ZACK

**PRESENT**

I reached the top floor and used my werewolf senses to sniff out which room she was in. I mentally prepared myself for whatever was on the other side. I wasn’t sure what I would do if she were up to no good. What more could I do?   

I took the one thing that made her evil, and yet I still feel it wasn’t enough. I took a deep breath and opened the door. The room was empty. I looked around for anything suspicious and only found a black box on the floor.   

Before I could inspect it, Alaia appeared from the bathroom. She stopped in her tracks and looked at me.  

"What do you want, brother?" she asked. A towel was in her hands, and I could faintly smell blood.
