That Crazy Witchcraft

About Damn Time

Greyson was persistent, Thea had to give him that. He would be at the house every morning to offer her a ride for the rest of the week, and every day at lunch and after school he seemed to be able to sniff her out no matter where she was. Twice, she had to use her magic to block his path or knock his books out of his hand so she could escape him.

But today was Friday, and she only had classes this morning for first period, and then she was free the rest of the day to study. Bowie would be here by 3pm to take her to his pack for the weekend. And she was bloody nervous. Amiah and she had spent the night before packing and repacking her weekend bag with outfits. She had no idea what she was supposed to wear to meet the former king and queen of the UK Packs. She had no idea what they would be doing for the weekend either, so she wasn't sure if she should pack dresses or jeans, and she was terrified of getting it wrong. So she packed for every situation. She may have had to charm her bag to fit everything in, and she could always transfigure her clothes if needed.

So she was up, dressed and had the boys meet her extra early today to head to school without having to run into Greyson. She had no idea what he was up to or why he was suddenly so interested in her, but she didn't care. She didn't return his feelings. Actually, if truth be told, she felt nothing for him any more. It was actually funny to her to think that a few months ago, she had slept with the prick. That she allowed herself to believe that maybe she had been wrong about him. She was actually contemplating forgiving him for what he did the night of her birthday.

She was fucking bat shit crazy!

Furthermore, she knew what would happen if they ended up together. She would be the Luna, but he would have mistresses right, left and centre. He would probably have been made Alpha, and she would have to watch as he cheated whenever he felt like it, believing that he was entitled. She would suffer emotional abuse for the rest of her days and the worst thing of all would be that she would convince herself that she was happy, content even, when in actual fact, she was bloody fucking miserable but stuck in the life she chose.

Compared to Greyson, Bowie was a Godsend. No matter what flaws he had, she knew she was better off with him. Not that she thought for even a second that he had a flaw. He was too perfect.

And in a few short hours, he would be back in her arms where he belonged and all would be right with the world.

"So, today is the day," Lennon said jumping into the front seat of the truck as the new bodyguard, Aidan, whom Bowie sent over hopped into the back next to Kyle. It had been kind of hard to explain to everyone in school why Thea needed a bodyguard, and she wasn't sure exactly what Alpha Hanson had said was the reason. But she still got stares as he walked behind her everywhere she went. It was dead annoying if truth be told, but she knew that this was on Bowie's order and that he was simply doing his job.

"Bowie will be here before the end of school today," Thea sighed. "I can't believe how much I have missed him."

"I can't believe he managed to stay away for so long. He has been a bloody pain, checking up on you every frigging hour." Lennon looked to Thea. "I like you and all, but I don't really want to spend every second of every day checking in on you...unless I completely have to."

Thea chuckled at this as she pointed to the tin on the dashboard. "I made sausage, egg, and bacon wraps for breakfast and I knew you three would be hungry, so I made you two each." Lennon opened the tin, took out two for himself, and passed the wraps back to Kyle and Aidan. Kyle beamed as he tucked into his. Aidan looked a little uncomfortable.

"I already ate, ma'am," he smiled. "I had an apple."

"Which is not a substantial breakfast," she frowned. "You need to keep your strength up. And please call me Thea. Ma'am seems too grown up for me." Kyle passed Aidan the tin. "Now, please help yourself." Aidan looked apprehensively at the food before picking up a wrap and taking a bite. Thea watched in the rearview mirror as he closed his eyes, savouring the taste, and smiled.
