"Claire. Claire, wake up." Claire felt a light gap on her shoulder. She stirred in her sleep, trying to get out of her sleepy state."Claire, wake up. I have great news."Claire wanted to wake up but she was too deep into the sleep to hear properly what the other person was saying.She opened her eyes slowly and was met with Abigail's eyes staring back at her. "Hmm?" She asked as she rubbed the sleep off her eyes.She was shocked to see the day had darkened considerably. How many hours had she slept? She had noideo but judging from the little light which streamed into the room, she guessed it was three hours. Well, that was good. She had not gotten that much sleep for a long period of time.She sat up and squinted her eyes at Abigail. Abigail sat at the edge of the bed and started to spread out the sheet which was wrinkled by Claire's body."You said you have news right?" Claire asked tiredly."Yes. Let's have dinner before I tell you." Abigail said with a twinkle in her eyes.Claire
Claire waited patiently until Abigail was done with her food. She looked at her like she was with her favourite candy. Abigail continued to ignore until she ate the last bit of food on her plate.Claire could no longer wait, she stood up and filled Abigail's cup because she had gotten to know Abigail drinks a lot of water when she eats. She took the plate to the kitchen without waiting for the waiter to come get it.She sat back down, nothing in her way.Abigail smiled at her. "I can see you are really interested in what I have to say." Claire wanted to roll her eyes for the hundredth day that day but she held herself back. "Just tell.me already. I can't wait much longer." She said as she shifted her chair closer to the table, her breasts resting on them.Abigail could see the spark in her eyes. She had kept her waiting for so long it was time to tell her."Bernard knows who took the crystal." She said finally.Claire's eyes widened at that news. A smile broke out on her lips. She w
Alexander continued grunting all the way. For some time the scowl on his face had not left. Aiden who was at the passengers side of the cat knew there was something really wrong.On their way to the pack, Alexander had been so happy about the prospect of meeting Claire again. But as soon as they came o to the packs border, something changed on Alexander.He couldn't ask him because it wasn't the best time to do so. So he just kept mute at the front of the seatThe driver's shoulders were tense as he gripped the Steering wheel hard. He could almost feel the cold atmosphere in the car. But for some reason, Aiden wasn't really scared something had happened to Claire. He trusted Nicklaus to take care of whatever was going on in the pack. Surely he could convince Claire to stay behind until Alexander came. He tried mindlinking him for some time but it wasn't going through. He thought of Mia, he tried doing the same but she blocked him off. What exactly could be wrong? He wanted to know bu
Aiden rushed up to her to get her off the ground. He looked at her. She was like she had suddenly lost her soul. Alexander's expression calmed down when he saw his sister on the floor. He didn't know what to do or say to bring her out of her state. He knew anything he said or do would set her off the edge. Instead of walking over to her, he went and sat on one of the available chairs in the room.When she was done with her sobbing, she raised up her head and looked at Alexander with hatred in her eyes. She looked like she could kill him with it.Alexander waited for her to pass off their mood and when he found out she was done and quite and ready to say what happened, he spoke up. "What happened?" He asked in a calm voice. His wolf was also causing havoc in his head and pacing, giving him a migraine.She sniffed her nose and looked at him. After what he has done, and thinking it through, Mia couldn't blame Alexander. It was not his fault but since Claire had gone, she had been look
This couldn't be good. If she had written to him instead of just waiting for him, that means she was really mad at him like Mia had said.With shaky hands, he opened the letter and found her near and slight slanted handwriting in it.After reading it, he was filled with immense joy. He had no idea she was going through such pain. It was overwhelming.Aiden noticed the change in his expression and guessed the letter must be one bearing bad news to the recipient. He wondered how he was to tell Alexander what he had found out. It was another need. He shifted his feet uncomfortably, chewing the inside of his cheek.It should be now or never. That was what he always told himself when he knew he was about to face the wrath if alexander. He cleared his throat noisily bringing Alexander's attention to him."Do you have something to say?" Alexander asked with a small voice.He tried to hide the guito from his voice but it was so thick it changed his accent.Aiden looked at Mia and she was as
Isabelle knew it was all too good to be true. The way he approached her and she should have made her run for it when she could.If only she knew he was only trying to get the truth from her and all his facade was fake.But now it was too late and she could hardly do anything as Alexander's eyes were very intimidating and she tried her best to avoid his deadly glares as they were good in keeping her in place.“You know, I don’t like repeating the same thing more than once, twice is always an exception, else the person is now going to regret it. So, you can make a decision now.” Alexander said, paying his face closer to hers.Isabelle could already feel his hot breath on her face.“I don’t have anything to say to you. Just let me go, I didn’t do anything to her. You have no right to accuse me of such. She was my friend so I can’t do anything to her. Stop asking me questions I don’t have an answer to.” She said, trying to push him away so she can unpin herself from the wall but to no ava
A Aeeting has been called with urgency to request that all the members of the council be in attendance.Alexander sent out the invitation and kept a strict time to it so they would all be there on time.That was not how the meetings went. Normally the council invitation was usually sent weeks before the actual day but this was the same day the meeting was to be held.But no one would dare to question the actions of the Alpha if they still wanted their heads by their neck.They only had less than an hour to get to the pack house else they would get on Alexander's bad side.In the meeting hall, Alpha Alexander called for a meeting so they would be able to discuss with all the members of the council because he was not happy about the disappearance of his Claire.“So you all are here and no one has found out about the whereabouts of Claire? Do you guys think I’m joking!?” Alexander yelled out, causing the room to be silent.If a pin dropped it would be heard.“You know she stands here and
“Let’s stop here please. I'm tired so we can continue tomorrow.” Khloe said in a very tiring voice.“Stop this joke now, it’s not the right time for something like this.” Benard said resting his back on a tree as they all concentrated their attention on Khloe.“Can we just go back now? It’s getting late and it’s not like we know where exactly we are heading.” Khloe said with a distressed look on her face.She took a break and sat down on a rock delaying the search.“What? We can’t stop now, stop talking like that. You are fully aware that we in fact have to get going,this is not a time for us to be taking rests.” Abigail said, although she was very tired.She was not going to agree to whatever Khloe was insinuating.They just could not go back now. They just didn’t have the time. They were supposed to just continue journeying even if it was very dark out.They only had limited time left and they needed to make sure they used it very well so they would be able to go back soon.There wa
