I headed toward the cobblestone path. My feet were forwarding against my will. Darkice did not return to the class, not even his alphas-friends. I had no place to go for now. After gathering some of my belongings, I would call Aidan. Fingers crossed, he would help me. I paced in the house. The door was already opened. My mother got on her feet at my sight. Jasper was leaning against the chair of the dining table and his arms were crossed on his chest. Drake looked up at me from the book lying on his lap. "Sit with me, pumpkin." He patted the seat next to him. My mother smiled at me nervously. Did they argue before my arrival here? After a pause, I walked over to the couch and sat next to him. "Um, are you sending me home?" I asked him. "Yes, if you don't wanna stay here with me and Jasper. You can stay with Mother." Drake smiled at me. Jasper pushed him forward and strode ahead to take the seat next to me. "Only if you want. And

I almost jumped out of my skin when I felt arms around me. My eyes searched my surroundings in the dark. I wasn't a wolf. I needed light. I pushed on his hard chest to get myself free from his stronghold. His arms kept me close to his warm and strong chest. I couldn't break the hold. I prolong my hand toward the switch. I kept my arm stretched out until I felt it and turned them on. My chin rose and my gaze locked with his amber gaze. He was looking at me with an expression on his face. "How dare you to be in my room. How dare you touch me!" I shouted in anger, tears pooled my eyes. The sight of him brought the pain back. His hold on me was firm. His scent worked on me. The pain, hurt vanished. The tears dried from my eyes. He withdrew his hand. "It's still night. Go to sleep." He ordered. It angered me more. "Get out of my room." "Not happening, mate. He looked out of the window and there was no light in the night. " Don't

I waddled over to the closet. There was no need to shower again but I wanted to. I wanted to smell good around him. I grabbed a full sleeve blue top with a round neckline and denim jeans. The practice would last longer. It could get dark too. I didn't want to catch a cold. I was still stuck in the moment when I heard that strange, loud buzz in my ears. It felt as if someone was around me creating it. I was not certain. What's happening to me? Is it related to the dead Emma? I mean I look like her. After dressing up, I climbed down the stairs. He was already waiting for me in the hall. "You don't need to do this. I got it yesterday that you don't want me." I stopped on the last step. "If you're doing this because your mother wants, please don't do this against your will." I cast my head down. Tears gathered in my eyes. It was hurting so much. My words could send him away, forever. Would I die without him? Or wandered around like a rogue? I don't know but

Fear crept into my bones. My eyes darted around but I wasn't particularly seeing things around me. I was stuck in the horrible image of my head. "Relax, relax. There's nothing." His strong arms were curled around me, my cheek was pressed tight to his chest. I inhaled his earthy scent. "Thank you for saving me. I thought you wouldn't look at me in the meeting hall. I was going to die there. I wasn't sleeping. I don't know how it happened." I sobbed against his chest. Horror was making my hands tremble. Worry entered his golden eyes. "You don't need to thank me. Now..." He drew his face close, his nose touched the tip of my nose. "Your fear is giving them strength. Are you getting me, Vida? " He asked. I nodded my head. It took me several minutes to push the fear away. But deep down I was frightened I would be trapped there again. "What's happening to me? I'm seeing things a human would never imagine. Is something wrong in my head?" I a

A hand touched my arm and I flinched away from him in shock and fear. My eyes met his fire-flashing eyes. His hand wrapped around my upper arm. He pulled me behind him. His arm was curling around me securely. "What are they?" The hair along the back of my neck stood to attention in the warning. "Fucking piece of shits don't die." I heard someone shouting in exasperation. "They taste like venom." Another shout filled the tense air. I heard loud shouts of fear, many comments over these things, and complaints that they weren't dying. I couldn't peel my eyes away from the black hole. Fear gripped my bones when I saw a shadow coming out of it. It terrified me more when my eyes lifted up at the sky. The sun was covered with the darkest clouds. Am I in my nightmare? After staring at it I realized they were shadows covering the whole sky. Fear raced through me. "Darkice, they're not clouds." I pointed my finger at the sky.
