Drew's POV

Where am I?

All I can recall is being knocked out by someone and everything going black.

I take a look around, but the room I'm in is really dark and creepy. Honestly, it looks exactly the way I would expect a vampire's home to be, unlike Charina's fancy and elegant mansion.

"Lena! Where are you?" I whisper frantically. I try to get up, but something pulls me back down onto the ground where I was originally sitting.

I look down, and I realize that my arms have been chained to the back wall of the room. Charina or one of the members of her coven must've brought me here and chained me down after knocking me out. I can't believe I didn't notice that before. I'm really unobservative these days. That's just another trait that will add to the list of reasons why the members of my pack might hate me. I'll never be as strong and brave as my father. Everyone liked him so much more.

I'm suddenly knocked out of my train of thought when I hear a movement coming from the corner of the room.

"Drew?" a soft and meek voice asks. I instantly recognize it as my baby sister's.

I look towards Lena, and run my eyes over her to make sure that the vampires didn't hurt her while I was knocked out. Unlike me, she's not in chains, I guess the vamps figured that a small girl like her couldn't do much damage even if she did manage to escape.

She walks over to me and sits by my side.

"Are you hurt? What did they do to you? " I say in soothing tone, hoping to calm her of her worries.

"Nothing. At first, they tried to get me to answer some questions, but I wouldn't tell them anything. After a while, they realized that it was useless, so they put me in here," Lena replied. Her voice seemed to be gaining a little confidence as she spoke.

"I'm so sorry," I tell her, as I brush a stray strand of hair away from her beautiful face.

If I could rewind the past year of my life, there's no doubt I would. I always thought that meeting one's soulmate was supposed to be one of the best things in the world for a werewolf. Almost everyone else in my pack has a wonderful, loving mate. Who do I end up with? A vampire. I've already mentioned how much I hate vampires. To add to that, she's not even just an ordinary vampire, she's my enemy, Charina Evans.

I hate how I think she's pretty, when I'm supposed to think she's the ugliest girl in the world. I hate how I actually like hearing her voice, even though most of the time she sounds completely evil. I hate how a small part of me feels protective over her, when I'm supposed to want to kill her.

Being mated to Charina changes absolutely everything. And definitely not for the better.

"Why do you look sad?" Lena inquires in a cute, yet meek voice.

"I'm not sad, Lena. I'm just angry," I say, while letting out a sigh.

"At who? The mean vampires?"

"No, I'm angry at myself."

"Why?"

"What do you mean? Aren't you completely mad at me right now? I let you get captured by the enemy. I let our pack down," I say, my tone coming out a little harsher than I planned.

I mean absolutely everything I'm saying. After all I've done, I wouldn't be suprised if Lena feels safer around Charina and her coven than she does around me.

"I'm not mad at you, Drew. know that everything has been very hard for you lately. Let's just forget that this happened, okay?"

I'm still amazed by the maturity Lena shows for someone of such a young age. Shouldn't she be running away screaming by now? After all that's happened, I'm glad that I still have her in my life.

"What if you get killed because of me?" I ask.

"That's not going to happen," she assures me.

"Right now, just about anything could happen."

"Well, at least we're together now, right?"

I say yes just to please her, but something in my heart tells me that things are about to get a lot worse very soon.
