Lola stood up from the floor. Melissa did a double take, reluctantly tearing her eyes from Ash, and following Lola up on her feet.“Something just happened didn't it?” Melissa said when she felt the air shifting around them.“No nothing happened. I don't know how your sister survived.” She said and looked at Ash. He rose and strode over the floor whilst Lola took a step back to keep the distance between them. He saw that she was wary of his closeness but Ash continued to walk until he had her pressed abasing the closet door. He stopped, reached out his hand, and grabbed the waistband of her robe, sliding it between his fingers. “Never in the history of our existence has a werewolf survived a bite from a vampire. Enter you.” Lola tried to see if he knew something, if Jax had told him but she wasn't sure.“Why don't you just appreciate the fact that your sister is alive and not question why or how? she’s alive, isn't that all that matters?” Melissa said, including herself in the convers

“Come on, join us. Can I make you a plate?” Ash waved his hand dismissively.“A glass of wine will be fine.” He said. Mr Clifton was pulling out a chair next to Melissa but Ash went around him.The chair next to Lola’s was pulled out and she gulped when she saw him sit down.Melissa looked over the table. She needed to see Lola’s face and make sure that she was alright. She also wanted to scream across the table and ask what the hell was going on but luckily she had some restraint.“Ash, how nice of you to join us. Who told you about the dinner?” Mrs. Blackwood asked. Ash thanked Mr. Clifton for the wine and swirled it in his glass.“Nobody told me about the dinner. Jax said that Lola was spending the night at Melissa&r

The school was different today. Everyone walked with a somber expression through the halls and they all stopped by a locker on their way to class. Lola and Melissa stood in the hallway and watched as the students put flowers, paintings, bears, and pictures by the locker. Her locker was covered in pictures of friends and her father, and signs that said ’rest in peace’ and ’never forgotten’ were taped on the metal. Flowers in her favorite shades, pink and purple, stood in vases on the floor. Clarissa had grown up with a lot of these people, when you live in a small town like Wild Cliff you’re pretty much stuck with the people born in your age group. All the way from kindergarten if not longer. A lot of the parents had helped Professor Adams when Clarissa was a baby, those who had kids her age would have them play together from birth and that kind of love creates unusually strong bonds.The sniffles were heard all throughout the school and many stopped and stayed by the locker as they cr

“Get out of my way.” Lola seethed and slammed her shoulder into Jax’s as she passed him. The door was slammed shut in front of her face and Jax stood leaning against it.“Lola, listen to me.” He said calmly.The chill grabbed her ankles and moved up her legs.“I’m not interested in anything you have to say.” She said.She scanned his face and not a single muscle was moving. It didn't feel like it was Jax’s eyes that she was looking into.He nodded and moved slowly over the carpet to his desk. His fingers tapped against the table, he flicked his tongue and grabbed a piece of paper. Lola’s stared at the white sheet folded over.It was the note that Ash had taken from her.

Lola cleared her throat, and Melissa waited eagerly to hear the story that, in some way, connected to her best friend.“Once upon a time, in a village covered in ash, a woman stepped out of her house. She looked in despair at what the fire had caused and then looked further at the backs of the disappearing guards. They rode on their horses back to their king, who wallowed in sorrow over the loss of his son. The guards told their king of yet another village they had plundered. They had burnt their homes in front of the villagers’ eyes.‘We told them, my King, how to make it stop, but none stepped forward ready to pay the price.’The king had sent guards to plunder village after village and bring back his heir.The king rose from his throne and lifted his sword in the air.‘I will go to the village and talk to the people, with the promise of gold and new homes.’‘My King, if they resist, what then?’‘If they resist, I give the kingdom my word that I will burn their starving bones.’The
