Adam POV
I wake up to Max howling in my head, "Wake up! Time to go meet mate!" I smile and say, "Today is the day. Why do I have a bad feeling?" Max says, "maybe because she is too good for us? Maybe because your dad is being a dickwad? Could be any number of things. Let's get up and try though. At the very least we get to look forward to seeing her up-close and personal in that leather outfit".
I get out of bed, already hard thinking about the outfit. "Good grief, Max, you couldn't wait to put that image in my head?" Max rolls his eyes, "Sorry dude. Sucks to be you right now". I force myself to think of boring things while I brush my teeth and get dressed for the day. I walk downstairs intending to just grab an apple for breakfast, but my dad is si
Please don't forget to rate my book and tell me how I'm doing. I appreciate all constructive criticism.
We walk into the gas station and Kayla says, "Pick your poison. I'm buying, birthday girl". I think pure chocolate is the best thing for me, so I grab a king size chocolate bar nothing else in it... just straight chocolate. Kayla looks at it and says, "You got it. I just hope you don't make yourself sick before the fun tonight." I shake my head as I wait for her to pay for it and say, "Not going to happen. I plan on trying to make this last all day". She laughs and we go to school. As soon as we walk into the school, everyone starts stepping around us. As we are walking down the hall to our lockers, it's looking like waves parting. I look at Kayla with confusion and she says, "The humans must've heard about us last night." I look around and say, "Oh well. I really don't care. It'll blow over". Just them I look up and see balloons. I get to my locker, and I have a huge sign on my locker that reads, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BITCH! TODAY YOU DIE! I pull down the balloons and the
Adam POV Goddess it killed me to reject her. It made it even worse to hear her say she was expecting it and that no one wanted her. It also made me so mad at my dad, all I could see was red. Even Max was on the verge of taking over. I couldn't let that happen. I had to go talk to my dad. I was on my way home when I got a text from Abby. It was a picture of a sign that said, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY BITCH. TODAY YOU DIE!" I knew who put it on her locker. If she didn't do it, she had someone do it. That's fine. Just one more thing I can show my dad. I had just gotten in my front door, when I got another text. This one from Kayla. It was a video of Dina trying to attack Abby with a hammer and Abby kicking her ass. I was so proud of her. We may not have that m
We just left St. Louis two hours ago and we are already at the school. It only took 20 minutes to get to Little Rock airport. When we got to the terminal, we saw signs with our fake names being held up. I walked up to him and said, "Cousin Gabriel?' He immediately wrapped his arms around me in a bear hug, "Thank Goddess you made it! I was so worried," then he looked at Kayla and said, "It's okay to relax now. We can protect her together. I have a car waiting. Do you have luggage to pick up"? We each held up a bag and I said, "No. We had to pack just the essentials. We are going to need to stop for some clothes for the next couple days until we can go shopping for a few more outfits". "Good," Gabriel said, "It's not good to continue hanging around here. Alpha Dakari can be ruthless when he wants to find someone bad enough". Kayla and I looked at each other in a panic. Gabriel shook his head and said, "don't worry. Your families are covered. We had our IT techs send each
I started to call my dad's usual number, then remembered that they both have new phones with new numbers. Gabriel added all the new numbers to mine and Kayla's phones, and I called my dad. M: "Hey dad! We just got to the pack lands. It's beautiful here"! D: "Honey, you may need to stay there a while. Dakari is going ape shit. He nearly killed Adam because he rejected you. I think he's pissed that he can't find where you went". M: "That makes no sense! Adam told me that he didn't want to reject me, but his dad was making him". D: "I know. Adam is in the pack hospital and your mother is taking care of him. Adam is telling your mother to tell you that you won't be safe here until his dad steps down or dies". M: "He's not planning on killing his dad, is he?" D: "He's not planning it, but the time may come when he has to defend himself". M: "Okay. Well, I guess that's all he can do if he wants the pack's loyalty when he takes
Abby POV "Abby! Concentrate! You need to master levitation before we can go any farther". That's my trainer, Zayna. She is an amazing trainer, but she doesn't have much of a sense of humor. I have now been here two months and I am loving this life. It can be super frustrating at times, like now. I'm trying to levitate a huge boulder over eight feet in the air. To add to my motivation, she has Kayla standing less than 1 foot next to it. I have already almost landed the boulder on top of her a couple times. Now, as a way to relieve some of my stress, I laugh. It happens all the time. It started out with small giggles, but Kayla heard it and started trying to hold in a laugh, so now we are both doubled over in laughter. Zayna finally lets up, "you two are go
After we finished training for the day, Kayla and I went to our rooms with a plan on meeting in an hour. After my shower, I felt so sleepy, I felt like I couldn't keep my eyes open. I laid down on my bed and fell asleep immediately. As soon as I was asleep, the Moon Goddess appeared before me. I immediately smiled and asked her, "Is there ever going to be a time when I see you with my eyes open?" She laughed and said, "There might be, depending on the choices you make in the future". I almost got excited about that when she says, "I know Gabriel told you that you will be shifting tonight. Yara has been begging me to let you shift since you got there," she laughed, "I came to let you know what to expect and to bring some news". "This shift will not be as painful as your first shift," she continued, "Your body remembers the arrangement now. You will have mild pain, but it won't be as bad. You and Kayla will not need to worry about shredding your clothes either. Both of your wo
After five months of being here in Cold Springs Pack, Kayla and I had learned all of our powers and Zayna told us there will be more, but those would come when we need them. She said that all we needed to do is keep practicing with them now. Yara grinned, "should we practice on the warriors?" Freyja heard this and laughed, making Kayla and I laugh hysterically. Zayna looked at us suspiciously and said, "What's so funny?" I said, "Yara wants to practice on the warriors!" Zayna laughed, "They are training right now. You could practice levitation. Just try not to hurt them". Kayla and I ran to the training grounds and stood behind them. The pack Gamma, Josh, was smiling at us. Apparently, Zayna linked him and told him what we were going to do. He nodded and Kayla and I slowly raised our hands as all the warriors left the ground and levitated until they were 10 feet in the air before Zayna told us to stop. They had all been concentrating on sparring until one of th
It has only been a month since the announcement was made, but Kayla and I are feeling more and more like this is our pack. We love everyone here and they love us in return. Our warriors have learned a lot of new techniques for fighting, and Gamma Josh has been having them practice, with us trying to stump them with magic. At one point, I used my powers to split the earth shallowly beneath them, and they learned a technique for using that to their advantage. As time went on, Kayla and I could feel our strength growing. We are now able to use our magic all day and feel exhausted at the end of the day. We can also tell that the strength of our magic has grown exponentially. I was able to throw lightning at a boulder as big as an SUV and it exploded into pebbles. Gabriel laughed at that and said, "Well, we needed some more gravel for the driveway. Feel like doing a couple more?" I laughed and said, "sure," and I struck three more. I am now in the rose garden with Kayla,
