Life After the Storm

I go to see Landon before he actually does the pack meeting, I need to talk to him. I rush out to him, but he's not there, wondering where he went. I have no idea how to bring this up to him, but I need to. I just hope he believes me. He has no reason not to. Before I get to go outside, he comes out of the bathroom, I jump.

"There you are, I have been looking everywhere for you."

He looks at me weird. "I was in the bathroom. I didn't know that I needed to tell you where I go at all times.

I blush a little, thinking of him with his pants off. "I need to talk to you about Jayden. He just told me something very interesting."

"Well, he is a child and he has quite an imagination."

"I need you to have an open mind, I don't think he's imagining this because I experienced it too."

He looks at me, concerned, not really sure what I am about to say. "He told me that he gets hurt on purpose because it's the only way that he gets to see his mother."

"What come on Lilly, how is he able to see his mother she is dead there is no way he can see her he is making it up,"

"That's where you're wrong Jayden is a Healer when we die, we can see our dead loved ones."

"So what are you saying that he did it on purpose."

"I know that it's hard to believe, but it's true he did it on purpose to see his mother. He said that he gets hurt all the time because he likes to visit her."

"So you're telling me that the person who is bringing the rouges in my territory is no one other than my son."

"I know it sounds crazy, but it's true he's not bringing them in to hurt others just himself, so he can see his mother because he thinks he can't I die

He looks pissed "but this time he almost died,"

"Yes, because the rouge scratched his heart, the only way we can die is when our heart is ripped out of the chest and his was showing. But he was fine because I healed him, that's why I kept you away.
