NOT on the Run

*Crystal*

Damnit! I can't believe I am late again today, there is literally no doubt I am going to be in trouble with my boss. I quickly unpack the jean jacket I bought with me yesterday because of these days cold and while on my way, I rush into the bathroom to do my business.

"You're going to be late again. Well, is there any day you're never late?"Ariel says falling back unto the bed.

She's my best and only friend who also doubles as my room mate.

"I'm already on my way out so do well darling"I say with sarcasm and shut the door behind me and walk across the street.

On the exterior, the town seems normal but when you get to know the people who live there. Seriously there's everything strange about this town and it all owes to the fact that almost the whole populations are werewolves.

I should not be living here but I don't give a fuck! After what they all did to my family.

They killed them and tears threatened to roll down my face but I hold it in as I open the door to the doughnut shop where I work.

"Why am I not exactly surprised. You're literally late everyday. Every single day since I've hired you, you've never been here to time"My boss, Elyssa said.

She is also a werewolf and I openly hate her. I have no choice but to work for her since I needed money and I'm too underage to get a better job. Something like a stripper will pay a hundred times better than what I earn from Elyssa.

Not in the mood to bicker, I simply give her a look before going to change and coming back to work the counter. Everyone calls me the cold bitch cause I don't give a shit about werewolves or even talk to them. Ariel is the only werewolf I talk to and that's because we've been friends even before I knew her identity.

While working at the counter, some werewolves come in and take their sit. While they were chatting out loud, they mentioned something really important.

"Some rouges attacked us last night so the Alpha thought they might still be loitering around or be among us so he sent his guards to look around town..."

That was the important but I caught right before my co worker decides to impair my listening by interrupting

"Are you sure you don't wanna leave" Aaron, who happens to be my co worker said. He's also a werewolf, one of the annoying creatures.

Thinking of it, It isn't really that hard to identify them, ever since I found out about Ariel it has been quite easy to recognize them. They got this tattoos,height and body structure you wouldn't mind touching or spending a night with plus they are dangerously good looking, and when I say dangerously good looking, I mean charming. But no matter how tempting that might be I, Crystal Lucario Davenport would never have anything to do with them. I hope the rouges kill them all especially that ruthless beast they call their Alpha.

"Leave? Elyssa is going to fire me and make sure I never get a job elsewhere"I roll my green eyes.

"That's ma'am Elyssa to you baby doll. One of these days, she'll come for you at night when you're defenseless"Liam teased.

He has been trying to get in my good books ever since I started working here,I glare at him and remove my apron, hung it and then left the kitchen.

I decide to try my luck and hope Elyssa doesn't fire me, it's only her name that sounds nice, nothing else about her is nice, but I need the money for my college fee. It has always been my parents dream for me to go to college but we were so poor and my parents could not afford it and I didn't pester them for it not until they died.

So I will be making their dreams come true by sponsoring myself, I'm sure they will be proud of me if they were still alive but it's all these damn werewolves fault that they aren't alive anymore. Talking of werewolves, I'm going to meet one now. Gosh, If only they knew how much I hate them, I might seriously take a chance to be a vampire or even a witch.

"What are you thinking of? You're supposed to be working the counter aren't you? You come late and now you're dawdling"Elyssa glare at me.

"Alpha Damien's men are going to parade around the town. You know I can't be seen doing anything here? I need to leave" I voice out almost desperately. I don't want to die yet without making my parents proud and probably getting appropriate revenge for their deaths.

"You are not a rouge are you?" She sniffed me.

"You're human so go back into your work station"She ordered and then walked away.

She just freaking walked off like I came to her to beg for a doughnut.

Well since the boss says I can't leave, I might as well stay here and let them capture me. And at least before they kill me, I hope I get the chance to kick the Alpha Damien's prettyface.
