"Get up!" Mikki shouts throwing open door. I jump slightly but otherwise don't move-but that might have been because Ah's arm was pinning me down. I was surprised to find him still dead to the world- boy can he sleep. "Oh...... my bad," Mikki grins and closes the door slowly.Carefully I roll over til I could catch a glimpse of the alarm o'clock which informed me it was nearly 12. "Ugh, two more hours...." I mutter rolling back over til I was nestled into Ash chest again. He makes a sound between a grunt and a moan before rolling onto his side and slinging his arm across my body. I groan as Ash squeezes my waist tightly and a second later releases me enough so I could breathe. "That wasn't nice," I huff softly but rest my forehead against his chest anyway."Wasn't it?" he says pushing my head back so I could see his playful, lazy grin. "Then I better improve my game. Maybe starting with....this" he pushes his lips onto mine gently, seizing me senseless. He ki

I fade into the forest, welcoming the shadows as they consoled me. Scents washed over me, first the animals that were close, trees and dirt then something different. I pause where I stood, one paw raised as I smell the air."Shana!" The shout startles me into nearly dropping to the ground. Recognizing the voice I follow it, winding my way through the trees slowly, and my heart in my ears and my breathing uneven. "Shana! Came here, girl!" called another voice.I spot my dad as I creep between the bushes. His hands cupped his mouth as he shouted out the family dog's name. A few feet away was Max, his hand identical to my fathers as he shouted out Shana's name. My dad whistles loudly, causing my ears to flatten at the high frequency.I hear Shana before I saw her. Her paws made soft thuds over the ground and a second later she squeezed out from a bush and greeted my dad by barrelling him over, her yaps of a greeting making him laugh. They feel into the sn

I was still in Ash's room when I woke up, he was still beside me breathing softly as he slept. The room was dark and my cheeks were sticky from tears but I pulled myself of Ash carefully and padded over to the door. I glance back to make sure he was still sleeping before heading down stairs. It was just past midnight but that didn't stop me from wondering into the kitchen.The table was empty from all the plates which had disappeared-most likely to the dishwasher- and the chairs were all tucked under the table. There was no evidence from my outburst.I change my mind of the evidence thing when I walk over to the table. In the edge of the table was a pair of scratches from my claws. I run my finger over the grooves and look around for the shattered plate but don't find one.The chair creeks slightly as I sit down heavily. I was surprised to find everything clean and neat. I thought everyone would have left everything out for Carson to clean up in the mo

I pad in, looking at the snow which had come into the house from the wolves' paws. I look up startled as Ember starts shouting, back in her human form, naked on the ground as the wolves shift around her. Somehow it reminded me of when I was attacked, powerless against the wolves with blood on their muzzles.But the wolves weren't going to attack her. They shifted back, fur melting away to reveal skin and flesh. Within seconds bloody, naked bodies were moving towards the stairs silently."What the hell was that Bray! You didn't need to barge in!" Ember screams. She pushed off the floor, immune to her nakedness as she marched over to Bray with fire in her eyes."You're in my pack Ember! You'd do well to remember that" Bray snarls in her face, his face filled with hatred."So?! I'm not a kid! I can do what I like!"I startle as a hand rests on the small of my back, gently guiding me towards the stairs. I look back at Ash but he was too b

Suddenly the door swings open and light floods over us, exposing us to its harsh glare. We look up startled, Ash growling slightly at the person, still pinning me to the bed with a hand on my stomach. "I'm stealing your girl for 10 minutes, Ash. Irana, I need you" Ember says unfazed despite what was obviously about to happen. I wanted to tell her to go away -using less kind words though. Instead I remove Ash's hand (which he doesn't reject to ....much....) and slide off the bed. I swipe one of Ash's shirts from the floor, ignoring Ash dejected growls. In the hallway I pull the shirt over my head, hoping the shirt wasn't dirty. "Yeah?" I mutter, still irritated that we'd been distracted. "I don't know what I should do" she whispers, making her way to her bedroom. Once inside she looks at me, something haunting her expression. "I want to stay but....You don't know what happened to my sister, do you?" I shake my head, not wanting to talk in case I started yelling at her for annoying me
