The Alpha's Broken Heart

Realistically impossible~Nefeli~Earth

' Nefeli! where are you?! ' I hear her voice desperately shouting.

'Mom? I'm scared ' I say trembling in the closet. The door to the closet opens to reveal my mother, trying to see me. I slip out, so she can see me.

' oh my child' she says softly. I run and hug her tight, barely holding her because of her protruding belly.

' My gem, I have to leave and I might never return, but please continue fighting no matter where you end up. This is a promise I want you to make. You protect, love and live a full life, for me and Angel. ' she says rubbing her belly in soothing circles. She turns to look at me, with hope and love so overwhelming it was radiating into me. I nod and she grabs my cheeks and kisses them urgently.

' I love you Mommy, see you later Angel and I love you too. ' I say as she gets up backing away from me. The glow in her eyes slightly dimming when I mentioned us meeting again.

' No matter what don't make a sound and don't leave here. Whatever you hear is just the bad guys, okay. Non of us will get hurt. ' she gently pushes me inside the closet and closes the door. Then it's eeriely quite.

Silence...

I try to calm down and start singing my Mom's favorite song:

"In a world full of sin,

full of sorrow and death

the only place you should be

is in ...

I hear a blood curling scream, that sounded like my Moms. ' None of us will get hurt. '

" She said she and Angel will be okay so it's just the bad guys trying to get me out of my hiding place. " I whisper to myself.

After what felt like an hour, I opened the door slowly and ran out to look for my Mom. I saw a crowd outside the window and I jumped out and walked quietly until I was sure they were my people. I ran to the gathering crowd and tore through the people heading straight for the centre. I could already imagine my Mom standing on the body of the imposter, head in hand and fist raised.

But as I reach the centre, I see the lifeless bodies of my mother and my almost sister, Mom's eyes wide staring at me. Frozen and numb, I hear a long blood curling scream that I later discovered was coming from me. The people my friends and even my instructor looked at me with looks of pity and resent, their eyes showing their thoughts clear as day.

' Momma is gone... and it's all your fault. '

I wake up with a jump rather than a scream, (only because I'm quite used to these memories) looking around the room I also notice we are back at the pack house, 'when did we get back?' I thought. I move to wake up but find someone heavy partially on me. I look up to see Nate, ' Aww he's snoring! ' Calista says lightly in my head. I try to wake him by tickling him, but he's completely immune. I kiss his face and he stirs and faces away from me. I laugh and get up wincing abit at my current soreness. Last night replays in my head and I feel myself blush.

I walk into the shower getting ready for school, which apparently is everyday except Saturday and Sunday.

As I wear my shirt, or rather his shirt, he walks into the bathroom tiredly.

"Morning sunshine!" I say happy to see him. He just makes incoherent noises at me, kisses my cheek and heads into the shower.

I laugh at him and grab his shorts, pulling them on. I wear the pair of shoes his mom gave me and walk out of the bathroom in my usual tom boyish wear, since I refused let him spend money buying clothes I would barely wear, because I wear and like his clothes better.

Walking down I see a familiar site. Xavier and Amara eating each other. I clear my throat and they jump apart, trying to look innocent. Xavier sniffs the air, turns to look at me then behind me and gets up.

" My man! Congrats! I didn't expect you to hit first but I'm not complaining." Xavier says giving Nate a pat on the back. I roll my eyes and head towards the fridge. I open it and grab some milk.

They have this thing called cereal that is filling and conveniently easy to make. I make two bowls and hand one to Nate. After I while of comfortable small talk Xavier looks at his watch.

" 07:47, we should probably start off." Xavier says grabbing Amara's hand.

Nate and I get up and head to school.

" Miss Nefeli" I turn to see Mrs. Brown walking towards my locker.

" Yes, ma'am?" I say softly making her smile at me. She hands me a paper.

" You will need to read these books for the upcoming tests, I would advise you head there now because the library is quite vast." she says and turns to walk away after I nod in acknowledgement.

I walk into the library but as I enter I smell what I can only call rotting wet dog. A bit disoriented by the smell, I pause and rethink entering the room. After a minute of debate, I walk in and nod towards the librarian who waves at me with a smile.

' She doesn't seem to be bothered by the smell, but I still think we should leave...' the unknown voice making an appearance again. I ignore her and rush to find the books in the back. Honestly, I would have asked the librarian but she seems engrossed in the old looking book she's reading.

As I approach the last shelf containing books of literature, I notice the smell getting stronger. I walk in calculating steps and grab my pocket knife - which I begged Nate to get me for situations like these -. and proceeded.

I turn the corner but see no one. I know better because it's always best to use this tactic for an easy kill. I heighten my senses and start searching for my book pretending to be unaware of the loud breathing being sneaking up behind me. As she gets close I turn and throw her to the wall, catching her off guard.

" What do you want, rogue?" I asked her after her eyes glowed like a werewolf. She growled at me, as if I would step back frightened. I tighten my grip on her neck and wrists making her whimper in pain. ' Pathetic' Calista snarls in my head. By now my eyes are glowing and anger is falling off me in waves.

" I-I can't breathe..." she says trying miserably to fight against my restraints. I loosen my hold on her neck and she gasps for air before immediately talking out of fear.

" I am here to warn you, t-to stay away from N-Nate... I was supposed to kill you if I had the chance." she says with determination set on her face. I let out a chilling laugh and watch her resolve slip away. She pales as I get in her face.

"And why would I do that?" I say condescently. She smirks before giggling, taking my offguard.

" I wasn't asking, princess. If you don't you can say goodbye to your precious Amara, I already have her and everybody restrained, waiting upon you decision-" I cut her off by breaking her neck, I drop her limp body and reach for my knife and paper I left on the shelf. She was boring me and trying to waste my time, see it before and done all that.

I run out the library, only to be slapped in the face with the same disgusting smell but stronger and meaner making me pale abit.

Rogues, a whole lot of them...
