I was so confused, and it caused fear to creep into my heart. “Are you going to kill me, like you did Keithen?” I said, while looking up at him and Halo. He turned away from me to look at Halo, and the weight I felt was released. I grabbed my chest and took a deep long breath. I was shaking and still very confused by his power. I could hear him and Halo talking. He spoke with the same pain that was in his eyes, “Halo, I can’t continue this with you. We can’t be together right now. I can’t continue to be the reason why you get hurt. What kind of love is that?”
Halo stood there for a moment, taking his words in, but not listening to a word he’d said. “Take me away with you, back to the Wind Child Pack. I can’t stay here, Julian I wanna be with you. I can’t stay here and bond with Tyson. What kind of love would that be?” He stayed calm, even though what Halo said had hurt him. He gave a tortured look and his eyes held back fire. He then replied, in the softest tone, “They took everything Halo, my pack, my pride, and my honor. My father left this for me, and I will not stop until your family is dead.”
Halo pulled away from him, looking him in the eyes like she could finally see. “Is that what you’ve wanted this whole time? You are a monster.” He grabbed her arms and looked her into her eyes. I couldn’t understand what was going on, but I knew he was talking to her. I could only hear Halo replying. “I would never want to kill them, no matter what they’ve done. Yes I’m sure, I love them, and you should forgive them for whatever they’ve done.” She seemed to be able to hear him loud and clear, but when I looked into his face his lips hadn’t moved. She continued to scream in his face, begging him to change his mind. “Tell me Julian, what is so bad? No I won’t, just tell me why I would want to kill them.” He finally spoke, “I won’t tell you, its best you stay ignorant to the facts. If they even think you know, you would be dead. Your precious family would kill you dead. Then I would have even more of a reason to kill them, but I couldn’t go on living. Not without you.”
She stepped closer to him until they were lip to lip and said, “Then take me with you and tell me what they’ve done.” Julian face showed signs of defeat; he had given in to Halo. He was so strong, but seemed weak when it came to her. “If that’s what you want, that’s what I’ll do. I don’t want you to hurt anymore. I just can’t promise you that hurt won’t come again. I will make your family tell you what they’ve done. I just need to go away for a little while. There are too many innocent people involved in your family’s lies. I will take you away with me.”
I couldn’t believe Halo, she was crazy. I watched her wrap her arms around his neck and stare into his eyes. She then walked over to me and bent down, placing her hand on the side of my face. “Tell them whatever you want; I love you no matter what you think about me. I just know I can make things right, everything’s going to be okay. I’m going to find out why everything is the way it is.” She then slowly walked away, and completely disappeared into the trees. Chapter 7 Lisa's POV
Galvin paced back and forth on the front porch as the moon light lite our faces. He was attempting to read my thoughts. I was blocking him and it was giving me a head ache. He tried everything to get into my head. We were phased and I was easy to read. Everything I thought of set him off. He would read into my mind up until the point where Halo was acting strange in the room the night before we left.
I became upset and phased into my human form, storming up to his bedroom. He was right on my heels as I closed the door. “Phase so we can talk. I really don’t like you picking through my thoughts like I’m some damn file cabinet,” I said. He took a moment to think about it, then he quickly phased. He still looked upset and curious, as if he could still read me.
“I know you helped her leave, just tell me where she is,” he demanded. I wouldn’t dare tell him that I let her walk away, or show him how I bowed before Julian. I just couldn’t bring myself to hurt Halo again. Even if it was for her own good, I couldn’t do it. So I just remained silent and let him pace until he become sick of trying.
“Galvin, I—I believe Halo is on to something big.” I said, while my tone trembled in fear. He didn’t turn around this time; he only stood there looking out of the window. I wanted so badly to tell him what happened with Julian, but I feared he would never forgive me. I continued to watch him while he stood silent, but then he said something that shocked me. While looking over his shoulder at the ground I could finally see his beautiful face. He looked sad, and in deep thought. I took a deep sallow as I watched him walked over to me and kneel down. He placed his hands around my waist as he slowly and very quietly agreed with me.
“I believe her too, I heard my mother talking to Emily this morning, they said something about a secret. Mom had some pictures and Lisa got mad and asked why she kept them. I couldn’t see the pictures, but Emily seemed to be pretty upset,” he said. My mind started to wonder, but I still didn’t want to tell him everything until I knew he was telling the truth.
So I asked him more questions. “Do you think it had something to do with Halo being different? Or maybe something to do with why she can’t phase?” I said. He took a deep breath and little frowns covered his forehead as he answered, “I have no idea, but then I heard my mother say that it was all dads fault. She also said something about other women.” I could only think about the pictures, and what they could mean. I still wasn’t sure if I could trust him though. What if this was a trick to get me to talk, or to let him into my thoughts.
My phone started to ring and I quickly looked at the caller id. I was hoping it was Halo, but it was Tyson. I quickly silenced the call and continued my conversation with Galvin. I didn’t want him asking any questions about Tyson. It was bad enough that I had given him my number in the first place.
I was caught off guard, and I had no idea he would be calling this time of the night. Galvin continued to question me about Halo, making sure to go over every detail of any answer I gave. I couldn’t concentrate though; my phone was vibrating in my pocket every 30 seconds. I’d forgotten that I told Tyson I would meet with him tonight, but I was having a major change of heart.
I knew that Tyson had left messages and text messaged me. So I carefully looked at my phone from the side of the chair. Galvin was too busy talking to look back and notice that he didn’t have my full attention. Tyson had left eleven voice messages and three texts in twenty minutes. I knew he was pissed with me, but there was no way I could just walk out now. Galvin was the type to hold on to something and blow things way out of proportion. So I made up an excuse to leave. “Galvin I have to go home and help my mom out with Dylan. He is having a fit and she needs my help to get him under control. I can’t stay tonight, but I’ll be back to figure this out in the morning,” I said, as I stood there looking into his eyes. “Okay”, he said, while leaning in to kiss me. I forced a smile and assured him that things would get better soon.
I drove to the back of Danglers Creek and got out to look for Tyson. He’d stop answering the phone, but in his last text message he told me to meet him there. It was so dark and I couldn’t see through the thick woods. I wondered where the heck he could be and why he wanted to meet here.
I tried calling him again and he picked up, “Tyson where the hell are you? I had to lie to Galvin!” He laughed a little and jokingly replied, “Doesn’t that make this better? You lying to him and sneaking out here to meet with me? Doesn’t that turn you on? It must turn you on to lie to the people that love you the most. You lied to me.” I was speechless as I listened to his tone turn dark. “Tyson we both knew what we were getting into by seeing each other this way. You don’t think it hurt me to watch you with Halo or Becky?” I said.
He went silent, not saying a word, but I knew he had started to cry. “Where are you Tyson,” I asked softly. I could hear him take a deep breath. “I’m on my way over to you now, I’m sorry Lisa, but this just isn’t easy anymore. I thought I was stronger but I’m not. We are mates, but you’re forced to be with Galvin, and this is what I’m reduced to. Meeting you in the dark? You let Mr. Roman break us apart, you fell for Galvin and put him in your heart over me,” he said.
I turned around to see him walking toward me. He was right, but what could we do about it? Mr. Roman knew we were true mates, and he still ripped us apart. I remember the day it happened, the day I felt my soul ripping into pieces. The day Mr. Roman came to visit my mother and me to tell us that he had chosen my mate. I was sick to my stomach at first, but I learned to love Galvin. In Gavin’s mind I was his mate. My true mate was Tyson; but Mr. Roman was trying to create a super pack. He was changing things and no one agreed with
