A few minutes April came in with the car seat and just left it on the bed. I guess she wasn’t talking today. I placed Tommy in his car seat, and then took him in the garage. There April was in the car. It was already on. I seat in the back with Tommy.
..................
When we got to the funeral home, there were no questions or anything. It’s like they were already waiting for us. No words were said. I took Tommy into my hands and walked in. The little fella was still sleeping. They just took Mia’s body to the back and started cremating her. April just stood there, staring at her mother burn.
I went back to the front. The lady behind the counter gave me a small smile. “Would you like to pick out the box?” I just nod my head. “Follow me then.” We walked into another room with rows of wooden boxes. I chase a light brown box the shape of a hexagon. “You know you can add words to it.”
“You think you can write, ‘not even death can kill me since I live inside of you’, in silver cursive?” Mia use to say she wasn’t really going to die.
“That’s really lovely. Just give me a few minutes,” she said and walked out to another door. I went back to the front and sat on a couch with Tommy still in my arms. When the lady came back out she was holding the box. In the front were the words in silver and on the other five side had a silver floral pattern. I think Mia would have loved it.
“How much do I owe you?”
“No need the decease paid in ahead.”
....................
Back home we sat in the kitchen table. Tommy was still asleep in his car seat on the table. April opens a box and she handed me a litter. It had my name in nice hand writing that belonged to Mia. I opened the envelope and started to read.
‘My dear Anthony you’re all they have left. Even though you haven’t been with us for very long, I’ve grown to love you as a son. Please don’t leave them. In my room there is a series of Harry Potter. Read them in order to understand what you are dealing with. I hope that when you know the whole truth you won’t leave them.
If you choose to stay then there’s someone I’d like you to meet. His name is Richard Vasquez and he’ll find you if you choose to stay. Right now April’s probably in her own world. If you're gonna leave make sure she snaps out of it. Goodbye and don’t get in too much trouble.’
I look up to see that April was still lost staring at the paper.
Chapter Three; Leaving HomeI couldn’t lift my gaze of the letter. I found myself rereading it over and over. It wasn’t until I heard Tommy start to cry that I looked up. Pull yourself together. We need to start leaving and Tommy needs us. You’re wright. I got up and took Tommy out of his car seat. Poor fella must be hungry. I went to the fridge and took out a bottle of milk and popped it in the microwave. When he heard the microwave turn on he settled down.I think he knows that his milk is almost ready. That's when I realized it was barely around twelve. Once the timer went off and I put the cap on, I handed Tommy his milk. I think it’s cute how when he’s eating, he tends to look at the people giving him the food, in the eyes.
I turned around to see Anthony staring at me. “You should start packing, we leave tonight.”
....................
We finished packing everything around five. Our bags were lined out in the hallway. I was playing with Tommy who kept on trying to walk but always fell on the third step. I would always catch him before his but hits the floor. Tommy fell asleep around eight. I decided to get my sketchbook and draw. Anthony had been reading Harry Potter this whole time and it looks like he’s almost done with the book. He would randomly look up from his book and just stare at me. I decided to draw Tommy’s sleepy form.
....................
It was twelve thirty when the driver came by and took us to the airport. At the airport there was a private plane waiting for us.
(Anthony's POV)
By the time we made it to the airport and our private plane I was almost done with the second book. This wasn’t any Harry Potter book but the diaries of Mia. I felt like an intruder reading these. I can’t help but wonder if April had read them already.
They’re about when she was little and how she got kidnapped when she was six by a mad man named Victor Rodriguez. It was more like a journal about what they did to her and all the experiments. Since the first page I wanted to shred this book into pieces but I needed to know what they did to her. In the beginning of the third book it talked about training and how they were teaching her how to kill. I guess Victor had a son that helped Mia escape at the age of thirteen and told her were her real family lived.
Her forth book was about returning to her family. How all she had of then was this neckles that I guess April started wearing today. By the time she got to the ‘pack’, no one knew who she was. Everyone thought she was a simple human. When she found her family they were at the park playing with a two year old. She got close inoff and acted like all the other kids in the playground.
She soon realizes that they forgot about her and moved on. She was more mad that they couldn’t identify her scent and didn’t recognize her wolf. For weeks she just looked at them from afar. She said they looked happy and at piece. She decided to hit the road. Mia wrote about the places she’s been, the jobs she took, and the people she met.
When she was seventeen, she saved a little boy’s life. He ran for his ball into the street. Mia was there and the car was going full speed to the little boy. His parents were drinking coffee at the Cafe she was working in. Mia was fast enough to get to the boy and used her body to protect him. The little boy’s parents adopted her. That how she became Mia McGuire, the daughter of millionaires.
The fourth journal was about her life with Richard, her ‘husband’. I decided not to read that one. My blood was already boiling from the first two journals. I felt high on adrenaline and had no way of letting it out. I threw the book to the wall. That caused April to wake up and jump out of her skin.
She gave me a questionable look then said, “I know the last book is a major let down but don’t you think you’re over reacting.”
I took one of the books and took off the protective cover, exposing Mia’s journals. “Like I said, the last book is a major let down.”
“You’ve read them?”
“Yeah…. When I was ten I found her journals. Since then I’ve known why I can’t transform into my wolf. Mother always thought I was oblivious to her childhood.”
“A wolf?” Yeah, Mia’s death totally hit her hard.
“If you read the fifth book then you will find out that we are. Most people call us,” she did air quotes in the air,” werewolves. Here!” April takes out a book from her bag and throws it to me. “It belongs to my grandparent. My mother took it when she went to go find it. It’s been passed down from alpha to alpha. My mother was the next Luna by birth right. She took it when she decided to leave. She also kept the alpha ring and a few family jewelry. She planned on going back but then she met my sperm donor.”
“My mother was tested and experimented so much that her wolf became pretty strong and powerful. When I was born my wolf was way too much for my body. My little body couldn’t take it so my mom had me on this medicine made to weaken my wolf. It’s kind of like morphine. Anyways, I still take it.”
“So where exactly are we going?”
“When I was seven my sperm donor made my mother lose all contact with the McGuire’s. I think they have a right to know that their daughter died. Plus I think I’m overdue to go visit my grandparents. We’ll stay for a day and then leave to California.”
“What’s in California?”
“My mother’s pack, a secret grave yard for that specific pack and also my mother built a house there for us. I think my mother thought we would be safer there. I don’t know but I’ll tell you right know, I don’t want to be a part of that life.”
“Why not? If you’re telling the truth, then aren’t you like royalty.”
“Actually I am but last time I checked there at war with vampires, rogues and another pack. In other words, they’re screwed. I don’t want Tommy around all of that. Anyways my mom didn’t leave all willy-nilly. The Beta threatened her to leave. Plus I just want a peaceful life.” She stretched out her arms and beyond. It was already around four and I know she hadn’t slept all day so I decided this conversation can continue in the morning.
“Goodnight.”
“Wake me up when we land.”
“Sure but I’m sure when the pilot says we're almost there, you would already be awake.”
Her eyes were already closing when she said, “true.”
(April’s POV)
“Mr. and Ms. McGuire we are ready to land. I’d advise you to buckle up.” The pilot woke me up using the speakers. I looked around to see Anthony still reading the book I Threw at him. It’s a journal of all the alphas before my mom. She was so mad that the Beta threatened her that she took everything of sentimental value. It was a bit drastic but a girl has a wright to be mad. I Mean she was being tortured while her parents were happy with another child that wasn’t even theirs.
They replaced her and left her to be screwed by fate. She lived for thirty-five years and fourteen of those were spent in hell. My sperm donor took most of his torture methods out of the journals.I Kept my own journals from my years with him. Mine contained images of his cruelty. It was a reminder of all the things I’ve lived through.I’ve also got plenty of scars and bite marks from him. He would bite me and say “you’re mine, only mine.” It was pretty disgusting the way he saw me sometimes.
My mother always made sure he never took things to for, or at least she tried her hardest.
The screeches of the plane’s tires took me out of my thoughts. We finally arrived at Baltimore in Maryland. The house was close since the
