Jessica's Pov
I stared on as he walked out, too embarrassed to utter a single word, I'm so not letting this slide. I put on some clothes, he's clothes cause mine were dirty and I didn't really pack to be here...
'Where's everyone?' I asked a little surprised to meet just him at the dinning unlike the last time
'Mom and Dad are out, so it's just you and I' He answered with a grin
'Carlos and the others...?'
'They have their own homes, they were all here the last time to meet their future Luna' He replied as I took a bite from the delicacy in front of me, I moaned as the taste melted in my mouth, gosh! I was really hungry
'Take it easy' he said as I filled my mouth with another spoon and another
'Who made this?' I mumbled cause my mouth was filled
'My mom' he answered and we ate on
'What?' I asked cause he just kept staring, he chuckled and picked-up a napkin
'Do you always eat like this?' he asked holding on to my chin as he wiped the mess I'd made of my mouth
'I just happen to be really hungry' I replied holding my head up high as if trying to prove my point
'What's your actual name?' I asked as he put down the napkin
'Its Eric' he said
'That will take some getting used to...She kidnapped you didn't she? ' I asked though I could already tell
'Yeah... she must have found out I was your mate but I don't know why she just let me go, I fear she's up to something' he told me
'Is that why you quit? ' I asked
'Quit? ' he asked
'You know your job, Mr philip took your classes' I explained
'That must've been Friday, they got me Thursday so Mr Philip must've been placed to cover for me'
'So they got you when you left the hospital?' I asked
'The hospital?' he asked with his eyebrows scrunched up in obvious confusion
'You know after you hit me, you took me to the hospital, I even kissed you?' I said now unsure of myself
'I didn't hit you, I didn't see you again after I left the school premises until that night...'
'So he wasn't lying, he really wasn't you' I said cutting him short, eyes wide open in shock
'You kissed someone else, he wasn't lying, what are you talking about?' he asked
'He looked just like you, what am I saying it was literally you just without the memory' I explained
'Are you sure of what you're saying...'he asked
'Yeah...Do you know him' I asked as his expression went blank
'I need to see my parents, I think you met Derrick' He said as he dialed a number on his phone
'Come on, let's go'
Yaish...I'm still hungry...' I pouted as I followed up

Eric's Pov (Drew)
We got to the garage where Mom Dad and the other elders were having a meeting, they all turned in our direction as we came in, it was supposed to be a private meeting
'I'm sorry to barge in... Mom, Dad it's important' I told them
'What is it, speak' my Dad said as I looked around
'Whatever you have to say you can say in front of everyone son, these are my most trusted' he added, I nodded
'I have reason to believe Derrick is not dead' I said and for a moment my Dad just sat there frozen
'What prompts this belief?' my mom asked in the absence of my dad's response
'Jessica saw him, actually she spoke to him, she mistook him for me' I explained
'Yes I did' she affirmed, we left and headed back to the house, they still had to conclude the meeting though my dad was mentally out of it
'Who's Derrick?' she asked sitting beside me on the bed
'He's my twin brother' I told her, I couldn't believe he was alive all these years
'He was supposedly killed in an ambush when we were 11...it just makes no sense, if he's been alive, why didn't he come back,why?' I asked as my eyes turned red, she pulled my chin down to her face
'Atleast you know he's alive, whatever questions you have, it's just a matter of time, you'll have the answers' she said rubbing my chin with her palm
I leaned forward and kissed her' as we both layed on the bed I snuggled up into the crook of her neck as I drifted away
'Drew Drew! ' I heard her scream and woke up to a burning house
'We need to get out of here... ' she said with a cough
'We need to change form, we can't take the stairs, we won't survive the fire' I told her as I began transforming, she did the same
'We are going to jump out the window' I linked up to her
'But its way down'
'Don't worry your wolf can make the jumb' I assured her' I jumped out but she stayed behind
'Come on, you can do this, trust your wolf' I told her
She jumped falling on her forearms she transformed back into her human form, I ran up to her pulling her face up with mine as she just layed there unconscious
'Jess? ' I called but there was no response
'Eric we have to get out of her e' Carlos said as he came running on to where I stood
'Where are my parents?' I asked
'I don't know man, we need to leave, most of the pack has already crossed over to the other side of the river, you need to come' he said
I transformed back into my human form and carried her in my arms to meet the others by the other side
Kira's Pov
'Did you burn it' I asked
'Yes Great Alpha' Cassie replied, she was the last surving witch. After the witches were slain I found her hidden in a basket, I raised her and told no one of it...she belonged to me now, great power requires great backup
'You may go' I told her
I would have killed them all, those lowly beast but they hadn't mated yet, I need to make sure Jessica is free of the curse first. I vowed I'd see to it that the moon pack destroyed and I'm going to make sure of it. You may be wondering why? Sit back let me tell you a tale...
Many years ago there were witches, werewolves and Vampires. The witches were the oldest among us all, so they made a council in which they headed, the werewolves were already segregated into various Packs based on the lineage of the initials, the moon pack who traced their initial way back to Nyctimus was the head of the wolves at the time. We were made slaves to the witches and vampires, we did the real work all in the name of peace, the crystal Pack with the support of several other Packs came together and slayed the witches, the Vampires left, some say they went back to hell, some say they became shadows. The moon pack repelled this act and their leader had my Grandfather_leader of the Crystal pack at the time executed after which my father took over, he built a ressistance and took over the council. Time passed and the witches that went into hiding came back waging war, they killed my father, I vowed to myself I'd see to the end of the witches and the moon Pack because if it weren't for them my Father wouldn't have died.
I became the head of council and banned the Moon Pack for treason, I would have just killed them all but I was a fool, I fell for Mason a son of the moon Pack and already had our baby at the time. He promised to let me have the baby if I let the moon Pack go but he lied...he used the witches charm too keep me away
In my rage I waged war on the witches, killing them all except for Cassie... I couldn't find the Moon Pack until Caroline fell for a rogue...
