Chapter 0064

“Beat the beta girl to prove you are better, her family supports the abuse. Beat her worse than thelast person who beat her and you win the popular vote. Throw her into lockers, make her bleed atleast once a week. Steal her clothes and things from the locker room, throw them in the shower andpee on them. Chain and whip her in the locker room for asking too many questions in class andmaking you look stupid for not knowing the answers. Blindfold and chain her up in an old storageshed and whip her to the point of throwing up and almost being unconscious, but don’t let her passout, she should feel the pain all because she did better than you at something or gained positiveattention over you. Then to make it more memorable, rub silver powder into the wounds making herflesh burn and scar and then drag her to the forest to bleed out and die a slow painful death unlessshe is worthy enough to survive.” My tears are flowing now, but I manage to look up at them all.Sierra has her hands over her mouth, tears shimmering in her eyes. They all look shocked and at aloss for words.

I’m angry again, but they asked for this, they wanted to know and as much as I was trying to keepthis hidden, I can’t seem to stop the word vomit. I can feel my confidence rising as I say each word,like a weight is being lifted from my shoulders. I maintain eye contact with them now.

“The spot you found me tonight, do you want to know why it is my favorite spot, why it smells somuch like me?” None of them move, even the forest seems to be holding it's breath waiting for meto speak. I feel a rush of morbid satisfaction at letting them in on my torture.

“It’s where I survived, where I made the decision to live. I was left, bleeding out from the lashes Ireceived for having the audacity to get in the way of someone else. The silver was added, becausethe previous whipping I received, I healed too quickly from, the scarring wasn’t gruesome enough. Igo to that spot to remind myself that I am still here, I came out of that, without you or anyone else.My wolf stepped up when I had no one else. She forced me to shift and caused me a little morepain in order to help me heal and live. I was there for two days. No one came looking for me, and Iwas only a mile or so from the packhouse backyard. So forgive me when I call bullsh*t on the

thought of any of you helping me. You didn’t notice when I was right there in front of you and youdidn’t notice when I wasn’t.” Mouths dropped. With all the things about these guys that are greatand I am coming to care for, this is their fatal flaw. They have been sheltered from the actual badthings that happen in a pack. They have never had to deal with real problems, they think they willjust magically have people fear and respect them. They believe that they are untouchable, but atwhat cost?

“You all have been a part of the problem and don’t think for a second you are going to come intoschool threatening people on my behalf. Even being friends with you and being seen in publicregularly with you, the bullying hasn’t stopped, just gotten more creative. I do not need protectors, Ihave survived everything on my own, just fine. So don’t even think about it, I am not weak and youwill not treat me like I am or make people believe I am. I know how strong I am, I know that every hitI take is one that no one else has to receive. With all your training and status, none of you haveever actually had to fight for your pack members. Had Sierra not joined us this year and for somereason I still don't understand, chose to talk to me, none of you would be sitting here now, none ofyou would have looked twice in my direction. I was forced into your circle, she is the only reasonany of you are paying attention to me now, listening to my story. But the problem is, have you eventhought about any of the other kids going through what I am? You have pack members who aretorturing other pack members without cause or consequence. So before you think about trying tosave me or protect me, why don’t you help someone else who actually needs it.”
