Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future by Neener Beener chapter 15

The next day we meet with the Betas and Gammas in Bronx’s office first thing in the morning. They all agree on something right away. I don’t get to leave the packhouse unless I have two security guards at all times. We don’t know where Ryan or his dad are. Bronx is not willing to take any chances.

Ashley picks up her phone and laptop and goes to the back of the office where there is a small conference table. She comes back a few minutes later with a smile on her face.

“All set. They’ll be here in fifteen minutes,” she says cheerfully.

“Good work, Ashley. Alright team, next order of business. We have to do research and figure out why Kas has powers and if there is anything we need to do to make accommodations for her, ” Bronx says, ” Kas, tell us what you have experienced so far.

Please.“

His demeanor when we are around other people is a stark difference from when we are alone together. This version of Bronx is kinda s*xy, I must admit.

“Well, the first thing that happened was my eyes changed color to violet. The left one first, then the right one. They started to

change when I was in the pack hospital after…well, I was healing from an injury, ” I try to avoid getting into gory details, ” Within a few days they were both the color they are now. But before that they were just plain old gray.“

Bronx is taking notes on his laptop. The others are just paying attention to what I am saying.

“I noticed my hair changing color next. It used to be light brown. The color change started just after my eyes changed. It was a little darker at first and it happened in sections on my hair, but it happened quickly. Even though it’s long, locks of it would go from brown to silver overnight, until it was all silver. I think it was a total of two weeks from brown to silver. Once it was all silver, it lightened up and got more sparkly.”

“Have you tried to cut it?” Lenora asks.

“No. The last time I had to cut my hair was because someone threw gum at me. That was before it was silver, ” I say matter of factly. Bronx lets out a low growl.

“Knock it off, Bronx, ” Milo says, “We’re trying to move forward here.“

It’s the first time I have heard Milo speak to Bronx this way, but it works. Milo clears his throat and motions for me to continue.

“The burning people with my hands, well, the first time was a day or two before Lex woke up fully. The second time, she took over and I couldn’t stop her.“

“I’m sorry. Did you say burning people?” Reggie looks at me with wide eyes.

“Old news, Reggie. Keep up, Babe, ” Ashley dismisses her mate, “Keep going, Kas.“
