Alessia's POVI thought I looked funny in the yellow dress my mum had me wear, but it's nothing compared to how funny Patrick looked in his yellow suit. What the hell? Not the both of us being a look alike to SpongeBob. I wanted to burst into a fit of laughter and had to hold onto my dress to prevent myself from choking. Allen in his usual crazy self couldn't hold back his laughter and had to run back upstairs to have a fill. I wish I could be him at this point. I managed to say a brief hello to Patrick's parents. They had left a seat for me next to him. I let out a light chortle when I sat down. "Don't you dare laugh." He whispered, holding back himself. "I almost thought you were replicating McDonald's yellow." This time the both of us didn't hold back, laughing like maniacs. "You both can keep up with your jokes after dinner, silly." Ryan joked, staring at us like a proud parent. His words made me remember the situation I was in. My bubble deflated almost immediately. I realiz
Alessia's POVI woke up to the sound of my door being knocked on loudly. Taking my time to open my eyes, I yawned and stretched to my heart content. It's been so long I got to sleep like a baby, my night was blissful. I was about to head to the door with my happy mood before remembering that I have to look sad as much as I can. They need to believe I am heartbroken. Putting on my saddest face, I opened the door. Snorting when it turned out to be just Allen and Cara. This family don't care too much about me. I would have expected to see my mum, Phil and uncle begging me with a platter of food like the one in Cara's hands. Lest I forget, I didn't eat much at dinner last night. I am famished. "Are you really heartbroken or this is just a facade?" Cara asked, carrying the tray dutifully further into the room. I locked the door with the key first before doing a crazy dance that had Allen rolling on the floor with laughter. Cara had a confused look on her face. "Did you both plan this?"
Collin's POV"If you keep calling me out this way, my brother might see me as an enemy." I told Tephanie handing her the smoothie I bought for her. She let out a snort, mouthing a thank you. "He should go fuck himself then, if he can't trust either of us.""Wow, we shouldn't lose our tempers now. Relax please." I cautionedI had received a call Tephanie this morning that she would like for us to see urgently. It was the weekend and I didn't need to bother about going anywhere. I was surprised she reached out to me, Seth has been quite bothered because she hasn't been picking her calls. I sorted myself out of the equation to keep accusations from flying again just like the last time. When she called, I was sitting with mum and Annette. The two of them had told me to meet with her for the sake of sanity. Either ways, I had texted Seth that his girlfriend is with me on the rooftop. The last thing I want is to be in a scuffle with my brother, again. "I am sorry, Collin. I just feel mor
Collin's POVMy head was beginning to spin at the revelation of too many things at once. If I feel exhausted at it, Tephanie definitely looks like she would pass out. Thankfully, Seth had his hands in her knee caressing them to calm her down. The whole room was devoid of noise, each person lost in their own thoughts. It felt like there would be more hidden facts to unlock and that is worrisome. "What is the watch?" I decided to break the silence, tired of the inconvenient silence.Charlie cleared his throat, "they are more of the werewolves clan protectors. They keep tab on intending leaders and try as much as they can to protect the future of our packs."Seth snort, "so much for their roles. How are we still hiding our identity and getting worried about getting caught by wolf hunters.""Don't sound so disrespectful, they are doing their very best." Ester rebuked him. "Listen, all I am trying to say here is; Tephanie your parents aren't bad like you might tag them to be. They are ju
Author's POVPatrick turned in his bed again, trying his hardest to ignore the determined step making it's way to his door. Since they returned from Alessia's house dinner which he had left dramatically, he had avoided his father and stayed put in the room. Locking himself in. However, it was almost late evening and Ryan who had just returned from an outing was pumped to finally address the elephant in the room. And had sent a maid to call onto Patrick. When the knock came on the door abruptly and at an intense pace. Patrick knew there was no escape route for him. Taking a deep breath, he dragged himself from the bed heading out of the room. Making his way to the living room where his father paced the room with his mother sitting with her legs crossed sipping on a glass of juice. Glancing at his mother, Patrick rolled his eyes. "I am here,dad."Ryan turned to face his son with rage in his eyes. Just when he thought the boy would look remorseful for embarrassing both parents in fron
Alessia's POVI could feel Ashley's gaze watching me keenly, but I was too preoccupied with keeping my eyes on the parking space in school to give her a snarky response. I have been trying to get in touch with Patrick, which seem like an impossible task as of late. I huffed in frustration when there was still no sight of him. "What are you not telling me? She inquired, folding her hands against her chest. I turned to her, "Ashley, you would have my head for this for not telling you all about this earlier. I just didn't want to be the whining caller everytime. Knowing how much you have to deal with."Ashley hasn't been quite responsive lately, her mum fell sick and it had taken a huge toll on her. I feel like an horrible friend, prioritizing my petty situation over hers. She laughed, "it's enough that you are considerate of how I might be feeling and I appreciate it. However, leesha you have always been a pillar for me to lean on. I don't mind being there for you for as long as you
Collin's POVAs much as I have gotten fond Patrick. I am not a fan of him being close to Alessia, and to make matters worse he was holding her to himself so tightly. Ariel walked closely to me, obviously not finding the scene funny too. The both of them had history, and you never truly get over the ones you have once loved. Our eyes met and I saw her jolt away from him, with the way Patrick's shoulder was fixed. I doubt if he knew what was happening just yet. I tapped his shoulder giving him a stern glare. "Stop holding onto my girl like that. I am not comfortable with it." I told him respectfully. Alessia pouted, making a cute face at me while she wrapped her hands around me. "We were just setting things out and thought to hug it out." Patrick chuckled, "really, now? Alessia is my friend don't forget. Hey, mama." He pulled at his girlfriend. "I thought you both have chosen to sideline us." Ariel joked I shook my head, slapping his hands. "How are you doing man?" "Very well tha
Collin's POVNot only did the spear sight have me going into trance, there was something about the spear that had me feeling connected to it in a odd way. There is no way I would have come in contact with it before, I have never even held a war weapon before. Seth stood by the doorway giving me a side eye. "Why do you keep looking pale at the sight of the spear?" I shrugged with my mouth agape, "I don't know, Seth. It felt like dejavu when I saw it at the restaurant." He made his way towards me, staring at the laptop screen."I don't know what it is that comes to your mind when you see it. It looks quite normal to me." "It's just me explaining myself to you, stop being so dramatic." I retorted. "Where is mum?" "She should be in the living room. Why do you ask? "She knows history and I am certain this spear would ring a bell." "Why won't you just search the internet for it?""And what would that do? The internet won't be able to give me a forehand knowledge like a werewolf archiv
