The girls and Bella had physical education that morning and the coach decided that making them run laps in the hot eighty-six-degree sun had been the way to go. So Bella had put on her PE uniform, the black shorts and the white tee shirt. Setting off on her laps, she was soon swarmed by the girls who got behind her and kept stepping on the backs of her shoes, trying to trip her.
Spurred on, she ran as hard and fast as she could to get away from them, exerting herself to the point of exhaustion. At one point the girls caught up to her and messed with her some more, which resulted in her tripping and falling, scraping her knees and palms on the asphalt. <

Well, that went well. Adam smacks the kitchen counter angrily as he swears. “Damn it!” Adam had not meant to act like an ass and anger her. He had just let his stupid jealousy get the better of him. Then when he had felt such a monumental sense of relief at Jake being a fictional character, he had tried to hide it by making an off-hand comment. He had no way of knowing that it would set her off and he still did not fully understand the blazing anger she had directed at him, but he still felt bad for setting her off.

Bella was dressed and sitting on the bed, waiting for Adam to come in with the food. She had agreed to have supper with him, confused by the question. They had just eaten breakfast together when he had asked, so she was not sure why he was treating that meal differently. She had wanted to ask Lumi earlier when he had come in for just a moment to give her a hug, but he had left quickly, telling her that Adam was sending him and Cole on a mission. Chad had come in and hung out with her for a while, playing Minecraft on the Xbox with her for about an hour, but she knew a seven-year-old was not likely to have the answers she sought.

The room is huge. Royal blue and cream colors are offset by the dark wood and the gold. The large arched windows line the far wall, offering a look out at the dark trees surrounding the house. In the middle of the room is a large wooden table with what seems like a hundred chairs around it, but is really only fourteen chairs. Six on each side and one at each end. The table is dark wood, with a royal blue runner down the middle of the table. In the middle is a gold and blue vase filled with cream roses. At six places there are blue and cream china plates with gold trimming on the edges. The utensils are gold and the drinks are se

Adam woke her up and told her to get dressed, so Bella is now tugging on a pair of black yoga pants and an old faded t-shirt that she has. It is one of her favorites. It depicts Michael Myers holding a knife and beneath it, in a bloody text it says “A real man will chase you”. Adam's lips crook up at the corners when she opens the door and finds him on the other side. “Nice shirt.”Bella rolls her eyes and laughs. “So, I am dressed. What's up?”“Well, Mrs. Potter had to go out for the morning, so I am watching Chad for her. He wants you, of course. You have charmed him beyond measure, you know.”“I am just as smitten with him,” Bella confesses and Adam smiles.“Well, I hope you love him enough to make this cake that he has been talking about all morning,” Adam says and Bella laughs again.“My chocolate cake?” “That would be the one,” Adam confirms. Bella agrees to make it and Adam nods. “Okay. I will show you to the kitchen.” Taking her hand in his lik

Bella was in the kitchen making herself a peppermint tea and Chad a glass of hot chocolate when she heard the commotion. The sound of doors slamming and stomping feet. Bella is worried but trying not to show it. Adam has her tasked with distracting Chad. She figures that it has something to do with the fact that Mr. Potter was expected home hours ago. It is running on supper time and no one has heard from her. “Bella?” When she hears Chad's little voice she looks over at him to find him standing there with tears brimming in his eyes. “Are you okay, honey?”

“Aaaagggghhhhhh!” Bella screams as loud as she possibly can. The creature startled her, but more than that, there is something so menacing about the creature. The creature is not like any animal that she has seen before. It is larger than her by far and it has an almost human-like face, but it is also animalistic. And terrifying. With a deep, vicious growl the animal bares its teeth at her. Bella lifts a hand to try to ward it off. “Oh my God... stay back!” “Bella!” Adam shouts from

Adam watches Bella as he says the words. He watches as they register with her, as they sink in. But he does not see surprise in her eyes, as if she had already known what he was. What kills him is seeing the fear in her eyes. He hates that she is scared of him again when he had tried so hard to let him see the softer side of him. Adam had tried to erase the fear that he had first inspired in her. Although, he would rather see fear than repulsion. Adam had always known that Bella would have to be told what he was. THat she would need to know or that she would find out. He knew that realistically he could not keep it a

Bella is sound asleep, once again lying less than five feet away. Only this time she feels so much further away. Even though she asked him to stay with them, he knows it was not because she wanted him around. It was because Chad had wanted the security of having his alpha beside him should there be another attack. As for Bella, she would not do anything to upset the child. Had Chad asked her to walk through fire for him, Adam had not a doubt in his mind that she would have done it. He might not know everything about her, but he does know that if she loves a person, there is not anything that she would not do for them.

Greer sits up in bed, gasping for breath. Liam is beside her whispering, “Shh... shh.. it's okay, baby, it was just a nightmare.” Greer looks around, seeing the children safe beside her, before she looks at Liam, beside her in nothing but his boxers. Lyle isn't here and neither is Shera. It was just a dream. She is breathing heavy from fear but she is trying to calm herself down. Liam wraps his arms around her and pulls her into his warm, bare chest. Hunter is against the wall like always and Gemma is in the middle between them. Greer picks the baby up into her arms and moves her over so that she and Liam can lay down. She looked at him, “Lie with me, please.” He nods his head and adjusts himself on the bed, so that he is laying down beside of her. She lays back in his arms with her head in the crook of his shoulder. Her breath fans his chest. Gemma is beside Hunter, sleeping peacefully, so Greer turns over to face Liam. Her hand is resting on his flat stomach, her legs tangle

“What?” “You heard me. Do you want to stay here with me forever?” Liam asks her needing to know if that is something she can even imagine before he tells her everything. “I, um-” “Yes or no, baby. There is no right or wrong answer here.” Liam says. “If you want us to-” Greer knows the exact answer that she wants to give him she just does not think that she is brave enough. She has never been one that can just put herself out there. She always has to hold a little of herself back so that if she gets hurt, at least it isn't every part of her that gets damaged. She still has something to go on. But Liam is asking her for everything. If she answers him truthfully then she will be handing him her whole heart. And that terrifies her. “This is not about what I want, Greer. This is about what you want. You are the only one that gets to make decisions for you and the children. I will not try to pressure you into anything you don't want. If you don't want to stay forever, that does not

Time flies by as they sat there, playing together as, well, a family. They weren't a family though, he has to keep telling himself. He glances at his watch, “It's time for us to get ready. I'll watch the kids while you take a shower.” Greer nods and leaves the room. He looks at Hunter playing with the toys and the little boy looks back at him with a smile. Liam smiles back at the kid. The boy just needs positive male attention. Somebody with a Y chromosome to love him instead of scare him. Greer had done her best, but how could a teenager be expected to raise a child in a small bedroom, without any form of help? He looks at Hunter, then at Gemma in his lap and was, not for the first time, totally in awe of Greer. Greer was a survivor, there was no doubting that. She could handle anything life threw at her and clearly come out on top. He knows that she is scared of Lyle. She is worried about him and Shera showing up, but Brody wants her to have faith in him. Could she trust him t

Greer wakes up a few hours later when it is still very early morning. Now is the perfect time to go while the baby is still asleep. She was beginning to sleep through the night, not wanting bottles at all hours. Greer figures that the routine and stability that they found in this pack house contributed greatly to that but she pushes that thought away. Yeah, life is good here but they will just have to make a better life somewhere else, she tells herself. Greer rolls out of the bed, trying not to disturb the children. She doesn't want to wake them until they are leaving. She goes to the armoire, pulling out the bags she had carried her stuff in before. She opens it and begins stuffing clothes in it. She pulls out the stroller and props it against the bed. She stuffs all the baby's sleepers in there and Hunter's clothes as well before she grabs her warm shirts. She looks at the dresses Liam had bought; he had given them to her as a surprise a few days ago. Greer feels like crying.

They about their day and she tries her best to act normally. Tomorrow afternoon is when Belinda was due to return and Greer has made up her mind that she is leaving in the morning. Maybe with her gone, they will choose to let Belinda keep thinking that she was dead. If she has finally made her peace with it, then there is no use upsetting the apple cart now. She knows that Hunter will be so upset. He loves Liam and the house; loves what seemed like a real home and family. Yet, it isn't their home and they aren't a part of Liam's family. It will be horrible leaving, especially since she is pretty sure that she had fallen in love with Liam. But she has to go. She kept to herself as Liam's family was there. She talked and was polite, but any chance she got to excuse herself for a moment, she took it. She went to the bathroom five times while they were there, just because she needed to take a breath and to tell herself that she was not part of them. Even if they made her feel like s

It does not take them long to go through the store and get everything on Adam's list. Within twenty minutes they are finished and back in his truck. Ten minutes of shopping and ten minutes of him talking to the beautiful girl that stopped him at the door. Greer figures that she was a girlfriend before and wants to be again, judging by all the possessive 'hands off, he belongs to me' looks that the girl was giving her. Greer has questions about her but she does not ask them. She has no right to. After Liam says goodbye to the girl, they go to the truck. Greer feels good because the whole time they were talking to the obviously interested girl, Liam never left her out. He kept his hand on her back the whole time, he included her in the conversation by asking her questions about whatever subject they were discussing. But her favorite part was when he had slung his arm around her shoulders and said, “Come on, honey. We have to get back to the kids. Dad and Hunter will be driving Mom

Greer watches Liam as he cuddles Gemma close and kisses her hair. He carries her to his mom, handing her over when Bella holds out her arms. Adam comes over to inform Liam that the whole family is coming over for supper and that he needs them to run to the store in town and pick up a few things. Adam turns to Greer, “I need you to ride with him and make sure he gets everything. Don't worry about to kiddos, they are fine here. We will take good care of them. Becca should be home in a few minutes, she just went to visit some friends that she missed while we were gone but when she gets back, she will drag out all kinds of toys for him. She goes crazy over kids.” Greer smiles at the alpha, but inside she is very aprehensive about leaving the children with anyone but especially people they don't know. Yet about the time that she opens her mouth to decline is the same time that Hunter comes over to Adam and tugs on his shirt. “Yeah, buddy?” Adam asks the child with a big smile. “Liam

Greer improves substantially over the next week and a half. Liam makes her take her medicines on time and keeps a drink constantly in front of her, forcing her to drink. Eventually her werewolf healing must have been slighly activated by being in a pack and with his burgeoning alpha aura, because she is healed completely and she has more strength than she ever has before. Besides all that, her senses are sharper. Each day she can see and hear better than before. Ebony had filed the petition with the human courtsand they were suppose to hear something today. Ebony was confident in the ruling though. Greer not so much. If she wasn't granted guardianship then Shera could come and get the kids whenever she wanted. Greer knows herself well enough to know that she'd do something desperately crazy before she let Lyle and Shera get the kids. Not wanting to dwell on it, she had tried to keep her mind off the ruling for the last few days. It only worked about thirty-seven point two percent

The boy had heard the man's steps on the landing, so he invited him into the room. Liam enters the room, clearly about to say something, but just then he sees her and he just stops in the doorway where he proceeds to stare at her with his mouth ajar. Once he seems to realize that he is standing their like an imbecile with his mouth hanging open, he shakes himself, “I'm sorry. I didn't know you were, um, not dressed.” “It's quite alright. You were invited into the room,” Greer shoots Hunter a mock glare, then smiles at him as the little boy grins at her, unabashed. Liam watches the by-play between the siblings but he can not focus on the exchange. The only thing on his mind is how the sigh of her has caught his attention. Greer stands beside the shower with only a damp towel covering her. Liam watches as drops of water cut paths across her skin and he wishes that he could replace that drop of liquid with his finger tips. That the soft pads of his fingers could brush her skin in
