Chapter 0142
I get about five feet from his door when a hand grabs my wrist. I instinctively twist and take a
defensive stance ready for an attack
“Relax! It’s just me. Sierra whisper yells, dodging my fist as it comes flying at her face. ‘Il told the
guys you would show up here, they didn’t believe me. They are all still camped at your house trying
to figure out how to get you to come out and reason with you.
I go to open my mouth to argue, but she puts her whole hand on my mouth.
“Stop! I don’t want to hear it and I’m not here to fight. I am not your enemy and no matter how stupid
the guys are, neither are they. That’s all I am going to say about it now though. You are not going to
avoid me and I will not force you to be around the guys, cause whatever this is,” she gestures at all
of me, It’s bigger than any of us thought. Your trauma runs deep and you are the only person who
can get yourself past that since you won’t let anyone in that far. Now, it’s Monday and we have
about eight minutes before the bell will ring for second period. I already went to the packhouse and
grabbed your stuff and to your locker and got everything you usually have for all classes before
lunch. I talked to the school counselor and I have been moved into all of your classes, that way
neither of us are alone per Luna Ava’s request. The guys might catch on by then, so I will switch
everything out for you and we can make a better plan for tomorrow, cause this hiding sh*t isn ‘t
going to fly past today.” With that she handed me my overly stuffed backpack and started to walk
off.
“Sierra, Pm not going to come between you and the guys, I won’t make you choose. But I just
can’t…”
“Stop. I told you Pm not talking about them today. You are my concern right now. I had to watch
your basically dead body, covered in blood, being carried out of the basement. I watched Gamma
Brett run with you to the pack hospital, barely breathing. I can’t feel your emotions like Oliver and
apparently the twins, I don’t know where your mind is at, but that was the scariest f*cking thing I
have ever had to go through. And we do care, I care, but I can’t help if you keep things from me. I
didn’t realize getting out of here was life or death for you, but that’s how bad it is, isn’t it? You will die
if you don’t get out of here.” Tears are rolling down her cheeks. I just step up to her and pull her in
for a hug. This is what I didn’t want, my needs are affecting others. This is wthy I feel stuck Like her,
I’m not going to think about it though. We are here, right now, and she is on my side, apparently, no
matter what I do or say.
We both took a big breath in and sighed out, silently agreeing to just get through today. We walked
off to second period and she filled me in on how long I was in the hospital, which was only
overnight.
We made it through the day uneventfully, the guys never showed up. She even helped me come up
with a reasonable excuse for missing the first class. I was at the pack hospital for a training injury.
Mostly the truth so I don’t feel bad about the lie and it could be verified by Doc. T. She then helped
me sneak food into my room so I don’t have to leave, but only on the promise that I wouldn’t shut
her out and I would meet her for breakfast at the diner tomorrow. She only stayed for a little while
after that. Sam started blowing up her phone and I kept reminding her that I wasn’t going to come
between her friendships with the guys even though mine were imploding around
“What do you want me to say to them? You know they are going to smell you on me and ask
questions.”
“Just tell them that you were right and I did show up at school. You understand me better than they
do.” I shrug. She just rolls her eyes, but doesn’t argue either.
“DO I really have to go out the window?”
“I don ‘t want them to know I can come and go even if they are playing at being guards at my door.
They can’t Imow you were here. So yes, out the window it is.”
I sat on my bed in the quiet and got the little homework I had left done and then laid down to read a
book in the silence of my childhood bedroom.
