Riley Swan has no idea what was coming for her in this new town with her sister, she just knew that Bella has made a promise to protect her, and then they ended up surrounded by the supernatural...
When arriving back home with her dad, she was hurt to see only a note written from Bella, that was simply stating that she went to Italy.
Which caused Charlie to sigh before he kissed Riley's head and he left to go to bed, Riley wasn't as easy though as her brain shifted to panicking, wondering where her sister was and why.
What if the red-head got to her?
Riley paced back and forth lightly as she waited for her cousin to arrive around midnight, her cousin usually snuck over as she was a night owl, and Riley was usually overwhelmed with something.
The window to Riley's bedroom slid open and Riley sent a soft smile when she saw her cousin climb in, almost tripping over but catching herself.
"What did Bella do now?" Athena questions with a small sigh, closing the window behind her.
"Can you use the link to find or see her?" Riley quizzed, Athena seemed to contemplate about it before she billed out the old journal that had linked her cousins a few days prior.
"Yes, but I can't promise that it won't sting" Athena winced at the idea of her cousin getting hurt, before gesturing for Riley to sit down on the bed. "Maybe you should call one of the dog boys and get them over here, preferably Jacob cause he also has a connection with Bella"
"Alright" Riley nodded slowly, before searching up Jake's name in her phone and pressing dial, and it began ringing for a while.
"Riles?" Jake answered in a confused tone, and Riley sighed before she sent her cousin a look for dropping something by accident. "What's going on? It's late..."
"Jake, I need a favour that I need you not to tell anyone about"

Athena paved in front of Riley slowly, analysing everything on the two pages as she hadn't tried a 'spell' that complicated before, Riley had just been nibbling on her lip as she played with her fingers.
The window swung open for the second time that night and Athena glared at Jake, "she told you not to tell anyone!"
"Paul, this is Athena" Jake ignored the girl as he introduced his 'brother' to the angry girl.
"Athena" Riley said softly, causing something to spread through Paul as he heard her voice. "It doesn't matter, we should get started"
Athena then nodded with determination before she glanced at the two boys, "I'll need you to hold her down"
"Hold her down?" Paul questioned gruffly, hating the idea of having to pin his imprint down.
"The process will hurt at the beginning" Athena quickly explained, before her eyes met Riley's. "Don't fight it"
Riley nodded before she laid back on her bed upside down, giving the two shifters a look, which caused them to get on each side of her, holding her shoulders gently, Jake grabbed Riley's hand just in case.
