I put the phone down and frustratingly sighed. Something was coming and we had no idea what was going on. I got up and changed into my regular clothes and started packing up my stuff.
Christina comes in with a glass of water then frowns when she sees me packing up my stuff. “What are you doing?”
"Packing my stuff.” Christina gave me the look. “I am fine.”
“You said that last time, remember? When you went to that building with Ryder where Sam was. You collapse." Christina said in a worried voice. She sat down and held my hand. "I saw what Sam and Ryder went through without each other. I don't want to feel that way too. I don't want to lose you."
I let my other hand rest on hers and my forehead touched hers. "I'm so
Riley Point of view *Flashback* "Samira," I caught the ball in my hand. It was just Ryder and me on the basketball court. This is usually where we meet up but the other two were held up by the teacher. "Who's Samira? Is that code name for Samantha?" "No, it's not. It just sounds familiar." Ryder said as I threw the ball back at him and he easily caught it. "And I told you I can't play basketball that well. I'm a football kind of type." "You're athletic and all you have to do is to throw a ball in the hoop." Ryder made a face. I laughed. “Come on. Practice makes perfect.” "I miss every time," he says. Probably because he wasn't trying. He just doesn’t know how to angle it right but when it comes
Xavier Point of view "Knock knock! Knock knock!" That wasn’t a knock nor someone talking. It was a ringtone coming from my phone. I didn’t remember changing my ringtone. Christina and I parted. The ringtone of my phone was changed into someone yelling knock knock in every annoying way as possible. I raised my eyebrow and looked at Christina for an explanation because she was the only person I told my new password to. She gave me a sheepish smile and laughed. "I was bored and your phone was the only thing here." I shook my head and chuckled as I reached for my phone. That ringtone reminded me of my birthday. *flashback on the morning of Xavier's birthday* "Knock knock! Knock knock!" I cursed out loud for that annoyin
Linda Point of view (when she came to Sam’s house) "I'm happy," I finally get to see Sam back home safe with Ryder. Even Ryder. He looks more relaxed when she is around. "I get to see them like this. How they used to be, you know. Calm and peaceful." *Flashback* (a few days after Sam was kidnapped) "Where is Ryder?" I asked. Riley and Christina looked at each other and then looked outside. We were in a car, driving towards Ryder’s house to see how he was doing and try to help him out. "He hasn't left the house. He's been calling the other packs for help but no one has seen or heard from her. Th
Lily Point of view I felt my heart beating back alive. Those years I have been trapped in that prison, felt like I was dead for years. It was like my own personal frozen hell. breathed in the fresh air that I so missed. I let the wind blow my hair away and I waited for my brothers to catch up. "You are pretty fast Lil' sis," Liam finally arrived and bent down to catch his breath. His twin brother followed behind him, out of breath, and chuckled at Liam. "Damn. She beat us, bro." I smiled as I studied their familiar faces. The joy rising up to my eyes as they began to tear up over the joy of having my family back. I miss them so much. We left Sam's pack territory because we felt the pack members being a bit uneasy and scared of having vampires
Xavier Point of View There isn’t an easy way of saying it. If it were someone else telling the story, I wouldn’t believe them either. I would have thought they were crazy but something was coming and we need all the help we can get. I started saying, "The person on the phone was someone who wanted to take Sam away.” Christina shakes her head not believing me. “You don’t mean-” “Sam’s kidnapper,” I confirmed. “I don't know exactly what his intentions are but all I know is that he is taking Sam back." I opened his back to pull out a piece of paper. "I received this letter 3 years ago. Three days after my parents' funeral." I passed it to Christina and she read it out loud. Xavier,
Samantha Point of view When I woke up, the house was completely empty. There was no sign of Ryder in the room. I tried calling out to him but silence only replied. I guess Ryder left before I woke up. I held my head with on hand trying to recall my last memory of my heat. My memory was a blur from but I wouldn't want to know what happened in my room. I blushed at the thought of it. I walked into the kitchen to get a glass of water. It was a struggle at first to find where everything was but I managed to get myself some water. After drinking, I set the glass on the sink and caught a glimpse of a book Xavier told me that was from my mom. I opened the book and saw a Spider-Man sticker on the first page. I smiled at it but I don't know why. I assumed because I just thought it was cute but there was something in my mind that recalled a f
Stranger's point of view "David, I'm getting a weird feeling," I told my husband. Liam and Leo were supposed to pick up Lily who is in the woods behind our house, playing 10 minutes ago. My husband pulled up his boots and walked to me. "Lena Don't worry, I'll check if the kids are alright." He said giving me a kiss on my forehead and left to find our kids in the woods behind our house. I sat there waiting for him, worried. The wind gave me shivers. I knew I should have brought a jacket earlier, I thought to myself. But I did not move but stared at the woods. I stood up not waiting for another minute and walked in the direction of my husband. I called out his name and stopped when I saw the back of David. "David-" my voice cracked when I saw a red color spr
Samantha Point of view I opened my eyes still screaming. I jumped back and hit the wall. I stared at the ground trying to breathe in. Trying to recall what I have seen. I look up, Mom was still there but her eyes were not glowing anymore. She waits until I said, "That... that- that wasn't my memory." Mom nodded. "Lena. David. David Carson. The body that was found was his. They never found Lena's body nor did they find their children but you did. You found their daughter, Lily, and her sons, Leo and Liam. The Carsons. They are the Carsons." "H-how? How did I see that? It was like I was there but I wasn't. But why all of a sudden? Why did I need to see that? Why did I need to know how they died? W-why? H-how?" Mom stared down at me. I sounded like a person out of her mind.
