How do you proceed when there's a crazy werewolf killer who just might be after you? I knew I couldn't go home, the last thing I needed was for Aurora to find out that my mother might be involved also. The sheriff was still not answering his phone, I debated going to the station but it was stranded when I drove past. I dialed Caleb's number but there was no answer. I was in full blown panic mode.
Why hadn't Aurora killed me right then and there? Maybe she's not as sure as I thought she was. What was in the documents that she put in her purse?
My phone rang and I answered it without checking the caller ID.
"Sheriff?"
"What? No it's Matt."
I sighed," Matt, what do you want?"
"We need to talk, you need to tell me what's going on."
"Now is really not a great time."
"I haven't seen you in almost a week, you haven't been to class, I deserve to know the truth!"
I paused for a moment," have Kyla and Holden told you anything?"
"They haven't said anything but they've been weird lately. I got a new phone for Kyla and was able to back up some of her old text messages. When I told her, she freaked out and said to shut the phone till she comes to get it."
"That's because she doesn't want you reading the text messages."
"I know, and I would never invade her privacy, I was just looking for some clarity since nobody will tell me anything."
"You need to look through those text messages Matt," I finally said with a heavy heart. I have no idea why I felt as if I was betraying Kyla.
"What?" He sounded surprised," I can't do that."
"Yes you can, the ones between her and Holden."
"Are you serious?"
I didn't answer. I was thinking of where I was going to stay the night. I couldn't go home and put my mother at risk, I couldn't go to Caleb's since that would be the first place the rogues go to look. No one would go looking for me at Matt's.
"Matt, can I stay the night tonight?"
"Why?"
"I'll explain when I get there but it's urgent, please?"
"I don't know how Kyla will feel about it-"
"Once you read those messages you wouldn't care anymore, trust me."
He paused and then,"Yeah, I guess."
"Thank you, I'll be there in thirty minutes."
I got to Matt's house with the hopes that no one was following me. It was around eight pm when I knocked on his door and the look on his face when he answered told me that he knew everything. I smiled sadly at him.
"You read them?"
"The phone only loaded two months worth of stuff, the rest is loading."
"There's more."
