The Deep Dark Stone Path

Chapter 24 - *Dalilah*

"I'm Sam. Who are you? Where am I?" The boy asks. I answer, "I'm Dalilah. Your in my room, in my house. All that I know is that my boyfriend brought an injured wolf home last night and then you show up. Do you know why?" He nods and says, "I am a werewolf." For a second I am taken aback. What freaking world am I living in if vampires and werewolves exist?!?! "How many are there?" He looks confused but then replies with, "I am the only one left. There was a pack but they all got hunted down by witches. I'm the only survivor. I've been trying to live with wolves but it's hard." I run my hands through my hair. "Okay, so now you are telling me witches exist and your the last werewolf?" He nods and I sigh. This is so weird. "How old are you, anyways?" "I am seventeen. What about you?" I smile and say "I am seventeen, too." He smiles and says "I am really hungry. Can you give me some food?" I nod and go to the kitchen. All my siblings are awake and downstairs. My dad kisses my head and heads out the door saying, "Bye, kids, I love ya!" We all say bye and that we love him too. Audrey goes outside and tells me she is going to the lake. I tell her Austin has to go with her. Then there is just Damian. He is still eating. "Do you have any plans today, buddy?" He shakes his head and takes another bite of food. "Why don't you go to the library? You like to read." He shrugs and walks out the door. I clean up the mess they made and take the leftovers to Sam. When I walk in he's a wolf again. I set down the plate and his tail starts wagging. Oh how cute! He eats it really fast and then licks his face. I take the plate back to the kitchen. As I'm washing dishes I feel arms tighten around my waist. James kisses my cheek and says "Good morning, beautiful." I smile and say "Good morning." I turn around and he winks at me. I shake my head. I walk back in my room and Sam is back in his human form. "Would you like to live here?" I question. He looks like I just offered him a million dollars as he nods hysterically. I laugh and say, "Okay well your going to sleep in here, which is my boyfriends room. Anyways, I'll get you some clothes and then you, me, and James are going to talk." With that I go and get him some more clothes and tell James exactly what I just told Sam. We sit down at the kitchen table and stare at each other, none of us knowing how to start the conversation.
