Chapter 9

-------------------------

I give her a confused look, "Matchi?"

"He's the man that organized the attack on my pack and killed everyone but me and her. He's a terrible, horrible man," my mother explained to the Alpha.

He looked at her with anger, "How could you lead him here, he might try to do the same to my pack." he waited a moment as he was lost in his thoughts, "He's after Antheia. I need to protect my pack."

Alex tensed, "Father please-"

He was cut off by his father as he raise his hand, "She is part of our pack. She will be protected."

       The room seemed less tense after the Alpha said that. He nodded towards me and asked to talk with my mother alone. Alex and I go upstairs to my room, he noticed the window right away and growls.

"I'm going to kill whoever did this," he said in a deathly tone.

I let out an airy laugh, "I don't think it'll be that easy."

"I don't care. I'm either staying here or you're coming home with me, well both you and your mother," I sigh and agree with him.

     We sit in silence after we sit on my bed together. I can pick up bits of what our parents are talking about. They were talking about mine and my mother's safety, plus where we will be staying. It was irritating me that I wasn't be involved when the situation happened because of me. When a couple more minutes pass I finally had enough and stood up walking out of room, back where I was before coming here. Alex grams my arm but, I give him one look and he seems slightly shocked, getting go of me. Once I'm walking down the stairs and hallway, my eyes meet the Alpha's back. He grunts once he knows I'm fully in the room.

"Well? Where am going to be sleeping tonight?"

       I set down the few bags I brought on the floor of Alex's room. The walls and ceiling were a creamy white color,  at least they didn't that weird popcorn stuff on them. He had the average things in his room, a dresser, bed, closet, desk, etc. Though he seems to have multiple pictures of many different things everywhere on his walls. It didn't go unnoticed that there a few cameras sitting around. Glad he told me about his hobby... To be fair, I didn't ask either, it just would've been nice to know. I walk up to one of the walls and look at a few pinned there. A sound of a click went off the same time as a flash of light did, I turn around to see Alex with a camera in hand, he take another picture as I laugh at him.

"God that flash is bright!"

He chuckles, "Sorry, I just had to take a picture."

I rolled my eyes, "Why didn't you tell me that you're a photographer?"

"I didn't really think about it, plus hobbies never really came up," he smiles setting the camera down.

"True, well I guess we should get some rest," I walk towards his bed and removed the covers.

         Once I'm comfortable, Alex soon joins me and wraps his arms around me. I found myself extremely exhausted and falling asleep instantly. It didn't take too long before my mind started to conjure up a crazy dream again.

        As if I was waking up, my eyes open to a dark room. I look around, it was Alex's room but I could only see his bed and him laying beside me. Loud laughing causes me to jump in fright and look all around me, the laughing echoed and bounced off the walls. The light like I had let me see a tall figure creep out of the shadows. Matchi.

"Don't be so frightened, love. I know you don't being in the same bed as that monster. You'd rather be with me, right?" His voice was deep and unwavering, my lack of a response cause to become angry and growl, "Answer me!"

I growl back, "No, I'd rather be in a bed with a skunk."

He chuckled, "You'll regret that."

      With the snap of his fingers, Alex was engulfed with flames and screaming. I cried out and tried to reach for him, but sudden was being pulled back. He got further and further away. The further the distance the more a numb feeling started to fill my body. 

"Of this is just a warning.... Love," Matchi whispered into my ear.

"Shut up," with as much force as I could, I made him feel the pain I was feeling.

He grunted as he was forced to kneel down by whatever force I was using, "You see, I can help you control this before you even know it's there."

Scared I back away and stare at my hands, I look up and see his pale face. Reaching up, I choke him, "I don't exactly care what you can or cannot do. Stay out of my life." With that I snap his neck, he didn't squirm, he just stood still as I did so, as though he wanted it to happen. 

 _____________________________

      I woke up and sat up in a panic, I looked at Alex and noticed he was fine, a relived feeling ran through my body. Quickly, I look down at my hands in shock to what I just did. What did I just do? I run a hand through my hair and sigh heavily. Picking up my phone, I check the time,       4:23 am. Oh my goddess, it's so early. Alex moved a little beside me and made me feel anxious, I probably woke him up.

"Are you ok, babe?"

I laid back and faced him, "Of course, I just had a bad dream. Go back to sleep, it's still early."

He shook his head, "I have to early anyways. Tell me about your dream."

"I saw him."

His face turned into a scowl completely, "Did he do anything or say anything to you?"

Laying on my back I say, "He set you on fire."

He quickly hugged me, bringing my face to his chest, "Well I'm right here, I'm ok."

"I know, he's just messing with me and I just can't let him," I smile up at him. "Anyways, I'm going to take a shower, I didn't get to finish the one I was having last night," I sit up again and walk to his bathroom. This is going to be a long day.
