“She is part of the pack there; you know how they are with females.” Fang replies

“Is she also running away?” I ask remembering Fang’s woman when she first arrived and all the problems we had with her pack and her brother wanting to take her back. The last thing I feel like is babysitting some brat from another pack.

“No, there are no problems with this one.” Fang replies just as the waiter brings our drinks. His hand shaking as he sets my cup before me before turning to leave.

“What did you do to the poor guy, I could hear his knees rattling.” Fang asks as he looks over his shoulder at the retreating waiter.

“Nothing!” Frost grunts at my reply as he turns his head to continue his scrutiny of the outside area.

“We have a tail,” Frost says in a quiet disinterested voice.

“Who?” Fang asks not moving from where he’s sitting, there is no reason to ask if Frost is sure or how he knows.

“Could be cops,” he says shrugging.

“Motherfuckers know it’s not us, why the fuck do they continue following every move we make.” I growl in anger just as the waiter returns with our burgers. One of the plates starts to slip out of his shaking hands which if not for Fangs fast movements would have hand the plate falls to the floor.

“Careful,” Fang warns as he places the plate before himself, the waiter hurriedly places the rest of the food down before moving away.

“Should we go and say hi when we leave?” Fang quips as he picks up his burger. Looking out the window I see a car parked on the far side of the road on the outside of the service station. I would like nothing more than to walk up to the fucking bastards and drive a fist into their faces. A few months ago, we found out that one of the women in our club was helping the serial killer, but before we could find out who the serial killer is she committed suicide.

The whole situation has become volatile, as everyone is on the alert as no one knows when the next killing will be. The club has been directly affected as one of our women was helping the fucking serial killer and one of our ol’ladies sister was killed by the fucker. The cops have been on our tails thinking that we are involved, but we would like nothing more than to find who the fucker is.

“No,” Frost mutters, “let them think we don’t know they are around.” I grunt in agreement and see Fang shrug as he takes another bite of his burger. I used to love hanging out with the others, but ever since being captured that I just want to be alone, be in solitude as everything around me ignites my rage. I just want to jump up and destroy everything around me. Every minute that passes I find it harder and harder to hold back my wolf, to hold back the blinding fury that wants to overtake me.

I wish there was a quick remedy of calming my mind, calming my soul. I just want to feel at one once again with my wolf, but ever since they drugged me that I feel torn apart, feel divided between my beast and myself. I know I’m volatile, I know that I’m dangerous to be with, but no matter how much I try, it just feels like it’s getting worse instead of better.

I am in desperate need of a miracle.

DAWN 2

I look at the clock for what must be the hundredth time, it has only been three minutes since the last time I looked, but it feels like an hour. “Dawn will you please sit down, you are starting to make me dizzy.” I look over at Dusk and sigh. Dusk got all the patience when we were born, she can sit still for hours no matter what is going on around us.

“What if they are not coming anymore?” I ask as I look out the window.

“They would have let you know; they are just late.” Dusk says as she looks down at the book she has been reading. Looking over her petite figure and delicate hands so much like mine I smile. We are so similar in every way except for our hair. Dusk has beautiful auburn-coloured locks, while I have wild red curls that bounce all over. Most people call me red, but I don’t mind as I like my hair, it is different from anyone else in our pack.

“Are you sure you will be okay while I’m away?” I ask, knowing that I have asked Dusk a couple of times before, but we have never been away from each other for any amount of time. Being twins has its perks and downfalls, the perks is that we are closer than any two people could be, we know each other better than anyone could know another. The downfalls are that we know each other better than anyone could know another, that isn’t always good when you twenty-three.

When Mystique asked if I would like to come and visit for a while, I jumped at the opportunity. I have never been allowed to leave the pack; King has never allowed me to stay away from home for any amount of time. I know it will still be a problem when Fang arrives to pick me up as dad is biting at the bit to give Fang a piece of his mind since everything happened, but as I told dad and mom, I am now old enough to be able to go where I want when I want it without them controlling every step I take.

I know that I’m a handful, I know that they get exasperated with me and that they know I will do something crazy if they don’t let me have something I really want, that is why they gave in and are letting me go. When dad first said no, I threatened to run away and go by myself. From previous actions of mine, they know that I would most probably do it too.

I know that I’m unpredictable, that I’m hot headed and most of the times do things without thinking, but I can’t help it. I do regret it afterwards, but then it’s too late. I sigh when I remember when I burnt our neighbours rowing boat when they refused to let Dusk go out with their daughter. Dad was not happy then, and made sure I regretted my actions, he had to pay for the destroyed boat but made sure that I worked for every penny that he had to pay. I only finished paying it off last month and then mom told me that I was invited to visit Mystique. As I never went anywhere and have always dreamed of leaving here, I immediately jumped at the opportunity.

I know that mom immediately regrated it the minute she told me, but it was too late then. “I think it will be good for you Dawn, you have been restless for a long time now.”

“Be good while I’m away I don’t want you to get into trouble or anything.” I tease, which makes Dusk smile and wink at me.

“Sure, I’ll try really hard.” She quips which has me return the smile. We always joke about me being in trouble and her always being the good child. “I think he is here.” Dusk suddenly says which has my attention turning to the sound of a motorcycle approaching. My eyes widen and my heart starts to race as I think of finally being able to go on a motorcycle. Would Fang really come and pick me up on his Harley?

Turning towards the window I look out, waiting for him to turn into our driveway. I feel Dusk come to stand behind me, her hand on my lower back as she too looks out. I frown when a SUV turns into the drive, my heart dipping in disappointment when I see the vehicle. I was excited to be going on a bike, but rather a vehicle then not leaving at all. Behind the SUV a Harley turns into the drive and comes to a stop next to the vehicle.

“Who’s that?” Dusk asks as the man leans forward and cuts off the engine bringing the bike to silence. I see Fang stepping out of the SUV making his way towards the man on the bike.

“I don’t know, but he’s hot.” I say feeling my stomach knot in excitement when I look at the man’s tense body as he looks around. His jaw is square, a stubble covering it, his hair is a light brown glistening in the sun, I can’t see his eyes with his sunglasses on, but I can see that he is a beautiful, tanned honey colour.

Both men suddenly turn their heads towards the door, and I know that dad must have walked out to greet them. “I better hurry up before dad ruins everything and they leave without me.” I mutter as I turn hurrying out of the room and down the stairs towards the entrance door where my bag is sitting.
