Chapter 16 - My monster

Tears start to trickle down her eyes. She doesn't move or try to hide it.

She just sits there looking at me.

I raise my fingers to her face to wipe the tears and she let's me.

I slide a finger under her eyes, wiping off the moisture.

"I'm not worth your tears" I say patting her hair.

I often wonder what is going through her mind. She seldom speaks or show emotion, so it is hard to tell what she is thinking.

"What's going through your mind?" I ask, holding her face in my hands.

"You're a monster" she blurts out

Another blow to my gut. I withdraw my hand from her face and look down at the floor of the car in shame.

"But you're my monster" she concludes.

I look up at her as the tears I have been trying to suppress come cascading down my face and I don't care.

She reaches out and hugs me kissing me on the top of my head.

I rest my head on her shoulders inhaling her sweet scent.

SAVANNAH

I run my hair through his thick hair wondering if I didn't just make a mistake.

A part of me wants to push him away and run as far and as fast as I can, but that part is very small.

Andre Zacharys friend knocks on the window startling us.

Zachary sits up and rolls the window down.

With one hand on the roof of the car, Andre bends down until his face is level with the car window.

"Mr Smith noticed his favourite student is absent"

He says looking at me.

I avoid his gaze looking ahead, why does it suddenly feel hot in here?

"We'll be right there" Zachary replies for me.

Andre does not move away instantly, he stays bent with his face almost poking into the car. His eyes are locked on Zacharys and I can swear they are somehow communicating.

He lifts himself up suddenly and struts away displeased.

"What are you thinking?" Zachary asks bringing me back to him.

"Nothing" I answer shrugging for more emphasis.

He takes my hand in his squeezing it gently.

It feels weird, foreign but I like it, I sigh out.

"Let's go in" he says.

ZACHARY

"That is never going to happen. I will not let you destroy everything I and my fathers before me have built" My father yells pointing at me frantically

"I have made my choice father, I'm sorry" I say humbly with bowed head but firmly enough to make it clear that I wasn't going to be swayed from my decision.

My father with blood shot eyes piercing into me slumps down on his chair heavily,

"If only your sister was still alive" He says coldly.

I stand there for a moment longer and then turn towards the door and leave.

My Sister was the golden child while she was alive, everyone loved her and my parents adored her.

Although she was far from perfect, she knew how to keep the less desirable parts of her hidden. She and I didn't always get along, I hated her hypocrisy and the fact that she had everyone else fooled.

I walk out of the pack house and get into my car, I can feel my wolf's excitement at the prospect of meeting its mate.

I don't that she is human, I am going to prove everyone wrong and show them that She is strong enough to be My Luna.
