Chapter 13
I rushed down the steps and speed walked into the kitchen. I swiftly grabbed an apple and Tyler's car
keys.
"In a hurry?" Katy skips on the clean white tile.
"Ya, I called the dance studio and asked if I could use one of the practice rooms before the classes
start." I bit the sweet red fruit.
Yesterday I called the studio and asked if I could borrow a room while there were no classes. The
doctor said I could use a distraction and dancing seems to take away my stress.
Katy's eyes traveled to my hand and her eyes widened. "Tyler let you use his baby!" She whisper-
yelled.
"No... so don't tell him, he's working in his office for the whole day so he won't find out." I shrug.
Katy started to chuckle. "Okay, just don't hurt his baby." She emphasizes baby.
I raise an eyebrow at her then check the time on my phone. "I'll be back in two hours"
I bit my apple again and walked out the front door, I pulled out the car keys and clicked the unlock
button. "His baby, it's a car," I mutter.
I climbed in the front seat and started the engine, my foot pushed down on the pedal and the car was
off.
I drove down the main road until I came to the small shopping center with the dance studio. I parked
the car and made my way to the front doors. I walked in and went straight to the front desk with the
cranky old lady.
"Hi, ma'am I called yesterday about using a practice room."
She looked up at me and sighed. "Katy isn't with you right?"
"No..."
"Okay, then you can go on back, the first class starts at four." She pointed her finger down the long
hallway.
I smiled and made my way to the same practice room I was in with Katy. I took my phone out and
connected it to the wireless speakers in the room. I set my songs to shuffle and just messed around. As
I danced I let my thoughts run free.
Suddenly I spun to the door and there was a group of girls about my age standing watching me. I
stopped immediately.
"They told me this room was open till four," I explained.
"Oh no, we aren't using this room we're next door. We saw you dancing and wanted to watch, your
amazing." The girl in the middle of the group gushed.
"Well thanks, I'm Annalee but I go by Anna."
"We know who you are, we watched your routine to You and Me by Disclosure for an example in class."
They watched my routine... as an example. People really think I'm that good? I giant smile stretched
across my face, this really made my day.
"Could you maybe do it for us?" A girl in the back squeaks.
"Sure why not!"
I scroll on my phone down to the song and hit play. I scurry across the floor and get into position. This
is one of my favorite routines, I'll never forget it. The girls entered the room and sat against the wall.
As I danced across the wood floor I forgot all about my gift and the people that are looking for me, I
forgot about Raf and my dad. I felt free.
The music stopped and I finished off in my ending position. I turned to the girls and they all started
clapping.
"Your way better in live action!"
"We better go before Madame Stahl gets angry, thanks for showing us your routine." The girls stand up.
"No problem, thanks for watching." I thank them and wave as they go back to their class. I picked up
my phone from the floor and checked the time. It's 3:55 I might as well go. I collected my things and left
the practice room.
On my way out I waved to the old lady at the front desk and headed to Tyler's car. As soon as I got
outside I looked up and saw a police officer on the phone writing a ticket.
"Hey hey stop!" I ran to him and tapped on his shoulder. "What's with the ticket?"
"Ma'am you parked in a handicap parking space and there is no disabled parking permit displayed."
The officer barked at me.
Crap! I didn't even notice that it was a handicap space!
"Look I'm so so sorry, I didn't notice," I beg.
The officer sighed and slapped the ticket in the hood of Tyler's car. "Just be careful next time, I could
have got you towed." He warned.
"Thank you so much! I will!" I call to him as he gets back in his cop car.
I grab the ticket off the hood and scan it. 260$! I'm dead, I stole his car and got him a ticket! At least he
didn't tow me... Or else I don't even know what would happen.
I took the ticket and climbed in the car. I really don't want to tell Tyler, what if he breaks things again. I
don't think he would be more worried about the money than his baby.
I drove back to the pack house with my nerves on edge. I pulled up to the house and got out of the car.
My feet slowly tapped against the cement as I tried to waste time and think. I quietly peeled the front
door open and peeked through, it's clear. I crept into the kitchen and leaned against the counter, how
do I hide a ticket?
"Anna, your back." Katy sighed completely relieved.
"Ya... So?" I mutter trying to act normal.
"Someone called Tyler and said that they had you in their sight, that they saw you dancing in the
studio. They told him that you weren't coming home." She panicked.
Someone was watching me! Oh, goddess that's just creepy as hell. But why didn't they attack me?
"Where's Tyler?" I breathe out.
"He went out with a bunch of guards to find you. I'm going to let him know that your back." Katy left and
rushed to Tyler's office to call him.
Someone was watching me and I didn't even know... They must have followed me to the studio. How
did I not notice?
All I wanted was Tyler to tell me it's alright, I want him to remind me that he's protecting me. I should
have told him I was going to the studio. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
"I called him and he's on his way back," Katy assured me.
"I got a ticket," I mutter, but my mind is somewhere else.
"How?"
"I didn't notice it was a handicap spot, I didn't notice someone following me."
Katy's face softened and she pulled me into a hug. "Anna it's fine, you're so distracted with all this
Lycan business, I wouldn't notice either."
Suddenly the front door bursts open and Katy pulls away. Tyler rushes to me and pulls me into him, his
strong arms wrap around me and I've never felt safer.
"Anna please stop scaring me." He begs as he breathes in my scent.

After my nice hot shower, I pulled on my robe and crawled into my bed covers. I turned on the TV and
the bride show I watched in the doctor's office was on. I relaxed as I let all the stress of today seep out
of my bones. Tyler had to catch up on the work that he missed to come find me, so I had some alone
time.
My phone beeped on the side table and I picked it up reading the text.
