I suddenly felt a shivery feeling, you know, those when somebody's fingers are close to your skin. Yeah, those. Then I became aware of the heated and piercing gaze on my neck. That's when it clicked, I smelt an old musty scent instead of Ryder's delicious ones.

"Who's there?" I called out, in a defensive stance. Nobody answered and the kitchen remained empty and quiet. Must be my imagination, I shrugged.

Yeah, this must be it, Gwen said sighing in relieve. Guys, we caught another scent, and we both know that it doesn't belong to a werewolf, Drew argued. Enough, it was nothing. There should be a scientific explanation for it if it's real, I argued back. I felt a nagging feeling and knew that I was just trying to turn from the truth. I was sure there was someone. There isn't any for werewolves or demons, Drew snorted. But- That's when I felt my words clog in my throat.

It's just... its just something I can deal alone." I explained hastily. "Stop lying Sapph. A blind man could see that something is bugging you. And by the way, sharing is caring."
