Axel had left after taking off my stitches.
“You are healing up really nice,” he commented with a smile.
“Thank you, and | already feel perfectly fine.”
It was late in the night; Axel had already informedthat Thane would be back a bit late. There had been
another attack, and many still belleved the attacks were from this pack.
| rose, putting on a robe, and headed to the balcony, enjoying the fresh air.
My mother was the only family | had left. | wish could tell her about Nick; he wasn’t exactly a villain, but my
mother had referred to him as the only ‘good thing life offered me,’ and she was wrong; if she knew the truth
about him, she wouldn't think that. | wish | could open up and tell her everything; | wish | didn’t have to lie, but
now more than ever she didn’t need to know the truth; she wanted to make a life for herself, and | was happy for
her, but a part ofwasn't ready for all these. | needed someone there to shout atwhen | was making the

many secrets | kept away from her... It wasn’t going to be easy to revive the bond we once shared.
Just then | spotted two figures a distance away; | knew who the first figure was almost immediately; that was
Bailey. There was something suspicious about her friend. They were both in black, as if to blend in with the night.
She was definitely up to something; | knew it.

Running wouldn't be a good idea, and so | hid behind a tree. After a few minutes of silence, their conversation
continued.
“I will leave now.” The other figure said, | recognize that voice.... It sounded a lot like... Beatrix. But that was

shoveddown to the ground.
“You,” she sneered.
“| guess you aren't happy to see me.
“What are you doing here?”
“I was only taking a walk."
“And you were doing that, hiding behind a tree?”
“I saw you and Beatrix; | had to know what all the secrecy was about, and isn’t Beatrix supposed to be in the
dungeons?”
She placed her leg against my back, applying pressure.
“Let's keep this a secret, shall we?”
“I always suspected you were up to something. Do you mind sharing what you were discussing with Beatrix?”
