From The Bottom To The Top

Time To Wake Up

AMAYA POV:

At some point I manage to start moving and I’m now deep into the woods, I don’t know how long I’ve been walking for but I start to see this light golden glow combing from a cave so I decide to follow it, yes I know that this is probably a bad idea but like they say curiosity killed the cat. As I get closer to the golden glow I get this clam wave wash over me and then the sent hits me, the smell of lavender, and I instantly know who it is and run towards the figure now standing in front of me as if my life depends on it.

“Mum!?!?” I shout tackle hugging her 

“Oh my sweet little girl I’ve missed you so much” my mum says 

“I can’t believe it’s you” I can’t stop the tears from escaping anymore, after all I haven’t cried since the day she died, I promised not to give the black moon pack the satisfaction.

“I just wanted to let you know that you have been so strong honey, and I’m so proud of you! Look at the beautiful young lady you have grown into, yes you could do with a bit more meat on your bones but that’s easily solved” she says with a massive grin on her face 

“Your proud of me ? But how could you be?! I left you there for dead, I should have stayed and helped !” I say between sobs 

“Yes honey, of course I’m proud of you! You were only 8 years old what would you have achieved by stepping in other than getting yourself killed, you hadn’t even gained your powers yet, let alone your wolf “

“My powers what are you on about mum ?”

“And you was to young to remember that as well by the look of it, I’m a witch honey so that means your half wolf and half witch, and by the colour of your eyes your not far of gaining her!” She says sounding enthusiastically.

“This is just too match for me to handle, and my eyes? This has got to be a dream I’m just making this all up!” I say in disbelief 

“No honey this is not a dream, but I wish I had more time with you but unfortunately I have to go now, but don’t forget that I’ll always be watching over you and that no matter what I’ll always be proud of you, goodbye for now honey, love you” she says giving me one last hug and disappearing before I could protest.

She could have at least woke me up when she left, guessing I’m going to have to get myself outa this one as well. While I’m thinking for a way out I relies there is only one thing I haven’t tried and that’s shifting, although I don’t think it will be that easy I try it anyways, but I try it anyways. After shifting I open my eyes and low and behold I’m laying in a hospital bed hooked up to a load of machines measuring my vitals. I can’t believe that actually worked!!

Surprisingly I’m not thirsty or feeling weak, I feel almost healed as well and that’s good. As I go to sit up I see the Hunk of an alpha from the woods face down on the side of the bed with his hand on my hand. I allow myself to feel the happiness of having a mate before I snap myself back into reality, he is an alpha and if he is anything like Denis I don’t want a mate. But for now I don’t want to think about this, so I move his hand off my one gently so I don’t wake him and slowly stand up and before I leave I cover him over with the blanket that was covering me and walk out the room. 

As soon as I leave I’m hit with the instant recognition of my old home and it almost brings a tear to my eye but I shake it off, I may have cried when I was out cold, but I’m not going to while I’m awake. Knowing that everyone will be asleep because it’s late, and that the only guards will be on the outside of the palace, (because let’s face it that’s what this is, it is a palace/castle ) I walk around care free for the 1st time in ages, I just find myself walking around without a destination, I’m so stuck down memory lane I don’t realise I’m outside until a huge gust of wind goes past me and I shiver, I look up at the place I used to call home and take it all in, it really is a breathtakingly beautiful and I can’t help but smile.

I turn around and head to the gave because I just want to be close to my mum one more time, once I get there I realise why I found her in a cave in my dream, it’s because her grave is like a a cave. I just sit there in silence for a while reminiscing on all the good memories we had together. 

One of my favourite memory is when she was teaching me the basics of standing up for myself and I managed to out smart my dad and brother, and my second favourite memory is when we moved me out of sharing a room with my brother and me getting to choose my room and what colour it was and everything to go into it. I chose the turret to be my room, yes the whole thing, the downstairs of the turret was where all my toys went, the middle floor is where all my clothes was and the top was where my bed room, books, tv, balcony and bathroom was, and obviously I had to have a fireman’s pole going from my bedroom all the way past the middle floor and to my toys.

I’ve always loved the colours red, black, grey, pink and peach. So my bedroom was like a dark shade of red with light grey fluffy carpet, the closet was a sparkly peach and I had a light grey fluffy carpet and my toy room was bubble gum pink with again a light grey fluffy carpet and the bathroom was white grey sparkly walls, black counters and a white tiled floor with a mirror behind the door. It was my best day of my life when I moved into that room. I wonder if it has stayed the same over the past 10 years or if they got rid of everything.
