"Pack up everyone"! I heard Michael yell. "The hunters are only two and a half hours away"!

"What"? Calum said, walking into the living room where Michael and I were currently sitting.

Michael had a dozen gadgets surrounding us. According to him they were tracking devices. Since sometimes catching a scent is really risky. Instead he uses technology.

"I don't know how they caught our scent so quickly, I mean...wait" he said looking towards Becca who had just walked into the room and then back to me.

"Were either one of you wearing a perfume or smelly cream when Luke brought you here?" Michael asked with wide eyes.

"Because if you were, that scent would lead the trackers to...here". Calum added.

I shook my head, I don't normally wear perfume. I don't feel the need to smell like an air freshener.

But then I looked at Becca, and I saw that she had tears in her eyes. "Guys I-I'm so sorry, I didn't know we-"

"Oh my god" Michael stated.

"I'm sorry" Becca cried.

"How could you be so stupid"?! Michael yelled, pulling at his hair.

"Mike, stop. She had no clue that by her wearing a little bit of perfume, we would have a whole bunch of hunters on our tails" Ashton cut in, pulling Becca into a hug to try to calm her down.

It seemed to work as her sobs seemed to disappear and her breathes weren't so ragged.

"Everything is packed already" Luke said, walking back into the room. "We can leave now if you want".

"Where to now Cal"? Michael sighed.

"Canada."

"Wait, what"? I interrupted. "No, guys, Becca and I are going home. We aren't running around with you guys and leaving the freaking country. I can't leave my dad, Becca can't leave her family, we can't dropout of school, and we most definitely cannot drop our soccer scholarships" I said standing up.

"Alexis, can I talk to you for a second"? Luke said quietly.

"Luke". Calum growled. "Don't".

Despite Calum wanting him to talk to me privately, the blonde still walked away, meaning he wanted me to follow him.

Before I could even move, Calum pulled my arm slightly and mumbled a lot quick "I'm sorry".

I pulled away and wondered what that was about. Did it have something to do with what Luke was going to tell me or was it an apology for dragging me into this mess?

I walked into the dining room where Luke was waiting for me. "What"? I asked rather abruptly.

"First of all, chill". He said rolling his eyes. "And second of all, you two can't leave, unless you want to get hunted down and killed".

"Isn't that what's happening right now"? I asked, throwing my arms up into the air.

"You're protected by four powerful teenage werewolves Alexis"! "The hunters will not touch you or Becca as long as Calum and Ashton are around". Luke said, but I guess he regretted it because he clamped his hand over his mouth as soon as he said it.

I guess this boy doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut because this is like, the 3rd time he's blurted something out that he shouldn't have.

"What makes Calum and Ashton so much more powerful than you and Michael"? I asked crossing my arms over my chest.
