I took a small part of Chapter 93 and put it in this Chapter, just to not have the chapters have more words than the other.
Location: Pack House
"That's the end of the tour, did you enjoy it?"
"I did actually. Wait, what's that down here." I point towards the hall on the left side of the house.
"Oh, it's just meeting rooms and my father's office."
"Is this her Alexander?" I turn around to see a middle-aged woman walking over to us. Her dirty blonde hair is tied up in a ponytail as her glasses sit on her head.
"Yeah, mom this is Quinn." She pulls me in tightly for a hug, she smells of lavender and orange.
"I've been waiting for so long to meet you." Her hug starts to get a little tight, Alexander can see the struggle on my face.
"Mom, your kind of smothering her." She let's go of me instantly.
"Sorry honey I forget I have werewolf strength."
"It's alright, it's nice to finally meet you. Alexander tells me a lot of you."
She smiles at him and pinches his cheeks.
"Mom stops!" He wines out, this is so cute.
"He loves it trust me. Any way's what are y-." In an instant she stops talking and her eyes roll back. They move around erratically; I back up against the couch.
"What's- what's wrong Alexander?"
"It's ok Quinn, she's talking through the channel."
" The Channel?"
"All the wolves here are on the same line. There's the warrior channel, mate channel, and the higher-ranking channel. She's on the last one." Suddenly she stops and fear overcomes her.
"Alex, we have to go. Someone was found lurking on our boarder." All of a sudden, a bunch of wolves come around the corner running outside to the backyard. From what I can tell it's pretty serious.
"What's going on?" I ask Alexander reaching for his arm, but he moves away walking with the crowd.
"Alexander!"
"Alexander leave her here; she could be in danger. It's nice to meet you Quinneth, I'll see you later." His mother joins the crowd.
"Quinn baby you got to stay here Ok."
"Bu-."
"Don't argue with me, this is your life were debating about. Stay here." He says in a demanding tone. I do as he says and stay in the house. He places a tender kiss on cheek and walks away with the others.
While their all outside talking, I just look at them. His mother said that someone was lurking on their boarder, who are they talking about? Is it one person, or two? Suddenly, I see two big strong men dragging a person. The persons hair covers it's head, something is familiar about them.
"Lift it's head up." Alexander's mother says loudly. As they lift her head up my breath leaves my throat. I couldn't believe who I was seeing, this is not true.
"Sasha." I say loudly. Everyone turns around and looks at me.
“Sasha.” I say a little bit quitter. What is she doing here, this isn’t making any sense? There was something weird about her when she came into the shop a few weeks ago, but I shrugged it off. The world is filled with weird people you just ignore it and go along with your day. Also, what about the visions? When we touched hands, I got the three visions, did she see them too? She has to have the answers that I've been looking for, I need to talk to her.
“Hello Quinneth, nice to see you again.” A smug look plays on her face as her black curls hang low.
“You! Don’t talk.” Alexander’s mother voice rings throughout the woods. When we first talked, she was quiet and nice, now she’s all tough and scary looking. I’ve always had a weakness for powerful women, we need to talk more.
“Yes, Alpha!” Sasha says mocking her.
“How do you know each other?” Alexander asks me, everyone turns around waiting to hear the story.
“Yeah, Quinneth tell them how we know each other.” A sly smiles forms on her face.
“She...came into my work a few weeks ago for a painting. Then we-.” I instantly pause, trying not give away too much information. I just got to know these people I don’t want to give a reason to investigate me.
“Then we what?” Mr. Germani says trying to further the conversation.
“We just uh- talked about why she moved into town and stuff.” Good save.
“Mhm, are you sure that’s it.” His father's eyes zoomed in on me, he could tell I was leaving something out. His eyes may scare the shit out of me, but they won’t make me cave.
“It is.”
“Ok men, take her down to the dungeon. Don’t say anything to her.”
“Yes sir.” Both the men say as they drag her across the ground. As she passes me by, I see a red dart in her shoulder and back. Did they drug her.
Now that I think about it, her words did come out all wonky. Alexander walks over to me as his hands try to calm me down, I didn’t realize I was shaking,
“You, ok?” Worry decorates in his eyes.
“I’m uh- I'll be ok. It’s just a shock.”
“We’ve been trying to take her down for a couple months now. She just happened to slip up and we were able to capture her.” A proud look forms on his face.
“What were both darts in her back and shoulder?”
“It was a drug to calm her down.”
“She’s a wolf isn't she as strong as you?” I don’t understand, she may be a bad person from what they're making it look like. He’s an Alpha isn’t he the strongest of the strong.
“Sasha isn’t any kind of red wolf, she’s a Red Wolf.”
“A what?”
“Red wolf has special abilities such as running super-fast, faster than an Alpha. Also, strong hearing and they can see people’s visions.” My eyes widen when he mentioned the visions. So, she says what I saw when our hands touched. If she did then why not say anything to me, or come back and explain? This is all confusing and a lot, this is not how I thought this day would go.
“Let’s bring you inside, come on.” He pulls me close to him as we walk inside the pack house. Alexander’s parents and some other adults all stand around whispering to each other, most likely about Sasha.
“I thought you said there wasn’t a dungeon.” I clutch onto his side.
“It isn’t one. My father just says that to make it scary.” It did sound scary when he said it.
A couple people end of walking away, while Alexander’s mother and father stay.
“Were so sorry that this happened when you first showed up.” Mrs. Germani says.
“It’s ok- you can't control these things. It’s not every day you capture a person, right?” I say awkwardly.
“Right.” She laughs. “Well, if you would like to stay, we would love to have you.” She gives me a warm smile.
“She can’t stay. I should be getting her home.” Alexander says patting me on the back. I look up, giving him a weird look.
“I don’t have t-.”
“YES, you do Quinn. Her grandfather is strict about her curfew.”
“That’s a bummer. I hope you had a good day, before what happened happened of course.”
“I did, this is a really cool place. I can’t wait to come back.” I say enthused. This place is humungous, I would love to explore more. Maybe even get some more ice cream, most definitely getting some more ice cream.
“See you later Ms. Worthingshire.” Mr. Germani says to me, the he proceeds down the hall. Once we are alone, I give Alexander a few pieces of words.
“What the hell was that?” My hand rests firmly on my hip.
“What was what?”
“The whole ‘quinneth-can’t-stay-she-has-curfew'. It makes me sound like a kid.”
“Your kind of a kid Quinn.” I gasp at his comment.
“Hey! I’m 17 years-old. Grandpa said I was a woman.” I said proudly.
“That you are.” A smirk comes on his face, while gawking at my body. I smack his shoulder.
“Stop checking me out you perv.”
