"Lindsay..?" I stammered looking at my sister sitting in front of me.

It was like when you see something but then someone else points out what it really is. It opens your eyes. I stared bewildered at my sister whom I had left years ago.

No wonder when I had first came in contact with her near the stream she portrayed my sister. Her blonde hair and her brown eyes were still the bright color they had always been.

"Yeah it's me." She gave a half hearted smile.

I didn't know whether I should be mad at her or happy that she's here. She did treat me like crap, but it didn't seem intentional. Just like everyone else, her face gave off a different intention; it was forced.

I decided it was wrong to just wave it off, I mean she did come out here and sat in a prison for about a week.

I jumped up from my chair and went to wrap my arms around her. Hers connected around my waist and I could feel her tears sinking into my shirt.

I pulled away and looked at her.

"I've missed you so much." She sobbed and gave me a happy look.

"Same." I said and grabbed her for another heart warming hug.

About then I heard the door open behind me and turned around to see Graham giving us confused looks.

"Umm Melony... Why are you hugging my mate and why is she crying?" He asked rubbing his eyes.

"Graham, meet my sister, Lindsay." I said.

His jaw dropped and he shut it before letting it fall again.

"Are you serious?" He asked glancing at Lindsay for approval of it.

"What you don't believe me? You think I just go and hug random rogues and they cry onto my shoulder?" I have him a look and he chuckled.

"I guess not." He murmured and made his way over to Lindsay.

He intertwined his fingers with her and she looked up at him lovingly. He smiled down at her and pecked her cheek. It was times like these that I wished I still had Connor. He used to look at me like that. But now, there was no time for wanting him back. I had officially moved on.

I smiled yet again at my sister, still in shock that she was actually standing right in front of me.

"Since you are family, you won't be staying here any longer. You can join Graham and I at the pack house. It's usually only is unless someone stops by." I explained.

"Thanks Melony. It means a lot. The prison isn't very.... Welcoming." She laughed. Oh how I had missed that sound.

We walked by to the house. Graham and her strolled a little ahead with their fingers laced together. Usually mates were un-attachable when they met.

I watched them and their loving actions comparing everything to Connor and I's old relationship. It was fairly the same except theirs was probably going to end well.

"Psst." I whipped my head up to the lovely couple to see if they made the sound but they kept on walking.

I peered around but didn't see anything.

"Psst over here." Someone whispered.

I looked over to the trees and felt a presence there.

"Hey guys, I'm going to go for a run. See you at the pack house later." I called out.

Graham and Lindsay turned around and gave me small waves before returning to their trek back.

I cautiously entered the forest and searched around for the mysterious voice.

"Hello?" I whispered. "Anyone there?"

After waiting for about five minutes, someone finally replied.

"Over here." The voice came from behind me this time.

I turned around quickly to see a guy, around my age, standing there smirking at me. He had dark hair that whipped across his face and appeared soft and fragile. His eyes seemed a dark green in the light that was supplied by the forest, and his body was sculptured nicely, including his rough jaw bone. A nice pair of khaki shorts clung to his hip bones and he sported a light yellow polo.

"Why hello there." I said. Even though he was incredibly sexy, I couldn't let my guard down. "Who are you?"

"You know me." He smirked and I searched around my brain to find any trace of who this guy was, nothing.

"I'm not very sure I do." I stammered out.

"I'm Carter." He said and reached his hand out for me to shake.

I looked at it, then took it in my hands as his shook it lightly up and down.

"I'm not familiar with any Carters." I shrugged and gave him a once over.

"Well up to now I've always been invisible to you. Lets just say I'm your creepy stalker guy."

My mind clicked when he said the last part and I stepped back and have him another look up and down. Well, never expected him to be hot.

"Wh..what? You're the guy who told me I was a wizard."

"Indeed I am. It's very nice to meet you face to face." He smiled.

Why yes, yes it is nice getting to see your face. Oh shit I hope he can't read minds or anything. I blushed and gave him a small smile back.

"So why are you here?" I asked, biting my lip.

"I wanted to talk to you. Since you just became aware of your powers, I think it's best if I trained you. Only if you'd want though. But I could teach you lots of stuff and the process would go faster." He explained.

I could spend hours with this hottie. Deal! Even thought I had a mate and was an alpha that was looked up to, in the end, I was still a nineteen year old teenager with hormones.

"Umm okay. When do you want to start?" I asked.

"Tomorrow at the stream?" He suggested and I nodded my head.

"Okay then, I guess I'll see you there."

"I guess you will." He flashed me another smile and it was almost as if it had sparkled it was so perfect.

Then with a flick of his finger he disappeared from my sight.

I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. Why did he have to be so darn cute?
