Chapter 19 - Katherine

Katherine's POV

Jasper was now reading a book in his bed and Elanor and Sebastian talked quietly. I tried not to listen in on their conversation. Zack and Luna cuddled in Zack's bed.

Gale had said that they weren't official. I was guessing it was a friends with benefits. Well, they sure didn't seem like friends.

Suddenly, the door barged open and in came Gale and Cam, dragging a struggling Vivian in with them.

"What the..." I muttered before I jumped off of Jasper's office chair. Everyone else had the same reaction.

"Let go of me!" Vivian screamed through her clenched jaw.

"What the fuck?!" Jasper spoke as he stood from his bed and rushed to his sister. "What are you doing with her?!"

"She was outside our window." Gale replied as he looked at Sebastian and then to Zack. They got the message immediately and rushed to Gale's bed.

Sebastian dragged out a grey briefcase and Zack unlocked it with his fingerprint.

"What are you..." Jasper muttered before Zack revealed a needle and rushed to Vivian.

"Yes, inject me with your fluids Gale-" Vivian's tease turned into a slurred sentence as she stopped trying to break free of Gale and Cam's hold and became limp as she passed out.

Jasper was about to speak before I grabbed his arm. He turned his head to look at me and I shook my head before looking at Gale.

"Jasper..." Gale muttered, letting go of Vivian to let Cameron carry her and stepped forward. "I think we need to have a little talk..." Jasper looked at him and then back at me.

I looked into his eyes and hypnotised him. "Go talk with Gale."

"I'll go talk with Gale." His voice was monotone as he turned around and walked to the door with Gale.

As soon as the door shut, I looked at Zack and Sebastian. "Has that briefcase been there the whole time?" I asked.

They looked at each other and then back to me, they nodded in sync.

One of my hands landed on my hip while the other landed on my forehead and I shut my eyes. "And I couldn't smell it...?" I whispered to myself but I'm pretty sure everyone heard.

I'm letting my guard down...

"You're letting your guard down..." Cameron muttered.

I looked up at him and gave him a sarcastic smile. "Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't notice." I walked to Jaspers office chair and sat back down. "Asshole..." I whispered.

"What on earth is going on?" Luna asked, scaring the shit out of me. Another example of my guard being down.

"She's a turned demon." Cameron replied coolly.

"Oh my...-" Luna muttered. "Is anyone here not a supernatural being?!"

"Well, technically demon hunters are human." Elanor said, walking up to Luna to calm her down.

Luna and Jasper were the only humans in our little friend group. Demon hunters don't really count.

**********

I couldn't sleep. My head was too loud. Thoughts of Knox and what he could have done if no one knew he was here. If Gale wasn't able to warn Cameron in time.

Gale was forced to sleep in his own bed by Elanor who said that she didn't want his aura in our room. It must be a witch thing.

I miss him. I'm not supposed to miss him, but I do, and I hate myself for it.
