Chapter 51
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

Hunter-“You think you are smart, don’t you?” The sound of a female voice rang out.I couldn’t see the female, but I knew who it was. For months I have been playing her game, trying to get her to think that I was going to agree to her terms. I had made myself go crazy from it also.There were days that maybe I thought I really did cave. Keeping my act and reality separate became more and more difficult as the days seemed to run together. She wanted my loyalty, which I would never give her, but when I had decided to play along in a sense, I realized it was a bad idea.I have found myself on occasions believing the words I spoke as I tried to convince her she was getting inside my head. The last time she had been here I had even offered my body to her. Thankfully she had turned it down.I hated that I was lowering myself to keep up this act. Nothing else I have tried to get free was working. The more time that passed the more

Hunter-“What do you want with Caleb?” I asked, while I was trying to think of a way out of this.“I want him gone.” She stated.“Why? What does Caleb have to do with you?” I asked.“Because he is an unknown entity that I don’t like. For some reason, since he has returned to Kyra, his future is unknown to my sisters. When one possesses the powers of a God but isn’t a God, it is troublesome for us. He is not held down by the same laws that we are, which makes him a danger to us all.” She said as if she was becoming bored with the conversation already.“What do you mean?” I inquired, my mind trying to make sense of everything.She went on to tell me about Cronus and her father, as well as what all happened for her father to become the God that we all knew. She explained that along the line, Cronus had slept with many others and created many children. Along those children w

Kyra-Sleeping in the guest room wasn’t turning out the way I thought it would. I wasn’t sure how long I laid in bed, but I couldn’t fall asleep. Nothing I have tried has worked.For probably the millionth time, I tossed and turned until I was laying on my right side. I don’t know why, but I couldn’t get my mind to settle. It wasn’t that I was thinking about anything in particular either.Sighing, I reached for my phone. Idly, I scrolled through my phone looking for something to do. Checking the time, I figured everyone was probably asleep except for whoever was on patrol currently.I couldn’t bother them since they were tasked with keeping alert, even though I was sure none of them would mind if I bothered them. I looked through the games on my phone I had, which weren’t many, but none seemed appealing.Not wanting to bother anyone, I thought about going to my art studio to work on a painting I was d
