The delta whom I had brought with me to repair the window at Alpha Elijah’s house, nearly dropped the side of the glass pane that he was carrying, and it was safe for me to say that I almost lost my shit. It is not everyday that we need to replace a window of this magnitude, and the fact that we had even had a glass of this size was a miracle in itself. I also knew for a fact that this was the only one that there was, and if something were to happen to it, then we would not be able to repair the window. “Sorry. It slipped.” I decided that I was not going to respond to the delta, believing that it would be better for both of us if I kept quiet. I did not want to say something that would make him purposely break the window, because that would defeat the object. As much as I would have liked to give him a peace of my mind, I knew that it was not worth it. It was not worth it at all. We were almost at Alpha Elijah’s house, and I had to admit that it was something that I was thankful fo

“Let’s start off with an easier question. Maybe then, you’ll be willing to answer me. What is your name?” I didn’t know whether or not the approach that I was taking now, was going to be the right one to take, but I was hoping for the best. Up until now, I had been receiving nothing more than cocky responses, and it was safe for me to say that I was not happy with it. Not even in the slightest. “Celia.” Even though her answer was rather blunt, I could not help but send a silent prayer of thanks to the moon goddess for this small mercy. I knew that it was important for me not to jump the gun, but it was something that I couldn’t help. I considered this to be a sign of hope. And even if I just kept her talking about the insignificant things, hopefully it would build up her trust in me and enable me to figure out what was going on outside of our pack borders. “Celia. That is a nice name, although you don’t look like a Celia to me.” “I get that a lot.” I had to admit that that was n

I couldn't deny the fact that I found it rather odd that Matthew was doing what he was doing. After all, he had his own responsibilities to attend to, yet, he was neglecting them in order to do what? To go for a run with me? It did not feel right. Even though I had already labelled the window as repaired, it still felt wrong that he was just choosing to leave everyone to their own devices. It was just one delta, but you could never be too sure. I did not want him to get in trouble for this later, because I had the feeling that Gwen would not be as accepting of what was happening as you would think her to be. After all, she was the one who was undoubtedly busy doing all of the hard work and going through all of the effort of interrogating that rogue - and I knew that it was not going to be an easy task. I had seen the way that the two of them had been riling one another up, the way that they had been pushing each other to the edge. I had no doubt in my mind that things were not going

Even though I was somewhat frustrated with what had happened between Samantha and I, there had been a part of me that had known that it would happen. I didn’t know how to explain it, but the moment that I had suggested for us to do it, it had been practically impossible for me to think about anything other than the fact that I should not be doing it. I could predict that I felt like this because of one of two reasons, but there was no way for me to know for sure which of the two it was. Firstly, there had been a part of me that had been aware of the fact that Samantha was freshly shifted and it was not actually acceptable for me to be bothering her as soon as I had been. But it had almost felt as if that was something that did not apply in that particular situation, due to the fact that she had been the one who had come to us. I had interpreted it that she had wanted to come and see me - which might have been the first mistake that I had made. But the second possibility, was the one

Telling Matthew that he could stay here, felt like it was going to be nothing more than a rather large mistake. I didn't want him to be here, because I did not want him involved in this matter. The fact that he had gone as far as threatening to tell Luke about what had happened, had been enough to make me question whether or not Matthew was one of the few who had been turned against Alpha Elijah. I knew that it was not right for me to jump to conclusions, but it felt like I couldn't help it, like it was out of my control. Before he had made that statement of his, there hadn't been so much as an ounce of suspicion in my soul, but now, I felt like it was the only thing that I could feel towards him. Even though my thoughts were running wild, even though they were practically wreaking havok, I was still able to remind myself that there were other matters at hand, that I could do something other than to think about the possible betrayal from Matthew. It was something that was easier said
