Patterns...

Ramsey

After Cassidy left, I stood in my room, my hands clenched beside me as anger coursed through my veins.

I was tired of her manipulative threats but at the same time, I seemed to be playing right into her traps. How did it come to this? How had my life taken a turn and was so far out of control?

A tug in my mind interrupted my thoughts. It was Lenny, my Beta trying to reach me through our mindlink.

"What is it, Lenny?" I asked dryly.

"The Elders are in the meeting hall seeking an audience with you. They say it's urgent."

"Seriously?" I groaned inwardly, rubbing the back of my neck as I closed my eyes, trying to gather my frayed emotions.

I've been hoping I would have a moment of peace today of all days but peace seemed to be an impossible word in my world.

"What do they want to see me for?" I replied, not bothering to hide my annoyance.
