Davy Harwood in Transition (The Immortal Prophecy 2) - Page 15

"I did what you did. Wolves can go inside of other wolves. We can take their pain too."

I frowned as I still twitched. "Emily's not a wolf."

"Her soul is entwined with one."

"What does that mean?"

She gave me a sad smile. "You'll see."

Then she left and I closed the door. As I slumped on my bed, I shook my head. That was weird, even for me.

CHAPTER SIX

The next few days were the same. I went to class, the hotline, and checked on Emily as I could. At first I'd been reluctant, but Pippa won me over. Her wolf's sniffing didn't tickle me as much and she wanted to help with Emily. She made a good argument. There was something unnatural about Emily's willingness to go to Pippa that night. I wasn't sure what to believe about the wolf thing, but I couldn't sense any bad intentions from Pippa. So Emily found herself with one more friend when she finally sat up three days later, weaned from Bennett's lovespell.

"Who is she?" Emily asked an hour later after Pippa had come with coffee and left again. "She lives on our floor? I've never noticed her before and I notice everything."

Well, not everything.

I shrugged and reached for a coffee. "I don't know. She likes you."

Emily went still at my words. "What do you mean?"

I frowned at her. "I don't mean that!"

"Oh." She relaxed in her seat.

"I just meant, I don't know. She likes you. I think she needs friends and can tell you're one of the good ones." I hurried towards the door since I was late for the stupid empath meeting that Blue kept making me promise to go to.

"Davy." Emily halted me when my hand reached for the handle. I glanced back and she smiled. "You're one of those too."

Awkward. "Sure. Have fun with your new girlfriend!"

"She's not my girlfriend," Emily shouted after me as I rushed down the hallway.

I couldn't stop my grin, but it vanished as Pippa came out of the bathroom. Judging by the look on her face, she'd heard Emily's comment. "Girlfriend?"

I slammed on my brakes, right in front of her, and spoke in my mind, 'If you hurt her, I will hurt you and trust me, I can. If you tell her anything about this, I will come after you and your whole pack. I don't need a slew of vampires. I can do a whole lotta damage by myself.'

Pippa's eyes widened when she heard my voice. 'You don't know what you just did. The Mother Wolf knows about you now.' Then she spoke, "How can you do that? What are you?"

A part of me regretted my impulse, but I covered it up and gave her a smug smile. "I think you should be asking 'who am I?' Don't say anything to Emily."

Pippa turned and watched when I started to inch towards the hallway's door. "It's not for me to say anything. She's linked to another wolf. It's his place to say it."

I paused in the doorway. "Good then…" Was it? As I turned and left, I knew I needed to learn as much as I could about werewolves. I knew they repressed their emotions, but they were different from vampires, a lot different.

I'd gotten as far as my car before my skin started to tingle. Talk about annoying and then everything rushed at me. I'd been about to open my car door when the Immortal took over. Everything flew around me and I was lifted into the air. My eyes narrowed as I looked out and saw another approaching vampire group. There was no captured Wren with them and these vampires didn't seem bent on war. I hoped not. Then I closed my eyes and found myself in Roane's office. Everything still circled around me, but I saw him and Wren at his desk. Their voices were muffled when I heard her say, "—for her. Why can't we let that happen?"

Roane straightened. "If you're loyal to me, you're loyal to my decisions. Are you not, Wren?"

She stepped away from the desk and sighed with her head bent. "You know I am. You know what I gave up."

Roane narrowed his eyes. "Then trust me."

Gregory swept through the door in that moment. "They're here."

Wren's eyes widened and Roane shut down. He clipped out, "Let's get ready."
