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

I held my new world close to my heart like a security blanket; just remember this is not your imagination. Buts it’s actually really hard I mean you try to look at a girl tall as a soda can and not freak out. My curiosity is its limit I feel like I need to know everything about this brand new shiny world. Its sounds so much better but Credessa, the Fae girl says it’s Dangerous and no place for a half breed like me especially because “Beasts” as she calls them are targeting me. Credessa has vowed to be everywhere with me because she thinks she should a good deed once by protecting me, so unfortunately we are both going to school. A sudden knock on the front door and a fully glamoured Credessa at the front door She looks almost the same except she is normal height and doesn’t have those Striking black wings “Hello Kate are you excited or what!” Her voice has reached a slightly deeper monotone then her usually tinkling bell voice.
“Yea sure.”
“Hey don’t even spoil this for me; this is my first time in a human school.” She grins widely and tugs on my arm. We head towards Grieg’s car. It was silence the ride to school I know I’m supposed to apologize but my stubbornness over rules me. We finally make it to school and instead of there being chaos like the last time I went it was like a ghost town, way less students were here then there were before. It was quiet to so quiet it scared me.
“Uh this isn’t what I expected.” Credessa says with a grimace
“Yea this isn’t what I expected either.” I can feel the scowl on my face as I see that one boy and Arynn looking at me again. Credessa looks in my direction and gives them a look full of vile hatred and whispers “Beasts.” My head snaps over to look at her
“Excuse me what did you say.”
“I said they are beasts.”
“You mean werewolves, or something different.”
“Beasts, werewolves, does it matter.”
As if Arynn heard she tugs the boys arm and walks over to us.
“Hello, Kate right?” she smiles.
“Yea, this is Credessa.” I point to her and a frown pins her face.
Arynn nods her head at her and says “This is Marcus my cousin.”
Marcus’s eyes pinned me like needles but the feeling is familiar “Hello.”
“H-Hi.”
Oh my, he is my wolf

I tried to avoid Marcus all day I just can’t face him because if he is my wolf he has to have some recognition of me, but boys aren’t my problem I have to find out more about my kind, half breeds.
“Credessa, how much do you know about half breeds?” I ask
“Not anything but I can take you to someone who does know.” She implies
“Today?” I watch my feet and sigh
“Sure follow me.” Credessa then turns in to her soda can size and flies so fast I have to run to keep pace.
When we reach our destination we are at a marble home that looks so grand well-kept and pristine I’m afraid when I walk inside I will have to clean the floors if my shoes get on it.
“Beautiful isn’t it?” Credessa gawks at the marble palace
“Yea it’s a looker for sure.” Credessa lifts her hang to knock but the door is open before she can. A woman no older than 20 is at the door her face has striking features and she is by far the tallest woman I have seen, maybe 6’5. Her eyes were a different story, the only flaw about her, her eyes were two different colors, one blue and one red.
“Credessa? What?” The woman was a contradiction to me her features so soft and nice but her voice bitter and cold filled with disgust.
“Hello Ms. Estelle!” Credessa lets herself in and I am caught off guard, the welcome seemed so mean I wouldn’t have gone in.
“Are you with her?” The woman, Estelle, hooks her thumb at a dancing Credessa.
“Yes.” I imply hoping she likes simple answers I don’t want my first impression to be annoying.
“Come.” She says allowing me room to step inside first and I do swiftly.
The room we are in is even more pristine than the outside. Not only are the floors and walls white marble but everything she owns, couches, books, flowers in vases, it’s all white. I take a look at Estelle once more and realize her hair is a beautiful blonde- almost white. Me and Estelle sit while Cresessa dances.
“Why are you here Credessa?” Estelle asks blandly with no emotion.
“My friend, Kate would like to know about half breeds.” Credessa dances around the marble floor.
“Worthless abominations created by idiots.” Estelle glares at me. “And let me guess you’re one of them I can smell it on you.”
I stare at her my eyes wide “S-smell I just found out I’m one.”
Her lip curls “How can you just find out half breeds don’t bleed haven’t you ever thought that was a little strange!” She was right I haven’t ever bled before I guess I just hadn’t thought about it.
Estelle smiles grimly “Humans, Even monsters bleed but you don’t your just an empty shell harboring a tiny brain that lets you speak and think.” She smiles again at my discomfort “you’re a nothing, a waist of space.” I can feel my hands shaking with anger and I look to see Credessa has stopped dancing ready to hoist me out of there.
“Haven’t you ever thought you were different I mean look at you compared to your family and all the kids at your school, you may have monsters inside you but you are not one yourself nor are you human you are nothing.” She sneers
I stand and quietly exit the house but when I get outside I go on a rampage. Running full speed to my house the most animal of growls rips from my throat. I reach my house grabbing for the door I crush the knob and rip the door off its hinges, throwing it into the woods surrounding my house. I stalk up to my room and grab a pair of scissors. I cut my rib length hair above my shoulder and feel somewhat relived, I look down at the hair I just cut off once blood red and now golden brown, what my hair color would have been if I wasn’t a half breed I look at myself in the mirror again and gasp in shock my hair has already grown back to is previous rib length, I cut it again and again but it grows back each time. I throw the scissors out the window and lay on my bed. Why must i be a shell.
