"Okay, you've got it! Now see if you can direct it at that log over there," Blaise says, clutching the nozzle of the fire extinguisher tight in his right hand while the other holds the canister. We would no doubt need to buy a whole bunch at this rate.

My eyes are on Sky as she stands in my backyard, which is basically the forest surrounding pack lands, her face reflecting deep concentration. She focuses her gaze on the bright red flame hovering inches off her right hand before it shoots forward five yards, the flame engulfing the log that is about a yard away from Blaise. He jumps in fright before aiming the nozzle and dousing the fire until it is out. The last thing we needed was a whole forest fire.

"I did it!" Sky shouts, her eyes finding mine, as she bounces up and down on her feet.

Raina and Ally, who are sitting next to me on the deck surrounding the house, shout words of praise, their faces exuding as much excitement as Skys. It was nice to see them not whispering to each other, something that had constantly been happening since we got back from Andreas' place a couple of days ago. They were being so careful that even with my hearing I couldn't pick up one word of what they were saying to each other in those instances.

Looking over at Sky, I am happy she has finally pulled herself out of the glum mood she has been in since we had arrived back from Andreas' villa. While we had initially planned on staying for a couple of days, we ended up leaving after Sky's nap. Her desire to be back home seeped through our bond, purposefully I think, and I had suggested we return here sooner rather than later. The gratitude on her face at the suggestion did not go unnoticed. Andrea and Mira understood. It appeared that Mira and Sky had formed some sort of bond in a short space of time, prompting Mira to suggest that they spend their honeymoon and Christmas with us. On pack lands. In my old house.

My eyes find Mira sitting next to Raina on the deck, Andrea leaning next to the frame of the cabin close to her. After the feeling I had at Andreas villa of something not feeling quite right, I confronted Sky, voicing my concerns, my intuition telling me something was up. But she assured me everything was okay and that she was just tired. I dropped the subject, not wanting to mither her. All I could do was keep a lookout for anything unusual.

"Okay, tomorrow we will continue harnessing your teleportation abilities. You did really well today Sky. You should be proud of yourself," Blaise says to her, his usual abruptness gone. Not surprising as he was always different with us in front of Raina and Ally. Now that there was an even bigger audience with Mira and Andrea watching on, he was on his best behavior.

Getting up, I take a bottle of water off the table, handing it to Sky as I reach her.

"You are getting better and better," I say, kissing her on her forehead as she beams up at me.

"If you're not too tired, there's time for me to teach you something else?" I ask, raising my brow in a question.

"Sure, I'm up for anything." She blushes and looks away, her mind definitely on something a little dirtier. The sexual tension between us sparks as the innuendo of her words sits heavily between us.

"If we didn't have an audience, I'd definitely teach you something that has a more... hands-on approach," I say, smiling as she splutters on the sip of water she has just taken.
