Artemis's POV

I saw sound asleep until I felt somebody poking my sides.

I moved the hand away from me.

The hand moved from my side to my center. I shot up and smacked the the hand away.

I was met with a laughing Blake.

"You know there are better ways to wake me up." I pointed out.

"Like what?"

"Yell chocolate chip pancakes then make them for me then watch as I fall asleep again." I smiled.

"Only if I can fall asleep with you." He pulled me into his chest.

"You can't stop being horny can you?"

"Nope."

He leaned in for a kiss but he was cut off my my laptop.

"Oh shoot. My grandparents are face timing me."

I picked up my sports bra and slid on my shirt.

I put my laptop on my lap and hit the green button.

"Hi grandma." I greeted.

"Who's T-shirt are you wearing?" She asked.

I looked down at the shirt. Oops I put on Blake's.

I looked over at Blake by the closet. He was trying really hard to suppress his laugh.

I glared at him.

"Nobody's I just like wearing baggy shirts." That was no lie. They're just so comfortable.

"Right well aside from that, the council I'd getting really impatient. They want to see you in three days."

"Three days? It takes four just to make sure it's safe for us to leave the pack."

"I know but they really need to see you and Blake."

"Grandma we can't just get up and leave. We have a pack to take care of."

"I know sweetie but if you don't go to see them soon they will launch an attack on your pack."

I griped the keys in anger. "I'll be on my way in two hours."

"OK bye sweetie."

I slammed the laptop shut and put it on the side table.

I marched to the closet and grabbed a pair of jeans and a T-shirt.

I was about to enter the bathroom but a pair of arms stopped me.

"Artemis are you sure you want to leave?"

I turned around to face Blake. "I don't have a choice. The council will kill our pack if I don't go."

"Then I'm coming with you."

"Of course you are the council wants to see you too."

He groaned. "Do I have too?"

"Yes now go get ready."

I entered the bathroom and took a quick shower then put on my clothes.

I packed clothes for me and Blake since I don't know how long we'll be over there.

People who visit the council usual stay here for weeks at a time.

I went down to the living room.

"OK so run me through that whole explanation again." Xander said while looking clueless.

Nosh loomed at him weirdly.
