Chapters (20)
"I want the same but she is fated for Jaxson. Harris said a witch fated them to be together. I can understand her point of view. I’m a human who has just appeared in Jaxson’s life and kissed the wolf she has been told her whole life that is meant for her. You should have seen her face after Jaxson shouted at her. She was heartbroken, she really cares for him and I felt bad for her." I tell Alex.
"Witches are wrong all the time; Drake said that once to Wyatt." She tells me.
"I won't make him choose between his pack and me. I don't think he feels the same anyway. He walked away from me today, knowing it would break me." I say. I finally sob into my hands before wiping the tears away.
"Oh Winter," she pulls me to her and lets me cry it out.
"I'm sorry for being a baby." I pull back.
"Don't be, what are sisters for?" She winks at me.
"How about more junk food and more funny movies?" I ask.
"Perfect." She laughs. We spend a night being lazy and having fun. I force myself to forget about everything else. It was just what I needed.
Chapter Eighteen
The last day of university went well, Harris didn't turn up but Alex stayed with me. I clearly worried her last night by opening up about nearly everything. I still haven't told her about the eerie life-like dream. I haven’t brought up the fact that the woman in my dreams talked about a prophecy and then everyone seems to think I have something to do with it. I would be stupid to bring it up to any wolves, they might kill me on the spot. I don’t know if I should tell Wyatt. I’m replying to Atti, who somehow got my number this morning, he has sent me pictures of his cats. I have to admit they are far bigger than I expected and I have a really funny one of his cat, Mags, asleep on a porno magazine. Atti said that the magazine belongs to Dabriel. I highly doubt that is true. I am happy he got my number, his funny messages and pictures have kept me smiling all day.
My phone rings, making me smile when I see it's my mum.
"Hey,mum." I say relieved to talk to her.
"Hey, baby, one day until I get a hug." She squeals down the phone and I chuckle.
"I'm just packing now," I tell her, knowing it will make her happy.
"Only packing just now, oh Winter that is last minute. I've brought all your favourite food for when you’re home." She changes the subject. I know she will take everything out my bag when I get home anyway and wash it all. That’s my mum for you.
"The local shop’s chocolate fudge pie?" I inquire as my mouth waters.
