Kyra- Where was I? It was too dark to see anything. Blinking my eyes, I thought maybe I just had them closed, but still, I could see nothing. My body felt numb, heck even my mind did. Was I dead? The last thing I remembered was seeing George and Hunter fighting. Had he killed me? Just as well I suppose, I hadn’t expected to come out of all of this alive. If I was dead, then Caleb must be dead also. Why didn’t the thought bother me though? I remember being torn up about it earlier. Perhaps in death, there is no pain. I could get used to that. I suffered for way too long, now I can finally know what peace is. I always thought that peace was supposed to feel good though, happy even, but I felt nothing. Should I feel something? Something was wrong, I could sense it. I knew I should feel worried or even concerned about it, yet I didn’t. My mind shifted to Hunter, still, I felt nothing. I didn’t know if I liked that, I remembered how I used to feel with him and I w

Kyra- Feeling as if the fight was leaving my body, I stopped struggling. The pain was too much to take. My skin felt like it was being torn from my body. Nothing I was doing was working. Still, I heard my mother's words echoing in my head, on constant repeat. As much as I didn’t want to give up, I didn’t know what else to do. Nothing in my life has ever gone right, I was just one big living disaster. It had been easier to feel the numbness. At least then I wouldn’t feel so hopeless right now. If only there was some way to figure out what I was supposed to do. My thoughts were racing, I just couldn’t make sense of any of it. “How can I help?” I heard Caleb’s voice fill my head. “Tell me how to fight the darkness. Everything I try is useless. I am supposed to remember who I am and where I come from, but I don’t know what any of that even means. How does that help me?” I whimpered. “You are the light that the darkness engulfs, you are stronger th

Kyra-I didn’t need to question Hunter, I was a little curious myself. Would I still look like I always had? Would I be able to still see Alexia in me? Even if she technically was me, I could never forget the connection I had with Alexia.Real or not, she was as real to me as anything else. She had been my only friend for most of my life. To think she was never really there disturbed me mildly. In one graceful motion, I was once again back in my wolf form. It definitely felt different this time.Instead of feeling like I was just a passenger in Alexia when I shifted, I truly felt like a wolf. I could feel the wind flowing through my fur and sending light tingles over my flesh. I could feel the ground under my paws and the fine blades of grass being flattened under me.I had always loved shifting into Alexia and letting her run free, this was so much better though. Now I felt like I was free and my human flesh was merely a cage I had been trapped in.

Hunter-My father was getting on my nerves. Not only did he start the fight with Nick, he deliberately broke the door to make a point. It took hours to get them out. If it wasn’t fortified steal I would have just broken through the door, but even wolves had their limits. After four long grueling hours I finally got everyone out.We were on our way home, walking since many were too tired to shift. I could sense my father wanted to say something, but I was praying he wouldn’t. I was already livid, if he opened his mouth I was half tempted to deck him. I had more important things going on at the time than dealing with his tantrum.Nick had said there hadn’t been a problem getting him there. The problem arose afterward. Apparently, it dawned on him that I was fighting a battle without him, once again and it ticked him off. When Nick tried to keep him from leaving, he had acted out trying to rile everyone up. While Nick was busy trying to deflate th

Hunter-As soon as I spoke the words, I watched Kyra. I was taking a back seat to everything and could only watch through my wolf’s eyes. It was a little weird, to be honest. Not weird in the sense that it bothered me, but weird that I had no control over where I was looking.I have never actually experienced it when Ace was with another wolf. I have seen other wolves though when they mated. I knew what was to be expected. They tend to become a bit vicious with their conquest. Biting and clawing while they ravaged their mates.Most she-wolves would cry and whimper when their mate took them. Though I think it was generally by force. Wolves don’t really care so much about the female wolf when mating. They get what they need and don’t care how it affects the other.I was sure Ace would be more cautious though. At least I hoped so. We both knew that Kyra has already been through so much lately and the last thing he wanted was to harm her any
