“Who are you?” I growled out, as Kyle surrounded the Vulk’s other side. He was trapped with nowhere to go. Perfect. He would pay for what he had done. There were going to be consequences for attacking the Alpha. For daring to lay a claw on me. Anger boiled in my veins. Anger at myself for not sensing his presence sooner and dodging him.
His wild eyes darted from left to right and he seemed to register the fact he couldn’t run away. Not this time. He attacked one of my members when they had their guard down. How dare he! Some of the fight seemed to have left his eyes after realisation dawned on him.
“Jayden.”
“Where are you from?” Kyle demanded, barring his teeth at Jayden.
“I don’t know.”
We both regarded him suspiciously, not buying his story at all.
“You don’t know where you come from?”
His crazed eyes shifted and glimmered in confusion. Instinctively, I knew he was telling the truth. But if that was true who was he and where was he from?
“If you mean is no harm, you will return to your human form immediately,” I ordered him, exerting pressure on his Vulk. His head was forced down in submission and his form started to morph back into his human one.
As his body changed, I noticed he didn’t have a human form. In places his skin was completely grey, as if burned. He couldn’t be...Could he?

“The Charred. He’s one of them,” I whispered, feeling slightly light-headed, before complete darkness clouded me from all sides and I lost all consciousness.

Abigail was looking at me, her bright crimson eyes striking against the blackness that surrounded me. I swallowed, seeing her ferocious smile split the darkness in a blazing inferno. Her dagger-like teeth dripped with blood once again. I stood up, disorientated, and feeling like my head was spinning.
“You met him Kitty Cat.”
I shivered, meeting her malicious stare.
“Yes I did. I suppose it is only a matter of time before Jones and I are fated to meet. Fated to fight.” I grew quiet at the thought of that. Everything was coming to the fore. Once again.
