I didn't have time to react to anyhting as a giant fire ball came hurtling towards me and Tatiana, I steped infront of her to protect her. I didn't even think I just reacted and used my wind powers to catch and smother the fire ball. I knew that I could take all the oxygen out of the fire and put it out. That seemed to irritate Tyler, he let out a growl and shifted into his bright red wolf. He was as big as an Alpha, but I could feel heat radiate off of him.

"Is that the best you got? Like seriously, air beats fire." I smirked at him. For some reason I felt extremely cocky and confident about my powers. I loved this feeling, it was exhilerating and made me feel invincable.

"TYLER STOP THIS INSTANT!" Pat yelled a full out order to Tyler and I could feel the power radiate off him. His words seemed to register with Tyler as he shifted back to his human form and put on a pair of basket ball shorts that Cody handed him.

"Sorry, I can be a bit hot headed." Tyler chuckled at his own little joke. "I know you can't control your element yet pup but that doesn't mean you get to make comments like that and not get punnished for it. We will deal with you once we have discussed things with your mate." and with that they walked away.

I was dumbfounded. I didn't know what to think, or say. I just stood there with my mouth hanging open staring at the spot where the three elementals had just walked.

"Umm, Kat what the HELL just happened?" Tatiana finally broke the silence. I snapped out of it and closed my mouth and dropped on to the ground and laid down again, staring at the clouds agian. I wasn't sure what to tell her. To be honest I didn't even understand what had just happened. 

"I think.. umm.. well.." I tried but couldn't find the words to speak. That was a shock, me lost for words. I laugh at that thought. Tatiana just stared at me like I was some kind of freak. I just smiled shaking my head. "We should probably head back to the pack house. I want to see what is happening there. I can just imagine there is going to be a lot of hurt man feelings." I chuckled at my joke while Tatiana just smiled.

We both stripped and shifted, grabbing our clothes in our mouths we took off full speed back to the pack house. Well I wasn't going full speed for Tatiana's sake. I was a lot faster then her so I just followed behind at her speed.

"These wolves are to slow, I need to go for a run where I can really stretch my legs and run to my desired speed." My wolf wined at me.

"Yes I know, and I will try and get you the space to run as fast as you please. But first we need to deal with the ignorance of self centered men. Also known as the other elementals." I laugh at my own little joke inside my head and my wolf laughs with me.

It doesn't take long and we emerge from the bushline into the back yard. There is no one around so we both shift and get dressed. Tatiana grabbed my arm and led me into the kitchen, she stopped at the fridge and got us each a bottle of water and an apple. We headed into the rec room where there were a bunch of people our age playing games of all kinds.

"Hey Kat, glad your feeling better. Thanks for freeing everyone, we all owe you so much. Your the best." Tanner came up and gave me a big hug thanking me. One by one the rest came up and gave me a big hug. Mike, Scott and Colby and even a couple I didn't recognise. They all thanked me wished me the best in my future.

Hanging out was short lived because the twins, Knox and Cruze came in looking for me. "There you are stranger, Alpha Jason and those arrogent elementals are waiting for you in the office." Knox smiles and holds out his hand for me to take.

"Ok boys, lets go. Thank you Tatiana." I turn around and notice Tatiana is staring and Knox and Cruze, I look at the boys and they are the same way. I keep looking between them and I put two and two together. 

"Mate." the twins whisper. Without hesitation they are stalking towards Tatiana and her face goes up in to the biggest smile ever.

"Huh? Tatiana is it true? You have two mates?" Colby questions. I just smile and step out of the way and Tatiana takes the twins and leave the rec room.

"That was... umm.. weird?" Mike questions. Everyone else busts out laughing at his question.

"It isn't common for wolves to be twins but because they both share the same soul, they share the same soulmate." I explained while smiling. I was happy for them all. Tatiana has proven to be a very good friend of mine and the twins were my personal body guards and friends when I first came to stay with Thomas and Shane.

I frowned at the thougth of Shane. The would was still fresh and every time I thought of my brother, Annabel or Savanna it felt like someone rubbing salt over the wound. My eyes prickled with unshed tears. Scott noticed and walked over towards me. I was standing out of the way beside the door so I could let the others pass as they left.

"You ok tiger?" Scott asked quietly. Why he was so quiet I don't know, everyone in the room could hear due to them all being wearwolves, but I was glad he tried to be.

I just nod. "I was thinking about my brother, Synth's old beta killed him, then Alpha Thomas killed the beta." I explained. I didn't even notice that I had started crying until Scott wiped the free falling tears off my cheek. He pulled me into a comforting hug and just held me.

The doors opened again and ended up smacking Scott in the back and pushed me against the wall. They were held open so we were trapped behind them.

"Where is Kat, does any one know?" Thomas asked the room full of kids. I couldn't contain the laugh that came spilling out of me. It was loud, obnoxious and not very lady like. Then to top it all off because we were stuck behind the door I let out a big snort.

The whole room bust into a fit of giggles and snorts to. Even Scott was laughing at me while he held me. The door left Scott's back and we had room to move and there was Thomas with a big grin on his face trying to hold in his laugh. I let go of Scott and he was reluctant but let go of me to, and I jumped into Thomas's arms. Giving him a big hug.

"Kat we have people waiting on you, where did Knox and Cruze go? They were supposed to come get you and right now they are ignoring their mind link." I could tell he was irritated with them, well so much for having fun and laughing.

"The twins found thier mate. Of all people it was Tatiana." I smiled and so did Thomas. "Lets go, I don't want to deal with the elementals but the sooner we get it dealt with the sooner I can go see Cain. Do you know whats going on with him and the doctors?" I asked as Thomas put his arm accross my shoulders and led me out the door.

He sighed, "The doctors are worried because the drugs keeping him in a coma quit working. No one knows how or why they quit working but they did. The doctors are doing any and all tests they can to make sure he is ok. He is fighting them because he wants to be with you but he isn't strong enough to stand on his own just yet. Thats the biggest worry the doctors are having, they don't know why he seems healed  but can't stand." Thomas was a bit worried to, it was evident in his voice. I just nodded the whole walk to the office. 

Thomas knocks on the door and doesn't wait for a reply. He opens the door and pushes me in first. Sure enough Tyler is sitting in one of the two chairs infront of Alpha Jason, while Pat and Cody are sitting on the love seat to the side of the desk. There is another chair behind the desk as well. Thomas walks me to the chair next to Tyler and goes and sits down beside Jason.

"Good now that we are all here..." Jason started talking but Tyler cut him off.

"No. We aren't all here, where is her mate?" he questioned. I shot him a dirty look.

"What does my mate have to do with this?" I asked quite irritated.

"We don't deal with women, and we are NOT about to start just because you are the new air elemental. We will deal with your mate in regards to your training." Tyler stated in a dry, bored tone.

"You know what, you are a pompus, ignorant, self centered...." I kind of ran out of insults so I just compromised, "hot headed, penis head!" I screamed at him, hatred coating every word. I was so angry that I didn't realise there was wind blowing around the room. The power radiating off me was enough to make Tyler flinch away from me.

"You need to calm down, before your power takes full control." Cody spoke with authority. Thats when I realised I was shaking in anger and floating about three feet above the chair.

I closed my eyes and did my deep breathing exerscises. It took a couple minutes but the wind did die down and I had evened out my temper. Gotta love the power of meditation. After a few more minutes of silence to make sure my anger had fully subsided it was Pat that spoke first.

"Your powers are even greater then the last elemental, he was your grandfather wasn't he?" it seemed like he was suprised that I was this strong, my wolf scoffed at his tone, he was defenately impressed.

"No, Chalreston was my great grandfather." I corrected him. I liked the calmess coming from Pat and Cody. It was a calming and peaceful feeling. Kind of like their element. Tyler on the other hand just exuded power and destruction, which is what fire is all about. I guess thats why I always seem to lose control around him.

"I just can't wrap my head around this though. Is there no other men in your family?" Tyler was thinking out loud. You could see the concentration on his face, and he didn't really look at anyone while he spoke.

Just like before my emotions got the best of me and my eyes started tearing up thinking about my brother. Cody sensed this and was instantly at my side with his hand on mine, staring intently into my eyes with a care that I didn't understand.

"Somehting is messed up and your powers are even more out of control then we realised. They are messing with your feelings to. They are intensifying them all a hundred fold." he sounded so sure of him self as he rubbed small circles on the back of my hand, comforting me.

"Maybe, but.." my voice broke, "my brother was killed infront of me not long after I was taken. Its still fresh in my mind and talking about it hurts so much." I broke down and cried. I didn't care if they saw me as weak. I needed to grieve, and at the moment Cody was right, my emotions were all over the place.

Before I knew it, Thomas had picked me up and carried me out of the office and up to a bedroom. His scent was promonent in the room so I figured this was where he has been staying while here. He set me down on the bed and walked around and crawled in beside me. Thomas was another brother in my eyes and he was trying to comfort me. I curled up into a ball and cried, I cried for the loss of my brother, for Cain getting hurt, for me being kidnapped and now having to deal with the elementals.

Thomas just rubbed my arm in a comforting mannor sitting beside me, whispering comforting words about how Shane will be watching over me, how I will always have him to help, how things will work them selves out and the elementals will accept me eventually. Once my crying subsided I just laid there with my knees pulled up to my chest.

"Are you feeling better kitty Kat, did that help to get it all out?" I could feel the care and tenderness in Thomas's words. I smiled and nodded my head. But the comfortable silence was disrupted by my stomach growling at me.

Both Thomas and I started laughing, we laughed until we cried. You know how it goes when one person laughs so hard at another person's laugh then it goes back and forth until you don't even remember what was so funny in the first place? Yeah well thats what we did. We both laughed at eachother for a good five minutes until neither of us could breathe and both of our sides were sore.

After our laughing fit we went down to the kitchen in time to see everyone sitting around the table in the dining hall eating. We went to our seats and sat down, my mouth was watering when I saw the beautiful spread of food. There was steak with fried mushrooms and onions, corn on the cob, cesar salad, some kind of hashbrown casserole, bbq burgers, home made buns and biscuits with butter. My stomach let out an anxious growl at the smell of all this delicious food. I loaded my plate and dug in, I was extremely hungry.

After stuffing my face, I helped the women clean up and do dishes, then went to see if the doctors would let me see Cain. "Hello doctor Swanson." I smiled as I met the man in the hallway.

"Ah hello my dear, how are you feeling?" he was in a good mood. Not stressed like I had assumed he would be.

"I feel great, umm, how is Cain? I heard there were some complications." I asked a little scared as to his response.

"Oh we got things sorted out, he is up and moving around but I am keeping him tonight for observations. You can go see him if you want. I encourage you to stay the night with him as well. Having you near him will speed the last of his healing process." he smiled and waved me off.

I was happy with that thought. Sleeping next to my mate, the man I love with all my heart. I stopped walking, love? Do I love him already? I thought about it for a minute, yes. Yes I do, I love Cain. I smiled and continued to his room. I knock lightly on the door and it opens. I was shocked to say the least. Cain stood there holding the door open with a goofy smile on his face.

"I'm so happy to see you bneautiful. I've missed you." He pulled me into a hug and I felt the sparks tingling through my whole body.

I wrapped my arms up and around his neck as he picked me up. "I missed you so much to baby." I felt the tears stinging my eyes. I willed my self not to cry. Thankfully the tears didn't fall. Cain carried me over to the bed and wrapped my legs around his torso. He sat on the bed with me straddling him. He kissed me with such tenderness and passion that my my body just melted against him.

Our makeout session was hot and heavy. I could feel him harden under me, and I have to admit feeling him respond to me like that got me wet. Cain pulled away and growled at me.

"I can smell your arousal my sweets. If we continue I won't be able to stop my self. I don't want our first time together to be here. It has to be special." awe he was so sweet. I smiled and gave him a quick peck on the lips and wrapped my arms around and rested my head on his shoulder.

"Kat, can I admit something to you?" he seemed a bit uneasy.

"Of course you can hun. You can always talk to me." I kiss his cheek.

"I... that is.. Kat, I love you." he blushed and looked down at the floor. My smile was so big it almost split my face, my heart and head felt like they were flying on cloud nine. I felt warm and fuzzy all over. He loves me! Oh wow he really loves me. I love him to. Oh my god I have to tell him I love him to.

"Cain, I love you to. I always have, I love you so much." his head shot up and we stared into eachothers eyes. His beautiful orange eyes were doing a number on my heart, mind and body. We just stared into each other's eyes getting lost. He leaned in and we started another heated make out session.

His lips caressed mine with such love, while his hands ran every inch of my body. He swiped his tongue accross my bottom lip asking for enterance and I let him in willingly. Our tongues danced with eachother as we explored each other's mouths. Soft moans filled the air, which turned the kiss more heated and desperate. Cain wanted me and I wanted him but the rational side of me kicked in. I pulled away from our wonderful kiss earning a small wimper from Cain.

This man was so adorable and was going to be the death of me! I couldn't stand to see the hurt expression on his face. It hurt me. I smiled and explained, "Our first time will be special hun, not here. We have to stop before we BOTH lose cotrol." He seemed satisfied with my answer because he didn't look as sad.

"I'm tired beautiful, can you lay with me?" he asked as he stretched out his arms and yawned.

"I plan on staying the night hun, the doctor thinks me being with you tonight will ensure that you are fully healed and ready to be realeased tomorrow." I smiled and crawled off his lap. I walked over to the door, closed it tightly and shut off the lights.

Once my eyes adjusted I walked over to the bed and stripped so I was only in my bra and panties. I crawled into bed beside Cain and curled up to him and laid my head on his chest. He kissed the top of my head and covered us both with the blanket.

"Good night baby, I love you." Cain whispered.

"Good night hun, I love you to." I responded.

We shared a quck kiss and he wrapped his arms around my body and I laid back onto his chest and we were both sleeping with in moments. I had a smile on my face as the darkness of sleep took over my whole body. This felt so right.
