Is It True? by R.E. Cooper (red queen free ebook .TXT) 📖

rope or a scarf..." The left that room and went into another room. In this room the bed was drenched in blood and there was a spot on the floor where it looks like a body used to be. "The drawers are open and there isn't a suit case in here liek the other rooms. Also there isn't a body in here when there should be." Then they made there way out of the room and into the last room. 

The pan pushed open the door and immediatley made a gaging noise. He shone the light on the wall and one of the other cops practically screamed. We all watched absolutely horrified. "Uhm- uh ok. There's a message written in blood on the wall above the bed. It says 'Elizabeth, lucky for you you weren't home. Unluckily for you family, I was. I intend to find you, and when I do, you won't be as lucky as your family.' Uhm wow. There usn't any blood in here, but there isn't a suit case and the closet is open and mustly empty." They walked into the bathroom and I squinted trying to figure out what I was seeing.

"Alright so theres a first aid kit and some medical supplys on the counter along with some blood. The cabinets are open and there is water in the tub still. It looks like there's blood in the water as well. Uhm there is a shirt and pants on the floor covered in blood." They walked out of the rooms and looked at everyting one more time before leaving and getting in a cop car.

"Alright so the next video will be what the head detective thinks what happens. The chief doesn't want us to do anything about this for now while they analyze everything in the crime scene." 

 

The video stopped and Dustin played the next one for us. It was a man in a trench coat sitting at a table with a cup of coffee and a file two inches thick with paper. He began to speak. "Alright so after looking at everything for a few hours here's what I think happened. The girl Elizabeth is driving home and crashes on her birthday. She walks the rest of the way and sees the house open. She takes off her shoes and leaves her stuff, walking into the house. She turns on a flashlike and sees the smoke coming from the oven, so she takes out the cake. The she goes to the living room to find her dead boyfriend. She then finds her father, dead. Then she finds her mother, dead. Then she goes into her brothers room and sees him. But he's still alive. So she takes him to her bathroom and cleans him up real good and puts him in new clothes. Then she goes in her room to change, and fins the message. Clearly she would be terrified, so she packs her stuff and her brothers stuff. 

"Since the person who did this know where she lives and knew how to spell her name, that would indicate that they either know her personally and or they had lots of connections and power. Since no one knows who did this she clearly thought she wasn't safe and couldn't go anywhere. So she takes her brother and leaves. Now the question is how does she leave and where does she go? I think she took the bus. They dont keep any online records there, just video survailence and witnesses. So I went down and asked arounf. They reported a red head girl carrying a sleeping little boy and two suit cases, she got a ticket for Tennessee, where she then got on an airplane to Florida. Unfortunetly the records at the airport doon't tell us where in florida. 

"So she's somewhere in florida, with little money and food, trying to take care of her four year old brother, after losing everyone important to her, and staying on the run from a serial killer." 

 

The video ended and we were all silent while Dustin put his stuff away. We all took the elevator up to the 7th floor, out floor. We shared one room all together. It has 8 beds. We pushed them all up against eachother so that we just had four really big beds. The couples slept together and I got one really large bed to myself. We all got into bed completely silent. All I could think of was my poor mate and everything she's been through. I had to see her. I spent an hour debating whether I should go to her when my emotions won. I got up and made my way to her room. 

 

I lightly knocked on the door but got no answer. I knocked again harder and still nothing. Maybed she was asleep. I went to turn when I heard locks twisting and the door opened to reveal a very small red haired blue eyed freckled boy staring up at me. "Uhm hi. I was wondering if I could talk to your sister?" He looked at me nervously before nodding and opening the door widder for me. I walked in and saw my beautiful mate, asleep. On.. the floor?!? The boy walked over to her and whispered into her ear. She sighed lightly and the boy groaned. He jumped onto her stomach and started to tickle her. She screamed and shot up, now very awake. "Noel! Don't ever do that again, you'll give me a heart attack. Wait, was I asleep?" The boy Noel nodded. She sighed and ran a hand through her hair. "Well at least I finished unpacking." She stood up, and then saw me. Her face paled and she pulled Noel behind her. "Noel, who's this?" 

I smiled as kindly as I could and stuck out my hand. "Hi, I'm Miles, your-" "Mate. I know, I sensed you earlier in the food court." "Then why didn't you say anything?" "Well did you?" She had a point. I sighed. "Elizabeth, I know what happened to your family, and Jason at the house." She stiffined the minute I said her name. "How do you know that?" "My friend hacked around, did a little digging." "So you tried to do an illegal backround check on me?" I nodded. "Well how's that fair, I know nothing about you?" I shrugged.

"Okay well come on in, all the way. And close the door behind you. That's if you want to stay. You can leave if you want." "I've got no reason to, so I'll stay here." She smiled at me and blinked a few times before turning around to Noel. "Hey Noel, how are you feeling?" He replied in a little voice, "a little tired." "No sweety, I mean the other feeling." "Oh, my armd still hurt but my head and legs are better." "Can I see? I have to make sure they don't get infected, okay?" He nodded and she took off his shirt and shorts. I gasped slightly at this poor kids body. He was covered in bruises and bandages. One arm was completely wrapped in gauze. She examined him quickly before setting him on top of a desk. She opened a droor and pulled out a first aid kit and a black box. 

"Here I'm going to give you some medicine so it doesn't hurt to much, but it's going to tast yucky. But I need you to swallow it, it's very important that you do that." He nodded and she opened the black box. Inside were dozens of medications. Things you could really only get if your were a high up doctor, right her father. She pulled out a tiny red pill and a slightly bigger white one. She walked over to a mini fridge and pulled out a box of orange juice. She handed him the pills and orange juice and he grimaced before swllowing them. He took small sips of the orange juice the rest of the time. 

She slowly unrapped the gauze and inspected his bloody arm. "Hey Noel, how do you feel about getting some stitches? You'll have a really cool scar." He shrugged and she smiled. She pulled out a needle and thread and quikly stitched together his arm, he only winced once. Then she undid the rest of his bandages and clean him up. Then she reaplied the bandages and put everything away. 

She threw out Noels empty orange juice and picked him up, hugging him. She hugged him tightly for a while before setting him down on her bed and kissing his forhead. "I love you," she whispered to him. He smiled back at her as his eyelids closed and he fell stright to sleep. 

She turned to me and smiled.

Elizabteth

 I whispered to Noel, and could tell the sleep pill I gave him started to work. I put my blankets over him and turned to my mate, Miles. I smiled at him and walked to him. As I hugged him I breathed in his scent. He smelt like the ocean and lime. I breathed in deeply throug my nose, immediatley turned on and both relaxed at the same time. I felt Miles do the same in the nook of my neck. I felt him let out a shaky breath onto my collar bone and I shivered involuntarily. 

Jason and I were close, sometimes a little to close. He was both my boyfriend and my best friend. The problem with this was that sometimes he felt more my frind than my boyfriend. It was hard for him to be both to me, and I sturggled immensly to be both for him. We could be on or the other for eachother, but we couldn't do both, not really.

I was still getting over his death, it was my fault. I felt the loss of him and my parents with every breath I took and move I made. But Jason felt more like loosing my best friend, not my boyfriend. That told me something about out relationship. So being with another guy didn't bother me as much as it woul dfor someone else. But also Miles is my mate. So half of me, my wolf half, is already 100% on his side and ruting for him. Plus he was litterally my dream guy.

We pulled away from eachother and he stared into my eyes. I blushed lightly, and turned to keep unpacking our things. Miles stood for a moment, just watching. "Can I help?" "Sure, can you put all the clothes from Noels suit case into the dresser?" "Yeah." We unpacked everything that we brought in a comfortable silence. Once we were done the clock read 2:34 am. "It's really early in the morning, so you can go now. I don't mind." He got and thought about it for a little before turning back to me. "Do you mind if I ijust stay here?" Hesitant I nodded. He took off his shirt and got into my bed. 

Aware of Miles eyes on me, I turned to face the closet. I took off my shirt and shorts and slipped on an oversized t shirt. It cut off at my mid thigh, exposing my long muscular slim legs. Miles growled from behind me and I blused a light red. I walked towards the
