Azalea I smiled, watching a much smaller set of twins and a little girl who I assumed was their sisiter try and re create what Jason, Markus and Cassie had been doing earlier when they were swinging Cassie around on the ice. They were moving closer to the barrier and I was starting to get worried when all of a sudden the boys let go and the little girl went flying through the barrier. "Oh no," I said, running over and slowly getting on the ice. The little girl was crying, having landed hard on her arm and side and the little boys were running toward her. A warrior yelled out for them to stop and they froze in place, tears sliding down their cheeks. He went rushing over as I slowly skated in that direction. Cassie and the twins had gathered the other children and were ushering them off the ice. I didn't recognize the warrior, but he was a big guy and once he had gotten a few feet over the barrier I could hear the ice begin to crack. "Stop! You're too heavy," I told him right a

CassieThe next morning we were awoken by the doctor, who had come in to check on Azalea and Hortencia. it was rare that she came to the house but I was glad to see her. Since I figured they would be a while I ran to my room and grabbed a quick shower and brushed my teeth before throwing on some sweats and heading back to Azalea's room. The twins appeared not long after, looking fresh and clean. This time Dad came out of the room with the doctor and Hortencia, smiling when he saw us standing there waiting."She's doing better and her breathing is improving as well. The doctor said he may even be able to take her off the monitor and the IV tonight if she keeps improving. Hortencia has given her some other things that should speed up her healing as well," my dad said with a small smile. He looked tired but hopeful. "Go on in. Your mom is getting breakfast brought up for you guys."What ever she had given her appeared to be working already as her color had greatly improved sinc

Azalea Rich came and got us for dinner and this time I begged for them to let me walk. The dinning room wasn't far and my body was getting really stiff from lack of movement. They agreed but walked along side me like I was a baby. Dinner was it's usual affair and for that I was greatful. I loved listening to the stories of all the things going on around town and in the other communities that were part of the pack. Kate even let me hold little Ethan again for a bit and I smiled. He was such a good baby. Cassie let me know that Ashley would be by tomorrow with some ideas for me to look over. After dinner I was finally truly exhausted and begged off watching the other Blade movies. I did accept a piggie back ride up the stairs and to my room but promptly shooed everyone out. "I promise I am much better and you guys deserve to enjoy your own beds tonight. To get some sleep without watching over me. I'm good I swear. I just need some sleep," I said smiling softly. Cassie

Azalea It was breakfast time and I was starving so I quickly changed into the clothes I had laid out. I was almost reluctant to take off his shirt as it really did smell great. I held it up to my nose and took a deep breath before leaving it on my bed and heading down to eat. I felt a lot better after the bath and my body was definately less sore. Cassie was just sitting down to eat when I walked in. I loaded up a plate and we made small talk over breakfast. Meli came in and ate with us briefly before being called away to handle something for the pack. As we finished Alex came in and let us know that the children would be stopping by before lunch to see me. Cassie and I decided we would play video games while we waited so we went to the living room. After a few hours Alex led the children and their mother Amanda into the living room. Sara rushed over to me right away and gave me a picture she drew before hugging me and asking if I was okay. I told her I was good and I was

Azalea An SUV was already there waiting for us and as they loaded up our bags we all said goodbye to Rich. I handed him the wrapped wallet and asked with a blush, "Could you give this to Logan when you see him?" Rich narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled. :Of course I can." I climbed in to the SUV first, allowing them some time alone to say goodbye to their father. Soon enough we were off. Logan I was already waiting at the airport for my father to land. I was anxious to get home. Seeing her again this morning was not a good thing. I had tried to keep my mind off of her, but it wasn't working. My father had already dropped of my siblings and Azalea. We would be swapping essentially - he was traveling to the enforcers headquarters from here and I was headed home. my mother would join him next week. I was mentally exhausted and ready to get home. As soon as the door opened I was up the stairs and in the plane quick. A tantalizing smell lingered in the air and I breath
