It's strange how fast life changes just when you think you have it all figured out. A councilman hands you six werewolves to take care of the boys, and I were doing better now that we had left Grover behind. But I wasn't sure how this new town would work out. I was on Lee, sure that I wanted gauge to come back, but he didn't want Thio. Indiana was hot in August, hotter than any place I had ever lived. It was flat, too. Not a single hill dotted the horizon. There was nothing to break up the monotony of filled and flat grass. I don't think I've ever seen this much corn, Carly complained beside me. If it gets much hotter, will have popcorn. Jed tried to tease, but no one laughed. Then we can rent a movie. It is just too hot toe laugh at your poor attempt at humor, Jed Carly informed him. You have to admit, though, these air kind of cool, huh? He wriggled his eyebrows and held up his small handheld, battery powered fan. It was on Lee, big enough to drive the sweat on your face. Not really keep you cool. We thought they were cute at first, a real laugh, but now they were essential. I think mine's starting to short out, though. Tyson held up his large hands so we could all see that the blades were just barely spinning, Colby laughed. Sucks for you. It's really going to suck for you when I take yours, he growled back. I rolled my eyes and moved out of their way. I don't know how they have the energy to fight, I told Carly. I know if they morph, then they have to deal with all that. For hope they have a heat stroke. She grinned at me but had to jump out of the way quickly when a mass of gray and brown for flu bias, I rolled my eyes and slouched lower in my seat. We were lucky and found an old farmhouse to rent. Within weeks of leaving Grover, I hated to think of the boys being confined by a town. It had been surprisingly easy to decide on the little farming community of Judson, Indiana, as our new home. It was small enough for us to go virtually unnoticed, and the large farmhouse, situated perfectly on the outskirts of town seemed to be designed just for us. I had worried about how we were going to pay for it. At first, Carly offered us the use of what was in her savings account, which would pay for two months. And after that we could decide what to Dio. However, it turned out I had nothing to worry about. Taison thrust a large duffel bag stuffed with crumpled up bills into my arms. Where did you get this? I asked my heart thundering somewhere between my chest and my throat. Jed shrugged his face turning red. Just been saving it. We can't use this. I pushed the bag back at him. His fingers closed firmly over mine. Yes, we can. I don't think your credit card is going to work now. He was right, of course. And in the end it didn't matter how many times I objected. There was no other way and we both knew it. Old man who showed us the house didn't question a thing after we gave him cash for the first three months rent. He didn't care where we got it for that. We were two teens renting a house alone. I thought it was best for Jed and I to go alone to talk to the landlord during the sight of all of us might have changed his mind about taking our money. The only regret I had about leaving Grover was gauge. He wouldn't know where we were now, in case he ever wanted to come back. I had only voiced those concerns out loud to Carly, and she assured me that he would be able to find us if he really wanted to. Even though I knew she was right, it didn't make me feel much better. Maybe it was because I knew he didn't want Thio. I tried not to think of the last time we talked. I had practically thrown myself at him, yet he still walked away. He went toe warn his brother. Carly had said she was right again, of course, but still sighing once more, I turned to watch the two boys snapping at each other. It was easier if I focused on them instead of things I couldn't change. My money's on Taison, Carly mumbled. Or on, I'm murmured back. Suddenly, a low yelp sounded in the air, and I groaned in defeat. Colby came limping back toe lie at my feet. Taison sauntered over on two legs and snatched up his brother's fan. Way to go Taison! Carly cheered. He turned and flashed a wide, boyish smile at us. Willow, I'm hurt that you would bet against me dramatically. He brought one hand up to cover his heart. Oh, please, I scoffed. You never went against Colby.
