“She will never break the bond,” I said.

“She should have a choice,” Jacob said sternly. “She shouldn’t be with him just because of the bond. She should be with the one she loves.”

“She loves him,” I said.

“She does,” Jacob nodded. “But she loves me too.”

Jacob stood up and grabbed his bottle. “Are we done practicing for today?”

I nodded. “Yes.”

“Great,” he smiled and walked away.

I looked after him until he got inside the house.

What should I do? Should I tell Nick that Jacob is after her? He already knew that, but I think Jacob was going to do something now. Should I tell him? He would go crazy and kill the guy. Aria would be pissed. Jacob is right. She did love him, and she would hate Nick if he hurt him.

Jacob was a brave man if he wanted to go against a werewolf. They were extremely territorial and possessive. Sometimes Nick was jealous of me, and I was her brother. Jacob was going to get himself killed. I was sure of it.

I sighed and got up. I will try to stay away. I will interfere only if he tries to hurt Nick or Aria.

Aria’s POV

The movie was really long and boring, but it was nice to do something different. We had been training for days, and I needed a little break. I know we were in danger, but we should enjoy ourselves while we could. I was sure we will treasure these peaceful moments when the war starts.

“Oh, thank Goddess, that’s over,” Cassie sighed once the movie finished.

I guess I was not the only one who thought it was boring.

“It wasn’t that bad,” Blake said.

“Did we watch the same movie?” Cassie gasped mockingly.

We laughed and Blake rolled his eyes.

“We should go to bed,” Gabriel said and turned the TV off. “We are continuing training tomorrow.”

“Did Annie call?” Blake asked him.

“No,” he shook his head. “I am hoping we will learn something tomorrow.”

I doubt that. I was sure they would not find her. I didn’t know much about her, but I know she was not a stupid woman. If a bunch of kids could find her, so could Victor. She wouldn’t make it easy for anyone to find her. If she was even alive.

Nick took my hand in his and pulled me up. “Let’s go to bed.”

I smiled and started following him.

“Minnie?” Jake stopped us. “Could I talk to you in private, please?”

Nick stopped walking and frowned at Jake. “Why?”

“You do know what in private means, right?” Jake asked mockingly and crossed his arms over his chest.

“Anything you want to say to her, you can say in front of me,” Nick growled.

Cassie, Blake, and Gabriel stopped to look at us.

“Nick,” I called him and placed my hand on his arm. “It’s okay. Go upstairs. I will be there soon.”
