Chapter 36 Hazel’s POVI walk quietly into school and sit far behind Logan, and Cassie. We turned in our assignments to our Maths teacher who went on and on about an Algebra exercise. I was inactive in class and couldn't wait for the day to be over. Immediately the bell rang for closing, I bolted out of class. Dodging the usual corridor where I could run into either Logan or Jasper, I sneaked out through the garden. I needed to cool off. I heard footsteps running after me and I groaned when I inhaled his scent. Jasper. Why did they find it hard to leave me alone?" Hazel, wait up." He called and I kept on walking faster. What part of solitude did they not understand? " Hazel, stop running. Wait up." He called and I ignored him. All I ask for is some peace and quietness, nothing more how difficult was that?He caught my arm and I stilled. " What is it?" I asked him harshly as I tried to pry my hand away from his. He held my arm in a firm grip, " I'm sorry for my stupid actions." He
Hazel’s POVWhen we arrive at the seer's place I wonder how this man was going to help me. I wasn't sure if I could call it a house or a shed, but it was made of wood that creaked loudly when I ascended the front porch.I turn and Logan pokes his head outside, giving me a thumbs up. Should that count as a reassurance? The door opened immediately I raised my hand to knock. " Come in." A weird-looking man with shaggy hair whom I guessed was the seer said. I took a second glance at Logan's car before entering the house. It was surprisingly clean, however, ancient furniture adorned the room, tooth of animals were hung in strategic places which caused the hair on my nape to rise. " Please have your seat, Hazel." He motioned to a stool a few feet away, I walked towards it slowly. " You are safe here, Hazel." He said and I plopped on the chair, not wanting to come across as snobbish.How did he know my name? I wondered. Logan might have told him, I concluded. " I came to..."" I can't see
Hazel's POVI left the room quietly and headed upstairs. I was exhausted and I just wanted to take a nap. Logan had dropped me off and had gone out. I walked into my room and flopped on the bed. Lorena was busy with Kaya. This was the perfect time to take a...Knock! Knock! Knock!I groaned in anger as I heard the heavy knocking at my door. Who was it this time?"Come in."The handle turned slowly and another maid walked in timidly. She looked worn out and had bags under her eyes. I could only imagine when she last had a good night's rest."I am sorry to bother you Hazel but Alpha Logan left a message before he stepped out."I rolled my eyes angrily. Why couldn't he just tell me in the car before he left? I looked at the maid and she walked over to me and handed me a folded piece of paper. I took it from her and she immediately took her leave. I could only wish that she was going to get some rest. If anything, she needed it more than I did. She looked a mess.I opened the paper and saw
Lorena's POV"I am so happy for you, Lorena." Hazel said with a big smile on her face. "I know you will do a great job."I was beaming."How was your visit with the seer? Did he say what was wrong with you? Does he know how to fix it?"Hazel was silent and casted a quick glance at Kaya and I immediately knew that she didn't want to talk about it in front of her."Ohhhh. Sure. We can talk later," I said, withdrawing my question."Thanks Lorena. I guess I'll leave you two to work. Bye Kaya.""Bye Hazel," she said with a sweet wave.Soon we were alone again and Kaya was hard at work with her homework. She was a brilliant girl and was just as sweet and well behaved. I could only imagine why her previous nanny chose to neglect her. She was probably just a knock off that got off under the guise of a nanny to infiltrate people's home and steal things.I wanted to ask Kaya about her but she looked so sweet when she was working. It was best not to bother her."Miss Lorena?" she said sweetly. "
Lorena's POVI was holding Kaya and I didn't even notice that she had fallen asleep on my shoulder. I gently laid her on her bed and tucked her in. She needed to rest. She had been through a lot.As I smoothed her clothes and bed covers, she mumbled and stirred sweetly in her sleep. I couldn't help but smile. She was an angel. I still just couldn't understand why her father was so cold to her.I left her room and closed the door lightly behind me. I was due for a good nap; I was exhausted. I walked upstairs and headed to my room. As I opened the door, I gasped in surprise. Hazel was in bed and Logan was by her side, holding her hand. She looked a bit weak and pale but that was all.Logan looked at me and finally left. I made way for him as he walked out of the door. I closed it gently behind him and I was left alone with Hazel."Hazel, are you okay? What happened to you?"I rushed and took up the spot that Logan had left and took Hazel's hand in mine."Hazel, talk to me."I could feel
Chapter 41Lorena's POVI was up early the next day. I had to get Kaya ready for school. Before I slipped out of bed, I stole a glance at Hazel. She had slept peacefully throughout the night. I only hoped that she recovered soon. I was still mesmerized about her tale of the little ghost girl. So many questions, yet no answers to any of themI slipped into the bathroom and had a quick shower and got dressed just as quickly. I was in stealth mode; I didn't want to wake her up. I tip-toed downstairs and immediately began to do my chores, trying my best not to make a ruckus and wake the entire pack house.The sweeping went well and so did the dishes. I also made breakfast for Kaya as I was supposed to get her ready for school today.I looked at the clock and gasped at the time. It was almost 7:30am. Kaya had to be in school by 8am.I hurried to get room to wake her up but as soon as I flung the door open, I was stunned to see her standing infront of the mirror in her uniform. Her hair was
Hazel's POVAfter classes I headed to the library. I had so much school work to cover up as my drama with ghosts and voices had set me behind.I found a quiet place to sit and began to do my homework. The day had been tiring. I had been avoiding Jasper all day. I had become an eel overnight; any time he would try to walk up to me, I'd slip away.I was half way through my work when I felt a vibration in my pocket. I pulled out my phone and the screen lit up; it was a text from Logan."I'm in front of the school. Where are you?"I sighed and closed my book. I was a little nervous. Logan was taking me to see the seer and I still hadn't found out what Chelsea wanted me to do.I packed up my books and left the library but not before checking to see if the coast was clear. I didn't want to bump into Jasper again. It was hard enough that he liked me and I was mated to Logan. I just didn't want things to get complicated and weird between us.I tip-toed quickly down the hallway and soon the ex
Lorena's POVI stared at Hazel, waiting for her to get her composure. Finally, she did and she got a chair and sat next to me."What is going on Lorena? How? When?"I took a deep breath and faced her."I was cleaning and then I followed Kaya to school. While I was there, I got a text from. Marcus."I suddenly saw Hazel's face twist in disgust."Marcus? What does he want?""He...wanted to... well... talk."Hazel looked at me suspiciously and I immediately knew that that was my cue to keep talking."He texted that he wanted to see me and that it was important, so I told the driver to drop me infront of Willis' Coffee shop and I went to see him."Now Hazel was glaring angrily at me."Is this what I think this is?"I however, ignore her and continued to tell my little story."We talked and he said he wanted me back again but I told him I wasn't interested. He swore that he had changed but luckily, his lies didn't stay hidden for long and I walked out of there."The tension on Hazel's face
