"I'm so sorry I'm late everyone!"Heavily panting with sweat already ruining my makeup from just walking a small distance, I stopped to catch my breath and was greeted by the chuckles of old familiar faces."Oh look who it is…" Reign our Cl*ss Rep says while making her way towards me.The rest of the already-present guests start laughing as they welcome me."Always late I see," they say.Guilty I can only join them in laughter knowing their words aren't far from the truth, but that was the past me, I can't believe I carried that stigma with me."My goodness you're glowing so much," Reign says while cupping my cheeks into her small hands she turns my face side to side, excitement filled in her eyes as if studying a test subject.More importantly, what seems to be glowing rather than me, is the grand venue.Tides Bar…The most luxurious hotel bar in the city is crowned with fancy chandeliers with golden lights, the tiles are marble with 3D walls, and the ceilings are painted beautifully
Secluding myself to my thoughts I feel a terrible shiver down my spine, goosebumps all over my arms as my heart starts thumping faster, my eyes rapidly moving side to side.I'm anxious!"Vida!" I hear him whisper my name quite close to my ear, instantly snapping me back to reality.At once I moved away from him, startled by the sudden approach."Easy there, I mean no harm," he says with a chuckle. "Just wanted to ask how the kids are, how have they been…"Erik starts going on and on with questions about my twins, my eyes widen while I wonder when we became so close enough to have such conversations."Wow, Vida, you said you two weren't together, but you didn't say you married someone else," Reign says with a giggle, and the others inching in to hear the story.Once again I'm put in an awkward situation, and I can't help but notice the broad wide crooked smile carving on that b*st*rd's face.He's out to make a show of me, that's for sure."For starters everyone I'm not married, but yes
Crash!One object and another.The shattering sounds of breaking objects echo from the booth with the voices of two people barking nonstop at each other.I look around, my vision blurry, perhaps it's the alcohol, or so I thought.Carefully with dragging footsteps, I make my way to the booth, the closer I draw, the more I hear the couple yell against each other, and every five seconds I would something would crash giving me a jump scare.At some point, I stopped hearing their voices."Are they alright?" I wonder.Feeling a bit relieved, I turn to leave when I hear a banging sound from inside the room.Troubled, I continued towards the door and then stopped!The door of the booth is slightly open, a yellow ray of light shining through the small space in between.I draw my face close a bit and sneak a peek.My eyes see through the tiny space.Badumb!!!I jump back, my jaw drops in horror and I stand petrified with great shock.Inside, I see two wolves at a standoff between each other. Al
My head hurts~Feeling a sharp pain from the back of my head, with my neck aching as if I had just been run over, I open my eyes quite slowly.The world seems hazy and blue at first, I can hardly see a thing.By the next blink, images begin to sink in."...This isn't my room," I think to myself while still getting familiar with my surroundings.I see a figure, it looks like a man, hurrying towards me with aggressive footsteps.Splash~"Ah!!!!" I yell with terror as I awake fully. I could have sworn I also heard another voice coming from behind me.I jump right back up to reality right after an ice-cold bucket of water greets me. I shiver greatly with every bone in my body trembling.My skin feels beaten by rocks causing me to open my eyes. On my lap, I find what weren't rocks, but ice cubes all over the bed."Who would dare wake someone in such a cruel manner," I wonder as I look around in a haste to find the man from earlier.In a fit of rage, I scan around for him when my sight clas
That lady!I recognized her at first glance, although this might be the third glance as I had already once forgotten who she was.With boldness and modesty, she walks right through the door, the room is silent enough that one could hear a pin drop from miles away.It's her, the female wolf I saw earlier, but… how did she get here?She carries herself with a high and mighty pressure that even Linda looks away, the only one looking her in the eyes and right back at is Dexter."This is a serious issue," Dexter begins as he stands before me, blocking my view. "Are you certain you can prove that she's innocent?"Once again everywhere falls silent, however, I see a head poking out from beside Dexter as she waved at me with a chuckle.She seems fond of laughing."Oh relax Dex, it's nothing serious," she says, playfully punching Dexter. "If I say I can prove it, then I can," she answers.Dexter turns around slowly and stares at me, and with a heavy sigh turns around and nods in approval."If
Dexter and I stare at each other and then look away.The word at the tip of our tongue and yet so difficult to say, if I could ask for anything at the moment it would be that this embarr*ssing moment would p*ss for both of us.Catherine stares back at both of us, arms crossed as she shakes her head with a tsk and then she lets out a heavy sigh before caressing her forehead. She's on to something.I turn to Dexter who's still looking away. He seems rather embarr*ssed to talk about this."Um…""Wait!" Dexter interrupts my answer, tightly clenching my hand as he draws me back.He walks towards the corner of the door where Erik unfortunately hurdles himself like a child."This discussion doesn't require outsiders," he says, indirectly telling Erik.He arrives before Erik and squats, his big hands reaching out to Erik's face as he covers his face, "sleep," he commands, but his voice is so soothing and enchanting that I feel drowsy for a split second.My head feels tipsy like when I had tha
A video plays on the screen. A very visible one with clear visuals and everything.As I watch I laugh to myself, realizing I don't even need to complete the video to prove my innocence.I take a seat waiting for the rest to complete the video so I can ask them about what they think.Dexter's eyes are fixated to the screen, never leaving Catherine's phone, almost as if he wants to take the phone into his hands."This video only captures Erik interrupting her at the rest room and this is from Erik right outside this room door, and as you can see, she's clearly being dragged here," Catherine says, withdrawing her phone as she puts it away, letting out a heavy sigh."Look, I know you find it hard to trust your own kind, not more humans," she says patting him on the shoulder, "but she's your Luna, you have to treat her with respect, or at least stand up for her.""..." Dexter's silence sends a blow to my heart.As I thought he's never going to stand up for me, but to think he feels no symp
Dexter's car pulls up at the mansion, at long last, after an hour-long ride with nothing but awkward silence, we finally arrive.Bam!My anger pounces upon the door as I slam the car door quite hard."..." Dexter stares at me as I walk inside leaving him behind.I'm greeted by a circle of maids standing at the entrance leading to the stairs and whispering amongst themselves as they chuckle, "What's going on?" I ask.At once they freeze and quickly rush to greet, "Good morning ma'am," although their voices are in unison they're whispering and frightened which I find rather odd."Is anything the matter?" I ask worriedly, hurrying to put away my bag as I make my way towards the entrance."No, the young masters are just playing a game so we're watching," the head maid answers.The entrance door closes with a creak and everyone hurries to bow their heads avoiding looking Dexter in the face.I could only understand now why they looked terrified. They must have thought they were acting out o
