PURPLE WORLD by E.S. (i am reading a book TXT) 📖

I believe it was the brother, he was filled with anger and his eyes were blazing. I lead him outside. The forest. I kept running and running and soon he was out of sight. It would be a game of hide and seek. I got to higher ground, I was definitely safer than my opponent. That’s when I heard a crack, and another, then another. I scanned the forest. No one. I felt some thing getting closer, I turned around and got ready to attack, I jumped on the wolf, then I realized who it was. Rowan. I turned, so did he. “What are you doing here? I could've killed you”, I whispered/screamed, “sorry, I thought your wolf senses would have kicked in”, he said, “get out of here, I need to do this alone”, I said. Rowan didn’t move, “I want to talk”, I tried to hold back a laugh, “right now is not the place”, I said, “we need to talk”, he said. I knew he wasn’t going to go , “shoot”, I said, Rowan looked down, “why’d you run?”, this was what it was about he was going to do this now, “Rowan go”, I said, he didn’t leave, “you shouldn’t like me, never have feelings for me”, I said to him, I lifted his chin “why?”, he asked, “we could never be together, I can not have normal feelings like that, I’m different than Atalanta and them, I can not have a relationship, I know you won’t get it, but it’s some thing you have to accept, I flirt and all that, but I never ever will have a relationship, what happened with you can’t happen again”, I let the last line slip. The was a sparkle in his eyes, “so you do like me”, I rolled my eyes “it won’t happen, I’m not allowed to love, it wasn’t some thing I was made to do”, I said. Rowan looked like his heart just broke which made me want to hold him tight and say it will always be ok, “but I love you”, he whispered, I turned away, Turned and ran. The boy that I was fighting, Anats brother, was found. I had him, I growled, a low, deep, fearsome growl, the boys ears went back in fear and I smiled. I didn’t know I was this bad. I ran down to him, I aimed for his head but he got me neck, we fought. I knew Rowan was some where, looking out for me, but I could handle it, I could defeat this wolf, this leader, Rowan would only get in the way. Soon I had finished him, with a sore neck, bitten leg, and bruised rib cage. I felt pity for him, he had lost his sister and died namelessly. The worst way to go. I turned and took him in both hands. I buried him beside the river.

Our group found each other and we went to leave, all the fighting was done, finished. For now. Ceto came up to me, “I’m so glad your ok, I know it’s silly but I was worried about you”, she hugged me and Atalanta came up behind her, “one little pack again”, she laughed. Legend was looking at me, thoughtful eyes full of wisdom “Every one is ok?”, she asked, I looked around, every one was in one peace the fight was started and over, soon. Every one was hurt, Rowan was standing beside Bruce, talking to him, Leom and Joel were fooling around, and every one was helping with some ones scraps, cuts and bruises.
THE PARTING.

We were in Africa, it had been one day since we got back, yet it was already time to leave. We were standing outside, and I had made up my mind. We were saying goodbye to Legend when I told them what I wanted to do. “I have been thinking, and I think it would be best for all of us if I stayed here, with Legend”, I looked around to the shocked faces, “I already asked Legend, she said it was ok, I mean I’ll visit you guys....”, I was going to finish but Atalanta shut me up by hugging me, I knew she was crying silent tears, so was I. WE were crying silent tears, together, forever.

The packs were lined up, I said by to the boys, the last one of the boys was Rowan, he looked at me straight in the eye “I thought at least if you stayed with me I’d have time to get you to warm up to me, I thought may be you’d feel the same way”,
“I do feel the same way”,
“No, you don’t. I am in love with you, no one else, never, I never was, and never will be, just you”, he said, I hugged him, a long lasting hug, it felt good, I knew how I felt about him, I knew how I’d always feel about him, my arms were wrapped around his neck and his around my waist, I squeezed him, then let him go and pushed him away. He walked away, looking back every two seconds, a confused look on his face. They were running to the airport. Ceto came up and I kneeled down, “now you, you better take care of Atalanta for me, be the best girl ever, you have to keep her on the down low, you now have to do my job”, Ceto had little tears running down her face, “I don’t want to do your job, I want you to do your job, I want you to stay”, I wiped the tears from her eyes, “I know, I know, I”ll visit you, promise”, I said, she hugged me tight “I love you”, she said sweetly, “I love you too”, I said, she ran to catch up with Rowan. Last but definitely not at all the least, Atalanta. She was standing there, waiting looking at me with her purple eyes, those eyes that made us who we were. “Hi”, I said, “bye” she smiled. She pulled me in for a tight hug “I’m gonna miss you”, she said, “I”m gonna miss you too”, I said,
“I don’t know what I’m going to do with out you”,
“Oh you’ll be fine”,
“I know, but, it’s just going to be so weird with out you. It’s going to hurt”, she said,
“I know, being so far, but we will pull through it, we always have, We always will. You have Ceto now”, I said,
“But, I’m going to miss you!”, she almost yelled,
“I will never be strong, I’m always with you, we are one, always together, we have our eyes, our marks, our every thing, we have each other”, I reassured her,
“We will always be a WE”, she said, gave me a hug and ran off.
I watched her until she was long gone, then went inside and trained.

We missed each other already.
