4740 Words
Please read author note at the end. *Time skips forward 1 month* Kylie POV: I have been really down in the slumps lately. Luckily though I met this new girl, I actually really like her. I feel like there is some connection there. I met her a few days ago. She is a rogue wolf and she just transferred to Blue Moon High. Even though she is a rouge she firmly believes in her education. She is strong, a fighter and I admire her everyday for that. This girl has probably saved my life..for now. I haven't seen Jake for a few days, he has this family dinner thing tomorrow. Jake knows I'm in the dumps right now but he knows he can't do anything and doesn't know how bad it is. This past month my connection with Jake has grown incredibly. We even discovered that he can feel some of my emotions sometimes. This only can happen though if the emotion is strong enough. I have gotten to know his friends better to. Actually I really enjoy having some people to talk to. Schools has also been pretty good. I mean I guess the best it can get for me. My grades aren't too bad. They would be better but I can't always do my work or focus on it. My fighting has improved tremendously. I wish I could say the same to the mental battle. I mentally slap myself, what a comment to make. My father is pretty much the same at home. My birthday is really close and I think that is part of my problems. This birthday makes 13 years he has made my life a living hell. I want to get out of this so badly. To not have to feel all this pain. To live a free and better life. And I finally have a plan.. *********** I just got out of school and was walking out of the building doors when I thought of something. ‘If I was to go, would anybody care? Would they even find me?’ An image of Jake flashed in my mind. I scoffed at the thought. Nobody would care that I was gone. They probably wouldn't even know I was gone so they wouldn't find me. I thought, a tear slipping from my eye. I was suddenly pulled from my dark thoughts by a hand on my shoulder. I was so taken back by the gesture I jumped turning around squealing, throwing my hands up to protect my head. I quickly dropped my arms realizing that my dad wouldn't be here. I open my tear stained eyes wide, partly in fear, partly surprised to see this person.  “Jake, its um it's been a few days.” I say searching his face only to find a look of concern and confusion. My face started to turn into a confused look too. ‘Why does he look concerned?’ I thought.  “Hey Ke.” He said trailing off. “I wanted to come check up on you. I know you haven't been feeling the best lately.” He said. His voice oozing with concern now. I kept looking at him, noticing his face kept hardening and softening, as his eyes would slightly change from his dark brown eyes to black. His eyes are so dark it's hard to see when they go black. It looks like he is fighting his wolf for control. He looks so stiff and I wonder why. “Hey Jake, What's wrong?” I asked concerned. His body goes rigid as he looks hesitant. He finally sighs giving in. “I can smell my mate on you.” He replies softly. I smile at him knowing who. I know he wants a mate so i'm happy he can finally find her. “Have you met anyone new?” He questions, a longing look in his eyes. I smile softly, they could make a good match. “Yes, I have, she and I have become friends over the last few days.” I say still slightly smiling. I see him start to slowly smile. “Who?” He asked with excitement trying to play it cool. “She is a rogue wolf who transferred here. She is 18..and her name is Rosalie.” I finish, watching his smile grow wider as he mumbles the name to himself. “I neeed to meet her, please?” He begs. “Ya, she should be walking out of the school any second.” I say to him seeing excitement. “Let's go back by the doors so she can see us.” I say. He nods in approval and we head back up. I few minutes later and she walkes out the door. I watch her as she freezes. She slowly tilts her head back, lifting her nose in the air taking a big whiff. Suddenly her head snaps in our direction and I see her eyes go black as she wisperes something. “Mate” They both say. Suddenly she appears in front of him and smiles. “Hi mate.” She wisperes. “Hello gorgeous.” He responds with the biggest smile.  I realize that I need to get home and they should get to know each other.  “I am going to go and let you two get to know each other. I say.Smiling a bit. “Thank you Ke.” He says still with a big grin. “See you two later.” I say walking off. I make it back home and head straight for my room. I quickly take out my homework and start doing that. I finish my homework about 30 minutes later and get up. I start on my house chores and finally finish that around 2 hours later. Sweeping, mopping, cleaning counters and tables, cleaning windows, bedrooms, bath rooms, dusting, vacuuming, ect. When i'm done with that I make my way to the kitchen. I make my dad some dinner and hand it to him. He punches me in the ribs saying I didn't cook something right. I grunted in pain, blinking back the tears and head straight for my bed. I don't even change my clothes, I just go lay down. I sigh knowing tomorrow I have to get up and do this all over again. As soon as I lay down the darkness takes over. ******* True to my word I wake up bright and early only to repeat my usual day. I get up, clean the house, make my dad breakfast, make myself look somewhat presentable for school, and change, then I walk to school. When I get to school I smile seeing Xander and Rosalie holding hands walking together. I get my stuff from my locker and head over to them. “Sooo..You guys a thing?” I question seeng Rose smile at me giggling lightly. Xander chuckles and nods his head, Rose blushing a light pink. I chuckle amused just when I hear the bell ring. I hurry off to class and go on as usual. It's finally lunch time and I meet back up with the two love birds. I see how they look at eachother, faces full of love and both smiling widely. They are both laughing and enjoying each others company so much I just decide to let them be. I have my head down just slowly eating lunch. I don't really have much appetite right now. I am lost in my thoughts when I hear a question, I think it was directed towards me so I glance up. Xander is looking right at me with concern. Still don't know why.  “Hmm? Did you say something?” I ask him since he is staring at me. “Ya, umm you'll be ok when I go to my family dinner right?” He asked. I chuckled darkly trying to sound humorous. “Ya Xander the world doesn't revolve around you.” I reply back.  “Ya I know. It's just I know you have been feeling off lately so I wanted to make sure.” “Don't worry about me Xander. You have been gone the last couple of days. I'm still fine right? Plus I have Rose now to.” I said trying to reassure him.  “Yes you do.” Rose said, smiling at me. “Um Ke she will also be going to dinner tonight with me.” Xander said softly “Xander, I figured as much. It's fine really.” I said “Plus I have plans tonight anyway.” I added. “You do? Really? What are they?” He said looking like he felt a little better about leaving me. “It's nothing really. I'm just doing a little something by myself for my birthday.” I said smiling at the thought. I did have plans. My life was about to change. “Is today really your birthday? Why didn't you tell me?” They both said looking a little hurt. “No it's not today. I'm just giving myself a little present before my birthday. I know it's silly but I don't care.” I said, still smiling slightly. “Well what are you gonna do?” They said in unison, with curious looks. “I'm going to be free.” I replied looking at them.  Just as they were about to ask what I meant the bell rang signalling the end of lunch. We all got up and went to our next class. After that the day went on as usual. Go to a few more classes and end the day with a fighting class. Though this time Rose was in his class and they were always smiling at one another. He wouldn't let her fight while I kinda got my ass kicked today. I am usually a better fighter but the punch yesterday flared up all my rib pain so It was very painful to move. The class just ended so Xander, Rose, and I were walking back into the school for our stuff. Well they were walking, I was limping. Xander had asked if I needed to see the nurse but I just kept saying that I was fine and just needed some painkillers. After a few minutes I was able to walk more noramly. Just in time to, I had a bit of a walk ahead of me. We were walking outside when Xander turned to ask another question. “You sure you will be fine.” He asked me again. I nodded my head smiling slightly.  “Yes I am fine. I have plans remember.” I stated even though it sorta sounded like a question. “Ok. Me and Rose have to be on our way then. We will see you tomorrow.” All while he said that I just starred at them looking very grateful that they walked into my life. “You two have fun. And you guys make a great couple. Goodbye.” They looked like they wanted to say more but I quickly turned around and walked off. My eyes were a little teary. I wasn't going home. Not today, hopefully not ever. I started walking into the direction of the woods. I had to walk super deep into the woods. I didn't want people to see, I wanted to make sure nobody stopped me. I also wanted to be at peace. So I went farther and deeper into the woods. I could hear the birds chirping and the bunnies hopping. I smiled, ready to be at peace. *Trigger warning. There will be mentions of self harm and a suicide attempt. If this bothers you please skip this and scroll to the next bold letters. This scene is not vital to the story, it just helps the story flow a little better for whats going to happen. I will let you know when this scene is over.* I see a river to my left and walk over to it. I pull my backpack off my shoulder and open it up. I pull out some painkillers I got from a student today. He said they were strong and to only take one maybe at most two. That with my body weight one would definitely be just fine. I pulled out four pills from the little baggie. I step down into the river, soaking my black sneakers and jeans. I lower myself down a little more and scoop up some water. I put the pill in the mouth and take some water into my mouth to swallow them. I tip my head back as the pills glide down my throat. I didn't want to be in any pain before I took my life. All the years of abuse, I didn't want to feel it in my last moments. I step back out of the water and reach into my bag again. This time I pull out my best friend. A razor blade. This blade will take all my pain away. I start to smile while the tears fall from my eyes. I just can't do this anymore. Last night before I went to bed I went into my bathroom and pulled out one of the blades then I put it in my bag preparing for this moment. The tears fall from my eyes as I step back into the river with the blade in my hand. My jeans soaking more, the further I went. The pain is finally lifted from me as the pills kick in and I'm left in a trance. I may have taken to many but nothing can hurt me anymore. I seep further into the river until im to my waist in the cold water. It makes me shiver. It's so cold and yet at the same time I barely feel it. I raise the blade up to my right arm and put it to my wrist. I start to apply pressure and glide the blade all the way to about my elbow. One single cut on that arm. I switch the blade to my other hand and repeat the same thing. All the way from my wrist to my elbow. I look at my arm as they quickly start to let the blood seep out. Next I lower my jeans on my right side exposing my hip and make a cut from my lower stomach to the top of my hip. Its small but fairly deep. I do the same thing to my other side. I pull my jeans back up and tuck the front part of my shirt in the front part of my jeans. I start to feel the effects of the blood loss and smile. I start to feel a little dizzy and lightheaded so I finally take the last step and lower myself into the water. I am now floating looking at the water above me. It's tinted red from my blood. My tears were washed away when I went under water. I was still crying and smiling when I felt it getting hard to breathe. I refused to take that breath though. Just as it got to be almost unbearable the blood loss finally caught up. I closed my eyes and let the darkness consume me ready to leave the world. ‘I can't wait to see you mom.’ With my last thought I passed out. ****** This scene is now over. However still read with caution. Somebody still has to find her… *Rewind the time a little* Xander POV: We just left the parking lot of the school. I was hesitant on leaving Ke but she said she had plans, and though she looked sad she also looked happy about them. I really needed to go to this dinner though. Me and my parents haven't seen my brother Xavier in awhile and I have my mate to be introduced. So I trusted her word that she was fine and took my flower, Rose, to dinner. We were pulling onto the property when I got a wave of relief yet sadness and happiness rolled into one. I shook it off and smiled a bit. I knew they were Kylie’s feeling. She has been sad a lot lately, I have felt it here and there. So her feeling of relief and happiness made me happy. We walked in the door and I introduced Rose to my parents. Mom said Xavier was in another room. So we all started walking into the kitchen when we saw Xavier come out of a room. He was smiling big and started to say “Hey brother-” when his eyes went completely black in no time at all. His smile dropped and his face became more serious. He used his wolf speed and in the flash of an eye he was in front of me. He grabbed me by my shirt with two hands and pulled my close to him. He dropped his head and took a big whiff of me. He quickly dropped me and said one word that made me freeze. “Mate” He said. Everyone gasped. “Where is my mate. Who do I smell on you.” Xavier asked with a snarl but a pleading look. I immediately knew who it was. That's why I have a connection with her. “Brother you might want to sit down.” I said a little sadness in my voice. We went to the kitchen table everyone wanting to know why I said that. When I sat down I started to feel physical things from Ke. Like being lightheaded and dizzy, along with alot of pain mostly emotional. This only made things harder. “Xavier I am pretty sure I know who it is but you can't have her.” I said. Sadness evident in my voice. I wanted my brother to have his mate and luna. But she doesn't want him and I knew that. “WHO? And why can't I have her?” He begged “Kylie is her name. But she doesn't want a mate.” I said. You can try to win her over but you will have to start with that. But I want to talk to her first to make sure she is ready and hopefully happier.” I told him.  “Kylie.” He whispered back smiling a little but on the verge of tears. “If I can't meet her right now I want you to tell me about her.” He said smiling as a tear fell. I was expecting him to be ragefull but its like he understood she would take some time. Just then I started to feel some pain in my arms and hips. I dipped my head and pulled a face of pain. I had to be here for my brother at the moment. He needed me since he couldn't have his mate now. I took a breath and raised my head back up. I just looked at everyone smiling. I was happy to be around everyone but I was still worried. I suddenly started to feel very cold. Then I felt as if I was drowning and the color drained from my face. I looked at Xavier to see he looked a little uncomfortable, I think he could feel the smallest fraction of what Ke was going through. I felt like my head was about to explode and I couldnt breath, I still felt the pain in my arms and hips. I stood up really fast causing the chair to fall back and everyone's eyes went to mine, but I only needed to look at one. I looked at Xavier looking scared and worried my face still pale. He had to know this. “Xavier.” I spoke my voice sounding strained. “There's one more thing you need to know.” I said worried. “Xavier I can feel Kylie’s emotions or pains. But only when they are really strong and it doesn't always happen.” I said quickly. He looked at me worried and confused. “Why do you look like that? Why did you say it like that?” Xavier questioned. “Xavier, Kylie is in trouble.” I said frantically. The color drained from his face as we both bolted out of the door. I mind linked the others to stay there. That we will take care of it. Me and Xavier were mindlinking each other while I was also linking with my wolf. ‘Xavier im going to let my wolf try and find her.’ I said to him. ‘Me to’ He simply replied, focusing on the task at hand. My wolf started to lead me to the wood. My stomach dropped but I figured he was right because it felt like she was in cold water. We soon made it to the woods and started running even faster.  ‘I can smell her now’ my wolf said ‘I just caught her scent’. Xavier told me quickly.   We started running deeper and deeper into the woods until we found a river. I ran over to the river and started running alongside the river. About 10 minutes later I found a black backpack on the land by the water and knew it was her. I turned around and told Xavier `This is Kylie’s black backpack’ I said to him I turned my head and looked into the river and my heart sank. There she layed in the water floating down stream with a small pool of blood flowing with her as she goes. I jumped into the river as fast as I could not focussing on the cold water that surrounds me. I hear Xavier jump in just as fast, as we swim over and grab her. Once we have a hold on her I glance up at him to see tears falling from his eyes. He looks so hurt. We pull her back onto land and Xavier tries cpr. He doesn't get any response.  “Xavier we have to get her to a hospital and soon because she has lost a lot of blood and I don't know how long she was in the water.” I said on the verge of crying. ‘Why didn't I just stay with her? I could have saved her.’ I thought. ‘Xander you wouldn't have been able to stop this. Remember she always goes straight home? No going out on the weekends, no staying after school, none of it.’ My wolf says feeling just as sad he lost his Luna, but trying to console me.  Xavier picks up Ke and we run to the hospital as fast as we can. We finally get there and doctors are already lined up waiting for us. Xavier probably mind linked them to be ready. They take her away very fast and start working on her. Me and my brother sat down in the room she will be in, just to give us some privacy. I hear him crying and I lean over to hug him.  “They will do their best to treat her. She is strong. She will pull through, she has to.” Xander cooed his brother trying to comfort him. He continued to cry until the doctors came back in with Ke. We both jumped up when we heard the door open. “How is she?” I said with worry and hope. “Will she be ok? will she make it?” Xavier asked with panic.  “Calm down you two. She is stable right now but we have some news. You two should sit down given the situation its alot.” The doctor said, We both did as told so we could know what was going on. “Ok, let's start from the top. She lost a lot of blood. She will be very weak because of this.She also had water in her lungs causing her to suffocate. She seems to have some sort of drug in her system. It seems like a painkiller but it was very strong and I believe she took too many. She also has many healed and unhealed cuts, bruises, scars, fracters, breaks, and she has had silver and wolfsbane in her system before. Unfortunately there are some unhealed things I couldn't take care of and some breaks that healed wrong. What I am most concerned about is her ribs. It appears she has ribs currently broken right now and some that healed wrong. This will cause her tons of pain but I am worried if she were to shift things would be worse. It would be very dangerous. Overall she should recover but the road is long. I am also a little worried about her head. She more than likely has a concussion. She will need a lot of help from here on out till she is fully recovered. It will also be worse for her since she has no wolf yet. Does anyone know when her birthday is? She shouldn't shift for awhile but I need to know how long we have.” By the time she finished we were both crying again.  “Her birthday is coming up. Like in the next week or two.” I stated worried about her shifting. She either wont shift because her wolf is too weak or she will shift and it could possibly kill her. This is very scary. I just hope she will be ok. I can't lose her. I was pulled from my thoughts when I hear my brother speak up. “Why does she have countless breaks and bruises and so much more? And will she be ok if she shifts?” He said sadly. “Well I still don't know what will happen if she shifts but it could be fatal. And it looks like this could be abuse. I couldn't fix her ribs, she was too weak for another surgery.” The doctor finished.” Xavier suddenly stood up. His eyes were black with hatred and anger. “ABUSE!?” He roared. He didn't like the idea of hurting what was his. He would protect her from the world. He is also angry at himself. Why am I such a bad mate? I failed her. He kept thinking. “Are you sure its abuse?” I asked. “I am not positive but I am pretty sure that's what it is. It is the only thing that really makes sense with all my information. “AAAAAH” Xavier roared again. “I will find the person responsible, and KILL THEM! He screamed. His eyes were still black, he was seething with anger. He was breathing really hard and just as he seemed like he was about her burst, the doctor jabbed something into his arm. He started to calm down and his eyes began to droop, he started to sway so I reached up and grabbed him. The doctor grabbed his other arm and we guided him over the a chair. Once he sat down it took seconds for him to pass out. “Sorry about that. But I didn't know what he would do. And alphas are very protective of their mates so..I just figured this way was best for everyone's safety.” The doctor apologized. “It's fine, but how did you know they were mates?” I asked. Nobody told her that information. “Well I was pretty sure from the way he was reacting to her state. Also, even though Kylie is unconscious she looks more relaxed when she is around him. She sometimes looks like she is smelling his scent and occasionally the smallest smile would come on her face. “But she doesn't want a mate.” I said sadly. “That may be because of her situation. Hopefully Alpha can change her mind.” With that the doctor walked out. I pulled my chair up closer to her bed. I leaned back and sighed. I can't believe she has been through all of this and I didnt even know. I'm her friend and I could figure it out. My thoughts slowly left my brain as I began to doze off. Soon I couldn't fight the sleep anymore and let the darkness take me.
