Chapter 71

I followed her with my eyes, and saw Elijah come up and spin her around in his arms. She laughed along with him, clinging onto him. Like a bright light I could see the love and happiness, and it made me smile knowing that they were going to be fine. I was glad I didn't have to carry around the burden of keeping another secret anymore. Elijah caught my eye in the middle of their hug. "Stay strong." He mouthed to me, and I nodded. "You too." I mouthed back, and watched them walk out the school doors. I leaned my head against the cool lockers and bit my lip to stop the tears. "Someday Kat, we'll be happy like that." My wolf whispers in my head. And I begin to walk out the school's front doors to meet my friends. They were all surrounding the cars, talking and laughing and I couldn't help but feel a little better that I could tell them everything, and they didn't have to be mad at me anymore.
When I reached them, I all but screamed "Tamara was pregnant and was going to get an abortion without Elijah's consent, but she didn't, and now they're both very happy and are going to have a child, and that was what I couldn't tell you before and I'm sorry." I breathed instead, and clutched my stomach. I finally felt free, and it was so
amazing, such a good feeling that I grinned and pulled everyone into a large group hug.
