So he has a dark past. He's definitely coming off as that brooding type, the type that most girls swoon over. Well I hate the mystery guy. Always so damn depressing. He shrugs at my questions and I sigh, not even bothering to hide the roll of my eyes as I turn from him to start walking deeper into the cavern. At least I can distract myself by looking at the pretty glowing plants instead of worrying about his lack of socialization skills. I may say what I'm thinking but he doesn't talk hardly at all. How much better is that for manners? I flip back around on him when he shoots back that the pack is his family, my hackles bristling and a growl in my voice. "Well so is my pack and yet you act as if I can toss them aside like last week's garbage and go skipping off into the sunset to find out what it means to be a nasty human, the same kind that has killed my family in more ways than I want to describe. How long have you been with your pack, panther? I've been with mine for 10 years." My blue eyes flash with irritation, tail swishing as I turn back and continue walking, trying to calm my short fuse. When we reach the pool, I feel satisfaction is the look of awe on his face as he looks around. Clearly he has never been here before and he seems to find it as fascinating as I do. I take a seat by the pool, giving him space to take it all in. When he does look back over at me, I tilt my head, pricking my ears to give him my full attention. I'm actually a little surprised that he is replying since he tends to keep me in the dark most of the time but I try really hard not to show it. His last words make my ears flick back though and I look at the water, suddenly unable to meet his gaze as I grow thoughtful, a scowl on my lips. Will I regret it if I don't pursue this whole Were thing? Will I forever be questioning who I really am if I continue to live with Caesar and the coyote pack and don't try to change forms? It's definitely something to think about. I sigh softly. "You're right." I say barely above a whisper but I know he can hear me. I know he is and it still hurts a little to think that I may never see them again. A gasp is pulled from me as panic of the unknown sets in and a whimper suddenly falls from my lips as I stumble back with wide eyes. "I...I can't be here." Suddenly I turn on my haunches and take off from the cavern, disappearing through the hidden entrance and into the forest. I don't expect him to follow. I feel like my heart is breaking. Maybe I've already decided to leave them. |
