2024-10-29 19:42:56I still remember the last time I saw my mother. I was eleven, just entered middle school. I laid in bed that night, unable to sleep when I heard the shouting. Mom and dad were arguing again. It seemed to happen quite a bit around that time.
Lucy and Shawn were just born, and I loved sneaking in to watch them sleep. I was overjoyed to have a sister in this house of boys. I pictured us doing all the things I was deprived of as a kid and couldn't wait until she was old enough to do her nails.
Having nothing else to do at such a late hour, I crawled silently out of bed and crept down the hall from Mom and Dad’s aggressive voices to my siblings’ room.

I sat idly on the hard mattress, staring down at my thumbs, trying to process everything that was going on. I have never felt so overwhelmed in my life, but at the same time, I felt as though my life was starting to piece together. Gosh, even my feelings were jumbled up. I felt the mattress sink as Nathan’s massive size jumped up on the bed. Although I offered him clothes, he refused to change back into human form. His huge, dark wolf blended into the darkness of the room. The sun had almost fallen down; it was barely peeking over the plain, plunging the world into darkness at only six o'clock. He scooted closer up the bed to me and rested his large head on my thigh. I

The second I stepped out of the room, I felt paranoid. All this action hasn't been good for my nerves, and now that we were technically fugitives, I felt even more worried than normal. I all but ran over to the car and threw in the bag before opening the back door and letting Nathan in. I yanked open my own door and twisted the key in the ignition, sighing in relief as it rumbled to life. Pressing down on the gas, I swerved out of the parking lot and pulled back on the highway. “You could have changed to at least help me with the driving,” I mumbled, frustrated at his adamant disagreement with changing back to human form.

I reached the pump and popped the cap off the side and lifted the pump. The numbers on the machine were still from the last purchase and I waited patiently for the man in the station to add my money to the pump. I would stay here all night if it meant I didn't have to go back in to see those guys. I tapped my foot on the ground, waiting for the numbers to reset, but nothing happened. I looked over at the backseat at Nathan and he looked back at me expectantly, as if waiting for me to go back in there. I sighed and placed the heavy pump down before turning to go back into the small building. I w

Without another thought, he leaped in the air and aimed for AJ's throat. He shoved him behind the bag that fell to the floor and gurgled screams died instantly. Micah's face paled as he watched Nathan tear into AJ, still ripping his flesh apart. He stumbled for a second before bolting for the door, all his prospects from before long forgotten. I raised the gun quickly, afraid he was going to get away. “Stop!” I yelled, fully aware he wasn't going to comply if it meant getting attacked by a rabid wolf. I lifted my gun and aimed it for his back, watching his long, blonde hair fly behind him in his hurry.

“Turn back!” I screeched at Nina from where I sat and lurched from the cushion under me. I had to get that map. I couldn’t get to Jonathan without that. And there was no way I was just not going to see him. “What, are you crazy? You’re lucky we got out of there with you in the car!” Nathan growled lightly from next to me, probably not liking the idea of leaving me behind. I understood, I felt the same way about him.

I plopped onto the furthest mattress and took off my shoes, making it obvious I wasn’t going anywhere for a while. Nathan growled at the way I easily let my guard down around someone who was still technically a stranger, and I found it comforting he was as hesitant to trust her as much as I was. But he had enough paranoia for the both of us at the moment. Maybe it was something about the caged animal, but Nathan did not like being put in a small room with someone untrustworthy. Nina took the other bed and did the same to her shoes. She hauled her own backpack on the bed and reached inside. Nathan growled again at her actions,

The barbed fence stood tall as a barrier between the cars and the outside world. A small booth sat huddled in the corner, a single exterior light the only thing making it conspicuous against the thick darkness of night. Street lights lined the chain fence along the exterior, extending down past my view. I wondered if there were cameras on the posts. Rows and rows of cars were lined in neat rows, seeming to be going on forever in hundreds of cars. It wouldn't surprise me if there were a thousand cars in this lot alone. “Alright, now,” Nina whispered at me as we approached the gate. W

“What?” Nina tried to get me to talk again, but I was suddenly aware I didn’t know where Nathan was. I looked around frantically until my eyes settled on the massive wolf. He circled the Spiritwalker stealthily until jumping forward and nipping at the end of the cloth. You could tell he was taunting him, but the foolish Spirit thought Nathan was trying to attack and jumped away from him to try and assault from the side. Now Nathan was just enjoying himself as he stepped back and started to circle around again. I had to tell him. I sprung up and scrambled to the face-off. &ldqu

The constant beeping was the first thing I noticed when I woke up. My eyes fluttered slightly, but the flooding of light caused me to close my eyes again. The loud beeping continued, seeming to change patterns and noises like an alarm clock. I tried to open my eyes again, and this time, it worked. Bright, clean white walls were glaring through the blinding pure lights. A sterile smell sunk into my nose as a too-familiar smell kicked my brain into panic. It smelled just like the Keepers. The beeping picked up and got more rapid as my fear escalated and I felt my hands start to tremble. If I was back at the Keepers, I knew there was no hope of me ever getting out again. I was

A headache started pulsating behind me eyes and I closed my eyes against the bright light urging it on.“You wanna know the best part of owning a hotel and being a leader of the AKO? Getting an inside look to supernatural's lives. You left your dream back in that hotel room. And it was then I realized you were connected to everything that destroyed me.”The guy next to me cocked the gun. “So, Elana, you need to tell us something if you want a chance of saving your arm.”I shook my head, but instantly regret it as my headache returns instantly. I opened my eyes to glare at her. “You know this is wrong, Nina. You know there is another way to find out the Spirit's weaknesses. Sacrificing people is never okay, even if you believe it's for the greater good of mankind. Your family would be ashamed to see you like this. It's—”“I'm not arguing with you!” Nina exploded. “You can't tell me what i

I felt her head jerk to the side under mine and lost it. I fell on top of her, bawling. Her blood was cold against my cheek and I didn't dare open my eyes. Some noises sounded, somewhere between a cry and scream. The awful noises continued, one after the other and filled the empty room and hallway in their obvious agony. I realized it was me. I was making those noises. I didn't care and clung to her body, whimpering apology after apology. I let out cries, gurgled by my constricted throat. Tears and snot ran freely down my face and directly onto her limp body. Her skin was already losing its warmth and the stench of metallic blood filled all my senses. But I didn't care as I clung to

I froze as the door shook behind me. I felt shivers tickle up and down my body and I turned so fast my hair swung around and smacked my face. I shoved the ponytail back and studied the door. The sound is coming from the basement. And there was only one thing left down there. The door banged again and I jumped from the loud sound. The fear kicked my brain back into gear and I turned around, bolting back down the hall and to the room we just came from. I snatched Claire's wrist on my way, seeing that she was in the same trance I was. After I grabbed her arm, she sprung off her cemented feet and ran after me. I ripped the door open and nearly screamed when I saw what was on th

“Oh, no. Go, go, go!” I yelled urgently as Nathan practically carried Hyene up the steps. We bound into the hallway and I quickly slammed the door shut behind us, then pushed a nearby couch in front of it. “That's not going to hold it for long,” Nathan murmured as we flew down the hallway. I just hoped someone already had the Land Rover fired up and ready to go. The Spirit finished its work on the crazy man and was now after us. As we neared the front door, I saw familiar lights of the land rover in the distance. Claire had managed to get the car and Trysten was now loading everybody in. As we made it to the vehicle, I jumped into the the passenger seat door

I stepped gingerly into a dark hallway and looked to my left. Claire was tip-toeing next to me. I couldn't quite understand what was going on, but I knew the boys were in trouble. Don't ask me how, but I just knew. A large duffel bag weighed down my right side, heavy contents making it nearly impossible to keep upright. I looked over to Claire again and realized she had two bags, one draped over each shoulder. I tried to stay light on my feet as I made my way down the hall. When I got to a door, I could feel Nathan behind it. I swallowed my fear and leaned my face onto the crack of the open door. I was expecting another office or room of some sort, but instead, it was a lit stairwel

Dinner was a bad idea. Not only was it painfully awkward, but we hadn’t known anybody there.Gabriel sat at the opposite side of the room and at a different table, and regardless of my constant checking, there was no way to point out the little boy I spent months with. He just simply wasn’t here.But if he wasn’t here, where was he?Nathan laid a gentle hand on my elbow. “It’s a full moon.”I hadn’t even noticed. I’ve been so preoccupied lately with everything else that was going on, I didn’t even notice it was the full moon.“We’re going on a run. You can ride my back like you did before, that way you can keep up.”I smiled wide. “Was that a challenge?”Nathan liked my response and smiled back.“I appreciate the offer, but I really need to do some planning. I have to figure out our next move now that Liam or Derek aren’t here.&rdquo

A rickety old hotel stood, barely hanging on to any sight of life. I was begging myself that Gabriel wouldn't pull his vehicle into the establishment, and I let out a disappointed sigh when he did. Nathan seemed to have the same feeling. I thought we were on the highway towards a nice place where they put the survivors. Imagine my surprise when we pull up to this mess. The dark boards of the foundation made the house look like it was built in the 1700's. The windows were mostly boarded and the few that weren't I wished were. The boards hanging onto the roof were scattered and sticking up in random places as if someone tacked them on at a later date. Although the house was surrounded with green grass, that did little to help the place look taken care of.

I stood straight up from my position against the railing. “Wait, you said Derek and Liam disappeared at the same time?” Junto’s eyebrows scrunched together and slowly stood as well. “Well, by the time we had come back, they were both gone. Why?” I walked off the bridge, abandoning the lake beauty and running straight for the forest. “We have to get back! Is Gabriel still here?” Junto shrugged. “I don’t really know, I just came out to check on you while Nathan went to look
