I sat at my desk in school looking at the clock, my fingers holding a pen which I tapped on the desk impatiently.

*RING!!!* I jumped up and ran out of the class, my packed up booksack on my back.

"Hey, what's the rush?" I heard Jasmine ask as she ran up behind me.

"I want to find out what those witches meant, so I'm in a hurry to get home so I can get some answers from Devon." I told her as I got into my car, Jasmine followed suite and got into the passenger seat of my car, our booksacks were thrown into the backseat.

"Why are you in such a hurry to find Essence?" Jasmine asked. "I mean your acting like a mate." I flinched at the word 'mate'.

"No, I'm just worried about her. She's in my pack, she's part of my family. To have a family member leave like that, to leave in general hurts. Especially if you don't know where they're going." I told her completely lying.

In reality I'm worried for my former mate, seeing her leave like that made my wolf howl in pain, not to mention growl at the sight of her uncaringly leaving the pack, and us with two guys. Of course, I'd never tell Jasmine that.

"Hey, can we stop here for some frozen yogurt I missed lunch." I looked at Jasmine before I pulled up at the frozen yogurt place.

"Go in or drive through?" I asked.

She looked at me for half a second. "Drive through."

"Hello welcome to The Frozen Palace may what can I get you?" The woman on the other end ask.

"What do you want?" I asked Jasmine.

"Um, A strawberry tart yogurt with a waffle cone topped with two cherries."

I looked back towards the drive through machine and recited her order. "Will that be all?"

I thought about ordering one for me, and decided that I would order one.

"Sir?"

"No, give me one chocolate flavored yogurt with a chocolate waffle cone topped with whipped cream, caramel, and two cherries."

"Will that be all?"

"Yes." I responded.

"Your total is $6.50. Please drive up to the window ahead."

I drove around the building up to the window.

"Here you are." I told the man at the window as I handed him my credit card. He swiped it and handed me my yogurt.

"Thanks." I told him as I handed the yogurts to Jasmine.

I got back onto the main road and continued my drive to the edge of town.

-At The Pack House In Shane's Room-

I walked into my room with Jasmine who shut the door.

"Yo!" Devon greeted from his position on my bed.

"Devon I need information." I could see him getting interested.

"Shoot." He responded.

"The witches, what did they mean by 'Heed the words'?" I asked.

"They meant to listen to the words that Essence said before she left,"

"She said something about moons, twelve, castles, and keys." I told him as I remembered a few parts of what she said.
