There was something terrifying about the way they looked. Their faces held no trace of kindness or humanity. They looked like predators that had finally cornered their prey, and I was that prey.

That same rainy night in late April, the whole town of Perkins was deathly silent, save for the overexcited crickets and frogs in the bushes, and perhaps one late night driver or two. The clouds parted to reveal a full moon high in the sky, hanging like a hunter's lantern over the house where Mike Sommers lived with his daughter Lauren. Twelve-year-old Lauren was in her room, reading a book in the warmth and comfort of her bedcovers.

This bond was meant to last a lifetime. But with every heartbeat and every rustle of the wind through the branches above, Winter intruded, her image forever woven into my very being. Eighteen, a gentle soul with wide greenish eyes that sparkled with unblemished innocence, she filled my thoughts like the first rays of sunlight peeking through the clouds after a storm. It was infuriating. I felt like a fool caught between two worlds—the warmth of a fire and the pull of an uncharted storm.

Summer’s scent hit me fast. Inside, the room was warm and slightly dark, the dim lights spilling a soft glow across her sheets. Summer was curled under her blanket, hair spilled everywhere like she’d been fighting something in her sleep.

The way he never tried to replace anything, never demanded space that wasn’t offered. The sun dipped lower, painting the sky in bruised purples and soft oranges, and by the time night settled in, a bonfire crackled near the edge of the beach. We sat around it, wrapped in blankets, the warmth fighting off the cold. Summer felt so good on vacation, even when it wasn’t really summer. Maybe it was the people. Maybe it was the absence of fear. Bibi had fallen asleep at some point, curled against Alan’s chest, her small fingers fisted in his sweater. He hadn’t moved for a long time, afraid to wake her.

Every summer, we would sell out the houses to vacationers. “Alpha!” I turned to look at Ricky, my Gamma, leaning out of the door. He was motioning to me, and I sighed.

She indeed revealed some of the powers she was blessed with, which, my reader, you will get to know and learn about as you read further. Late in the evening, as they were about to turn to their beds, a commotion rose from the outside.

August 15th (Saturday) Finn came by to visit James, Sunny, and, of course, sweet Mrs. Sweeney. James happened to have a bad summer cold. He kept coughing and sneezing as his mother looked at him and said, "Boy! That awful cold better be gone before the trip, and I sure hope I don’t catch it!
