Camden was washing them and I was drying and putting them away. “So how are you half wolf?” I felt the color drain from my face.
“ I..uh..I don’t Know.” He turned around to look at me.
“Why are you lying? You don’t have to tell me…I was just wondering but if you..”
“No, no it’s fine,” I sighed and sit down in one of the kitchen chairs, “I think, that um…my dad must have cheated, most likely when one of you members worked for us.” I looked up to find him staring at my with pity. “Please don’t look at me like that, I don’t really mind. My mom thinks she is my mom and I consider her my mom so…It’s fine really.” He was still staring but not with pity. His eyes danced with curiosity so I decided to change the subject before he asked questions.
“ So do you want me to show you some magic?” His eyes lit up even more.
“YES!!! What can you do? Can you do it inside? Is it some kind of spell or do you have to make a potion? Whe-”
“Okay, Okay, Okay! I will show you jeez, follow me,” We walked out to the living room that I woke up in and I sat down by the fire. “Here, sit next to me.” I said, patting the floor. He walked over and sat down. “Now take my hand and watch the fire.”
“Ok-ay.” He said grabbing my hand. We watched the fire for a few minutes as I chanted a small song.
“Ee-tu-ita um-kah eyahf fantaz kal, Ee-tu um-kah eyahf fantaz kal.” I felt the power take over me, filling me with a warmth unlike anything else. It flowed through me and into Camden who gasped next to me. It flowed over to the fire and pictures rose in the flames. At first there was a face, smiling and laughing. Then the face became familiar, becoming Camden, his body formed, he was dancing in fancy clothes with someone. I saw my face form in his partner, my hair curly, bouncing this way and that while we danced. We spun and spun, he lifted me as we twirled in rhythm with the silent music. The scene faded as we walked of into the flames.
“Wow, that was so wow…I, wow.” Camden stammered, mouth hanging open.
“Yeh, it wasn’t all me ya know.” He looked surprised.
“What do you mean? Who else could it have been?” He laughed and walked over to the coach.
“It was you stupid. I used your thoughts to form the picture, I have to admit I didn’t think I would be on your mind.” I got up and sat across from him.
“OH, um haha well I um..” He blushed and rubbed the back of his neck, “ I um was going to ask you uh, hmmp if you uh wanted to go to the ball with me tomorrow?” He looked up shyly. It was funny that he was acting shy around me, usually I am the one to be shy or nervous.
“What kind of dance?” I asked , sitting up so I was a little closer to him.
“Well we have a ball every winter, a winter ball, and it is for all of the pack and their friends. So I thought we could go, I thought you would like to go and get to meet more people and stuff.”
“Okay, that sounds like fun. Is it formal? What do I wear? I don’t have any dresses, or nice clothes at all really.” He chuckled at my rambling and leaned back on the coach. “Stop laughing at me, I’m serious.” I pouted
“I’m sorry, I wasn’t laughing at you, you just amuse me that’s all.” I turned my back to him and held my head high. He climbed over and dragged me to him, earning a squeak from me. “I’m sorry, forgive me,” He nuzzled his face in the crook of my neck, “Please, I’m sorry.” His breath on my neck caused me to shiver. Why did it feel so right in his arms? It shouldn’t.
“Okay. Okay, I forgive you, I do.” I tried to wiggle out of his arms but he pulled me back, nuzzling my neck again, “St-stop-Cam” I gasped as I felt him nip my neck.
“Sorry, you just smell so good.” He kissed my neck and got up. I could feel the blush rise to my cheeks. I got up and stood by the fire.
“So…uh are we…um, how long are we staying here?” I asked.
“Just until tomorrow, its to late to travel back now and I am tired,” He stretched and walked to the small hallway on the other side of the room, Common I’ll show ya the bedroom.” He motioned for me to follow him.
“THE bedroom?” I asked hopping there was more then one.
“yeh, that’s what I said isn’t it?” He opened a door and pushed me in. it was beautiful. It was huge. The walls were white with a dark brown trim, the bed was dark brown with white pillows and a curtain that pulled all around it. There was a door and a deck that lead out to the yard. “Here.” I held up my hand before I turned around and caught the clothes he through to me. When I turned around he had a huge smile on and was shaking his head.
“What?” I looked down to find that I had caught a long boys shirt.
“Nothing, I have to get use to you being a wolf.” He smiled again
“Oh. Well, um where do I change?” I said looking around.
“That’s what the bedrooms for.” He said in a DUH tone.
“Humpf, Turn around then gosh.” I said shewing him with my hands.
“Fine,Fine.” He held his hands up in defeat and turned around.
I got dressed as fast as I could. I picked up all of my day clothes and walked past Camden to put them by the door.
“okay now where am I sleeping?” I asked
“In the bed?” He said, more like a question then an answer
“Then where are you sleeping?” I said walking to the bed.
“IN THE BED…..” He stated in his annoying duh tone
“I am not sleeping with you.” I stood with my arms crossed at the end of the bed.
“Common Karma, you sleep on the same bed as me back home.”
“Yeh well no one could help me if you tried anything tonight.” I said not making eye contact. In a second he was by my side.
“would that be so bad?” He whispered in my ear. I shivered uncontrollably.
“uh..I..” I sighed and walked towards the door. Before I was even two steps away, he grabbed my waist and dragged me to the bed. “Camden let go of me this instance!!!” I yeld hitting his hands
“Shhh Karma I promise I wont try anything.” He set me in the bed and got in next to me.
Rolling over, he grabbed me and pulled me against his hard, toned, smooth…ugh, his stomach.
“Camden!” I warned, but made no move to get away.
“Karma go to sleep, you feel safer like this anyways.” His grip against me tighten and I could feel his breath against my neck. I suggled into him and as my eyes closed I felt him smile against my skin.


The sun was shinning when I woke up. Camden was still next to me, breathing down my neck. I rolled over and scooted back, but he pulled me to him again. I sighed and laid my head against his chest. When I woke up next Camden’s breathing was different. I looked up at his face to fine his eyes open and a smile on his face.
I could get use to waking up like this
Shut up
You know you love it
No only you do and that is because you are the wolf part of me and he is another wolf that knows about you.
Sure, what ever.
Ha, I’m right.
“Morning…,” I said to Camden. He was looking at me with an amused expression, “What?” I asked sitting up
“Do you have an inner wolf?” He asked still smiling
“uh yah why?” I sat up all the way and faced him
“You were just talking to her weren’t you?” He asked, his smile widening.
“Um…Yah why? How’d you know?” I asked blushing at being caught.
“Haha no reason to get embarrassed, It just looked like you were talking to someone. All new wolves do that haha I guess you aren’t use to her talking to you?”
“Yeh she hasn’t talked to me for a while.” I yawned and stretched
“Oh well what was she talking about?”
“Um…nothing.” I blushed even harder
“What? Common tell me! Tell me.” He got closer, trapping my legs in his. He tickled my sides lightly, making me squeal. “Please tell me” he said still tickling me.
“No I…ha-ha stop!” He pulled me close to him, trapping my arms. “Tell. Me.” He whispered, tickling me even more.
“I..uh...fine, she said that it was nice to wake up to you gosh…hahaha please stop!”
He stop tickling me but still held me close.
“See that wasn’t to hard, and tell her thank you, I don’t mind waking up with a pretty girl in my bed either.” He got up and stretched, the muscles rippling under his shirt.
“What do you want for breakfast?” he said, snapping me out of my daze.
“OOOO!!! I’m making pancakes!!” I screamed as I ran out to the kitchen.
“Why can’t I make them? Don’t trust me? I thought we already went over this I wont try anything that you wont like.”
“You can’t make pancakes like I can trust me-you are going to love me after you try these!!!” I flew back and forth grabbing ingredients. He muttered something that sounded like to late but I couldn’t quite here him. “What?”
“I said I’m sure they’ll be great.” He smiled and I beamed at him
“They will!!!”


~Camden’s POV~
Karma flew around the kitchen grabbing things to make pancakes with. She looked so good in my shirt. Last night my wolf almost got me a couple of times. He wants me to play with her, to take her, maker her ours. Every time I get close he goes crazy. I asked her why I couldn’t make the pancakes and apparently she makes them better. “..you are going to love me after you try these!” She said
“Too late.” It slipped out before I could stop myself. I have to be a lot more careful around her. She is going to be the death of me. When she was done making enough pancakes for an entire pack, she brought me a giant plate full. They were golden with dark brown swirls in them. I took a bite and realized that the dark brown was a creamy milk chocolate. They were perfect! I pulled her into my lap and hugged her tight, “These are amazing!!” I said stuffing my mouth with more heaven. “HOW?” how was it possible that such a simple food tasted so…otherworldly?
“My mom gave me an old recipe and I spiced it up a little, and so far everyone has loved ‘em.” She said blushing, God I loved it when she blushed. Gosh is there anything she can’t do? She is funny, has a great laugh, is half wolf already, cooks, is clean and….
Is ours
She has to decide for herself
But she is
I know she will see it soon
Our mate, we need to protect her
I have never agreed with you
