Pack 3

 

  Seven

  We arrived at the big house in Philadelphia. I was thankful the children didn’t sell it and neither did the grandchildren.

  “Who’s house is this?” CJ asked.

  “Mine, it’s the house in that picture.” I bend down and pulled the key out of the hiding spot. I unlock the front door and we walked in.

  “Wow! This place is huge!” CJ said.

  I walked around and checking out the house fully. It hasn’t been lived in for years. Cob webs were thick and a heavy layer dust covered everything. I turned and walked up the stairs and stopped outside my old bedroom door, I slowly opened it and walked in.

  The room was exactly as I remember it. I walked over to the bed and seen the blood stains from Matt. I ran my fingers over it and took a sigh.

  “Nora?” Corbin called from the door.

  “Yeah.” I answered.

  “There is a guy at the door looking for you. He said his name is Zander?” Corbin said.

  “Oh, yeah that’s my great grandson. Let him in.” I said walking over to the closet. I opened the door and walked in. I ran my hand over the clothes and something black caught my eye. I pulled out a black garment bag and walked over to the bed. I sat it on the bed and unzipped it. I pulled out my wedding dress.

  “Nora?” Zander voice surprised me.

  “Hello Zander. What’s going on?” I asked.

  “I been waiting outside for you for awhile. I need a place to stay.” he said.

  “Yeah? You can stay here.” I put the dress back in the bag and hung it in the closet.

  “You really are my great grandmother, aren’t you?” he asked really understanding everything.

  “Yes.” I turned and looked at him.

  “Who are those other people?” he asked.

  “Well CJ, the girl is your distant cousin. Kyle and Corbin are old friends. And I guess Corbin now is my mate.” I said looking at him.

  “So where will I be sleeping?” he asked heading for the door.

  “Follow me.” I led him out of the room and down to Travis’s old room.

  “This one, this was Travis’s old bedroom.” I didn’t go in.

  “Thanks.” he said as I walked away and back downstairs.

  Kyle and Corbin were turned into their werewolf selves. I was shocked. CJ was changed too, she looked smaller then the guys. Corbin changed when he seen me.

  “Its been along time since I changed.” he said rubbing his hand down his arms. I informed them that Zander was a werewolf too.

  “He is? How?” Kyle asked.

  “You should know, you turned Matt into one, remember?” I said.

  “Oh yeah, where you were pregnant with April.” he said finally remembering.

  CJ morphed back into a human. “I’m hungry.” she blurted out. Kyle turned and looked at her.

  “Me too.” Corbin said. The werewolves were hungry.

  “There is a store about 5 blocks that way.” I said pointed to the store.

  “Is it still there?” CJ asked.

  “Yeah, I seen it as we passed by.” Kyle said. “Ok who has money?” he said digging in his jean pockets.

  “I do.” I handed them some money. CJ and Kyle went to the store. Corbin and I held each other.

  “The feels wonderful, to finally be able to be with you without any limitations.” Corbin said.

  We kissed and just held each other. “Who’s son is that kid upstairs?” he asked.

  “Travis’s grandson Zander. He inherited the werewolf gene from Matt.” I pulled away and looked around at the pictures on the mantel.

  “Who are these people?” Corbin asked.

  “Well, that is April when she married James. That is Travis and his family. That is Zander’s dad when he was a baby.” I said pointed at the pictures.

  “Your lucky, you got to have children. I never had any.” he said picking up the picture of April and Travis when they were babies.

  “Yeah, but I never really seen them grow. Victor turned me and I just stayed back and let them grow up with out me. I wish I could do it all over again.” I said.

  “Really?” Corbin said.

  “Yeah, Why?” he sat the picture down.

  “What if things could be changed, how far would you go back?” he asked.

  “High School.” I said, studying his expression.

  “Really?” he smiled.

  “Yeah. I know I shouldn’t be like that because I loved my children. But That’s when things went wrong.” I walked over to the couch.

  An hour later Kyle and CJ ran inside the house. “It started!!” they yelled.

  “What started?” Corbin yelled.

  “The war! Its coming this way!” CJ yelled.

  “Shit, you 4 shift and We need to make it to the hide out!” I yelled. We ran out the back door. I could hear the fighting. I ran as fast as I could to the hide out.

  We finally made it there. “Stephen! Gabe!” I yelled. The war didn’t reach there yet. They came running out to me.

  “What the hell!” Gabe yelled.

  “The war started! We need to get armed!” I growled and ran up to the weapons room, I found my guns. I slide into my leather suit and armed myself including a silver sword. I walked out of the weapons room and met huge werewolf eyes.

  “Lets go!” I yelled.

  We headed back towards the big house. The fighting was gruesome and bodies of humans to vampires alike were spewed everywhere.

  “OH NO!” Corbin said pointing to the big house, the whole structure was engulfed in flames. That’s where we got involved in the fight. Two very big vampires ran for us.

  I pulled out my guns and began firing on them, but they were still advancing. I pulled out my sword and took one swipe and decapitated one of them. The other blind sided me and grabbed me by the throat and carried me a good distance. He turned me around so I could see what was going on. All I seen was there 3 long metal rods sticking out from a wall. He threw me on them.
