Chapter 56 Amelia Pov
- Life is full of uncertainties, you never know what is going to happen the next minute. When I first came to Blood Moon Pack, I never knew that I would be more relaxed here than in Indigo Pack where I was constantly belittled, abused, and rejected by the one I thought loved me and betrayed by those I trusted. Here in Blood Moon Pack, I was not all that welcomed but at least I had my best friend here with me and Jackson didn't give me a hard time. Simon and Drake made me feel very comfortable. Those two were like protectors to me, despite Drake being a little distant but whenever I needed him, he was there. Even Jeremy who gave me hostile treatment the first time I came here has changed a lot. He always makes sure that whenever he sees me sad, he tries to cheer me up which I am extremely grateful for.
- Despite not knowing much about him I still feel that his sisters are really lucky to have him as a big brother. He looks like the type that will do anything for the one that he cares about and that is nice. Athena was the only one who was still a mystery to me. The first impression I had of her was trouble and bitchy but instead, that wasn't who she was. Athena was just a young girl who seemed to be going through a very big trauma. I asked Jackson what seemed to be the problem with her but he told me that only Athena was the one who would give me the answer to that, he didn't want to lose her trust by sharing what she tried so hard to bury all these years. He said it wasn't in his place to tell me that but if I was extremely close to Athena, one of these days she would open up to me. But the same girl has been keeping her distance even after she helped me and defended me against Lauren Neville. I was expecting us to go back to the way things were before but she seemed to have other options and she slipped herself into another black hole. When Jackson asked me what secret of Athena's I was hiding, there was no way I was going to tell him, that would mean betraying her trust and I have done that already by viewing her as a monster despite her going all the way to save me from a possible assault and murder.
- If Jackson knew that Athena had been sneaking out by night with Drake, then I am sure he would go livid. My room has the perfect view of the garden and whenever someone walks right through it, I see them. I have been having difficulty sleeping for the past few days, ever since Jackson and I shared that kiss. I have been dreaming about it a lot. I can still feel his lips on mine. I don't know where Athena and Drake normally go to every night but I am sure that they are not dating. The last time I saw Athena scaling over the wall, her palm was bloodied. Maybe they went hunting but the way Athena's eyes were so sad and scared, I knew that it wasn't hunting that they went to nor was it training that they had outside the Palace. I wondered if Athena had killed again, she seemed so confused the longer I stared at her. If I told Jackson what I saw, he would make sure that she wouldn't be out of his sight and no one deserves that. We all deserved our freedom and I am sure Athena is the last person that would want to be caged like an animal. If a mere touch could aggravate her, then what would staying at home every day do to her? It will make her go crazy. I needed to distract Jackson's attention from Athena, I owe that to her and I know that as long as Drake is with her, she wouldn't be impulsive.
