My whole world crumbled apart and began a new era with her holding me in place. Everything I was devoting my life to protect and keep safe slipped my mind in mere seconds. Nothing mattered no more, not my mother, sister, pack brothers, friends, my new love for Amanda, hatred towards my enemies, nothing. Heck I did even care for myself anymore! The only person I was supposed to care, protect, love, give my life for was her, Atilia.

That moment of pure bliss I was to think was wonderful turned completely dull gray…no not gray…utter black, darkness surrounded me on the outside and I trembled of rage. Not anger for her but rather myself. How would I prevent everyone around me to not get hurt because of me?

It was that instant that I made an utterly confusing verdict not even I was sure to promise keeping, I was going to fight the fate that held my soul mate and me together.

~Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Chapter 8~

Atilia's POV

My eyes gazed at the exterior of the tiny house. I noticed it had once been gray since the little chips of paints showed a tad bit. There was only one narrow window beside the weathered blue door, but the window box under it was filled with bright orange and yellow marigolds, giving the whole place a cheerful look.

"It's cute" I stated nonchalantly. Who would ever though such a small simple house could look so pretty? I must admit the flowers gave a welcoming aura.

"I told you I would introduce you to my fiancée but please try not to stare okay?" I nodded confused as to why who would say that but shrugged it off.

"Emily? I'm home and I brought someone that wants to meet you" he called from the porch and as we entered a beautiful young woman, with exotic good looks, shiny black hair and perfect coppery skin turned around from where she stood cooking. I muffled a gasp when I noticed three long scars ran on the right side of her face and one long scar reaching down her arm.

"Hey" she didn't seem to notice my appearance shyly standing on the door as she greeted Sam. His face beamed with utter happiness once they caught each other's sight. I gave them privacy by looking away and turned my full attention on a loose piece of thread on my shirt. Not only to give them privacy but to keep myself from staring at her scars, I wasn't raised to be rude and especially not to someone important I was about to meet.

The sound of a very loud clearing throat made me jump slightly and I flushed a light pink as four pair of amusing eyes watched me.

"Sorry I just had to interrupt your silent thread fest" two men laughed out loud from the corner of the tiny kitchen as I glared at them whilst Sam and his fiancée smiled at my expression.

"Who's this?" she asked eyeing me carefully, not in a disrespectful way but more in a curious gazing way.

"I'm Atilia and umm-" I pursed my lips and looked at Sam for help. How could I say this without causing a commotion?

"She's my half sister" Sam answered sheepishly. I smiled faintly and nodded. One of the guys whistled slowly and low meanwhile the other smirked with engrossing glinting in his eyes.

"She's what!" My gosh why am I hearing his voice I thought and turned around nervously to where the voice was heard, hoping that I was only imagining it.

"Seth? What are doing here? You're supposed to be in school. I've made it clear many times that you have to keep-" I groaned and looked down to avoid his cold glaze, not now keep your cool. One thing I can't handle is staring…at all, it will either piss me off or make me timid, and right now the gaze he was giving me was pissing me off to the edge. He was being an ass when I barely knew him and to meet him in Sam's house is just ugh.

More shuffling footsteps were heard coming our way and I couldn't help but see who was now intervening in this conversation. Avoiding Seth's glare I observed the girl that had come inside the kitchen.

This girl or more like woman was beautiful in an exotic way with perfect copper skin and eyelashes like feather dusters. Her dark black hair was down in a pixie way and immediately as she saw me her brown eyes gave away some sort of expression I couldn't recognize. The more I stared at her the more I realized that I had seen her in one of the wolf's mind when we were out in the forest.

Then the idea struck-Could all these people be… Sniffing the air I noticed how different their odor was to humans and more similar to what April and I had smelled in QTS. In fact the whole entire house smelled strongly fresh and earthy. I opened my mouth to ask but Leah I reckoned beat me at talking first.

"Figures" she scoffed looking at me with pity "Joshua Uley probably did the same as-" Sam stepped up and looked at Leah sternly but with sorrow eyes.

"Leah stay out of it and go take Seth back to school , I won't have him trailing back on his education. Also if this is the way you're going to act around us then I rather have you leave"

"Maybe I'm the one who should leave. This isn't the right time to talk" I sighed and turned around to leave until someone grabbed my arm.

"I'm sorry to say you're not going anywhere until we all have an arrangement of some sort, we have a right to know"

"Paul let her go. I'm sorry about all this Atilia" Emily smiled and Paul let his hand fall off my arm, griming as he did so.

"We're all sorry about this. Come back tomorrow though and we can talk things out…all of us" Sam tried to give me a reassuring smile but I nodded and left not glancing back at them.
