History:Nora wandered into the kitchen. It would be minutes now for the other packs to start to arrive. Lori had whipped up something to make it more casual. Even though they would be talking of war, food always seemed to make everything better. Nora reached over and plucked a red grape off its vine and bit into it. She zoned out everything rushing into her mind.“It's not good to hold things in constantly.” Lori said softly.“I’m just worried.” Nora said, grabbing another grape.“War is scary, that's normal to be worried.” Lori said with a small smile.“It's not the war part that scares me. I’m worried I can't keep them all safe.” Nora said, hearing it outloud made her stomach clench inwards on itself.The rush to vomit again hit her. She turned, grabbing a hold of the sink and preparing to empty her stomach. She turned on the sink, cupped her hands and let them fill with water. She splashed the water over her face. Trying to let the cold water chase away the feeling. “Luna, you wi

Wrong: A few moments later maps were sprawled out across the dining room table. All territories joined at the valley. Lance and Bruce’s territories were north east of the valley. Nora's eyes traced the valley. Zeke was to the west, Chadwick to the south, and Jace with Noras’s pack were south east. Silver mountain with Douglas was northwest. The council would have to travel downwards to get to them. She watched Jace go over this with Asher and Logan. He was trying to see what pack would be willing to travel north to loop around them, just in case Douglas backed out on them. They needed to cover all bases. Their voices blurred together and Nora started to feel sick. The constant nagging of this was her fault and strangled her heart. It wrapped around her lungs, choking her. She began to feel her light headed and vision blurred. She didn't want to pull Jace away from the meeting. She quietly excused herself into the kitchen. Water. Zara yelled at her. Nora nodded as she fumbled towa

Leaving:Jace Walked out of the room shutting the door quietly. He didn't want to wake up, he wasn't sure what just happened but he was shaken to his core. When he couldn't find her she panicked. The only other time he felt fear like that was when he thought he had lost her. He paused outside the door listening for her. He could hear her steady heart beat and her breathing. He let out a breath and ran his hands over his face, trying to calm himself some more. He straightened up and put on a strong face and headed down stairs.“What the heck was that?” Dante asked in a whisper coming over to Jace.“I don't know exactly.” Jace answered.Asher came over along with Logan both their faces filled with concern. Jace studied them, debating on what he wanted to say.“I;m not sure what just happened. It was like she was stuck in a nightmare. She was saying things about how she saw everyone gone. I don't know what that means. She is upstairs resting. Everyone is to leave her be.” Jace said, look

City Lights:Zara put her nose to the air tracking the scent of the three council members. She raced off into the distance. The moonlight light is still lighting the way to go. She knew she was far outside their pack's territory now. The air felt different, the ground was harder,and everything shifted. She just couldn't tell if they were in Bruce’s territory or Lance’s. Everything smelt like both Bruce and Lance. She kept to the path the moon set for her.“If we were headed to Lance’s shouldn't we start smelling the ocean?” Nora said inside their mind.“That’s what I was thinking. I’m starting to smell …like city air. The world opens up near the ocean but this doesn't look like that. It looks like we will be hitting a…. City.” Zara said as she stopped short at the edge of the forest.As if she summoned it with her thoughts a black tar road appeared leading the way to a city. The city seems to sparkle and shimmer in the distance.“City Lights, we are at Bruce’s pack. Lance must have c

Gone:“I just reject him and it goes away?” Nora asked, sounding like she was curious.“Yup it will hurt but the mark will burn off. Few seconds poof gone.” Lance said, looking her up and down.Nora gritted her teeth, Zara began howling inside of her as she felt Nora debating it. Lance leaned against the wall folding his arms across his chest looking at her skeptically. Nora fidgeted slightly.‘If you don't reject him, how is this going to work? I doubt you would want to be bound to him. If everything you have told me has been the truth.” Lance said anger bubbling inside of him, as he looked at Nora with narrowed eyes.“How do you reject someone?” Nora asked, delaying it more.Nora, we can't reject our mate. I do not know if I can let you. It hurts..it hurts just thinking about. Zara whined inside of her.Nora felt her chest tense up and she felt like she was getting out of breath. Zara’s panic and pain rushed into her. The back of ehr neck started to feel warm and it started to spre
