13.

When I woke up we ended up back in the house and in Cora's living room.  when I was completley coherent she explained what she meant.

"This is way to Harry Potter/Neville Longbottom to me,"  told Cora as I rubbed my temple. "Well Harry Potter ish or not its the truth, Emma was born before you were and Julianne took matters into her own hands," Cora told us. "Emma?" Lucas asked. The name seemed familar but it wasnt really putting a face to the name. "Your Uncle Eli's daughter," Cora told me. "But Uncle Eli is a SkinWalker he was bit my his daughters mom..." I trailed off.

"Nadia was a werewolf, and Eli was and still is a PureBlood, but when Julianne found this out, thanks to the legend, before she knew where Sophie was or of what she was going to do, she acted fast. She was never a harmful person, she just wanted and still does want, control. So when she found out that Nadia was going to get pregnant..." she sighed. "Thanks to me unfortunately, she placed a SkinWalker in Nadia's path, he turned Nadia and essentially Emma and then Nadia bit Eli. Julianne thought she was adverting the prophecy but then Sophie met Ezra and Ryder and here you are." she told me. "So Emma, could still kill Julianne, she's still the creation of a Pure Blood and a Werewolf!' I exclaimed.

James went white. "Actually she cant," he stammered. "What? Why not?" Lucas asked. Cora looked at James confused then her face went slack. "Because...Emma isnt Eli's daughter," he told us. My eyes rolled back in my head and my head slumped as I slid down in my chair.

"We...have...to...stop...doing...this..." James said between kissing Nadia. Nadia, who was tall and curvaceous and had long waist length strawberry blond hair giggled as she pushed James down to the bed. "Eli wont be home for another 2 hours thats plenty of time to.." she grinded against his leg and James groaned. "No its not right," James stammered as she started to unbutton his shirt. "It feels right," Nadia said she she got frusterated and ripped his shirt off him and started to kiss down his chest.

James closed his eyes. "No, Nadia for real this time, we have to stop this, its not right, Im betraying my best friend," he told her. Nadia didnt listen. He pulled her up roughly and she clenched her jaw. "We have to stop we cant do this anymore." he told her. Tears swam in her eyes. "You dont want me?" she cried. "No thats not it! You know I do but if Eli ever found out..." Nadia interrupted him. "Found out what? Found out that we were fucking around behind his back or Found out that the baby he thinks is his is really yours?" she snapped.

James face went neutral for a moment. No emotion showing. Finally he got up and grabbed his shirt. "Goodbye Nadia," he said and then he walked out the room.

I came to with a pounding headache, I didnt know which was worse, seeing memories or images that werent mine to see or dreams...then it clicked. James was Emma's dad? He was my cousins dad? Or well she wouldnt be my cousin now would she? I started to get angry and even more confused. I knew James was older, I knew how that worked but oh my god Emma was what...i thought really quick almost 6 years older than me?

Cora was pacing around the kitchen, muttering about how she hadnt seen that and James had his head in his hands and Lucas was just sitting there. My body started to pulsate. 'Eden calm down," Lucas said as he shot up from the chair next to me. He was my Life Mate, he marked me, and yet he cheated on his best friend, fathered a child and kept it from me! I was livid. I could feel the energy rolling through my body and  I was having trouble controlling it. I barely heard what Lucas was telling me. My eyes focused on James. 'No Eden please, Im sorry," he pleaded. I didnt reply. I shot my hand up and as I threw the fireball I had conjured at him Lucas knocked me down to the ground.

"What is wrong with you!" Lucas snapped. He shook my shoulder until I zoned back in. I started to cry. "He...I...We...." I just let the sobs engulf me. Although none of this was done intentionally to hurt me, it felt like the deepest level of betrayal.

Lucas helped me up and I walked up to Cora and asked her for a room in which I could lay down. Lucas followed and as I laid on the bed he held me close. I let the tears fall as my best friend comforted me and I laid there in silence thinking of how hard it would be to look James in the eye.

I heard a scream. I bolted up in the bed and looked around frantically. lucas was knocked out. Ilooked at the clock next to the bed. The digital numbers read 230a. I was close to deducing the sounds as a nightmare then I heard the gutteral scream again. James? I got up from the bed quickly and walked out into the hallway. I tiptoed down it following the screams. God what was she doing to him! I ran down the stairs and stopped by the basement door. I didnt hear anything and just when I was about to move away I heard him scream again. I flinched at the pain inflected in his voice. I reached out to grasp the door knob amd opened the basement door quietly hissing as it creaked. "STOP!" the screaming voice pleaded. Shit that was James! "PLEASE! JUST AHHHHHHHHH!" he screamed as I heard a crack of a whip. "You can shift anytime now James,' Cora demanded. "I cant!" James cried out.

I took a deep breath willing myself not to cry at the pain in his voice. I took a tentative step down the stairs. "And why's this!" Cora asked as she let loose on what I presumed was a whip again. Another two cracks ensued and I cringed. "PLEASE STOP! YOU KNOW WHY I CANT!" he was crying uncontrollably now. "DO IT!" Cora demanded. Crack! "DO IT JAMES!" CRACK. I took another two steps, my whole body shaking in fear. The bottom of the stairs reached me before i was ready for them. "STOOOOPPPPP!" James screamed and then he was silent. I turned the corner and looked out into the room. James was chained to the wall, bare chested, his jeans hugging his waist, but he was bleeding all over from the cracks of the whip. "Your weak," Cora told him. "Im not,' he snapped. "Then SHIFT!" she yelled at him. "I cant!" he yelled back. She let loose on the whip and I let out a grasp. They didnt hear me. What? "That little piece of silver isnt keeping you from shifting and you know it." Cora taunted. I was so lost. What was going on? What piece of silver? I looked over him and saw it, a small thin choker like necklace around his neck. "easy for you to say, youre not getting electrocuted everytime you try to shif...AHHHH!" he let out a gut wrenching wail as she whipped him across the face. "SHIFT!" she yelled again, she walked up to him and lifted his chin with her hand so he was looking her in the face.

"Youre pathetic," she hissed. He said nothing. "Enough for tonight," she said. Then she unlocked his arms from the chains and he collapsed from his hold and fell to the ground in an unconcious heap.

I woke up screaming. Lucas bolted up and when he realized nothing was wrong he pulled me in close. "Whats wrong?" he asked as he rubbed my back. "Nothing..." I said. "Just a bad dream,"
