Hiding From the king( Book 2)/ Not Edited

the last I heard from him

(Samira and Shanail phone call)

I listened to her as she explained that night.

'he was in his office all day, so I showed up.

I Knocked on the door holding Jacob. As soon as he saw him his face lite up.

" I thought you would need a little cheering us." I told him passing him Jacob.

He was smiling as he played with Jacob pulling his finger from his hand, and making him laugh.'

I listened to her.

I told him he was a natural, I set on the edge of his desk folding my arms over my chest

Then I asked what the whole pack house wanted to know, how was he holding up.

He, laughed, 'How could I let this one single girl effect me like this. He said much lower to himself but I heard him.

"I'm the king!!! For crying out loud Shanail kings like me shouldn't be worried about little things like this. Kings like me should be cruel and, and mean.

"Yes,' I say cuting in, 'you are the king but a King also has a heart." The couple months that I. Been here I come to know that you will do anything for your pack and the people that you care for."

He stayed, quite handing me back Jacob that begin to cry.

He went back and set down I could tell what ever I said took a hold on him.

He looked up. And asked could I tell Max to come hear for a moment, I was just about out the door when I heard him say something about a bridge or some type. It never really dawn on me into today.

It was so much that ran to my mind. Did he really go to the bridge the same bridge that Veda told me about.

He couldn't be there? Could he.

'shaneil, did he tell you or max anything else before he left.'

She was quite and my nervous was getting the best of me.

Walking around as I could hear her talk in the back ground.

'hey, I'm back'

Really I haven't noticed I kept that little comment to myself.

'Max said they sit and talked about personal things, he told me that it felt kinda of strange because Elizer never opened up about how he felt.
After he said what he had to Max said that Elizer asked would he be his Third in command. "

'Samira, Max had told me, it was the way...'

I cut in. 'it was the way he said it. Like he didn't didn't want to be here anymore.' my voice wasn't anything but a whisper.

'don't think like that I'm sure Elizer wouldn't do anything like that, let's not jump to conclusions.'

She tells me but it went in one ear and out the other.

'ill call you back, hanging up the phone I grab my coat. Jered was by my side.

"Samira your not thinking clearly."

Oh I was my biggest goal was to find the Lycan.

'i don't think you should be going out.'

This made me turn towards him.

'what do you know that I don't know?'

He looks at me as if I lost my mind.

'i mean gosh, you were just trying to send me back.'

'yes, send you back to the pack house.'

'thats not what it is.'

'it doesn't matter, your trying to go to the bridge.' he interrupts

'why don't you want me going there, aren't you worried if he may be alive or...'

'listen me and my brother my not be close but I know him.'

I look him in the eyes, still not convinced.

With my hand on the door I yanked it open.

oh my, an older woman stood in front of me.

She smiled, "it's so nice to meet you, holding out her out stretched hand, I'm Dawn, a friend of the family.
