Hey guys,

Here is the next chapter, you will be pleased to note that it is slightly longer than my previous ones but I had written most of it last night so I only had to read through it again to make sure it was alright to put up.

Thanks to everyone who voted and commented, I love you all. Oh, sorry for any errors but it was getting late and my wrists were killing me.

Lots of love

Chapter 13

Holly’s Pov

I never used to sleep well, always fearing that I would be violently awoken or the nightmares would cause me to wake up screaming. It was something I had gotten used to, not being able to risk closing my eyes in case horrible images flashed behind my lids when I let myself relax. Things I remembered which I wanted nothing more than to forget, it was painful for me to see them again, to re-call the unforgettable aspects of my life that my innocent-self had been forced to witness and endure as I was growing up.

Surprisingly I didn’t pity myself; I knew that somewhere out there someone must be worse off than I was. It was what kept me sane, trying desperately to look on the bright side of life even when I look back on it now and want nothing more than to cry my eyes out.

So when I didn’t normally sleep well I couldn’t help but realise as soon as I started to wake from my sleep that it was the first time in my life that I have ever slept without waking up screaming. I couldn’t help but tense, wondering if I had been drugged in my sleep only to relax my form slightly when I realised I was surrounded thickly in a scent which had my wolf purring in delight. I knew whose it was; I would be able to recognise it anywhere now. Adrian.

I still had no idea what he wanted with me, why he was wasting his time with a broken girl who had nothing to her name. Why was he even bothering with me, it was clear he could have his choice of any females considering he was the sweetest guy I had ever met, not to mention he was far from unattractive. What with his muscular form, thick black hair and soft eyes that made me want to melt. But I knew I didn’t stand a chance, I mean what would he want with a skinny and unhealthy looking girl who could probably break with the gentlest of touches. No, it was better if I didn’t get my hopes up for something which I knew would never happen; even if the thought made my wolf whine in pain.

It was another reaction I was curious of, why my wolf was acting in such an unusual way. She had always been with me over the years, talking to me to help keep me sane from the life that I was brought up in. She much like myself had never been happy though, never felt anything other than pain and shame. Now though she seemed to be alive, as if woken from a long sleep. It was when I thought of Adrian I noticed, how she would purr in comfort as if she had fallen for his wolf already. I had no idea what this meant, but I had a feeling that he most likely didn’t feel the same way. It was probably due to the fact he was the first and only person who has ever been nice to me I thought, she simply wanted the comfort she thought he could give us. Not that I blamed her, she had a right to hope after all.

Sighing softly I slowly let my eyes flutter open, not remembering where I was until I felt as if I was lying on a cloud. The soft material felt unusual but comforting against my skin, the skirt he had obviously given me leaving my legs bare and I was thankful he had spared a pair of his boxers, even if the thought of him seeing me so intimately made my flush a hundred shades of red. I didn’t know why he was still hanging around; it was clear that now he had seen all of me that I wasn’t anything special to look at. I was a broken, fragile girl who was now alone in the world completely.
