When The Hunter Becomes The Hunted//Owen Grady

Ulterior motives

It has been a few weeks since Owen had come to the island. We have gotten closer. i actually consider him a good friend which i'm not use to having.

His girls hatched about a week ago. He had asked me to be there when they hatched which meant a lot to me. His four girls are named Charlie, Echo, Delta, and Blue. The babies aren't even a month old and Hoskins is already asking to put them in the field with soldiers.

My hand has healed perfectly the only thing left to remind me of that day is the hundreds of scars. My dad still doesn't know about him mainly because of how protective he is. But my godmother Ellie knows all about him. She constantly tells me that it's love at first sight which I find highly ridiculous.

Claire has been more strict with me and is constantly working me on my days off. I'm close to collapsing from exhaustion.

It's around 6:30 at night and I'm stumbling up my front steps I lose my balance and fall to the ground. I struggle to keep my eyes open as somebody yells my name. And I let the darkness consume me and fall into a dreamless sleep.

I wake up to a pounding in my head. The last thing I remember is driving home from the lab. I don't even remember getting into bed last night. Sitting up slowly I look around confused. I jump slightly when Owen walks into the room.

"Jesus Christ Owen you scared me!" he chuckled quietly and he seemed to relax. "It's about time you woke up. Gave me a hell of a scare." he set down a tray of food. "How long have I been asleep?" i asked while rubbing my eyes.  "Almost 2 days." I thought my eyes were going to bulge out of my head. "Did you say two days?!"

Owen put his hand on my shoulder. "Easy. from what i can tell you needed it." i started getting out of bed. "I need to go check on Rexy. she's probably freaking out and starving!" i was pushed back into bed. "She's fine. I've fed her. And she is actually relaxed."

Did he just say he has been taking care of Rexy? But why would he? What does he gain out of this? I sent him a questioning look. i was reading him, trying to see his motive.

"Dammit Anna quit looking at me like that." i was taken back by what he said. "She is an animal. I wasn't just gonna let her starve. And if anything were to happen to her you would have never forgivin yourself." i smiled a little and kissed his cheek. "Thank you Owen."

He smiled at me then stood up. "Eat up and take a shower. After i'll take you to Rexy." "ican drive myself you know." he ignored me and started walking out. "Eat and shower." "yes mother!"
