They'll be 3 more chapters tomorrow guys. Things are starting to get a bit scary.
SARAH "No!" He glares at me and turns into the common room heading for the dining hall. "Jayson, I can fight!" I follow him. I showed up at the pack house the next day, after the devastating news that a bunch of murderous rogues are coming to hunt us down. Our little town can't take it and I won't let them win. I was looking for the training sheet to sign up. "Forget it, Sarah! When this shit goes down, you're on the bus with the rest of them. That's final!" He yells with his back turned. He waits at the counter for food. Steaming at the fact that I'm fighting him on this. "I told you I was by your side and I'll be damned if you're going to stop me!" I point my finger at him. "I'm not running, Jayson!" He grabs his plate and leans in to my face. "Over my dead body. You join this fight; I'll kill you myself." He goes to the table and sits down. "Why? Why don't you want me to fight? You know I can. Hell, I can kick your ass." I slam myself in the seat across from him. He swallo
JAYSONAs much as I agree we need the help to win this battle, I can't help but feel like a dick asking these kids to fight for me.I called everyone into Black Lake. Away from the prying eyes of the unit.We met at the training center we set up for our own training.Almost all the kids came. About seventy.All the Alphas came as well. I lean to Dea. "Is this everyone?"He nods. "All that we could get a hold of. Wren's still trying."Kale stood beside me. "They'll all fight. Just need to tell them when."I swallow. "Ok."I look out at the innocent faces. I walk back and forth."I'm sorry I had to pull you all from your families. I'll keep this short then you can all return back to break."I walk studying the faces. "What I'm asking you is something I would never do unless I really needed your help. It's dangerous, but I trust your skills. I know your fighters. Damn good ones. I want you to know, that you are the best damn group of soldiers I've ever trained. I know I'm asking a lot. B
SARAHCan I start by saying.... Holy Hell!Like is this really happening?I'm not sure if what Jayson said to me in the barn was what he actually meant to say. It almost sounded like he was saying he was in love with me.I mean, I've thought about it. My crush turning into love is one of my biggest fantasies, but the reality is, for most girls, that doesn't happen. Especially, from the only guy you've ever slept with.I think he may have just been caught up in the moment. After the most mind blowing, hottest sex encounter ever, he probably didn't even know what he was saying.I meant it though. I know I've caught some major feelings for him. If things went south, I don't think I could even look at another guy the same way again.I'll keep it to myself though. If what Jayson said was some sort of slip up, I don't want to scare him off. I can wait for him to really feel something.Right now, we have bigger things to worry about. But it's nice to just live in bliss for a moment or two. J
JAYSON Sitting around this table is something I didn't think I'd actually enjoy. Living a life in the packhouse, we didn't have these close-knit dinners. They were always fancy, catered, spread out. Sitting in this intimate setting with Sarah's family, makes me realize that this is what we're fighting for. The love I feel from these people is worth me risking my own life over. "Mmph...this is so good, Marie." I say as I chew a mouthful of my third helping of her amazing roast. "You'll have to give the recipe to our kitchen. I don't think I can go long before I have this again." I swallow and cut another piece. "No way, Mister." Marie says. "It's a family secret. You want more, you knock on that door." I point my fork at her. "I'm going to hold you to that." Marie laughs as she drinks her wine. Shane swallows his mouthful. "So, when's the next weapons training. I never got to fire anything off the first time." My dad drops his fork. "Shane, must you talk about weapons at the di
SARAH Jayson's parents are wonderful. His brothers are nice once you get passed the flirting. Nate's my favorite. Maybe it's because we're closer in age. He treats me like a little sister and I love it. I always wanted a big brother. As it turns out, we're very similar people too. One thing we love is video games. Which is why Nate and me have been posted up in front of the 72-inch flat screen in the gaming room. On the floor, legs crossed like a couple of ten year olds. Kicking each other's asses in a marathon of games. Honestly, I haven't seen Jayson in hours. "Ugh....I'm going to kill you! That was my best weapon!" Nate grits, frantically pushing buttons. "Snooze you lose, buddy. It's what happens when you fight a champ." I giggle. Pushing my own buttons. He bites his lip. "Well, I'm playing hard ball, now. You're going down!" He pushes more buttons. "Big mistake!" I push a button and his character dies. "My inventory!" He yells. He whips his head to me. "One more!" "Sorry
JAYSON "You're late. Sit down." My dad barks as I enter his office. I grab a chair across from him and sink into it. "Sorry. I was just checking to make sure Sarah was still being taken care of." Derek, from beside me, snorts. "Yeah, I bet you were taking care of her." I whip my head around and shoot him glare. He chuckles. "Relax. God, you're so high strung. Think you'd be more relaxed with your new little doll to play with." I lean back. "Jealous?" I smirk. "Damn straight. Trust me, if you weren't your father's kid, I'd be snaking that hottie right out from underneath you." He laughs while crossing his legs. My eyes narrow and a growl comes deep in chest. My father shakes his head. "Can we focus please?" "Sorry." Derek says still with a shit eating grin on his face. "I've received some new information that will certainly help things. The Alpha." My dad pulls out a file. I sit up. "Who is it?" "Surprisingly, Desmond White." He opens it and tosses a photo of a dark tanned
SARAH"Come on, guys or you're taking the bus!" Jayson yells from his car parked on the road outside my house."Bye, mom. Bye, dad." I hug them quickly as Shane busts by me through the door."Shotgun!" He yells. Running and adjusting his duffle on his shoulder.Jayson puts his hand up. "No way. You get in the back." He flips the front seat forward."Dude. Don't you know the code? Bros before...." Shane stops in mid-sentence as Jayson glares at him, arms folded.Shane swallows. ".... uh...Girls.""Get in the back." Jayson grits. Pushing him into the car."I'm ready." I pant. Jayson takes my duffle."About time. Get in." I get in as Jayson drops our bags in the trunk.My dad walks up to the car. "You take good care of my kids.""I will. See you next break." Jayson climbs in, revs the engine and drives out, heading to the highway.With break over, the fun is over too. Now, we have to concentrate on training for the biggest battle of all our young lives. It's time to prove we aren't a bun
JAYSON "Alright! Eyes on me!" I boom. As I look down the long line of recruits. "Today, I show you just what controlling your shift looks like! One fluid motion! Being able to shift on the fly, allows you to manipulate the battle field. Allows you to redirect the fight to your favor! There are many instances you'll come up against where your human form will be better than your wolf! Now, I know some of you are still getting to know your wolves, so here's your chance to learn control! Take charge! You and your wolf will be one machine! Like this...." I set myself at the top of the line. I hook a hand to the back of my shirt and pull it off. Dropping my shorts and throwing them aside. I lower my head and concentrate. Telling my wolf what we're doing. I ball my fists flexing my chest. I raise my head and run fast. I jump and shift my silver paws hitting the ground. My wolf makes a few steps jumps and I shift to human form. Landing on my feet, still running. I jump and shift into my
