CHAPTER 1

SAMANTHA’S POV

“We’ll be late Maeve .” I screamed from the stairs

It’s 7:30am already and we have to be at work before 8am and my dear sister hasn’t even had breakfast and sometimes it’s hard to believe we are even sisters but with that been said my sister finally graced the stairs with her presence.

“You would loose your voice at this rate.” Maeve said.

“And you’ll loose weight if you keep skipping breakfast.” I replied.

“Bye mom,bye dad.” I said ask I walked out of the house while Maeve was gulping down her tea.

We made our way to the garage,got into the car and zoomed off and now only God knows how we are going to make it to work before 8am.

“Your dressing looks extra today.” I said as I looked at Maeve.I know my sister well enough to know that something was up and Maeve was someone who would dress according to the occasion.

“Hmm.” She said smiling.

“Yh,spill it.” I grimed at her.

“Meeting up with Mike after work.” She replied so casually.

“MIKE?.” I responded in shock almost slamming the breaks.we both know that’s a no go area and for God sake this man is a married man.

“Maeve,we spoke about this already and you promised me you won’t be meeting him.” I said to her.

“Why are you looking for trouble Maeve?.” I asked her.

“I knew we spoke about this Samantha,but I think I know what’s good for me and what’s not.” She answered.

“No you don’t,what do you do if his wife finds out or didn’t you even think about that.” I charged at her as I packed in the parking lot.

“Don’t talk like you in my shoes and I know what’s best for me like I said.” She said to me.

“I’m your elder sister at least and I know what’s best for you.” I said to her hoping she sees things from my point.

“At least you’re betrothed to Gamma Jonathan so you can’t see things from my view,” she said as she left the car leaving me all by myself.

I was still for some minutes cause I was trying to relate what she said to what I was bothered about,she thinks I don’t understand her cause I’m betrothed to Jonathan?.

I managed to get my stuffs and headed to the office seems I’ll be needing lot of caffeine today.Why would Maeve speak like that?.It unlike her.

I love Maeve so much that I’ll exchange my life for her if she was dying and sometimes I can say I’m over protective but I always have my reasons.

***********************

Time was far spent at the office cause I had loads of work that I even had to skip lunch.It was 5pm on the dot so I decided to call it a day,I’ll sort the mails at home.

I didn’t get any call or message from Maeve since the little argument we had this morning so I guess I’ll be leaving without her since she was going to be having dinner with Mike.

By the time I was done sorting my work for the day it was almost 6pm,I made my way down the lobby to the parking lot and at least half of the workers already left the building so it was really scanty here.

I made a stop at the store to get some things although still bothered about Maeve,if only she would see things from my view but she’s still young and naive.

Finally I got home and spent another 5 minutes in the car thinking about what my dear sister said to me.

“Mom,dad.” I said as I made my way inside.

“Welcome dear.” My mom said from the kitchen as she prepared to serve dinner.

I went into my room,showered and got dressed and I would say the shower really helped me.

I tried calling Maeve cause it was getting late already but it wasn’t reachable.I went downstairs to have dinner because I was starving and mom coincidentally cooked my favorite which was sea bass and lime couscous,absolutely the best!

I decided to go sort the mails I intended to and I was so absorbed that I didn’t know time was far spent and by the time I checked it was already late.I decided to go meet my sister to sort things out thinking she would be back but her room was empty.

“Is Maeve back yet mom?.” I asked her as I got to the living room.

“I thought you came back together.” She replied with worries showing all over her face.

It was like I was struck by a lighting.

“Why didn’t she come home with you?.” Dad asked

“She had a date.” I replied my father.

I tried calling her again but her line wasn’t going through and I was dead worried.I didn’t know about the dinner location nor do I have Mike contact.

“We should go look for her.” My dad said

I felt so guilt like it was all my fault only if I didn’t have an argument with her this morning.

Was she annoyed?

I was just looking out for her.

“I’ll go check dad,don’t worry I’ll keep in touch mom.” I said to them.

“Are you sure Samantha,we could spread.” Mom said.

“She’s fine mom,I’ll go look for her.” I said even thou I was scared as hell.

“If you don’t find her in the next one hour,I’m calling the cops.” Dad said.

“Okay,” I said as I made my way to get my keys and went outside.

I checked all the restaurant I thought my sister would love but I couldn’t find her,I tried using my inner wolf to connect to her’s but I couldn’t feel the connection I tried smelling maybe she was wasted somewhere but no avail.

I checked out all the restaurants I could but I still couldn’t find Maeve.

I didn’t know what to do,what happened?.

I didn’t have Mike contact but wait if I recall so well when Mike and Maeve met he gave her his business card and I’m sure she kept it.

I turned the car and went back to the house.

“Did you find her?.” Mom asked as I made my way upstairs,I didn’t even have the time to answer I needed to find the card.

I checked everywhere but then I couldn’t find it

“Fuck,arghhhh.” I cursed.

But then I remembered her telling me he lived in Arodome estate even though I don’t know the exact house.

Mom came into the room asking me tons of questions but I wasn’t even listening and I rushed downstairs.

“That’s it I’m calling the cops,” my dad storms.

But just then my phone beeps………
