All Chapters of The Forsaken: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"Oh my Goddess, I thought he would never stop talking." Saf said as Shaun stopped rambling in the back seat. First, he didn't want to stop asking about the soulmate bond, and when he finally stopped he went back to the topic of why are we after a mere human. "I know, if he didn't shut up I would have stopped and gagged him. " I tell Saf then look over at Atlas. He had his head resting against the car window, his eyes closed but I knew he wasn't asleep. I could hear his breathing, sense his heartbeat. I couldn't help myself and I hit the window button on my door to lower it on his side making him jump up and I laugh. "Sorry, wrong button." I say as I procide to lower mine. "You know if you stayed at the mansion you would be able to get some sleep in a more comfortable position." "No I wouldn't, with you gone I wouldn't be able to close my eyes for a second." Atlas says as his hand twitches and I notice him looking at my hand. He wants to touch me, but I dont know if I want to be tou

"What do you need us to do." Atlas says without hesitation, maybe bringing him with me wasn't such a bad idea."I'm gonna jump onto the roof to get a better view of the inside, I need to find a way to muffle the sound. Distract them somehow." I take a few steps back in order to get a jump start as I make my way up to the top while Atlas and Shaun use their werewolf powers to knock a big branch that fell next to the van as I hit the rooftop."I told you he would come in handy." Saf says as I look over the age to see the two men inspecting the van. "You"l have time to say I told you so later, now we need to find Thalia." I walk over to a roof window and kneel down to get a better view. This was no ordinary warehouse, this was an illegal dog-fighting club. That is what they are doing with the dogs they take from the animal clinic and that is probably how Thalia got into this mess. She probably discovered what that man was doing, being the animal lover she is she probably tried to stop h

"Where are we going to take her, you do realise we can't bring her to the pack house. The Luna won't like any of this." Shaun says as he holds Thaila's head on his lap as we drive through the forest."I'll deal with my mother, Shaun. We need to keep an eye on her, only Goddess knows how Thalia will react once she wakes up. I need to find an expert that will help her with the transition. there has to be something in all of those books the teachers read." Atlas was taking this onto himself when he didn't need to. She is my responsibility, I need to be the one to deal with Thalia. And there is only one safe place I can take her to, my parent's house."Shaun is right, taking her to the pack house in this state would only cause a scandal. It's not like we can hide her, she is unconscious and covered in blood. I will take her back to my parent's house." I say and Atlas looks at me, his green eyes wide in surprise."I didn't think you would wanna leave her alone." "I won't, I'll stay there w

"What happened? Who is...?" Dad asked but when he got a better look at Atlas's face he stood up straight acknowledging that he was now in the presence of the future Alpha of this pack. "Do you mind if we go inside, I'll answer your questions later. Right now my friend needs help." I say as Atlas takes a step forward with Thalia in his hands. "Of course, come in," Dad says as he moves out of the way and lets us pass. As soon as I enter Mom sees me and rushes to my side while Jack looks at me from afar. "Honey, it's so good to have you back. We have a lot to talk about." Mom says as Atlas comes inside, Shaun and Dad follow behind. "Not now, ok? I need to use your bathroom to clean up my friend and If you dont mind I'd like to take her to, my room to rest until she wakes up." Mom, surprised by my cold approach steps back as she looks at the bloody girl hanging from Atlas's hands. "Master Atlas," Josh says as he finally steps forward, he looks at him and then at me. I try to avoid hi

"Would you guys mind waiting outside for a minute, I'd like to have a moment alone with her?" This is going to be difficult enough without the audience and Thalia might be a bit more comfortable with just me."Sure, we will be downstairs if you need us," Sofia said as she opened the door and basically told them to leave, but Atlas came up to me and put a hand on my shoulder. His touch is getting more and more comforting each time he does so."I'll be just outside the door, in case... you need me." His hand remains on me as Sofia watches amazed, I put my hand over his and nod my head as they all provide to leave while Thaila watches them confused."Who are all of these people?" She asked as the bang of the door made her bring her hands to her ears again. I gently take them down to her lap as she struggles to open her eyes."Thaila, look at me please." I rub her hands until she brings herself to open her eyes."I was so stupid, I should have called the police the minute I found out what
