And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 63

Chapter 63: News of Talon

Taking the day to clear my mind of all the bodies that have been currently filling the pack house, I made my way into town. The need to escape the madness and find solitude in the only place I knew I could.

My favorite university.

Gripping the steering wheel of my sleek black car, I took enjoyment in the purring sound it made when I stepped on the gas. I never had a car like this, and even though it wasn’t top of the line like the guys had it was mine.

Flying past treelines, the car gripped the road without trouble. The silence allowed my mind to go through everything that had happened since the moment I woke up. I wasn’t sure where my future would lead, but I knew deep down what I was doing was right.

It had to be right.

 

Talon’s whereabouts were still unknown, and with him still missing, I couldn’t find the closure I so desperately needed. To top it off, James and Damian constantly fighting wasn’t doing any good.

James blamed him for everything that happened, and Hale sat quietly like a loose cannon ready to explode. The chaos wasn’t healthy for anyone, and if anyone should be blamed, it was me.

I was the one who came here and turned their lives upside down.

I was the one who decided to fix them and give up my chance of being normal.

They were simply following a calling. A beacon of hope they would have the mate they had always desired and with it. I brought more chaos.

Tears quietly slid down my cheeks as I let my bottled-up emotions free. The mess I had created broke me bit by bit, and as it did, I had the drive to fix it. I was just terrified while I was trying to fix it, I would fuck it up even more.

Turning off of the highway, I pulled onto the main streets of town, heading towards the university. Everything in the town was more than normal, and as I spotted some of my classmates walking on campus, I couldn’t help but be jealous of them.

That could have been me.

I could have been normal. I could have been so many things, but instead, I felt selfish.

Pushing back my emotions, I pulled into a parking spot on campus and dried my tears. My soul intention in coming to campus was to meet with my academic advisor and go over options to start taking classes again.

Yet, stepping out of my car, I felt weird. The last time I had been here was with Caleb, and his betrayal was a wound that still had not healed. He may have been bad, but he was desperate.

In times of desperation, we all make bad choices, and in the end, must learn to live with them.

Taking a deep breath, I pushed myself forward towards the office.

I had a goal to achieve, and once the five of us were back to a normal routine, I wanted to be prepared. I wanted to be able to continue what I had started.

It was about as close as I would get to being normal.

If there was even such a thing as being normal.

Forty-five minutes later, I was given every bit of information I could possibly need to get me prepared for online school. The very same type of schooling I had refused to do once before.

It was the best they could do for me, though, considering the circumstances of my immediate withdrawal a few weeks back.
