Sam-Slowly sounds started coming back in the dark. Everything around me was so loud, an overwhelming hunger was eating at me. Opening my eyes I tried to look around the lights were far to bring so I closed them again. What was that smell? It smelled like a wet animal and metal.Everything started slowly coming back to me, the fight at Lily’s the battle in the forest, Caleb attacking me in the cave. I remembered that my leg was broken, slowly I tried my leg and expected to feel the normal flair of pain.It was then I realized I felt no pain at all, I tried to slowly focus on the sounds around me. I could hear the chatter of people around me but couldn’t focus on the words. Far in the distance, I could smell the familiar pine and vanilla smell I came to find a home in.Footsteps approached the side of my bed, where was I and why is it so loud in here? Caleb must be close because his smell was getting stronger. There was another smell I could smell; it was grotesque like a wet dog.“Sam
Caleb – I was so exhausted, Sam’s cold body curled up next to mine. I shifted my body with the last ounces of energy I had for her to get closer to me. I cringed when her cold skin rushed with mine, this was a new version of a girlfriend’s cold feet on your leg.“I’m okay.”I could hear her sobs coming out, I didn’t want her to feel this way. I knew that baby vamps could get out of control very easily and considering three days ago she didn’t even know about wolves or vampires she was taking the news very well.I did my best to wrap my arms around her to try to comfort her. Her body shivered with her sobs, I pulled her face up to look at me. I needed to see her blue eyes looking back at me. She refused at first but when she did, she had streams of tears smudging her face. With my thumb, I brushed her lips, oh how I loved those lips.“Can we lay somewhere more comfortable?” my voice was quiet and weak.“I’ll help you up.” She scrambled to her feet with lightning speed.I reached up to
Sam-Waking up I could hear Caleb’s heartbeat under my ear, his breath shallow. I took in my view, he had sheets covering his hips down but my imagination painted the rest of the picture not in front of my eyes.I slowly looked around it was light out now, fuck we were going to be late for work I tried to pry myself from his body but found an arm that pulled me back into him. I laid my head back on his chest.“I already excused us from work. I told them we were working on a case out of town.” His voice was gruff from sleep.“So, tell me more about what I am now.” I could not help my curiosity.“Wolves and vamps have been at war for ages so technically you’re my enemy.” A smile teased on his face.Running my hand over his chest I tried to figure out the question I wanted answers to. “So, wolves hate vamps? Is that why everyone was talking at the hospital?”He rolled to face me, his arm finding a home between my ribs and my hips. “People are concerned because I am the alpha of my pack a
Sam- I could barely move while I rolled myself out of bed. The gym kicked my ass yesterday and I can feel it today. I roll off the bed and walk to my mirror, standing in front of my full-body mirror, I could see the efforts I put in starting to pay off. My body appeared slimmer, and I was starting to curve in the right places while flattening out in the wrong ones. “Sam!” My roommate Lily called from the kitchen. I could smell bacon and eggs all the way in my room which meant she had a good night last night with her date. “Come and get it!” “I'm up, Weirdo!” I shouted back, slowly pulling on a tank top and some pajama bottoms, and then I made my way to the kitchen. Coming into the kitchen I noticed we weren't alone. Lilly had brought her date back home and he was something to look at. He stood about six feet tall and extremely bulky next to Lily’s petite body. Lily only stood five foot and six inches; a couple of inches shorter than me. Tying back my long black hair in a bun, I
Sam-Mr. Stranger took the seat at the front of the table. Running his hand through his hair, he spoke “everyone take a seat, I’d like to get started sometime before lunch.” He checked his watch and rolled his eyes. This guy is going to be really fun to deal with. Everyone started taking their seats and the meeting got underway.After an hour and a half, I started spacing out. I was more exhausted from the gym than I thought and before I knew it ‘BAM’ a hand hit the table next to my seat. I looked up and there was Mr. Stranger.“Can you refrain from daydreaming on my time Kerns?” His snarky tone was deep and shook something inside of me.I looked around to notice we were one of the few people left at the meeting and I started gathering my paperwork and putting it away.“My apologies,” I said as I stood. This stranger towered over me and was almost twice my size wide-wise. He was in my book a giant. “Don’t let it happen again.” He started walking away so I mumbled my grief under my b
Sam-What the hell?! There’s no way that the hot brother who was funny at the club was this egotistical prick standing before me! What in the actual hell is happening?“Sam?” his voice sounded just as surprised “can I ask what you’re doing here?” I was nothing less than pissed. Whom does he think he is asking me what I’m doing here?“Liam? Care to explain what is going on?” Caleb’s eyes shot from me to Liam and I could feel the anger in him building as well. “Chill bro, this is Lily’s roommate. Obviously, you two have met in more than just the club. Care to get Lily and me up to date on what else you have in common?” Liam and Lily passed a very confused look back and forth. I was the first to speak up. “This is the dick boss that I was talking to Lily about. You know the egotistical one.” I laid my hand out face up in Caleb’s direction to add some dramatics to the statement.Caleb crossed his arms over his chest and looked back at me. “dick boss huh?”“Yes, you’ve been acting lik
Caleb-When I had climbed into my truck, one of my pack warriors, Lucas called. His voice was muffled as my focus had been on my rearview mirror, watching Sam. I barely heard what Lucas was saying until after I drove away and was on the main road.“Wait, what did you say?” I asked Lucas once I could no longer see Sam from my rearview mirror.“I said the rogue has been spotted.” I could hear the fear in his voice. “He was seen by your firm sir.”“How long ago?” Internally I started to panic. My mind instantly went to Sam. The last I saw her she was getting into her car.“About ten minutes ago, Sir.” I could hear in Lucas’s voice that he was expecting me to know what to do in this situation. Thinking of Sam, I started to feel a little uneasy. I had to find Sam and make sure she was safe.I thought for a moment and then said to Lucas, “Have someone follow him. We can’t lose his trail; he has already slaughtered his previous pack and a fair share of humans.”“Yes, sir.” With that, the pho
Sam-Running up to Lily’s room I start pounding on the door. My lungs ache from running into the house so fast that I was now winded. I knock again, harder this time. I hear a deep yell come from the woods. I throw open the door and turn the light on.“What the hell Sam!” Lily grabs the blanket to cover her head.“Liam! Caleb… he followed it… it’s in the woods.” I barely was able to spit the sentence out, but it was enough for Liam to jump right out of bed and grab his clothes.“How many were there?!” Liam pauses getting dressed momentarily, as he tried to fish for more information from me. “How many Sam?! Focus!”I stammer racking my brain for the words. “One. I think there was only one?”Liam reaches for his phone. “Fuck! It’s the rogue again. Stay inside and do not call the police. I will be right back just stay here.” Lily pulls the blankets down and I could finally see the scared look on her face. “Babe where are you going?!” her words tugged at my heart. Where was he going?
