Oh, Mother Moon. Oh Moon. Oh shit.
Rafe found us today. Aiden and me. He did his usual talking-big thing, trying to scare Aiden off, and he said a lot of really terrible things, and I left. I told him I wouldn't let him get hurt because of me. Because Rafe was ready to hurt him, and I had to get out of there before Rafe could do something stupid and put Aiden in more danger --
I didn't get to tell him. I didn't get the chance. We were talking, and -- I was about to, and then he said something that made me think he might not take it well at all, and then I cut myself and he could have seen but I think I managed to hide it and just as I was trying to decide if I should tell him or not, Rafe found us and --
I can't stop thinking: I didn't tell him. Not what we really are; not what they're really capable of. And nobody's seen Rafe, and I can't find Aiden, and ...
Aunt Astrid saw us, too. I was stupid. She reminded me that it never works with humans. Never. I have to fix this. I have to fix this somehow. I have to find Aiden and warn him, get him out of here before he can get badly hurt. I have to go find Rafe and deal with him. I have to do something, and all I want to do is curl up in my room and howl.
