Chapter 15

• Time had started to drag on and for whatever reason, we had switched topics and my parents death was being questioned. I was doing okay for the most part. "Did you wanna tell me what happened?" Tamara asks gently. I look over at Bekah, she has a sad smile on her face. "We were going on a family trip up to our cottage in Kirkland. I loved it up there, I miss it. My friends when I was real little used to think such a small town with so little people couldn't be anything fun but it was. And it was beautiful. A home away from home," I smile.
• "I was fourteen when they passed. Ace, my brother was a year older. We had a great relationship back then, we were very close." I can't help but frown. I miss my brother.
• "It was my twelfth birthday when I was able to shift. Ace had gotten me a beautiful, bright white necklace shaped as a single snowflake, as a birthday gift. He told me he had saved up two months worth of allowance so he could get it. He knew how much I loved winter." I say, a rather sad laugh escaping me.
