Amara's POV

After a week the heat is finally over. It was much easier with Kai for some reason. I move Kai's arm and sneak out of bed, he's been up almost all week only getting an hour of sleep a day practically. I feel horrible to tell you the truth. I jog downstairs and see some pancakes, so I grab a plate and get about 12 of them.

"Well look who's back", Kat said and ran to me and hugged me like a boa constrictor squeezes its prey.

"Calm", I laugh

Kai then jogs down the stairs

"Amara, I need you", he said in a serious tone

I follow him out in the sticky air and into this building that we keep rogues in. Inside was a little girl about 8 years old. She had Cole black hair and bright, dark blue eyes.

"We just found her along the border and dirty and cold", he says

I grab the keys from his hands and open the door. I unhook her from the chains around he feet and I picked her up and we went to the house with Kai trailing behind us.

I take her in the hall basement downstairs and help her shower, she stayed quiet the whole time. I gave her one of Kai's t-shirts and it covered her like a dress. I had her brush her teeth and I combed her hair. We headed up the stairs and to the kitchen. She sat on a bar stool.

"What do you want for breakfast", I asked

"Pancakes", she whispered

"You like pancakes", I asked

She nodded, looking down

"Me too", I gasped and a smile started to dance on her lips.

"What's your name sweetheart", I ask

"Charlotte", she muttered

"I love it", I said and put pancakes in front of her, which she gobbled up in almost an instant.

She pushed her plate away and started to yawn

"You want to take a nap", I asked

She nodded

"Follow me"

We headed upstairs and I opened a vacant room and she climbed in bed. I shut the blinds to which the room got dark.

"Goodnight Char"

"Night", she smiled and went under the covers.

I went back to my room and found Kai watching something.

"How is she", he asked

"Good I guess"

"I'm sorry I kept you up all week", I say

"No problem", he smirked and I went under the covers and feel asleep.
