I hurried over to where he was and before I could reach him, he turned around and our gaze locked.
I stopped walking and folded my arms.
"Why did you call him here? Why did you tell him all that?" I asked perturbed and he gave a cunning smile.
"Why do you sound so pissed? I'm just telling him so he won't be worried about you. You know how much he cares about you." He was all smug and I didn't believe that that was his reason for speaking to Jared.
I walked around the room in a panic exit but suddenly i reached for my pockets.
"Where's my phone?" I queried stepping closer to him.
He smirked and tilted his head.
"I'll hand it to you after you have breakfast with me." He replied and I scoffed.
He is completely out of his mind.
I need to leave this place. Especially with Jared on the way. Things can't go down like this.

Jared was taking harsh breaths with his fists clenched. Something's not right. Jared is a warrior training at the pack house with the other eligible werewolves. How come he was completely at Keiran's mercy?My gaze drifted from him to Keiran whom just said the dumbest thing I've ever heard.That gets should be gentle with me? Sometimes I don't understand what Keiran is after. He hurts me a lot but at the same time, he acts like a caring freak.His mom once mentioned something about him being a psycho. Maybe this is just how he is. Abnormal in his own way."Don't you ever!" Jared barked and threw an unexpected punch on Keiran's face making him bed his head the other side.My brother pounced on him hitting him with his cruel fists. They both fall on the ground and Keiran remained helpless as Jared beat him up. It was like he didn't care and he doesn't even try to fight back.I stood
Umbrie's pov.I held onto the door knob, carefully eased it before going into the house. I kicked my shoes off my legs before proceeding towards the living room."Umbrie! You're home." Mom said excitedly while holding a couple of plates in her hands. I nodded my head slowly and walked over taking the plates from her."Yes, you're so loud." I chuckled moving with her to the dining table."How was your talk with Alpha Damien?" Dad asked immediately i sat next to Sky.I smiled. "It was pretty good. No problem at all."Jared was also at the table and he had a good face. And by good, I mean he looked happy and easygoing.He should really adopt this look.The dinner was heated as well started eating the sumptuous meal mom prepared. It was lively, hell, Jared even laughed the loudest. Sky kept making jokes about when he comes
I was still up, unable to give in to sleep. Though it has been a shiitty day, I still couldn't end it once and for all. I had a warm bath so it'd make me feel more compelled to sleep but it didn't work, apparently. I found myself walking to Sky's room aware that everyone must be in their room right now. I stood by the door and eavesdropped on the voices behind it. It was that of Keiran and Sky. It sounded like they were playing video games with the comments they were making. I stood there for about five minutes, leaning on the door and just letting time pass by. It was at that point that the door drastically opened and I almost fell over if not for someone grabbing me by my wrist. I quickly stood erect to see Keiran staring at me. "What the... What are you doing here?" He asked looking stunned. I went ahead to enter the room and he shut the door behind us.
I spoke to Hillary but he wasn't of any help. He didn't know why Keiran left too and he's planning to go see him in his house.Daphne was the first to speak after Hillary had left."What's going on, Umbrie? What do you have with this Keiran guy? So far I've heard about him, he has been away for six months. What are you going to do now?" She asked sounding worried."I will tell you everything later. Let's just...let's just get to class." I gulped walking past her.She was looking blown off but I was too down to pay attention to her.Keiran is behaving strange, I must admit and I need to find out why...After a tough day at school, I decided to visit him before going to study class. Unfortunately, I left without Daphne knowing and I switched off my phone to prevent her calls too.I just had to handle this alone. She's a human and she can't be involved in every part of my life, yet.
• Jared's POV •It was finally my turn and I entered the meeting room. The door automatically shut on its own and I saw the old lady sitting opposite the wooden carved table. She had her back against me but I was able to notice her grey hair which was more shinier than it was before."You wolverine. I haven't seen one since today." She said, her voice strong like that of a young woman.She must be using a spell because someone her age should be dead by now.I coyly paced around before taking a seat on a bench.The whole place was heavily decorated with native ornaments like during ancient times."What do you know about me, mother?" I asked fixating my eyes at her back."I know this is not the real reason you are here but anyway... I know you are yet to be blessed by the moon goddess and it infuriates you." She replied and chuckled slightly.She
"Keiran, where were you?" I asked with my arms folded. He sighed and stepped away from the window."I just wanted some time alone. Don't you ever feel like being alone once in a while?""Don't reply me with questions, Keiran. You have been behaving strange since you returned. Is that really you, Keiran? You can't even tell me where you were for the past six months?..." I paused when I realized this conversation was going nowhere.He is like a fat rock that won't budge.I took a deep breath as he remained mute.I know what to do...Leaving his room, I slammed the door so hard.I found myself heading to the club where he normally spends time drinking with his friends. As I entered the unfriendly place, I could see girls doing a poll dance and some guys smoking around.I approached the two sitting at a table. It was Hi
Sky tapped on my shoulder and I pulled away from the plate. He grabbed my empty plate and dropped it on his before walking out of the dinning.I was now left alone with Jared whom was sitting across the table. He was on his phone and I gathered my things in my school bag."Umbrie, your best friend is Daphne, right?" He asked and I nodded."You have to be careful with her. You don't even know her well enough, alright? I saw her visiting the old witch. People like that are not good people." He said and I arched my brows.Daphne..."What are you doing at the witch's place anyway?" I asked smirking at him."I was um... None of your business." He got up, picked up a bouquet of flowers before leaving with it.I smiled when I realized they must be for Tiana.I rushed out to take the uber i called. When he arrived, I got in and he to
• Umbrie's POV •It has been a while since I visited the hospital and I never missed it for once.I was sitting on a chair next to the bed Keiran laid on with his eyes closed. He has been unconscious since we returned from Rolpines and the doctor — Alpha Damien told us he was starved, dehydrated, malnourished and too stressed.He had to give him some vitamin shots.The rogues escaped and the detective decided not to file a case because Alpha Damien spoke to him against it. I think it's the best thing to do too.Keiran was kidnapped but a lot could go wrong if a rogue was put in prison. The chaos would be too much.The chaos was already too much since the fake Keiran has been taken to the pack house.The weird part was that he still looked like Keiran and I guess whatever spell or potion he was using was yet to rub off him.Just then, Keiran
