Shane looked at me then looked at the ground.
"She's going to be so pissed at me," He said then chuckled without humor.
"I think she'll be happy to see you," I stated honestly.
"You don't know Savannah, it took forever for her just to trust me enough so we could date, that trusts going to be gone,""So you'll gain it back,""I don't know if I can, or if she even wants me back in her life,""Well you sitting here isn't helping her at all so come on lets go to the Safe House and you can see her again."
He slowly stood up and grabbed his bag, "She's going to kill me," He said.
We started the long walk back and we talked about werewolves. According to him I wasn't supposed to be changing until 18 or 19. He said he'd already changed because the Edison Group messed with his moms genes which affected him. He told me that a mate is the one and only person a werewolf could love. Even separation from their mate for a few day could make the werewolf sink into depression.
"Then how could you leave Savannah?, Is she really your mate?" I asked at some point of his explanation.
"Yes she's really my mate, I hadn't thought that far ahead. It was just an impulse thing."
"How could you impulsively leave your mate?"
"I'd do anything to protect her, at the time I thought me leaving was the only way,"
I shook my head and gave an exasperated sigh, "You should think before you do something drastic, next time,"
"I know, and I will,"
The rest of the walk back was silent except for the sound of the wildlife around us and our footsteps. For some reason I was anxious to get back. When we reached the clearing the Safe House was in I saw Chloe sitting on the back porch waiting for us to return. She ran up to us and the grim look on her face told me Savannah probably hadn't changed. Then she did something surprising, she walked up to Shane and smacked him. Obviously it didn't hurt him because he's a werewolf but he still had hurt look on his face.
"I can't believe you'd do that to her," Chloe said, her voice was shaking and she was on the verge of crying.
"I was trying to protect her," He stated simply.
I grabbed Chloe and pulled her close to try to comfort her. She wrapped her small arms around my waist for a minute then pushed away.
"Come on, we should go see her,"We walked silently into the safe house and up the stairs. Shane looked anxious, ashamed, doubtful, and worried at the same time. When we reached Savannah's voice we knocked. Savannah's small, hurt voice traveled through the wood.
"You can come in,"
When he heard the hurt in her voice Shane burst through the door and fell to his knees next to Savannah's bed. He grabbed her hand but she pulled it away. The room looked only a little different from when I left. Chloe now had a whole new bed in the room probably to look after her and Savannah was sitting up instead of laying down. Her back was resting against the headboard her blanket bunched on the floor even though it was cold in the room. Seeing the blanket Chloe ran in the room picked up the blanket and laid it out over Savannah's small form. Chloe left the room and her and I waited outside the closed door. Having super hearing was sometimes a really good thing I could here everything going on inside the room. Shane stood and I heard the bed squeak under his added weight.
"I'm so sorry," He whispered you could here the tears in his voice.
Savannah didn't say anything. Shane sighed. "Please, I know what I did was wrong, and stupid, and stubborn but, I was trying to protect you,""I can protect myself," Savannah said. Her voice was void of any emotion, "I don't need your help."
I looked over at Chloe and shook my head to show it wasn't going well. Chloe walked to the door knocked and walked in.
"Savannah, come on, you have to eat," She said then pulled Savannah out of the room. Shane followed behind them like a hurt puppy. I followed them downstairs and into the kitchen. After we ate I heard the sound of the front door opening and a familiar smell met my nose. I walked to the front door and standing there was Simon and a person who looked like an older version of Simon. Behind them Andrew was locking up the cars then he walked into the room followed closely by Tori. Tori waved to Savannah and Chloe then continued upstairs and Andrew walked towards his study.
"Hello, I'm Kit it's nice to meet you," The man with Simon said, "I'm Simon's father,"
I shook his hand and grunted out a hello. Chloe walked up behind me and smiled, "Hello Mr. Bae it's so nice to finally meet you, this is Derek," She said then shook his hand. Kit, where did I recognize that name? The man walked by me following Chloe to where his bedroom would be. When he walked by his scent grew stronger and I was hit by a strong memory.
I was sitting in a room with four beds, there were three other boys sitting further away in the corner. The door opened and a nurse walked in smiling.
"Derek somebody's here to see you," She said and held my hand as we walked out. We walked to a room full of books and with a big table in the middle. A man was sitting in the chair next to the head of the table and the woman sat me down at the head.
"Hello, I'm Kit Bae," He said.
I nodded and told him my name like a good boy. He asked if I wanted to come with him and I said yes. I was told do meet him at 2 am in the hallway. When we parted he handed me a simple braided necklace with a wolf braided into the rope like material. I walked back to my room with the nurse and the three boys came from the corner to see the nurse. They asked if she had a treat and she said no and sorry. The boys attacked, angry that they didn't get their treat. Other nurses ran in and injected the boys with a murky liquid which made them lie still. Then one of the nurses came over to me.
"Night night little monster," She said then pricked the needle into my skin.
I shook my head to clear it and sat down at the kitchen table. I was confused, What was that all about? I thought. I fingered the necklace sitting around my neck. So it was real, it had to be or the necklace part wouldn't make sense. Savannah sat down across from me with a waffle. She ate it in silence and when she was done put her dish in the sink and sat down across from me.
"You'll figure it out soon enough," She said in a quiet voice.
