"Healing the Damage"
Tatum's POV:
I pull into my garage and I try to lay my wandering mind to rest. I swiftly carry Luna inside and place her in my bed. I search my room for something she can wear and run across one of my old tee shirts that is now too small for me. I lift her slightly and unzip her dress pulling it off carefully. I'm just about to put my tee shirt on her when I see several scars and almost healed bruises across her chest, abdomen, and upper thighs. I inhale sharply and stumble backwards at the realization of what her words actually meant.
I approach the bed again and gently touch a scar and watch it disappear under my fingers as a dull pain radiates through the tips of my fingers. He has beaten her and from the looks and feel of it he had been doing it for a while. I begin to touch every wound and scar I can see, vanishing them in the blink of an eye. Occasionall

The Hybrid "Afraid to Talk"
Tatum's POV:I had awoken at the first light of dawn as the soft light flickers through the brown and beige curtains hanging over the glass double doors in my room. Luna was still sleeping and seemed more at ease now and her back was facing me. I gently remove my arm out from under her and get out of bed. I move quietly around the room grabbing a pair of jeans and a black tee shirt before getting dressed and heading into the living room. I sit down on the couch and start scrolling through my phone and begin reading a few messages that have come through when I hear the sudden downpour of rain hitting the tin roof and a faint vibrating. I look towards the sound and see Luna's phone where I laid it last night on the brown end table next to me. I grab it and glance at the screen. I see several missed calls and messages from Samael and a few other numbers listed as Seth and Paul. I click the home button
The Hybrid "Even Demons Have Demons"
Tatum's POV:I'm lying on the bed listening to the sound of the shower as the smell of my shampoo mixed with Luna’s scent begins filling up the room. Feeling myself slowly begin to lose control I get up and go into the living room to wait for her. I'm sitting on the couch reading the local paper when Luna emerges from the bedroom. She's dressed in a pair of dark denim skinny jeans and a dark brown off the shoulder sweater. Her black hair was straight and hung loosely over her fair shoulders."That's a neat trick." I say as I close my paper laying it to the side."I could say the same thing to you." Luna replies as she looks down at the floor."Well I guess we need to get this day started." I say as I stand
The Hybrid "Explaining the Reasons"
Tatum's POV:I feel her body tense then relax and lean into me and my wolf growls in satisfaction. I open the passenger door and hold her hand as she gets in. I go to the driver's side of the car and take one last look out at the water before getting in. It's late afternoon and the already grey sky is getting dark."So out of curiosity where did you get this car? Is it something you just snapped your fingers and made appear?" I ask Luna as I steal a glance at her."No!"She says with a laugh."It was my dad's. When I came back I found some keys in his old office and when I went to the garage it was just sitting there. My father loved sports cars. He was always tinkering with something and on the weekends we'd go to the races."She replies with a distant smile.
The Hybrid "Stop the Haunting"
Luna's POV:Tatum had already driven away by the time I started to get back into my car. Oh I need Jack's number! I suddenly remembered. I quickly turned off my car and ran inside the bar. Jack was surprised but happy to see me. Apparently Tatum had told him I wasn't feeling well. I told him my old phone had fallen in the street the night before shattering the screen and they were unable to save it or my number. We exchanged numbers again and I walked outside. As soon as I walked out the door I spotted Tatum down the street several yards away. His back is to me but there is no mistaking him. There was a young brunette clinging to his arm as they walked away. I felt a pain in my chest as my wolf whined pitifully and it began to feel like my heart was being ripped from my chest. I ran to my car as fast as I could, not wanting to be seen and hurried b
The Hybrid "Old Friend"
Luna's POV:I'm standing next to Tatum's bed looking at the shirt he's laid out for me. It's a soft grey color and thicker than the last one. I pick the shirt up and bury my face in it inhaling the masculine scent that lies within it. I hurry and dry myself off snapping my fingers to make a pair of underwear appear before slipping the soft cotton shirt over my body. I snap my fingers again and my wet hair is instantly groomed and dried in its natural wavy style. I placed the towel in the same hamper I put everything into last time then walked over to the double glass doors. The curtains were wide open and I looked out at the rain soaked world then I slowly looked up at the sky. The large pale moon was full and darted in and out of the clouds as it drew me in. I feel as if I'm in a trance when the sound of Tatum's voice snaps me back.

I say quietly."It's fine. You two can go tomorrow and get what you need for the Christmas party." Tatum replies as he looks over to me.I look back at the bedroom door and lower my head. Thoughts of earlier start to race through my mind and I feel Tatum's warm hand gently stroke my back."We need to get some rest. We will both have a busy day tomo

We were browsing in the third store when Kali walked up to me with an arm full of dresses."Ok I found a few that I think might look good on you!"Kali says as she pushes me to the dressing room.The first dress she gives me to try on is light blue and knee length.

Luna's POV:It was late afternoon by the time Kali and I were finished shopping and getting manicures and pedicures. Once finished we settle on a place to eat and go inside and sit down."Are you sure you have everything you need?"Kali asks."Yes!
