Welcome Home Mate

ROXIE

I woke up early and got myself ready. I wanted to get a run-in before I went to the packhouse to find out the details of the fight.

I left my Uncle's house and went into the forest to run. Usually, I would run around the pack grounds, but since no one knew I was back, I wanted to wait until I was ready to go there; also, I wanted to go with my Uncle and Dad.

I placed my earphones on and ran.

My mind was going everywhere, and it was hard to concentrate on anything, even the fight.

Bex was still asleep, but she had some nightmare that made her move more in my head.

I ran as far as possible but ended up by the river clearing. I stopped and sat on a fallen log by the side of the water's edge.

I stared out and let the stillness around me take over. I needed to have a clear mind if I was to fight, but everything with Lex came flooding back hard.
