Linger (chapters 31-41)

I have finished the book but there are to many chapters to do all the blogs so I am going to combine them all into one and just put the most important stuff into this one blog.

So starting off when Grace and Sam arrive at the recording studio, Sam has the time of his life. He cannot believe that he is actually doing this. But when he walks through the halls of different bands, he sees Cole in his band NARKOTIKA. He has no idea what to do with that. Then, at the same time Isabel meets up with Cole and she catches him trying to shift and stay wolf. When Isabel sees how hopeless he is, she tries to offer her hand at friendship. Which I think Cole really needs. While they are out, Cole reveals that he in fact was on drugs while they try to figure out why they really shift. While they are out, three teenage girls come up and recognize Cole for who he really is, Cole St. Clair. Cole is anxious because he does not know how to tell Isabel, but he does not really have to because she just doesn't care.

When Grace and Sam get home, Cole is there and him and Grace finally get to meet. Cole likes her right of the bat. While they clean the house, Grace is still sick, and she notices that she is supposed to be home now. When she gets home her parents are there and they freak out on her, but she fights back. Saying that they aren't really her parents and they cannot tell her what to do anymore. But they play the your not 18 yet card and she has to listen to them. That is when Grace decides to run away and live with Sam. So she sneaks out and never looks back.http://www.helpyourteens.com/teen_runaways.php

Sam has a realization that he actually missed the wolves. He did not miss being a wolf but he just missed the wolves in general. I think that was a stepping stone for Sam because it made him realize that being with the pack was his true family. Grace arrives at Sam and they both pretend everything is ok but they know, deep down, that it is just the opposite. Grace's parents find out that she left and her best friend Rachel tries to cover for her, she feels that it is not right for Grace to be running away and I agree with her, but i can get why Grace ran away. Her parents really do not care for her, at least they do not show it.

After that Grace and Sam arrive back at the house and see Cole talking to Tom Culpeper. He is Isabel's dad and is the one who went on a wolf shooting rampage in the first book Shiver and shot Sam. Turns out he killed another wolf, Victor, and he gives a warning to Sam saying he has to stop "feeding these things" and that he will shoot "every single wolf I can get in my sights." Cole and Sam dig up his grave.
