Note: Chapter 29 will be posted when it's been approved by my editor :) I noticed some people asking when previous chapters will be up that were waiting for approval. ALL chapters except 29 as of now (14th March) are posted. Thanks, guys! :) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter Thirty No, I wasn't having this. I quickly finished my breakfast and grabbed my bag. Completely ignoring Toby and my parents. ‘It's fine, I’ll walk’. I wouldn’t. I’d text Thomas and ask him for a lift. I was on his way anyway, and school wasn’t walking distance, but at this rate, I WOULD rather walk than him giving me a lift. What was he going to do? Shift into a dog and l

Chapter Thirty Two   By the time lunchtime rolled around, I was well and truly sick of school. All I had heard all day, even from my friends, was how attractive one of the new teachers was. Sophie also wouldn’t stop asking if I was ok like she knew something was wrong. I knew she meant well, but it was starting to piss me off a little bit.  I went into the canteen to get some food before joining my friends on their usual patch of grass out on the field. The weather was so lovely still, even though summer had technically ended, that most of the students and staff were out here relaxing too.  ‘Not hungry?’ Thomas asked, looking down at my simple sandwich and bottle of water. I shook my head. I really wasn't. Maybe it was all the stress recently, but I’ve barely been hungry the past few days.

Chapter Thirty Four Violet’s Point of View After I sent that text message, I did start to already feel slightly better but not completely. I waited for him to arrive, but in the meantime, I just kept my eyes closed, trying not to have a full blown anxiety and panic attack. I was struggling... Until I heard the door of the classroom open and close. ‘Violet?’ As soon as I heard Toby’s voice, I jumped up from my hiding place and stumbled in the dark to find him. Reaching my arms out, feeling around for him. The second I touched him, I wrapped my arms tight around him and just sobbed. He just held me back tightly, shushing me and stroking my back. He didn’t speak or ask me what was wrong or r

Chapter Thirty Six Violet’s Point of ViewI sat down at the work bench and just pulled all my necessary books out of my bag. It was a carry on lesson from before summer. My science class hadn’t changed, so all my books were still relevant. I wasn’t really paying attention, I just drifted off and once again stared out the window. The teacher was rambling away in the background, but I couldn’t tell you what about. My mind was completely elsewhere already. Someone nudged my shoulder. I ignored it at first, but then they did it again… and again... And again. I whipped my head around to ask what they wanted. Surprise surprise, it was Sophie. ‘What?!’ I whispered, annoyed with her constantly bugging me. 

Chapter Thirty Eight Violet’s Point of View I stayed in my room for a little while, but I was going insane. I sent Sophie a text and asked If I could stay at theirs tonight. I didn’t go into detail, I just said things were a bit awful at home at the moment. Almost immediately, she texted back and said of course. I quickly packed a bag and snuck out of my house. I’d text mum and tell her I was staying away at a friends tonight, Once I was already there. Even though she and dad had really upset me, I wouldn't want to make her worry like that.  Sophie and Raven didn’t live too far away, walking distance really, and by the time I got there, the twins were waiting for me at the bottom of their driveway. Their house was near enough a mans
