tother as well." 

 

"Ahhh.... no. I think I'll pass." I say glancing at her and back to Thayer. What do I say. First off Elijah, second Elijah and third Tatum might show up later. 

 

"Go." Thayer says, and I glare at him. "See you friends while you here for the week. If Tatum stops, I'm here and no what going on." He says. 

 

"You sure?" I ask.  He nods. "Alright. I'll be back later.. I hug him and hes kisses the top of my head. I like it when he does that yet I don't. I like because he isn't scared to show his affection in public, yet I don't because it seems like something your dad would.  "Let's go." I sigh. Then Flora, Elijah and I head down the street towards the training center.  Flora keeps things not so awkward with all of her talking, and I'm glad to listen to her and catch up on things I missed. Apparently Chase and Chaston made things official and everyone knows. Rashell isn't happy. Sierra and Frederick broke up, something about Frederick not wanting to be tied down. Janessa and Theodore are together as well, I was right! We walk inside, and I see everyone else warming up. I go towards the bathroom, I have a cabinet in there were I hide my things. It's locked also and I'm the only one who knows where the key is. Coming out as I finish wrapping my left hand, theodore and I do our hand shake and take a minute to catch up on things. 

 

"I bet you're out of practice." He jokes as we head to the mat with the others. 

 

"More then likely." I sigh, glancing at Elijah. He is doing some paper work, and hasn't said one word to me. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. "Ahh,  race?" I offer. 

 

"Your on." He says, and the two of us branch away for the  8 minutes it takes us to run through the course. "I thought you said out of practice!" He breaths out, after his minute of catching his breath. 

 

"I thought so too." I laugh, feeling great. "You should probably go back to your girlfriend.. I think she is slightly jealous." he looks towards her and he nods. I head over to the mirror, and look at my reflection. I haven't gained any weight from being with the West family. Which is also surprising. In fact my legs look a little better. All the running to not be late to class, and learning how to take care of a horse too. Ahh Rush. I'm gonna miss him. I already do. Looking at my figure more, I see the little outline from my scar. I think about that day, and how I almost died. I haven't heard from Tracy, and I wonder what is going on there. I'm still talking to Tatum. I wonder...

 

Is she still after me too? 

 

First the queen and maybe Tracy. Great.

 

I grip the bar in front of me, not liking where this is going. I'm dead. If I stay here I'm dead. I have to leave. I'm in to much danger. I need o get back to Caswan, but there am I really safe either?  I'm not safe anywhere. I shake my head what am I thinking about. 

 

"Lyra, wanna spar?" Asia comes over, and I shake my head politely. "Are you sure... you're over here alone." She asks again.

 

"Asia she is to good for us remember?" Sierra snips, then laughs. "She probably doesn't have any skills anymore." I role my eyes. Now she must really not like me. I don't know why though. It's not like I broke up her and Frederick. 

 

"Or maybe your jealous, I'm getting married and your not." it slips out and the room goes quiet. 

 

"Say that again I dare you!" She growls walking towards me. I smirk, ready to say it again. I know I can knock her out. I wait until she is right in my face, she is a foot shorter then me!  

 

"Lyra, I need to talk to you." Tatum's voice says from behind me. I turn ready to smack him too. He always comes at times like this. 

 

"Wow, still talking to him too. No wonder you and Thayer aren't working out." She laughs.  My arm swings out, but it gets stopped. I feel heat in my hand, and the room went quiet again. I'm still glaring at Sierra but I know who grabbed me. I will always know his touch.

 

"Sierra, that is quiet enough." Elijah speaks, I rip my hand from his grip. I turn to Tatum, and he smiles embarassed. "I also think you should go." Elijah adds and I assume he is talking to Tatum.

 

"No. He can come with me." I say, and I walk towards the bathroom to put my stuff away. He follows and I start unwrapping my hands this better be good.  He explains to me, a bunch of stuff he saw and heard. Which all makes total since and totally put Rashell at fault. I listen intently, looking down at my hand. His touch is still slightly buzzing, gosh I wasn't nice to him. But if I would've looked at him or even talked to him I would've broke.  I can't do this. I thought maybe, but it's been awkward the whole time... well for me at least.  

 

"I don't think you're safe here." He ends, and I nod. Heading towards the door, he follows. "Lyra I'm serious. You shoudn't be here. You're not only putting yourself at risk but what about Thayer and his parents." I scratch my eyebrow he has a point.

 

"What about your sister?" I ask, now that we are on the topic. Might as well get all of this off my chest.

 

"You're engaged now too. She knows you wouldn't do anything." He smiles slightly. I elbow him, giggling a second.

 

"Lyra! Hey can you come later tonight?" Theodore runs over. "It would be nice to have a partner at my level for a while again." He whispers. I smile slightly, but I don't understand how they aren't at his level yet. They've been training longer then I have.

 

"Yes, I can." I say, and then I wave good bye. Tatum and I fly off so we can go include Thayer in the conversation, and get everythig sorted out. I hope this is all easier then it seems. I mean what will I have to do anyways? Will it come to killing Rashell? I wouldn't mind that. Although doing that would put Sebastien and Chaston in situation with zero parents. But if they knew what she was really like what would they think? She is still there mother and they would still love her. Landing on the deck to our appartment.. the West family and I... we go inside passing by Mr. and Mrs. West with a hello, and finding Thayer in the bedroom. 

Chapter 4

 "Well, that was something else." I sit on the bed, scratching my forhead. Tatum just left, and informed Thayer and I about everything. Apparently his peope are already getting threats. From all the shit that has happened so far, Rashell seems to be more evil then the Drarkals! Tatum explained how the whole castle is crowded wth darkness that is stronger then any drarkal. I feel what he is talking about too, this place just doesn't feel right. We need to consider another player in the game. Who else though? Tatum said there are much eviler forces out there then Drarkals, so we might be in over our heads. What exactly we're doing I don't know yet. We aren't planning an asassin sadly, I offered though. Just sit and lay low for a couple days watch everythig and everyone. I thought this was just about me and Elijah, but no Rashell has a lot more planned and a ot more wrong with her thenI originally thought. I can't leave here nnow knowing the shit I do. My family is here! They could be the next targets! I know I'm on the list, I don't know where but it's obvious I am. So what exactly do I do. Sit and do nothing. That's what Thayer and Tatum said. 

 

"Why don't we just get food and watch movies for the night." Thayer says standing up. He is trying to pretned none of this is happening. He is good at that. I'm not. I wish I was more like him. What else is there for me to do now though. Standing and going with him to our little kitchen we make popcorn, and put on White House Down. 

 

I pause the movie taking a potty break, and not wanting to miss anything with Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx I mean those to are HAWT! I use the bathroom and wash and dry my hand and I come back out and see The West's talking to Thayer. They gesture for me to come, and they explain again that Rashell is inviting us to supper. Of course she is. I'm in jeans and a sweatshirt that will do. I took off my dress since we're watching a movie. We all leave, and I lead the way to the dinning room. Thayer tells his parents to go in and we stand outside the room for a minute alone.  He squeezes my hand in a reassuring way. I smile again he is always seeing some bright side I don't see ever. We walk in the room, holding hands like we're supposed to. We get looks from his parents, they're smiling. I look at Chaston just to really look at her. I hope she is okay, she was bawling her eyes out earlier. She is  looking at me as well. Her look isn't happy though, it's mad. Oh great. I move on to Sebastien, he is looking down at his lap. Taking the second to look at him, I notice something is off. He is bigger. Buff wise. I also see the black eye that wasn't there earlier. What's he getting into now? Then I look and see my parents, there comforting Rashell. I role my eyes. I see Elijah next to her of course,  and the only other two seats open are the two next to him. Thayer puts me in the chair rdirectly beside him ad he sits to my left. Elijah on my right and Thayer and left. This will be interesting. 

 

I sit formally like I was taught. Talking lightly with Thayer. Asking about who is taking cre of the horses and stuff until the meal is served that is when I assume things will start going down. When the doors from the kitchen swing open and the food is being carried in a smell hits my nose. The smell of food obviously but there is something else though. It's faint, but I can smell it. What is it though is the question...? My plate is set in front of me and the smell is stronger then ever. It's somekind of fish thats being served, Rashell was smart. Fish smells the most when cooked. What ever that other smell is she was trying to hide it. It can't just be on my plate either, it's to strong. I lightly and soundlessy tap
