The horn of the car brought her back to her senses, it was her driver’s horn.Lyn the driver was trying to signal Arianna he had reached school.As he drove into the school’s compound, he found a space to park the car. As soon as he parked Brian alighted from the car, Lyn expected Arianna to do the same.After a few minutes, Arianna still didn’t alight from the car.Lyn looked at her through the front mirror and noticed she was lost in thought, hence the reason he honked.The sound of the honk frightened Arianna.She questioned Lyn why he had to honk harshly.“We’ve arrived at school for a while now and you didn’t alight with the general” Lyn confessed.Arianna looked through the window and realized Brian had alighted already.“You should have notified me earlier,” Arianna said to Lyn in a low tone.Brian was worried he wondered what was keeping Arianna in the car.He opened the car door to ask, Arianna was also planning to alight already.Before Brian could ask why Arianna said “I wa
The rest of the class except the educator, the speaker, Arianna, and Brian burst into laughter. Arianna was lost. “Why was the police involved?” “Alice and Lucas would soon be apprehended?” “Who is the witch?” These questions ran through her mind. The educator replied to the student saying “Nobody told you the culprit was a witch!” “Can you all focus now!”. The students stopped laughing and brought out their books. The educator commanded them to submit the previous assignment she had given them. She went round as she checked the students' solution one at a time. Soon she reached Brian’s desk and didn’t find his notebook on his table. “Where’s your assignment?!” She inquired. “It.....s” Brian stuttered. Brian tried attempting the assignment questions when he went into his room after dinner, he found it difficult and couldn’t ask Arianna for the solutions. He suggested he answered the associated questions anyhow but remembered he was on probation. The assignment might be
Brian who was still sitting close to her noticed she was lost in her thoughts.He thought of something funny he could do to bring her back“Maybe I should crack a joke?” “Considering her present mood, she might not find it funny”“I probably should allow her to ponder on what next to do”“All this would be over soon my dear Ari” Brian said to himself.He ran his eyes over her as her eyes were still closed.Brian stood up to sit by her bedside, “Rubbing my hands on her hair should make her feel better”.Arianna felt his soft hands on her hair, it made her relieved indeed.Brian continued rubbing his hands on her hair until he heard a knock on the door.“Common in, the door is opened” Brian uttered.The door was opened by Lyn as he walked in.Brian was surprised to see Lyn by that time, it wasn’t closing hours yet.“Lyn!” Brian called.Arianna opened her eyes as she heard Brian say, Lyn.She found out it was Lyn “What are you doing here at this time?” She inquired.“I’ve searched every
Brianna went stay to her direct message after logging into her Instagram account, it was indeed a mess.There we more than three hundred and fifty unread messages, “Ari how many unread messages do you usually have?” Brianna inquired.“About approximately fifty” Arianna replied.“You have over three hundred and fifty now,” Brianna said as she shook her head.“Maybe opening them wouldn’t be a good idea as you suggested” Brianna mentioned.“Yes mum” Arianna replied.Brianna dropped Arianna’s phone as she sighed, she held her hands together as she thought of what next to do.She was already saddled with the recent murder and now her daughter’s secret had been leaked.“I just hope your father isn’t sleeping in his grave”“This is too much for us to handle” Brianna uttered.Arianna could tell her mother was exhausted, she wasn’t the type to complain of being tired, she had always been the strong one.“How I wish he was here with us during these trial times,” Arianna said.Brianna’s countena
“What if the cops found nothing?” Arianna asked after being silent for a while.“Not even a clue? that’s impossible” Brianna answered.“They could have clues without a concrete lead” Arianna protested.“Clue without a lead? That’s rather impossible”“The pack’s cops are known for their tenacity, they’ve already been saddled with the onus of fishing out the perpetrators”“I’m confident they wouldn’t let us down and the pack members at large” Brianna commented.“The cops you say? Mum”“Let me take you on a trip down memory lane, When Father was gruesomely murdered by Zora, the cops assured us they would hunt the culprits right?”“Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and even years had passed by right?”“Have they gotten any lead still yet?”“Will they get any soon? I doubt”“They are still yet to get to the root of his murder even though he was Alpha and you want me to sit back and trust them?”“No way! Mum!” Arianna enunciated.“Arianna let’s await their response first, from t
Brianna got into the kitchen, she made her way straight to where the fridge was standing uprightly to check what was left in there as they were running out of supplies already.She closed the fridge and contemplated on what to fix for dinner, as she couldn’t get any idea she went back to the living room.“What would you both love to have for dinner?” She asked facing Arianna.“Mum you shouldn’t be stressing yourself, the maid should do the cooking, you’re only just getting better” Arianna announced.“Wasn’t it in your presence I left for the kitchen?” Brianna questioned.“I assumed you were going to heat your medicine and instruct the maid on what to make” Arianna answered.“Can you just stop with this sickness stereotype?”“I am not as feeble as you think” Brianna protested.“I agree with Arianna on this Mother, you shouldn’t go through so much stress” Brian cuts in.“Oh, I only just left here for a few minutes and you both had successfully formed a coup against me” Brianna joked.“A
The savage murder still remains a shock to the nation and now this?Zuma had come out of the blue moon to announce the news of her missing sister and nephew on social media.It seemed a lot was going on within the pack. Murder and missing people?The news became the second trendy news of the day, it had so many retweets and likes.Zuma had made a post about her missing sister in the afternoon, she stated she was meeting with the cops the next day.According to the post she recently made on her Twitter account, she knew the people responsible for her sister and nephew’s disappearance and she couldn’t wait to unveil the perpetrators as she had lots of evidence.The news was what caught Brian’s attention earlier, he knew this would not be good on Arianna’s book side as he assumed Zuma was aware of her lost powers.Brianna, Arianna, and Brian had all finished eating, they carried on with the movie they were streaming before the meal.Arianna at some point got bored of the movie, she picke
Arianna opened her eyes slightly to see what was stopping Brian from proceeding with the kiss.As she peeped, she realized his lips were not too close to hers neither were they too far, she didn’t know why he was holding back.“Doesn’t he want her the way she does?”Brian caught the sight of her eyes, he moved his head closer toward hers, Arianna hurriedly closed her eyes thinking he was finally ready for the show.She moved her lips in anticipation, she could no longer wait to have a taste of his lips, Brian moved his head closer more and bit her ear playfully.Arianna opened her eyes widely to ask the reason behind his action, but before she could utter a word Brian whispered something into her ears.Arianna smiled as he whispered, the whispers lasted for a while and it seemed the message he had for her was a sweet one.He held her hands and they both walked down the stairs, Arianna was smiling as Brian flung her hand in the air.They left the house and walked towards the gate, the
“She mentioned something about her being a witch, I’m not so sure she knew what she was saying,” Brian said.“Yes, she is,” Arianna said.“Alice is truly a witch?!”“All this while?” “She has been pretending!” Brian yelled.“Yeah, she would witches are frowned upon in your pack after all” Selene cuts in.“But I’ve been at her place for months training, I never for once saw you here” Arianna protested.“Our meeting was agreed to be kept a secret, he was afraid Alice might have eyes on him”“He comes here disguising and you were always training those times, you wouldn’t even notice him,” Selene remarked.“And you didn’t mention anything to me?” Arianna protested.“Yes, since you both weren’t working against each other”“If I had told you wouldn’t be able to conquer Alice, you might have developed cold feet and not want to challenge her in a fight even when the fight was necessary” Selene mentioned.“The potion took roughly two months to be ready, hence the reason I insisted your traini
“That is a question for the moon goddess and not me,” Selene remarked.“I wouldn’t get answers to any of my questions?” Arianna inquired.“Brian will explain all you need to know to you,” Selene said.“I do not ever want to see that betrayal”“He could hurt me,” Arianna said.“He’ll explain everything to you when he comes,” Selene remarked.“He’s coming here?”“You came to save me as he approached me remember, you knew he wanted to harm me”“And now you allow him to come here?”“How did he find this place?” Arianna asked.“Brian isn’t what you think of him right now, hear from him, and then you can judge him”“He won’t hurt you, trust me” Selene mentioned.“When is he coming?”“You’ll be by my side throughout his stay right?” Arianna inquired.“If that would make you feel safe”“He would be here in no time” Selene responded.Arianna and Selene remained in the living room, awaiting Brian’s arrival, after a couple of hours he arrived.“Ari,” he said smiling as he stood close to her.“Do
“You mentioned you had something important to do to her earlier before the end” A soldier whispered to Alice.“I’ve decided to pay her last respect by letting her die before taking it away from her” Alice responded.“Go ahead!” She instructed.A soldier came out with the well-sharped sword, as he raised it Arianna closed her eyes and awaited her death.Arianna began to hear swords clashing, she opened her eyes and wondered what was happening, she found out a group of soldiers were attacking Alice’s soldiers and within the twinkle of an eye they wiped them out.Alice, Arianna, and the new set of soldiers remained on the spot and stared at one another.“Where are you from?!” Alice yelled.“From this pack” they all replied.“We heard you have powers but we came prepared for you,” A voice said.Alice and Arianna simultaneously turned to have a look at who it was, “Brian!” Alice yelled.“Brian baby, your soldiers mixed things up, they were supposed to come for Arianna’s soldiers and not mi
Alice snatched the sword from her and used it on her feet pining it to the ground.Arianna groaned in pain as she struggled to take the sword off her feet, “Nice stunt, you dare attack me with bees”“I’ve been too gentle on you and I think I underestimated you”“But I guarantee you you aren’t leaving this place alive!” Alice said to Arianna while groaning.Arianna managed to remove the sword and leaped towards Alice with the sword in her right hand.“It is you who wouldn’t leave this place alive” Arianna mentioned and she paused while her feet continued to bleed, she tore a piece of her cloth again and tied it around her feet to suppress the bleeding.She tried attacking Alice with the sword but she dodged all of Arianna’s attempts, she leaped as she continued to try.“You have the last chance to do as I say and walk out alive”“The choice is yours”“I should round this up quickly before the cops get here,” Alice said.Immediately she began to float in the air and her hair blew alongs
Arianna walked through the wilderness as he made her way to her pack, she gently inhaled the fresh air and she wore a triumphant look, behind her were her soldiers.Arianna made it through the wilderness and was now in the residential area, “A lot has changed in the pack, feels like I’ve been gone for a decade” She said to herself.As she continued with her journey, she drew a lot of attention from the pack members as many wondered why she was walking around the pack instead of being in a car.Some of the pack members acknowledged her presence with so much fear that she began to think why such was happening and then she figured out they thought she was Alice.The soldiers followed Arianna, pretending as tho they didn’t know each other.Arianna arrived at the mansion and heaved a deep sigh of relief, she knocked on the gate gently and the gatekeeper opened up.“Madam, Good afternoon ma”“I’m sorry I took so long, I didn’t know it was you, I thought you had been in all this while”“Plea
About two months later, Arianna was with Selene in the living room, “Silver assured me you’ve completed your training”“Even though I feel you should take more time I wouldn’t want us taking a huge risk either as it might be too late by then,” Selene said.“You shouldn’t worry yourself, I’m now as good as Silver” Arianna teased.“Remember all I told you and do not forget to bring me Alice’s heart” Selene teased.“You’ll be leaving as early as tomorrow”“I never knew your training would take months, but all is for the best,” Selene said.“I don’t think I would ever be able to repay you for what you have done for me,” Arianna remarked.“Why don’t you leave that and focus on getting the pack, only then we talk about that,” Selene said.“You mentioned something before I commenced the ritual and you haven’t said anything about it since then”“I didn’t want to be too forward by asking, it’s about the price I have to pay for the ritual” Arianna mentioned.“Why don’t you come to see me after
“A price?”“I hope I’m not paying with someone else’s life,” Arianna said.“But we wouldn’t know what the price would be until the ritual is completed,” Selene said.“What if I can’t pay the price?” Arianna asked.“There’s no price that can’t be paid, I would give you time to go and think about it then get back to me” Selene responded.“I’m running out of time, what if I leave now and the potion loses its effectiveness before I make it back here” Arianna lamented.“The choice is yours” “Would you take the bold step or just await a miracle?” Selene inquired.“I’ll take the bold step, at this point I am so desperate”“I need to return to the pack before Alice soils my Father’s legacy she needs to be stopped as soon as possible,” Arianna said.“We shall commence right away, give me a moment,” Selene said and went into her room.“The moon goddess once again came to my rescue,” Arianna remarked.“It’s going to be a three-day ritual,” Selene said coming out of her room.“Will I be staying
“I should have known he wasn’t any other different from Lucas” “I mustn’t let this get to me, all I have to do is fight back and take revenge and I will be starting from Alice”“Once again, I was betrayed,” Arianna said to herself as she roamed about in the shadows.“How could he sleep with Alice?”“I thought he was on my side, Alice didn’t even do much before she got him”“What a cheap man!”“I have to fight back before this potion loses its effect, I need to surprise the latest couples, Alice and Brian”“But how can I do that when I have no idea of what to do,” she said aloud as she sat next to a tree.Arianna began to reminisce on her whole life, from her past life to her present life and her present situation.she recollected how her Father always told her how much of a special child she was and how unique her abilities were, “And whenever I ask him why he believes I’m special, he would reply saying it was a prophecy and that he was told by a witch the night I was born”“I just
Brian went back home and waited patiently until midnight when Arianna would come.Arianna appeared at the usual time and sat next to him, “I was at the mansion” he said.“How did it go?” Arianna inquired.“I don’t know how best to put it but Alice has committed a huge crime” Brian responded.“What has she done this time?” Arianna asked.“You remember the gatekeeper,”“I was about to enter the mansion when he advised me not to”“The summary of it all is Mother is nowhere to be found and Alice has the whole mansion to herself” Brian stated.“How is that possible?”“Where has she gone?” Arianna asked.“He mentioned how Alice maltreated her”“One of the instances he gave, she banned her from coming out of her room because she questioned her”“And one day she asked that she was locked up in a room without food nor water and even her drugs”“After three days, Mother was brought out as she ordered, he made her clean the whole mansion and turned her to one of the domestic workers”“Anytime sh
