Rhylor [The Ultima Manhunt B2]

Chapter 19 - A Rule is Meant for Wolves

Harper and her mom arrive at Bunny Hill as the former stands in front of the lodge with a hand on her suitcase. Time to find out who my mate is. She takes a step forward as two cars pull up to the lodge's front entrance.

The Phoenix swivels her head around sharply and merely smiles.

"Harper! Hey!" Alina waves as she jumps out of the car while a brunette with blonde highlights hands the werewolf her suitcase.

"Hi Alina. Guys." Harper nods her head a bit to the others when they hop out too.

"Hiya Harper!" Forest comments loudly then giggles. "This is going to be so much fun! Am I right?"

"Oh, yeah. Real fun." the females hear a sarcastic response come from Harper's crush.

He walks ahead of them, tossing a hard glare at Alina when he passes her. She growls quietly and huffs. Alina grabs her suitcase and storms in.

"What's their deal?" Max asks aloud.

Let's see, Blade's adopted and is probably mad at her, I'm not sure. But, Harper couldn't just say that for she doesn't know if they even are aware of it. She guesses, they aren't.

"Eh, they probably didn't want to be here." Nathan says. "I wouldn't either from what my mom told me."

"Remember kids, don't do anything too crazy and definitely, for the love of Irene, do not force drama all over again!" Zane shouts. "It would be a nightmare if that happened again."

"We'll try not to, Dad. Though, I can't exactly guarantee it." Nico shrugs his shoulders lightly.

"Why don't you kids go find your room and we'll meet you inside." Nana tells the group of teenagers.

"Sounds good, Mom! Come on guys!" Nico shouts. "Race you in!"

Max immediately darts in after Nico runs inside. Forest sighs as she and Harper walk in.

Nathan trails behind the two girls then stops abruptly. "I take it Max and Nico are sharing a room?" he snorts.

"Looks like it." Forest replies as the werewolf and meif'wa in question run past the four.

"Forest, want to share with me?" Nathan asks the witch.

She merely grins. "Definitely, handsome." she comments and turns to face Harper. "What about you? Who are you sharing with?"

"I don't know." Harper says. "But whoever I end up with as my roommate, better not be bitchy."

(TEN MINUTES LATER)

Zane wheels the last bit of luggage into the lodge as Nana collapses on a nearby chair.

"Finally! We're done, Zane." she murmurs.

She makes a move to close her eyes for a few minutes but before the meif'wa even can, someone comes walking down the stairs holding a hand to their temples.

The person clenches their eyes close then almost sways in place before Zane guides him to a seat beside Nana.

"Blade, what happened?" Nana whispers. "You look awful."
