Mae's P. O. V

"Hey, come on. I have brought you breakfast. Miles prepared it specially for you and he is a great cook", Red said proudly as I laid on the bed facing the ceiling.

"You have to eat eventually",she spoke but I didn't budge.

She sat beside me and rested her hand on mine. I sat up and looked at her. She pulled me in for a hug as I cried on her shoulders. I don't know why I feel this way, its not like we were dating or so but it felt like a break up. I felt empty, I felt lonely, I felt heartbroken. My chest ache badly and I couldn't stop crying even if I wanted and I have lost the appetite to eat. I just longed to see him, I longed to be in his arm, I longed to feel his presence, I longed to feel his care, his love. It has just been four to five days since Andre sabotaged all ties with me.

"I know it hurts, it always does. Let it all out", she stroked my hair and I sobbed harder.

The door opened and Rita and our brothers came in. Red pulled away and stood up. Jay sat beside me and hugged me as he kissed my forehead. I miss this feeling, the feeling of been in Jays arm, the care and love he shower me, I miss it all. I pulled away and wiped the tears but they kept flowing.

"I am really sorry. I never meant to hurt anyone. I really didn't. I was just angry. They abandoned ma after everything she had done for their family. And Angel, I couldn't take it anymore, I felt like I needed to teach her a lesson and put an end to the interruptions and annoyance. I felt like she was the master mind of everything and the reason why no one wanted to help. I am sorry ", I apologized.

"We understand. That's why we only tried to make you weak and nothing else. She deserves it though", Josh joked and Jay hit his hand playfully and we all laughed.

"How is everyone? I hope no one is truly hurt", I asked.

"Well Angel is. She is bedridden. ", Kelvis said.

"But the rest are fine", I asked.

"A few stitched but we are okay. Susan and Anna are still weak due to the black opal, the effect is still there but they will be fine eventually", Peter explained and I nodded.

"Nate. How is he? ", I asked as I was anxious to know.

"Just as miserable as you are ", Rita joked.

"Even more miserable", Red seconded and I felt bad.

"Where is Aunt? ", I asked.

"Sitting room", Kelvin said and I wiped the tears off my cheeks and went downstairs.

I didn't bother washing my face because I knew they will make the apology hard on me. When I got to the sitting room, I saw Angel in the arms of her ma as she rested her leg on the centre table with Aunt Susan sitting beside her. Miles and his younger siblings sat on the couch while their parents sat on the arm chair watching a movie.

"Good morning", I greeted everyone and just Miles family responded.

Mrs Green picked up the remote and muted the TV so they could all hear me out and sincerely speaking, I was grateful. I cleared my throat and got ready to speak before Reeny, Avery, Ry, Ryan and Miles came to the sitting room.

"I am sorry for what happened four days ago. I never intended to hurt anyone all I wanted was to teach Angel a lesson.", I stopped and looked beside me and saw Jay and Josh in the kitchen.

"Is that why you disfigured my sister? I have always sided you but not anymore. I am sick and tired of your tantrum. I am sick and tired of you making us seem inferior. We all get it you are strong but you don't have to rub it on our faces. Angel is right, everyone knows of you but no one knows of us and you don't seem to help matters. Our ma were abducted because they are after you, yet you fight against us. Ingrate. Christine and Andre knew we were Demonites all because of you but no one said anything. You keep putting our lives in danger. If anything happens to us, know its your fault. ", Avery spat her mind out and I swear I wasn't surprised but was really hurt to hear one of my best friend saying this to my face.

"Its not my fault they knew, we all sold ourselves out and you think I am happy that I am the strongest or that the word knows of me? ", I asked in anger.

"Yes. Mae McCallister love been in the spotlight. She loves people bowing down to her but we don't expect less from The god of lights grand daughter, so we are not shocked. If you weren't sassy you won't have caught the attention of Nathan and Kathlyn, so yes it is your fault they knew. Everything that ever happened to us is your fault. Your ma's dis-"

"She is apologizing. Its unlike her to apologize so you ought to know its genuine and from her heart. Don't give her a-"

"Don't side your sister. She is on the wrong here", Mil yelled.

"And you guys aren't on the right either. Every time Angel taunt my sister, you all keep quiet and no word is uttered and when my sister defenses herself the whole house is against her. Even her best friends are against her, shame. Shame on you guys, we ought to stand my each other but you guys are doing the opposite. This is why I prefer been a wiz-"

"Josh", I hit his hand so he won't spill our secret.

"Its fine.(I faced Mil and co.) I am sorry for hurting you all. I only intended to teach her a lesson nothing more. ", I ended and faced Miles and his family.

"I am sorry for hurting you all. I never intended to involve you all, its just that when I am angry, I am a complete different gifted. Sorry if I gave you all an internal injury ", I apologized.

I walked towards Angel to heal her but her sister and her new bestfriends pushed me to the ground. I sighed and stood up. I gave a fake laugh and left for my room.

As I walked to my room I saw that Nates room was opened I heard voice, it sounded like they aren't agreeing to something. As I got closer the voices became clearer.

"Man, you need to give her a break. She would never intentionally kill your sister and you can't accuse her ma of murdering your ma just because-"

"She had no plans of telling me that she is my rival, if she had told me I wouldn't allow myself to fall for her. You have no idea, the pain I feel. My family's murder has been closer than I thought. The girl I love more than anything in the world murdered my sister. Do you think I mean to hate her? Do you think I enjoy it? Seeing her I just have mixed feelings. I don't know if I should love or hate her. I don't know if I should forgive her or make her pay. I don't know okay? ", Nathan yelled and tears ran down my cheeks.

"Love her. Forgive her. She is sorry. You have no idea how hurt and heartbroken she is", Light tried reasoning with him.

"I will never forgive her. I can't forgive her. She has caused me more pain than she thinks.", Nathan said

"She is a witch just like you -"

"She is also a demonite and my mom and sisters murder. She took my world from me, she took my joy from me. She took everything I love from me", Nate sobbed and I felt hurt.

At this point I wish I could go back in time and change the fact that I killed his only sibling. I walked into my room and began to cry. I threw most of my things that were on the table to the floor. I staggered backwards and fell to the clutching to my chest finding it hard to breath. Hearing him talk against me and harboring hatred for me is just heartbreaking.

The door opened and Kate entered into the room. I wiped my tears and tried to act like everything was okay but I know she could see through me because she is also inlove. She pulled me to her and I rested my head on her chest as I cried.

"Let it all out. It helps.", she encouraged.

"Do you know what hurt more? The way he talks about me like I am the worst person on earth. I feel guilty and regret and my family ain't helping matters", I sobbed as I raised my head from her chest.

"He is hurt Mae. ", she said softly.

"So am I. My ma is missing no one is willing to help. My bestfriends hate me, my ex boyfriend and crush despise me. The one after heart hates me. Everyone blames me. My brothers call me luckiest but right now I don't feel like one", I wiped the tears that fell.

"You are. I mean you are a demonite and a witch. You possess the powers of whoever you transform to and you cast spells. You really are lucky", she said and I shaked my head in disagreement.

" I am not. They all think its a good thing I am known by gifted and non gifted but its not. Everyone is after me. People were held captive because they were after me. My ma is in danger because of me. Every gifted wants me for their selfish benefits. My whole body is worn out, I think of my ma everyday, I fear for her, then Nate, he hates me more than anything and we just can't be together, our kinds can't be together. My bestfriends hates me due to a secret I hid from Reeny they have no idea I have more heart breaking secrets, everyone is on my mind, my safety is on my mind, why won't my body be worn out."I explained.

"And my whole system is worn out. Have you watched Lucy?(she nodded). I can't control the way my body acts most times. I haven't really understood the way my body acts since I am a shafeshifter. The only reason I haven't disappeared is because I have gotten used to it. I have had powers from birth but Lucy didn't. ",I ended.

"How did you -"

"Avery forced me to watch it ", I chuckled.

"The gods knew why they gave you this power and this life. They knew you were strong enough to handle to it, don't prove them wrong. I have seen you Mae, you are strong, stronger than you think. If Nate isn't willing to accept the past and move on then maybe he isn't worth been with the strongest person on earth", Kate smiled and I hugged her.

"Thanks for the talk, I really needed it. I need to go for a run", I said and teleported into the forest.

I transformed into a wolf and ran till I became tired. I ran to take my mind of things. I ran to forget I ever loved Nate but none of this worked. Maybe Kate was right if he isn't willing to forgive me for a crime I committed years ago then we are not meant to be together. I am strong, I don't need to act weak. Thank you Kate.
