Jade's pov:
I had never seen Alex fight. Training sessions hardly counted seeing as he was never truly serious. During the vampire attack in which my powers had awakened, I had not been focusing on him… My loss, I know!
And this time was no better. I would not be able to lend a helping hand, or support him in any way, much less observe him fight.
As the only daughter of two proud warriors, there was so much for me to learn still… and boy how much a part of me wished he’d be the one teaching me!
After he announced that there was a rogue attack, and left to fend the intruders off, not before telling me to stay put, I remained in bed, thinking, fretting, worrying about him, and everyone I knew.
A pity-party and ten minutes later, I carefully left the bed, and headed straight to the bath
