I FOLD THE shirt in my hand with ease before taking a look at my mom who was folding a pair of my jeans.
"I'm going to really miss you, mom." I whisper as I walk over to hug her after she had finished helping me pack my bags.
Tears streamed down my eyes as I tightened my grip. All these years we wasted. We were fighting, fighting all the time. I took her for granted and now our time was limited.

My father was downstairs trying to entertain the guards and among them was Lexis.
Rule 45: We must welcome members of the supernatural into our homes without hesitation.
Just imagining the mystery named Lexis sitting in my living room brought strange chills to my body.
My mom kissed my forehead as she sighs. "Lexis' pack allows visitors, so be expecting us." My mother says while trying her best to make light of the situation.
"Jordie! They need you downstairs. We have things to discuss." My father calls from downstairs.

I wore a simple sweater with my favorite jeans and flats. I nodded at my reflection before heading out my door and down the stairs.
My breath hitched as I entered our living room. All the guards were in their usual stance but Lexis was sitting down. His eyes were fixated on me so intensely. His stare gave me goosebumps and I tried my hardest to ignore the sensation.
