Fading to Memories

Accalia's POV

I avoided my father for the rest for the week along with my family. I couldn't look him in the face after what I had seen and read in those journals. Everything that I had known about my family was a lie. The gentle father I had knew was dead. The mother that I knew didn't hide things from me was dead. My own brother Dean was training to be one with my father along with my other brothers except Dallas. From what the journal's said Dallas is just too kindhearted to be one. I heard a voice I used to say I knew coming from outside my room. It was my mother. The one that used to tell me she would never hide anything from me that we had an honest relationship. But that was all a lie. "May I come in?" She said as she knocked on the door. I wanted to tell her no, but it would then give away I knew something and that would put Easton and I in danger.

"Come in mom." It didn't take her long to come in with a smile on her face and a plate of pancakes. "You didn't come downstairs for breakfast Hunny is something wrong?" of Corse something was wrong my family has been lying to me my whole life. "Nope everything is great I would just like to be alone though, I needed to rest before I get ready to go to Easton's house." She looked at me with a surprised look on her face. It was the first time I had brought up, but I didn't have time to chit chat about it. "Easton James, the Easton you came home freshman year saying you hated." I flipped my hair and gave a smile. Ever since the woods I haven't been able to not yearn for him. The words that he said to me came into mind. "You're the one, you're my mate." Those words made me feel like nothing in the world mattered. Not the lies from my family, the reality of my future, nothing. "Hunny hello?" My mom said waving her hand in my face. "I have to get dressed mom thanks for breakfast." I got up and put on a lace crop top and overtly ripped jeans. I curled my and put on my full face make up before I texted Easton.

Be here in 30. Kinda wants to see my "mate".

In less than a minute he replied

"I'll be there in 20 loves."

I put my phone in my pocket and waited for his message telling me he was here. There was a lot of things that we needed to talk about. Especially before the 22nd. That wasn't that far away now that I thought about it. I feared what the change was going to be like. Would it be like the werewolf transformations in the movies? Brutal, painful, and inhumane. It was scary to know I would be having to go through it, but I wouldn't be alone. I had Easton. He was going to be there for me during the whole thing or at least I hoped. I really didn't know for sure.

My phone dinged and it was Easton. Guess I would find out if he was going to be there with me during the change. Throwing my phone and charger into my purse I headed downstairs only for my dad to be waiting for me at the bottom. "How's the bite?" he said nervously. I showed him the healing and told him it was getting better slowly but surely. He gave me a smile before going back into his study. Ever since that night he had been distant from me like he was trying to not get sick or something. But I knew what it was. He didn't want to go threw what he went threw with grandma and our aunt. He didn't want his child to become a monster that he would have to chain up and give vervain to every full moon. Yet the reality was I was going to become one of them enslaved to the moon. It was a sad reality that we would all have to face. To my family I would soon be fading to distant memories like the old polaroid pictures on my walls. at least those will be how my father would love to remember me.
