All Chapters of Hidden In Plain Sight : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Dora's P.O.V I had felt the need to tell Ryder everything about what I was doing and who I was and I didn't even know why. I knew he wasn't my Gabriel but I felt this special bond or something that I wasn't able to explain between us. I had wanted to ask him about the sweet little girl he had with him and when I saw that she had fallen asleep I thought that it would be the perfect time to do so. I was already ready to share my story with him after he had said what he had wanted to say but when I saw him struggling, looking for words, changing his mind, and looking again I decided that I could start telling my story so long and then when he was up to it later he could tell me about him and the little girl he is traveling with. I grabbed the stick I have been using to write everything out in the sand and started writing my story giving him time to get his words together. I was used to people looking at me funnily because I had what the humans call selective mutism. I was no stranger

Dora's P.O.V What Ryder told me had me in shock for quite some time. I knew that the rebellion was after the crown and that they would do anything to get what they wanted but to kidnap the miracle child of the king and the queen and keep her away from them to just bring her back to help them get the crown in the future was wrong in so many ways. Ryder helping them I didn't know if I wanted to believe him about the manipulation that he was experiencing but he did seem to care and have Mary's best interest at heart for the little while that I have seen them interact with each other. She also seems to have love for him and to have accepted him as her father even though he isn't that. Everyone was roped in to help search for this little girl when she first went missing and I remember that I had thought to myself who could be so cruel to take the little girl from her crib in the middle of the night. " Why would you do it though? I know I haven't known you long enough but to me, you see

Mary's P.O.V I wonder if Dora is the same as dad and if she can also turn into a wolf when she wants to. Dad also hasn't transformed in a while and I kind of miss it, to be honest. I liked looking at him in the wolf body. He was pretty and he didn't scare me for some reason. I heard dad talking to Dora about something he had done in the past but I didn't hear everything so I don't know what it was about. All I heard is that he was glad that he was the person who had agreed to do it as he believed that it was the best and the safest option at that point in time with the information that he had available at that point in time. I wanted to listen and maybe hear if he would talk about mom but he did not. I miss her even though I can't remember anything about her. I have this little hurt in my heart whenever I think about mum and I didn't know why. I had asked dad once and he tried to explain but I could see that he was hurting when he talked about

Dora's P.O.V When I woke up I was pleasantly surprised because usually, I would have the biggest headache from all the crying that I would be doing before passing out from exhaustion. When I went into the bathroom to go and wash my face to hide the evidence I was surprised to not see any tear streaks anywhere on my face. Come to think of it I didn't remember crying last night. I must have been overwhelmed and over-exhausted with everything that had happened during the day and there was no need for any of this. I smiled to myself thinking it could also be because I was happy for once in my life seeing Ryder and Mary and being able to travel with them and not having to be alone and scared the whole time looking over my shoulder and worrying when would be my last day as a free woman. After I washed my face I went and got dressed in my clothes that were neatly placed outside my door when I opened it up this morning. I wanted to go and make some breakfast for all of us but when I ente

Dora's P.O.V I woke up on the bed in the house I share with Ryder and Mary. Remembering what had happened and that they had gotten so close that I didn't have the strength to continue on scared me a little. How did they find me so fast after the last trail mix-up I left them?They should have been halfway on the other side of the world looking for me unless they have someone here that warned them that I was in town. If that were the case then I have just compromised Ryder and Mary as well because their identities would also now be tied to mine in the search and even if we go our separate ways they would still get the needed information from them if they found them. Deciding that it was maybe time to part ways with them, I tried getting out of bed to leave as soon as possible but I wasn't able to. Looking over I saw that Mary had fallen asleep next to me on the bed and that if I was to continue moving I would wake her as well, and from what I have heard from Ryder if she is woken up
