"Mae Walker I've had about enough of your antics one more miss step from you and I will be forced to suspend you. You and I both know if you continue on like this and get yourself kicked out you will loose your pack housing aswell. So I suggest your straighten up and get through the rest of this year and next quietly and peacefully."

"O can it you old bat, you're not my mother."

"You are lucky she isn't hear today to see this dispicable behavior of yours. She is probably rolling over in her grave at the disappointment you have become. You once has such great promise don't let her passing destroy your future Mae."

"First off don't ever talk about my mother again, secondly if you know what's good for you, you will leave me the hell alone or I will..."

"THATS ENOUGH MAE"

In walks the big bad alpha himself using his alpha voice and commanding me into silience. Blessed moon goddess I hate him. It's his fault shes gone and I'm all alone now. My wolf still doesn't talk to me. He didn't even have the decency to come to her funeral. Not that I would have allowed it. How could I have wasted ten years of friendship on this worthless ass.

"I suggest you do as Mrs. Louis says and get your act in line. If I have to come up here again you will be out of this school, your home and this pack. Is that under stood?"

"Yes alpha." I say through gritted teeth. I can not wait to be out of here. If I had enough money saved up I'd already be gone but I don't get my moms inhearitance until next February when I turn eighteen and finally I will be able to skip out on this hell hole. This tiny forest town isn't big enough for the two of us anymore. I hate tyler and ever where I go he is there. I can't even go to work at the coffee shop without him showing up.

I storm out of the office and go straight to my car. Screw them if they think Im going back to class. I pass by the bathroom and can smell that Jess is in there smoking so I pop my head in.

"I'm Ditching, you coming?"

I know right of all people I could have made friends with, Jessica "the demon" Devonte is the one I picked. But after mom passed she showed up to her funeral. She appologized for always ragging on me and let me stay with her and her folk for a while until the pack got me into my own place. Now she practically lives with me. She and her mate Justin crash with me all the time so I'm never truely alone. The two of them met when Jess decided to join the patrol trainees class to torment Tyler on my behalf but now she actually loves it. Justins a cool guy he adores Jess and they both believe in alot of things I do. Unfortunately hes also close with Tyler. They were both on their way to getting into the elite academy until one day they came home and said they were both fired, another fine act from our failing alpha.

We all protest the obsurd werewolve drinking laws together and throw the best house parties. Werewolves can't get drunk at least not as quickly as humans so why shouldn't we be able to kick one back after a stressful day at that hell of a school. Sure we do it more frequently then that but that's not the point.

"Ya I'll meet you at the car I just need to let Justin know I won't be in class later."

"Okay meet you there in ten."

The towns really is not all that bad. I used to like school and I still pass all my classes. I just get so angry sometimes when people look at me the way they do or try to parent me like they are my mom. She's gone they can't change that and they need to stop trying to replace her.

When Jess walks up she says nothing. She just jumps into the front seat and nods. She already knows where we are headed.

After that night I shifted and ran into the woods, I was stuck in my wolf form for a while and stayed on that cliff for days. My wolf never spoke up she just wimpered with me. The pack sent a search party out for me and Jess lead the group that finally found me. She's an avid hiker and knows the forest better then anyone mostly because she grows her own plants for smoking. I know it's so taboo. We are werewolves, we age slower then humans and have nearly impecable immune systems yet we are still determined to destroy ourselfs hoe ever possible.

Now this cliff has become my safe place. We come here atleast once a week normally to bing drink but also just destress and get away from the world.

We sat on the cliff for a while before she finally said something.

"Mae, you know Justin and I are about to graduate. We both talked and think it's best we go to patrol school and get back into good standing with them. I never realized it in the beginning but I really loved being apart of the patrol and I really think I could lead them one day. I focused too much on all the torturing of tyler but I think If we can get into the basic graduate school Hell rething letting us into the elite academy. I know you've been through a lot so if you want we can put it off for a year, but I really think it's time for us to stop screwing around and focus on our future."

I know she's right. I probably should do the same. But I'm not ready to face him. I can't hold her back just because I'm not ready to be alone.

"I get it. Dont worry about me I'll be fine. I'll give the teachers hell for the both of us. You go be a bad ass and kick some wolfy tail at that school. Just promise to take it easy on me when you catch me out pass my curfew ok."

We both laugh at that. We both know shes going to be the leader one day and I'll probably give her a run for her money but for now we will enjoy our friendship while we can.
