Fractured (Josie) novel Chapter 124

Chapter 0124

Chapter 98

** Josie’s POV **

When Freya pulls up outside my family home I feel disappointed. I had secretly hoped they’d be here waiting for me and come running out the moment we pulled into the driveway.

“Shit, I don’t have my key,” I curse.

“Okay then teen wolf, now what?” Freya asks.

“I’m serious, Freya, and I’m going to prove it all to you just as soon as we are out of the public view. I promise I’m not like my mum,” I smile reassuringly before getting out of the car. I run around the back of the house with Freya on my heel and I stop at the kitchen window. I focus on the old window lock and lift it from the hook using telekinesis, grinning at Freya’s shocked expression when the window pops open.

“Holy shit balls!” she gasps. I climb through the window and search the junk drawer for the spare back door key, to open the door and let Freya in.

“Okay, great, our first problem is solved, now what?” she asks as she walks into the house. “Now, I find some clothes that actually fit me, work out a way to get to my mum and pray my bonds show up before the next wave of my heat does?” I grin sarcastically.

“So I believe you have these magical powers after that little display, but I’m really struggling with this heat thing and five super hot boyfriends that all just share you without fighting,” she frowns.

“How is that the hardest part of all this to believe?” I laugh.

“Because men don’t share well,” she shrugs.

“Mine do, plus they’re raised this way. It’s normal for them. They work together to make sure my every need is met. I can’t wait for you to see them,” I smile fondly thinking of my bonds.

“So which one is your favourite?” she asks, following me to my bedroom.

“I don’t have a favourite,” I shrug.

“Do you love them?” she raises a brow.

“Yes,” I say without hesitation. “So much,”

“Then let’s get you back to them,” she nods.

Chapter 0124

I shower and change into some clothes that I’d left here whilst Freya books two train tickets, the next train isn’t until tomorrow so we spend the night catching up. She tells me about her new job and a girl she’s been dating. I feel awful when she explains everything she has done to try and find me and apologise for not contacting her.

When I finally fall asleep I dream of darkness. I’m lost there, in the nothing. I hear my name being called but no matter how far I run I can never find the voice. I wake breathless and in a cold sweat. Freya still sleeps peacefully so I spend the next few hours looking out of the window, waiting to see my bonds, but they don’t come.

We leave early the next morning, grabbing breakfast on our way to the train station. I’m going to have to find a way to pay Freya back for the tickets and food, I have some cash that I’d kept at home for emergencies but it’s not going to last very long. I left a note in my house for the guys letting them know where to find me in case they turn up there but with every hour that passes, I become more worried. They should have been here by now. Luke should have come for me. Something isn’t right. I keep thinking back to what I’d heard the Greys saying, that the realms are completely cut off from each other. I can’t accept that, I just can’t, my bonds will find a way to get to me. They have to, because I’m not sure I can live here without them. I’m not supposed to be here, I’m supposed to be with them. Home is wherever they are.
