True to Liam's words I couldn't remember anyone who I could invite for the party. I raised my hands in surrender. "Go ahead Jules."She saluted, skipping out of our house in ecstasy while Liam and I watched. Then he gave a concerned stare. "I know I said it's up to you but will it be really okay to throw this party and make a public announcement?"I tilted my head to the side. He was acting so cool right now that I didn't know what to say to him. "Honey, you are really the best!" I gave him thumbs up, watching his Adam's apple bob up and down in excitement. "I am certain. You know it doesn't end well for us whenever we try to hide something. They will eventually find out. This party is not just for us, it is for you and I. We need to fully integrate ourselves to the ways of this town. We need to meet people too,"Liam had a contemplative look on his face as he considered my words. "But you know it will attract a lot of attention right?" He sighed, walking closer to me. "You know what?

"Daphne,"Liam whispered, and I almost jumped out of my skin. I think we both need to see the town's therapist.He placed his hands on my shoulders with worry etched on his face. "Are you okay?""I have told you to stop doing that!" I snapped. Why doesn't he ever listen? I don't think Liam is at fault here. I am just paranoid.He snatched his hands like he touched something hot.I sighed. "I am sorry."He patted my back in understanding. I just can't get over it. The feeling that someone is watching me... It was not a good feeling. "I understand why you are jumpy."I froze, and my neck sharply turned toward him. He does? "You do?"He gave a nod. "You are worried about your boss." Don't worry. Just take someone with you. Everything will be fine."He knows how much I hate staying home and doing nothing. I hid my trembling hands. How do I tell him that I just encountered a rogue wolf. Or am I just being paranoid for nothing?He quickly pulled me into a hug. One I was grateful for. "Rela

Daphne Jennings."Huh." Perez muttered. We have been staring at each other for the past three minutes now. He hasn't said anything about the news I just spilled. He should say something to stop me from remembering the witch's comment in his heart. For his personality, he would rather die than admit how soft he is."You've worked here for.. three months?" He brought out a document and read from it. I didn't know he kept such things about his employees. He must be more than I thought. I nodded affirmatively. "I am,"He closed the file with this, causing me to flinch. It was really unnecessary. "How many weeks have passed?"He was talking about my pregnancy. "A week." He gives me a stiff nod. "Then we still have some time until you get heavy. Once you feel uncomfortable. You can come and see me, and then we will discuss the maternity leave program."I blinked countless times. I am speechless. Why is he making it this simple? He is kind of complicating the whole thing. I don't know if

Daphne Jennings.It's been a week since Julian traveled. The party was in a week's time. She hasn't returned or called, but no one cared. They all assumed she went on a self-deserving break. I thought so until this morning, when Kellan ran into my apartment, saying he couldn't get a hold of Julian's phone. Whenever he dialed it, it either said it was unavailable or that the number could not be reached.Kellan nearly pulled his hair out of his skull in frustration. I gently slid the cup of hot cocoa over to his side of the table. It rained cats and dogs this morning, so it was the perfect beverage to calm his nerves down.I asked him to explain everything."I have a feeling that she has been abducted."I rolled my eyes. He was being dramatic. "Listen, Kellan. Just because you are cousins doesn't give you the right to feel that way."He pouted, folding his hands across his chest while the beverage remained untouched. "We are supernaturals; I can actually feel her... deep inside my bone

DAPHNE JENNINGS"Julian!" I stared wide eyed at Julian. She looked like she just came back from a vacation. I pulled her into a hug. "I have missed you! I am glad you decided to stop by." I looked around her. There wasn't any belonging she cared. She basically came empty handed. "You didn't get anything for me? Where did you travel to?"She only sighed. "Daphne. Let me into he house first."I facepalmed. "Come in. The party will start in a few hours time."She takes her seat while I went into the kitchen to offer her water. She seemed refreshed. It's been only a week yet it looked like she stayed there for months. Dressed in a navy blue shirt that covered her entire frame. She didn't even wear her usual jeans stained with paint. She seemed different from the woman I have come to know as my best friend. What changed during the week? The first thing I need to know is where she has been.She didn't appear like she would want me to know. But I know how to get information out of her. She c
