I had always thought about how unlucky I was when I'd been brought into this life. Such a lonely existence. My parents, my home. I never had much to look forward to and no reason to want to wake up each day and get on with my life. My home wasn't a home, it was just a building and I did not have a family. Yet now, the thought of leaving what little I had behind to live amongst strange people scared me. “I'm not going anywhere. You can't make me”“I'm sorry Eva, and it pains me to say this, but you don't have much of a say in this. The only thing I can do as your friend is prepare you for it. I can teach you what you need to know to become Luna–”“No” I said simply, cutting her off“I know everything seems to be happening so fast and it might be scary but I promise it's not all bad… with time you'll see. You have been chosen to lead one of the strongest packs and usher them into a new era”“I don't understand anything you're saying right now and I don't even want to understand. My ans

It had been confirmed, my stalker was a girl.What was her purpose? What did she have against me? And why hadn't she done anything? She was right in front of me, she practically had my life in her hands but she hadn't even said so much as a word.What if she didn't want me dead? Perhaps she was only trying to scare me for some reason. I got up and ran to the balcony, looking for any traces of the girl but she was nowhere to be found. I went back in and shut the door. I pulled the window blinds closed too before I went and sat on my bed.That door wouldn't stop her. She had proven that to me twice already. Was that her goal? To make me feel unsafe as she kept taunting me and stalking me?My mind flew back to the news of the missing boy. It dawned on me that I could've been in his position too if the girl had done anything to me. I imagined James waking up in the morning to find me missing.He would probably look for me all over the house. What would he do when he realised his fears h

Due to the commotion created by the return of the boy, James and I were able to slip by without anyone seeing us.James led me back to his car and drove away without saying a word. It wasn't till he'd put some distance between us and the station before the stopped the car.“I can't believe they found him so soon, and so easily. It all seems off to me”“I know what you mean” I agreed with James. “We still need to find out what happened to him. I know my dad will mention something about it soon. I'll let you know as soon as he does”I sighed. “Can you take me to the Lightwood's?”“You're not going home?”“Esme asked me to come over and I don't really want to stay alone right now. You understand right?”Strangely it felt like I was asking for James' permission, as though staying in the same place as Kieran would be a betrayal to him. I hated how complicated things had gotten between us after last night. “Yes, sure I'll take you there”“Thanks” The rest of the ride was silent as I kept

I found myself falling for him all over again. He looked so genuine…“Are you satisfied?” He said going back to his cold voice again. Of course he didn't mean it… he was just that good at catching me off guard. “Pass me your phone”“Why?”“So I can enter the location. I have his address, I just don't know how to get there”He gave me his phone and I returned it once I was done. We didn't say a word to each other till we reached the place. It was a small house in the middle of town. “So what's the plan? You just go in and talk to him?” I asked.I was met with no response. “I think you should let me do the talking”“I didn't bring you so you could keep talking. You brought me here, you've done enough. Just be quiet now”I didn't listen to him and I followed him out of the car. I raced to the door before him and knocked on it. His brows furrowed in annoyance and I smirked feeling satisfied. “So much for the wolf genes. You can't even keep up with a teenage girl” he rolled his eyes at

It was 7:16 am in the Lightwood mansion. Esme, Kieran and I were seated in the living room as I'd just woken them up with shocking news. It was still early when I'd told them, so Esme advised we all freshen up first before meeting in the living room to talk.“I can't believe he's dead…” It felt as though somehow I was still dreaming, and maybe soon I'd wake up from this nightmare. “Esme had a hand around and shoulder in an attempt to comfort me, but it wasn't working. In my mind, I kept replying the words over and over.Jayden is dead.“How do you know?” Esme asked meI sniffled, “James called me. Apparently, after we left, Jayden ran out of the house, and he didn't return last night. His father walked into his room very early this morning… and, he…” the words refused to come out.“It's okay…” Esme said gently “I need to know exactly what happened, pull yourself together” I turned to Kieran slowly and felt all my rage directed at him.“His father found him handing from the ceiling…
