Shannon froze, her tears forgotten as Morgan finished screaming. He turned back to me. “I’m sorry.” He turned back to Shannon. “Take Ainsley’s old car or don’t, but I’m done with this bullshit Shannon. You are a fucking adult. Act like it.” Then he turned on his heels and left, back down the stairs.
Shannon was frozen to her spot before she turned back to me and my mom. “This is your fault.” She screamed and then ran to her room, slamming the door.
“Well…” My mom pointed down the stairs. “I’m going to-
“Come in.” I pulled her into my room and closed the door.
“Amy, I have to go.” She sighed, but then stopped when she looked over at Toya and Lynn. “How is she doing?” She walked closer.
“Not great.” I walked over to the bed. “They poisoned her with wolfsbane.” She gasped. “I didn’t know and when I cut her-”
“Why the hell did you cut her?” My mom ran over to her and looked. She saw the bloodstain on my carpet. “Amy!” She ran to the washroom and screamed when she saw the towel in the tub. She stormed back. “What the hell were you thinking?”
1 palmed my face. “I obviously didn’t know. But I needed her blood. Like I need yours.”
She turned to me. “Why?”
“I need to add you to a spell before I can show you.” She narrowed her eyes at me before she nodded and held out her wrist. I went into the bathroom and rinse out the drying blood from Lynn, and came back. “This shouldn’t hurt long.” I shifted my claw, but paused right before I cut her. “You don’t have wolfsbane in your system, do you?” She leveled me with a look, but I just shrugged. “I have to ask. I don’t have enough power to heal a second person today.”
My mom rolled her eyes. “I’m wolfsbane free. Promise.” I nod and slice her wrist, collecting the blood as it flowed. Then slowly I watched the slice heal back up. She looked at the dish in my hand. “Is that enough?”
“Yeah.” I turned to my closet. “I’ll be right back.” She looked confused as I shut the door behind me.
“Where is she going?” I heard her ask Toya before I stepped up and opened the two doors to the cabin. I walked outside, adding my mother to the shield, and then came back. I left the doors open this time and walked back into my room. “What the hell is going on, Amy?”
I walked to the bed and knelt next to Lynn. “Are you ready?”
She cracked her eyes, more awake than I thought she was. “I’ll be safe?” I nodded. “He won’t ever touch me again?”
“I swear it. Derek will never get his hands on you again.” I swore, but then I winced. “Well, he won’t touch you until you want him to.”
Lynn widened her eyes. “I’ll never want him to touch me again.”
“Ámy.” Toya and my mother chastised me, but I held up my hands.
“I misspoke. Derek will never get to touch you ever again, and the only time you will have to see him again is when you are ready to kill him.”
I watched the fire ignite in her eyes. “Truly?” I nodded again. She pushed back the covers. “Then I’m ready.” I bent down and wrapped my arms around her knees and shoulders and I picked her up.

“Then let’s go see your new home.” I turned back to my closet and my mother just stood, frozen.
“What is going on?” Her voice was a confused whisper.
“Follow and find out.” I walked into my closet and back towards the door.
“Baby, it’s just extra storage.” She called after us, but I walked through. Toya walked in after me and turned and waited.
“Go bring her to her room. I will bring your mom around.” mouthed a thank you and walked out of my room.
I heard a gasp as I walked out the door. “How is this possible?”
Toya chuckled. “Magic.”
I stepped up to the door that Carly left open. I bent down and placed Lynn’s feet on the ground, using my body to stabilize her as I pushed the door further in. “This is yours.
Lynn looked at me, confused. “Why aren’t you walking in?
I heard the tiny footsteps of Carly. “Because my daddy said you needed a place just for you. So you can feel safe.” Lynn turned around and my mom gasped behind me. “Who are you, little one?”
Carly smiled. “I’m Carly.” Her face dropped, and her bright brown eyes turned white. “Take this rest, warrior, as your time will come sooner than you think. Train your body, mind, and soul. The beta will come hunting, and you will have to face him to find your freedom. And your second chance at life.”
Lynn looked up at me. “You have the shaman?”
Her eyes cleared and turned to face me. “Is it dinnertime soon? I’m getting hungry.”
