I waited for half an hour before I realized that something was awfully wrong. Blake is very late, in fact, we would always argue about the fact that I was always the late one. He would always arrive a few minutes early for any event and I was seriously starting to worry.I called him with the house line and the first time it went to voicemail but the second time, he picked up on the forth ring.“Hey,” I said as soon as the call had connected, “I just wanted to make sure that everything was okay because you’re never late.”He muttered a small curse under his breath, “I’m sorry Amy; I won’t be able to pick you up today. Something really important came up at the last minute.”“I-,” I trailed off, “You could have called me Blake, I was waiting here for you.” “I’m really sorry Amy; I promise I will make it up to you.” There was a voice in the background that he paused to respond to, “Look, I have to go; I’ll see you when you get here.”“Okay, bye.” I had barely finished what I was

BLAKE’S P.O.VIntense pain and guilt filled me as I forced myself to leave that room. I had zero plans of leaving her unattended but I knew that the wisest decision was to give her space. She would fall asleep soon enough considering how drowsy and sleepy she looked while she was speaking to me.I waited the better part of seven minutes before I pulled the door open and sure enough, she had fallen asleep again.I slowly made my way over to her and stroked her cheek softly. I have never had the privilege of seeing Amelia sleep. She is always awake and always running around and doing something that she always looked so stressed but in her sleep, she looked like she was at peace.As I stroked her face, I couldn’t help but think about how we first met. She was grocery shopping and I was there with some friends of mine. We were being stupid and racing our grocery carts and I hit her with mine. Her bags tore and everything spilled and I will never forget the way she started apologizing to m

CALEB’S P.O.V When I woke up this morning, the last thing I expected to happen was to be ambushed by my sister. Clara has always been a little special, growing up she would speak to the animals and she claimed they would respond back. My father always thought she was crazy but we soon realized that she did have a gift. She was a seer and sometimes the birds would whisper things to her. Sometimes they were good things and sometimes they were warnings that something bad was about to happen. Regardless of whatever it was, we all learned to take Clara seriously. I knocked on Kaden’s door and I didn’t wait for him to respond before I entered because I knew he wouldn’t. I am the only person who willingly comes in here. Every other person is too scared or is dragged in here for punishment. The rumors about Kaden started a while ago and they have done nothing but spread. Before all that, Kaden was my friend and that is all I will see him as. I don’t know whether or not he actually killed h

AMELIA’S P.O.VAs I drove, all I could think about or even feel was the pain from the betrayal my family had just dealt to me. I tried to push the thoughts out of my head but it swarmed my every thought and pore. It still felt unbelievable to think that Brittany and Blake could have done that to me.I knew leaving the pack was a hasty decision and I should have thought about it more but in that moment when father offered it to me; I just wanted to get away from them and everything that had happened. A new pack seemed like the perfect break and exactly what I needed. It would give me enough time to heal from the betrayal before going back home.As I thought about my family, I couldn’t help but think about the warning that Blake had given me. I still don’t know why he warned me or what he was trying to warn me about. He just said I wasn’t safe and I wonder what he meant by that. Was that his own way of saying that he still cared about me? Or was that his own twisted way of looking after

KADEN’S P.O.VIt took almost half an hour for my wolf and I to agree on where we wanted to go. He wanted to hunt and I knew that mother would guess that in an instant. I have always hunted when I am frustrated and she knows that. I wanted to go home but I knew that she would probably be waiting for me there so it was out of the options.After a while, my wolf reminded me of a certain lake with a waterfall in the woods and I realized that it was a great idea. I’m surprised that more people don’t know about it but then again, it is too hidden for most people to find. I found it when I was a child and it was my solace for years, I haven’t shared this spot with anyone yet so mother would never think to find me there.I put my phone on silent and left it in my office so I wouldn’t be tempted to pick up her calls. If anything important comes up and people cannot find me, they will relay everything to Caleb who will mind link me if he thinks it is very important.Without informing anyone, I
