Chapter 10

Capturing Him

Waking up a second time in Seth’s bed was actually more comfortable than I wanted to admit. The bed was nice and soft with warm, fluffy blankets and the noise was absolutely not there. In the dorms you get used to the noise, but Seth’s house was completely silent. You could even hear the water as it lapped on the shore outside his window. Seth must have chosen the room to remind him of home. It was peaceful in Seth’s room. I lifted my head and looked around. It was actually quieter than the night before since I woke up alone in his bed. It was strange that Seth was up since it couldn’t be much past seven in the morning with the sun just rising.

Slowly, I stood and stretched before walking to the window. Seth was outside in the crisp fall air stretching with his brothers. They actually looked like they just finished their run. All three Sangre boys were early risers.

As Seth bent down, Ty’s voice carried over him while he talked.

“Then she knows the truth now?” Ty asked.

Seth nodded his head as he replied. I couldn’t hear him as he had his back to the window. He was speaking as the other two guys watched him.

“We can finally go home?” Dee asked. Seth said something that Dee wasn’t happy with.

“Then we just take her with us,” Dee replied. Dee pointed up to the house, but not at me hiding just inside the window.

Seth turned a bit and I could finally hear him also.

“We can’t take her back with us to our time without knowing what she’s supposed to do,” Seth answered.

“We take her back and figure it out,” Dee added. “We go home.”

“No. We have no idea what her connection is to the past. What if it was something from our enemies? You know my father wouldn’t hesitate to kill her or send body parts back to their king.” Seth replied. Seth never said he was worried I’d be an enemy. And his father didn’t sound like a nice person.

“If she’s from the goddess, as you say, then the goddess just whisks her back here if she gets in danger. It isn’t a problem.” Dee sat down to finish stretching. “Why are you hesitating to bring her back with us?”

I never considered that going back with Seth was an option. Here I was all worried about keeping Seth here, but Dee was right. I should be able to go back with them.

“She’s never traveled in time before, and I won’t take that risk with her. She stays here, and we find out how she can help us. Stop asking to go home until we figure this out,” Seth ordered Dee like a general would, before turning to come inside. His military upbringing seeped through when he scolded Dee.

“You know, since she knows nothing about our time, and can’t look it up either, and you refuse to let her go to the past with us, isn’t this an easy case to figure out what needs to be done?” Dee called to Seth.
