Chapter 10

There’s mud and blood all over her face and clothes and I can feel myself freaking out inside. I slowly open the window and she just stares at me with her brown orbs. “Spencer…” she whispers.

I look over my shoulder at Zane. “I’ll be back later.”

Zane shakes her head. “Dan is going to rip me a new one if your gone. Who is she?” she questions flawing her nose.

“her scent smells weird, familiar.”

“She a friend. Ill be back later.” I climb out the window and interlock my hand with Ashley’s as we jump off the house. We run until we hit the lake and then we just stop and stare at each other.

“Ashley…” I say as I rip the bottom of my shirt and dip it into the lake. I slowly clean off her bloody face as she stares at me. “How did you find us?”

“I…. I….” she stammers out stopping my hand from moving. “I find it easy to track you. Your smell.”

Oh.

“Does your whole family find it easy to track me?” I ask continuing my cleaning.

“No. They smell that you are you but your scent dies off fast. Especially in a car.” She says closing her eyes.

“Aiden.” I whisper as I clean across her lips.

“Badly injured. Your dad….” She pauses. “fought extremely hard.”

My eyes started to water.

“Aiden passed out after he… killed him.” She shook her head. “I’m sorry Spencer.”

Bitch being nice again. I don’t like it.

“He wanted you. He kept on yelling that your scent was all over Zace. That you had something to do with her turning on them. He wouldn’t listen to anything I said. He just kept on trying to get your dad.”

I finished cleaning her face and I dropped the shard of clothing on the floor. I shook my head and slowly moved my hand up and down her arm trying to comfort her.

I pulled her into me but she tensed up and pushed me away. She held her stomach and shook her head. I looked down and notice that the blood on her shirt was still fresh.

“Ashley.” I whisper moving closer to her again. “let me see.”
