Chapter 17

No wonder I fainted, I am surprised that I didn't try to kill Easton but then again, I was scared. He was a dangerous werewolf, not to mention an Alpha. The cops won't even find my body if something happened. Easton and his buddies may end up eating me, they are wild animals after all.

So I kept silent on the whole ride back home. I reached home by ten, that wasn't even that late. Thankfully, Easton had the presence of mind to inform Ma, otherwise there would have been loads of questions about my whereabouts. When Ma asked, I just told her that there was the birthday party of a little boy.

We sat down on the couch together before Ma began, "Hey, I just looked for venues for the wedding." Ma looked so excited and Brian smiled lovingly at her.

"Did you find a good place?" I tried to join the conversation but my voice came out tired and worn out.

She ignored the sound of my tone and continued, "Yes, I found a place but it looks really bad right now, but I am sure that after we clean it out it will look fabuolous." She showed me the picture of a mine like place surrounded by a lot of tress with a clear space in between. Even though, it looked ditry, I am sure it would look nice after cleaning just like Ma said.

"Appearances can be deceptive," I said out aloud with Easton on my mind.

"Are you alright sweety?" Ma looked worried now.

I mentally cursed myself and let out a small smile, fake one and said, " I am alright Ma, just tired.

"Alright, if you say so." I am hundred percent sure that she does not believe but I can't tell her the truth for that matter. She smiled at me, pecked me head and left for the kitchen saying something about leftovers. She had tried to coax me into dinner but I lied to her that I had enough food at the party.

Having dinner didn't seem like the bst thing for me especially after what I witnessed. I said goodnight to both of them and went to bed.

Before I left, Brain told me, "You can talk to me about anything Neveah." I just hugged him tightly burrying my face in his chest. I was tempted to tell him but decided that I can't be selfish and drag him into my problems. I let him go after some time.

"What was that for?" He questioned. Well, I am not exactly affectionaite.

"Just because I can." I told him simply.

"Off to bed," he shooed me.

"Goodnight Dad, " I blew him a kiss and them shouted, " Goodnight Ma."

I heard her goodnight when I reached upstairs.

I looked at the clock on the table near my bed and it was only eleven. I have been laying on this bed for nearly an hour. My mind wouldn't switch off. I thought about all the events related to this relevation.

Easton and his buddies good looking and unusual build.
Them all sticking together.
Melissa's bitchiness.
Their healing power.
Claire's statement of how important Peter is.

Although that doesn't explain why I had to touch Easton that day.

I looked at my phone contacts and decided to do it after thinking about it for some time.

"Hello, can you come here?"

Easton's Pov (Again)

I adressed the crowd in front of me. "Good evening everyone. I am sorry that the meeting is being conducted this late but the matter to be discussed is very important." I looked around for Rick in the crowd. "Could you please come up?" He looked scared but I just smiled at him.
