Chapter 115
My phone was sitting on the coffee table and I was pacing behind the couch. Emmett said he was going to call on his new phone over twenty minutes ago. My nerves were on high alert as I looked at my phone every couple seconds, hoping I could manifest something that hadn’t happened in the last twenty minutes. Hell, I didn’t even know if he was able to get it. He could have been unable to get the phone today and all this pacing was just wearing our floorboards down.
‘Sky, you need to calm down.’ Raine had been trying to calm me down this entire time but the way her tail twitched told me she was worried as well.
‘I know. I know…I just…what if he got caught with it? What if something happened?’
Raine sighed. ‘If something really bad happened, then Carl would call us. Don’t worry so much. He’ll call us…’
She was interrupted by the ringtone of my phone. Ju

I sat outside of the pack territory in Thing. She was idling as I stared down the road. It was so weird thinking I was allowed to go on another pack’s territory. This was the first time I was driving myself and didn’t have an escort. I’d put the top up on Thing since it was getting chillier as we headed into the actual winter months. Taking a breath, I allowed Thing to roll over the territory line.Another packs territory felt weird. It was like a weight on my shoulders. Almost like the air was thicker, telling me that if I wanted to breathe better, breathe freely, I needed to get the hell out of here. I wondered if it would feel like that if I wasn’t a rogue but now I understood why rogues didn’t spend much time, if any, in packs even if they were welcome.My phone dinged and I glanced at the text message from Ethan.E: Welcome. Head on in, the guys know you are

“What do you think? I think we got it pretty straight.” “I mean, it’s about a straight as we could get it. He’s pretty dark to begin with but this particular color has some bleach in it to help lighten and get the color really to pop.” I nodded and rubbed under Niru’s chin. “You’re doing so good. Thank you. I’m sure Ethan is being obnoxious.” Niru purred and nuzzled into my hand more. Giving him a couple more scratches with my ungloved hand, I massaged the color to come to a point just behind his eyes. Sam was working on getting the tail since she was better at dyeing than I was. It was way harder with how fluffy his tail was. We had decided to do a bold blue line down his fur as apposed to getting five bottles and trying to dye all of him. I’m not sure if anyone would take an Alpha wolf seriously if they were entirely blue. Not that they would with a skunk strip of blue but Niru shot down the zebra and cheetah print ideas. My now shockingly purple hair was drying and Kevin had the

“Alright, Niru, stand still. We are going to hose you off now.”After our lunch, Kevin moved the platter to the table as Sam pulled out the hose from the side of the house. I grabbed the bottle of all-in-one shampoo and conditioner that apparently was Ethan’s go-to. Pulling off my shirt, Kevin squeaked and turned around. Laughing, I shook my head.“Kev, I have a sports bra on. I’m fine. Plus, I’m wearing boy shorts.”“What do you mean you’re wearing boy shorts…” He turned and pretty much turned back immediately.Laughing, I was mid-pulling off my pants. I wasn’t about to get my shirt or pants wet. Sam cackled as she turned on the water and adjusted the water spray. Kevin disappeared into the house and I continued to laugh.“It’s probably better that way. Ethan may just murder him.”I shrugged. “I mean, I’ve been…”Niru g

“That’s…not all…”I started to shake my head. “How? How is that not all?”“Justin attacked Emmett on his way out.”My world started to spin and I felt the safety of my space start to crumble away. “W-what? Is…is he okay…?”Another long silence from Carl made me want to throttle him. “He’s…alive.”“Alive? What do you mean alive? Emmett isn’t a fighter, Carl. He can’t take on Justin in a fight!”“I know, Kick-Butt. I know. Emmett is in the hospital. He was roughed up pretty bad. He regained consciousness a few hours after the attack.”I coughed out a sob and covered my mouth. “Is he…?”“He’s going to be okay. But it’s going to take some time to heal. I went to go see him myself. He’s beat up but still kicking. Don’t worry.

'Opening my eyes, I looked around me. I was in the forest back at Silver Mountain. I knew that at least. This was the northern forest though, the one right at the foot of the mountain. It was a few hours away from our main city. What was this moment?I knew this was a dream. I don’t know how but I did. Honestly, I’d been expecting to be pulled into a nightmare after everyone refused to allow me to drive home. The weight of being on the pack territory was too easy to guess that I would be plagued with memories.Suddenly, I heard howling in the distance and I started to run. I knew they were after me. I knew if they caught me, they would kill me. My little legs could only take me so far so fast. Hiding in the back of a truck, I’d managed to sneak out of the city and take it as far as I could go. This memory was from a long time ago and I could barely remember why I was out here alone. It was rare that I was without Emmett attached

Raine and I decided that a run was in order. After we got back from Ethan’s a few days ago, there was so much pent up stress and worry. My shoulders were so tight I felt like I was walking more like a robot than human. Nothing felt right. I worked out more. I worked on the cars that came into the shop. I practiced my drums. Nothing could ease the feeling.Running in our wolf form, we felt a little better. It was like letting the shadows go. We definitely needed practice running on all fours. There were more than a few times we took a jump a little too far or run a little too fast and couldn’t control ourselves. Working out the logistics of not being seen wasn’t hard since our hearing suddenly was enhanced. There was deer I could swear I heard chewing on grass a mile away.‘How about we head back to the pool?’ Raine offered and I let her take over.We had been swapping back and forth to get a feel for the new form. It also w

Today, Kevin decided to grace me with his presence. Apparently, Sam and Ethan had gotten in a heated argument and it made the pack house insufferable. Ethan couldn’t leave because he was dealing with issues in the new college town he was building on his territory. They had multiple inspectors and construction crews coming in and out. Building the entire city from scratch sounded intense. I couldn’t even imagine how much that cost.Still, Sam and him had gotten into it about something in the city. They now argued every time they were within eye-line of each other. Kevin escaped in his very modest Toyota Sequoia. The only thing that wasn’t modest was the color. It was in what was called a Supersonic Red and I didn’t think that large of a car needed to be supersonic. That was not the point, but far be it from me to point it out.Since there wasn’t anything planned to come in today in t

Raine was laughing at me. I was sitting up in bed looking at the clock as the seconds ticked by. It was dark and I was waiting for it to turn midnight. Not for me. It would be an hour difference.‘You know, he is going to be so mad.’I rolled my eyes. ‘It’s nowhere near as crazy as I usually do it! A phone call is the least I could do.’She wagged her tail. ‘Remember the year we poured a bucket of red Jello over him.’‘There was also the time that we managed to get him outside so he woke up by us throwing him in the river.’‘That year he was really mad. Caleb had to help with that one.’I smiled. Emmett and I had an unhinged way of celebrating each others birthdays. Usually involved surprise, pain, shock, and ingenuity. I’d already planned out this year but I wouldn’t be able to go through with it. At least not this year
