Chapter 5

~Lilliana's POV~

The beeping from my alarm clock rang loudly through my room, with a groan I lifted my hand and smacked the torture device to the floor. I turned over pulling the blanket over my head attempting to get a few more minutes of blissful sleep. Of course, the torture device had other plans, the sound resumed again five minutes later. This time I couldn't reach it from its position on the floor. Well played asshole well played.

Finally giving in to its demands, I rise from my bed like an over-dramatic zombie scene from the grave. I swing my legs over the edge of the bed reaching down to silence the clock. Stretching my arms over my head, yawning I muttered "Time for a shower."

Getting up I head to the bathroom, stepping inside. I spared a glance around the small bathroom. Gray wooden floors, a standing sink with a small rectangle mirror, and the toilet that was next to the tub/shower. Quickly shedding my clothes, I step into the tub fixing the water to the perfect temperature. Sighing I relaxed under the spray, letting the scalding water release the tension in my muscles.

It had been over three years since I left behind the Black Fallen Pack and began my life as a rogue. I finally settled down in a small town, got a part-time job, and joined the high school here. The summer had just ended, so this was my first day of school. I had arrived just in time to join in at the beginning of the semester.

With a groan, I quickly finish up by washing my hair and washing my body. One thing I seriously didn't want to do, is arrive at school late and have to explain myself.

I jump out after shutting off the water and rush to get dressed. Quickly tugging on my jeans, I topped them off with a loose and flowing tank top and my worn-down tennis shoes. Glancing at my reflection I made sure the outfit looked good on me before moving and starting to pull up my hair. My hair was still brown, but it had lighter highlights to show my bond with Kairi was strengthening.

Snatching up my bag from the floor, I sprinted out the door and downstairs. My senses picked up the amazing smell of pancakes. "Hey, Mrs. Janny!" I moved and kissed the old woman's cheek, who laughed and swatted me away. "Good morning Lilli, go sit down these are about done." She said with a chuckle. I moved into a seat at the table swiftly, my stomach already growling with the thought of being full of scrumptious pancakes.

I met Mrs. Janny when I first arrived in this town. I was a sixteen-year-old, exhausted and starving. She took pity on me and kept me well fed. Now I live with her. Remember that saying Feed a cat and they'll come back? yeah well, I came back. Mrs. Janny helped me out getting a fresh start in this town, and for that, I'll always be thankful to her.

Mrs. Janny soon placed a plate of syrup-covered pancakes, upon closer inspection I noticed little brown dots throughout the pancakes. Oh, goddess, they were chocolate chip pancakes! Without another thought I began digging in, nearly moaning in delight from the taste.

Mrs. Janny chuckled watching me in amusement. She soon glanced at the clock after I leaned back rubbing my satisfied stomach. "Alright kiddo, might want to head out before you're late." I quickly glanced at the digital clock on the wall, letting out a surprised yelp I lept from my seat, grabbed my bag, and sprinted towards the door. "Thanks for the breakfast, Mrs. Janny!" I waved bye before turning and hurrying down the concrete walkway. My feet hit the ground running, I had a total of ten minutes before I was considered late.

I jumped on my bike and took off down the street, my feet became a blur as I swiftly peddled. I made it to the school in four minutes. Nice, just got to lock the bike up and I'll have six minutes to spare. Quickly I get my chain out of my bag and chained my bike to the bike rack. I waste no time running up the stairs to the school.

Making my way through the doors, I spared a glance around the lit-up hallway. It was nearly empty, grabbing my schedule from my pocket I found out my first class was English. Alright, not too bad, after getting the room number I folded it back up and stuck it in my pocket. Quickening my pace, the hallway became a blur around me as I headed for my classroom.

Without much thought, I swung open the door in my haste. My heart dropped to the bottom of my stomach when the door bounced right back off the wall with a loud bang. The students and teacher looked over instantly. My face turned a bright red as I mentally kicked myself. So much for not drawing attention to myself. Keeping my head down I walked towards an open seat after closing the door. Just three steps away...two...one... "Lilliana Ellis right?" The teacher suddenly asked, halting me in my tracks. Shit. "Erm yes ma'am that's me," I responded nervously, she nodded leaning on her desk. "Can you come to the front to introduce yourself to the class?" She smiled her eyes observing me. No, I smiled and nodded, "Sure." Shit.

I make my way to the front of the class, my eyes looking down at the floor. Soon I forced my head up and without a break in between I rambled out, "Hello my name is Lilliana, I just moved here at the beginning of summer. I work at the diner near here, and my favorite color is green." With that, I quickly retreated to the vacant seat.

With my social suicide done and over with I zone out for the rest of the class. Finally, the bell rings, and I head to my next period. Already done with today I decided to spend the next few classes playing I spy with Kairi. Of course, she always won, I swear she can read my mind. Kairi rolled her eyes, "That's because I can dipshit." Wow, rude no need to be so catty.

The last class of the day was Gym, heading down I realized instantly upon the girls walking into the locker room. I was fucked. Once they find out about...That, then I was totally and royally fucked. Maybe there was a bathroom stall or something I could change in. Upon walking in, fear pooled in the bottom of my stomach. The bathroom doors to the stalls were gone. There was nowhere to hide, I guess I'll just have to wait till the others are out of the locker room before changing.

Dropping my bag onto the floor after picking a spot to change, I sighed and waited. After a while, the girls finally filtered out and I began to change quickly, I was a few seconds short of pulling up my pants when a scream pierced through the air. I winced at the sound, as it threatened to make my eardrums explode. My eyes flew up and over to the redhead who was staring at me in fear and disgust. She ran out and I knew the jig was up. I finished pulling up my shorts and fixing my sports bra when a few guys burst in.

The first guy whose hair was also red snarled, "Are you the creep? The one pretending to be a girl just to spy on the girls changing?!" I sighed deeply shaking my head. "As you can see, I'm a girl. I can promise these jugs are mine and are very much real." I snapped at him. He glared, glancing behind him, looking at the girl who had just screamed her head off he asked "Candy, is this the creep you were talking about?"

The girl nodded quickly, "Yes! Just look for yourself he has a dick and everything!" The guy sighed but gave a nod snapping his fingers. The two guys behind him moved into the room and towards me. My fight or flight instincts were going off the rails, Kairi was snarling lowly in my mind. "We aren't the same people we were before Lilliana, don't let them touch us," Kairi growled out. Nodding my head I moved into a fighting stance, a growl instantly leaving my mouth. "You touch me, and you die." The two guys faltered a bit but advanced anyway, as soon as one of their hands came to grab my arm my fist moved and hit him square in the nose. His head flew back and he stumbled grabbing his nose with a growl, blood already dripping onto his shirt.

It didn't take long till the others pounced, I received and dished quite a few punches. I was soon overpowered; however, because of their numbers. Growling, and thrashing I tried to get my arms free from the males. The male read head walked over and in an instant yanked the shorts I had just put on down, along with my boxers that had the suppressant to hide my dick. Everything came flopping out in its eleven-inch glory, soft might I add. The male read head's eyes grew to the size of saucers seeing it, I snarled lowly Kairi already clawing to get out to teach these pups a lesson.

The male stuttered out, "What are you?" I growled, I already knew my eyes had begun glowing their icy blue.

"A royally pissed-off weretiger."
