Free Trinity - Defying Destiny by Kylie Price Page A

about her first feeding experience. I turned and walked over to the far wall and started looking at all the weapons that were hung up or sat on tables. They were all cleaned and polished. There were some battens, knives, staffs, and even guns. I remembered that night of the forest and how excited I was when we opened up Jason’s trunk to find a whole heap of weapons. Now that I looked at them, I felt scared and unsure about myself. Was I really that much of a threat to people for them to try to avoid me. Was there some sort of power that I had, to have them all scared and fearful to be around me? Or was it just as simple as what Ally had said? That it was my fault that we were all nearly exposed. Was I still in danger from my own kind? Even throughout history, people have always seemed to destroy things that they deemed a threat or were unsure about. How was I going to prove to everyone that there was nothing dangerous about me? Sure, now my temper and emotions are hard to rein in, but that didn’t mean I was dangerous. It just meant that I needed some guidance, I needed some sort of stability. Something that felt normal.
    Why didn’t they understand what was going on in my head? Only a few weeks ago I had found out that my destiny had already been written. Then I was told that humans were not the only species that lived among us. I, like them, had been thrown into a new world that seem to have nothing but deception, blood, anger, and monsters. Oh yeah, finding out that the guy I was crushing on was not only an alpha wolf, but had also been the one to wake MY dormant werewolf.  This was possible because Garth, the main werewolf, is indeed my father who was never there while I was growing up, but in fact had been there even though I never knew because he wanted to protect me from all this crazy stuff. It didn’t seem to work out too well. To add to my list I’d also turned my best friend into a vampire who seems to be handling that a lot better than I was; my other best friend is a werewolf who was happy to be whom she is or at least she seems to be. The final crunch, the one I tried not to dwell on too much was Mark. He not only betrayed me, but he betrayed Sky and Nikkee and put us all in danger. I wanted to punch him in the face so badly. I looked down and saw that my fists were clenched without even feeling the pain that was going through my palm. I unlocked my hands to see that my nails had dug their way into my skin and blood was seeping out freely. I held my hands up to my face and watched as the blood flowed and then the cuts closed over. I frowned to myself, it didn’t seem to happen that fast for Sky, was I some sort of super healer?
    I pushed that thought aside, I didn’t really care, what I did care about was who was with me and who wasn’t. How was I going to find out who I could trust and who I couldn’t when I’ve been deceived before and so had the others? I needed to talk to Lachlan and find out if he could help me find Carra’s hidden prophecies, help me sift through who I could trust and who I couldn’t because at the moment I could only count those numbers on one hand.

Chapter Fourteen
    I left the others in the training centre as I silently creeped out. I knew it didn’t go unnoticed by Garth or Lachlan, but they let me be. I wasn’t really feeling anything, just overwhelmed. I wanted to do something, something fun, and something the old Trinity would do. As I walked down the hall, I pondered on what that would be. The old me seemed so far away and untouchable. I felt rebellious like I had with Lachlan. He didn’t even tell me about Garth, although he never told me much about anything. Most of it I had to find out on my own with Nikkee’s help. I understood that they wanted me to find out the hard way, to learn along the way. But if they would’ve been straightforward with me from the start, I may not have told Nikkee, nor Sky or at least I would have had some proof so Sky would not have
