ENJOY!
"You love me?" Reid's voice was bitter. "Really? After just a week? And lying to me for this entire time?"
My throat tightened and I could feel tears sting my eyes. "Reid, please." I whispered.
"Why should I believe you?" This was almost a yell. He was angry but his eyes stayed normal. My jaw tightened. I didn't want to cry.
"Whether you believe me or not, we need to leave. They'll be sending other Hunter's here soon." My tone was cold and mater-of-fact. I stopped thinking with my emotions and started creating a plan. Step One was to get Reid and the rest of the sons as far away from Spencer Academy as possible. Hell, I needed to get them out of Ipswitch. I could see Reid was doubtful but I put on my best authoritative act I could. "Look, I know my Coven better than you do. Is there any way you can get ahold of the other Sons?" I asked.
Anger flashed into Reid's eyes. "Do you really think I'm stupid enough to bring them right to you?"
"No but I think you're smart enough to realize that we all need to get away from Spencer."
I saw defeat weigh into his shoulders. I knew what Reid was in for. Caleb would eat him alive when he found out. Not to mention Caleb, Pogue and Tyler had all been able to find women who weren't trying to kill them. "Okay," he sighed, "So what now?"
"Now we need to find a safe place to stay, somewhere out of Ipswitch." I said, watching him closely. He had moved into the same thought process that I did. He was no longer thinking of my betrayal but thinking of his family.
"My mother's sister has a small horse farm in western mass, would that work?" he asked.
"It's not an ideal distance but it will work."
"It will have to."
"Is this really necessary?" I heard Reid's voice through the blackness.
"Yes!" Caleb and I shouted it at him at the same time. I didn't have to see Caleb glare at me, I could feel it. I felt Kate place her hand on mine. I knew it was a gesture to comfort me but I ended up flinching anyway.
None of the sons wanted to leave their girlfriends in Ipswitch, especially after I explained my mother's abilities. Caleb and I had both agreed on the need for me to be blindfolded. We didn't need my mother looking through my eyes and watching where we were going. No, this was logical. Reid, Kate, and Tyler were under the impression that it was demeaning, while Pogue and Sarah were on the fence. I felt horrible, driving a wedge in the group like this. After all, I didn't belong here.
For some reason Reid had begun to forgive me. It had started with him defending me against Caleb when we told him what I was.
"She can't help what she was born into!" Reid shouted.
"Does she even know what she is?" Caleb hollered back in exasperation.
These things kept running through my mind. I mean, of course I know what I am. A Hunter. Isn't that why I was blindfolded in the back seat?
Aside from that, I could feel Reid's hand on my thigh. His thumb was making slow circles as I sat stark still, listening to the Hummer roar along what I thought was the highway. We had been traveling for what felt like forever but Reid had said it was around 2pm. We hand left the school a little after 11am so when I heard the sound of pavement suddenly turn to gravel, I sight with relief. It was about 10 minutes later when I heard Reid mumble "This is it. Time to meet my aunt."
