Dear Sam,
Did you forget about me? Can't say I'm surprised. You weird pack people do tend to forget about your awesome, history-defying she-wolf.
How's the little one? I'm so jealous of you and Emily. You know how I used to pitch fits when I was little? That's how I reacted to your happy news.
Would you believe me if I told you I'm not a bitch anymore? Ha, tell that to both packs and videotape the reaction. For me.
This whole "running away" thing has really been good for me. I actually smile and laugh now. I've forgotten what it feels like to laugh. Smiling seems so unnatural now.
I think I'll come home within the next few months. Maybe.
Love you always,
Lee-Lee
Yes! She was coming home! Finally. Everybody but Paul misses her. Seth won't stop bugging Jake, and by default, Jake won't stop bugging me. It sucks, but hey. An Alpha's gotta do what an Alpha's gotta do.
Emily was feeding my son, and she looked up at me curiously.
"She's coming home in a few months." That was all I needed to say. Emily's grin lit up her half perfect face. I still felt bad about that.
