Still. That's what we were.
Our Ethan, the cutest little boy, the little boy full of innocence, the little boy who loved all no matter what, was missing.
Actually scratch that, he was taken into evil hands.
I turned my head gently to the side meeting Grant's beautiful eyes.
"Angelica who is it?"
Do I dare tell him? Tell him that one of his only true family members has been taken?
Oh Goddess, the situation made me want to choke. The tension was surreal.
"Angelica who is it" Grant said with a little more force.
My mind couldn't really comprehend what was happening and it made me sick to the stomach.
I heard buzzing then a chuckle over the phone "Cat got your tongue, runt?" That snapped me back into reality.
I growled into the phone, my mood instantly changed into fuming one, fuck him if he thinks he'll win this.
"Listen you little piec-"before I could even finish my sentence the phone had been snatched away from me.
I locked eyes with Grant who seemed to be listening intently over the phone before he crushed it between his fingers.
"James" He said all too calmly, his face was stoic - no emotion whatsoever.
I watched him intently, I waited for his next move.
"We've got to move" he ordered, if I didn't know him any better you would think he was unfazed by the situation. But I knew he was hurting inside.
I walked up to him holding his face in my hands "You know we'll get him back right?".
He just sighed and pulled away, he paced around thinking of the next plan.
"Angelica I need you to go back please don't argue. I need to get Ethan back before anything"
"But I can h
el-" I protested, he just let me stay and now he's pushing me back again."Angelica, I need to think straight. I know I'm being unfair right now but you have to understand that you were meant to fight another time. This one's not your battle to take."
I knew I should have felt as if I should keep fighting back but I understood. This one's not for me to take.
"Okay. I'll go back" I was just going to be a distraction anyway and he tried to be polite about it. I knew what line not to cross.
He kissed me on the forehead before heading in another direction. He had insisted I have company on the way back so he assigned me a guard.
Thinking about my birthday it was a month and a day away from now, the time the moon Goddess told me when I was going to shift. Never in my life had I thought I was going to shift, I had hoped of course but I thought I was destined to stay in my human like qualities.
Rylan, who was a pack warrior was accompanying me as we walked back, from what I could tell he wasn't much of a talker, though I may have been wrong as we had to stay silent, trying to avoid attention.
Suddenly my sense heightened. My wolf emerged giving me a rush of power, I heard a twig snap. I whipped around so fast that I felt a tad bit dizzy.
Rylan hadn't noticed I wasn't following anymore. When he finally did, I was already in a alert stance. I signalled for Rylan to stay quiet and follow me, he looked confused and I wasn't sure if he could hear the footsteps or not.
We were slowly closing in on the person, the crunch of the leaves beneath he or she's foot was enough to tell me that they were relatively small or at least not a full grown man.
Then the sound stopped, I peeked through the bushes we were hiding in to see something I wasn't expecting...
Ethan?
He had a back pack and was currently sitting on a tree stump eating a banana.
I looked at Rylan for reassurance that I wasn't just hallucinating, but the stoic look on his face meant he was seeing him too.
I stood up and called him "Ethan what in the world are you doing here?" I ran to him and he looked at me before dropping everything and encircling me in a hug.
"Angel!"
I pulled away holding his face in my hand and inspected his body for any signs of harm. "Are you okay, how are you here? How did you escape the evil men? Did they hurt you?"
"Who? I walked all by myself like a big boy!" he stated proudly, smiling at me with pride.
What? James kidnapped him, he said so himself. "So no one took you, no one bad?" Rylan asked.
"Nope"
I looked at Rylan with confusion until it all clicked and his face morphed into the same realisation.
"They're walking into a trap" we said in unison.
Immediately Rylan's eyes had blurred telling me he was mind-linking Grant, I had tried to reach out to Grant too, hoping he could hear me.
Rylan's eyes had focused again and he stared at me with such determination that it was scary.
"Alpha's orders, I need you to get Ethan and yourself to the pack house, they may need me on the field. Stay out of sight and run as fast as you can and tell the others to stay inside, pack warriors will guard the perimeter of the pack"
I nodded without hesitation, Ethan who looked at me with such confusion just held onto my hand.
"Ethan we need to go, hold on tightly and don't let go." He picked up his backpack and I picked him up and ran back to the pack house before saying goodbye to Rylan.
