Chapter 2

"Chloe?" he asked again. I broke into a grin.

"Hey," I said. The shock vanished from his face. As the biggest grin I'd ever seen appeared on his face as he ran right towards me. He embraced me into a tight hug spinning me around.

"Nate, can't breathe," I gasped.

"Sorry," he said smiling putting me down. I laughed.

"So, you're a werewolf," I stated.

"Yup, guess so."

"I mean to intrude," Tori said. We all looked over to her. "But I was wondering, how you know Nate?"

"We were all wondering that," Said Em clearly surprised as everyone else.

"We went to art school together a couple months ago," I replied confirming their suspicion.

"You tell us everything, Nate," Em said. "Why didn't you tell us about her?"

"I didn't think I'd see her again," Nate whispered.

"Well," Kit dragged the word out. "We'll leave you to your reunion." Em, Ryan Tori, Simon, Kit and Aunt Lauren left the room leaving Derek, Nate and me alone. Until this moment I didn't realize how close I was standing to Nate. I took a step back to relieve myself of the awkward closeness. Immediately Derek's arms were behind me wrapping around my waist. I was then aware of Derek's face nuzzling my neck.

"Well, I'm going to excuse myself from this awkward moment and get something to eat," Nate said.

"Okay," I whispered.

"Come find me later, Chloe, We'll catch up then," he gave me a weak smile and left. Derek seem oblivious to my conversation with Nate and was now kissing my neck.

"Derek," I said turning around to face him. He finally looked up and stared me in the eyes.

"I don't like him," he said. "He was staring at you." He stated. "I didn't like it."

"I like you Derek," I cupped his cheeks with my hands. "Don't be jealousy of Nate."

"I'm not jealous," he lied. "But, ya, I guess I'm just being paranoid." He sighed.

"Good," I leaned up and gave him a quick kiss before leaving to find Nate. I walked into the kitchen to find him leaning against the wall looking out the glass patio door. He looked up at me when I walked into the room and gave me a faint smile.

"Wanna go for a walk?" he asked nodding out into the woods.

"Sure," I replied. I slipped on my shoes then I walked outside with Nate following closely behind me. We walked for about ten minutes in silence into the woods before Nate spoke.

"So if you're here you're a supernatural, right?" he asked clearly wondering what I was.

"Ya, I'm a necromancer." I said.

"Cool, Can you raised the dead?" I laughed.

"Yes. I accidently did it once when I was sleeping." I mused.

"Serious?" He asked completely shocked. "I heard that raising the dead is extremely hard."

"I guess I'm special then," I smiled up at him. He suddenly stopped and looked around like he was searching for something.

"You hear that?" he asked. I listened carefully not hearing anything.

"No," I said shaking my head. I saw his eyes go wide in fear.

"Run!" he yelled. I had no idea what was going on, but I turn and ran back towards the house with Nate trailing right behind me. I took a few steps before falling flat on my face from tripping on a falling branch. I stood up quickly with Nate's help as now he was extremely alarmed. His head snapped back towards whatever we were running from. He then raced the wrong way - away from the house. Then I saw why. Werewolf. More specifically Ramon. Nate walked up to him and hit him in the jaw with a force that would send anyone flying backwards but Ramon just stumbled back. Then I saw a wolf in the bush and it look like it was about to jump on Nate but Nate's concentration was fully focused on Ramon.

"Nate!" I cried. He snapped out from his daze, shocked, and suddenly saw the big brown wolf. The wolf jumped on him tackling him to the ground. I stared horrified at the fight. I was suddenly aware of Ramon now standing in front of me.

"Hey, Sweetheart," he drawled. He walked closer to me which made me back up until I hit a tree. Ramon was now inches away from my face. He smiled.

"We were waiting," he said making me wonder what he was waiting for. I guess I got nothing to lose now. I decided to ask.

"Waiting for what? And who is we?" I whispered completely terrified.

"I work for the pack," he grinned. "They don't like stray werewolves running around so I guess the Edison group isn't your biggest problem."

"What does this have to do with me?" I asked. He sighed, clearly bored of my constant questioning and stupidity or lack of understanding of what he was saying.

"It means if I take you, Derek's mate, to the pack, Derek will follow to do anything to protect you." I sucked in a sharp breath and shook my head looking down as Ramon silently laughed. I looked behind him to see Nate lying unconscious on the ground. I looked back at Ramon and before I could run anywhere his hands clamped on my shoulders holding me in place no matter how much I struggled to get away. The brown wolf that had now turned back human walked towards me with a needle that he drew from his pocket. He took the needle and plunged it into my bicep and pulled it out. This left my arm extremely sore from the needle and Ramon's tight grip. Both wolves looked at me expectantly. Then my vision suddenly started to get dark spots and I found I could no longer hold myself upright. I ended up falling into Ramon's arms which were stretched out to catch me. I looked up at the clear blue sky as my whole world went black.
