Bishop
It's not even 10 in the morning and she's f*****g again. Maybe I should have just taken one for the team and just f****d her last night. Aries has been taken the bulk of the pain just so I can get through this and continue working without passing out. “Bishop we need to break the bond soon I can't keep going through this” Aries said. I can see him in my mind curled into a ball his jet-black fur wet and sticky clinging to his body, The pain rippling through his body. I have never seen Aries in this state. Just looking at my wolf has me furious with anna. “Ok Aries we will as soon as we get back to the pack.” It’s been Aries and I ever since I first shifted at 10, I would do anything for him.
Flashback
I had been severely sick for about a week before I first shifted. The only one to really notice was our old omega Mrs. B. She would bring me soup and change my sweat stained sheets. I had a huge test coming up and took it upon myself to go to the library to study since Ej and Chad had been staying up being loud and playing video games until 3am in the adjoining room. I was in the library for only an hour when a skull splitting migraine came on. It was Mrs. B who found me curled on the floor crying and whimpering holding my head. She told me what was happening, it was she who rushed me out of the library and through the packhouse to the clearing just behind the training field. It was there Aries made his appearance. His first words were demanding that I give him control over my body so he could shift. I was scared shitless and did as I was told. The pain was excruciating every bone in my body breaking and rearranging. When it was all said and done Aries stood over 7’ tall with jet black fur demon red eyes. Towering over Mrs. B. he nudged her with his snout thanking her for helping his human then ran off into the forest. We ran all night and most of the morning until it was time for school. Aries let me take control back but made me promise not to tell a soul of our shifting that we were special, and I would realize just how special when I was older. I didn’t mind keeping the promise cause really who would I tell. My parents who ignored me most the time, Ej who tried his best to bully me, or my nonexistent friends. I found Mrs. B waiting in the clearing for with clothes and my backpack. I told her what Aries had said and she just smiled. Her and I kept that secret between us until the day she died. I faked shifted at 16 like Ej and every other wolf in our pack even though I had had Aries for 6 years by then. Everyone was surprised at how well I handled the shift. End of flashback
3 hours later and I am finally done in my condo while Aries has retreated to the recess of my mind to heal after this morning. Once I reject Anna, I need to make plans to leave the pack at least temporarily. I cannot stay there and act like things are OK I need to focus on me and Aries and our mental health our bond as man and wolf. I guess I can go up to Vermont and hang with Thomas for a while. There's also been an alpha by the name of CJ Romero in New Mexico who has been asking for help for security updates to their pack lands and business. That alone could have me gone from Snow Mountain pack and Anna for at least half a year. With a clear plan in place, I start to make the necessary calls I need to get my life back in order. 8pm arrives and here I am sitting across from Thomas with a plate of yellow rice and beans, steak with caramelized onions and fried plantains.
“So, what's been new with you bishop? Still having problems with Anna.” “Yes, just this morning to be exact.” “Damn man I can't believe she's doing that s**t and acting like you don't know. Like wtf man.” “Well, I am done, me and Aries are done when I get back to Snow Mountain, we'll be rejecting her ass. I wanted proof, I wanted to know who she was f*****g. But Aries can't take too much more of the betrayal so I'm out. I figured I can head up to Vermont for a week or so after the initial rejection just to get my feet back under me if that's OK with you and Josh. Then I decided to take the job in New Mexico with Alpha Romero.” “That's all good with us. You know Josh considers you a brother from another mother. Plus, I have never been to New Mexico. I might travel with you.” “I would love the company plus I heard the alpha is a real asshole and doesn't like outsiders. They haven't even been to any alpha summits since taking over 2yrs ago or so the rumors say.”
