She had come to the lake for silence. Away from her mother's constant complaints and her sisters' bickering, this was her only escape. She hadn't expected to find anything more than peace here.

Then, there was a shout-followed by a splash.

She was on her feet in seconds, rushing to the edge of the wharf. It was dark, but she could just make out a figure struggling in the water.

"Are you okay?"

"No! Not really!"

Without thinking, Nola threw herself down on her stomach, extending her arm toward the water. "Here! Take my hand!"

*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it. "You're blind." ~ Monet was born into a particularly prestigious area of her wolf pack, to parents of extremely high standards.

Reaching down for a small shell she examined his face and decided she wouldn't try to marr it. Instead, she whipped the seashell as fast as she could towards his chest. The man grunted from the impact, and with the water lapping up against him once again, he finally opened his eyes. "Of course he sends me here." Book one of the Find Series
