the opposite boarder. 

"What do you think will happen if you pass those boarders?" He calls out. I stay silent, keeping my eyes trained on the wolves who watch curiously. "They will tear you apart Fleur, they will rip you to pieces. You haven't been outside in 8 years little one, you don't understand the dangers of the world, come back with me." He continue on. 

I swallow the lump in my throat, finally meeting his dull brown eyes, "I'd rather them tear me apart then to ever go back to you." I spit, taking a leap of faith and I run over the boarder into another packs territory. They all crouch down, ready to pounce with their lips pulled back into snarls. I close my eyes, finally giving up. "Goodbye." Was all I whispered.

My Mother Runs With Wolves

51 parts Complete

A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers. ***** It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life. [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]
