~Chapter Nine~
Jake
It's been two days... And Nathan hasn't shown any sign of waking.
My stomach growled loudly as I stayed at his side. I haven't accepted any food, water, or sleep ever since I brought him home.
My mom took the responsibility of bandaging up and treating Nathan. He hasn't made any noise besides his labored breathing. His eyelids twitch every now and then, but I don't ever see another sign that he's awake, or here.
I fear the worst as our time is dwindling down. Addison is trying to cover for us to her best ability, but soon she'll run out of excuses, and Nathan won't be with me...
"Jake... You must eat... You're hurting yourself," my mom's soft voice broke my train of thought. I looked at her as she was holding a tray of food and water. "Please..." I just shook my head. That wasn't fair. Nathan couldn't eat or drink... So I won't either until he does. I heard a small sigh as she set the tray down and left the room once again.
Tears started filling my eyes as I looked over his battered body. Who knew how much damage Aaron had done...? I gently placed my hand over Nathan's and felt his pulse. It was slow, but he was still there.
"Nathan..." I barely whispered. "I'm so sorry..." I broke my mom's rule and crawled onto the bed with him, gently holding his limp body. "Please.." I gasped out softly. "Why couldn't it have been me..?" I pressed my lips to his temple, a few tears slipping down my cheeks. My wolf was whining in pain, begging me to do something to help.
But I couldn't do anything.
"Nathan... Nathan, please... I wanna see your eyes again..." My hands started shaking. "Please, Nathan... Wake up... Show them you're stronger than they are and wake up..." I couldn't help but cry harder.

My Nathan... My soul mate... My life...
"Dammit, Nathan, wake up!" I yelled, watching his face. Still nothing... Blank. Emotionless. Not my Nathan...
Not my Nathan...
When I finally had him... Right when he finally learned that I actually loved him... Some assholes had to ruin it.
I looked at Nathan's face again, and swallowed hard. "Nathan... I'm begging you..." I pulled him close and buried my face into his neck. "Wake up.."
We sat there for a while. I kept talking, trying to get Nathan to do something. Anything. I closed my eyes and listened to his heart.
I only had a string of hope left when I heard a whimper. I abruptly pulled back to look at Nathan. He whimpered again, and his eyelids opened a tiny bit. I watched his Adam's apple bob as he swallowed.
"J-J..." He whispered. My heart skipped a beat.
"Yeah... Yeah, Nathan... It's me..." I whispered, gently brushing hair from his forehead. He smiled weakly and a shaky hand reached up and touched my cheek.
"I-I..." He paused. "I'm... So so-sorry.."

Addison
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Greene, but Nathan still wants to stay with me..." I lied, my fingers twirling my hair around them.
"Are you sure, Addison?" His poor mother sounded so sad. "He's never been away for so long without telling me..."
"I know, but... He just wants to help me with my homework.."
"Oh, Addison... You and your schoolwork..." She paused. "Just have him call me later..."
"Of course, Mrs. Greene... Thank you!" And I hung up. Why me?! I've been lying non-stop to so many people! But it's for Nathan... My best friend... My gay brotha!
He hasn't woken up for two days... And only because he likes the same gender! My Daddy had to defend me in court yesterday...

*Flashback*
"Hey, Aaron!" I screamed, my shoes clicking against the sidewalk. I saw his smug face as he turned and grinned at me.
"Adi baby!" He got closer to me and wrapped an arm around my waist. He leaned in to kiss my cheek, but I shoved him away.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" People who were walking by stopped and stared. "You beat up my best friend!!!" Aaron paused.
"Oh, you mean.. The chubby blondey who happens to be gay?" He smirked. My heart ached. I don't even know what happened, but I felt my hand collide with something, and it made a loud SMACK. I opened my eyes and saw a red mark start forming on Aaron's cheek. He laughed lightly in disbelief.
"Whoa, Adi.." Aaron reached out to touch me again.
"DON'T TOUCH ME!!!!!!!" I screamed and pulled out the pepper spray Daddy gave me and sprayed it all in Aaron's eyes. He yowled and tried to cover his face, but that only made me angrier. "HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO HIM?!" I took a step back before throwing a fist into his face. I watched him as he stumbled back.
"A-Addison, I---" He stammered, gently touching his cheek.
"I THOUGHT YOU CARED ABOUT ME!!!!!" I stumbled a bit as I took off my heels and chucked them at him.
"I-I do, Addison---!"
"NO YOU DON'T!!!!!!" All of a sudden, I had thrown myself at him and started hitting and slapping and kicking. He deserved it... He hurt Nathan...
Bystanders watched for a while before trying to intervene. Many tried to pull me off of Aaron, but I just had this instinct... To protect... He harmed Nathan!
Eventually, I was yanked off and held by two men. Police. I wasn't sorry. I watched as a few helped Aaron up, and talked to him. My Daddy was called, but he didn’t sound angry..
*End of Flashback*
We went into a trial for assault, but my Daddy was on my side the entire time. He was used to me defending Nathan's back, and he always supported me when it dealt with Nathan. I should've been suspended about seven times now, but my Daddy was able to change their minds. Nathan was my brother from a different mother! I HAD to protect him!
I laid my head down on my desk and tried to think. I was running out of lies to use for Nathan's absence, and parents would find out.
And the one who'd be most hurt, would be Nathan's mom.
She knew he'd have trouble, and so she tries to treat him as nice as possible... But it's hard to look at her face when she hears about her baby boy being beaten or made fun of. It makes your heart sink...
My phone vibrated next to my foot. Someone was trying to call me. I reached over and picked it up, putting it on speaker as I answered. "Mrs. Greene, please... I'm at work..."
"Nice job, Adi. It seems as if you haven't run out of lies yet."
"Jake?"
"Yes! Addison... You won't believe me when I say this..." My stomach dropped.
"What?! What's going on?!" I cried out, tears coming to my eyes. He hasn't died, has he?
"He woke up, Adi... And he's talking and eating..." A tear slipped down my cheek. He was okay... My best friend was okay...
"I'll be in over in a bit."

The Pack
'When you’re in hell, only demons can save you...' For a thousand suns humanity has lived on this world, a world of advanced knowledge and medieval ways, a world whose history has been lost in a fog of tales and fragments of ancient learning. Upon this planet a young man is betrayed and sold by those he called family. Lost and alone, he discovers a weapon more powerful than anything he could imagine. Now, holding the power to level entire cities, he may be the last hope for a humanity on the edge of extinction. But the howl of the pack has changed, and what was once a sound of comfort and protection brings only terror as it echoes across the mountains. When high technology meets low society, when the natural clashes with the artificial, when the very world itself seems bent on eradicating humankind, those caught in the middle must choose, though every choice brings with it its own loss. A choice between humanity, and the pack. (Download as an eBook - choose your own price - at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1150699)
8 501The King (Kralyat)
Balhkara – a kingdom once known for its glory and beauty before corruption and exploitation left its people gobbled up by hatred and greed. Twenty years ago, that kingdom lost its last King and since then it had been slowly sinking in an endless pit of abyss. Even though no one knows how the King died and who was responsible for the royal family’s demise – story has it that the late King was betrayed by someone close. One version of the story has it that his second wife was a spy and killed him, then burned his children during the infamous “Palace Accident”. Another version has it that a maid was jealous of the Queen and poisoned the whole family. With time passing, the story twisted further and blurred in with people’s imagination to the point that no one truly remembers the initial version. Interesting enough, one day three hunters from Balhkara receive a mysterious invitation for a private mission to look for a missing person. Upon meeting the employer, they learn that the Prince of Balhkara is still alive. Will they manage to find the Prince? Will that Prince, however, return to his rightful place and restore the glory of Balhkara? A story full with adventures, moral dilemmas that creates an allegory of today’s world and its state.
