"The only thing to stop the bond from getting stronger is doing significant damage to it.”

“What kind of damage?”

“I think you know exactly what kind of damage Keenan, the worst and most unimaginable things you can think of? Do it. If the damage is bad enough, it could even kill the bond. The more you starve and neglect this bond, the more it will wither and hopefully... die. But you can’t half-ass it, Keenan, you have to be committed.”

And I WOULD be.

I once wrote a story, a brutal story

About a human girl who was destined for the alpha beast

Only he could not find her worthy

So he threw her to his wolves to feast

He'd taken everything from her

Her laugh, her love, her peace

He didn't know

That the bond was not meant for release

Your mate is a most treasured gift from the moon

and like an arrogant child

From the goddess's fury, he thought he was immune

He'd have to see her

As she rose from the ground

And finally, she grasped, that to him she was not bound

She had choices

A chance to claim the life that was stolen

Now by his hand

She could no longer be broken

All while she finds solace in the arms of his enemy, once his friend

He'd live life longing for her

Yearning for the future that could've been

But the moon's wrath he should've heeded

For with this karma

He realized he was never needed

Tame a Monster

The next day, I was hoping Daniel forgot all about asking me to sit by him at lunch. 


I couldn’t stop thinking about it all morning, the anxiety was getting to me. I wish I hadn’t said yes at all. 


They were not going to like me, I just knew it. 


I really did not want to be hated again, especially not by this school’s vast majority of female students. 


In the cafeteria, I made sure to keep my head down and walk by Daniel’s table really fast, hopefully unnoticed. 


But of course, that would be asking for a miracle. 


Not only does he spot me, but he makes a show of calling out my name in front of the entire student body, capturing the attention of everyone in the cafeteria. 


“Angeline! Almost missed us there! I saved a seat for you!” 


Some people looked at me as if I grew two heads, and to make matters worse, Daniel wound an arm around my shoulders with a huge cheerful smile on his face. He guided me to his table and introduced me to all of his friends.
