Mentally sighing I got out of Blake's SUV and we headed to the mansion. I had to attend another business dinner. But this one wasn't at a fancy restaurant it was at a freaking mansion! Jordan joined us before we entered and he looped my arm through his. Walking in a man came and shook hands with everyone but me. We all headed towards the dining room, it was beautiful! It had a crystal chandelier and marble floor, and an oak table and chairs. We all had assigned seats which made me sad because from the looks of it Blake sat not only on the other side of the table but he was farther down than I was. Jordan sat on the left by the man Richard and I sat beside him. The chair on the right was left open but Blake sat two chairs from it. I looked at him unsure but he gave me a comforting look. When the food was served the main door opened again and a girl walked in. She had gold-ish blonde hair that was curled nicely. She wore a white dress that had blue flowers on it. It looked really pretty on her. It looks like she put a lot into her image when I just wore a pare of nice black skinny jeans and navy crop top that had ruffled sleeves. I hated heels so I opted for converse. Jordan had disapproved but didn't say anything. I mean at least I didn't wear a hoodie and leggings, right? When she saw me her face brightened she gave a slight smile and a small wave. She took her seat next to Richard but kept quite. Like me she just ate and looked at her plate. In this company you were taught never to speak unless given permission you were taught to listen to every command and never question it no matter what. The punishment differs depending on if you break the rules. "Michelle your a pretty one. Come with me will you?" One of Blake's men spoke to her. She looked at Blake but he just watched as she didn't move. The man gets up and walks to her grabbing her arm and yanking her up. No one was doing anything they just watched. Many people looked at Blake for permission to interviene but he didn't give it. Michelle was trying to pull away. Fear was in her eyes it made me angry. Jordan saw the look in my eye but before he could stop me I bolted up knocking the chair down. I walk over there and when I reach them Blake had lost his amused smile and is now standing up anger showed in his eyes but I ignored it. I grab the man's arm "let go of her." I say with a low growl. My eyes cold and icy. The man scoffs, "Says who little girl?" He sneered. My grip tightens my eyes dilate and I enter his head. In his head I start making his head hurt. And I knew it affected him seeing his jaw tighten my lips started so tilt up. Before I knew it Blake was in my face his angry glare hurt me but I didn't dwell on it. "Sit down." His voice completely void of the warm and kindness it once held. When I didn't move nor respond he grabbed my arm and yanked it away from the man's and commanded that he sit down. The man did then looked at Michelle she was quivering in fear and I couldn't help feel the same but putting at aside I step in front of her so his menacing glaring wouldn't give her a heart attack. "This dinner is finished if there is anything else we forgot to discuss you know how to contact me." With that he dragged me back to the SUV. Taking me to my side he slammed the door when he closed it then did the same with his door. I stay quite and look at my hands making him think I was reflecting on what I had done but I wasn't I was proud of what I had done. He started the car then started back home. He didn't say anything the entire way back but I could tell he was still furious. He parked in his usual spot and we got out. He grabbed my wrist again his grip hurt but I was to afraid to tell him that. Walking in mom came to hug me but Blake blocked her and headed to my room. "Blake, what are you doing?" I could tell she didn't like him but never showed it until now. "Blake I would like you to let go of my daughters wrist and head to you own room please." Her voice wasn't the kind soft one she usually used this one was stern and held warning. "Stay out of this unless you want to get hurt Rachel." The first time he had spoken since we got home and it was cold and bone chilling. And he just threatened my mom! I don't know why but I started to doubt who Blake really was. Was this his true colors? Was he not kind and caring like he had shown me? All of this started to hit me in waves and I couldn't take it anymore. And something in me told me that he wasn't who he said he was or who he showed. But I would confront him about it later. But right now I would beg mentally rolling my eyes I started to let tears stream my face. I hated crying it made me feel weak and tired and made it harder to fight against what I didn't want to do. But I did it because crying and asking for forgiveness made it easier to get him to forget what I did. They were continued their argument my mom was in the middle of her sentence when she noticed me crying. "Oh baby what's wrong why are you crying?" A worried expression had replaced her agitated look. Blake spun around and looked at me some of his anger had left when he saw me was crying. "I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry!" I sobbed. He started to the stairs again. "This conversation is over Rachel." With that he led me up. When we entered my room I heard Jordan walk in and was talking to mom. Blake closed and locked the door while I sat on my bed. Turning around he walked over to me. I looked up at him and watched him not hiding because of the promise I made a month ago. Like lightning he had me under him. He held my hands above my head and lowered down to where he was just centimeters away from my face. My breath quickened and my hands started to shake. "Who gave you permission to intervene?" His voice cold but not like before. "No one" I croaked out. "THEN WHY DID YOU!" He yelled in my face and it scared me so bad that my entire body started to shake. "Because he was going to hurt her." I said mustering up all the courage I could. "I DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF HE HURT HER IT WASN'T YOUR PLACE!" His continuous yelling made me actually cry it wasn't fake anymore he scared me so bad. And that was when I knew he wasn't the man that had taken me to the dinner anymore.
Hands shaking I stared at her. My mind had gone blank. The last time I saw her was at Jordan's funeral and then Blake had locked us away not letting anyone see us. "Chloe?" She whispered in disbelief. "Michelle" I whispered but I knew it was her I was afraid that Blake was here now as well and that he had found me. When I confirmed that it was me she ran and hugged me. "Oh my Gosh I thought I'd never see you again! After the funeral you disappeared and when I asked Blake he would just shrug it off and tell me it wasn't my concern. But now seeing that you alive and well it makes me so happy!" She pulled back to take a look at me once again. I pushed her back and stepped away from her. When I did this I could see the hurt in her eyes. "Where's Blake?" I asked afraid of the answer. "He's not here. I ran away from him two months again after he killed Richard." She said now understanding why I pushed her away. "Really?" I asked doubting her. "Yes" she nodded. "I can vouch for her" Eliot said. "Why would I trust you for all I know you could be working for him." I growled out. He growled back and that made me freeze he was a werewolf. I had smelt it but I didn't know who but now I have confirmed it. They are werewolf's everyone except Michelle and her brothers. And my brothers of course. "Can we talk somewhere else in private?" I said looking at the adults. "Yes, come with me." granny said. We followed but I told the twins to wait in the kitchen. We walked into a small living room. "Do you want to sit?" Granny offered. "No, thank you but I've been sitting in the car for way too long." I stood where I was. I've decided to get the elephant out of the room. "You three are werewolves." They all looked at me with shock on their faces. Michelle started to laugh. "That! That right there is my best friend! You always knew what was going on before anyone else did or before someone got the chance to tell you!!" This little play out completely amused me. I had an eyebrow up and a smirk on my face before she stopped laughing. "How did you know?" Jim asked very surprised. I scoffed "ya'll have a different scent than humans do." Before I caught myself I said what I thought out loud and that was when I knew I had sold myself out. "Shit" I said out loud. "How do you know what we smell like?" Eliot asked. Granny stood there studying me she said nothing just stood there. "Well someone who I used to be friend with told me what you guys smell like." I said trying to cover my mistake."hmmm, okay well since you already know we best get to the other part." Granny said sitting back down. I nod and sat on the floor. "Michelle has told us about Blake and everything he did to her. She has never mentioned you but we would like you to tell us as much as you know so we can keep you safe. We also know about Michelle's ability but we need to know if you have a ability too." Granny said clasping her hands together. I looked at Michelle to see if I could tell them about my ability. It never made sense to me why Blake needed me. I mean with her ability to predict stock trade then of course he would want her I mean she made him rich. But me my is helpful but why would he need to know where different people where. Michelle nodded to me tell me they wouldn't hurt me. "I do have an ability. It's nothing like Michelle's though. How do I explain this." I thought aloud chewing on my bottom lip. "I have an idea." Michelle said standing up. I look at her waiting for her to tell me how I could explain it. "Granny, I need a picture or something that has the scent of someone you miss." Michelle said looking at granny. I knew then what she meant. At that moment granny pulled a handkerchief from her pocket. "Who's is this?" I asked. "My son's I don't know where he is. He disappeared a week ago and no one can find him." She said. I could see tears in her eyes. "I don't know why you need this but this is the only thing I have on me at the moment." I take it and sniff it in that moment everything starts to spin and I get dizzy for a bit. Within two minutes the dizziness subsided and I looked at my surroundings. I was in a dark cabin in the middle of nowhere. Then I see a man that looks to be in his thirties tied up to a chair. That must be her son right? Someone in a hood walks in. They seem familiar but I do t know where I've see them before. He bends down and looks at the man in the face. "You've been her for two weeks just tell me where the others are and I'll let you go." The man said. "You do think I'm stupid. I know if I tell you, you'll kill me and then find them and make them slaves. You know he's already looking for you and when he finds you he won't hesitate to kill you for hurting his daughter. Not to mention the other girl." With that the man spit in the hood guys face. Intentionally flipping the dude off the hooded man took a knife from his pocket. I knew what was about to happen and I wasn't going to sit and watch. Moving to the man's captor I walk in him and temporarily take over his body. Using the knife I cut him loose. "Go before I lose control." I said my voice sounded deeper. The man stared blankly. "Look I am risking a lot of energy that I need to get back to possess this guy will you please hurry up. And if you want to know more head to where your mother lives. See ya" With that he started running. And then I lost complete control. With the little energy left I came back to my body. "Michelle please explain what just happened." I asked collapsing to the floor. "Basically she can track people using scent but different from you guys. She goes the exact place of where the person is or thing doesn't matter if dead it's or alive she goes there and can tell you where they are. Then she can interfere with the people by "possessing" them but they can't see her." Michelle finished. "Thanks Michelle don't know how I woulda explained that. Man that was hard." I said laying my head back on the floor. "It's never been that hard before." Michelle said worried. "Well the things is I found granny's son and someone was about to kill him so I took over his body and let granny's son go told him to come here. Usually it isn't hard but the hooded guy kept fighting me it was almost as if he knew how to drain me." Everyone looked at me. "They're is only one person still alive other than the people in this room who knows in detail about our abilities." Michelle said worried. "And that's Blake..."
