Chapter Four
The Quinault Tribe
Taramina Cullen
I clutched my empty stomach; it had been almost a month since my child had been cruelly taken from me. Shortly after the vampire had attacked me I gave birth to my still born daughter. I had named her Rayne because as she was born it had begun to rain, so now every time it rained I would think of her and what she meant to me and Eddie.
"Mom, where's my pink sweater?!" Siena screeched at me, I grimaced at her voice as I curled up in my bed wishing that I could just hold my little girl, while all the while I was neglecting my other children.
"I don't know, Siena." I called back, tears streaming down my face, then suddenly my door opened and Siena stood there folding her arms.
"You've been crying for weeks! Help me find my sweater!" Siena demanded, glaring at me as I sat up in bed.
"You've never lost a child, Siena." I looked at my daughter tearfully, wondering to myself how she had become so hateful and what I had done wrong to make her like that. Maybe I wasn't cut out to be a mother. Maybe that's why I had one hateful daughter and I had lost another. I couldn't even protect my own child.
"Cry a river, build a bridge, and GET THE FUCK OVER IT. It wasn't even a baby! It was a foetal thing." Siena snarled at me, slamming the door clearly mad at me. I felt the sobs erupt from my mouth and I buried my head into my pillow as I began to sob again.
"You bitch!" I heard Chloe yell to her sister, and then I heard a huge CRACK that rattled around the house, seeming to echo. I shivered and pulled my head from my pillow to look at my door.
"Don't you ever say that about our mother or our sister!" I heard Chloe scream again, and then she opened the door and walked into the room, looking at me, her golden eyes glazed over with tears showing me that she had also been crying.
"Momma." She whispered, "I'm so sorry for what Siena's acting like. She just doesn't know what to say. She cares; really, she does." Chloe tried to reassure me.
"I believe you." I whispered as she came to sit on the bed with me, wrapping her arms around me and I wrapped mine around her as well. We clutched each other closely as if our lives depended on it. She cried out with me, both our sobs intertwining and creating a noise that was heart wrenching to listen to.
I held onto her tightly, letting her sadness and hurt flow into me and then back out again. I let her channel her emotions into me, sobbing into my hair and chest, her tears streaking down my arms, my tears streaking down my face as I tried to reel in my own sobs.
"You have school today." My mother whispered to me, "You better go finish getting ready." She muttered and then she let go of me. I pulled away and nodded, running my fingers through my unbrushed hair. Unfortunately today was going to have to be one of those days I had to straighten it. Usually my hair fell in perfect waves, today it seemed to be predominantly frizz. I sighed and then walked out of my mom's room, wiping my arm on my shirt which was now soaked with salt-smelling tears.
Adriana Racluse
I rolled my eyes at my little sister, there were mere months between us, and she only looked a year younger than me physically and yet she acted a lot younger. She was immature and pretty self centred. She would have fitted in with the infamous Kate's gang in an instant if she was older, she was already showing bitch potential now.
"What do you think you're wearing?" I gawped at my sister, she was only in middle school and yet she was wearing the skimpiest outfit I had ever seen anyone of her age in. The skirt she was wearing was tight black leather that ended just below her ass, and the shirt she had on wasn't really a shirt. It was a crop top that was extremely low cut, showing way too much of her underdeveloped cleavage. Couple that with the thigh high stripper style boots she must have 'borrowed' from my mother and I couldn't believe how much of a slut she looked.
I thought I looked a little old today, I was dressed in a pair of waist high demi shorts that faded slightly on the butt and a pale blue tank top that showed a little of my cleavage as well, but I actually had cleavage. The top had written on it, "HELL YEAH!" and the shoes I were wearing were simple darker blue converse. "I think I'm wearing a hot outfit unlike you!" She sneered looking me up and down.
"You have to be kidding me? You look like a hoe that somebody dragged in off the street!" I exclaimed, and then Pandora began to giggle, and so did I.
We argued all of the time, usually just for the sake of arguing. Although I thought she was a bitch, and she thought I was way too uptight, we got on really well, and no matter what we disagreed on, we knew we could trust each other to be honest.
"So, what do you think I should change?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I think you should put on your padded bra to fill out that shirt and change the boots to some nice flats. At least without the hooker boots you'll just look like a kid who's trying too hard." I chuckled at her eye roll she threw me.
"Well I think you need to change your converse too, put the lighter blue ones on to match your shirt." She laughed and ducked into the closet to get my sky blue converse and her black ballet flats. She unzipped the hooker boots and pulled the dainty shoes on her feet.
I did the same, changing my converse. "Better?" I asked her.
"Better." She added, and then she pulled off her shirt and changed her bra. I laughed as she looked in the mirror and pouted in a silly way, "Why do I have to get the Racluse body while you get the amazing Chandra body?" She said, looking at her reflection.
"I'd love the Racluse body, tall and thin? I'm just short and thick." I laughed, looking at my huge ass and boobs in the outfit I was wearing.
"I'm like an inch taller than you." She rolled her eyes and then sat down, "But I am younger so I guess that counts for something." She smirked and then pulled back on her crop top.
"You should put your hair up in a messy bun with that outfit, it will make you look like your trying less." I suggested.
"And you should probably take your hair out of that dorky pony tail." She grinned and began to arrange her hair into a messy bun, I shook my head in defeat and pulled the bobble out of my shoulder length hair, I had always had it short for some reason, I just never wanted to have long hair.
I ran my fingers through it and then picked up the hair brush, smiling as I brushed my perfectly straight hair. "You're so lucky you get the Chandra hair and not the Racluse curls." Pandora laughed.
"Please, you have amazing hair. I'd love to have blonde hair like mom." I laughed, "You're basically mom with a Racluse build and body and I'm basically dad with the Chandra build and body."
"Well I wish I actually had an ass and some boobs. I'm just flat. You got curves when you were physically eleven. And I just get this." She gestured to her own slim body, I shook my head, I only wished that I could have inherited the 'Racluse' body that most of the people in the family seemed to have. My aunt Freeyah, my Uncle Benjamin, my uncle Judeyah, my grandfather Karamiz and my cousins, Nefertiti, Noah, Massiah, Mathias and Kara had inherited the Racluse body. My other two cousins, Abby and Izeya were petite and curvaceous like me, though we had inherited the traits of different mothers.
"I wish I had your slim body, you look athletic and dainty. I look like I'm gonna squash something with my ass." I chuckled at my sisters eye roll.
"Well when did you ever hear of a guy being an ironing board man?" She raised an eyebrow, again gesturing to her own flat appendages.
"Never, but you're not an ironing board. You're toned and slim, you look hot. You'll be a knockout with the guys when you're older, while I'll just squash them all with my ass." I smirked again, giving my booty a slight wiggled to make my younger sister giggle.
"I doubt you'll squash them! You're ass isn't that big… yet." She paused for effect and then added the 'yet,' implying my butt would grow even more than it had.
"Oh well. Mom hasn't squashed dad yet." I studied my reflection in the full length mirror, I was really beautiful for a werewolf, even by immortal standards I was a very beautiful young girl. I had perfect dainty features, a small nose, small lips and then huge almond shaped eyes that were the classic Racluse colour, a deep brown with flickers of other colours abundant in their depths. Couples with my sleek, dark hair I was definitely the complete opposite to my sister.
Pandora was named after the Greek Pandora as when she was born my mother thought she looked a lot like the goddess herself from paintings and drawings she had seen. Pandora was the opposite to me, taller and thinner with wavy blonde hair to her waist, a strong nose and lip profile, with large round eyes the colour of turquoise.
"Yeah but dad's a werewolf. He's like… immortal…" She trailed off laughing, and then her brow furrowed, "I never thought about this before, but mom isn't immortal, is she? Do you think she'll get turned into a vampire like Aunt Mary did? Or maybe a werewolf?" Pandora asked me, she looked a little saddened at the thought.
"I don't really know. Aunt Mary didn't really chose to be a vampire, she was just bitten." I shivered at the thought of being bitten by a vampire, or a werewolf for that matter. I wasn't a huge fan of the whole blood drinking/eating raw flesh thing that werewolves and vampires did, I usually just ate human food due to me being half witch, but sometimes I would hunt dear.
"I guess. But do you think mom would rather die or live with us forever?" She asked looking genuinely confused at the thought.
"It's blasphemy for a witch to want to be anything less that what she is born as." I recited from an old scripture I had read. I looked at my sister rather sadly at that point, and I saw her sigh.
"I might ask her. I don't want to see any of my parents die." She grimaced and then looked back in the mirror, her eyes were wide with worry at the thought of our mother ever having to die. I was positive that she wouldn't though, my father loved her too much, and even if it was against her wishes I was sure he would turn her into a werewolf anyway. And she would forgive him.
Abigail Alexandra Cullen-Racluse
I climbed into Chloe's car, she was driving me to school today, like she did most days. I didn't care for cars, I was the type of girl who preferred motorbikes and quads.
"Hey Clover." I grinned using my nickname for her, but father than turning around and greeting me, she just glanced towards my general direction and then gave me a slight smile that refused to reach her eyes. "What's Siena done now?" I growled, she was only like this when her sister had upset her.
"She's done nothing... well..." She trailed off and then tucked her hair behind her ear, "Actually she kind of provoked mom, and you know that she... well..." she patted her tummy not wanting to say the word 'miscarriage' out loud.
"Yeah, I know..." I motioned for her to continue telling me why she was sad. Chloe was my best friend and I didn't like seeing her this way.
"Well she sort of hit a nerve big time for mom, and I had to calm her down, and then we ended up having this huge sobbing fest. I don't even know why I was sobbing. It's not even me who lost the baby, and yet I feel so sad..." Chloe trailed off again, her eyes glazing over with tears as she rubbed at her nose with her cardigan sleeve.
"Ohh, Chloe. You have a right to be sad. That baby could have been your next little sister or brother. You're mourning for the life that the baby could have had." I reached over to my cousin and pulled her towards me, she was only an inch taller than me so the situation wasn't two awkward, she sniffed again but didn't cry.
"I know, I just feel silly for crying when it's mom who's really the one who's upset." She rubbed her eyes and then her nose with the back of her hand, slightly smudging her mascara and pale eye shadow. "And now I just really don't even feel like going to school today. Siena's just going to tease me and I can't deal with that-"
"Hey. We don't have to go to school you know. You've been fully grown for years and so have I, at four my mom wasn't even in school. She was off gallivanting after Aunt Mary and falling in love with my dad." I smirked at the image of my mother being a rebel, I was so much like her it was unbelievable. People would always tell us that we were like two peas in a pod.
"But where would we go?" She looked a little happier now, but also puzzled.
"So you're game?" I grinned, pulling at the edges of my leather jacket to make it appear a little longer.
"I vote we go hunting." She smiled again, the smile this time was more genuine and not filled with as much sadness or as much longing for her not to have to go to school.
"Where though? We'd have to go pretty far. I mean, if we leave now we could be out of the state by noon, and then we could go hunt some different game for a change. It might be more interesting, and we could run too, running always calms me down." I explained to her, I had never being out of Washington state, so the thought of actually running as far as I could and getting out of the state really provoked my rebellious side.
"Don't you think out of the state might be pushing it a little?" Chloe raised an eyebrow.
"Hey, my mom ran all the way to the AMAZON RAINFOREST. I think a different state is a little better than a different frickin' continent!" I exclaimed and the Chloe nodded in appreciation at my slightly idiotic reasoning.
"Fair enough, but how do you expect our parents not to murder us when they find out where we were?" She snorted.
"We tell them we're adults and if they try anything then we'll move out." I smirked.
"Good thinking, Abby, except that they're still our parents, and I don't know about my parents, but I know we'll both get a grilling off your parents, and your daddy is scary as fuck." She shivered and then muttered, "I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of Uncle Benji."
"Then don't call him Uncle Benji." I grinned, everyone knew my dad hated to be called anything other than Benjamin, only my mother could get away with pet names for him.
"Yeah, I guess." She laid her hands on the car door handle and then pushed it open, "Let's go then."
"Let's." I opened my side and then we both stepped out, giving each other the once over. My hair was fairly long as was Chloe's, I pulled two hair ties from my pocked and tossed her one, she caught it with perfect aim and proceeded to pull it into her hair, creating a slightly messy ponytail in the back of her head.
I quickly pulled my hair to one side and proceeded to braid the hair and then I tightened the hair tie around my 'Elsadeen' braid. I had come up with the name 'Elsadeen' after two of my favourite characters, Elsa from Frozen, and Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games, who both wore their hair in side braids.
Chloe then glanced at her feet and then kicked off her high heeled shoes and placed them in the trunk of her car. "You're gonna go bare foot?" I asked sceptically.
"Well yeah, I don't have no other shoes." She rolled her eyes, letting her slightly sarcastic side come out, when she did roll her eyes she reminded of Siena, but only because Siena was the queen of Sassiness.
"I have my gym shoes is you want to borrow them?" I asked her, pulling my bag out of the trunk and pulling out my gym shoes in offering. They were nice, I had only worn them twice before. They were black and purple with grey laces.
"Yeah, that would be great!" she grinned and she put the gym shoes on her feet, looking around to make sure we hadn't been caught out by our parents yet. I was pretty sure that they couldn't hear us from here; we were pretty far away from any of their houses.
"Shit. Grandpa Edward might hear our thoughts!" Chloe yelled suddenly, very loudly.
"Not unless they hear your voice first!" I said frantically, giving her a 'shh' sign with my hand and lips.
"Shit, sorry." She muttered quieter this time. "We better go... like now." She said, and I agreed with her, I gave her a sharp nod, and then we were off, running in the direction we knew as South.
We kept running, I had never been this far south before, but after only a short space of time the terrain was unfamiliar and beautiful in all of its glory. The greenery was just like it was in Forks, La Push and Strawberry Bay, but everything was tainted by an unfamiliar smell.
La Push and Strawberry Bay usually smelled like moss and trees, mixed with the complex scents of animals and the lingering odour of various members of my extended family. This smelled unfamiliar, but in a familiar way.
I was around ninety percent sure that some form of supernatural had been here, though the smell was unfamiliar so I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but there was one certainty, and that was that whatever had been here was not merely a human or an animal.
"Chloe, we need to turn back." I whispered to her. She glanced at me, worry present on her face suddenly.
"Why, Abby. What's wrong?" She glanced around quickly and then a rustling came from my left side. I felt the instant need to use one of my powers to flee, either to turn myself invisible, or possibly my most remarkable power, to teleport, but I had only managed short distances with that, and I couldn't make others invisible or teleport them yet. Instead I crouched besides Chloe who was also now stood in a defensive position.
"What is it?!" Chloe yelled at me, I glanced around and saw a small flash of sand coloured fur that was gone in a small fraction of a second.
"I don't know. Chloe, you need to run." I hissed towards her, but then her eyes widened.
"Are you fucking serious?! I'm not leaving you here!" She growled, and then she shut her eyes, I could see that she was trying to get a fix on where the thing was. Her power was pinpoint tracking, I kept my eyes at the spot I had seen the golden coloured fur.
"Come on Chloe! Focus!" I told her, demanding that she try and find the creature that was so obviously stalking us faster.
"There's more than one, Abby. There's more coming. They're on their way right now." Her eyes widened suddenly, terror was evident in them. They were not the familiar golden colour I knew either, but they were now a dark, glazed over black.
"Come on you cowards! Come out and fight like men!" I screamed at them, and then I heard the most vicious snarl I had ever heard in my life. It wasn't a vampire snarl, it was so much more animalistic than that.
All of a sudden a huge golden animal leaped out of the bushed and bounded towards me, Chloe dived out of the way and I quickly teleported to behind the huge animal. I was surprised at what the animal was. It was a huge lion. And by huge I meant the same size as a horse, not quite as large as the Quileute shape shifting wolves, but close enough that I knew that this animal was definitely a supernatural creature and must have been some other kind of shape shifter.
The gigantic lion flipped around and pounced again as several more of their footsteps began to echo around the forest, more of them were coming.
I quickly turned to Chloe who was holding her own against the other lion. She was snarling menacingly, I was actually proud of her. I tried to clear my mind and focus on my final gift, the power to imitate others powers. It was similar to both my mother and fathers powers, yet when I collected the gifts or imitated them, I could only use the gift to a lesser extent than the person I was modelling it off. I tried to focus on my grandfather Edward's ability to read minds.
I looked straight into the eyes of the beast and I began to hear slight murmurs. Hurry! These vampires are strong! The man thought, I yelped a little at the thought and then I heard a response... in his mind.
We're coming as quick as we can! Just stand your ground! An almost dominant voice yelled in this golden lions mind. I realised that this must have been similar to the Quileute 'pack mind,' except this was more of a pride mind.
These sort of creatures shouldn't have even belonged here, they belonged out in the savannahs of Africa, not in the forests of Washington! "We're not vampires! We won't kill your people!" I blurted, and suddenly Chloe gasped.
Huh? Of course they're vampires! The lion blurted in his mind, but his advancing attacks halted, and I lowered my stance a little.
"I can read your mind. Look at my eyes, do I look like a regular vampire?!" I exclaimed, and then I motioned to Chloe, "We're both half vampires! I'm half werewolf! She's half human!" I yelled at the lion who now looked very confused.
How is that even possible? The other lion, a slightly larger one thought to me.
"I was born of the witchblood, or more accurately my parents were. My father and mother are both children of werewolves and vampires. And this is my cousin, her parents are a dhampire and a children of a vampire." I explained, lowering my stance even more. I could almost feel the tension flooding off of the lions now.
"Please, believe us. We won't hurt you, we don't even hunt humans. We have humans in our family. Our family is connected to another pack.. uhh... tribe... like yours. Though they're wolves. We didn't even know of the existence of another tribe like theirs!" Chloe exclaimed towards the lions.
There's another tribe like ours? The lion thought towards Chloe, interested suddenly in the Quileute tribe.
"He's asking about the Quileutes." I muttered to Chloe.
"The Quileutes are shapeshifters like you guys. We live in harmony with them and lots of other supernaturals because we don't feel the need to kill humans. In fact, we don't even kill animals me and my cousin here." Chloe smiled at me, "I've never took the life of a single thing."
"Me neither." I agreed, and then I looked to the left of the golden lion to see the most amazing creature I had ever seen. The lion's fur was a creamy white, his eyes were dark brown and he was much larger than the other lions who followed him, his main reminded me of the main of Simba from the lion king. Chloe was gawping more than me.
What has happened? The white lion who was so obviously the Alpha, or I guess King in this case, that I felt the instant need to listen to him. It wasn't that he looked so much like a leader, but it was the power and confidence that the lion excreted, he reminded me a lot of my father, grandfather Karamiz, Uncle Jacob and my great-grandpa Carlisle, all amazing leaders in their own right.
These girls claim to not be a threat. One of the lions said, and then the white lions eyes scanned over me and Chloe, and all hell broke loose.
Chloe Renesmee Cullen
"The Quileutes are shapeshifters like you guys. We live in harmony with them and lots of other supernaturals because we don't feel the need to kill humans." I grinned and then continued, trying to make the lions comfortable, "Infact, we don't even kill animals me and my cousin here. I've never took the life of a single thing." I explained.
"Me neither." Abby agreed, and then as she spoke, I felt my tracking and sensing skill go into over drive, the creature I was sensing wasn't just a creature, this creature seemed to have a powerful aura that was exuding an immense, thunderous amount of authority an power. It was like nothing I had ever felt before. The aura of the creature was extensive and hugely intimidating, but as he stepped from the forest, something within that aura changed.
He wasn't just a gargantuan lion, he was the most handsome and mystical creature I had ever laid eyes on. His coat was a majestic creamy white that was so light it was almost silver, his main was thick and long and slightly windswept, and his sheer size sent a wave of terror up my spine, but not just terror... there was a feeling of-
The creatures eyes met mine... no... not creature. He was a man. I sucked in a breath as my soul seemed to gravitate towards him in that single second, I wasn't just tied to the earth... no. I was his. He was mind. I belonged to him. I felt everything within me collapse, suddenly my love for my family didn't matter. My love for my home, my love for my life, my love for everything had been squashed in a single second, and here, right in front of me now was my single reason for living.
"Chloe?" Abby asked, her face looking a little worried. "No way. You guys imprint too?!" She exclaimed to the lions. "You call the process what?" She asked the lion as the alpha lion still looked into my eyes, unmoving, unflinching, his gave stayed on me.
"Linking? And the person is called the other's Kindred?" Abby looked a little shocked, but she kept her eyes on me and the man. "Ok," She muttered, "Uh.. Chloe. We need to leave. Like now."
"What?" I suddenly asked, finally pulling my gaze away from the huge lion who still hadn't moved.
"Abby, that guy linked with you. Vampires are their mortal enemies. We need to go now." Abby said, reaching out to grab my arm. All of the lions were snarling as Abby said that the lions King had imprinted, or linked with me.
"No- Wait... we can't just..." I glanced at the lion again, his face didn't look shocked or angry, he just looked neutral, but I could feel in our connection that his heart was heavy and he was also angry... not at me but himself.
"Come on!" Abby grabbed my arm and tugged in a general northern direction.
"Abby! I can't leave!" I yelled at her, "I need to at least speak to him first!" I screamed, but the lions kept growling at us both.
"Do you want to be ripped to shreds?! Because at the moment they're all considering it!" Abby yelled at me, but I had the sudden feeling she wasn't telling me the truth. But the lions all did look angry.
"Fine. I'll be back." I whispered to her, and then we both bolted away, getting a quick escape from the huge lions and their mystical Alpha who had appeared to imprinted on me.
Benjamin Racluse
"What the hell do you mean the girls car is left on the side of the road?!" I screamed down the phone at Eddie, my daughter had run away with her cousin. This wasn't exactly unlike her, but it was definitely unlike Chloe.
"Benjamin, calm down. She'll be back soon. Just wait for her." Madison rolled her eyes at me and continued, "At her age I was running a bit of a rebel too. Remember?" She raised her eye brows, I remembered how we met and I sighed heavily.
"She's my baby girl though, Madison. I can't lose her yet. What if she's going to meet a boy?" I asked her, Madison then chuckled.
"If she is meeting a boy then let her. She has to grow up, Benjamin. Izzy, Tee, Noah, Mass and Matt already have so much more freedom than her and they're all now physically the same age. We can't keep holding her back." Madison laid her hand on my arm and smiled, I loved it when she did that. She was so tiny.
"I can't believe that she has skipped school and run off. Her last crazy stunt was bad enough!" I growled slightly, the words coming out angered.
"Benjamin, her last 'crazy stunt' was years ago and she was physically twelve." Maddie rolled her eyes and giggled a little at my expression.
"I still can't believe that she broke into the animal testing place and stole a dog after we said she couldn't have a pet." I grumbled.
"After you said she couldn't have a pet you mean." She smirked and then placed her hand on my chest, looking at my lips indicating for me to kiss her.
Just as I bent down to reach her lips, the door opened and in walked Abby with Chloe, followed quickly by Eddie.
"Where the hell have you been?!" I yelled at my daughter, "How dare you run away!"
"I didn't run away! I was going hunting with Chloe!" Abby yelled back, her eyes narrowing to dangerous slits as she challenged me.
"Hunting would be fine, if you planned to even go in this state!" Eddie yelled at both of the girls, I heard Madison sigh slightly.
"Out of the state?! YOU WERE GOING OUT OF THE STATE?!" I screamed, "YOU ARE SO GROUNDED! NO TELEVISION FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!"
"I don't even watch TV." Abby growled at me, which was true.
"NO READING FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE THEN!" I snarled at my daughter, she looked at Madison who now looked cross at me.
"Benjamin! I told you not to over react!" Madison yelled at me.
"Who's side are you on?! Our kids went out of the state!" Eddie yelled at Madison, to which she turned and glared at him.
"And what the hell were we doing at their ages?! You had a kid by the time you were their ages and you were married and had been in two wars!" Madison yelled at her brother.
"Exactly!" Abby exclaimed, "We deserve freedom!"
"Yeah. We do. And that's why I've decided I'm going out of state tomorrow as well." Chloe narrowed her eyes at her father, and I growled at my daughter for encouraging her.
"No you're not." Abby said suddenly, her eyes telling Chloe to back down.
"Abby, I can't stay away from-" Chloe looked a little alarmed and then she glanced at Eddie. "Never mind."
"Stay away from what?" Eddie asked, his eyes narrowed, and then I felt his power expand rapidly, his shield and mind reading covered the whole lot of us. "A boy?! Oh no! You are not going to meet a man!" Eddie growled at his daughter.
"You've been sneaking away to see boys?!" I snarled, "YOU'RE GROUNDED TO YOUR ROOM FOREVER!" I yelled at Abby.
Madison then elbowed me in the stomach and said, "Sweetie, if you want a boyfriend, you can have a boyfriend. Just let us know next time you go visit him."
"I don't have a boyfriend! It's Chloe the stupid lion imprinted on!" Abby yelled in surprise, and then she realised she had slipped up.
"YOU WERE IMPRINTED ON? WHICH PACK MEMBER AM I FUCKING CASTRATING?!" Eddie yelled at Chloe.
"She said lion." Maddie looked shocked, and then she realised what her daughter meant, "Did you find more shapeshifters?" Madison asked with surprise evident in her voice.
"Yeah, we did. We were near the Quinault Reservation. They were huge lions, mom. It was cool, but then the alpha sort of imprinted on Chloe, but they called it a link, and then they made us run away." Abby explained.
"I'm going straight down to the Quinault reservation and I'm going to rip that guys head off and mount it above my fire place!" Eddie yelled, seething. I had to admit, I would be too.
"I suggest you go to your room." I growled to Abby.
"No!" She roared at me defiantly.
"Just go for now, Abs. I'll talk to him." Madison glared up at me, but Abby nodded and went upstairs.
"You, home. Now." Eddie snarled to his daughter, and Chloe sighed heavily and followed her father out of the door.
