Jacob I had a depressive night and eventually had to go watch the video. Harold joined me there and we could already begin to see the parts of the footage that were missing. I noticed that there had been a white van that pulled up but then it left in a hurry. At least, I now had something that I could be trying to trace through the traffic lines. I was not going to sit down there doing this but I already had the assignment. The best plan would have been to assign it to my siblings. But with the state of affairs, it was almost like they were too busy trying to compete for attention than work together. And now, there was Peter who I could not even begin to understand why he would open up to me about his situation. I have never been his favourite sibling and I did not intend to be that. What he had confided in me was too heavy a weight to bear and my head was roaming around aimlessly."Are you bothered about what your parents said?" Harold had asked me and I realised that it was becomin
JacobI had my shower and while preparing, Harold came in to check on me. I did not actually see anything wrong with that since it was not Peter. He wanted to know if I already had my eyes on something and I told him that I would be going out on a particular investigation today. He was happy and reminded me that even though I already told my brothers, he wanted me to be safe out there. I told him there was no need to be alarmed as I was always careful. I finished my things and I left the bedroom. Coming downstairs, I saw Jace in the kitchen and he was bearing another's scent. What was it with him and having Garrett's scent always. I pretended now that I needed to get something from the kitchen and he looked up when he saw me."Sir, do you need anything?" He asked me."It's Jacob. But yes, I need a glass of water. I'm not sure why I'm suddenly thirsty." I said to him,He smiled shyly and then went to go get me water. I watched his every movement with keen eyes as I was trying to see if
Damon I had driven home and on the way, I did not know that the asshole was going to come and I could not risk that. I still recalled Peter and hence stopped somewhere to get to search his mouth. Just as expected, he had a secret device in his mouth which I bagged up. I was beginning to feel right now as if I was some sort of detective as I went back around and got into my car. There was actually a lot on my mind now but I was already breathing the air of satisfaction to the fact that my brothers would learn now that I was not some fool who deals with anger issues. I drove home and got them all to come around when I started speaking to them. None of them would believe that I had a specimen brought over for them to explore with and I did not bother arguing with anyone. I simply got off the trunk where I had been sitting and I pulled him out. When they saw him, it was a question of checking his mouth which I proudly told them that I already got. I could see their amazement and admira
Donald I could not believe my ears and did not want to think that what I thought about was already happening. There were no cousins that I knew of who were invested in what we were doing. I demanded to know what this said cousin had asked for and she told me that he said she should show him to Diddy's office. I could not even believe my ears as I stood up immediately and demanded that she show me to the office first hand . Before she would even start to ask, I was already pushing her out of her office as she was in a wheelchair. She was pointing the way out to me and I was being really fast without caring about her heart. My entire mind was in the office and what I needed to find. The moment we came in front of the office, I left her there panting and holding her breathing as I opened the door and entered the office. The entire place was in chaos and I already had my heart pounding really fast as I started to glance around. I needed to find the air vent and then I saw it as I notice
Harold "He's hiding something, Harold and I know you can tell." These were Garrett's words to me as we watched Damon leaving.I have been a lot more observant these days as there was something really brewing between the boys. This recent challenge posed to get a hold of the bounty hunters was really messing with their minds as everyone of them seemed a little bit more focused on the fact that it was a competition. This has certainly not been what I had been intending as I wanted them to bond over this and figure things out together. But the more they discussed the matter, the more I noticed that all of them were being scared by something even more. I got upset. I had watched them grow so long that I cared about them. Seeing them this chaotic was not what I wanted and I knew although she had been human before her death, Luma certainly would not want them bickering and hating. It was very heavy on me and I could not even deal.Earlier today, I had gone out with Peter after his insisten
Molly A lot of things have been happening and I did not know where to begin. I have been at the outskirts for sometime now and it has not been easy on me for one bit. There was nothing much with me and all I needed to discover right now was a really good motel where I would rest for the night. I had been dropped off at a fuel station and had to ask the attendees there where I could find a place to roost. One of them was getting off work shortly and she asked me to wait for her. It was just in twenty minutes which I did not mind at all. I mean, I needed to rest too. So, I hung around. It felt like eternity but I was already beginning to hope that I would find Jace and all the search would be over."Hey, are you hungry?" She had finished and came to me. She looked really pretty for a girl in a town like this and was adorned in an all goth outfit. I realised it before anything that I was drawn to her. I have been in a relationship before and it did not end very well and I have avoided i
Peter I could literally tell that Damon was hiding something and I decided that I would go check in on him much later. I mean, we two were literally buddies and did understand ourselves and I had this understanding. He certainly would want to tell me what he had discovered. So, I went straight to my bedroom and I laid there biding my time until I felt that no one would be moving around. I got out of my bed and then started off to his bedroom and knocked. He demanded what I wanted even before I told him that I was the one and his tone spoke of a lot of anger and pent up emotions making me wonder if I had done something to provoke or upset him. So, I told him that I wanted to talk and he came over and opened the door himself. Usually, he would ask me to come straight inside but this time, he had actually locked his door from the inside. If I knew one thing about Damon, it was the fact that he never locked his door. I mean, none of us really did anyways and right now, he had this look i
Jace Everything in the house was being really weird and I knew by now that they were intentionally sending me away making me wonder what was happening. This also scared me as I did not want to be caught up in something that could actually cost me my life. I mean, they have been sending me and acting like criminals would and I could no longer latch onto the promise that Garrett had made when he told me everything was alright. I needed to know what I could do about myself and if I should just run away. Who knows, I might go start a new life somewhere or I would take the time to find Molly. Yes, she was already looking for me and thanks to them, I had totally missed her. Even though it had been my choice totally that I had come here to work. I started wondering if I could plead with Garrett to send me back. That night, they had returned and were actually all weird and suspicious. I needed to find answers and I did my very best to stay out of their way. Harold told me yet again that they
Damon I guess I should be given the fastest man alive award for the way I had dashed out of the lab. Finally, my brothers were coming up to speed with what I was planning to do and it was really nice that I was not alone in this. Seeing those vampires out there looking really helpless was not something that I had been looking for. So, I went over the rock and made the fastest jump down ever as I rushed to the car. Very quickly, I pulled away the bushes used to cover it and I got inside and started driving away. The sun was already coming down at this point a little and I knew we were somewhere around the afternoon. I drove all the way straight out of the outskirts in a frenzy I had not been expecting and soon, to the city. I had no idea at the slightest where exactly I wanted to go but I pulled one on my contacts. The moment I dialled him, he became really scared from how he sounded on the phone. He probably was wondering why I was calling him two times a week. That was bothersome,
Garrett You ever have a sibling you wish it would not really matter if you kill them because right now, Damon was filling that position for me. His rash reactions and lack of foresight against risk was alarming so much that I began to wonder how he had managed to survive all these years.How on earth do you go around pulling levers and when the ground beneath you starts to give way, you remain put? How do you hear sounds that are scary and then risk your life to go investigate. He was beginning to make it look like our purpose here was to try and keep him from doing something stupid other than save our pack.Now, he had returned with the not so good news on how there were vampires in here. And he was looking excited much like he wanted to release them. I was counting on the fact that he might have already done that. I looked helplessly at Jacob and the disappointment on his own face told me everything that I needed to know about his emotions at the moment. He did not actually find it
Jacob A mission with my brothers was definitely not something I thought would have happened if asked about it two years ago or even six months ago. Who would have thought that so much would change in just a short time that was beginning to make me realise something more. It was not so bad working with my brothers. In fact, it made me feel a special closeness to them and I started to wonder as I was driving why we never bonded this way. Perhaps, I should say thanks to the bounty hunters for this avenue and Jace for being the common thing that we all were mutually connected to.I drove through the outskirts and peeped at the rearview mirror to find Damon sleeping. He looked so peaceful and not so mischievous. I admire him now. A version of me who had gone out of his way to take risks for us. I mean, who would have thought that such a heart lies beneath that playboy glee that we were all used to. It made sense now, those times that I would find him snooping around. And now I could tell
Damon Everyone was finally on the same page. At least everyone here that had to be as Peter was still upstairs sleeping. I enjoyed the fact that we all understood this whole situation wholeheartedly and I was finally able to open up to my brothers on what I had found out. By the looks of things, we most definitely would be getting back at Luke together.I had to explain the whole findings to them but I had already seen the design of that machine and I believed that was something Garrett the genius would be able to understand. I was right. The moment he took a look at it, his eyes widened with so much shock. He recognised it or at the very least, what it was supposed to do and I knew we were not safe before he told us that it was all about destruction."Wait, what do you mean by that?" Harold demanded. This was the first time I have seen him panic this way."From what I can tell about this, it is supposed to create something that would fish us all out and make us go rabid and even kil
Garrett Finally, we would not be needing to keep our identity hidden from Jace any longer. It was high time actually because I was already wondering if I was going to have to keep lying to him. Harold seemed to be finally getting into understanding us and I was really happy. That was when Jace asked the funny question and we started laughing.I felt bad for him when I looked up at him and noticed how he looked. He had been genuinely shaken up by Peter's stuff that he might have seen his life flash before his own eyes. I knew for one thing though that even though Peter was not going to eat him, he was definitely going to kill him. But it was not intentional and that was something I believed Jace should understand. Yes, I have always wanted his attention to myself and I really wished for that even now but we all had fought together to keep him safe and so, everyone deserves a second chance to make him trust us.So, I spoke up."Actually, he was not going to eat you. He was in pain and
Jace I was freaking out, my insides felt like they had been tied into a knot of sorts and right now, all I wanted was to leave here alive. I had been shocked when I had suddenly been approached by a wolf so much that I feared that I was going to lose my life. The creature was definitely really big and the eyes screamed of the many horrors it was promising me.That was when I saw Damon approach and my eyes lit up. Perhaps, he would defend me but the distance from where it was to where I stood was actually really close. One wrong move and it might actually attack me and cause me a lot of pain. Fear coursed through my insides as I was already trembling.Harold, Jacob and Garrett had come from behind me as well. But they asked me to calm down.This was clearly my fault, I had thought. If I had not been busy feeding the foxes then maybe this wolf would not be here. It probably had seen me and had come for its own meal. Those were my thoughts until I saw the unexpected. The wolf had launch
Damon I could see now that we all were in league and for the first time since I was burdened with my sexuality, I finally felt relaxed. It was great to feel that I and my brothers were in this together and right now, I did not want to deny Jace anymore. If anything, I wanted to be with him, learn to love him and see where all this ends. One confusing aspect was my brothers though, they all seemed like they were prepared to go all the way with him as well and this could easily ruin all my plans. I have no idea what exactly I had been expecting but it most certainly was not that they would latch on.Well, it would be great to see where it all leads. And right now, Harold was looking really troubled. There was definitely more to the reason why he was so certain that we would not be accepted and I knew he was hiding some juicy story. One question I had right now was if Harold had attached to him a dark side. That would actually be great to talk about. That our all uptight butler has his
Jacob Alright, this was way more than I had ever thought or bargained for. The fact that everyone suddenly had fessed up made me feel like it was all over and done with. All the hiding and deceit but what I believed was the fact that everyone of us had a problem. Bad enough that Jace was a guy, how could we all belong to him? It was horrible to even begin to think with and the fact remained that I did not want to share with anyone.I had to carry, Peter insisted. The asshole that has ruined everything because of his impulsive decisions. While hearing Harold speaking to Damon. I heard when he told him that we all were going to have to reject Jace. That sounded awful but I shall have words to say later.The door to Jace's room was open slightly as I emerged from his floor and Garrett was in there. I walked over and then slightly opened the door to find Jace laying down, his head on Garrett's lap as the latter rocked him from side to side."Everything okay?" I asked him."Yes. I guess h
Damon I already had enough of the pretext as I walked away. At some point on my way downstairs, I decided that it was all good and I returned."Ah, Damon, I'm glad you returned. You know we can talk about this." Harold said to me."Come on, bro. We cannot keep hiding secrets and I know that you're not a traitor, so you shouldn't take what Garrett says to heart." Jacob said to me.They were definitely considering gigs in the comedy terrain because right now, I was pissed beyond measure."Secrets? You think my secret is anything like the ones I notice in the house? Yet, I trust you all so much that I am in denial." I stated."What are you talking about, son?" Harold demanded."Yeah, what are the secrets around the house?" Garrett demanded."How about this for a secret, bro. How about you explain to us what is good between you and Jace!" I demanded angrily."What is that supposed to imply?" Garrett demanded."I probably was not going to suspect anything but I have been watching. Pretend
