13 Chapter Thirteen

~Carolina's POV~ (this is Carolina's point of view during chapter twelve)

I stretch my arms as I sit up in my bed. The sun shining a beautiful golden glow around my room. It made Maple's hair look darker and shinier. I liked how it played around on her hair like that. She was pale with black hair. Kinda like Snow white, not that i'd ever result to something as low as that. I smile at Maple trying to decide if I should wake her up. Just than her shoulders start moving and her raven black hair falls down into her face. She yawns and I look away. I didn't want her to know that I had been looking at her. (She thought it was a rude thing to do) As she sits up I can't help but take a peak. I don't know how she looks so pretty, prettier than my mom and she's a fae (She is naturally beautiful.) He lashes are long and black against her green eyes. She reminded me of a fae glamour where mommy made a beautiful green, white, and black dress on me I was really pretty.

"Oh! morning Car, I didn't know you were awake." She said happily, it was an invitation to look at her so I did. A smile greeted me as my eyes landed on her.

"Yah I just woke up and was waiting for you." I say smiling, Maples smile was contagious.

"Have you seen the sunset?" she asked me. Maple was feisty like me and she was kinda bold. Maybe she had to be bold when the take over happened, but that just made her better. We both were four years old but I was a few months older. She had two older siblings that were twins and a pain in the butt. (her words not mine) she has her wolf now instead of having it when she turned seven. (when you have two alpha parents you get it at five, when you have only one alpha parent you get it at six, and when you have no alpha parents you may get it from seven to 18. If you don't get it at eighteen than you won't be getting it. I only have one alpha parent as my mom is a fae, so I will be getting it at 6 if I get it at all.) I really want my wolf now but I will have to settle with human and magic. (little magic) I realize that Maple's hand was waving in front of my face. I refocus my eyes and watch her hand.

"Sorry I didn't mean to lose focus." I say to her face. She smiles and shakes her head at my answer. She grabs my hand tugging me along and off the bed to the kitchen.

"I can walk myself you know!" I call to here as she continued to drag me.

"I know but you're too slow!" she shoots back and then dashes through the hall probably waking up the residents in their rooms. I smile at her recklessness and join in. I start calling out to her all the way to the kitchen. I notice my dad looked out of his room and I smile and wave at him. My arm snapping quickly to my side at the speed we were going. We reach the kitchen with sugar in the air. We giggle and quickly sit at the island ready for whatever Darian is cooking.

"What's Darian making?" Maple whispers to me her warm breath in my ear. I shiver and answer her with an "I don't know".

"It doesn't matter I could eat a whole buffalo with chickens and yogurt and I'd still be hungry." She says with a fake whine, werewolves are always hungry and Maple probably wasn't exaggerating.

"Yah, I could eat a hundred pancakes and still want more" I join in with her.

"Not if you have my banana, cinnamon, caramel, filled crepes with whipped cream and strawberries on top." Darian said handing both of us plates just as Chris walked in. He says hi to Maple and hugs me before sitting across from us. Chris smiles when he sees what's on our plates and claps his friend Darian on the back.

"Darian you made my favorite, thanks bro" he said with laughter and sarcasm dripping through the cracks of his fake bravado.

"Yah, yah get over it, ego head. This is your sisters favorite." Chris mocks horror gasping and clutching his heart. I laugh at my brothers display and mock him.

"Oh yes, you big ago head will get to big if you continue to blow it up" I went with the words I knew I wasn't going to mess up on for greater effect. I act posh and roll my eyes at his affronted stare.

"Wow man, even your baby sister thinks you have a big ego" Darian laughs as he quickly gets out of Chris's line of shot. I on the other hand use it to my advantage and whack him on the head.

"I'm NOT a "Baby"" I growl mock and defiance all over my words. Chris chortals at the blond haired boy as Darian looks at me horrified, trying to mend his words as to not anger me. Maple was just watching calmly creating a very scary sight as no one wants to see a powerful wolf calm and collected. We all look at her as she clears her throat.

"Darian if you are to mock Chris about his ego than you may want to get yours in check first." It was said calmly that it took a min to register into any of our brains. Than all of a sudden Maple jumped up grabbed my hand and raced to the door. She did this right when realization came over the boys and they went wild. MY friend, my four year old friend said something to arouse such reactions. I was laughing hard as we made our way outside to the porch swing. I could here dad come into the kitchen and I quickly shushed Maple.
