Tyler, Katy, Jackson, and I were all gathered around the living room, ready to hear about Tyler's trip.
I was quite nervous. What if he really is still alive? What if he tries to attack us again?
I sat beside Tyler cross-legged on the couch.
"Right when I arrived I spoke with the Alpha of Moonstone. He said that a few of his guards claimed to have see him deep on the north side of their territory. But they were never able to kill him. The second day I went on a territory walk with the Alpha, and when we crossed through the North Territory we saw someone in the woods."
"Did you get them?" Katy interrupts Tyler.
Then Tyler ran him hand through his hair frustratedly. "No, it's lik
My eyes flutter open and I am greeted by a white ceiling. Groaning, I turn my head to the side and notice a nice table with a lamp, telling me that I am in a bedroom. Attempting to sit up, I wiggle forward but immediately stop when a sharp pain hits my neck. Glancing down, I see my arm thoroughly wrapped up, keeping it perfectly in place. How long was I asleep for?My eyes roam around the room until they land on a door off to the side. I try to move my legs, but they only reach a few inches from where they were. My head is dizzy, someone must have given me painkillers, the same person who must have taken care of my arm.I may not know what will happen to me, but at least I know my baby is okay. Tyler, he must be so worried. The last time I saw him he was in his office researching more about Lycans. What if I was right, what if Richard i
The stay close to the walls as I rush back to the room. Since the phone does not work, my hopes have withered.I slip back through the door but freeze when I spot someone crouched down beside the man who brought me food. My heart comes to a harsh halt when the stranger gazes up and Tyler's eyes beam into mine. "Thank god," he murmurs and traps me in his arms, squeezing me tightly.Tears spring from my eyes."How did you..." I mumble."We don't have time right now, we have to get out of here," he tells me and I nod my head, eager to leave.Together we sneak down the hallway and search for any exits. I stay close behind him as he navigates through the building, pulling me around corner
I ran down the stairs as screams filled my ears and terror flooded my veins. I sprinted to the front door of the pack house and flung it open— revealing rogues and pack members everywhere tackling, biting, ripping, and killing each other. My eyes squeezed shut, and my hands plugged my ears, praying that this was not real. After taking a few deep breaths I peeled them open again, but nothing has changed, and I began to panic. With only one thing on my mind, I was now determined to fight with everything I had.Sprinting across the open field, no one noticed me; they were too busy fighting, killing. I made my way through the endless trees searching for my siblings. I don't understand; they should have been in the pack house with me. How could they have been so foolish to leave?Hiding behind a thick tree, I hear
"Oh."The room fell silent; I could hear the crickets outside. My heart was beating out of my chest, and I felt like I couldn't breathe while staring down at my hands resting on my lap. I wanted to get up and run into the forest, and not dare to come back.My mate.My mate is standing five feet away from me, and I can't move, I want to run into his arms, I want to be his. But I can't move. Katy is sitting on the couch opposite of mine completely shocked, like everyone else. I feel like I'm going to puke, the tension in the room was slowly suffocating me. I stood up and looked him right in his piercing deep blue eyes; I did not run into his arms. Instead, I left the room. I speed walked into the kitchen and took a deep breath; the air was fresh and untouched by emotion.
"Is that all?" The man behind the counter asked in a bored tone."You know what change the diet coke to a sprite." Katy scans the menu."Katy you've been ordering for fifteen minutes, there's people waiting for us!" I scold her."I'm done!"Behind us, you can hear people sighing and mumbling 'finally.' She turns around and glares at the other people in line."Come on, let's go sit down," I suggest.Katy grabs her chicken sandwich, fries, and Sprite off the counter and carries her tray with her chin up high. We pick a table by the fountain in the middle of the food court and sit down.
I didn't sleep all night. Katy would come by and knock on the door asking me to let her in, so we can talk. I didn't feel like talking, just being alone. At first, all I did was cry; now I'm just staring at the ceiling while I lay still on the bed. I knew that if I tried to leave now, he would haunt my mind and heart forever. Why did he think that he wasn't good for me? We were made for each other; he's supposed to be the best thing to ever happen to me. How can I have a future with someone that said our kiss was a mistake?knock"Anna, you can't stay in there forever." Katy talked to the door."Yes, I can." I protest in a board tone."Come on Anna, please open the door." Katy cries.
Tyler stood in the doorway, his eyes filled with lust. He came closer to the bed, trailing his fingers on the soft covers. The closer he got to me the more restless I became. I studied his naked chest, his defined abs that make my mouth water. My wolf purred as he bent down, our lips almost locking, I couldn't wait for the sensation of his kisses."Anna!" A voice mumbles, ruining the moment."Annalee!""Wake up!"My eyes shoot open and are greeted by Katie's face. It was only a dream, darn."I wanted to show you around the pack today!" She cheers clapping her hands."Don't you have school?" I ask rubbing my eyes. What time is it?
"With me." Tyler stands up. "Anna is my mate."Just hearing him say those words makes my heart flutter, my mind race, my knees grow weak and makes me feel whole. It's the first time he's said Anna and mate in the same sentence.I look down at the hardwood floor trying to hide my blush."Anna is that true?" Frank asks.I peek up to see everyone's eyes on me. "Yes, he's my... mate."Frank sighs and walks up to me. "Anna... there's something I never told you, and thatthingis why you can't just run away."Frank has been keeping secrets from me; I'm not surprised. Everyone does."Well, what is it?" I ask slightly curious.He takes a moment to look around the room after his eyes meet mine again."Are you sure you want me to tell you in front of everyone?" He asks unsure.Before I could answer his question, Tyler already did."Jackson, Katy." Tyler points his finger at the door, Jackson
