*Soleil*
"Those fucking must killed my best friend". I hiss i to the phone.

"Your friend ? What are you talking about sweetie ?" Gudrun answers in the other end.

"That is why my mom called for me to come home. Davina was found killed this Morning and I Got a message from her at half past two last Night. It Can only be those hamram from the forest". I pace back and forth.

"Oh I am so Sorry". Gudrun goes quiet for a moment. "Sol we don't know that they did it. It could be a totally unrelated crime. We have to look into it first. It is not likely that they could link you to Davina, when they can't smell you, not unless..". She goes quiet.

"Unless it is someone I know". My voice is laced with anger. Gudrun had just confirmed my own fear, and now it's clear to me. "That is why it didn't attack me. It recognised me and they went for Davina instead".

"Sol that's..".

"Yes it makes perfect sense. That is why I live in a dead zone. All the vaetter has ran away because of those hamrams; you said that yourself". I continue. "So they must me here in town. We'll have to search for them tonight".

"We can't just wander the streets looking for hamrams". Gudrun say terrified. "Wait for me to get to Siri and talk this through, okay ?"

But I am not really listening. My dissabillitating sorrow has been replaced by targets revenge. Even if I have sworn to both Tjalfe and Siri to control my emotions, I am happy for the anger that now curses through me.

"I'll find them with or without Your help". I say through gritted teeth, then I hang up and run out into the garden.

"Tjalfe". I Call out. "Tjalfe come forth, I need you".

A big cloud pulls in over the house and the wind start ripping in the trees. I laugh triumphant and throws my arms into the air to make the wind pick up, but it isn't complying. Instead it dies down to a calm breeze, playing with my hair.

"I told you, no going on power blenders after that show in Scotland". Angrily I turn towards the voice, seeing Tjalfe perged on the edge of the flowerbed.

"They killed Davina. If you know anything about this I want to hear it now". I sner at him.

"You can't attack all three of them, they would gut you like a baby seal on the spot". He say with a shrug.

"I am not alone, I got you by my side".

"Oh no, I am not being a part of this vendetta. Look at yourself ! You are ready to charge into town knocking down the first person you see no question asked. You'll just end up getting yourself killed and who will find Davina's killer then ?"

"Are you really going to let me down now ? I am ready to give my life to the calling, but the hell I will accept my friends taking the punishment for my choices. They should have stopped it". I halfway scream.

"They who ?"

"I don't give a flying fart who they are, the ones in charge. I just know that Davina is gone and whoever did it will pay dearly". The words emit a pressure wave of feelings from me and he flinches.

"Sol there is nothing I want more than help you". He says softly. "You are my kin. I Can feel how devastated you are and I will be with you through everything, no matter what. But this is not just about you and Your revenge. We both work for the same cause, so of course we are going to find out who did this, but we need to do it calmly and the right way. Let Your sisters help you. Work with them and do it by the book". Tjalfe gets up, looking towards the driveway with his brow furrowed. "Please remember, not everything is black and white. Not everything bad is caused by the obvious enemy. There are much worse things out there".

"Again with the black and white bullshit. What does it mean ?"

"You will find out soon if you keep Your mind open. But I gotta go, someone is coming". And in a blink he is gone.

In the same moment I hear steps coming around the house and I look up in surprise when Zac comes around the corner. "I am so sorry Sol. I just heard it and hurried over her. I..".

Our eyes lock and my inside explodes. His eyes ! No it can't be the truth. The realisation almost knocks the legs from under me. "It was you".

"Oh shit". He whispers. "I shouldn't have come here".

"It was you". I ball up my fists. "You killed Davina". Furiously I take a step towards him.

"What ? No ! You don't understand". Zac steps back deprecatingly. "Stop for a moment here, okay ?"

I stop, glaring at him bitterly.

"Sol please listen to me". He starts.

"What for ? So you can try and convince that it was pure accident that Davina was murdered the day you realised what I am ?" I ask.

"Yes for God's sake. I was looked inside a shack all night after we left. I only came out this morning". His eyes so full of pain. "Sol when I saw you I got so scared. I couldn't let them hurt you".

"I am very much capable of defending myself". I shoot back.

"I couldn't take that chance, don't you see that ?" He shakes his head disheartened. "If you just knew how much I have had to fight my father, all of them actually".

Tears raise up in my eyes. I focus every fiber in my body on not breaking down and my shoulders are shaking as I fight the sobs to no avail.

Instinctively Zac takes a step forward, reaching out for me to comfort me, but the repellent look on my face stops him.

"They forbade me to see you when they realised the depth of my feelings for you. I didn't know why. I only found out last month that I.. it sounds so crazy me being a werewolf right ?" He is stumbling over the words trying to explain. "I just couldn't stay away or stop thinking about you, hope that there was some way for us to be..".

".. to be together ?" My voice breaks. The doubt is sneaking up on me and in this moment I so want to believe him. "But you killed that man, all of you".

"How do you know that.. wait, all of us ?" He looks confused.

"Yesterday, in the forest. I saw him".

"I don't really remember the details before I saw you to well". His eyes are shifting as he search for the words. "We were on the way to lock me in the shack yesterday, when we caught the scent of another wolf. Is that who you mean ? He wasn't a human, I mean before after he died". He explains nervously.

Was it true ? Could the dead man be the fourth hamram from Gudrun's vision ? A feeling that something is very wrong knots up my i side, blowing at the anger.

"My uncles told me that we tried getting him to the shack, so he wouldn't hurt anyone. He didn't want to come and he attacked Jonas. He was the one attacking, not us". He say.

"It doesn't make a difference". I close my eyes for a moment. Everything Siri has told of my family, blows away my doubt and I realise that no matter what he says it won't change anything.

"It was Your grandfather". I am glaring at him, when the truth hits. "He killed my Great grandmother. My family has suffered ever since".

*Zac*

"Is that what they have told you ?". I growl. "It was the other way around. He didn't know she was a witch. He came to talk to his fiance, to tell her that they could make it no matter what. He never saw her before the other witch was in his face. She attacked him and he had to defend himself. That was when he found out he wasn't bound by the moon to change". I am spitting out the words. The anger is pulsing through me and the wolf is trying to break loose.

"Your eyes, they are green". Soleil pulls away scared, holding her hands protectively in front of her.

I look at her in horror. Does she really think I am going to attack her ? Doesn't she know that I would never hurt her in any way ? Slowly I breathe in deeply, then blow out, until I am in full control. I open my eyes, harnishing my emotions before I continue. "My grandfather spend the rest of his life running. Me and my family has spend our lives fleeing those damned witches. So don't come here and tell me that Your family has suffered". My voice is shaking.

She is shaking her head. "It's a lie".

  The harsh tone of her voice surprises me and I push my own outrage away. I Can feel where this is going, at it makes me even more desperate to make her understand.

"Sol, when I heard what happened to Davina I came here immediately, even if I knew I was taking a big personal risk". I say earnestly. "No matter what happens or what we are, I choose you".

She doesn't answer me, she just stand there staring and my stomach knots up. That her eyes can hold so much anger and that it is directed at me, it is more than I can take.

"Sol !" I beg desperately. "It is me. I am still Zac. Every time I change I get more and more control over... it. Yesterday when I saw you I got so much control that I remember the rest of the night. My father and uncles has full control over their changes. They go out to the big forests in Scotland and Wales to hunt for a while and then they come back to live normally for months. I am close to be able to do that too, do you get that ?"

Her face loses some of the hardness and the doubt shines from her beautiful sky blue eyes. My inside is in turmoil and I have to ball up my hands, and focus not to run to her and take her in my arms. I am desperately to find the words that will make her let go of the last pieces of hate.

"You will end up killing someone. Maybe not today or in the nearest future, but one day you will kill someone and I can't risk that". The conflict is painted in her every feature. "We can't risk that you kill a human, don't you get that ?"

"It is already to late". I say looking down, I refuse to lie to her. "I fucked up badly and I killed a man".

The hope that had made her lower her shoulders dies away as I see the words sinking into her and her body tenses up. Tears well up in my eyes as I meet her gaze and know that there is nothing I can do.

"Then I have no choice at all". She whispers.

I look down, blinking away the tears.

"Don't you get that I don't have a choice ? You are a hamram. It is my duty to stop you". She yells desperately.

"There is always a choice Sol". I look up, meeting her harsh gaze.

Everything I have fought for has no meaning now. It had been foolish of me to believe we could work. If I can't forgive myself for what I did, how did I ever think she could ?

As tears starts streaming down my face I turn and walk away. Before I turn around the corner, I turn one last time, looking at her. Please give me a small sign, a bit of hope..

Nothing. There was no doubt left in her stance and no sparkle in her eyes. Those eyes that had smiles at me so lovingly, now only holds contempt and disgust.

"I love you". I whisper and walk away.
