Shifter

Chapter 23

Once we were all in the pool and chilling, I lean against the edge and I start asking Alex all of my questions.

"So when is this 'war' going to be?"

"In about a months time."

"oh, wow, so soon."

"Yeah. To be honest, I'm kind of worried."

"Why?"

"My old pack has alot of drug dealers and what not and they are all very clever and scary when they need to be."

"Oh. What about my fathers pack?"

"They are all very clever and strong also but not as string as the people who were in my old pack."

"Should we be worried?"

"Probably."

"Thats not good."

He shakes his head no, looks down at the water and sighs. I look at him and say,

"Will you be fighting?"

"Yes but me and Grayson will have to stay close to you for the whole thing."

"oh."

I feel Grayson come over and wrap his arms around me. I spin around in his embrace and I bury my face in his chest. He pulls my chin up, kisses me and says,

"We may have to fight but we will be close to you the whole time baby."

"Ok."

"Any more questions?", Alex asks me. I nod my head yes and say,

"Is my father going to be fighting."

"Yes, he will need to be there to help the pack."

"Okay, well I have a personal question for you."

"Yeah?"

"How did you become a werewolf?"

He laughs and says,

"I was waiting for you to ask that. Well, my father was a werewolfe so naturally when I was conceived, I got the werewolf genes like you did."

"Oh, that's cool. I wish I could have met your dad."

"I wish you could have met him too. He was incredible."

I could hear the sadness in his voice as he spoke of his father. Alex's dad had gotten mugged when he went away to New York five years ago. I remember first meeting Alex and him telling me all about it. Very sad story.

I change the subject from his father and back to the fight, in a will to try and make Alex happy again, well in a way.

"How many people are in your pack?"

"Old pack and about fifteen."

"How many are in my fathers?"

"The same, well there will only be thirteen present actually fighting but still."

"oh ok."

"yep. Any more questions?"

"Nope."

"Okay. Umm, game time?"

"Sure. What do you have in mind?"

"Marco polo?"

I look towards where Grayson and Andrew were standing. They both nod yes so I turn to Alex and say,

"your Marco."

"Im always Marco."

"Suck it up."

"Fine."

As the game begins, I can't help but think about the possibilty of losing the people that I care the most about. Losing my father, Grayson or Alex would be unbearable. Let's hope that the fight doesn't turn into a big blood bath.
