to pass-out from the pain, but resist the urge because he will beat me more if I do. He punches me in the face again; jerking my broken jaw. I squeak out of pain. He roars, stepping on my leg as he pulls me up, breaking my leg. He made it another one of those days.

I wake up on the floor in searing pain. Help! I cannot talk, cannot move, I have too many broken bones. The door opens and I cringe.
"Katya? You okay?"
I make a pained sound that is barely loud enough for Bazzer to hear. He is one year younger than Ryan. "Oh, shi--" he bit off the end of the word. "I'm goin' to have to pick you up and carry you to Ryan's. I'm sorry, Father..." He trails off in German for a few seconds. He picks me up, trying to be gentle but little black dots dance across my vision. I am sweating and have tears streaming down my face before he makes it to my door. I cannot help the pained noises I make until we are most of the way down the driveway and the pain is so bad I cannot even make them anymore. "Shi--" Bazzer bites off again when I stop making noise. He starts walking faster. I know that if I look into the mirror I would see eyes so unfathomable, so pained, that I would have done the same thing. "We're almost there. I'm sorry, I'm sorry," he apologizes.
The house door opens and I hear a gasp, "Oh, holy, umm, cow!" the word obviously does not have the power Ryan wants. "This way Bazzer." Ryan sounds nervous. Bazzer starts walking and I squeak in pain and he looks down with a worried look. Then I remember the Goddess's request and know that I have to survive. I have to do whatever it was she wants me to, and I have to meet the wolf.
"I'm so sorry," he apologizes again but keeps walking. He walks into Ryan’s emergency room equivalent and set me down on the bed. I groan as I touch the bed. "I’m so sorry."
"What happened?" Is it not obvious Ryan?
"Father, what did you think?" Exactly Bazzer!
"She was not kidding when she said she would be back here." He starts looking me over. "Why the hell did you move her when she was like this?"
"Sorry, Father was going to get up and I panicked. Could you have left her there when she was lying there making pained noises when Father was going to get up?"
"No, I guess not. Well you might want to do one of two options. One, if you have a cold hart, stay here and help me restrain her, or, two, leave, and get me one of our other brothers."
"Umm, I’ll get you someone else."
"Okay, but hurry." Bazzer runs off towards Tac’s house.
"I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to straighten your breaks once, probably Tac, he has the hardest hart, and likes you the least, but he still loves you, gets here." I squeak an affirmative.
Tac walks in, "Holy cow!"
"Bazzer just brought her over. Father did it."
"No kidding!"
"I need you to hold her while I set the breaks."
"Okay, I’ll do it. How do you want me to restrain her?"
"It’ll hurt her, but sit behind her, and cross your arms across her chest. Don’t let her jerk, 'K."
"Okay," he says as he lifts up my front and slide his feet on either side of me making black and white spots flash in front of my eyes. When he tightens his arms I almost pass out, it hurts so bad I cannot move. "Go."
Ryan pulls my leg strait and I try to pull out of Tac’s hold, but that hurts too. I have tears filling my eyes again when blackness comes.
I knew I had been passed out because Ryan is at my arm, and is putting a brace on it. The pain is so great I do not have words.

I have seven breaks. My left leg, right arm (good thing I’m left handed.) My jaw is broken, but I can talk, kind of, three of my ribs are broken, and my right pinky. If I stay fairly still I’m okay. I have Ham and Jack keeping me updated for school and there is always someone with me. Ham and his girl Sara are with me helping me write my paper for myths and legends. If I get it turned in soon I can still get full credit.
"Thus when the girl and the one who created her see each other they connect in such a way that they could not even think about leaving each other for someone else. Is that right?" I ask them, unbelievingly.
"Yah, that’s right. I would never even think about leaving Ham," Sara tells me at the same time Ham says, "Yes."
"How many words is that?"
"That is eighty-seven," Ham answers.
"Ugh, none of his reasons can possibly be correct!"
"Maybe, maybe not. They all sound good enough to me." Sara, Sara, Sara.
"Of course, they sound good to you! You’re his creation!"
"I know that."
"Well I am not bound to a boy that way!"
"Katya! You’re supposed to keep your heart-rate down!"
"Sorry, Ryan," I apologize to the man who just opened the door.
"Why don’t you take a break form that paper of yours?"
"Okay, I just can’t get over all of my teacher’s stupid ideas of why Goddess Girls don’t obey."
"They aren’t that bad, some of them might be true," Sara put in.
"Shh," Ham told her.
"Are you that stupid? Are you really that stupid?" I’ll strangle her if I get half a chance.
"Katya, just try to remember your reason, please, it isn’t her fault."
"I’m so sorry Ham, will you forgive me?" Tears are ready to fall down my face.
"Oh, Katya. Of course I forgive you! Don’t cry," he pleads.
"Your mood changes are brought out by the pain killers. It’s not your fault." Lilian is so good with people! I wish I was like her!
"Oh, Lilian, I wish I was more like you! You are someone to adore, unlike me."
"Oh, sweetheart, that is not true."
"What is your reason?" Ryan wonders aloud.
"This is a quote, minus most of the Spanish." Ham switches to falsetto, "'I think it is because they are superior and can see through ya'lls faces to your real self, can see how much of it is a lie, how much ya'll don't really know even though, she switched to Spanish, Sorry, Ham. It means 'ya'll think you know everything! Ya'll think you can cover up anything you don't like, but you ain't doin' a very good job! Because ya'll are so stupid!' As close to exact as possible. Sorry Ham, that includes you, but I also think that all ya'lls girls couldn't see it anyway, even if you try to let them see it, unless you really, in your souls, however corrupt they are, want them to, that they could see ya'lls desperfectos, sorry, flaws.'" He switches back, "Then Mr. Dot yelled at her."
"Wow, I never thought about it that way." Ryan exclaims.
"You’re a guy, what did you expect?" I ask.
"I've never thought about it that way either, but there is no flaws in Ryan."
"Lilian, you can only see the flaws if he wants you to because of your bond to him. That is one of the key points in my reason."
"Oh, you don’t want me to see your flaws?"
"I think I’m going to work on that, letting you see me," Ryan decided.
"You would do that for me?"
"I would move mountains for you."
"If you are going to go all sappy, please leave!" I beg.
"Sorry, I came in here to tell Ham and Sara to be careful when they leave. There is a wolf trying really hard to get inside. It hasn’t hurt anyone so I don’t want to kill it."
"Thanks for the warning, I’ll be careful," Ham thanks. "Well we need to be going anyway because I have a club meeting to go to." A wolf is trying to get in. What if it is the wolf? I have to see it! I have to know!
"Can I see the wolf?"
"What?" Ryan asks me, not believing what he just heard.
"Yes, I just asked if I can see the wolf."
"Are you serious?" Ham demands.
"Yes," I say calmly.
"No! At least until you can walk by yourself!" I sigh in disappointment. This is so NOT fair! I want to see the wolf!
"Okay, I give up! When do I get my casts off?"
"In two days I’ll check them, if you are OK then, I will take them off."
"Two days? Fine."

"That wolf is really persistent," states Cal.
"I know bro. Two days, nonstop!" Ryan sounds amazed.
"Two days?" I ask.
"Yes."
"Will you take off my casts now?"
"I'll check them," he amends. "You might want to hold her, Cal. I took out the pain killers and if any of her bones are still broken, she might try to jerk and that’ll hurt her more."
"Okay." Cal climes up onto the bed and holds me down. "I'm ready."
"Go," I tell him.
I’m alright until he gets to my arm. When he takes off the cast I whimper. Then he pulls it strait, not at all gentle, black dots cross my vision and I try to jerk but Cal is holding me and I try to stay silent with the pain.
"Your arm is not quite healed."
"No kidding," I say through gritted teeth.
"But other than that, you are Okay."
"Why the hell did you pull on it?" Cal wants to know.
"I had to teach her not to rush healing."
Cal looking into my tormented, watering eyes, asks, "Like that?"
"Probably not the nicest way," Ryan admits.
"Since I can walk, can I go see the wolf?" I ask as Ryan puts a new cast on.
"I know that there is no way we will be able to keep you from going out there, so, yes."



Chpt. 2 (Jakole)

"Yes," I say as I stand up. I’m a little wobbly, but I can walk.
"Wait," Ryan grabs my shoulder to stop me and I fall into him. "Sorry, just, I’m going with you?"
"Fine," as long as I get to go see it. Will this wolf be him? "Let’s go." I walk out of the room with Ryan and Cal on my heels. When I look out the window I see the wolf, it is sitting watching the door. It is beautiful, all sorts of browns and reds running together, turning it a beautiful red-brown color. Not like a red head, but bright red.
When I open the door it stands up. Cal and Ryan push in front of me; I push right back getting in front of them again. It runs forward, stopping five feet away staring at me. It is a boy. He looks into my eyes, catching my gaze.
~Katayla Lemo Hallers, you are mine!

I back up a step and bump into Cal.
~It is okay, the Goddess sent me here, and I am yours. Will you trust me?

I start to nod my head.
~No! Don’t let them know I can talk to you. It is a secret.


"Okay, he is beautiful." I try to tell him I trust him while making it look like I am talking to my brothers. "He is massive! He has to be at least five hundred pounds!"
"That’s what I said, I wonder why he ran up like that, and he has not let us come this close before," comments Ryan, "at
