LOGINCrystal’s POV I was taken aback. For a few seconds I was speechless. I opened my mouth expecting no sound to come out but I was wrong. "Was?" I was offended and it clearly showed. Tristan chuckled. "What's so funny?" I whined. "Why did you change your mind?" After the year Tristan and
I learnt as much as I could about leading the pack. I still didn't know how Tristan did it. I had barely just graduated high school and all these people looked at me waiting for guidance and protection. It was daunting and nerve racking but I tried my best. The AAP training helped too. I was g
Crystal’s POV (One year later) I learnt to speak in silence. At least around Tristan. When he got too quiet, I knew it was time to get him to a place of isolation where he could sit in his grief without the whole world watching him. I could tell the pack wasn't the same and though our loss
Roman still hadn't returned and I could tell Crystal was worried even though she didn't voice it out. Probably worried about what I might think. But I guess seeing as to how Roman had helped us both escape, maybe I could try to overlook my intense dislike for the guy. Meggy had gotten up sayin

Kat and I shared a confused look. "Um, okay." I spoke feeling uncertain. Aunt Sarah put her hand on my back and begun to lead me out. She then stopped. "Oh and Katherine, I know you left school early." I saw Kat flinch. "We'll talk later." She told her before she continued leading me. When
Kat clenched her fists. "Do you really think Roman might be involved with Van Cliffe's?" She asked. "I don't know." I admitted. "But I just have a feeling that this isn't a coincidence." Kat took in a deep breath. "Well there's only one way to find out." I furrowed my brows at her. She marched
"That might be so but feelings aren't evidence." She told me. "Tristan is trying to protect you. Witholding this information is an act of treason, might I remind you." Kat was right. I owed it to Tristan to tell him that Roman had contacted me. Maybe Uncle Victor was right, this might have just be
