I guess it makes sense that it’s my stress levels, every time the spells happen there’s some major thing happening. Granted, I’m not sure when my stress levels were ever at a normal degree lately.
Liam goes on, “Okay, Hazel. Explain.” I know he wants to get this out of the way. See what explanation she has for why she did what she did to me. The plan will probably take up much more of our time than this.
Hazel takes a deep breath, “Amy, you know I get feelings and can sense things that most people can’t.” She pauses and I nod. “Well, the night Nick and I got into a fight, not long after I joined you guys on the road. I had finally gotten the sense that you weren’t aware of Nick being a wolf. You were passed out in the hotel room so Nick and I went outside to talk about it. I told him I was going to tell you. I honestly didn’t really think about your father being the problem at the time, I just thought you deserved to know.” She pauses and looks at Nick sadly and he nods, wanting her to continue. “We argued for a while, because he said you wouldn’t allow him to stay and that he had to stay because you needed his protection and help. He couldn’t understand it, but he literally couldn’t leave.” Nick interrupts her, “I would get physically ill, if I even considered it. Which with how bad you wanted me to leave you, I had considered it. I thought if it would make it easier for you, if I just left, but I literally couldn’t.”
I look over at Dallas, “Is that how you felt… After I left?” Dallas looks down not wanting to answer. “We were all a wreck after you left, but yes Liam and Dallas took it the hardest. And yes illness was a part of it.” Walker answers for him. I glance at Walker and then back to Dallas, “I’m so sorry.” I whisper and then look up at Liam. “No, none of that. We know you did what you felt you needed to do, and we’ll leave it at that for now. You’re back now, that’s all we’re concerned about right now.” Liam says sternly, still holding his grip tightly on my
waist. I nod and look back at Hazel.
She realizes my cue and continues with her story, “So, I told him I didn’t care, that you still deserved to know and you could decide what to do with the information. But after I said that, I got extremely dizzy. All of the lights on the entire street went out. There was a very angry spirit, that didn’t agree with me. I could feel the anger all around me, I literally almost fainted from it.” She pauses remembering it happening. Nick nods, “I had to catch her to stop her from falling.” He adds, confirming her story.
I look back at Hazel and she’s looking directly into my eyes. “It was your mom, Amy.” I hear a couple gasps, one might have even come from me. My mom angry? I don’t know if I had ever witnessed that. If it’s possible, Both Dallas and Liam hold on to me tighter. “She didn’t want me to tell you. I could almost hear her screaming at me. She wanted me to keep Nick with us at all cost. She didn’t want us unprotected. So, I decided to keep it to myself, knowing if you knew, you’d run. Then, I found a spell with a scent blocker, to keep Nick blocked. Though I didn’t know that the spell had a timeline. I tried to keep up with it the best I could, but he still managed to find us.
Look Amy, I know in the grand scheme of things it might have been easier just to tell you and convince you to stay, but your mom… She knew, that you wouldn’t handle the situation well, so I listened. She didn’t want Nick to leave and Nick physically couldn’t leave. And in my heart of hearts I know you would have ran. You would have ran, right? Hid from us so we couldn’t find you. You would have been all alone, trying to survive your pregnancy or even after, if you managed to survive it without us.”
I just stare at her for a minute, because I already know the answer. I would have one hundred percent ran, without a second thought. If not only to keep my children and I safe, to also keep them safe. If he had a way to find us, they wouldn’t be safe with me either. “Yes.” I whisper, “I would have ran.” I answer looking at my hands. I would have ran and hid, because hiding was the only thing I ever have been able to do to protect myself.

But she’s right I honestly do not think I would have been able to survive, if nothing else, the pregnancy without them. I was barely able to handle the birth and then after my babies would have just sat there while I was passed
out.
