AMERICA DAVIESFear gripped me by the throat as the whole thing unfolded before my eyes. Just how terrible of a person had I become and how many more people would I hurt?"I really am a monster.""No you are not!" She squeezed my arm. "I want you to just quietly watch this okay?" I turned to her with teary eyes and nodded silently. There I was, holding Cara in my arms when she was only months old. I remembered it all like it happened just yesterday. She stared into my eyes with so much adoration and I knew how special she was. She wasn't like her siblings, she always wanted to be by my side twenty four seven, unlike Dara and Lara who always wanted to be outdoors, playing with other kids. "He was there with you that day when you sat outside your porch with Cara in your arms, he recorded the whole thing because he believed it was so beautiful." Celestia explained. The flash drive was filled with hundreds, if not thousands of videos and pictures of me when I was pregnant and after I
TRAVIS SKYWolfsbane, if only he had spoken up quickly. Why would he even keep such a thing to himself? He knew how dangerous it was to him but he remained quiet. "What are we going to do Travis?" Alaric questioned."He has too much wolfsbane in his system and it is killing him slowly, we need to start treating him right away." "Nothing is going to happen to him right?" Celestia asked as she held my hand. I gave her a reassuring smile. "Of course, he is a part of our pack and we wolves stick together, we are a family." I responded as I took her hand in mine and gave it a gentle squeeze. America had remained motionless since they arrived, it was evident that a lot was going through her mind at the moment. She was probably blaming herself for it. "How did it happen?" I turned to face Alaric."Darby… Darby has been seeing this rogue for a while now and he apparently had been disturbing her about being introduced to us. Dylan of course didn't trust him so he attempted to get close to
AMERICA DAVIES"Where is Travis?" Celestia asked.I locked the door behind me and dropped every window blind. "I think there is a rogue on our tail and he wants to handle it alone." "Will he be okay?" "He is the alpha, he will be fine." I forced a smile on my face. I was more worried than she was but I didn't want to show it."I have given Dylan some sedatives for the pain which will also help him sleep better." "Already?" "Yeah." She forced a smile. "What about the kids?" I asked as I walked towards the couch to sit down."For the first time ever, I sent them to their grandmother's place at the best time." She expressed with a chuckle. "Oh I see." I smiled. "I think you better call her to let her know that--" the sudden sound of a gunshot echoed through the compound and I felt my heart seize. "No!!!" Travis' voice rang through our ears and we both ran to the door. "Someone has been shot!" Celestia stated. "Wait, let us see through the window if it is any safer for us out th
TRAVIS SKY"Where are they? Where are they?!" She yelled loudly as she ran to me. She grabbed me by the collar. "Where are my children Travis?!" She yelled out with teary eyes."I don't exactly know! Okay! But I know they are alive and I met Cara." "What?" "I remember her from all the pictures you showed me. She is even more beautiful in person. I made sure to keep her safe and I will do it all over again." "Where was she? Is she okay? Where did you meet her?" "I don't know. I was knocked out and I woke up tied with an ox rope to a chair. Remember when I told you I had my encounter with the rope too? I broke out of it with a strength I did not know I had but she was the reason, I wanted to protect her. That was what was strong enough to cut the ox rope, my love for her, our children." She fell to her knees and began sobbing. Both Alaric and Celestia looked at me confusedly but probably also felt like I was not a true friend. Knowing that much and keeping it to myself. I bent to
AMERICA DAVIESThe thought of another enemy on our tail was very scary. We had more than enough people to deal with already. "What are we going to do now?" Celestia questioned."Things are going to change and get a lot harder for us, especially after you almost killed your wife today Travis." Alaric pointed out. "I think you should have been more gentle with her instead of acting all crazy in front of her friends or whoever they might have been." Celestia said. "I don't mean to be rude though.""No I understand your point, I know I shouldn't have acted like that but I was really angry and I let it get the best of me. But the good part is we found out a crucially important information." Travis spoke up."We need to be extra careful from now on and always watch each other's backs." "Exactly. I guess we have to lay low for now, though Darla said that none of their boys are watching us anymore and I believe her words but I don't trust her mother, I believe she knows she gave birth to a
TRAVIS SKYFor the past few days, it had been oddly peaceful and quiet around the house. Darla didn't talk to me since the last incident and I couldn't blame her.She made meals like a normal wife would, she comes to my room without saying a word to me then picks up my dirty laundry to do them. She never disturbed me with any complaint on my recent activities or bombarded me with questions on days that I stayed out a little later or didn't even go home until the next morning.I was starting to freak out so I decided to seek advice from someone more experienced than me."What do you think she is trying to pull off? I'm getting really scared just sleeping in the house lately." "Hmm…" Alaric placed a curious hand on his chin. "From my experience, she wants you to apologize to her in a grand way that will definitely make her heart flutter and probably, if possibly, bring tears from her eyes." "What? There is no way I'm going to try to make that witch's heart flutter, I'm not asking you
AMERICA DAVIES'What have I done? Why did I ever trust Kurt in the first place? Could what Travis said about me be true? Am I really a thoughtless person who waits for others to fill her mind with lies? What is wrong with me?'"America…" Celestia called out as she walked towards my bed and sat next to me. "You have been crying here for hours, you locked yourself at home for three days straight! When will you gather yourself together?" "I have lost everything! Celestia, everything that I have ever lost!" I exclaimed as I sat up in bed. I couldn't control my emotions anymore, I couldn't even control anything about myself anymore."And who says that it has to be lost forever? You can still find it if only you work hard and act strong!""But I can't! You saw his reaction that day, he is never coming back to me." "Listen doll, Travis is a lot more complicated than you think. He has changed from the man you used to know. Eight long years, we all know he secretly waited for you and prayed
TRAVIS SKYThe one person I had been trying so hard to rid my mind of her thought was standing right in front of me. At first I was surprised at what she was doing at my parents' place, but then I reminded myself that I wasn't supposed to care about what ever it is she might do unless it physically involved me."Travis?" I heard my mom ask from the living room.She opened her mouth like she was about to speak but I shoved past her and went inside. She could choke on what ever it is she wanted to say for all I care."Mom… it's been…" "Forever. Come here." She stretched her arms towards me.I went to her and wrapped her in a warm embrace. I had so much missed being in the arms of my mom. I felt tears build up in my eyes as my mind reflected on how stupid I had been. Turning my back against my own family for a woman that didn't think twice before fleeing from me again."It feels so nice to finally see you and hug you in my arms. I feel like I have been waiting since forever!" Mom excla
