Seth's Pov

Klank! Bang! Bang! Bang! Klank! Bang!

The sound of me banging a wooden spoon against a skillet rang throughout the house, forcing whatever living being that was living under this very roof to wake up and smell the roses.

"Attention all kids in their beds, please remove yourself from your bed and head down stairs for breakfast, it's time for your first day at work" I announced in a commanding voice, probably doing a poor imitation of it but I shrugged my shoulders not really caring.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Klank!

I continued to bang the spoon against the skillet till finally the doors were wrenched open, and I was hoping to see my kids happy and lively and ready for their very first day at work. Just one problem.

"AH!" I yelped as I was met with pillows being thrown at me from my very own children. Quickly dropping the skillet and spoon, I was able to dodge all and catch a few of the projecting items and toss them to the side before I was greeted with the view of my kids, only for my view to be blocked as I missed the small pillow that was thrown at me by Ashley. I huffed in annoyance as the pillow dropped to the floor. "Are you done now?"

"…." The only answer I got were glares of hate as they slammed their door at me one more time. "Go away!" both my kids shouted at me.

I sighed as I bent down to pick up my noise makers and raised them at the ready. "Don't make me continue" I held my hands at the ready. But I was only met with silence.

…

…

It took a while till finally something happened. Xavier exited from his room, giving me a glare as he headed for the bathroom, soon after Ashley appeared from her room also giving me a glare as she headed for the down stairs bathroom.

"Better hurry up you two, otherwise we're going to be late" I called after my kids as I headed for my own room, having only been dressed in pants and a singlet. "What a way to start the morning" I said to myself as I finished dressing and grabbed my bag and stuff for the day and headed for the stairs needing to get a start on breakfast.

It was probably five to ten minutes before both my kids appeared in the kitchen, both wearing their newly ironed and pressed uniform. The boy's uniform consisting of a black polo shirt with the company's name and logo printed on the back and on the front it had 'Xavier' sowed just above the breast with black work pants and a pair of new and polished steel-capped work shoes.

As for the females it had the same shirt as the males, but you could either go with brown or black, and had 'Ashley' sowed just above the breast and also had black work pants and also a pair of black new and polished steel-capped shoes.

I smiled at my babies in pride as they ate breakfast sloppy, showing that neither of them are morning people. 'Just like their father' I mused as I turned around and started on the dishes, having already eaten, as thoughts of the way my kids were acting, were the same as their father would be doing in the morning.

xXxXxXx

Jacob's Pov

As I headed for the breakfast table I didn't walk like how I taught my kids, or how you're really meant to walk, like a normal person. No I dragged my feet till I reached the breakfast table, and plonked down on the chair, and groaned as I rested against the uncomfortable wooden chair.

'If I ever find the person who through that a wooden chair would be best used for the dining table for breakfast. Imma strangle them' I thought as I waited for Leah to serve breakfast up. It was the weekend so I was in luck and didn't have work for the day, but I did have patrol, but that wasn't till later at night.

"Morning sweetheart" Leah called as she entered the dining room, a plate of bacon in hand and serving it on the table, along with eggs, sausages and mountains of toast waiting and ready to be devoured.

"Morning…" I muttered as I returned the kiss Leah gave me for the morning.

"Kids! Breakfast!" Leah called; making me wince from the loudness of her voice, for it was too early to be loud. "Sorry sweetheart" she apologized as she took a seat beside me. She knew I wasn't a morning person, but at least she apologized for whenever she was loud in the morning.

Soon the table was surrounded by our kids, Tyler taking a seat next to Leah as Taylor took a seat next to me and Sofia beside him. It was silent as everyone ate; even Taylor didn't make that much noise, since he wasn't that much of a morning person as well. 'Just like his father' I softly chuckled at my thoughts as we continued to eat in silence.

But it finally came to an end as Leah spoke. "So what does everyone have planned for today?" she asked having set her knife and fork down having finished her breakfast.

"Well the girls and I are going to that new coffee shop for lunch today and then we're having that sleep over, remember?" Sofia looked at me and Leah as if we forgot.

"Of course we didn't forget sweety. So whose coming?" my wife asked as she started stacking up the finished plates.

"Just the usual group and the new girl in town, her names Ashley Woods, she and her family just moved here like a week or so ago" Sofia said before taking a gulp of her juice. "Oh and the cool thing is that she has a twin brother. And the freaky thing is that she and her brother look like me and Tyler" I felt my head recoil back as an eyebrow raised as my daughter spoke. I looked over at Leah to see her wearing a similar look.

"Really?" my wife asked as she took her seat again, the stack of dishes seeming to have been forgotten.

"Yeah. Her brother, Xavier, is on the basketball team, since the football team was full and he wanted to do something with a small court" Tyler chuckled as he rested back against his seat, also taking a gulp of his juice.

"Really" Leah asked, shocked by this news, I was shocked too but I stayed quiet. "What do they look like?"

"Uh… Mum I told you, she looks like me. I mean exactly like me, skin colour, hair and body figure" Sofia stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Yeah and Xavier looks like me as well, maybe a little younger but like me, hair and skin colour, although he's not as built as me, though still built" Tyler said, smiling and chuckling at a silent joke.

I tuned out as my wife continued to ask question upon question, and I would have too, except I was too engrossed in my own throughs, one being:

'Are you home now Seth? Have you finally returned?'

xXxXxXx

Seth's Pov

"Okay so that's what you two will be doing as of this moment until further notice" I stated as I sat in one of the comfy chair that the café has with Xavier and Ashley sitting opposite me, while the rest of my workers got the place up and running.

"So you want me to wait and serve coffees?" Xavier said, pointing at himself. I nodded at his question as I took a sip of my coffee. "I can't be a waiter that's more for the female population. I mean they have the goods, shouldn't you be using them" I looked out of the corner of my eye to watch as some of the females close by glare at Xavier. I smiled, glad that my cup covered it up.

"And you want me to be out back getting the food ready and make coffees. Dad shouldn't I be a waiter, like Xavier so nicely detailed" Ashley said, giving Xavier a glare and crossed her arms not pleased by Xavier's words.

I sighed as I sat my coffee down. "Guys, I did say till further notice right" I watched as my kids nodded. "Good, now go to your stations. You know where they are. If not then ask the crew" I waved my kids away as I reclined into my chair, my coffee following and resting close to my chest. I looked up to see my kids still sitting before me. "Don't be shy, they won't bite…much" I muttered the last part softly as my kids walked out of hearing reach.

Taking another sip of my coffee, I watched as my kids got introduced to what was needed to be done before the customers started rolling in one after the other.

xXxXxXx

It was lunch time, and just like every other day at the café, it was hectic, people waiting in line to be served their drinks and food, while the tables where pack full of customers having come in for a coffee with friends, family and business related stuff.

But it was busier than usual today. Which was good for work, but not so good on our crew, even the ones that have been here since it's been open is having a little trouble keeping up with the demand of orders. Running around like mad chickens without heads, running from one table to another, taking and serving orders for the customers sitting and having a chat. But it's not as bad as it seems in the kitchen, I peeped my head in for a second and it was chaos back there, the head chef shouting demands here and there while the cooks followed the orders, I could see Ashley was starting to get stressed out from the amount of demands she was being given, but I could also see the determination burning in her eyes to get the orders right.

I felt proud in my little girl for the amount of determination she's showing, I would of love to have stayed and watch her for the rest of the day, but I was called back to help out front. Out front it wasn't so far from in the kitchen; the stress was slowly showing on the faces of my workers, even Xavier seemed to be getting stressed from the amount of orders people would order, and usually nothing gets him stressed. But I could see the stubbornness in his eyes that he wasn't going to be giving up till it was the end of his shift.

And once again I felt proud in my kids in how stubborn and determined they are into getting through this, I felt so happy that I had a smile on my lips during the rest of the lunch rush.

xXxXxXx

I sighed as the last of the lunch rush customers left the building, having gotten their coffee as well as something sweet. I sighed in delight once the last customer left and leaned against the closet bench, buggered after a hectic lunch rush like that.

I looked up as I heard the bell to the front door be pushed open, and felt myself pale as I watch as Jacob entered the café.

"Daddy, why do you need to come in as well" a girl's voice called from behind Jacob, causing Jacob to turn around so he could answer the female voice.

"What, I'm not allowed to come into a coffee shop and get a drink, maybe even something to eat?" Jacob called as he held the door for a group of girls, who walked in and took a seat at one of the tables, though one stayed back and stood before Jacob.

I felt my mouth drop as I stared at the girl standing before Jacob. The girl came to about his chest, long jet black hair and a petit form. The girl looked exactly like Ashley.

"Fine. Only if you leave as soon as you get your food and drink" the girl said firmly, clearly showing that she didn't want Jacob there. I watched in confusion and mild amusement as Jacob nodded in defeat before walking in behind the girl. It was then that I remembered that I was standing in plain view.

Panicking I did the first thing that came to mind.

I dropped.

I dropped like a sack of potatoes onto the floor and pressed myself against the bench, hiding myself from Jacob's view.

"Uh... Hello, anyone here?" Jacob's voice called from overhead. I looked left and right, hoping for someone to come and serve, but no one was around. It was then that I remember why.

'I sent them onto their lunch breaks' I smacked my forehead as hard as I could without making any sound as I cursed myself for doing such a stupid move.

"Helloooo" Jacob's voice called throughout the building, I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, praying that someone will come and serve Jacob so I can crawl away from my spot and head for the kitchen.

God must of heard my prays or something, cause just now my daughter decided to come in. "Oh hello. Are you being…?" Ashley trailed off as she looked at where I was sitting, and gave me a confused look. I rolled my hand as if telling her to continue with the customer. "Sorry. Are you being served?" she asked, looking in Jacob's direction and giving him a smile.

"Ah, no, I'm…." Jacob paused then, he was probably giving Ashley the same look I was giving that girl from earlier. "Ah… you must be-"

"Ashley!?" that same voice from before called. I winced a little at the high patch shrill in her tone. "Oh my god, what are you doing here?" that girls tone seemed to have come closer. Ashley looked at me, before I indicated for her to keep eye contact with the customers.

"I uhh work here now. My dad decided that my brother and I should start working for our money" Ashley said as she came to stand behind the counter and beside me.

"Oh my god that is so cool" the girl said.

"Hmm, he sounds like a smart man" Jacob said, his tone of voice showing that he was quite impressed.

"Yeah, he's a real smartass" my daughter grumbled. I glared up at her, just in time to see her looking down in my direction. 'Watch it missy' I mouthed up at her as she continued to chat with the customers.

"So, what can I get for you guys?" Ashley finally asked the two. Causing me to release a silent sigh, glad that they were finally moving on from talking.

"Uh, I'll have mocha and a slice of that cheesecake" Jacob ordered, and handed the money over to my daughter.

"And what would you like Sofia?" Ahh so that's what that girls name was. Finally nice to put name to voice and face.

"Oh some of the girls and I are actually here to have a coffee. Would you be able to join us?" Sofia asked, probably indicating to where the rest of the girls were sitting that her and Jacob came in with.

"Uhh…" Ashley stalled as she looked down at me, checking to see for my approval. A nice father probably would have given his daughter the chance to chat with her friends and get off early. But I wasn't like one of those fathers. So I shook my head and crossed my arms, showing her that she wasn't getting off. "Uhh, sorry I can't, but I'll be sure to stop by here and there when I can" I could hear the disappointment in my daughters voice as she answered Sofia's question.

"Ohh bummer. Anyway, are you still able to come to the get together?" Sofia asked as Ashley handed Jacob his order.

"Yeah. My dad gave me permission yesterday. Uhh what time was it again?" Ashley asked, now standing next to me again and leaning against the bench.

"It starts at six, but you can come at five, just so I can give you a grand tour of the place before everyone else shows" Sofia explained, getting a nod from my daughter.

"Okay cool. Well I have to get out back otherwise my dad would have my neck" Ashley explained, getting a glare from me as she headed for the door to the kitchen, leaving me to sit there since I didn't know if Jacob had left already or not.

"Dad, what are you still doing here, you can go now" Sofia's voice rang throughout the building.

"Okay, okay, I get it, I get it. I'll see at home" and with that Jacob's heavy footsteps travelled till he finally reached the door and was now outside and away from me.

I sighed, glad that that was over and done with, so acting as thought I was fixing something, I shot up and scared a few of the customers and dusted myself off before turning on my heel and heading for the kitchen, acting as if it was totally normal for someone to jump up from behind the counter like that.

As I reached the kitchen and opened the door, I was greeted with my kids standing before me with their arms crossed and a questioning eyebrow raised. Right now I kind of felt like I wanted to go back behind the counter.

"Want to explain what that was all about?" Ashley asked me, speaking like she was talking to a child that had just lied to a friend and their parents were watching.

I raised an eyebrow at my kids, "May I remind you that I'm the parent here, not you guys. Besides, we have customers out there that need serving, so get to it, you want money work for it" I said as I walked past them, and started on the stack of dishes that hasn't been cleaned yet. Usually kids are meant to follow through with their parent's orders. And usually kids do, except for my two. My two are stubborn, and are even more stubborn when it comes to concerns about me.

"Dad, what's been up with you? You haven't been like yourself lately…" I stopped what I was doing as I listened to my son talk to me, his voice slowly getting softer, "…and it's kind of scaring us". I turned around to look at me kids, to see Ashley wrapped in Xavier's arms, her face buried in his chest as her shoulder shook softly, while my son rubbed his hands up and down her back as he looked off to the side.

"I…." I stopped myself as I looked away, unable to come to the terms of what was up with what happened a minute or so ago, and now knowing what has been up with my kids, I didn't know what to tell them, how to tell them the truth about who their real father was. Sighing I did the best thing that I could and turned back to the dishes and continued cleaning.

"You guys better get back to work, I think we're getting customers in" I heard my daughter gasp at my words before running off out the back, and now only stood Xavier and me in the kitchen. "You have customers"

"Are you seriously going to let it go like that?" my son questioned me, ignoring my command completely.

"It's none of your sister or your concern. I'll deal with it, cause it's my problem, okay" it was silent as I continued with the dishes. "Now get back to work. If you want money, work for it" with that my son didn't say a word as he turned around and headed for the door to the front so that he could serve the customers coming in.

Silence was what was left with my in the kitchen, the only sound being that of the dishes clinking together as I washed them. I knew it wasn't right for me to have turned my back on them when all they wanted to know was what was wrong with their father. But like I told Xavier, it's my problem and I'll deal with it myself, the two don't need to pry into my business.

Stopping what I was doing, I listened to what was happening around the building, the sound of cars driving past, the chit chat of the customers sitting and enjoying a nice coffee or cake, the sound of my sons voice calling out orders having been made and the sound of crying was coming from the back.

I stopped what I was doing as I listened to the crying.

'Ashley' I thought. I felt my shoulders sag as I realised how much I must have really hurt my kids, even if only one was showing it. Forgetting the dishes and drying my hands on a dish towel, I headed for the door to the back. Pushing it open softly I saw my beautiful daughter sitting on a milk carton her face buried in her hands as her long black hair created a curtain on one side of her face.

"Ashley" I called softly, watching as her body stiffened at the sound of my voice. I didn't say anything as I watched her face the opposite of me and wipe her tears away.

"Go away" she said, her tone firm and demanding, but because of the sound of her sniffling made it hard to follow through with her command.

"Ashley" I said pushing away from the threshold and walked up to my daughter, reaching a hand out and resting it on her shoulder as I squatted down. "Ashley look at me" I said softly, and slowly, but surely, she turned her face in my direction. I smiled at her in reassurance. "I'm sorry I made you cry, but what daddy's dealing with is daddy's problem, okay?" I explained softly as I wiped the tears that were rolling down her cheeks.

"But daddy, you've been tense ever since we moved here, also you been on edge ever since Xavier and I told you about a dreams…" she trailed off as she voice started to get softer. "Xavier and I are worried for you daddy" she finally looked me in the eyes then, her beautiful black eyes that were a mirror of my own.

I smiled at my daughter, "You have nothing to worry about okay. I'm still the same ol' annoying father that loves you and Xavier dearly. And I know I've been on edge lately, and I'll get through it okay. I'm a big boy now and I have responsibilities to take care of…" I placed a finger against my daughter lips as she start to speak. "…And I'll do them in my own time okay" I told her firmly. I watched the stubbornness in her eyes slowly die out before she finally huffed in annoyance before nodding her head in agreement.

"Good, now come on. I think we have orders that need doing" I stood up and held my hand out for my daughter to grasp. After drying her cheeks she grabbed my hand and followed me into the kitchen.

And for the rest of the day, I spent the rest of my shift in the kitchen with my daughter, helping her in every way I could with making the orders that were… well ordered.

It was a good day for the rest of our shift, laughs and jokes were given to and given back from both of us and for the rest of the day neither of my kids asked me about what happened when Jacob came into the store.

And by the end of the shift a had that same smile on my lips I had since the day started, after having a reconnection with my daughter, and understanding what it was that's been bothering her, I could see that both me and her could now move on from this, not just her but maybe me too.

I can now see how much my secrets are affecting them and I need to fix that, but I knew that I couldn't do it alone and know I couldn't do it right now, not while I've just gained Ashley's trust back and I couldn't do it now since I have another problem to deal with.

It was late at night, and Ashley was over at her friend's house for that get together. All the lights were off in the house and for once it was silent in the house, but only one room was lit and had one occupant, who was sitting at the kitchen table with a jar of cookies and a glass of milk sitting before him.

"Xavier" I called as I leaned against the threshold to the kitchen. I watched as my son looked up at me for a second before turning back to his milk, dunking a cookie in before pulling it out and eating the soft side. Sighing I pushed off from my leaning post and walked over to the cupboard where the glasses are and grabbed one before heading for the fridge and filling it with milk, before joining my son at the table. He didn't say anything but did continue to reach for another cookie.

I waited till he had the cookie he wanted before reaching in for my own and dunking it in my own milk.

I remember a scene just like this, years ago with me and Xavier sitting in similar positions, except the roles reversed.

Flash Back

I was sitting at the kitchen bench, a glass of milk and a jar of cookies sitting before me, a cookie in hand and getting ready to be devoured. But just as I was about to bite into it a soft voice beside me called for my attention.

"Daddy…" I turned to my right to see a seven year old Xavier standing with his favourite blanket in one hand and the other rubbing at his closed eye, while squinting at me with the other one. I smiled at my son, my worries having been thrown out the window at the sight of my son.

"What are you doing up so late" I cooed as I reached my hands out, he walked groggily into my embrace and rested his head against my shoulder. "Want some milk and cookies" I whispered in his ear, getting a slow nod from the child in my arms.

Soon I had another glass of milk before me and Xavier sitting on my lap, as he ate the soft side of the cookie before going back and dunking the other side in. I smiled as I watched my child, running my fingers through his soft black locks.

"So are you going to answer me now" I questioned as I reached for my own cookie and dunking it into my own milk. Xavier looked back at me, seeming shock that I was still here.

"I had a weird dream" he said, as he reclined against my chest, the glass of milk being clutched tightly in his small hands.

"What was it about?" I asked as I brought the cookie jar closer to us and handed one to Xavier, who handed me his glass of milk to hold.

"I was playing with a group of kids, but not the ones from here, they had the same skin colour as me and Ashley and you too daddy, and we were playing on the beach like we did it every day. Then suddenly you came into my dream and all the kids were gone, and it was just you, me and Ashley then someone else came into my dream and were wrapping their arms around you. Then they said hello and I found it to be a man" Xavier looked up at me with curious eyes then, looking to me for advice. "Who would that man daddy" he asked curiously.

I was silent for a while, not knowing how to answer my son's question. But I knew I could just leave the question unanswered, so I gave him the best one I could think of. "Dreams are just dreams son. Sometimes they mean something, sometimes they don't. And with this one, don't let it bother you, okay" I smiled at my son before finishing off my milk.

"Now let's get you back to bed, yeah?" I said as I closed the lid to the cookie jar and with a nod from my son I stood up from our seat and held Xavier in one arm while I took the used glasses to the sink before heading for Xavier and Ashley's shared room.

"Good night" I whispered as I laid Xavier down.

"Good night…" my son yawned as he rolled to his side, "Daddy…"

I smiled at the cuteness of my son before bending down and kissing him on the head, then turning around and kissing Ashley also on the head before heading out of the room, stopping to look back at my kids before closing the door and heading for my own room.

End of Flash Back

"Didn't you say the guys were having a bon-fire tonight?" I asked as I came back to the present. Xavier didn't answer me straight away, instead just gave me a one second glance before looking back down at his glass of milk.

"Didn't feel up to it" he shrugged after a minute or so of silence between us.

I felt bad that my son didn't end up going to the bon-fire because of what happened earlier on today. "Why don't you feel up to it?" I asked reaching for another cookie from the jar.

He didn't answer me and except shrugged his shoulders. Now I really felt bad. I didn't know what I could do to help Xavier, I didn't know what I could say that wouldn't reveal my true reasons I acted the way I did in the kitchen.

"You know when we were living in the apartment and you were seven, one night I was sitting at the kitchen bench have a glass of milk with cookies and you came out and joined me. Do you remember that?" I asked, speaking as if it was normal to bring up things in the past. I looked over at Xavier to see him staring at his glass of milk intently, seeming to trying to remember the night.

"Before you came out, I had a lot on my mind. I had thoughts of worry and concern. I was worried how you guys were going to deal with just having one parent, how I was going to pay for all the bills, everything" I leaned forward and placed a hand over my sons hand. "But when you came out with your favourite blanket, dressed in you space themed pj's all my worries disappeared. Because I knew that if I had you and your sister with me, standing beside me, I can get through the worries and concerns I had. So don't worry about me, because I do enough of that, all I want you guys to do, is stand beside me and I know then that I can fight through whatever life throws at us. Okay" I smiled at my son reassuringly, while he stared at me in shock, before slowly nodding his head.

"Okay…" he said softly, "But we don't like seeing you like this" he said, staring at me in concern. I smiled at the kind gesture my son was showing.

"I know you guys are. But it's my problem okay. And I'll deal with it in my own time" I stood up then and walked around till I stood behind my son and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Like I said, all I need from you guys is to stand beside me through thick and thin, okay" slowly my son nodded back, his hand coming to rest against my crossed arms.

"Now how about we take you to that bon-fire, hey?" I said as I pulled away, beckoning my son to follow.

"Nah, it's too late to go now" he waved away, still sitting in his chair.

"Oh pssh" I waved his worries away. "C'mon, these bon-fires last forever. Now come on, go get packed and I'll drive you over" I said, walking over to my son and grabbing his arm and pulling him up out of his seat and dragging him up to his room. "Now hurry up, we have limited time before everyone gets too drunk to remember who everyone is, so chop, chop" I commanded, getting a smile from my son for my forwardness in letting him go to a bon-fire.

xXxXxXx

About half an hour later I was stopping before where the bon-fire was being held and was wishing my son a great time and telling him not to get to drunk. He waved back at me as he run up to where the party was being held. I smiled as I watched my son get embraced by a bunch of guys and a few girls. I would have stayed and enjoyed watching my son for a little bit longer, if it wasn't for a certain scent come flowing into my car.

"I'd hurry and leave if I were you" I looked to my left to see Collin sitting in my car with a serious look on his face.

"W-what are- how did- What!" I stuttered confused about how the hell Collin was able to get into my car.

"DRIVE!" he shouted, looking at me as if I was a dumbass. Quickly following his command I reversed back and pulled onto the path that took me to the bon-fire.

"Care to explain what the hell is happening" I questioned as I drove as fast as I could out of the forest and into La Push.

"That bon-fire isn't just some bon-fire, the pack's coming there to tell them of our old stories" he said, turning to look behind us. "Brady's following good. Means he was able to escape" Collin muttered as he turned to face the front, his eyes casting in every direction.

"What do you mean good? You guys need to be with the pack. What the hell is happening here, why the hell aren't you guys with the pack. Can you please what the hell is happening? I've already had a busy day, I don't need this right now" I exclaimed, my thoughts coming into a jumble that I was about to speak gibberish.

"We're helping you" Collin simply said, talking as if he was speaking about the weather.

"How the hell are you helping me? Cause if you find breaking into my house and now my car helping, we must have totally different meanings of the word helping" I stated, keeping my eyes on the road, though something did catch my eye to the right, so slowly turning my head, I was faced with a giant wolf head running alongside us. "Oh shit" I called out swerving the car a little as I almost had a heart attack at the sight of a giant wolf head running alongside my car.

"Dude watch it, you try to make us crash" Collin said as he helped to steady the driver's wheel, after I swerved it from have my little heart attack.

"Oh well sorry for almost having a heart attack at the sight of a giant wolf head running alongside the car" I exclaimed, pointing at the wolf still running beside us. "Yep, we defiantly have different means of the term help" I grumbled as I concentrated on driving.

xXxXxXx

Slowly I pulled to a stop as we finally reached my house. I sighed as I rested against the car seat, glad to be home after a drive like that.

"C'mon Seth, we have to hurry" Collin said, unbuckling his seat belt and hopping out of the car and coming to stand next to Brady, who is still in his wolf form.

"Why do we need to hurry?" I asked as I got out of the car, and started heading for the front door. "Cause I really want to do the opposite of hurry" I said as I reached the door and held my keys in my hand and was about to push the key into the lock before my hand was grabbed by Collin as he dragged me away from the front door. "Collin, what now" I whined. I was tired okay, I wanted to sleep, but Collin isn't allowing me.

Collin stopped as we were just about to reach the forest. "Okay first off, your mother told us everything. Ahah" he waved his finger as I was about to protest. "It's better she did, since she won't be able to help you like we can" Collin said indicating to him and Brady.

"And how is it that you guys are able to help me?" I questioned, raising an eyebrow and crossing my arms.

"Hello, wolves of the pack" Collin said as if it was the most obvious thing. Which is probably true, but I was tired and my brain thoughts aren't working at the moment. "Secondly, we're helping you keep in touch with your heritage. Now come on before it's too late" Collin said as he once again grabbed my wrist and started pulling me towards the forest.

"Too late for what?" I asked as we drew closer to the forest. It was happening again, just like it did a few days ago when, the moon's light shining down on me and basking me in its soft glow, the forest's night calling out to me, calling me to run through it, to familiarise myself with what used to be my playground.

"Before Jacob and the pack return to their wolf forms and start patrol, now come on" he was more aggressive this time as he pulled me towards the forest. It was then that I realised that Collin was right, if I had as good as time to phase, it would be now.

Realising that Collin and Brady are willing to help me, I had better follow through with their advice. "Let's go" I said as I started running towards the forest, my clothes coming off faster than they ever had and soon I was consumed by a warmth that quickly spread throughout my body, and soon I was running alongside Brady and Collin in wolf form.

For the second time that day, I felt happy, but this time I also felt free. The same freedom I had when I was still a part of the pack and running patrols and chasing vampires and just running around the forest with the rest of the pack or when I was by myself.

For the first time, I felt fully content with my life as I reconnected with my native heritage.

An: Okay! Now glad that this is over and done with. Well not completely over and done with, we still a bit more to go with this story. Again, I just want to tell you guys how sorry I am that I haven't updated in like three four weeks or something. But suddenly life decided it was time to give me a social life, but luckily I had two day to myself before I started to get busy again.

To tell the truth, I was a little disappointed in the lack of reviews for 'Life of Devilish Angel 2'. But I can understand that as being you not happy with me not updating after a long time, so it's cool, kind of.

Anyway, please review and let me know what you thought of this chapter, I hope it was good, I feel iffy about it, but I did revise it and went over it so yeah, hope it's up to your standards and hope to see a review from you guys soon.
