"Celena, Celena can you hear me? Open your eyes little lamb, come on" Brett’s frantic voice sounded in my ears. I hated the fear in his voice so I forced my heavy eyes to open and stare at Brett, my mouth working but no sound coming out. I hurt, I hurt all over and I was scared.
"B-Bre" I tried to speak out as a new wave of pain overwhelmed my body.
I screamed
Brett
I heard celena before I saw her. One second I was fighting this huge wolf attacking me and the next I heard a scream and suddenly Celena was in front of me before she was roughly thrown aside by the wolf. I barely registered people yelling as I ran to her. Seeing the bleeding wound on her head immediately. Her eyes were closed and I felt panic well up in me.
"Celena, Celena can you hear me? Open your eyes little lamb, come on" I frantically yelled carrying her and placing her on my lap.
"B-bre" she tried to say my name when she suddenly lurched, her eyes shutting as she screamed
"Natalie!" Max yelled as he came up beside me. "Give her to me, hunter."
"You’re the one who did this" I hissed at him "she’s like this because of you, because she tried to protect me. Her actual brother"
"Enough!!" A voice angrily echoed in the room and I looked to see Jacob, eyes black and staring angrily at us. He growled at us and was about to say something when he was pushed aside.
"She needs help" Ren pushed them all away till she got to us. She inspected Celena and frowned. "The blow to her head is the only thing wrong. But it shouldn’t cause her so much pain" She flinched as Celena screamed again. " If I didn’t know any better I’d say she was..."
"She was what?" Jacob said, kneeling down and intensely staring at Celena.
"Shifting" Ren said and a silence rang over the room.
She’s not young she should’ve already shifted" Max said. No one answered him, I looked away not wanting to irritate him with the answer any further."What did you hunters do to her"
"Now is not the time" Lily said sternly. "Brett take Lily to Miranda, Ren you go with him."
Max didn’t answer and just stared at me, he growled lowly before he turned to Celena and stared at her silently "I thought she was dead" he said "They told me no one survived. I had been at a friend’s house, he’s from another pack so I wasn’t there for the attack. I was five and I found out my whole family was dead." I winced, imagining how hard it must’ve been for him. "If I had thought for just one minute that she might be alive. I would’ve found her" he turned to me "Ethan wouldn’t tell me everything, I want to know about her time with the hunters"
"you really don’t" I answered, imagining how painful it would be for him to hear about what Celena went through
"She’s my-"
"sister, yes I know. That’s exactly why you don’t want to know." I said and "You’ll find out eventually, but it isn’t pretty. And from your reaction previously, I don’t need you wolfing out on us again."
"Brett is right" Lily said as she walked in the room. She turned to max and spoke softly "We’re going to take down the hunters, Max. But we need more information about them. Brett provided us with a lot, but we need your skills. Brett mentioned a computer his dad never let him use, he thinks it has information. We need to get into that."
"hacking isn’t that simple" Max said "there needs to be a lot of factors for me to be able to hack into a computer."
"I’ll tell you everything you need to know" I said "I want them gone just as much as you do"
