Morgan's POV

I watched out the window as Alisa's car drove away. Now I was certain that Wendy Hampton was a witch, whether she knew or not.

You see? I asked Hunter via witch messages.

Yes, but the strange thing is I've known Wendy for years. He replied.

My jaw dropped. What!?

Maybe I should come back inside.

Wendy's POV

"Hey Charlie!" I called up the stairs after getting home that night, still shaking with excitement of seeing Hunter again.

"What?" My older brother called back, his foot steps thumping on the carpet in the upstairs hall as he came to stand at the top of the stairs, staring down at me with his piercing blue eyes.

"Do you remember Hunter Niall?" I asked.

Charlie actually looked thoughtful for a moment (a rare thing indeed), then finally answer with a grin. "You mean the friend of mine that you had a huge crush on back in the homeland? Sure I remember him, he was two years older then me. Why do you ask?"

The colour drained out of my face. HE KNEW?!?! "Well, Hunter's in town, I saw him tonight."

"Bollocks!"

"It's true! He really is here."

Charlie looked stunned (again a rare occurrence.). "Well that is very interesting, I hope I will get to see him sometime." He said then turned away from me and went back up the hall to his room.

I shook my head, trying to get over the fact that my brother had known about my crush, and made my way up the stairs to my room. As soon as I opened the door, I was tackled to the ground by our over oversized German Shepard, Rusty.

"Get off, Rus!" I giggled trying to push off the dog before he crushed my bones.

Rusty barked gleefully and licked my face, then moved back to allow me to get up. I did just that and hugged him, I had missed him a lot since we had to leave him with friends back in England until we were settled.

"Hey darling." My mother stood in the doorway to my room, smiling. "I hope you aren't to angry we picked Rusty up without you, I just didn't want to interferr with your friend-making spree."

I smiled. I loved my mum, she always seemed to do and say the right thing, it was actually a bit weird. Gwen Hampton was a lawyer, she worked mostly with criminal clients and believe me she was like wonder woman. One time when I was 13, a client had found our address in the phone book and had come to our house during dinner and mum had slugged him for yelling abuse at Charlie and I. She was my hero.

"I'm not mad, thanks she much though mum." I replied and got up to hug her.

"I'm glad your happy." She chuckled and added "I saved you some apple pie." YUM!!

Morgan's POV

My brows knitted together in confusion. "If you were friends with Wendy's brother, then how come you didn't sense that they Wendy was a witch?" I asked, totally perplexed.

"Well, I was under a lot of stress during that period, love." Hunter replied, a sad look on his face and I got it. Linden. Hunter's brother.

I looked at the clock. 9:30pm. Crap. I remembered that I had a history paper due tomorrow on the battle of Hastings. I considered using a spell to help me. But Hunter would so not approve.

"We'll talk to Wendy tomorrow." I said, turning back to him. "Mary.k invited her and Alisa over after school."

Hunter nodded and stood up. "I'll meet you here." He said then bent down to kiss me.

I savoured the kiss all night while I slaved away on my paper, resisting the urge to get help from someone who had actually seen the battle.
