I woke up trembling quickly searching my mind for Leah.“Did you see my dream?” I asked not knowing if she would be present for it.“I did,” she replied her echoed fear filling my head. “What are we supposed to do? I don’t know that we are strong enough to face such a strong pack.”I was feeling the same, it would be a lot to take on if we went today. On top of being hunted by a ruthless Alpha, I wouldn’t be able to stay here. I would have to tell my family the truth tonight and I had no idea how to do that. I felt stuck, wanting to know more but fearing what it would take to learn it. “Where would we go Leah? If we go and Eli learns we are alive, my family and friends won’t be safe with us here. I won't drag them into this.” “Maybe we could stay with Kent's pack. They might be able to help us.” Leah said her voice holding an edge of delight at the idea of staying near Kent.“Maybe, I need to talk to him before I make a dec

I thought of a thousand things I could say to this woman from thank you for saving my life to asking how she got into my dreams and yet the only question that came rushing out of my mouth was:“Does this mean Eli knows I am alive? Will my family be safe?” The smallest smile crossed her face.“I see you’re right down to business. Eli will feel your power now but it will take time for him to know what it is and to track you down. I'll make sure your family stays safe but as you probably already guessed, it is best if you say goodbye tonight.” “We've already arranged for Sarah to return with us tonight,” Kent said looking between Richard and Freya. They both nodded in agreement.“While we waited for you, Freya and I worked out a defense plan that should help keep you safe from Eli's men while you are staying with the pack. She will come back with me to set up the spells while you return home to pack. For now, we have some questions

As we entered the house, I could see Mom at the stove preparing dinner.“Hey, sorry I’m late. Mom, this is my friend Kent.” I said guiding him into the kitchen.“Oh hello. It’s nice to… uhm meet you Kent.” mom said as she turned around. As soon as her eyes fell on Kent, I could hear the shock in her voice. The look she gave me made it clear she hadn’t expected him to be older or it could’ve been the anger that filled his eyes as they fell on Seth who was standing in the doorway to the living room.As he allowed his eyes to travel back to my mom and away from Seth, I could noticeably see them soften.“It’s a pleasure to meet you ma'am.” Kent replied still with a small edge of anger in his voice.Dad walked in the kitchen around Seth, who was staring intently at Kent, and introduced himself in much the same manner as my mom.“Hi, I’m Leo Sarah’s Dad. How did you two met if you don’t mind me asking?”“At Panic! when we went for my birthday last

I could see the sunlight filling the room even through my closed eyelids. I had no desire to wake up, but daylight was reminding me that the day was waiting. Slowly, I opened my eyes and took in my environment. It was a second before I remembered where I was and finally why. Remembering Kent’s warmth, I looked beside me. The place that had once held his body lay empty and I felt a small sinking in my heart. As much as I tried to deny it, I missed him and wanted him to be here.Grudgingly, I got up from the bed and walked to the dresser Kent had rummaged through to get pjs for me. I opened every drawer finding a lot of jeans and t-shirts that all appeared to be in my size. I found  one whole drawer full of undergarments. Most of the underwear was basic boy shorts but a few were lacey little things that brought a small blush to my face. I never bought my self anything like that knowing I had no one to wear it for. Now the idea of wearing these delicate materials in front of Ke

I was surprised when, instead of leading me through the same hidden door towards the endless hall, Kent turned to the wall in the back of the living room. It took a second but right before he reached for it, I saw the same oval outline that I had before. I remembered Kent had told me there were more secret passageways so I figured this was just leading to another unseen section of his house. It didn’t. This door was much more intense that the first. Before sliding open, a number of locks could be heard turning and once it did, thick steel bars could be seen within the foot wide door. On the other side, was the yard leading to the training center we had gone to a few days before. Thinking back, it seemed like it was weeks ago not merely three days.We walked out into the yard but instead of heading towards the door we had gone to before, we headed to a different door at the far end of the building. The door lead to a room with a single long table surrounded by at least thirty chai
