"I hope so as well," Amara said.

"What do you want to do next? I mean, we already watched two movies. If you want to watch more than we can but do you want to do anything else other than that?" Nicolas said.

"I am not sure what I want to do but I don't feel watching TV anymore. I need to discuss what I am going to do next with you. I just can't sit here all day long. I obviously have to work," Amara said.

Nicolas haven't thought about this before. But now that she bought it up, he knew that she should do something by herself.

He was more than ok with providing for her. He has been providing for lots of pack members as well but her thing was different.

The pack members he has been providing for are too small. They can't work on their own and he doesn't want to put pressure on their parents.

Plus, he has been only earning since now. He really doesn't have anywhere else to spend them.

Hence he provides for the little pack members even if they have parents who can comfortably provide for them.

But he had a few rules. After becoming a teenager, the little pack members must get a job.

The goal was to make them feel more independent.

"You are right. What do you want to do? What are your educational qualifications?" He asked because he couldn't decide something without knowing her qualifications.

"I am done with high school. I graduated with a pretty high cgpa which was 3.98. But my attendance were really low and they won't have let me graduate had my grade wasn't this high. I was allowed to only give the exams since I had work to do almost the entire day. But sometimes if I got lucky, I was allowed to visit the school," she took a deep breath.

"I have only been to my school 9 times in my entire life expect exams."

Nicolas was so shocked that he couldn't even hide his expression.

"Shocking,I know. And lots of pack members were also a part of the same school. Which means I was bullied in school as well," Amara said.

She was sounding bitter about everything and she was bitter about it to be honest.

Anyone in her place would be. She was treated poorly her entire life and coming out of it like nothing isn't that easy.

People take years to get over a incident or trauma they got by someone in a week.

Hence, her talking about her traumas the whole day won't be a wrong thing to do.

"Are you angry about it? If yes then don't be. Anger is a punishment you give yourself for others mistake. Don't harm yourself. They are going to die one day anyways," Nicolas said and Amara nodded her head.

"I am not. I just want to be the best version of myself," Amara said.

"And how are you going to be your best version? I mean, what do you see in your best version? Is she a mean girl? If yes then don't be it. You don't have to act tough to be your best version, I promise."

"It's not. Let me tell you my vision of how I want to be. I will walk into a room like I own it. I will say thank you to everyone for the tiniest help. I will thank the waiter/waitress for bringing me food. I will thank the driver for driving me to my destination. I will thank my assistant for bringing me my documents. I will praise everyone for their efforts. I will smile when I want. I will stay true to myself. I don't have to appear mysterious or cold to be unapproachable. I don't have to go around with that cold or powerful aura. I don't have to always stand straight and professional. I will be childish yet mature, just how I am. I will be responsible yet sensitive. I will walk around like a innocent child yet I will be the powerful one. I will own everything. I will become everything I want to be and for that, I don't have to push everyone away. I will be that fragile flower with beautiful thorns. I will be touchable yet untouchable. I will be unstoppable yet free. I don't want someone looking at me and be like ' I want to be her'. No! I want them to say," I want to be my best version, just like she's her best version'."
