Hope
My skin’s on fire.
Not burning. Buzzing. Tingling like sparks are dancing under my skin. The heat is a never ending pulse, and ache that highlights the emptiness inside of me.
My wolf whines and pants, paws and calls out to her mate.

Mate. Mate. Mate, she chants.
My nails dig into the leather seats of Keith's car.
His scent is a siren calling out to me in tones of smoke and rain.
My breath comes fast. My fingers tremble form the force it takes to hold them in place.
“Are you sure you don't want to go to Emma instead,” Kieth asks again.
“No. Keep driving.”
Even in my delirious state the thought of going back to Blue Rock and having my father possibly see me
