CLARA'S POV"Clara, mi amor? Touche." Grace said as we brought the package inside.It seemed confusing as I was not expecting that Derrick was back already and besides, if any guy was going to get into the dormitory, it had to be him who had been here before. I smiled as I was actually wondering what would be contained inside the package."So, is this where I get to ask if you can see the sender?" I asked Grace."I don't think I can now. My powers, they're just so low grade for now. But I promise that I will try and fix it when I go meet her." Grace said to me."I'll consider a favor for them. But wait, what if this is just a prank by Melissa and her cronies?" I asked now as it struck me that I was still in my enemies territory.It was not so hard to think about that as there was no telling what Melissa could do. The moment I mentioned it, Grace herself looked worried and stepped away from the box which was set on my bed now."Wow, so much for wanting to protect me, soldier." I said a
CLARA'S POVI am stunned now."It did not work." Clover whispered in my ear.What was she saying? Was it not obvious enough that it did not make even one attempt at working?"Clara, I want us to start afresh. A clean slate this time just like when we were kids." Kent said to me.I looked around me as worriedly as possible. I caught sight of Grace and she too was stunned. The entire school was even watching us closely and Kent was still kneeling in front of me. He looked so sincere and upright at this point that I was quite worried about what he would say.This look was the one I was used to on the Kent I knew when I was a child. It was endearing and enticing. I knew within me that if I was not careful enough, I would definitely fall for his misconducts."Oh, isn't that Grace?" Kent said, still on one knee. "Hi, Grace!"He hailed Grace who gulped. She was obviously afraid right now as she slowly put up her hand and waved at him."Hi Kent, I guess?" She muttered."This is bad, Clara." C
CLARA'S POV "We need to get out of here." Grace said to me.Get out of here now things are beginning to get okay? I needed to see how this would all end. There they were, the boy lapping his urine like his life depended on it, the teacher ready to defend and Kent ready to attack."You think you're so untouchable, huh?" The teacher demanded angrily."I never said that I was. Come on and get it, teach!" Kent said to him."You animal. You treat others like they are beneath you when there's no difference in everyone. We bleed the same!" The teacher said,"Point taken." Kent responded."Stop this nonsense right this instant!" The teacher warned Kent."Try and stop me!" Kent said to him challengingly.That was one thing about werewolves and their silly ego. This time, the teacher went on attack as he lunged for Kent who stepped out of his way gracefully.They engaged each other and soon, there was an uproar in the entire locker area. I took a look at the boy who was lapping and right that
CLARA'S POVI had passed out yet again and this time, I wanted nothing but to remain in the dark space of emptiness where I would have full access to Derrick. The last thing I recalled was the sound of his voice in my head and that had been it.I was probably going to die but at the very least, I would die knowing he still cared about me. It was however saddening that I would be unable to clear my father's name just yet and he would probably be disappointed at me.Well, I have not seen him in many long years. He should at the very least be pleased to see me, right?I do not know for how long but I was still there in the dark."Clara.... Clara... Clara..." I heard my name in the empty void.I opened my eyes to the other world and I could see how it was. So serene yet so void. I was looking around for who called me but I could not see whom. In my haze, I was certain I knew that voice but it was not clear to me who it was."Where are you?" I asked about the emptiness."Seek and you shall
GRACE'S POVAs soon as they entered, I quickly grabbed a nearby towel and covered Clara's naked body.No way now would they expect that Clara would go anywhere with them. She was injured and now they are here and coming to take her to the heavens.I rose up quickly on my feet as I stepped forward to glare at them."No. She's going nowhere." I declared to them angrily."Step aside, young one." Their leader said to me,"Only if you're going to leave Clara alone." I responded to them."Don't worry. I'll go with them." Clara said weakly as she was trying to rise up.I could tell she was trying to protect me and avoid issues with them. However, it was my turn to stand up for her."No, Clara. You're wounded and would take your time to heal." I commanded her."Listen, Miss Grace, we respect you but your friend must come with us." The leader insisted."And I just demanded to know where. Where do you want her to go?" I demanded angrily."Actually, she'll find out when she gets there. She'll be
CLARA'S POVWait... Back check, what is happening right now?I have only awoken to chaos all through. First, these nut heads had wanted to take me away and I was actually feeling weak. I laid down after I had seen Grace and was trying to heal. I had not yet even seen what she pulled out of me.The healing was taking its time and then I heard Grace arguing with them. Despite the fact she had no wolf, she stood up for me like it was her own life.I only wished she had already started harnessing her powers and then I would see just how they would try and make her uncomfortable. They were growing wings and it was getting really annoying by the moment.I saw her angry for real and went to get dressed only to come back and find Melissa here defending me.Defending me?Something has gone horribly wrong with that potion and I needed to get to the root of it.Melissa even hugged me and then she expressed her love for me."Love? You, Melissa.... love me?" I asked her."Why, yes. I do love you s
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVI knew instantly that Clara was in trouble when I reached out to her and her voice sounded like she was actually fading away. Her response was not even steady enough and I found it both worrisome and scary.I rose up suddenly."Derrick, do you and the Silver girl share a mind link already?" Philippe asked me."Derrick, answer this and there would be no time. Clara is obviously in trouble." Reid said to me.I knew who to listen to in that instant."I need to go back." I said to them immediately."But your driver is not here until tomorrow." Randall pointed out.And he was right. Absolutely right. I should be returning tomorrow morning but tell me, what difference does it make?"She needs me right now. She's in trouble." I responded."So, there is a mind link possibility between you two then?" Philippe asked me.I frowned. This was not the basic thing right now."It's not about the mind link. I need to save her." I responded.They however did not seem to understand t
ARMAND'S POVI looked at the young man that had come to deliver the message and then at Marcus. What have my people done?"Send for Kruger." I said as I sat down on my bed."Do I bring him here?" The young man asked me.I was angered now at his question. Could he not see the head of Orlando here? What was it going to seem like when the elders found out that I had kept on the head as a trophy in the most despicable manner?"Are you stupid? Have him wait in the throne room." I responded.He bowed his head."My apologies, sire." He said as he turned away."What is the matter, Armand? You certainly do not like the werewolves. Why are you upset that one of their own was killed?" Marcus asked me."You don't get it, do you? He was killed by our kind." I said to him,He still did not seem to understand as he stared confusingly at me."As it should be, right?" He asked me.Damnit! What was so hard to comprehend right now."No, Marcus. He was our spy. Now, I had promised him to turn him and mak
