Book 1 : Chapter 61 Mistakes Galore

November 14th

When we got back to the Loren household only Mateo, Xander, Bella and Lia were in.

"Where the fuck is everyone?" Leo asked Mateo.

"Well, Elena is out with Maria... again. She's barely been in lately. Marco and Carlos are probably smoking weed somewhere. Mom and Dad went to the store with Lisa and Lenny and I believe that's everyone," Mateo explained, "but Lia wants to see Haden later."

"Does Elena not need more time to recover?" Leo asked. "The girl nearly died a week ago."

"Try telling her that," Mateo laughed, "her and Maria have taken up a sudden love for running."

Of course, I knew exactly what Maria and Elena were doing in the woods: filling in where Leo had failed by attempting to train some of the pack women in fighting and defence skills.

"I'll take Lia to visit Haden," Leo offered, "I have to go and check on him later anyway to ensure he is being kept weak enough."

Half an hour later, we were heading towards the base in Leo's car.
