My ragged breaths kept pace with the pounding of my heart. I haven't stopped my feet even though the pain bites almost every inch of my body. My thoughts keep going back to Vincent still squeezed in his car and the SUV. Who hit us? Who's after me? I know that at this moment someone is following me not far behind me, I can feel it."Caroline!" The sound of angry screams echoed around the forest. I stopped my feet for a moment, tried to find the source of the sound and then ran again. My heart was beating faster and faster, pumping adrenaline through my body ."Caroline! I'll find you!"The scream returned, this time closer. Now that I'm running with all the strength I have left, I don't even care about the pain in my body anymore."Caroline! Do I have to kill the guy in the car first?" The scream made my running legs slow down. "Or should I kill Alex?"This time my feet actually stopped, frozen in place. I turned my body slowly, the panic I felt before just disappeared."Caroline!" The

We didn't speak for the rest of the trip. Alex only spoke occasionally when he picked up the phone that entered his cell phone, after which he fell silent again. When we arrived, Alex didn't take me to Mum Dad's house or to his apartment, He took me to the big house where the pack meeting used to be.Alex parked Jake's jeep and got out and opened the car door for me, still not looking at me at all. A few people gathered in front of the big house, Mum, Dad, Jake, Annelise, Regan, Jenna, Dane and a few other people. Someone half ran up to us ... Evelyn Lance.I thought she would approach Alex, jealousy made my steps slow down, letting Alex walk a little ahead of me, But I was wrong, Evelyn didn't come to him, She ran past me and Alex headed towards Jake's car. This time my steps really stopped. I turned my body when she stopped in front of the jeep, her face looked panicked as hestared at the empty jeep.Then she came running back to me, "Where is He?" her voice sounded so frantic that i

With a bit of frustration I grabbed Alex's BMW car keys and ran to the parking lot. Even though the pack house is usually visited by many werewolves, but this afternoon it felt very quiet. Worry made me hasten my steps."Luna!" Charmaine tried to follow me but she seemed to know that keeping me from going would be pointless.We got in Alex's car and started driving. I'm thankful his car has a GPS system because I don't know the quickest way to the Ripper forest. Hell, if only I could turn into a werewolf then I could get there faster than using a car.It took 20 minutes to reach the Ripper forest, when normally it takes 1.5 hours. We cut our way through Mr. Abernathy and exit directly at the fork into the Ripper forest. The sky outside was getting dark with the overcast weather, as if today's weather was trying to match my mood.Charmaine gripped her seat belt tightly, panic on her face again when we arrived. I looked at him with some sympathy."You can stay in the car, Charmaine." I

(Back to Caroline's POV)Alex and I became more strained after that night.Alex slept in his study, while I locked myself in our room all day. Mum visited me and brought some food but I pretended to be asleep when she came into the room. Jake is my only source of information at thebmoment this afternoon he visited to accompany me in between his busy schedule. But what we talked about was mostly about the progress of the war between our pack and the Silver Moon pack."I know it's a little late," I said as I pulled open my bedroom curtains letting the late afternoon sun flood the room, "But what's the name of your pack?"Jake, who had been busy munching on a cheeseburger, glared then coughed several times because he was choking. "Are you kidding me? You didn't know this whole time?!"I shrugged my shoulders and handed him a glass of soda. "You guys never mentioned it."Jake shook his head as he drank his soda from the straw, "You really are ... " He crumpled the cheeseburger wrapping pa

"Cara... returning home will only harm Mum and Dad." replied Alex more carefully. "Okay." I muttered finally "If you can find Evelyn Lance in 3 days, I will stay.""I can't repeal the sentence." His face stiffened again when he heard my request.My anger reappeared again, "Then I will leave.""Did he threaten you?" asked Alex in a low voice. "And you think I'll just let you go?""Then you're going to lock me up?!” I shouted angrily. “Why don't you kill me as well? Isn't that all the problems will be solved? Your grandfather must be feeling very proud from hell!”"What is it?" asked Jake breathlessly while Alex was still frozen in place with a hurt expression."We have to find Evelyn lance quickly." I said to both of them. "She's pregnant with Vincent's child.That means Evelyn is carrying my nephew." I added angrily. Jake who didn't know my realrelationship with Vincent opened his mouth very wide in surprise."If in 3 days we haven't found her, I will tell Vincent the truth." I said
