All Chapters of CONCEALMENT : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Emerald I was to meet Jemma in a secluded alleyway after I went to the places that I often went to these last three months. After having wiped the memory of myself from my realtor, I went to the nearby cafe where I always had my coffee and pastries. Local grocer. The restaurant. Etc etc etc. I honestly didn't think I needed to go to all the places that I did but, unlike how I used to be, I was social. People in France were welcoming and I liked talking to them so even places I went to a few times I had to go erase my memory for fear that if my picture came up, no one would recognize it. Of course the hardest thing to erase was the restaurant. I truly found that place as where I would make a name for myself. But as I was going around I soon realized that it made sense as to why fate had it that my brothers were now on my trail again. The nagging feeling I had about the prophecy- the journey I needed to fulfill- had been on hold. And if it were left to me, I would've ignored it for th

EmeraldSIX MONTHS LATER...The constant blaring of my alarm, which was right next to mine, woke me from peaceful sleep. I awoke, my head deep in the plush pillows, my hair still damp from my bath last night, all over the place. I was honestly grateful for this plush queen sized bed, it was absolutely heavenly. Which only made it harder for me to get out of bed everyday at the crack of dawn. Easily slamming my hand on the off button of my alarm clock, I rolled over in between my sheets, soon realizing that I was again naked. Only time that I woke up naked was when the night before I had another unbearable night of hot flashes. The term "hot flashes'' couldn't even begin to describe how I felt. The fact that I found myself always getting bags of ice nearly every week for this occasion was beyond miserable.It had started off as an everyday thing, having gone on for two weeks straight. Only time I left my apartment was to go to the grocery store to get ice because I wasn't sure when th

Anonymous POV.Plans were in motion.Best trackers and high leveled wolves were put on task to find the rogue, half on foot, the other in their wolf form. While the human form once roamed the intricate town, not raising suspicion whatsoever, the others roamed the various woods that they had surrounding the small town. Garret and his father roamed on foot together, partnering up with one another to prove each other wrong. Garret still held true to the fact that there wasn't a rogue because he would've felt it along with his pack, but yet when his father gets here that's all he can feel. It didn't make sense. No ounce of distraction can make someone not feel someone crossing the border, it would've shifted the atmosphere. But nonetheless, to get his father off his back, he engaged with the search. Throughout the pack mind link, everyone was saying that they haven't spotted or smelt anything and that it was a waste of time. Obviously, Darryl had his barriers up because he remained quie

EmeraldI followed my usual routine of getting up at the crack of dawn, not naked this time, and went to work to do the morning and lunch rush. To say that I was anxious was an understatement. I didn't know what to expect. I didn't know if Rhoda saying that she hadn't seen anyone around the diner would cause them to not check back in. I was confused and I was nervous and I couldn't wrap my head around intentionally staying to finish this journey, to finish this prophecy. Whatever that is and whatever that may be. As I worked, it was easy for my mind to get off the anxious topic that had been flooding my mind since yesterday. I focused on the customers and fulfilling orders and at lunchtime, switching with a coworker to work the kitchen. Having been in the kitchen for three hours, cooking nonstop, it wasn't until two in the afternoon that I finally got to breathe. Considering it was the end of my shift, I still went onto the floor to see if any help was needed with cleaning. Rhoda ha

Garret stood outside her apartment alone. Trying hard. Trying so hard that it gave him a headache that he didn't succeed. It was impossible, that's all that came to mind. An apartment that he couldn't hear through, something else was up and he needed to know what. It crossed his mind to go up there himself and figure it out but he refused. He needed to remain patient, as much as his body wanted to act upon everything- he didn't. He looked up to the window that didn't give any sound, feeling as if he was being watched but didn't see anyone. Shaking his head in confusion, he vowed to try again tomorrow and see where it would lead him. Are you really just going to let her go? Questioned his wolf, Thadus. We need answers. In time, he says, trying to calm his wolf as much as he could. Not knowing or having any information about this girl drove him slightly crazy, and if it drove Garret crazy, it only drove Thaddeus even more. Alpha, said one of his pack members in the mind-link. We
