ADRIANAI managed to convince mum to not move the whole pack. We won’t let Xander win this. And while I was scared I was dragging innocent people into this war with us. I knew they didn’t want to leave their homes. I’ll do everything to make sure the events of last week never repeat itself.We’ve all been working hard trying to rebuild and put everything back together. I have drowned myself in so much work that when I manage to lay my head down on my pillow, I’ll be out in seconds. How exhausted I was ensured I didn’t have any dreams, if I had them, I couldn’t remember.Of course, I took that as a win and kept doing the heavy labor. Many people have tried to get me to stop, saying we already have enough hands. They didn’t know why I was doing this, and I couldn’t explain.Whenever they send me away from the construction, I go to help with the kids. I make sure to keep myself busy more than eighty percent of the time.I was trying to put a four month old to sleep when I felt a hand on

ADRIANAWith Kian’s support, I managed to get back into training.We’ve decided to forget about The Incident. Well, I already programmed my mind to forget about it. I was glad he never tried to bring it up again.I train every day now. And though we didn’t talk about whatever mental strain Xander was putting on me by just surviving. Mum thought it would be good to add mediation and other exercises for me.A month after his stupid, heartless attack. I was ready to get back on the field with him. This time, I’ll make him regret everything he has done. And I’m not going to back down without getting what I want.“Are you sure you’re ready?” Kian asks.He helps me train in the evenings. While I go with Henry in the morning. In the afternoon though, I rest and spend my time doing other things around the pack.I feel better, both mentally and physically. And without the kind of strain I put on myself during that fire hassle. I’m able to sleep peacefully without any worries. I’m ready for thi

ADRIANAI’m walking in a dimly lit hall.I looked around the place, starting from my right to my left then straight ahead. I even turned around to look at my back.One thing stands out, I can’t see beyond the perimeter I’m standing. Of course, that makes the arms bells in my head ring. And my senses are on high drive. The voice in my head is telling me to get the hell out. And yes, I agree with her, except, I can’t bring myself to move.I’m moving, I’m walking ahead. But I want to run, and preferably in the opposite direction. My body doesn’t heed to that command. I could almost hear it telling me I can’t tell it what to do. It has a mind of its own now.With no progress on stopping myself from going to wherever my body is leading. I decided to look at the place some more, hoping to find a clue what the place is.How did I even get there? There is no one to answer my question.I looked up and noticed a single bulb on the high ceiling dangling. The light is so dim that it doesn’t brigh

ADRIANAI woke up in my bed the next day and everything was intact. It almost seemed like nothing happened. The more I spoke about it, the more it seemed like it was just really a dream and nothing more.But it felt real. It felt very real that I could recall the fear I felt very well. Like I could reach out and touch it. How nervous and scared I was when those people came to pass by me.I wish I’d turned to see the person’s face. Maybe it would have made more sense.Mum was glad when I woke up. The relief was very obvious in her face. And she kept checking up on me after every five minutes. She would just pop in my room. Look at me and check over my body, then she’ll go back out only to come back a few minutes later.Kian too stayed there. He’d told me how scared he was when I refused to wake up no matter what mum did. If not for the fact that my heart was beating and I was still breathing, they would have thought I was dead.That only worried me more, seeing how I wasn’t normally a

XANDERDonovan suggested I start preparing for war. I asked why he said that, and in true Donovan fashion, he shrugged and said better to be safe than sorry.I wanted to know exactly what that meant. Knowing the asshole he wouldn’t say anything like that just for the sake of it. And it should do me good to recall he has a lot of friends. Witches especially.He always said, if you wanted to be at the top, you had to be neutral and let everyone think you’re their friend. Even though they aren’t yours.He is manipulative. So of course, he would think to make friendship one sided and only so it benefits him.I’ve been on the hunt for him. Since he chooses this time, after giving me a damn cryptic message, to disappear.Daciana swears she doesn’t know where he went because he didn’t tell her. I hated that I didn’t believe her.I always, always, trusted her word. I think I have become paranoid and even less trusting. Because, I used to doubt everyone before. But Daciana, I have never doubte
