Freya's P.O.V Cameron and I watched Sarah enter the dining room hand in hand with Darcia the next morning. Her smile was radiant as she looked up at him and Darcia's eyes sparkled as she looked down at her. Seeing them together and this happy, it made my heart swell with joy as well. I felt Cameron's hand on mine as he intertwined our fingers under the table and placed them on my lap. This time, I felt the same joy inside my veins as I had felt a second ago with Sarah. As if understanding how I was feeling, Sarah turned to look at me, smiling gratefully as she came to sit on the chair beside me, while Darcia sat next to her. Alex raised an eyebrow at all of us, since he was now the only one sitting on the other side of the table. I wasn't exactly sure, but I think I heard him mutter 'fucking couples' under his breath before he cleared his throat and gave us all a pointed look. "So?" Darcia asked, looking around the table with raised eyebrows. "Wha
Cameron's P.O.V "There's something urgent that I need to tell you." I told her once we were back inside her room. Julian had been handing out with us for some time after breakfast, but now that it was his bath time, Freya and I had finally gotten some time alone. "Is this about the witch thing?" She frowned at me from the window seat. She loved looking out at the sea, so I had made that seat specially for her. And by 'made', I mean that I ordered people to set things up for me. "No…it's about your father." "What happened to dad?" She sat up straighter, her eyes looking troubled as soon as I mentioned her father. "It's not good news. Last night he went into a coma." I informed her. "His injuries were more severe than we thought they would be and his malnourishment and alcohol addiction is making it difficult for his body to heal properly. The doctors said…I think you should be prepared for the worst.&qu
Freya's P.O.V It was around eleven at night when I came out of the pack house, after putting Julian to sleep, and found Cameron doing laps in the pool. I hadn't seen him all day after he broke the news of my dad to me and since then, I had been consoling Julian. More like he was consoling me. Because Julian never really formed a bond with my father the way I did and part of me was glad about it. But a part of me was also upset that he never got to know who our father really was, before his addictions took a hold of him. Now, I went and sat at the edge of the pool, dipping my feet into the cool water as I waited for Cameron to return from the other end. It didn't take him long as he swam back to my side of the pool within seconds of sensing me. "Why aren't you in bed yet?" Was the first thing he asked as he came out of the water and wiped a hand down his face. "I could ask you the same thing." I countered, reaching forward to move his ha
Freya's P.O.V A week after the whole kidnapping incident and finding out that I was somehow magically connected to Sarah…Cameron showed up to my room with a bile of books and notebooks and placed them on my bedside table. "What's all this?" I asked in dread, my eyes wide in horror. "Please don't tell me this is…" "Your homework," Cameron raised his eyebrows at me. "Yes, it is. And you have to catch up on your studies from now on. No excuses. You're going to get back on track and I'll help you with it." "Isn't my boyfriend supposed to get me flowers? Not depression?" I asked him oh-so-innocently. "Don't get cheeky with me, Missy." Cameron lowered himself to my level so we were face to face. "Remember what we talked about? You complete school, go to college and then we work together? You, of course, have the choice of choosing a different career, but lazing around isn't an option anymore."
Freya's P.O.V "No!" "Yes! "NO!" "YES!" "NOOOOO…." "Shut up bitch and get inside!" Sarah pulled me into the store with a vice grip on my arm and I tried to reach for Cameron…who happily waved me goodbye and drove off with a whispered, 'I love you'. "I don't!" I shouted back, just before I was pulled inside. "Traitor!" "Cameron knows better than to mess with me." Sarah shrugged, flipping her blonde hair behind her shoulders as she took off her shades. "Come on now, we have dresses to find. And if you don't help me, God help your soul!" I watched Sarah with my jaw literally on the ground. What the fuck? "Who are you and what have you done to my friend?" "Oh, don't be overdramatic!" She rolled her eyes. "Overdramatic?" I screeched. "I was the one who just got dragged into a dress store for God's s
Freya's P.O.V I must have appeared visibly shaken when we arrived at the café Downtown, because the second Cameron saw me, he was on his feet and rushing over to my side the next instant. "What's wrong?" He looked from me to Sarah as he wrapped an arm around me. "What happened? Freya?" "I think we should take a seat first." Sarah motioned for the rest of the group to move to the very back of the restaurant, where no one would be able to overhear our conversation. "Let's go." Cameron held on to me tightly as he led me to the back as Alex and Darcia followed suit and moved seats for us, taking their drinks with them. Once we were seated, Cameron took the seat beside me and began to inspect any exposed part of my skin for injuries. "Are you hurt anywhere? Did someone say something to you? Freya? Please, tell me what's wrong?" There was desperation in his voice that made me snap my attention to him. Yes,
Freya's P.O.V "This way." Darcia led us into a fairly new apartment building Downtown. It was four stories tall and had plenty of bougainvillea plants hanging off of the residents balconies. To be honest, it was an incredibly beautiful view. To think that a witch would live here…? And to think that Cameron and the others were considering that I might be a witch? What was a witch anyways? From what I'd read in fairy tales and children's books, witches were evil fairies that pretty much did all sorts of evil deeds…was I supposed to do something like that? Cameron tightened his hand on mine, as if he understood what was going through my mind. When I looked up at him, he gave me a reassuring smile. It helped take some of my worries away. We stopped on the second floor and Darcia knocked on the third door to the right. It had an ornate dream-catcher right at the entrance, made with beads and crystals rather than feathers. A girl opened the door
Freya's P.O.V I opened my eyes groggily. Every part of my body was aching but my head hurt the most. It felt like I something had exploded inside my brain. I brought my arms up to my face weakly, to touch the corner of my eyes. They were wet. Was I crying from the pain? Had to be, because it hurt like motherfucking hell! A groan sounded from somewhere near me and I knew almost instantly who it was. "Sarah…?" I whispered; my voice hoarse and almost inaudible. "Sarah?" "Freya?" She groaned. "Wh-what happened?" "I-I d-don't…" I sat up with great difficulty, but the scene around me had me freezing in place. Cameron, Darcia and Maggie were all unconscious and on the floor around us, while Sarah lay a few feet away, struggling to get up as well. The room was all messed up and the table had been overturned. It was like a tornado had hit the room while we were out could. What on earth…? "Oh m
