Chapter 7: Stalking

"What are you doing here?" Stella asked Brandon when they went to the kitchen to get some food. "Your father told me to be here, so I am here!" Brandon answered while looking for a plate. "You should reject his offer! This a family matter—

"Don't nag at me, do it at your father. I am just doing what they told me." Brandon cut what she was saying, and Stella just nodded her head at him. "You are right! After you get your food, you can go back to the living room." Stella told him and gave him a glass of water. "Where are you going?" Brandon asked her when Stella started walking away. "I need to meet someone!" Stella answered and left the kitchen. 

Stella left their house using the back door, no one saw her leaving except Brandon. She was walking in the street when she saw someone on the other side of the street. "Are you sure that you want to come with me?" Sky asked her as soon as they met each other. "Yeah, I want to escape this madness for a while." Stella answered, and Sky nodded his head. "We will go back here after three days." Sky told her, and Stella agreed with him. 

"Where do you think you are going?" They were startled when Remus appeared with Brandon. "Nothing!" Stella answered and pushed Sky away. "I heard you, Stella!" Remus told his daughter, and Stella looked at Sky. "You need to go!" Stella told Sky and tried to push him again. "I'm sorry, Elder Remus!" Sky said, and Remus smirked at him. "I don't want bad blood with your family so leave my daughter alone." Remus warned him, and Sky looked at him seriously. "I will!" Sky answered and looked at Stella. 

Sky started walking away while Stella was watching him. Remus grabbed his daughter's arm and they walked to their house. They entered the house using the back door and he pushed Stella inside. "Brandon, can you go to the living room? I need to talk to her privately!" Remus told Brandon, and Brandon immediately went to the living room. 

"What are you thinking, Stella?" Remus asked his daughter but Stella didn't answer him. He held Stella's shoulder, which made Stella afraid of him. "If Alpha Raven sees you with Sky, he will think that you are not taking Brandon seriously." Remus told her and he was mad at Stella. 

Stella started crying and that's when Remus let her go. "Go to your room!" Remus told her, and Stella immediately went to her room. She was crying even though she could hear how happy her family was outside. She couldn't believe that her father could hurt her because of Brandon. 

"That guy, he told my father that I left!" Stella answered and looked outside the window. 

Stella felt tired after crying for a long time so she decided to sleep even though she didn't eat dinner. She woke up when someone was knocking on the door. She looked at the mirror first and saw how her eyes were swollen. She opened the door and saw her sister, Daisha. 

"Did you cry?" Daisha asked her as soon as she saw Stella's eyes. "Nah, I just woke up!" Stella answered and looked away. "I can clearly see your swollen eyes!" Daisha told her, and Stella took a deep breath. "Fine, I did cry!" Stella answered, and Daisha pushed her inside her room. 

They were sitting on Stella's bed, and Daisha looked around before talking. "What happened earlier?" Daisha asked her, which made Stella smirk at her sister. "Where did you go though?" Stella asked her, and Daisha couldn't answer her right away. "I am the one who is asking you, Stella!" Daisha told her, and Stella shook her head while smirking at her sister. "You are just like Dad!" Stella answered and stood up from her bed. "Where are you going?" Daisha asked her, and Stella opened the door of her room. "You can leave now!" Stella answered and looked at her sister seriously. 

"You don't want to talk about it?" Daisha asked her, but Stella shook her head. "I can handle it alone!" Stella answered, and Daisha took a deep breath. "Fine, good night!" Daisha said and left Stella's room.

Stella closed the door as soon as Daisha left her room. She locked it because she didn't want someone to enter her room. She slammed her body to her bed and looked at the ceiling. "I will not gonna see him again!" Stella said while thinking about Sky. 

The next day came and Stella left her room when she knew that her father already left. She was walking into the living room and noticed that she was alone. "Daisha is also not here?" Stella asked herself and went to Daisha's room. She tried to knock but no one answered her. "Dad let her go outside but when it comes to me, he is always mad! He is so unfair!" Stella said and started eating her brunch. 

After eating her brunch, she took a bath and left their room. The only chance she had to leave their house was every morning because her father was not at home. She was walking towards the woods when some wolves passed her. A brown wolf stopped in front of her, and she just looked at the wolf. "Go on, just run!" Stella told the wolf but the wolf didn't leave. 

Stella took a deep breath and walked away. She could hear that the wolf was following her so she turned around to face the wolf. There were two wolves following her and she didn't know them. "Okay, both of you stop following me!" Stella told them but they just looked at her. 

They walked away and Stella felt relief at what they did. Tyros appeared, and Stella immediately looked at him. "You are that wolf?" Stella asked him, and Tyros nodded his head. 

"And I am with Brandon!" Tyros said and that's when Brandon appeared. "You are the black wolf?" Stella asked him, and Brandon just looked at her. "Don't follow me!" Stella added and walked away.
