I turned around to look for Damon and I saw him standing at the edge of the river bank holding a large blue shirt and thankfully he had shorts on.

Wait, how was he already out and dressed? Did he fly down or what?

"C'mon it's late, we gotta get back now." He said holding out the shirt for me. I saw that there were blue shorts for me resting by his feet as well

I was currently in the middle of the river, almost completely submerged in the water, and he was at the edge.

Was I supposed to come out all the way... naked?

Hell no.

He cocked an eyebrow and I stayed right were I was, swimming in the river. Which actually took a lot of strength since my feet couldn't touch the ground yet, I had to swim against the current just to stay at one place.

I swam forward up until I could stand on my own two feet, but still deep enough for the water to cover me fully.

Thankfully it was up to my collarbone. I stood there and moved not an inch further to retrieve the shirt.

The river, being as wide as it

    "Get her."Was the last thing I heard before I turned around and started my sprint back to the pack grounds.The look on their faces alone as they turned to me was enough to have me sprinting to the hills.I shuddered as I remembered their faces, which seemed more vivid than any other part of my dream.It was like a pack of lions looking at a lamb in the middle of a desert during drought.Too much?Well that's how they looked at me.I had to fight my way back through the thick bush which just seemed to cage me in now. Holding me back.The twigs were literally strangling me as I pushed through.I fell out of the bush cutting my palm open on a sharp rock, but I paid it no mind. I hurriedly got back on my feet and started running.I literally shifted in a second and manoeuvred my way through the dense forest.I couldn't hear the sounds of footsteps approaching me but then again, none of them were touching the ground when I saw them now were they?That thought just seemed to add more fuel

    "Back where?" I tried to play it cool.I wasn't exactly sure of where I had gone to and if I even really went there in the first place. This could very well be a vivid dream. A very vivid one. With real life manifestations, I added as I thought about my palm.+He looked at me deadpan."I know for a fact that you didn't wake up at 4am for a quick morning jog," he rose a brow at me. "Unless you had another agenda."I tried not to be offended."I am very capable of waking up early to go jogging. You were the same person who told me I needed to shift more often, weren't you?"He regarded me silently. Trying to see if he should believe the unbelievable, that I had willingly gotten up at dawn to train, or that I went back to the place that had obviously rattled both of us last night. Which, right now in my right mind, doesn't sound so believable either.If he saw straight through my lie and diversion, he made no further comment about it.After a few more seconds of staring, he turned and le

    Old relics, talismans and amulets hung on the walls, at least that's what they looked like to me.The walls suddenly changed from their subtle peach colour to a dark brown with inscriptions etched on them.A weird thing in the structure of a very complicated flower vase appeared in between us. It was about two to three feet tall and looked like it was made entirely of porcelain.I moved back slightly and tucked my legs under the chair to prevent any mishaps.+She then shut her eyes and started chanting.For a moment there I was tempted to flee.'No Adriane you were dreaming' or 'Yes it really happened, don't worry I'll take care of those mean old ladies for you.'That's how I had been expecting this encounter to go.Really?Yes. I definitely didn't sign up for this.But the atmosphere suddenly felt so heavy and I couldn't move. At least not right away.And when a puff of air that formed a ball was emitted from that vase thing I actually fell off my chair.A warning would have been nic

    "Get up we're leaving. Now." Damon said while he stood by the door waiting for me to get up.He had folded his arms across his chest, his jaw tight.He was looking rather impatient."Alpha, I think you need to hear the whole story about this."Evelyn spoke from her seat at the end of the room.She tried to make direct eye contact with Damon to relay her message with urgency but Damon was staring at me, willing me to get up with the sheer force of his gaze."No, I dont. You're just gonna fill her head with nonsense and frighten her." He snapped as his eyes flashed at her and then looked at me to get a move on, since I was still firmly rooted to my seat. He looked on edge, and I wondered how much of our conversation he had actually heard. How long had he been in here? I didn't even feel his presence.Damon didn't look like he was interested in any talk about witches and sacrifices. Almost as if he didn't believe that they could do anything. I on the other had still dealt with chills as

    He turned to look at me briefly and looked back forward. "It was not the eel that alerted me to the presence of dark magic, although it prompted me to find out." He started. "I got chills when I saw it circling around in the water shortly before it disappeared. I knew something wasn't right and when I looked at the nearest tree by us I noticed a carving in it. It had been freshly made, some sort of hieroglyphic symbol, but I recognised it. I had seen it before. When I was little." The moment that was our of his mouth I began to sit up.I knew so little about his childhood, about him really, and I liked to hear him talk about some things."When you were little?"He nodded."I'd been out with my father and some other wolves exploring 'the amazing terrain' as he called it. We eventually settled down for lunch and while the adults prepared the grill, I wandered off. I remember going so far that I nearly got lost. I came upon some cobblestones right in the middle of the forest, so naturall

    "I really don't know what is happening anymore." I mumbled at Mavis as I sat on her bed and played with my fingers, occasionally twirling random strands of hair around my finger.+I huffed and fell back on the bed as Mavis sighed and sat upright looking down at me.Damon had told them about where I had disappeared to for more than a week when I was with Jax. Thankfully, he didn't disclose too much of what happened.Maybe because he himself didn't have the full play by play of what went down after I nabbed his car.At the back of my mind I wondered if he knew that all my wounds were inflicted on me by Cassandra since I hadn't actually said it yet.But then I remembered how she looked like when he brought her that day and how he'd ended her.He knew. Definitely.And if he didn't, I don't even want to imagine what he would have done.Mavis came by the house a couple of times when I stopped answering my phone, which I left in Damon's Range when I stepped out to meet Cassandra.I even had

    Mavis offered to escort me back home safely with James leading the way. Several metres ahead of course.I tried not to be offended.+I don't smell that bad, do I?When he got to my front door he stopped there and waited for us to catch up. I watched silently on when we arrived at where he stood and he wordlessly pulled Mavis into him, holding her close from behind. His posture relaxing greatly as he lightly inhaled her scent.Even in the dimly lit late afternoon sky I could see the blush rising to her cheeks and even the tips of her ears.It was like I was intruding on an intimate moment, and I suddenly felt the urge to turn away and give them some space.Especially James, whose wolf seemed on edge around me now.But I understood him though.I just couldn't help feeling that I actually smelled bad, like maybe a rotten egg or something. I hope this doesn't last.I didn't know what to say exactly at that moment so I remained silent, awkwardly looking everywhere but at them.It was Mavis

    My heart skipped a bit because I thought that he was on his bed.Is that really the only reason?Shut up."What, if I may ask, are you doing in my bedroom?" He asked twirling a strand of my hair between his fingers, at least that's what it felt like.I couldn't even see what's in front of me well in this darkness let alone behind me. And he was completely distracting me with that movement. I couldn't focus now.He left my hair and took a step back, waiting for my answer."Uhm..." Was my only dignified reply. I was suddenly really nervous and shaky. And yet, I didn't want to be anywhere else."You don't know why you suddenly left your room and entered mine?" He was beginning to sound as if he was taunting me. I heard him walk behind me and up to his bed where he flicked a bedside light on. It wasn't very bright and only illuminated a small radius around it but I could definitely see him better.And what a sight he was.He stood in front of the dim lamp thereby casting his body in some

    And just as I felt the pull increase, it stopped suddenly. Slowly I looked up to see wide blue eyes staring at me in shock. As quickly as it happened he pulled his hand out, thankfully spine-free. This however still led me to collapse on the ground. I was going to heal, yes, that is, if they gave me time to, but for now, I still couldn't feel my limbs properly. I felt a crack that made my body snap, my spine was realigning itself but it was excruciatingly painful and slow. All I could do was lie and watch Damon. Damon who for some reason was still just standing and staring at me. Sarah though, had apparently had enough. "I said for you to take her spine out!" I could see the blackness in his eyes trying to to return, and with all he had he fought against it. So much so that when his eyes started changing colour again I had a sickening feeling it was blood. And I was right.With a grunt he fell back to the ground, blood oozing out of his ears, eyes and mouth. He was spasming on

    I had heard the words.Loud and clear.Yet they rang in my mind like I had imagined them.'Take her spine out.'A very dangerous command uttered against me. And yet I still couldn't move.I had heard those words and I was still frozen in shock.Unfortunately, Damon had also heard them, and was ever willing to oblige.I could feel his fingers and claws pushing past my flesh, tearing muscle and sinew along the way as he continued to inch closer and closer to my spine. The pain was searing and numbing at the same time.I gasped and could only let out silent screams and breathless grunts. My body was still not functioning the way it was supposed to. My motor nerves were defunct but my sensory nerves were working overtime. I could feel every ounce of pain and then some.So when he finally made contact with my spine I felt chills all over my body. From my scalp straight to my toe tips. His hand slowly wrapped itself around the girth of my spinal column, the gaping hole in my back causing

    No."Attack her."I didn't even have time to register what she said because I was focusing on what was happening to Damon. In an instant, he had pounced on me while the other minions started to become visible around Sarah again.I've fought with Damon before, but we were training, and he was still him, and he didn't want to kill me.This time was totally different. I wasn't even fighting with Damon, I was fighting Sarah. I saw this because her eyes had turned as black as his, and she was focusing all her energy on me. She's entranced him.She's fighting me through him.Damon lunged at me, and I ducked and kicked him backwards. I tried to think hurriedly between rushed breaths and movements. How do I fight him? I can't hurt him. Will I hurt him if I fight him? Will it hurt her? He came for me again and bit into my shoulder, I reached my arms back, grabbed unto his shoulders, and yanked him off me, slamming him hard unto the ground. He grabbed my ankle and pulled me down to the

    All of a sudden, I was left alone. They'd stopped attacking me.They're trying to leave.I was scared that they'd do that.If they escape today, we might never get them together again to end this.I really hope Damon and Evelyn were able to pull through.Just then, from around and above me, I felt surges in the atmosphere.Simultaneously walking in, there was Evelyn with Damon and Marcus right behind her. I heard them before I actually saw them.Evelyn's hair was all loose, actually levitating around her as she muttered some words and kept her hands up in the air. In twos and threes, people all started filing in from the hedge entrance at the far end of the clearing. This was way more than we agreed upon. In a short amount of time, there were almost sixty to seventy people here, all looking ready to fight. I even saw Mavis and James line up behind Damon and Marcus.Evelyn's voice got progressively louder as I caught my breath, looking all around and feeling all my wounds close up

    I was in shock.When she was done doing whatever she was doing to the bubble she smiled. Because she knew what she was doing. She was distracting me. But I didn't even care about her anymore.I was frozen, staring at the woman. The woman who was still seemingly unconscious, fading fast and almost lifeless.The woman I would be replacing.The woman who sent me back when I almost died. The woman whose picture lies in my drawer with her brown long wavy hair, her hair that was not white because of age or even for the fact that she'd been overused or drained. Her white hair that was so in her wolf state. In her white wolf state. I'd stared at this face a million times in my worn out picture. I'd stared at this face even in the mirror. I knew her. I know her.It's her. It's really her."Only fitting that you've come to replace your mother isn't it. Generational blood is always the strongest." Sarah cackled.She was distracting me. Trying to throw me off. "One wolf supplying an entire t

    There was no one here.Nothing here. And there was certainly no matter right in the air where my fist just was.I stretched my hand forward but there was nothing there. Like I'd just imagined it. But I've been through too much to just overlook things.I closed my eyes and punched the air around that spot again, but nothing.Stop. Breathe and feel the surge.I directed my rage and energy again and let it out in another punch. My hand bounced back again. It felt like I had hit some sort of jelly. Some thick invisible sturdy jelly.What is this?This time, keeping my focus I placed both hands on where I thought this jelly was, and I held it. I could feel it. And it wasn't just a little blob. It was huge, like a whole wall of the stuff. What is this? Are they in here? Keeping up with it, I tried to focus more of my energy on it to try and get through the barrier but I couldn't break it. It was literally exerting the same amount of force pushing me away as I was putting on it. "Ahh!

    I'd committed the place to memory. I knew exactly where they were. And even if I didn't, they'd find me. They were expecting me. But they certainly weren't expecting me in the capacity in which I was going. And even if they were, they were in for a ride regardless. This ends today. It ends now. Walking further I started to notice the trees with the strange markings again. This was it, I was approaching dark woods territory. The etchings were barely visible, probably wearing away over the years or in their case probably decades, the bark protesting against this violation to its skin. I've known for a long time how I act under pressure, and I've known for a shorter while how my wolf acts under pressure. Right now I wasn't acting like anyway I've acted before. I wasn't shaking with apprehension or nerves, and I didn't have a rapid heartbeat filled with determination or wild aggression. I was just calm. Still. But I was blazing with fury.I could feel the ice cold flames wrap themse

    Fight day.It was today.A week later has felt like a year.But it's finally here. I lay awake in bed staring at the ceiling.I didn't want to sleep, but Damon insisted, he said I need rest to be at my best today.So I'm here at 2am trying to rest since sleep has inadvertently evaded me, while Damon paces all over the house, doing goodness knows what.He's restless, I know.We all are. Even though we don't actually leave until 4pm, it's been impossible to relax. I haven't slept for almost two days now, but sleep was so far from me.I was going to take the lead. Locate the 'sanctuary' as they call it, by myself, and then have Damon and the rest follow my trail a little while later. How was I feeling right now? Scared?No.Anxious? Yes. I want to get it over with.Angry? Well, let's just say that whatever we have planned for them, they've got it coming.I spoke to Sorayah on the phone yesterday, she's already trying to make it back but I'm not sure what time she'll get here.It's

    ***A few minutes had gone by and we were still deep in conversation, regarding the sisters, what was happening, well the main gist of it and how we had to move forward.Even though I completely engrossed in the conversation I caught his footsteps before he even stepped on the lawn.I glanced over at Aliyah who had her eyes trained on Evelyn as she spoke of healer capabilities when they are in full bloom.I could sense him approaching. He was now outside the door. And by the way he lingered there for a whole five minutes I'm sure he knew who was in here. He was here to go over some things with Damon, something I would have to sit in on as well at some point.When I had planned this earlier I didn't think that it would take so long. I didn't even consider them running into each other. Is it going to be awkward or is it actually a good thing? To clear the air maybe?He finally stepped in, Sam, the head guard, in tow. They walked up to us and then greeted me."Alpha." They both said a
