I watched as we were driving away to go park 51

“Because I would like to see some of my family come here for once. And it would be rude not to include the royals, even
if they don’t come, it would still be rude not to include them. And if they don’t come that’s less people/wolves to
contend with.” “Remember Carson wanted to go over some packs with us, as well.” “I remember, if they are not on the
list then we can remove some that we have to add the ones he wants.” “Ok.” I get a link from Sarah that it’s time for
dinner. “It’s dinner time we will finish this tomorrow.”
CARSON: Lilly, Calen, and I get home in time to get things wrapped for Keska’s birthday tomorrow and get freshened up
for dinner. I even made sure that I bought two phones, one for Keska, and one for Mackie. I invite them both to the pack
house to have dinner with the rest of us. “I think I will, I need to ask the Alpha a favor.” Calen says. “What’s that?” I ask
him. “My grand pup Karen wants to come visit, but it will be during the week of the ball.” He says. “I wouldn’t think it to
be a problem, as she will be staying with you here right?” I asked him. “Yes.” “Lilly how about you?” I enquired “I believe I will join you as well, I just need to let Stephen know.” “I don’t mean to pry, but why?” She smiles at me. “He was assigned
to me from my family after my mate passed, I guard the family secret. And they want to make sure I am taken care of.”
She says. There is no need for us to ask what secret, we both know who Lilly is, and what she is capable of.
LILLY: I link Stephen. *“I am home, but I am going to go up to the pack house with Carson and Calen to have dinner with
everyone, please come join us.” “Do you wish me to drive?” “No, we can walk back.” “Ok thank you miss Lilly I will join
you.”* I then link Carla to let her know we are coming for dinner. We leave Calen’s house and head to the pack house.
When we get there I notice that Keska is antsy and can’t seem to be still. I link her. *“Are you all right?” “No Nana, I just
can’t seem to calm down, I feel a little itchy which is new, I haven’t slept well for the last two nights, do you think I might
be addicted to the pain meds?” “No dear I don’t think that I believe that it’s because you are so used to being active and
now you are forced into being inactive that you are feeling this way.” “Well, I hate it, what can I do?” “We will go for a
long walk after dinner ok. That should help.” “Ok, can Mackie come with?” “Yes dear she can come with.” *
KESKA: Everyone sits down for dinner; I am so antsy I can barely contain myself; I feel the itchiness getting worse. Then
the conversation turns to the investigation. “Kes what do you remember from the attack?” Father asked me. “I had 3
people near me, the one that grabbed me from behind, with a hand over my mouth, the one that stabbed me, and one
other that was blocking me in, so I couldn’t run, they all had black hooded sweatshirts on that covered most of their face,
and there was this odd smell with all three of them, like they plastered themselves in mud, so they all smelled the same.”
I said, “Anything else at all, height, scars, tat’s.” “I know that the one that grabbed me may have been around Frank’s
height, because he picked me up by my neck, the bruises have faded some but there is still a bit of the imprint is still
visible.” And I lift my head up and show my neck. “I will have to talk to Dr. Grant, about something, but that will have to wait until tomorrow.” Father says. “Enough talk about the attack please?” mom asked, “Of course dear.” Father says to
her. “What do you want for breakfast in the morning Keska?” mom asked me. “egg cakes, bacon, sausage and scrambled
eggs.” I say. “What are egg cakes?” Uncle Carson asked, “They are like pancakes, but they have extra eggs in them, so
they aren’t as thick as a pancake, more like a thicker crape.” I tell him. “Where or how did you come up with that idea?”
“Mackie and I were experimenting, we wanted something similar to pigs in a blanket, but the blanket was too thick, so we thinned it down by adding extra eggs to the batter.” I tell him. “Alpha I have a favor to ask of you.” Calen said. “Ask
away.” “My grand pup wishes to come for a visit, but it will be during the ball.” He says. “I have no problem with that, just
please have her bring two formal dresses, as she will need them, for the festivities.” Father says. “Thank you Alpha.” The
rest of dinner goes by amiably.
LILLY: After dinner I stated to everyone present that I was taking Keska for a good long walk. “Mind her stitches mother.”
Carla said to me. “Don’t worry dear I think I can manage her.” I said. “Link Mickie and have her meet us out front.” I tell
Keska. I watch her eyes glaze over, so I know she is doing what I asked. “Can I come too?” Liam asked. “Of course, dear.” I
said to him. We leave the house. Stephen, Liam, Keska, and I, Mackie is outside waiting. “Now here is the route we will
take, we will head toward the school, then cut back across the football field, head toward the lake and come back up on
the back side of the pack house, that should be enough of a walk to let you be able to sleep tonight.” I told Kes. “Thank
you Nana.” And we set off.
KESKA: By the time we got back from the walk that Nana had set for us, I was tired, and it was time for bed. “Want to stay
I asked Mackie. “Sure.” We both said good night to Nana and Stephen, and headed inside and up to bed. I actually fell
asleep as soon as my head hit my pillow. *(HEY KESKA WAKE UP!)* “Huh?” *(WAKE UP GIRL, WE NEED TO GO OUTSIDE.)*
“What? Why?” *(BECAUSE I NEED TO SHIFT.)* “It’s too early I’m only 16 we don’t shift until 18.” *(WELL, I AM GOING TO
SHIFT, SO GET YOUR BUTT UP AND GET US OUTSIDE.)* “For goddess sake bossy much?” *(NOT UNLESS I HAVE TO BE.
I’M CORLA BY THE WAY.)* “Nice to meet you.” I get up and head downstairs and out the back door. I feel exhausted by
the time get outside, I fall to the ground as I am in pain, I thought getting stabbed was bad, that has nothing on this
pain. I can feel every bone in my body breaking one by one, shifting, reforming and knitting back together. Finally, it’s
done. I stand up on four shaky legs.
MACKIE: I hear Kes rolling around on her bed like she is in pain, I was about to get up to make sure she was alright when
she got up and went downstairs, I followed her, and when she fell to the ground I started forward and then I heard the
sound of breaking bones, I am not going to lie I am scared out of my wits, I link Nana, *“Nana Something is happening
with Kes!”* I practically shout at her. *“Mackie! No need to shout in my head like that.”* She scolds. *“I am sorry Nana,
but something is happening with Kes, I think she might be shifting.”
