"So what happened now?" ask Annadin, sitting on my bed.

We're supposed to go to a meeting but I'm taking my time. I just want everyone in this cabin to be out before I made my presence.

I just don't like the attention especially I'm the star since last night.

I woke up to an empty bed and on time to hear the announcements of us to gather at the hall. So I quickly clean the room, making sure Jaxon scents is gone.

I was about to pull on my shirt when Annadin came knock on my door. And now here we are taking our time.

I pull on my shirt, turning to her. "I don't know but I don't want to go out yet" I say and look back at her.

"You know, you can't hide in here forever" she said.

"I know" I muttered, letting out a heavy sigh. Then tie my hair up in a pony tail before I grab my sneakers putting them on.

"Did Jaxon, drop by tonight?" she asked and I gulp nervously. Please don't let her know. I pretend and threw a look at her. "Why would he?" I ask her.

Annadin shrug her shoulders. "I don't know but the way he look at you last night was something else besides your bed kinda reeks of him" she casually said.

"Waitler me smell it again if its him"

I let out a laugh wriggling my brow at her. "You know if only that we're true and it would be nice to bang him." I giggle and Annadin laugh at me.

"Thinking of sleeping with the men?" she cheekily said and I play along with her.

"Of course, I mean why not? It would help the wounds of last night beside Jaxon seems to have the whole package" I say with a laugh.

Annadin grins at me. "Gosh, if only we could bang all of them"

"Ewww gross Nadin... Not like that" I say covering my ears.

"But-" "Noo" I sing out loud. Annadin try to make me listen to her but I keep on singing louder.

The knock on the door made us both stop.

"Who is it?" I call out.

No one reply, but only a knocking on the door.

"I said who is it?" I call out again.

"Ms. Barlowe, you are needed in the office" said a manly voice from behind.

"Office?" it's strange that everyone is needed at the hall, then why am I needed at the office.

"Yes," came his reply.

Nadin look at me mouthing strange.

"Okay. We'll be there" I said and move towards the door to hear if he had move unfortunately he has not.

"Ms. Barlowe, you are needed right now" he sounded demanding this time.

Annadin quickly got up on her feet. She gesture for me to move away from the door.

"Ms. Barlowe" the door wiggles before the person pounded on the door harshly.

"Open the door" he demands again.

Annadin and I step further away from the door and towards the window.

Yes, we are doing exactly what everyone is thinking, jumping out of the window.

"Remember, I ask nicely" he said and with that he kick down the door. Too shock to move or jump as we plan to we both stare at the fuming half shifted wolf.

He growls at us.

'I can do this' I thought and hold my stance ready to defend. Annadin pull at my hand to get us away but its too late the wolf jump at us.

And I ready myself to see if I can take on him or might as well die right there in my room.
