Chapters (20)
“Dab, what are you talking about?” I shout and he doesn’t look back as he walks out. A few people stare at me but it’s like they didn’t notice Dab was here. You couldn’t miss a guy like that. My palms sweat as I wonder what he was talking about. The only party I can think of is the wolf one, and I don’t think I’m invited anyway. What the hell was he talking about, death is chasing me?
I’m half tempted to call Wyatt and ask if Dabriel is crazy but it’s my turn to get my cakes and I decide to leave it.
Dead on an hour later, I pull up at the main house. A few young boys with their mother walk past my car, looking in interest before their mother shouts at them.
"We don't stare at human girls, let's go."
"Why not?" The first boy asks. All the times I’ve been here, I haven’t seen any girl children running around. A lot of boys like these ones but not girls. It really strange to see.
"It's not allowed, she shouldn't be here." The mother says looking directly at me now. It's clear she knows my windows are down and I can hear every word she says. The boys look down and follow their mum, walking away into the woods.
I lock my car before walking up to the two 'guard' wolf’s at the front door. I'm just about to knock when the door is opened for me by Freddy, who pulls me into a strong hug.
"Hey, little wolf," I say.
"Hey I'm not little, I missed seeing you around the pack, Winter. Uncle J wouldn't let me come to see you after the meal. He made Anna watch me when you were here so I wouldn’t be able to sneak in." He says with a little blush and I mess up his hair as I speak.
"That sucks but I'm okay, I promise," I tell him.
"Good. I don't want you to leave us." He says, his eyes filled with emotions and I just want to hug him, and say I’m never leaving.
"That enough Freddy," Fergus says sternly, coming to join us on the porch which now feels very small.
"Jaxson is waiting for you in the training cabin," Fergus tells me as he lays a hand on Freddy’s shoulder. A kind smile on his face as he looks at Freddy.
"Right, well I will see you around Freddy." I mutter to him and gently hug him under the watchful stare of Fergus before walking away. I forgot the cakes, so I quickly get them out the car before walking to the training cabin.
I find Jaxson hitting the shit out of a punching bag as I walk in. His back goes stiff as he notices me in the room, even if I didn't make any sound.
