The Girl who Cried Wolf by mobilehighlighter26 (best short books to read .TXT) 📖

Today was the day I had been dreading all summer, The day I move away from my parents to my grandparents house because i've been a 'bad kid' and a 'bad infuence'. I had never met my grandparents and I had never intended too. The only connection I had ever had with my grandparents was when they would send me and my siblings holiday or birthday cards.
I didn't think I was that bad of a kid to get shipped away from home, but apperantly I was according to my parents. My 'talking back' pretty much led me to being shipped off to Vancouver aha great Canada is just were I wanted to be...NOT.
Im going to miss everyone here. I didnt really WANT to leave my parents, I sure DIDINT want to move, im not sure if my parents know how upset I am about this. But I think they just want to get rid of me since im so bad, and im really not im more normal rather then bad. My siblings all had perfect golden brown hair, got A pluses on their report cards.
But im the kid that gets C's and B's and talks to "people" rather than just their parents. I was born with red hair that everyone at school thinks I had dyed. I spoke my mind and never backed down from people that wanted to hurt me.
"KATE ARE YOU DONE PACKING?" I hear my mother calling from downstairs. "Yea mom I will be down soon." I call down to her. I pick up my bags and my ipod and head to the car. I look out the window as we drive I see my sisters waving goodbye kindly and we take off.

Im finally here my parents have already left and im alone to walk to the huge wooden door. I knock and there is no awnser. I find the doorbell and wring that, the door opens with a creek. "Hello how may I be of service." a young man greets. "Uhm im looking for my grandparents im staying with them for well this year." The man smiles "ahh you must be Kate, please come in." I step in the house has many windows and black carpets and marble, I whistle "Nice place." I say looking around.
"Oh yes it is marvolouse" he smiles, "I am afraid that your grandparents are not here at the moments, they left for a trip, I think they left you a note in the kitchen." Alright cool" I respond. I walk to the kitchen strangley I did not needhelp finding the note on the fridge.
Dear kate we trust you enough to stay at our house bye yourself for the week. Be good, dont go into the woods, Sincerley grandfather.
Alright awesome no woods, and they'd be gone for a week. kinda mysterious. I found my way to my room and set alll my stuff down and walk to the window. I had a good look at the woods actually and also a good look at its animals. I was shocked to see a wolf as big as a horse peering at me and running away. Woah.

MARCUS P.O.V.


A car screeched into the parkers driveway and let a girl with passionate red hair and the most beautiful face I have ever seen. She slammed the car door behind her and stalked to the Parkers front door, she banged on it with her pale fist a couple times but settled on wringing the doorbell.

The butler, Sam, opened the door "How may I be of service?" the girl twiddled her fingers "I’m looking for my grandparents I’m staying with them for well the year." her voice sounded like a beautiful chorus of bells. Sam smiles “You must be Kate, Please come in." she eagerly wonders inside. Sam catches a glimpse of me, nods and slams the door shut. Where did she go? Why can’t I see her anymore? Why did Sam slam the door? I paced the ground one paw in front of the other. Then the idea hit me, I could probably see her from her window.

Kate, KATE, Her name spread through my mind like addiction as I ran to the back of the two story house, still covered in a constant amount of trees. I see her in her room now setting things down, placing things here and there. When it seems as if she’s finished she takes slow steps towards her window looking out at the woods, looking at me...HUMANS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO SEE US!I run as fast as I could through the woods and I kept running as I shift into human form, not even bothered by the scrunchyness of my skinny jeans.

"HEY MARCUS!" A voice cuts off my running "Well, well it seems as if you have a lil crush." Arynn says making kissy faces "Shut up Arynn" I snap back at her, which only makes her laugh more "Yea shut up Arynn we shouldn’t make lover boy feel bad." Adriane her twin brother says laughing louder than her. I was about to walk away when I smack into Brian "I think the alpha likes her to, that’s a shame pup." I hate when he calls me pup I mean I am only 2years younger than him.

Adriane's laugh chocked off "the alpha? Uh oh you’re not gonna have a chance now." I hear the pounding of footsteps as Marilyn runs towards us "The alpha wants to see you now." she says pointing to me. A bunch of OOOO's go through my pack as I fallow Marilyn to the alpha. When we reach him he is leaning against a tree picking as its leaves.

"Oh Marcus your here, we need to talk." I shuffle my feet. "About what exactly?" the alpha stands " I need to know if that girls saw you in your wolf form?" My heart felt like it was stopping. "Yes she saw me but im hoping she thinks I was just a regular wolf, and I think....I think we both like her." "Oh I don’t like her that much you can have her, I think I found my mate today." the alpha smiles.

I smile too "Well who is it?" I question. He sits again and looks dreamily at the sky "Her name is Kate she is staying at the parker’s house this year." Uh oh this is not good. "Uhm who were you talking about when we were discussing someone who saw me?" he frowns "Cindy Monroe of course." It was my turn to frown "I was talking about Kate." The alpha stand and growls. "You can’t have her pup, I don’t care how much you 'love' her she’s mine and I’m the alpha."

I hate it when Brian and the alpha call me PUP! I’m 16 they are 18! not that big of a difference, but I cant yell at him, I’ll get the crap beaten out of me "Alright" I say and walk away....I’m not letting her go this easy.

It’s hard to keep things secret, because after a while it’s WAY too much to bear. I see that wolf almost every day now, I know I’m supposed to tell someone, but I can’t. Today I’m starting school at Edgar J. High. What a boring name, for boring teachers I guess, for this boring town. I wasn’t allowed to leave the house once for the remaining of the summer.

Not even to go shopping or something even remotely close to that, not like there is anything here worth shopping for. But today was the day I’ve been dreading since I came to this town, High school. High school was something I used to be good at. But then I started hating it, I was bullied for being smarter than most kids, and not like honor roll smart, Genius smart. I could solve things other than just school problems, like real problems. I could find things very easily, I was overly observant.

But now I’m not, I choose to act like an idiot just to have friends. And that’s why I’m here, because I made the wrong choice and I really don’t want to make it again. I just want to go home. The wolf always reminds me of home. And I think that wolf is going to be my only friend in this town.

I walk to the door, now dressed and ready. “Sam I’m leaving now.” And slam the door shut. The ground was muddy and the air was still humid with summer heat. I walk to the road to see a car with a middle aged man in it “Hello my name is Greig, I’m your driver.” I sigh “I can walk you know.” Greig smiles “Can’t do that lil miss I’m paid to do this.”

I walk to the passenger’s seat and sit down. Looking over at Greig I huff “can we just go now?” Greig shifts in his seat “sure miss.” I glare at him “I’m not one for talk, and don’t call me miss my name is Kate.” I face the front window to avoid eye contact, I felt bad.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Greig finally drops me off at school, joy. I was greeted by the sight of cigarette smoke, blue and wafting towards my way. I wave it back and make my way inside. The school is big but not ginormous, Its walls decorated with colorful pictures and various themes. I slack my way to the office tugging on a loose thread on my backpack. I hit something hard and here a screech “WATCH WERE YOUR GOING!” I look up to see a girl with platinum blonde hair rubbing her shoulder.

“Sorry.” I say and give an apologetic smile. She sneers at me “Whatever ginger.” Her friends began to laugh. “Do I have freckles, uh no, do I have carrot red hair nope, seriously get your facts right.” I blurt. She gives me a mean smile. “Kay porcelain, seriously get a tan you look like my china doll.” I laugh “You play with dollies?” She frowns “No
