Abused and Broken(The Broken Series 1-3)

Chapter 3

*Ember*

I wake up to a loud bang. I think a textbook fell. My eyes flutter open and see him just as his scent of sandalwood and lavender hits my nose. I can see that he is reaching for me. s**t the spray is wearing off I can't believe i fell asleep this long, While his back is turned I jump up grab my stuff and run, run as fast as I can.

I bolted through the door and down the hallway, I couldn't let him see me. As I run down the hall my hood flies off and my long hair comes out. I run into the nearest bathroom I can and lock the door behind me. I dump my bag out to quickly grab my spray and use it, i need to hide my full scent. I know he didn't get my full scent if he had not even a book falling would have distracted him from me. Hopefully he won't try to follow me in here. My body and lungs are burning from running that fast and that hard, not to mention the panic attack at almost being found is causing. I think I am safe now so I start breathing normal. Just to be sure he isn't looking or waiting for me to come out I chose to go out the window, no chance he will see me then. As I climb up to the window by standing on the toilet in the last stall, there is a knock at the door.

*Blaze*

After she ran, I let out a growl and I went to follow her. I was out the door and trying to look, when I turned to my right I saw her, Damn she is fast. Her hood falls and all at once I am hit with even more of her scent Vanilla and Roses, still has that lingering of something not meant to be there but what I can smell has me ready to give chance, whatever isn't meant to be there is fading fast.I look again and see the most beautifully unique color hair, light silver with streaks of a darker silver grey it remind we of the moon, it is so long it falls all the way to her ass. Haze is hollowing inside my head. I sprint down the hallway to follow her, I turn the corner and she is gone...and now I can't smell her at all.

"what the f**k" Haze said

"I know it's weird where she goes?"

" What's going on?"

"I don't know but we are gonna find out"

I keep walking and find a girls bathroom. I know I shouldn't but I push on the door. It's locked. I put my ear to the door and I hear someone moving around. I knock on the door hard and all movement stops.

" Girl with the silver hair, are you in there?" I push myself flush against the door. I want it to be her. I want to know why she ran. Why can't I smell her? I want, no, I need to know who she is.

"please go away' her voice hit me like the most wonderful song. I sigh though because she sounds so sad, so scared. Why is she scared?

"I just want to talk to you... Do you know who I am?" I ask her this for a reason. Depending on how she answers will tell me if she is human or a wolf.

"Yes' ' her voice has Haze begging for control to knock down the door, she is already scared I can't let that happen. I still don't know if she truly knows who I am.

"Tell me who you think I am'

There is silence, a pause, I hold my breath.

"You are Blaze, the next Alpha to the Eternal Night pack."

I let the breath out she knows who I am and her voice saying my name. Now I want to break down the door. I can feel some kind of pull. But she can't be part of my pack. I know I would remember her.

"Open the door, please"

" I can't" Why is she so afraid, and why is it breaking my heart to hear it in her voice

"yes you can" I chuckle "whats your name?"

Another long pause, Like she is thinking about what to say or how to answer.

"Surely you can at least tell me your name?" I say softly

" You don't need to know my name, I am nothing, I am no one"

My heart dropped at hearing those words come from that lovely voice. Before I could say anything back I heard a glass break and the smell of blood hit my nose. I didnt think, I kicked the door off the hinges, and saw the window was broken. She must have cut herself while she was getting through it. I peak my head out of the window careful not to cut myself. It's all that would fit. I am too big to get out. All I can see is her turn the corner and disappear. "Who was she?" I asked myself. I walk back to the classroom, my mind still trying to sort through everything that just happened

"I am nothing, I am no one"

I don't understand why those words hurt me and made Haze whine, she truly could be no one or nothing.I let out a loud exhale as i reached the classroom.

"Mark!" I yelled for my beta and best friend. He looks at me with surprise and confusion, as I motion him to come over to me.

" What was that man? Why did you chase after the weirdo?"

Those words instantly make me and my wolf growl low and angry.

"Who is she?" I demand Mark stiffened up

"I..I dont know. She been going to school here since freshman year"

"What!?!? How have I never noticed her?"

"I don't know...Should I find out who she is?"

"yes. I want to know everything you can find out about her. who she is, where she lives, when she got here, what pack she is in. Everything, and I mean everything. I want to know why i have never seen her and why i can't get a good smell of her scent. and I want it done like last year!!'' At this point I am making a scene but I don't even care. Thankfully this class is full of nothing but Werewolves so it isnt to bad.

I turned to Ms. White she has the answers I need right now. " Ms.White Who is she? What is her name?" I say with a growl.

"Ember, her name is Ember."

Her name is so beautiful I almost purr at the sound of it. Haze does. I find it ironic that Ember comes from a fire. We both have names that have something to do with fire.

I need to know this girl. What I mostly need to know is Why she said she was nothing.
