Yairi POV
I was so upset I lost my necklace, my mother allowed Andrew to hurt me. We no longer have a home I cant believe I got Yanin dragged into this. We haven't said a word since we ran out of the house. Why were those two so fixed on our pendants to begin with? I start to feel woozy and ask Yanin to pull over. We pulled into a gas station and walk inside. I grab a bottle of water and some snacks. I walk around the store waiting for Yanin and keep getting stared at. I am starting to feel uncomfortable as Yanin comes out of the restroom. Her eyes go wide and she runs to me pushing me toward the door.
"Are you feeling ok?" she asked.
"I'm perfectly fine, why?" I ask.
"Your eyes are glowing" she whispers.
I hand her my items and run to the car slightly embarrassed. I look at my reflection and my eyes are burning red. I pull my eyelids down and stare at myself. What the heck is going on? I jump in the Jeep and continue to look at my eyes. Yanin runs out of the store, throws the stuff in the backseat, and starts to pump gas.
I can tell she is uncomfortable looking around at everything passing. Her eyes never leaving the road I wonder if she thinks my mom is coming after us. We watch as this black diesel truck pulls in, talk about dream car. A great big man steps out as big as the truck himself. He suddenly turns his head his eyes never leaving Yanin. I turn in my seat to look back at her and I see tears streaming down her face. Her eyes are closed now and I looked back toward the man still frozen in his spot. I reach over her seat and roll down the window and yell out to her.
"Hey love I think pervy has the hots for you" I laugh. She glares at me and turns to look at this man. We both see him take a breath and step back toward his truck. I watch Yanin as she hurries to put the gas nozzle away and jumps in. Pulling out of the parking lot so fast spitting gravel everywhere.
"Whoa slow down, I want to live another night" I scream out.
"I don't know who that guy was but I think he might be working with Andrew" she says while looking in the rearview mirror.
"I don't think that was it Yanin, he was smitten by you" I laugh out.
"This isn't a game Yairi you are not funny. I need you to focus and we need to see what is going on with your eyes" she tells me. I look out the window knowing her words are true. Not willing to accept the truth just yet. Silence fills the car not a word between us.
"Hello little wolf" a calming voice says.
"Huh?" I asked.
"I haven't said anything for 20 minutes" she states.
"You literally just called me little wolf" I spurt out frustrated.
"You need to get some sleep you are starting to hallucinate" she says with a smirk.
I look out the window and again I hear the voice.
"Can you hear me little wolf" the voice says. It's in my head and I can't help but answer back.
"YES, yes I can hear you" I respond.
"You see I told you she could hear us sour puss" she says mid yawn. I can even feel a stretch inside my body that was oddly satisfying.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"My name is Phoenix, I'm your wolf it's been a long time. Since you got to hear my voice but we have been put to sleep to not interact with you or Yanin." she responds.
"Are you Yanin's wolf too" I asked.
"No she has her own but we can connect with both of you. That's why you can hear both voices. She's just mad that you connected first she has to wait." she answers.
I look toward Yanin and smile I knew something was up. I feel sleep creeping in and Phoenix is awesome.
"Get some sleep little wolf tomorrow is a big day" she says. That is the last thing I hear before sleep consumes me.
Yanin POV
We have been driving for hours and I don't know where to go. I hope she didn't see me crying I can't let her see me break. I constantly keep checking the rear view seeing if that guy followed us out of there. Just the way he stared at me I wasn't uncomfortable it was just unexpected. I can't shake the feeling he knows Andrew though. I yelled at her and she has been quiet ever since. Her eyes changed colors again earlier and she just smiled out the window. She is asleep now and I'm starting to get tired to. I see a hotel up ahead and decide to pull in. We don't really have the money for a room but we can park and nap. She is definitely taking the next shift on driving I am pooped. I parked the car next to a black Jeep and turned off the car. I lean back my seat and close my eyes. But his eyes are embedded in my head. I start to hear someone around the car next to me. I decided to take a peak since they were making so much noise. I instantly lay back down it's the guy from the gas station. It's like he knew as soon as I looked at him his body froze. I lay still and close my eyes hoping he thinks I'm asleep. Until I hear a soft tap against my window. I am holding my breath and keeping my eyes closed when I hear him chuckle. I open my eyes and he is staring right at me. He is absolutely gorgeous his tshirt is hugging him in all the right places. A touch of oil on his face makes him seem so masculine and strong. His eyes are what are pulling me to him it's a teal blue. Almost like mine just his are speckled with black and looks like hints of gold. Absolutely mesmerizing and he motions for me to get out. Uncontrollably I need to go to him I get out of the car careful not to wake up Yairi. This isn't a good idea at all but I can't help it.
