Kate's pov:
My heartbeat slows down when I fall asleep next to Blake and Damian. There's a sense of overweighing relief that goes through my entire body when I drift off. I remember asking him before I fell asleep if he put anything in the tea, but he avoided my question. Now, I'm sensing that something isn't right in my chest. Something jolts me awake from the haze that I've been sleeping in. When I look in front of me, I see little Damian still asleep, but not Blake...
...that is however not the first thing that strikes me when I wake up. It's the room. It's not our room from the mansion. I mean, I recognize it, but I don't know why I'm here...or even how I got here. I look around me and I don't see anything else but things belonging to me or either of the kids. There is no sign of Blake. Good thing Damian is still asleep because I think I might get a nervous breakdown if what I think has happened is in fact happening...or has already happened.
I'm about to get out of the bed when I hear steps behind the door and somebody opens it. It's my mother.
- Kate, you're finally awake...
She lets out as she approaches me as I'm sitting up.
- Mum? W-What's going on? Why are we here?
She immediately hesitates in answering the question. That only makes me more and more anxious about this whole thing. She knows something I'm not gonna enjoy knowing myself, but she's not saying a word.
- You're hesitating, mum. Where is Blake?
Something is very wrong when I actually say his name aloud. I don't feel anything...I mean the link, it's almost as if it's just...gone! Either he's nowhere near my family or he's...I can't say the word. It's too hard...
- Kate...
- Don't 'Kate' me, mum, you're holding something back I don't like it...
My mother sighs deeply before she gets up and moves around the bed and sits down next to Damian. She keeps looking at him for a moment, petting his tiny, fragile head and pulls the covers even closer to him. Keep it together. Let's just keep it together in front of Damian for now. I tell my wolf, but she's not in the mood for it. When she's missing her other half, there's almost no arguing with her. She wants to unleash something and I'm really close to letting her. I can't make any promises... She answers.
My breath is shaking, my body almost trembling and going into a state of shock. It's almost impossible for me to describe what I'm feeling, but I know it's not good. My entire body is about to lose control and my wolf is about to take command over my body as my mother looks up at me.
- Mum, where. Is. Blake?
I ask as she freezes again. She looks down for a moment as we both start hearing familiar voices outside the door. She's not going to say a word so I figure I can force somebody else to do it. As I grab the handle of the door roughly and exit the door, I hear Damian waking up by something terrible, but I don't turn back as I see Robbie and Alec further down the hall. The moment they look at me, I can tell that they're keeping something away from me.
- We. Are having. A chat. Outside...now!
I let out almost growling at them as I walk back past my room and down the stairs that I recognize from growing up here. I actually stop to look around because all of a sudden, memories of my first days with Blake appear in my mind. I sense how much I just long for him right now. The overflow of memories is too much and I have to get out of here before it gets ugly. Robbie and Alec are following me a bit behind because of Alec's disabilities as we stop right between the pack-house and the woods.
