Blair

"You want me to walk Kade to school?"

"Please don't talk with your mouth full." Mum scolds me. "But yes."

"Isn't the school like two hundred feet from here. You could watch him from the window."

"I could, but the entrance is around the other side."

"I'm not allowed to leave the house unless I'm being watched."

"Okay." I agree, only so I can try and find out what is going on with the little brat.

Kade stares at me as he pulls his bag onto his back and even without my Lycan I can see that he hates the idea.

"Whatever."

We leave the house and immediately he kicks over one of mum's plants. Stamping it into the ground.

"You say you are not a baby but you are certainly acting like one."

"Fuck off!" He glares at me and even I'm shocked. He turns eight tomorrow, not eighteen... "Are you serious right now?" I fold my arms across my chest and he copies me.
