~Avery~I was still in Amber's room, lying on her bed and staring pointlessly up at the ceiling. Amber had gone off to find Raven about some matter that she didn’t want to talk about. She said that she needed to do it alone and I was glad, I still didn’t feel like facing everyone. The second I left this room and someone saw me, I knew they’d want to talk and I wasn't ready for it. I had nothing to say to them yet but I hoped that I would one day. I just needed to find the words and figure out what I was feeling.My hands were laying on my bump, slowly caressing the surface. I dipped down into the mattress and felt it tightening around my body, I knew that getting up would be a mission.Slowly, my eyes began to drift and I felt my body relaxing. It was as though I had no control over it, I couldn’t stay awake, I couldn’t force my eyes open. So instead, I let my mind shut down and I drifted off into a deep sleep.The walls around me were a bright pearl-white color, and the floor and c

~Avery~“How can you say that?” I was yelling, unable to hide the rage that was stirring within me.“You’re not the victim, you’re the one that they have been bending over backward to protect. Did they go about it the right way? Maybe not. But Alex is heartbroken, thinking he’s lost you forever and blaming both himself and his brother for it. Natasha and James are guilt-ridden, the Alpha is failing in his duties and has been for quite some time because his main focus has been you. You’re not the victim. They have set aside any and all other obligations to try and help you reach your fullest potential so that the day that hundreds of people come to kill you, you will be able to defend yourself. The pack members are suffering from a lack of leadership, but you haven’t seen that. You’ve seen their smiles, and the happiness they display, but you haven’t seen the anxiety that befalls them once the door is closed and they are with their loved ones. You have seen what they wanted you to see

“I know of a book that might have some information about your mate bond and how it works, it’s at the library back home. Once this is over, I will go and get it and see what I can find.” Natasha said and my eyes lit up. A book that might give us the answers we need.“Go back and be with Avery but don’t tell her about the book, I don’t want her to worry about this too.”“Excuse me?” I yelled.“You son of a bitch!” I continued, wishing she could see and hear me right now.“Though she’s a daughter of one, not a son,” Crow said, looking absolutely serious. I stared at Crow in disbelief but scoffed and shook my head.“How much are they hiding from me?” I asked him.“They’re not hiding anything, they’re withholding information. There’s a difference.” Crow said. I turned around and faced him. A look of disbelief was plastered on my face, whatever he said seemed to leave me in the same state. “Are you serious?” I asked him and he nodded his head. I had no words…“But if this was a memory,

~Avery~”I don’t get it. So whoever this person is, has hands-on experience with vampires. But she or he could see their end? How can anyone for-see the future?” I asked in shock as I read over the words one more time. Lydia was weirdly quiet, she looked to be thinking about something, trying to make sense of this but there was more behind her eyes. She was shaking her head and her lips were moving silently. ”Lydia?””I have no idea, let’s continue reading,” she said and flipped the page. This one had the crown symbol on the bottom left corner.”The embodiment of regal poise. The queen to rule over endless pain who shall meet her faith in the hands of trust. For no one creature is truly immortal, a balance must be made, a life for another or two on the hands of each other a balance will be restored, peace will be set free again.””Are they talking about-””Raven,” Lydia answered.No one is immortal, everyone can be killed.But killed in the hands of trust, two killed by each other.

~Amber~”A girl who will protect her family, and those she loves, from harm. She will reach her full potential, she will fight, and she will win,” she said with a sad smile. ”Avery…” I said quietly. I wanted her to stop talking. I didn't like where this was going. ”A girl who's mate was never meant for her. Their forever had already been decided to not last very long. A love that been bound and sealed, a love that will fade with time unless they pay what they owe.””Your marriage…” I breathed out. ”A girl who will win a war, beloved by her family and her mate,” ”Please stop,” I said. ”About a girl who is not meant to survive the war she wins. For she must fall for the others to live,” Avery whispered.”Why?” I asked her. I felt how angry I was getting and I needed to control myself. ”I was never meant to live a long life, Amber. I was born with a purpose, I was born to kill the queen and give my life to make sure that those I love are safe. I am meant to kill Raven,” she said.

~Avery~”It’s in my blood. My great-grandmother could foresee the future and different events that would occur, my mother could too. This ability goes back centuries and generations. My grandmother would tell me stories about our family, many of the women were burned or tossed in the lake with bound hands and legs because they were thought to be witches. One of my relatives, she had foreseen an attack on the village where she lived and she tried to tell the elders, those who were in charge but they saw her premonition as nothing but witchcraft and sentenced her to death.” I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Could Jaspers ancestors have been the ones who wrote the book?”How do your family know all of this?” I asked him. ”A lot of them wrote things down in books so that their premonitions would live on even after they were dead. It was almost compulsive, whatever they saw or heard they had to write down so the information wouldn't get lost. And the woman who tried to save her vill

~Avery~Jasper had gone off to practice. I was still in the library, I was stroking my arm with my hand as I replayed our conversation in my head. The women in Jasper's family had all been given the gift of premonitions. Both a gift and a curse I guess you could say. His mother had died, but maybe his sister could help me. Me and Jasper had planned to meet up, after his practice, out by the garden. There was a gazebo out by the lake where we could sit in private without prying eyes and ears. He asked me if the Alpha wouldn't mind us being alone together and I told him that he had nothing to worry about because he didn’t. James had no right to be possessive anymore, he had given up that right many choices ago. I knew that the risks were there, but I wouldn't let James hurt him, I finally felt like I had a chance to get a hang of everything. There was a way for me to be with James, feel the mate bond, and live a life that didn't have to end at the hands of this war and Raven got to

~Avery~James turned around and in an instant, he was in front of me, his hands cupped my face and he slammed his lips down on mine. The passion, the strength, the dominance, it was all clear in that one kiss. He pulled back slightly and rested his forehead against mine. ”Things are changing, everything is different, I know you feel it too. I will fix this, Avery, you have my word. It will be you and I, whatever I have to do to make it so, I will,” He said in a beautiful promise and placed a kiss on my forehead before he left. Alex stayed behind, he raised his head slightly and looked at me. There was something he wanted to say, be it an apology or something else, I didn't feel like hearing it. We were all dealing with our own problems, in our own ways. The problem was that all our problems included each other but we closed off and I didn't think it was going to change anytime soon. James thought he could find the truth in that book but he couldn’t, I knew he couldn’t. But the mo
