ABBY{Saturday, a day after the blood moon}The silence was deafening. … ====°====…The FBI was waiting at the Lockwood signpost to arrest Mr. Gordon and the Chesterfields when we arrived. The rest of us went to a house on the outskirts of the town, where the sheriff's family and Jasmine were waiting for us.I was numb when I saw Jasmine. She ran towards us with a wide grin and squeezed Ashley and me in a bear hug, but we didn't smile back. We couldn't even fake it. There was nothing to smile about.Molly remained in the car, sobbing quietly and avoiding eye contact, while Jacob left with his pack.Trevor walked past me with a dour expression and dried up tears on his face. He avoided my gaze as we entered the sheriff's car and headed to Tiffany's house to break the news. The horrific image of Tiffany staring into my eyes in her last moments might never leave my mind. Before she gasped for air the last time, I saw the look on her face. And it haunted me. Me, her best friend's sister.

ABBY{Sunday, 2 days after the blood moon}… I had never felt more excited than I felt as Blake's hands trailed up my thigh and underneath my black dress. His breath was warm against my neck, his hands firm, and his eyes hungry. He wasn't lying about wanting too much from me. He wanted every inch of my body, every portion of my being. He wanted me. I felt every bit of it from the way his hands moved with so much certainty. With so much confidence. He wasn't confused about anything. He knew what he wanted. He wanted me.I asked him to make me forget everything. And that's exactly what he did. … ====°====…“Hey, you,” Blake said softly as he kissed my forehead. “You need to get back to the sheriff's house before he comes looking for you. It's getting dark.”“I don't want to go,” I muttered as I lay on his chest. “I want to stay here forever.”“I want to stay here forever with you,” he grinned. “But since the sheriff is your new dad. I think you should get home before he locks me up for

ABBY{Monday, 3 days after the blood moon}“You may ignore me. You may hide from me. But you won’t be able to avoid me. What chance do you stand against Kismet? I’m coming for you, Abby. We are bound to each other,” Anthony Gordon whispered as he appeared in my dream.I woke up with goosebumps over my body, and my heart was racing as I tried to catch my breath. Ashley and my mom were asleep beside me, so I tried to manage my breathing to avoid waking them. But the image of Anthony Gordon emerging from flames was too scary. So, I ran to the bathroom, washed my face, and threw up. I sniffled in between deep breaths as I attempted to compose myself. Seeing any of the Gordons was enough to ruin a person’s day. It ruined my day.… ====°====…I didn't see myself running through the forest in my dreams anymore. I didn't feel an unusual hunger or rage. I didn't feel superhuman strength. Nor did I have heightened senses. It appeared that I wasn't a werewolf anymore. That must be what they tra

ABBY{Monday, 3 days after the blood moon}“Anthony Gordon?” Blake asked. “How is that possible? He’s dead. He died in Jericho’s base when we set it on fire.”“He keeps appearing in my mind,” I said as I rubbed my temples. “He said we’re bound. And I can’t hide from him. He said he’s coming for me.”Blake paced the room with his hands on his waist. “Stay here, Abby,” he said as he put on his shirt and walked towards the front door. “I’ll be right back.”“Wait!” I yelled. “We’ve been stressing about Mr. Gordon, his brother, and Project Jericho every day since last week. Let’s just have one day to ourselves. Don’t go anywhere.”He stared at me for a while, contemplating what I said. “You're the one having these visions,” he said. “I need to go after Anthony Gordon before he comes after you.”“Don't worry about me,” I said. “I'm fine. Let's get back to the menu.”Blake stared at the front door for too long. It made me think he didn't want to go only because of Anthony Gordon. It was as i

ABBY{Monday, 3 days after the blood moon}Trevor’s face, which had frequently been emotionless since the blood moon finally showed some emotion as he stared at me. He showed remorse. “I’m sorry for blaming you for Tiffany’s death,” he said. “It was too much on me. But I know it wasn’t easy for you either. So, I’m sorry. Tiffany was my first love. Seeing you put a sword through her stomach just… it messed with my mind.”“Well, you were my first love,” I retorted. “And if seeing me stab her messed with your mind, imagine what it did to me, having to be continually reminded that I killed her. I don’t need your pity, nor do I need an apology from you, Trevor. Just leave me alone.”“I understand if you want to avoid speaking to me, and I’m sorry,” he said. “But there’s something really important I need to tell you.”“Well, there’s somewhere really important I need to go right now,” I said and turned to walk away.“It’s about Blake,” he said. “There’s something you need to know about Blak

ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}The sheriff’s wife and daughter were sitting by my bed when I opened my eyes. The sheriff was standing by the window. And the ray of light that entered through the curtain when he opened it was what woke me up.“Good morning, Abby,” his wife said as she handed me a glass of water.His daughter stared at me keenly as I took the glass and drank from it. “What’s happening?” I asked, feeling uneasy about how they stared at me. “I don't remember falling asleep. How did I even get here? Last I remember, I was on the stairs.”“Please give us a moment,” the sheriff said to his wife as he kissed her forehead. “Of course,” she smiled weakly and left the room with their daughter.“When I saw you,” the sheriff said. “You were above the ground and gasping for air. I was terrified… I didn’t know what to do... But when I held you and brought you down, you kept mentioning Anthony Gordon. So, I need to tell me what that was about.”I felt the sharp pain at

ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon}Blake left the school before the teachers could enter the cafeteria. The boys from the football team took Trevor to Lockwood General Hospital. And the sheriff came to the school to pick me up because Jasmine called him to say I was having a concussion. I wasn’t.“Did you see Anthony again?” The sheriff asked as I entered the front passenger seat of his car, and Jasmine got in the back.“Yes,” I said. “It was worse this time. I think he might be close to Lockwood. We need to do something about him.”“Xavier is at the station waiting for us,” the sheriff said. “But before we get there, what happened between Blake and Trevor? I heard Trevor was messed up pretty bad.”“Trevor claimed he knew something about Blake,” I sighed. “And Blake didn’t want me to hear about it. So, they got into a fight.”“I don’t understand how you don’t see Blake as a bad influence,” the sheriff scoffed. “I don’t understand how you don’t see him as a bad person in gener

ABBY{Tuesday, 4 days after the blood moon} The sheriff seemed restless as Xavier left the station. He kept pacing around his office and scratching his head as he thought to himself. “Don’t you think it’s kind of weird?” The sheriff asked. “They want you to be Alpha all of a sudden. But they also think you need five days of training. If they felt you weren’t fit, why did they consider you in the first place?”“And why can’t the pack protect you until you become Alpha?” Jasmine added. “Unless there’s some underlying factor. Something they haven’t told you yet.”“Well, if they intend to use me,” I said. “I intend to use them as well. Once we defeat Mr. Gordon and end Project Jericho, I’ll tell them I don’t want to be Alpha anymore.”“Don’t you think the Alpha proposal might be connected to Project Jericho somehow?” The sheriff asked. “The suddenness of everything is uncanny.”“But you’re the one who told me to accept the Alpha proposal, remember?” I asked. “And you’re the one who aske

ABBY{Friday, new beginnings}The sunrise had never been as beautiful as it was when I woke up. Ashley and my parents agreed last night to stay in Lockwood since I would rather not move with them to Westview, so it was a breath of fresh air to wake up to the sound of Ashley snoring, as it was before Project Jericho made its way to Lockwood. Trevor and I also got a chance to talk after Blake left the town. So, as I woke up that morning, I woke up as Trevor's girlfriend, and he, my boyfriend. A new beginning for both of us.I was pissed that I still had those werewolf genes in me, though I was glad I wouldn't have to worry about Mr. Gordon anymore. My dad and I finally talked last night about how being a werewolf was when he was growing up. He asked me not to view the wolf as an entirely different being, but as an extension of myself or an alter ego, if I preferred. He said the only way to tame it was to become one with it. So, when I slept last night, I saw the wolf in my dream.
Twin Souls Chapter 62
ABBY{Thursday, 6 days after the blood moon}It would've been foolish to think Mr. Gordon would leave without a fight, and I wasn't a fool. Neither was Molly. I would've preferred it if Mr. Gordon took out the wolf genes from my body as he did my sister before they made him leave, but Molly wasn't keen on listening to anyone. She believed I would find a way to control the wolf, a way to speak to it and tame it. But I didn't think so. Even if the wolf could be tamed, I didn't know if I wanted to. Taming it would mean constantly carrying it in me, fighting to suppress it every day, every night, and every full moon. How long could I keep up with that? I wondered. How long till the wolf refuses to be suppressed? How long until I became a monster?“Abby? Are you okay?” Blake asked as he gently stroked my arm. “Just a little tense,” I sighed. “Molly should be back by now. They should all be back.”“Speak of the devil,” Blake grinned as the sheriff's car approached, leading a convoy of

ASHLEY{Thursday, 6 days after the blood moon}I was woken by the unsettling sound of someone wheezing beside me, and I noticed something which felt like a pipe in my throat as I opened my eyes. Peter removed the Venturi mask on my face and carefully pulled out a tube from my mouth as he struggled to stop himself from wheezing. I coughed and gasped for air as I tried to stand up, and Peter rubbed my back to ease the cough. Apart from the sound of both of us coughing, three beeping monitors were in the room. Some of the monitors were connected to my arm with wires I just pulled out, and there were wires on Peters's bed. He must've removed them from his arm before I woke up. “Are you okay?” Peter asked, still wheezing. “Breathe,” he said. “Just breathe.”“What's going on?” I asked, darting around the room. We must've been unconscious for a while, seeing as I could barely remember a thing. “We need to get out of here,” he said. “This is about the time they come to sedate us. We nee

ABBY{Wednesday, 5 days after the blood moon}I could barely hear the drumming over the sound of my heart beating loudly in my ears. Trevor stood with Omari as I entered the circle to meet Blake, and I saw the fear in his eyes as he looked at me, even after I said I trusted him. Omari howled, and everyone followed as the full moon emerged from the clouds. I saw Blake pull a dagger out of his jacket pocket, and I felt my muscles expanding and my bones shifting. My vision blurred, and everything around me seemed red as I fought within myself to remain in control. For an instant, it seemed as though everything moved in slow motion, and I was a spectator rather than an actor. It felt like I was watching my body take form and move without me being able to control it.Blake took off his jacket as his fingers turned to claws, and lunged at me with the dagger, cutting me on my arm and pushing me to the ground. He wasn't fazed by how quickly I got back up, and I didn't feel pain from th

BLAKE{Wednesday, 5 days after the blood moon}I glanced at all the rooms in the base through the monitors, and I was amazed at how lightly guarded they were, as opposed to how it was before the blood moon. My dad, unconscious, was in one room, Ashley and Peter in another. The Chesterfields were in the hallway, arguing about something, and... My eyes widened as I saw Henry Luther and his wife in another room with Venturi tubes on their faces. “Yes,” Mr. Gordon grinned, noticing the shock on my face. “It's going to be a big family reunion tomorrow,” he said. “Abby and her parents, you, and your dad. Everyone would be happy in the end. Don’t you think?”What did I think? Well, he didn’t know what was coming. “I’ll bring them tomorrow,” I muttered. “And my dad better be in good shape.”“Not you won’t,” he grinned. “You see, I don’t trust you, Blake. Stay in your house, and I’ll send your dad to you once I see Abby and Trevor. If I don’t see them in my base tomorrow, and I have to find

MOLLY{Wednesday, 5 days after the blood moon}“Well, we didn’t have to wait too long to meet again,” Abby grinned as I entered the house. “We didn’t,” I tittered and looked away.I wish I could’ve stayed away, but the thought of the Gordons still breathing didn’t sit right with me. Abby beamed as she stared at me. My presence must’ve been somewhat comforting to her. She needed a distraction to take her mind off the elephant in the room, or rather, the wolf in her body, but I wasn’t there to give her comfort. I clarified it for Blake as much as it was clear to me that the only reason I was in Lockwood was for vengeance. As I looked at Trevor behind Abby, I envied them because I knew they could still have their whole love story when the issue with Project Jericho was over. If they wanted. Abby could even have Blake if she wanted to, but who did I have? What did I have apart from vengeance to keep my heart pumping? I had nothing. Nothing at all. I didn’t tell Blake what my mom saw
Twin Souls Chapter 57
BLAKE{Wednesday, 5 days after the blood moon}The only thing worse than losing a loved one is losing another, knowing you could've prevented it. I wish I could’ve done more for Kelvin before he died, but even in his last moments, I was busy carrying Abby and caring so much about her well-being instead of him. We fought each other a lot in this lifetime. Him joining the shadow clan, and me, remaining in the pack. But watching him die was difficult, knowing it wasn't one of Molly's illusions. When I accepted Kelvin’s death, I knew that the only family I had left was my dad. So I had to get him back, no matter what.As I drove down to the Lockwood signpost to wait for Molly, I knew I wanted nothing more than to leave Lockwood behind and everything in it. My feelings for Abby aside, I had nothing else to do in that town. And loving her wouldn't compensate for how miserable I felt. Molly and I had already agreed that the only thing we had to do in Lockwood was to find my dad and ave
Twin Souls Chapter 56
ABBY{Wednesday, 5 days after the blood moon}Perhaps it wasn't so bad to be loved by more than one person, and maybe it's not outrageous to love them back. Blake and Trevor were very divergent people. Different views, different interests, and different ways of expressing themselves. The ever-erratic Blake, and the calm, collected Trevor. One, an Alpha werewolf. The other, a normal teenager. It worried me that I would come to a point where I had to choose between them because I knew what my decision might’ve been.Perhaps if I wasn't so good at being loved, I wouldn't have had to decide in the first place. “Let's get you back to the house before Omari sends his goons after us,” Blake sighed as he turned on the car and steered it into the road. “Molly has mastered control over her wolf instincts, and I can't remember the last time she turned. Maybe she could help you with that when she arrives:”I didn't know if I wanted to tame the wolf as much as I wanted to get rid of it, but I h
Twin Souls Chapter 55
ABBY{Wednesday, 5 days after the blood moon}I was terrified by the dark thing that slept in me as I struggled to wake up. I saw myself running in the woods from a wolf with green eyes like mine, but I couldn't get far before it caught up with me. I was scared when the wolf turned human and approached me because I was standing face-to-face with myself. Other werewolves were one with their wolf, but the wolf in me had a mind of its own. The last thing I saw before walking up was Xavier, covered in blood on the ground and begging me to stop.When I opened my eyes, I saw Omari sitting on my bed with a strange bottle and glass of water. “Good morning, Abby,” he grinned as he gave me the glass. “How do you feel?I finished the water in a single gulp and tried to get up, but a sharp pain in my head stopped me. “What happened?” I asked as I lay back on the bed. “I don't remember falling asleep.”“Do you remember almost killing my son?” he asked. Not accusingly, nor did he sound angered. H
