Forbidden Love || Theo RaekenWords: 6697

Mason, Corey, Liam and I are in the library discussing on how to keep Gwen safe because obviously she doesn't believe me on the Ghost Riders. I wouldn't blame her either but It's my job to keep her safe.

"Until we find a safe place for Gwen, we need to know her location at all times." Liam says and everyone nods their head.

"Okay, that's great while we're at school, but what happens after that? She could go anywhere." Mason says.

"Daisy, could ask her." Corey says shrugging his shoulders.

Then that's when something came up to my head. I got an invitation to Nathan's party. Gwen was obviously gonna be there asking people about her sister.

"We don't have too. I know where she'll be tonight." I say pulling out my phone and showing them the invitation. "Nathan's party. I mean, she's been asking everybody in school about Phoebe. I'm sure she'll do it tonight.But the problem is that we can't keep her safe at Nathan's place. We need a place where supernaturals can't get it."

"I know a place. The safest place." Mason says with the biggest grin.

This is gonna be bad.

•••

Yup, It was right totally bad. Mason decided to host Nathan's party at my Mom's house. He ordered alcohol and party decorations. This was a really bad idea.

Nathan's guest started arriving at my moms house. There was a lot of people. I ran over as I saw that the picture frame of Scott, my mom and I took when I was 8 about to fall. Luckily i caught it. And I sighed.

"Scott told us to protect Gwen. So putting her in a house lined with Mountain Ash is a good plan." Mason says as he pours a line of Mountain ash on the entrance door.

"Okay.." I say.

"Have fun! It's a party." Mason says as he grabs both my shoulders.

"I have to take care of Gwen and know her ever move." I say.

"She's in the kitchen. You can keep an eye on her while your dancing. Come on." Mason says as he pulls me over to the crowd that's dancing in the middle of the living room.

"Mason.." I whined as he dragged me closer to the crowd.

"Here." Mason says giving me a cup of alcohol.

"You know I can't get drunk, right?" I say giving Mason a grin.

"Seriously?!" Mason asked.

"Yeah, it has something to do with healing." I say shrugging my shoulders.

"Well, then just drink it." Mason says chuckling.

"Are you sure your not poisoning me?" I tease Mason and his eyes go wide. "I'm kidding!"

I drink the cup and feel the music thru my veins. I start dancing by myself. Mason went over to dance with Corey. Some random guy came up to me and started dancing with me. I still kept my eye on Gwen she was asking people in the kitchen about her sister.

I went to get a refill on my alcohol even tho it doesn't affect me. I came back and danced more. I felt a pair of arms wrap around behind my waist I quickly turned around and saw Liam.

I raised an eyebrow at him and he removed his hands off my waist.

"You know alcohol doesn't work on us right?" Liam said pointing at the cup in my hand.

"Yeah, but it's better to pretend it does something." I say shrugging my shoulders still dancing to the music.

"It's not that bad." Liam says as he comes closer to me and wraps his hands around my waist.

I smile and push his hands away from my body.

"Nope." I say with a smirk.

"Oh- come on." Liam says with a pout face.

I look over to the Kitchen and see that Gwen isn't there. I quickly spot her moving upstairs.

"I've got to go." I told Liam and put the cup down walking up the stairs.

Gwen went into my room, she was just sitting on the bed looking out the window. Then I heard thunder. I look away for two seconds literally and Gwen races out the room screaming. She runs down the stairs and I chase after her. She makes her way over to Liam and yanks his arm.

"What's wrong!?" Liam asks with the screaming Gwen is giving.

"I saw him. He's right there." Gwen says pointing at the stair case I turn to look but there's nothing. "Don't you see it? Help me please!"

Gwen goes running towards the kitchen .

"Gwen!! Hold on!" I yell and she stops.

Then the room fills with screams I turn my head and there's a ghost rider. Visible.

"Everyone out!!" Corey yelled and everyone yelled and screamed running out.

The ghost rider comes waking slowly towards Gwen and I's direction. I stand in front of Gwen to protect her. Mason grabs onto My hand and I drag Gwen with me. Mason brings us into the kitchen and drags a line of Mountain ash on the border of the Kitchen so the ghost rider can't get through.

The ghost rider tries to get through but it doesn't work.  The ghost rider takes out a whip from his belt loop and whips in on the Mountain Ash barrier.

"We can't let him get through!" Liam yelled to Corey.

Liam grabs a lamp from the coffee table and shatters it on the ghost rider. The Ghost rider didn't bug a little and whipped the Mountain Ash barrier again.

"Guys he's breaking through." Mason yelled.

"Get her out of here! I'll stay here." I told Mason signaling to the back door of the kitchen.

Mason nodded and took Gwen. Two minutes later they came back.

"There's one outside too." Mason said.

Gwen got to close to the barrier and the Ghost Rider got through and whipped up her leg. I held onto her hand.

"Help me!" Gwen pleaded. I held onto her as strong as I could.

"Freeze!" I heard Parrish say from the front door. The ghost rider stopped pulling in Gwen's leg. "Let her go!"

"Shot him Parrish!" Liam told Parrish.

"Everyone down, now!" Parrish yelled I covered both Gwen and Mason with my body and Parrish shot the Ghost Rider which did absolutely nothing.

"On your knees!" Parrish yelled as the Ghost Rider came closer to him. "On your knees!"

The Ghost Rider disappeared with the wind in a matter of seconds.

•••

Scott came home later that night and he was quite upset to find the house all messed up.

"You said to find a safe place." Liam said trying to find an excuse. "So we brought the party here."

"Who said to throw a party at all?" Scott said with a hint of disappointment.

"At least we saved Gwen." I said as I shrugged my shoulders.

"But you guys saw one of the Ghost Riders." Scott said.

"Corey made them visible so we could fight him." Liam explained.

"All right, but doesn't the book say that if you see the wild hunt you'll be taken too?" Scott asked his eyes full of worry.

"Everyone at the party saw him. Does that mean that..." Liam said as he caught on.

"They're all gonna be taken. I should have been here." Scott said.

I understood how he was feeling. He's going trying to find some kid named "Stiles" I don't even know if that's a real person. And yet he has to come home to a messed up house. Liam helped to clean the house up before my mom came. Scott was disappointed. I wouldn't have to be a werewolf to tell.
