We left the hospital together, but I knew I wasn't ready to go back to my dorm. I wasn't sure how I was going to be sleeping there tonight. Memories from yesterday began flooding my brain and I tried to quickly forget them. Nate did his best to distract me and he was successful for the most part. We hung around the commons at first until people started coming up to me asking questions. It seemed yesterday's events were the talk of the campus. Comments ranged from sympathy to slurs. Nate chased off anyone that was rude by huffing and puffing smoke at them. "Let's go somewhere less populated" Nate offered and I agreed. He took us to a fairy trail. It was quiet, peaceful and beautiful here. We watched the fairies in the trees for a while. I made sure to send my timely texts to Charles. He didn't respond once but I sent them just in case anyway. I didn't want him to worry or race out of class thinking I was in danger. An hour had passed and Charles finally responded. 'I liked the time

Charles opened the door all the way and I was right. The beautiful elf entered his house as if she'd been here many times. She shot me a curious side glance. I could tell she was checking me out. Probably wondering what Charles saw in me. "Wait here" Charles told her as he disappeared into his room. I could hear him shuffling through things. I wasn't sure what he was looking for. "Hello" she finally spoke to me. She smiled at me, only increasing her beauty. Freaking elves, I swear, it's not fair. "Hi" I responded shyly. I couldn't meet her eyes. "I'm Star. Star Sweetflower." She introduced herself with a gentle smile. She extended her slender hand out for me to shake. I shyly took it. "Rain Lancaster" I told her. "My family knows a Lancaster. A strong alpha, his name is Evandrus," she nodded her head with affirmation "we called him Evan." She was cute as she thought. Her finger patted her chin as she thought back. As if the gesture helped her to recall. "Any relation?" "Not tha

I decided to take Charles' offer up and started the bath. I filled it with nice hot water and turned the jets on. Kaitlyn had packed my toiletries with my things so I thankfully didn't have to worry about that. Although it would have been nice to use Charles' things and smell like him. I sat in the tub a while just thinking and reflecting. I finally got out when my fingers were pruney and the water started to get cold.I stared at myself in the mirror for a while barely recognizing myself. I grabbed my laptop and sat on the couch, ready to work.I checked my emails then and began working on my own classes. The professors had sent me weeks worth of class assignments and lectures. I got through today's classes and started on tomorrow's before Charles returned. As he entered the house my stomach growled. He let out a loud la

I shot awake, almost headbudding Charles as I sat up quickly. I was breathing fast, still feeling the remnants of my panic attack. I thought of Heli, and I could still feel her touch on my chest. My heart felt warm, and filled with love. Heli had healed me in a way. "Breath" Charles looked so concerned. "You fainted for a few minutes. I called a couple people. They'll be here soon to check you out. Nate is on his way too. I need you to breathe. Focus on breathing in and out. That's the only thing you need to think about right now." His voice was soothing. I did as he said. Although Heli had already helped me calm down. I am not sure what that was earlier. I was grateful for whatever it was though. Heli made me feel whole again. She had eased my fear and my stress. Fear was no longer my more prominent feeling. I was an

Rays of sun peaked in through the shades waking me up early. It was about 6 o’clock in the morning, which felt too early to be awake after last night. I tried to fall back asleep, but it was pointless. Heli was restless, I hadn’t let her out since our first night on campus and with everything going on she could really use a run. I snuck out not wanting to wake Charles up. I left a little note, telling him I would be running through the fairy trail for about an hour. I told him not to worry, fully knowing that he will worry anyway. I was sure I’d get an earful from him when I returned. I won’t mind it though, in fact I kind of like it when Charles scolds me. I smiled thinking about it.I quietly ran toward the fairy trail. The sun was still rising but it was mostly bright outside. The animals in the woods were starting to wake, as the chirping of birds filled the air. It felt nice to be outside without many people. I went deep into the woods and let Heli out the moment I could. She bar

I decided not to stay locked away in the apartment anymore. Since Luke was going to be running free, so will I. I told Charles I would be going back to classes and he lost it on me again. Telling me it was a bad idea. “I can’t just never go to classes again. We are majoring in the same thing. We will probably have classes together for the next few years. I don’t like it either but I refuse to stay locked away. He doesn’t scare me anymore, but I’ll stay away. I have sent emails to my professors about the situation and they assure me that they will keep us separated.” I defended myself. “I still don’t like it.” He muttered, but ultimately caved in, realizing I was right. “I’ll make sure to be in the building in case anything happens.” He assured me. “I need more lab time anyway.” With that I headed to my class. I grabbed my things and Charles walked me to my class. I entered the room cautiously, thankfully it seemed Luke wasn’t here. Everyone’s eyes were still on me though, as I am su

I was excited to see what Star had found. My father never did tell me much about his family. I would ask questions but he would avoid them or change the topic completely. My mother would always just tell me it was complicated. I had always been curious about the Lancaster name. Star arrived about an hour after we got home. I was dying waiting for her to get here. My excitement and anticipation we're eating away at me. Charles was starting to get annoyed at my pacing. "Sorry to keep you waiting. I had to dig up some pretty old books" Star came in plopping down 3 large books and a couple of scrolls. "I figured I would need to show you because if I just told you, well, you'd never believe me." Her words only filled me with more wonder. I stared at her impatiently waiting. She opened the darker scroll. "This scroll is the lineage of the first ever werewolf Luscious. Luscious had three children, he gave each one a different surname so that he could see which of his children would prosper

The first thing I did when I awoke was check my email. Charles was right and classes had been canceled for today as well. I was curious and excited to see what all Charles and I could get up to when we had a whole day to ourselves. Charles had made us breakfast and we sat around talking about my crazy lineage. "I wonder if I can do magic?" "Probably, it's somewhere in you. Maybe you should take a witch class?" Charles suggested and I nodded my head in agreement. I thought that was a pretty good idea. I figure Star could probably teach me elf stuff and magic. Whenever she had free time again. I looked at Charles who was watching me carefully with intense eyes. My cheeks flushed under his gaze. I wondered what he was thinking. "What's on the agenda today?" I asked, curious if he had any plans. "I need to use this time to get caught back up on my lab study. They are letting us use the lab in the chemistry wing on campus for now." My heart sank as the idea of a day together vanished.
