Chapter 8 

AMELIA’S P.O.V 

As I drove, all I could think about or even feel was the pain from the betrayal my family had just dealt to me. I tried to push the thoughts out of my head but it swarmed my every thought and pore. It still felt unbelievable to think that Brittany and Blake could have done that to me. 

I knew leaving the pack was a hasty decision and I should have thought about it more but in that moment when father offered it to me; I just wanted to get away from them and everything that had happened. A new pack seemed like the perfect break and exactly what I needed. It would give me enough time to heal from the betrayal before going back home. 

As I thought about my family, I couldn’t help but think about the warning that Blake had given me. I still don’t know why he warned me or what he was trying to warn me about. He just said I wasn’t safe and I wonder what he meant by that. Was that his own way of saying that he still cared about me? Or was that his own twisted way of looking after me after what he had done? “Darn you Blake,” I muttered, “You’re a real asshole.” I realized how crazy I must look to be talking to myself in the car so I instantly went silent. 

I pushed the thoughts out of my mind and shelved it under not important. The most unsafe place for me right now is that pack because I will be the object of ridicule and hate. I did the right thing by leaving. 

I drove in silence when suddenly I started to hear the chirping of birds above my car. I hoped I would out drive them but it was like they kept on following me. The chirping got louder and I heard one land on the roof. Another one landed on my side mirror but flew away and landed on the roof with its companion. 

I didn’t mind them but I hoped they wouldn’t pee or poop on the car because it would be a nightmare to get out and father would be so mad at me. A bird once pooped on him and I couldn’t wash it out of his shirt so he had to burn it. I can only imagine how bad it would be on a 

car. 

The forest seemed to get quieter the more I drove and the only sound was the birds. I was grateful because the eerie silence was starting to scare me. I wondered if I should break off a piece of bread for them when I heard the snapping of twigs behind me. 

I glanced into my mirrors but I couldn’t see anything. I reached into the glove compartment and saw a loaf of bread. I broke it into half and shoved a large piece into my mouth then wound down my window and held out a little piece in my hand. 

When nothing happened, I was about to pull my hand away but then a bird landed in my palm and took the piece. 

“You’re so pretty,” I breathed as I took in the medium sized black bird. “I wonder what type bird you are.”

My loneliness must have been worse than I anticipated because that can be the only reasc am communicating with a bird like it understands me.

I broke off another piece and handed it to the bird. Its large beady eyes assessed me and it pecked my hand softly then flew back to the roof. I smiled to myself because I have never touched a bird before and I wanted to do it again. 

I knew I should be driving but I figured that I deserved a little break. I was already out of my pack and I know the worst I will encounter might be a bear or a wild animal but most of them generally avoid us because they can sense that we are prey. 

I was feeding the birds and eating when I heard another twig snap. The bird that was in my hand flew to the roof immediately and this time I wound up my window and continued driving. 

I looked through my mirrors and even glanced at the back hoping to catch a glimpse of whatever animal it was but I still didn’t see anything. I was about to chalk it off as my imagination when I saw a large figure collide with my windshield. At first I thought it was a bear but when I saw the snarling teeth, I realized it was a werewolf. 

It growled at me and it took all my willpower not to scream. I know I should have moved or tried to shake the wolf off by speeding up with the car but I was frozen in shock. The wolf had saliva dripping from the sides of its mouth and the eyes were black leading me to realize that it wasn’t a 

rogue. 

Rogues have red eyes and are usually more feral but this wolf looked at me with intelligence- almost like it had looked for me. It smashed its paw into the windshield and I knew it wanted to kill me. 

My survival instincts kicked in and I gripped the steering wheel hard and hit the accelerator. I veered a sharp right not caring where I was going and the sudden change in speed and direction threw the wolf off the bumper of my car. 

It snarled in pain and I wasted no time before I hit the gas and started moving forward. Blake’s warning shot in my head and I knew that this was probably what he was warning me about. I knew the only person who would want me dead was my sister. She never liked me but I would have never guessed that Brittany would stoop low enough to send wolves after me to kill me. 

Her second betrayal cut through me harder than the first but I knew I couldn’t spend much time thinking about it because I could hear the tell tale sign of running behind me. I looked through my mirror and saw not one but three wolves chasing after my car. 

In that moment, I didn’t care about safety, I just hit the gas and the car was moving faster than I had ever driven in my life. It was hard to control it at this speed and I kept bumping into trees and flying over rocks but I didn’t care. I was determined not to die and I was willing to do anything to do so. 

I 

got to a fork in the forest and I knew the left part led to the pack that father was sending me to. I wondered if they had told the people in that pack to kill me on sight too. I knew it would be a major risk to go there so I turned right towards the Dark Fangs pack. 

I haven’t heard much about it because the people mainly live in secrecy and solitude but I know that their Alpha is rumored to be an atrocious monster. Rumors say that he slaughtered 1. entire family so that he could take the position.

I didn’t know what waited for me there but I would take my chances at the hand of that monster than at the hands of my family. They have already tried to kill me once and who is to say that they won’t try it again.I also chose it because I knew that anyone with half a mind wouldn’t dare to go into it. 

I was still a little far from the pack but I saw the wolves look at each other in confusion as I took this path. That solidified my thoughts that Brittany and my father sent them because they were expecting me to go the other way. 

Their confusion was brief because they soon started chasing me again. As I drove through the unfamiliar roads I realized that I didn’t actually know the way to the Dark Fangs pack. Almost no one did because of how secretive they were. I knew my gas wouldn’t last forever and I hoped by some miracle I would find the pack before that happened. 

While I was worrying, I saw a bird flying in front of my car and it looked back almost as if it was watching me then it took a sharp right. I don’t know whether it was desperation or just pure stupidity but I found myself following that bird.
