CHARLENE'S POVShe stroked them gently over my arms like she's done so many times before. The gesture made me feel warm, relaxed, and loved. But the feeling didn't last. She said those words with an uncharacteristic coldness. And it felt so wrong that even with all my senses hyper focused on her scent, I could not tell if it was actually true. She could have been trying to comfort me, or just saying something to calm me down. Or maybe she really meant everything will be alright. That was a lie. I knew it the second she pulled away. The moment the air left her lungs, my ears perked up, catching every single sound around me. Even her breathing became amplified, and I knew she hadn't expected such sharp hearing abilities to suddenly pop up after being absent for so long. That didn't make me any less afraid though. What if one of them had followed us? They're bound to find us soon. This must have happened because we were in the forest. We had no place else to go, right? So it was only l

CHARLENE'S POVInstantly alert, I froze where I stood. What was that noise? I looked around warily, wondering which direction it had come from. It sounded awfully familiar, but I couldn't quite pinpoint where it could be coming from. There were many bushes covering the area and it took an immense amount of concentration just to pick out each leaf and branch. So how could I know when I had heard that particular cry? The only answer I could think of was that I had imagined it. Still, there was something strange about that little noise. Something that wasn't right with my ears. I decided to investigate. I slowly approached the source of the noise. I crouched, trying to see through the dense brush. Nothing but leaves. I growled impatiently. Why wouldn't someone just come out and talk to me already? Why was it taking so long? I grumbled angrily in my throat, hoping it would be louder enough for the person to hear. I needed answers. Finally, something moved. A shadow detached itself from

CHARLENE'S POVMy cheeks reddened slightly. "Are… are you okay?" I hadn't been sure if the girl meant to hurt anyone or not. After all, we were supposed to be asleep. Maybe she'd been too angry to realize what she was doing. But now that she seemed calm, I didn't want to scare him off again. Plus, I liked talking to him. If anything, I figured he could use someone to talk to. He let out a soft chuckle, "Sure am, kid. And thanks. Sorry for waking you up." "It's no big deal," I assured him quickly. It wasn't any fun being scared in the middle of the night, especially when you're tired, but hey, you never knew if the person in front of you might be dangerous or not. "Did you happen to hear the noise, or see anything suspicious happening? It sounded like glass breaking." It was a good thing I stayed home tonight. Being in my house alone would've given me quite a fright. Pete shook his head. "No, I thought I heard it, but nothing really happened," he replied. "I did notice a guy st

CHARLENE'S POVThe door opened. A boy with spiky black hair walked in. He wore jeans with rips in them. He looked like he'd just escaped from some sort of punk rock band. As soon as he saw my face, he froze. A look of horror flashed across his face. He quickly closed the door behind him. I tried to move and cried out in pain as the movement jolted my head. "Whoa there. Easy to do." His voice seemed much louder than he should've been capable of. He moved forward slowly. When he reached my bedside, he sat on the edge. "Are you alright?" He sounded so scared. The look on his face said, 'you don't have any reason to be afraid of me.' I thought he was an angel. But angels aren't supposed to sound scared, are they? And he wasn't acting like one. In fact, the only thing resembling fear I could sense in him were the taut muscles in his arms as he kept moving forward toward me. He was too tense. Too anxious. So tense, he might snap any moment. That's when I finally understood that he wasn

CHARLENE'S POVHe thinks we're incompatible. I had thought he wanted me! But the way he said it, it sounded as though he didn't want anything more than friendship and maybe s*x. I felt disappointed, hurt even, and humiliated. "It just occurred to me that your bloodline isn't completely pure," he explained, "or at least, not entirely. There's a chance, if we're compatible enough..." I couldn't help feeling hopeful. "Yes. If we are compatible, then when our souls touch." He trailed off. His eyes were sparkling. I could feel how badly he wanted me. How much he really liked me. I could see how much he was enjoying our time together. So much so that he would willingly change himself for better. I felt tears welling up inside me. I hadn't expected anything more than being friends. Not that I wouldn't be grateful and happy, of course. But still, this was so unexpected for both of us. I nodded in response to his question, not trusting my voice. "That's perfect, Charlene," he grinned. "We
