۵Ashton's POV

Paris, Eudora, Sage, and some other guy with really light blonde hair walk in. I hide Zane's phone in my pocket.

Who is this dude? He doesn't seem gay, but he might be Sage's so called mate.

Eudora walks over to Zane with a smile and hugs him, he smiles and hugs her back before planting a kiss on her forehead. Then, I see something flash through his eyes. He really wants to find out what's going on and I do too. But, the unknown scares me.

I look over at Paris and smile, she's so freakin gorgeous. She doesn't have a bit of makeup on but I like that because then I can kiss her without getting it on my face.

"Ashton, Zane, you've met Sage, this is his boyfriend, Cloud." Paris says with a smile.

Cloud smiles and says, "Hi." Sage looks at him and laughs a little and Cloud laughs a little with him.

I can understand if they are mates. I can see their connection by just looking at them.

I don't doubt that werewolves exist, because I think I've seen one. No. I know I've seen one. I know she was a werewolf. Nobody knows, but she saved me.

My thoughts get broken by everyone's laughter, I must have missed out on a joke. Everyone's attention is on Cloud as he finishes his story but I have no interest to listen. I've already missed the punchline.

I look over at Paris to find her looking at me with furrowed eyebrows. I smile a little and make a funny face at her, trying to show her that nothing is wrong. Nothing really is wrong, but for some reason I just don't feel like myself.

She smiles and shakes her head at me before coming and sitting beside me on the couch.

Sage and Cloud sit on the couch across from us and Eudora sits beside Paris while Zane is sitting on the arm of the couch beside Eudora.

They all talk and laugh with each other while Zane and I stay kind of quiet. We listen and laugh when we're supposed to, so we don't seem zoned out or not paying attention. I look up at him to see him focused on the floor, deep thought in his eyes.

I reach across and thump him, he looks at me confused then realization hits him and he looks back towards the conversation.

I really don't care if Paris and Eudora have powers, it's not going to change mine and Paris's relationship or mine and Eudora's friendship.

But, then, there is something inside me that is begging me to find out. I try to ignore that voice but it's going to eat me alive until I do know for sure.

I look at Paris and intertwine our fingers and give them a light squeeze. She looks at our hands then looks up at me. Something flashes through her eyes and a smile tugs at my lips.
