it carefully. There was always this chip in the watch that always bothered me. I my finger nail in the little chip and pried it open. A note floated out when I finally got it open.
Dear Nova,
I wanted everything for you and Astra, but I know my time is short. I want you to know that even when I am gone there will always be someone there for you two. When you find this, it means you two are in danger. Go find Henry Giles, he is and always will be the person I trust to take care of you two, and find where the place where the two planets touch. When you really need me, just remember how you felt when you and Astra played in the sprinklers. Stay safe.
Grandpa
I shoved the note in my pocket and dashed the tears away, “Nova?” Alexzander softly said. I got up and walked towards the window, “We need to go where the two planets touch.”
“You mean in the stories?” Astra whispered.
“I think so.”
“What stories?” Collin asked.
“The stories grandpa told us when we were younger. It was always placed where the two planets touched.” I ran into the room and locked the door. I slid down the door and let the tears fall.
“Should we go after her?” I heard Collin ask through the doors.
“Let her be, she will come out when she is ready.” I barely heard Astra. I closed my eyes and thought back to earlier times, when grandpa was still alive and I thought changing into animals was normal. When all I needed to worry about was not to get caught eating cookies.
Chapter 32
Astra
“So you saw your grandfather?” Said Collin. “How do you think that happened?”
I shrugged my shoulders. “I did see him and speak to him. I honestly have no idea how it happened. But I will be sure to find his killer and kill them. Even if it means that I have to die.”
He nodded his head. “I’m going to go scope out the hotel. You should stay here.” His eyes fell to my robe. And I blushed slightly. “I’ll see you soon.”
After he was gone I looked around the room for my clothes, but I still couldn’t find anything.
Then I went to the closet and found a hanger with a clothes bag on it.
I grabbed it and opened it.
I was looking at a leather outfit. The whole works pants, a corset top, a belt, and a pair of black heels.
I could only wonder who picked this outfit out.
Since it was the only thing I could find, I changed into it.
It took me a few minutes to get the corset strung properly. Once done, I looked in the mirror. I looked absolutely amazing. The leather fit my every curve. The corset showed off my stomach, and a good amount of my chest.
Who ever picked this out obviously wasn’t thinking of keeping a low profile. But they did have good taste in clothes.
I left the bedroom. Everyone but Collin was back in the room. When Alexzander saw me he whistled. “Damn girl. You look good.”
Nova punched him. “Stop looking at my cousin like that.”
“Sure thing little ninja.” He kissed her. He snuck another look at me. And Nova punched him again. “I’m just kidding.”
Scott had a big grin on his face. “I sure picked out a good outfit. I should have hid your clothes sooner.”
“I’m going to pretend like you didn’t say that. I would really appreciate it you would give me my clothes. When Collin gets back we need to talk about how to find Henry Giles.”

“There just happens to be a guy I know that lives here in Madrid. He might know where to start looking for Henry Giles. We can go see him when Collin gets back.” Said Alexzander.
A few minutes later Collin walked in the door with coffee. Four in one hand and one in the other hand. Collin cocked an eyebrow when he saw my outfit. “I thought we were supposed to be keeping a low profile.”
“That’s what I said to myself. But someone here hid my clothes.” I motioned to Scott. “I’m just saying but it had the dress in it that you let me borrow.”
“I want those clothes back now. If that dressed is damaged, you won’t live to see the next full moon.” Collin threatened.
“Dude no harm.” Collin went to a cabinet and pulled out my bag. “See. Everything is in here.” He tossed my bag onto the couch. “One of those for me?”
“One is for everyone else. But not you.”
Scott’s jaw twitched. “That’s alright. I’ll just go and get my own coffee.” He left the room slamming the door behind him.
“You don’t need to be mean to Scott.”
“I do need to be mean to him. That dog needs to learn to not mess with my girl.”
“Is that what I am now?” I asked him.
“If only you want to be.”
I kissed him on the lips. “Does that answer your question?”
He didn’t reply, he just kissed me harder. I totally did not think about the rest of the people in the room.

Chapter 33
Nova

When Astra and Collin started to kiss me and Alexzander looked at each other. We both were trying to keep from laughing, but we couldn’t hold it in. We both ran out of the room laughing, but I didn’t think they noticed, they were too much in their own little world to notice anything. Alexzander and I were laughing on the ground outside the door. We both knew this was going to happen, but it was so sudden.
Alexzander kissed me lightly on my lips, “Come on let’s give them privacy.” He got up and pulled me up with him.
“Ok, but can we go get something to eat?”
“Didn’t you just have a muffin?”
“Yeah, but…. Can’t a girl want something to eat without questions?” Alexzander just laughed and pulled me down the hallway by the waist. We got outside and the sun was just going down. “Did you really like what Astra was wearing?” I pouted.
“Is Nova jealous?”
“No, but I can wonder if he thinks my cousin looks good.”
“I thought she looked good,’ he pulled me closer me, “but you would look better.”
“Good, that’s what I want to hear from your mouth.” I stuck my tongue out at him and ran down the street. I turned corners and stopped in front of a park gate. Alexzander came running up next to me, “Damn you have too much energy for a weakling like you.”
“And you have hardly any for someone who has a lot of muscles.” I jumped on his back and he walked around the park for awhile and when the sun finally gone down we started to walk back to the hotel. I grabbed his hand and swung it back and forth. I felt a tingle run down my back and I turned around. Two guys were walking behind us with their heads down. Alexzander must have saw them to because we started to walk fast.
Alexzander pushed me up against the wall and put his hands on my hips. The guys stopped and looked through a glass window. “Just play along, when I tell you to, run,” He whispered in my ear.
I giggled like I was drunk and brought his head near my mouth, “I am not leaving without you. I can protect myself.” I grew out my canines to prove a point.
He kissed me hard and murmured against my lips, “Can’t you just do what I say?”
“Not if that means I leave so you could take all the danger.” I kissed him on the cheek and smiled, “Love you.” I pushed him off and ran towards the guys. I quickly turned into a tiger and jumped on one of the guys backs. I bit into the guy’s neck; I could feel the other guy trying to pull me off, but Alexzander knocked him off his feet. I felt the guy under my tiger weight shift and I was standing face to face with a wolf. I knew he was a werewolf because he had light blue eyes.
The werewolf was quickly losing blood from his neck, but he still stood and growled at me. The wolf jumped, but another wolf slammed into him before the first wolf got to me. I shifted into a human and looked at the stuff I was sitting in. Coffee. That meant the second wolf must be…. “Scott!” I screamed. I was quickly distracted by Alexzander’s fight. I turned into a huge bear and roared at the fight. Both guys stopped and I swiped the dude in the face with my grizzly paw. I turned back into human and ran to Alexzander. Scott came up to us with a cockily smile, “You owe me.”
“I owe you nothing. You’re the dumbass who jumped at the wolf.”
“How about a kiss?” I stomped on his foot and stormed away. When I got in the suit Collin and Astra both jumped to their feet, “What happened to you, you look horrible!” Astra came up to me.
“Oh thanks, you don’t look bad yourself.”
“Where is Alexzander?” Collin asked.
“He should be walking in-“Alexzander came in and sat next to be. “Sorry I was mad.”
“You should be, it is ok,” he kissed me on my forehead and Scott walked in. Scott nose was completely bloody and he had a black eye. Astra and I started to laugh and after awhile Collin and Alexzander joined.
“Y-You look bloody!” I laughed out loud. Scott flipped me off and walked into the bathroom. My day just got a whole lot better.
Chapter 34
Astra
“It’s obviously not safe here. Since you both just got attacked again. I say we should head out tonight.”
“But I’m so tired.” Whined Nova.
“You shouldn’t have gotten into a fight. You should have stayed here and rested.”
“I wasn’t about to stay with you and Collin making out.”
I could feel the blood rush to my face. “Not the point. This was bound to happen again, and is going to keep happening till it gets put to a stop.”
“Actually the hotel is protected by a magic. And if a creature comes in here seeking to harm someone else, they get zapped out.” Collin spoke from the back ground.
“That’s not helping.”
“Sorry.”
“But he made a point on why we should stay. And this hotel really is nice.” Nova put in.
“Remember we’re in Spain. And you’ve always wanted to come here and see the sights. Do you think you’re going to do that sitting here in a hotel room?”
She pursued her lips. “That’s true. But I’m not going to leave.”
“Alright then. We’ll stay here. But I do plan on going out and partying.”
“How are you going to do that? You have no party clothes with you.” Said Nova.
“I have the dress Collin let me have.”
“If I remember correctly, that dress was used when you dumped Scott. Would that really be appropriate to party in with your boyfriend?” She had pointed out something I hadn’t thought of.
“I don’t see a problem taking her to get a dress. It can be my first present to her.”
I looked at Collin and saw the sincerity in his eyes. I would have to find a way to make this up to him later. “How are we going to find a dress shop that’s near here, and is still open?”
“I believe the hotel has a dress shop. I know a lady who works there; she was friends with our mother. She’ll help.”
“Thank you.”
