After I had showed off my powers we went back into the Hale house. They invited me to have dinner with them, but I'd already eaten, so I went to watch TV with Jackson and Erica, who'd eaten before coming as well.
We watched The Big Bang Theory for an episode until I decided to ask them about the symbol on the door. Erica eyed Jackson with the utmost questioning. She seemed to be asking whether or not they could tell me.
Jackson, who was sitting on the other side of the couch, leaned forward as quietly as he could while Erica got up and sat on the coffee table in front of the couch.
"We're not totally sure," said Erica in a hushed whisper, "Derek said it was an Alpha pack, but even Derek doesn't know what that is."
An Alpha pack. That sounded threatening, and I understood why the mark felt like a warning. It was.
"So they're here then?"
Jackson nodded, "We haven't been leaving the house except for school for weeks. It's been freaking us out that they've waited so long to show themselves."
"Will they attack any members of the pack?"
"Probably, we all got marked."
Just then I got a text from my mom. I looked down at my phone. She'd sent me a picture of our door. On it was the symbol that was on the Hale house. I held out my phone for Jackson and Erica to see.
"I've been marked."
Their eyes widened. "Derek! Scott! Peter! Guys! You're gonna want to see this!," yelled Erica.
Sorry for the short chapter. I'm low on time. More to come tomorrow, I promise!
