Jess:

"Ember! Ember!" I'm laughing and yelling as I run around trees and duck under branches. We'd been chasing each other around the forest all day. His bright white fur and his sweet yummy scent always give him away. I can smell him nearby. The scent growing stronger.

I turn around quickly only to run into a beautifully sculpted chest. My breath caught in my throat as I looked into Eli's eyes. The crystal clear blue orbs luring me in closer as his arms wrapped around me. I lifted my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me, our lips only a few inches away from each other...

Knock Knock

My eyes fluttered open.

But WHY?

I groan as I look outside to see the bright sun threatening to escape my curtains.

The birds are chirping so loudly this morning.

It also sounds like everyone is walking up and down the hallway marching and stomping as if to purposely wake me.

Oh my weirdness is acting up again.

"Honey?! Can I come in?!" I hear my mom's sweet voice yelling outside my door. Then I hear a Yip.

I cover my ears in response to all the noise.

Jeez, normally I can sort of turn this weirdness down a bit, but it doesn't seem to be working this morning.

"STOP YELLING!" I scream back.

My mother comes rushing in, holding on to me, wrapping her arms around me as another wolf comes barreling in after her.

"AGH! " I yell out, bringing my legs up to my chest.

My mother laughs, "Honey, it's just Luther..."

Oh right.

My father's Wolf.

"Sorry Luther..." I whisper as he licks my toes causing me to giggle. He yips louder as my mother shushs him.

Rounding the corner quickly, eye's glowing, looking like a magnifiect god, is Eli.

My mother looks at him confused, "Prince Eli? Is something wrong?"

He's glaring at me, "Is she ok?" He stands in the doorway, looking like he might break something. I slowly remove my hands from my ears.

Oh sweet, muffled silence is back.

I sigh, as Eli's eyes begin to turn back to his crystal clear blues again.

"I'm fine. Much better now, actually." I smile at him. Staring into his eyes a bit longer then I should, until a sudden realization hit me.

I'm still in my clothes from yesterday, and my hair is probably a wild tangled mess...

My mother looks from Eli and I before finally speaking, "Prince Eli, we were just coming here to escort Jessica to the pack Doctor."

I roll my eyes, "Seriously mom? Another doctor? More tests?" I was whinning.

I don't care if I'm whining. I have zero desire to deal with more doctors right now.

Eli chuckles, "The pack doctor is a very nice doctor, why do you hate doctors so much?.." His eyes go wide as he starts to walk towards me, "Wait? Are you sick? How is that possible? You can't get human illnesses..." He runs a hand down my cheek, making me look up at him and smile. His eyes are filled with so much concern.
