The next day, even though I knew that I wouldn't see Katie, I went to the place where we used to meet up. Memories of me and Katie flooded my mind and made me miss her all the more. I blinked away some tears. Would I ever see her again? My eyes fell on the spot where I proposed to her, a letter had been placed underneath a stone. I bent down and picked it up. It looked a bit battered, but it was still readable. The letter was addressed to me. I opened the envelope to read it, and my heart stopped. The letter was from Katie, she was writing to tell me that she was expecting and that I was the father. All common sense left me and I made my way to the village. I needed to see Katie. I didn't care who I would have to fight to get to her. I knew that her mother was the high priestess and that they lived in the middle of the village, so that was where I was heading.

Several weeks went by. I loved having Katie as my wife. As the birth of our daughter grew closer, I became more reluctant to leave Katie's side. One day while helping Edmond repair a broken fence. My mind was preoccupied and I accidentally used too much force hammering the wood panel. It broke into several pieces. Edmond made his way over to me and picked up the broken pieces scattered on the ground. “What troubles you? You haven't been acting like yourself lately?” I scanned the area and conjured up a new wood panel before meeting his gaze. “It’s just… I’m worried about Katie and our baby. I keep feeling like something bad is going to happen and that I will lose them.” Edmond gave me a reassuring smile. “It’s completely natural to be scared.” He handed me a nail and

My consciousness slammed back into my body. It took some time for me to realise that I was back with Cassie by my side. "I had a baby." I whispered quietly, mostly to myself. "A beautiful baby girl." Cassie turned to look at me. "It was you, it was always you, in my dreams. I wasn't sure, but it was actually you. It actually happened." What was she talking about? Then a light went off in my head. Cassie is Katie. Somehow she must have experienced the memories of us too. I gave her a hug. "I found you." I wasn't sure whether I was referring to the fact that I had finally located Cassie or that I had finally found the missing part of my soul, either way I was happy. Holding on to Cassie, I looked around the area, trying to figure out where we were. Everything was dark.

I teleported us back to the house, but when we got there, the house was empty. Adrenalin rushed into my body and I jumped when Leah placed her hands on my shoulders. She gazed into my eyes. “Calm down. The wolves wouldn’t have wanted to come inside.” I closed my eyes and nodded my head. She was right. I followed Leah out to the back garden. There were still no signs of Cassie or the wolves. A repetitive banging rang in my ears and I rushed towards it. Leah followed behind. It led us into the forest and to the edge of the estate. Several people were there, which I assumed to be wolves. Most of them were wearing nothing more than a pair of trousers, despite the chilly weather. When we got closer, they turned and stared at us. I could hear continuous growls coming from several of them, which stopped me in my tracks.

Leah turned up a few hours later. She told us Mark and Seth were going to stay at home and hopefully that would keep Abigail from becoming suspicious. It meant that the wolves would have to look over Cassie without Mark, however he had already told them to meet us at the cabin. I left Leah in the house while I teleported Cassie to the cabin. It didn't have any electricity, so I lit up a few candles and waited for the wolves to turn up. I didn't have to wait long. After I had made sure that they were happy to watch over Cassie, I teleported back to Leah. "Are you ready for this?" I asked as I grabbed her hand. "As ready as can be" she said before I teleported us to the city and the Whitelock industry building. When we arrived in the alleyway, the streets were almost e
