Chapter 48
Kyra
The moment the sun rose, I dreaded getting out of bed. I knew I was going to have to face the day, or rather my phone, which I wasn’t looking forward to. I had set a ring tone specifically for Caleb, so I knew when he texted or tried to call.
Since I had a habit of looking at my phone without paying attention to who it was, I wanted to know when it was Caleb. It wasn’t that I wasn’t wanting to talk to him exactly, in fact, I kind of did. Even if I didn’t care to admit it to anyone, I did miss talking to him.
When I heard the ringtone go off in the middle of the night, I had been tempted to look at it right then. Instead, I ignored it, so that way my mind wasn’t fogged over from being tired. The temptation to respond to him, see him even, has been weighing on me.
Melanie told me to hold off until I had a better understanding of what I wanted. The only thing I knew, was what I didn’t want. I didn’t want to lose

Kyra-As Caleb had told me in his last text message, it was his last attempt to communicate with me. It has been two weeks since then. Not once have I heard from him or even seen him. True to his word, he had moved out of the packhouse.I was still a mess, not knowing what I was wanting, but I couldn’t take it anymore. I have spent years wishing Caleb was back home. Now that he was, I was the one pushing him away.I had told Mel that today I was going to move back into my room, as well as convince Caleb to come back home. She had mentioned she didn’t think it was a good idea, since it was probably only going to confuse me further.It was more than likely true, but at the same time, I couldn’t stand the idea of Caleb not being home. I had found out he was staying at Rex’s and Samantha’s house. He has come to the packhouse to use his office.Other than that, he stays in his office and was now the one avoiding me. His doo

Caleb-The moment Kyra’s name popped up on the screen of my phone, I wasn’t sure what to do. I have just gotten to the point where I felt that I would be fine with the way things were between us. I may be deluding myself.Up until this moment, I had come to accept that Kyra and I were not going to happen. Looking at my phone, I wasn’t sure if I should answer it. For the first time in two weeks, my mind was at ease.I had spent so much time with Rex, drinking myself into a stupor. He had been a major distraction for me. Yes, we talked about Kyra, or rather, I talked, he listened. It had helped though to have someone to talk to about it.In a way, just being able to talk to him helped me come to terms with everything. Now as I looked at her name, I wasn’t sure what to do. If I didn’t answer it, I could continue with what I was doing so I could fully move on.Just because I felt better, didn’t mean I was completely

Kyra-From the moment I got off the phone with Caleb, I have been buzzing with excitement. I am starting to think that maybe I have been thinking about everything all wrong. If I had an issue with Caleb, I wouldn’t be this excited that he was moving back into the packhouse.Going to bed last night had been a struggle. For hours I tossed and turned. I ended up staying in Caleb’s room last night since I hadn’t been able to bring myself to stay in my room last night.Not that I hadn’t tried, since I had stood outside my room for nearly an hour. In the end, I decided I would do it tonight since I had told Caleb he could have his room tonight. Maybe it won’t be so difficult with Caleb staying right next door.“He is coming back here?” Mel’s voice rang out the moment I stepped out of the room.It was still early in the morning, I haven’t even had a chance to get some breakfast. Yet here she was standi

Caleb-I tried to not get my hopes up as I was walking out of my office. Last night when I was with Rex, I had been in a funk. After the first night of trying the Wolf Tonic and drinking myself into a stupor, I learned to pace myself a bit more.When I ordered the drink last night though, I had just sat there spinning the glass around. Usually, Rex and I had a good time, even talked a lot. Except for last night, I had just sat there trying to process everything.Rex hadn’t pressed what was bothering me, although I did tell him. We have gotten to the point that we now understood each other. He seemed to understand I just needed to deal with it on my own, which I had appreciated.I came to the conclusion that I needed to not try to think about things with Kyra. What I needed to do was just remind myself of what happened last time. I was going to go at Kyra’s pace and try not to overthink anything.Reaching the front door, I paused before

Caleb-I wasn’t sure how to respond to her. Could what she be saying be true or was it that she was afraid of losing me. I wanted her words to be true.“Did you hear me?” Kyra asks when I had yet to respond.“I heard you,” I told her.I stepped away from her, needing to put space between us. If what she was saying was true and she truly meant what she was saying, then I was about to get everything I dreamed about. Could it be that she didn’t truly know what she wanted?I felt as if I needed to be careful with how I responded. Why was it that just when she said the very words I have dreamed of hearing, I was filled with disbelief? Looking at her, she appeared to still be trying to grasp what she just revealed.“Why?” I questioned.“Why what?” She responded, her brows pulled together.“Actually, never mind.” I said, as soon as I realized how stupid it was for

Kyra-Shortly after entering my small library, Caleb and I both sat down on the large bean bag I had still sitting in the middle of the room. I grabbed the book I had found, that told a little bit about the history of Caleb’s bloodline. It had helped that my mother was able to get the name of his ancestor for me.“I am still looking for more, but I found some information about your great, great, great, great, great grandfather. According to this, your bloodline stems from the beginning. His name was Cronus, he was the god of time. He overthrew his father, Uranus, but it is unclear as to why. There is speculation that it was at his mother’s request. There was a prophecy about one of his sons were going to overcome him, so he ended up eating them.” I paused after saying that, as I felt the urge to vomit.It didn’t last long though. As soon as the feeling passed, I continued. As disgusting as this all was, it was also fascinating. It a

Caleb-“What is it?” I asked, my mind was whirling with multiple scenarios.“Apparently the curse was already broken. I mean, I remembered seeing something about breaking the curse, but I had just skimmed over it. Originally there had been a curse placed, but it was broken years later. It doesn’t say much about how it was broken.” Kyra spoke.Frown lines started to appear on her beautiful face. Seeing her getting worked up over my situation, made me realize just how much she did care about me. I almost wanted to tell her not to worry about it, since I didn’t want to cause her stress.I wanted to know more about my history, but at what cost? The more I learned, the more I didn’t understand. What she was telling me made sense, but it also confused me to no end. I just had more unanswered questions in a way.The worst part of it all was that I didn’t even know what questions I was supposed to ask. All I

Kyra-I let Caleb lead me up the stairs, even though I had no idea what he was planning. Oddly enough, things just felt natural with him, after I put down my defenses that is. For a moment I thought he was taking me to his room.When we stopped just next to the door that led to my room, I stared at the door. I still couldn’t bring myself to enter the room, even with Caleb standing next to me. Looking over at Caleb, he was watching me carefully.“What are we doing here?” I asked.“I have noticed you still haven’t gone in the room. If we are going to give this a real go, you need to face it.” Caleb said, his gaze drilling into me as if he was seeing into my soul.“What makes you think I haven’t been in the room? You haven’t been here for two weeks.” I defended myself.It wasn’t that I wanted to get defensive, I just hated that he called me out on it so easily. Was I really that
