The day the wait began

As Tabitha showed no signs of wanting a conversation with Silas, the ride to Sarafina's place was quiet and boring.

Silas desired to talk with Tabitha, but he seemed to be her foe at the moment.

After helping Tabitha with her luggage and bags into Sarafina's house, Silas stood, resting against his car. He didn't want to leave yet, even though Tabitha had left him to settle in Sarafina's house.

Silas felt devastated that Tabitha hated conversing with him. How difficult could it be to say 'Bye,' even if he wasn't accepting the moment as the end of their time together?

Upset, Silas wished he could go into the house, grab Tabitha, and tell her everything – why he seemed so suspicious. He'd take her to his family and explain that he was the future Alpha, sharing how and why he was a werewolf and why he was so obsessed with her, but Tabitha wouldn't believe him.
