Intended Series Collection: Books 1-6 by Abigail Grant (most important books to read TXT) 📕

softly, as if talking to a scared cat that will run away at any second. “I am, as long as you’re ready to tell me.”

“Are you sure, though? Kass, it’s a big deal and it could make you think differently about how you feel about our friendship.”

She looks at me with disbelief. “I’ve told you, nothing you say will ever make me not want to be your sister. Come on, El. I’m ready.”

I take another deep breath and before I can change my mind, I begin blurting it all out. “Okay, then. Since I was a little girl, I’ve had visions that make me black out and I see things before they happen, and I can even change them. Well, I just barely found out that apparently there are a lot of other people in the world like me. We are called Seers and I guess when one of us turns eighteen, they can start training to run super-fast, like Edward-from-Twilight-fast, and hear things that people are whispering from over a hundred yards away. It also turns out that my mother was a part of some family that used to live around here that are like me and they are all dead for some reason that I don’t know about yet. Gavin’s family are all Seers, and they have missions, or assignments where they protect people from freaking demons, Kass! Like, literally hell demons! They can fight really well and are insanely creepy. And now I’m going to be training to be a real Seer and kill things. It’s all really ridiculous and terrifying, but true, and I don’t know what to do or how to feel about any of it.” I talk so fast that I have to breathe heavily while I wait for her reaction. I’m fairly sure she missed everything I said because she doesn’t immediately get up and run away from her lunatic best friend.

Kassy just watches me for a moment, not saying anything. I start to imagine all of the worst things that could be going on in her mind right now. Is she going to scream, hit me, faint or call an ambulance? “Kassy, I’m so, so sorry if I scared you or if you don’t believe me…”

She cuts me off before I can finish apologizing. “I knew it,” is all she says.

I lean back, not understanding her. “You knew what exactly?” I ask.

“I totally knew you could see the future, El,” she says calmly.

I sit with my mouth open as she explains. “I mean, I couldn’t be certain, but I just had this feeling that you had some sort of gift, when you saved me from that jerk, Noah, in the tenth grade. El, he had me alone in his car in a dark parking lot. Not one person even knew that I was out with him and you still found me, when I was sure he would end up scarring me for life and there was no hope of stopping him.” Her eyes start to water at the horrible memory of almost being raped.

I grab her hand as she continues. “I couldn’t figure out how you were able to save me. But when I laid awake that night, too scared to sleep, I thought about the other times you were there for me when tragedy was about to strike. You came out of nowhere and grabbed me when I started to fall off the roof at the fireworks show when we were eight. Then, that time we were swimming at Baker beach during the seventh-grade field trip, a wave went over my head and I couldn’t figure out which way was up to take a breath. I was so scared and sure I would drown, but there you were again, pulling me out.”

I am in shock over what she is telling me. “You knew? Just because of those times I was there for you?”

She shrugs. “Well, I actually had a few theories. For a minute, I thought maybe you were my guardian angel, but I figured that was too far-fetched, considering you fell off the trampoline in my backyard and broke your leg when we were seven.” She laughs softly. “It wasn’t until my eccentric aunt Sarah took me to that bogus fortune teller just after my sixteenth birthday that I figured it out. She told me she could see my future and I just knew that’s what it had to be.” She smiles and jabs a finger at me. “And I guess I was right.”

I just shake my head, completely at a loss for words. I can’t believe she has known for over two years that I can see the future and I had no clue. I let out an exasperated dry laugh at the craziness of this ridiculous situation. “Some gift, huh? I can’t even keep it secret.”

She chuckles along with me, her long hair flipping behind her back as she ruffles it up with her fingers. “Yeah, but even though I was pretty sure I knew about your secret, I had no clue about all that other stuff you said before.” She speaks with confidence but her expression is soft. She looks up at her forehead as her brain mulls over this new information, and her face becomes worried again. “Um, I really hope I heard you wrong when you mentioned something about demons and if not, please start from the beginning and tell me everything you know because I’m officially kinda freaked.”

My face falls along with hers. “All right, I guess I’ll just tell you everything that has happened since we moved here.”

I take a steadying breath and begin relaying everything that has happened since arriving in Oregon. I mention how my visions have become clearer and more frequent, describing in detail the visions I've had about her in the past week. I tell her about the guy dressed in all black who kept saving me and turned out to be Gavin. About his family and the little bits that
