2024-10-29 19:42:56Kimberly cried her eyes out in the kitchen. She couldn’t tell how long she had stayed there because she didn’t want to face an angry Ian. After what felt like hours, she left the kitchen, walked passed the living room and went upstairs to the bedroom. When she got into the bedroom, did she realize that Ian wasn’t home. How did she not notice when he drove out? She guess she must’ve been too engrossed in her thoughts and tears to notice anything. With that conclusion, she peeled off her clothes which was currently soaked in tears and sweat and went into the bathroom because she desperately needed a warm bath. While running the bath, she wrapped her hair in a messy bun and wiped off her makeup before getting into the bathtub.
For the first time in forty eight hours, Kimberly hated the fact that she took a leave of absence. If she hadn’t taken that leave, she would’ve gone to the hospital to take care of some

Kimberly took gentle steps as she climbed down the stairs because she was a little nervous, wondering if Ian was mad at her for forgetting about the party.She saw Ian typing away in his phone, as the living room came into view. She stood at the end of the staircase and let out a heavy sigh before speaking up to make her presence known.“I’m ready.” She said, earning Ian’s attention.Kimberly noticed the way Ian stared at her for a few seconds before composing himself. He had a look of admiration in his eyes, but quickly shook it off because of his stupid pride.Kimberly hated the fact that Ian let’s his pride get the best of him. She didn’t care anymore if he was going to compliment her or not, she just wanted them to get everything over and done with, so she could come back home and get some rest because today has been one heck of a dra

Kimberly stared at Mr. Gareth with confusion written all over her face. How did he notice? Was it that obvious?“If you don’t feel comfortable talking here, we can go outside.” he suggested, making Kimberly realize that she can’t find her way out of this one, because Mr. Gareth wasn’t willing to drop the subject.Although, Kimberly is open with both of Ian’s parents, she doesn’t know how Ian would react if he found out she told his dad about their fight, but she desperately needed someone to talk to at the moment, so she nodded in agreement and they left the party.Kimberly and Mr. Gareth walked out of the house through the back door and arrived at the pool area. She felt herself relax as she was now in the fresh air, away from the crowd. It made her feel as if she had nothing to worry about, which was far from the truth but she couldn’t help it, she al

The ride home was equally quiet, making Kimberly’s thoughts drift back to her conversation with Mr. Gareth.She could tell, he still felt guilty and remorseful for his past choices. She feels very sorry for him because the hands of time can’t be turned back to change one’s decisions made in the past, so one has to make the most of every opportunity that presents itself in the present.With that final thought, Kimberly knew what her decision was. She took a glance at Ian, whose full concentration was on the road. His facial features looked stressed, which made him look a little older than he was.She couldn’t blame him for looking exhausted, his mom made him greet all the guests, who had many questions to ask.She turned her eyes back to her side of the window, so he doesn’t catch her staring. They finally got home. I

Kimberly decided to pay her dad a visit the next day. She woke up pretty early, leaving a sleeping Ian at home. She knew he could take care of himself when he wakes up, so she only wrote a short note, telling him where she was. She would’ve loved to wait until he wakes up to give him a morning kiss but she couldn’t risk wasting any more minute so as not to miss her dad because she really needed to talk to him, even if it was a five minute conversation.Okay, that’s a pretty short timing but you can’t blame her though, she desperately needed to see her dad before he leaves for work. She hopes she makes it in time. The thought of calling both her dad and fiancé's place her home brought a smile to her face. She was grateful she could proudly call both places home, she wouldn’t want it any other way. Two blocks away from her destination, Kimberly spotted her da

Kimberly returned home that afternoon, after having lunch with her dad, feeling really awful for lying to him. She hoped this would be the only time she gets to hide something from him.“Hey babe, you’re back.” Ian greeted her with a light kiss the moment she walked into the living room.“Baby, what’s wrong?” He worriedly asked when he noticed the sad look she wore.“I lied to my dad about the trip, Ian. I couldn’t bring myself to tell him the truth.” Kimberly explained and broke down in tears.Ian felt terrible for this. If he hadn’t been so upset about her refusal to join him on the trip, she wouldn’t have been under any pressure to please him, at the expense of disobeying her dad.“Baby, I’m so-““I need a nap.” She cut him off and headed up

“I’m going to miss you so much, Dad.” Kimberly said to her dad over the phone.“Me too honey. Promise you’ll give me a call everyday?” her dad said in his lovely fatherly voice.Kimberly couldn’t deny his request even when she was aware of the fact that it won’t be possible.“I'll try to do that.” she replied, feeling bad for making an impossible promise.She had no idea if there was going to be signal where they’ll be camping.“Okay sweetheart. Have a safe trip and say hello to Ian.”“I will dad. Please take good care of yourself until I get back.” she pleaded, with much concern in her voice.Kimberly could hear her dad’s laughter at the other end of the phone, making her internally roll her eyes. She knew her dad was only laughi

As Simon drove further away from the lively parts of California, Kimberly couldn’t help but feel nervous; this was her first time going on such an adventurous trip, so she couldn’t help but worry because she had no idea what to expect.“Hey, are you okay?” Ian quietly asked, giving her hand a light squeeze.“yeah.” She replied, forcing a smile.The silence was short-lived by noises coming from the back. Leo and his girlfriend Amber were having a heated make out session at the back of the van, not caring about the rest.“Guys, keep it down. Will you.” Simon said with a chuckle in an attempt to stop the couple, but he was completely ignored. This brought a smile to Kimberly’s face, she admired how open and carefree these friends were around each other, as the others went on with their business like something awkward wasn’t

Kimberly was impressed with the cabin once she got inside. It was simple and had a homey touch to it. There was a fireplace in the living room to keep them warm at night, two sofas and a recliner which can certainly accommodate the six of them comfortably, a small dinning room close to the living room and then there is a kitchen.A staircase led to the bedroom. Luckily, there were three bedrooms which was a huge relief for Kimberly who had thought they would be sharing a room or two. The room was simple with nothing special, just a bed, a nightstand on each side of the bed, a table and chair across the bed.Everything in the cabin was made of wood. Maybe this wasn’t a bad idea after all, Kimberly thought to herself. While staring at the room, trying to take in every detail, she realized there was nowhere to charge a phone, but, that wasn’t even the weirdest part of Kimberly’s discovery. She also found out that there

Kimberly’s breath hitched at the sight of her father.“Can you explain to me, what is going on here?” Mr. Wright asked with a raised eyebrow, staring directly at his daughter who was a nervous wreck.Wasn’t he supposed to be asleep? Kimberly’s subconscious asked, still finding it difficult to answer her dad’s question. She opened her mouth to say something but no words could come out.'You can do this, Kim. Just tell him the truth. Besides, he knows about their kind, so it should be easy.' She encouraged herself, finally picking up the courage to speak.“Dad, um. I-I, um. This is Roy, my m-mate.”'Way to go, Kim. That was quite courageous.' She mentally face palmed.Mr. Wright couldn’t believe what he just heard. He could feel his heart shattering into a million pieces from Kimberly’s r

“Roy?!” Kimberly gasped as she stared in shock at her mate. Her mind was playing tricks on her, she concluded, shutting her eyes once again.'This is another hallucination, Kim. Don’t get your hopes up' she internally said to herself, getting herself prepared for another round of disappointment.She opened her eyes once more, and to her greatest surprise, Roy was still there, just inches away from her.“Kimberly” he called, oh so gently, bringing tears to her eyes.‘Could this be real?’ she wondered, slowly stretching out her arm, in attempt to touch him.She flinched away when her fingers lightly touched his arm, not wanting to believe that this is real.It took her a few seconds to actually believe that it was indeed real, and the minute she accepted it, she engulfed him in a tight hug, with uncontrollable tears rol

“That was so unprofessional of you, Dr Wright!” Dr Cullen angrily yelled.“I’m sorry.” Kimberly nervously apologized.“Sorry? You’re sorry? We almost lost a patient because of your negligence!”Kimberly was aware of the fact that she made a terrible mistake back there in the operating room. If they hadn’t struggled to get her full attention back on the surgery, she would have lost her patient, which has never happened before.“I know I made a mistake and I’m sorry, but I still saved the patient’s life. That’s what matters.” She tried to defend herself as she was already in tears because she hated being yelled at.“Are you even listening to yourself?.. I never expected such from you.” Dr Cullen said, his voice heavy with disappointment causing Kimberly to feel even worse.

Kimberly watched as the body of the man she once called the love of her life and fiancé was being lowered six feet under the ground, along with his two friends. Her tears flowed freely down her cheeks, as she realized that he was truly gone, he has left her forever. She would never see those lovely blue eyes or his beautiful smile ever again. She would miss seeing him looking all handsome in his white uniform.An arm went around her shoulder, giving it a light squeeze. She turned to see who the arm belonged to, it was Tony, Ian’s dad. He gave her a sad smile before handing over to her the flag which was previously on Ian’s coffin.Kimberly stared at it for a minute, tracing her fingers on the fabric before breaking down in tears. Why aren’t these people blaming her for what happened? Why did they believe the story that some wild animals killed their son and his friends? She doesn’t deserve

Kimberly’s eyes fluttered open but a bright light caused her to shut them back.“What’s that?” She wondered, trying to open her eyes again.She repeated the process three times before her eyes adjusted to the bright light. She glanced at her surrounding, trying to figure out where she was.Where the hell I’m I? This isn’t my bedroom, neither is it Roy’s or Hugh’s.Her heartbeat quickens at the thought of those two names, as the memories of the war came flooding back making it difficult for her to breathe. The sound of something beeping and her dad rushing to her side, pressing a button with a worried look was the last thing she heard and saw before going unconscious again. Kimberly woke up again, this time, to the sound of the beeping beside her. She realized she was still in the same place.

Kimberly let out an ear piercing scream as her whole body went numb. She couldn’t believe what just happened. It didn’t happen, did it? She mentally asked, as she stared blankly at the spot where Roy and Hugh both were, a while ago. There was nothing there, just a fallen tree.Roy, her missing piece, her soulmate is gone. Nothing or no one could convince her otherwise, because she felt a sharp pain in her chest when he fell off the cliff. Hugh killed him right before her eyes.Her knees went weak and she fell to the ground, crying into her hands. ‘This pain is too much' she cried, rubbing her chest. This is far worse than when she lost Ian. This was death itself, she concluded, as she let out another scream, not caring about her surrounding.Alan, Elijah and some of the other pack members ran to the river below the cliff, after giving orders to the pack doctors and the rest of both pack members,

It was like everything happened in slow motion for Kimberly as she watched both her mates fight themselves like it’s the last thing they needed to do. They clawed and bit each other without realizing that they had gotten to the edge of a cliff and that was where it happened.Kimberly watched as Hugh scratched and clawed Roy at every chance he got, not giving Roy any room to retaliate, resulting in Roy being badly wounded. Hugh pinned him to the ground again, finally getting him where he wants him.There was nothing Alan could do at the moment because he was fighting off two werewolves that had attacked him, preventing him from helping Roy.They were both in dangerous positions, causing Kimberly to run towards them. She could feel her heartbeat getting slower by the minute, which meant she was losing Roy.As she ran, she kept screaming for Hugh to stop his assault on Roy, bu

Mr. Wright was beyond crazy because his only child was no where to be found, and so was her fiancé. Where in the world could they be? He wondered, as the cops had searched every hotel, resort, motel, anywhere they could, in the whole of California, but still, there was no trace of Kimberly and Ian.They have contacted the naval headquarters to inform them of the current situation and to their surprise, they were told that there were reports of two similar cases two weeks ago and since then they have sent out a search team to look for them.Mr. Wright didn’t want to believe Mr. Gareth's words when he told him that Ian and Kimberly went camping in the woods. But, with everything happening at the moment, he had no other choice but to go into the woods, since that was their last resort. He prays they find them there, alive and safe.# &

Roy made a call to their pack doctor and asked him to come over to his place to check on Elijah. In less than an hour, the doctor was at Roy’s house with the necessary equipment needed to perform his work.After he was done checking on Elijah, he confirmed that there were no internal injuries, even though he was badly beaten by the alpha.Roy swore to himself that he was going to make Hugh pay for all the hurt and pain he had caused his pack, when he comes face to face with him. He couldn’t help but feel guilty when he saw Christine’s tears. She was trembling with fear when she saw her son’s unconscious and completely bruised body. This was all his fault, he shouldn’t have left Elijah by himself after being viciously attacked by Hugh’s warriors the day before. He should’ve known Hugh would have something up his sleeves.Alan could tell, Roy was blaming himsel
