P.O.V. Braelyn

As time went by I tried not to think of him but my mind and thoughts would drift back towards him. I mustered up all my will to walk and began to go to my friend's bar.

The only place right now that I know that I can go to someone and confide in them. As I walked into the bar I searched the bar for my friend until I saw her and flagged her down.

" hey girl how have you been. Haven't seen you here in a while, so what drama do you have for me today."

as she spoke I didn't know what to tell her. Silence took over me and that's when she got the memo.

"you think we can take it to the back."

She nodded her head and we went to the back as usual.

"so you gonna tell me or not?"

"sandy there's a lot of things I want to tell you but right now ill tell you this.

" I and Tristen broke up. something happened and I just don't know how to explain it but it's like when it happened a switch turned on and he had to make a decision."

I paced back and forth while she was sitting down looking at me like I was some artifact on a wall she didn't speak until I said the last sentence it was like she had something to say and then she spoke.

"wait y'all broke up, but y'all are high school sweethearts right. Been dating since the eighth-grade year and y'all broke up out of nowhere. What the f***k. What happened is my question?" I stared at her and sighed

"Actually, we dated seventh-grade summer and I'm not the right girl for him. Is what he kinda said to me so pretty much I was just an f*ck buddy to him ."

She laughed and I mean laughed hard to were tears came out and I frowned and sat down. She noticed and spoke

"Look I don't know what his type is but he shouldn't have let you on..." I gave her one of my stares.

"that's what I told him when he wanted to break up with me." as I was telling her the news I notice how she reacted to everything and how uncomfortable she is.

Now I'm wondering why is that.

" hey, sandy is there something your not telling me. Are you hiding something or someone?"

I didn't have to hit or scream my voice said it all everyone knew me as the happy bubbly girl but when my calm low voice comes out I'm a different person and if I don't get an answer then things do happen.

"what are you hiding. And don't say what do you mean cause I know your faces."

And that's when she told me

"He's here in this building. I'm sorry I didn't know y'all had broken up, please" she had put more gasoline to the fire and it made it worse.

"Where?" I didn't have time to play games I just need to confront him and ask why if he still didn't want me ok but I just want answers.

" where is he?" as soon as she told me I was out and heading to the room but quickly I was stopped.

"what"

"I wouldn't go in there if I were you. His uncle is in town he can have you killed and they wouldn't even know it was him. Don't go in there. Wait till he comes out."

I just looked at sandy and smiled and went back into the room. I remember Tristen talking about his uncle about how bad he was it he's in town why is Tristen talking to him.

as time went by I left and went to the bar to drink a beer but only had one sip because I saw him with four bottles of vodka and he saw me, and all I knew was that he was walking out the front door away from me. So I ran after him but he was already close to his car so I went to my car and followed. I needed to talk to him And tell him I wasn't scared of what happened. and I needed to tell him fast.

As I followed him I noticed where we were going.to the Cliff, that's where we always used to go on dates so I made sure he didn't notice I was following him, and as time went by I finally found him by the Cliff with three empty bottles, and one-half empty. walking towards him he didn't even notice me until I said his name

" Tristen" he didn't answer me he avoided me like the moment he rejected me. "Tristen" Again I say his name and this time he answered me with hatred in his eyes.

" what do you want? tell me. why did you come all the way over here? why did you follow me?"

I could see it on his face. The hatred, pity, sadness, it's like he didn't love me anymore But I can't take it anymore I have to tell him how I feel, how he's hurting me inside, how he's breaking me inside and out.

" why did you reject me. I love you. don't you get it. I always Hope you know I wasn't afraid. I hope you know I can understand. please talk to me. why aren't you listening? Tristen? Tristen?! look at me! "

he wanted me to answer his questions so I answered but when I answer him it seemed that I just mumbled a bunch of crap well not a bunch of crap but I told him everything I told him why he rejected me I told him I loved him and I told him why he didn't understand me but he wasn't looking at me and he didn't answer me he just kept looking forward and he kept drinking his vodka till the bottle was done.

"Alright fine, you want to know the real reason since you can't take short answers, I followed you because I'm not scared, and I hope you get that through your thick head. Another reason you told me you love me and I said it back and I meant it. We were gonna grow old together. What happened to that? There is a lot of reason but I just want to know the truth like every girl or guy in the books, tell me why. Why reject me if you knew I believed in things that are not in our world."

I couldn't hold it anymore a traitor fell from my eye and I know he has me now.

"Do you want to know what your problem is, you were never good enough for me, yeah that's what it was so why don't you just leave?"

"you don't mean that. you told me that you love me. and you told me that you were gonna marry me. you told me were going to be happy together. what happened to that? do you even love me? what changed. is it because I'm human..."

I didn't get to finish my sentence because the next thing I knew he had his hand around my neck with his nails growing and his other hand on my waist and let me tell you this the pain was excruciating and all you could hear was my screaming but nobody was around it was just me and him nobody can see, nobody could hear him I was alone and I was afraid. all I could do was cry I couldn't scream I couldn't do anything if I screamed he would squeeze my neck harder.

"do you wanna keep squirming keep on squirming just going to make it worse. I was just leading you on I just needed a good sex partner and you were there. B!tch you never seemed to figure it out, I only used you didn't you notice. Yeah, we may have gone on dates and other things to show we are a couple but when I called you up for sex you were always there weren't you."

I squirmed I couldn't take it anymore I started choking on my blood I told him I couldn't breathe he just smirked and squeeze even harder, and then I felt an excruciating pain in my neck which made me scream my lungs out even though I chocked on my own blood. I looked down and saw Tristen had his mouth in my neck. I was ready to give up and let him take me but someone grabbed onto his hands and pulled him off of me. I felt myself getting weaker and weaker and weaker. until I collapsed on to the floor soaked in my blood drowning in Black oblivion. But that soon ended because once I opened my eyes I was in a room but I didn't see nobody all I saw was white everywhere. I don't see any furniture I didn't see any doors, nothing and I have a white dress on which has two slits on both legs which makes me feel and look like a goddess but I don't have any shoes on. Which is wierd.

It's beautiful but where am I.

" you're in my home child. Welcome back home. it's been a long time since I've seen you, you've grown up."

I turn around but as soon as I turned around no one there and so I turn around again and there was a beautiful lady standing in front of me she also is wearing a white dress but more elegantly designed, After taking her in I spoke to her.

" I'm sorry but who are you and am I dead?"

she laughed then she looked at me for a long time to be exact I became uncomfortable so I said it again.

"Excuse me I'm not trying to be rude but I really need to know am I dead or did I just wake up."

She sighed but she gave me my answer anyway.

"I am the moon goddess and your mother and you're not dead you're just in a coma right now and We have a lot to talk about."

As she told me this I felt dizzy. And the next thing I knew was that I fell to the floor and I was out but when I came to I was in a little house deep in the woods.

"Hello? Is anyone here." I walked around the house but saw no one an then I heard a door open and close.

I stopped walking, scared that something was inside this house. Footsteps could be heard and my heavy breathing, so I did the only thing that came to mind I went to the next room and hid.

"child come out I won't hurt you I just thought this scenery would be comfortable."

As I heard the mood goddess voice I started to feel calm. "but I don't live in a cabin." her response kept me on guard

"I know you grew up on a big land so maybe a little forest would be ok, but maybe going back to how it was before."

"NO! It's ok it's just I'm half dead and I'm talking to the one person I read in a book that is very important. What could possibly go wrong."

As we talked and she told me I'm mated to a wolf and that it's my decision if I want to stay with him since he rejected me. She also told me that I'm her daughter she gave me to my other parents to protect me from evil darkness that still roams the supernatural world. This means I'm Princess, gonna be queen, and gonna be moon goddess soon. That is a lot to take in. The clock struck at 4:30 pm it was time for me to go back she told me small details and that I would find out more when I wake up.

There is also one other thing time here is different so I've been in here a day I don't know how long I actually been in a coma though.

"It's time to wake up. Wake up"

The next thing I knew was seeing a bright light and it hurt like hell.
