KATHYI took a deep breath holding on to the doorknob of my bedroom, as I had myself ushered out in joining the others in the board room.Damon had called for a meeting and didn’t send for me but I just couldn’t sit back feeling like the burden of the pack.I had the door closed gently behind me as I climbed down the stairs keeping a straight face.It’s been over a week since I had stepped out of my room, feeling too embarrassed to want to associate with the others.But then, I had to take it all in.Ms. Elsa had tried severally talking me out of my shell of shame but still, I didn’t budge.Instead, I had myself hidden in my bedroom for days.“There you are!!!” Jess called out to me from the hallway smiling as she waved at me.I had a bright face the minute our eyes met, as ai hurried toward her.“Look who has finally decided to join us!”’she said flinging her hand over my shoulder.“Come along!!”“The guests are coming in already,” she said.“Guests?” I asked staring at her with so m
KATHY“You have to listen to me, Damon!!” I said holding him by the hand.“I know what I'm saying!!” I said looking into his eyes.“This isn't real!!”He didn't look so convinced by what I was saying. Damon stood looking into my eyes probably in search of the right words to say.“Damon!” I called out hoping he was listening.“You have to believe me when I say they are not here to help!” I said.“Kathy!” he said pulling me close to himself.“I…”“I know you have had a rough past with Bryson” “And it's been tough on your end,” he said.“But I believe he is here with good intentions only” he added looking into my eyes.“How can you say that?!!” I said.“I know a fraud when I see one and this ticket right here would be our way out of all these attacks!!” he said.No!!..Immediately I felt so disgusted hearing him say that, I had wanted to grab him by the face giving him a good punch for choosing not to listen to me but then it was going to do any good.And was going to make things worse.
KATHYI stood by the balcony up in my bedroom watching how Bryson had his men ushered in.And how dominant they were starting to be around most of our pack members.I clenched my fist at the sight of them being mistreated in the absence of Damon.I sighed, taking my eyes off them as I focused on Jess who had herself busy with the man from the other at the table.The fine young gentleman with the green eyes.Something about that guy scared me off completely as I wondered why it was seeming so hard getting to see through him.But one thing was for sure, he has a bad wolf spirit.“You look disturbed Kathy!”“Are you okay?” Ms. Elsa said walking into the room.I flinched at the sound of her voices. I wondered how possible it was that she had entered without knocking or a single trace to her entering.“Jeez, you frightened me!!” I said holding on to my chest as I turned to face her fully.“What's there to be scared about?” she asked, smiling at me.“Aren't you the brave girl from Gigolo?”
KATHYI stood there confused as to why Damon was fully in support of the use of weapons.And not just imaginary weapons but real weapons.“Come along, girl!!” Jess said, pulling me along with her as we approached the others by the court.I had my hands crossed over my chest, wondering why on earth Damon would agree to any of this.“I can see you find this interesting!” Lucien said from behind me. He sounded so close that I could feel his hot breath touching my skin.I felt disgusted at his sudden closeness and then moved away immediately.I turned faking a smile at him as I stepped away.I sat on a bench close by trying to avoid eye contact with Bryson who looked more like I was his main target for the day.And just then, Jess joined me on the bench, and Lucien next to her.I felt so paranoid seeing how close he'd been with her, wondering what his main aim of doing all that was.“Don't you have anywhere else to sit?!” I asked glaring at him.“Kathy common!” Jess said, holding on to m
KATHY“Watch out!!” Alexa yelled in my head making me flinch at the sight of him in front of me with his staff up in the air wanting to strike.I had been so lucky to have missed being hit by his staff.He smirked at me looking into my eyes.I turned to find the others smiling like they were all enjoying this.“This is ridiculous!!” I said to myself as I had my fingers wrapped around my staff looking into the eyes of my opponent Lucien.I hated that I had to prove myself in front of this large crowd and even worse in the presence of Bryson.The fight with Lucien and I went on and on, with both of us struggling and neither of us wanting to fall victim of losing to the other.But still, it was meant to be just one winner anyway and for once I thought of this to be an opportunity letting Bryson know how strong of a wolf I was.And how changed I have been in the past.I needed to distract him but just didn't know how I was going to do that.In that moment I have my arm raised and repositi
KATHYThe minute Ms. Elsa said that, I knew we had just gotten ourselves signed up for more trouble.“You have to be vigilant at these times,” Ms. Elsa said.I laid in bed confused on what to say to her as I feared her words were slowly making me see reasons to be scared.“What do you mean?” I asked.“How do you know so much?” I added looking into her old eyes wondering why she felt so different from the others.As I also wondered how possible it was that she always find it easy knowing my thoughts.“Listen to what I’m saying,”“All of that won’t matter in the end!” She said with a more serious look than earlier.I was starting to see more reasons to be worried about the whole situation.“Turn over,” she said, holding out a cloth.She had the sides of my neck cleaned, taking off the dried blood clot around the little bandages.The scene where I had been strangled, almost to death in front of everyone resurfaced in my head making my wolf so uncomfortable.I clenched my fist at the thou
KATHY“I hear his face was completely ripped off like he had been killed by a bad wolf,” I heard a maiden say as she whispered to her friend down the hallway.Good thing I had good intuitions being able to hear from afar off.I moved a little close trying to get the full info on what they were whispering about.“That's so horrible” the other said.“I heard he's been missing for months, ever since the night of the attack” they continued.The minute they said that, I knew who they were referring to exactly.Henry!!!…I paused by the hallway trying to listen to more of what they were saying about the body found in the woods.On getting close, I realized they had noticed me approaching them and then had to cease with whatever they have been talking about.“Good day ladies!” I said smiling at them hoping they wouldn’t hold back answers to the questions I had in mind to ask.“The man you speak of, has it been confirmed yet?” I asked curiosly staring at them.They both stayed mute holding on
KATHY“That can’t be Henry!” I thought to myself as I walked down the hallway alongside Jess who had her arm wrapped over chest.I could tell she was deep in thoughts, I had so many questions in mind to ask but then I knew I wasn’t going to get answers to the questions in my head either.I turned over to the frames hanging by the hallway, wondering how long it's been hanging up there.And just as I wandered off in thoughts, it struck me.“I will join you later on” I said running off.I was headed to the woods, where they had claimed to have found his body.I had my arm wrapped over my chest as I was headed out of the mansion.I didn't want anyone to follow.Whatever had happened there, I was going to find out…I hurried down the front stairs heading out the gate, and was lucky to not have been questioned by any of the guards.On getting out of the mansion premises, I realize the route down to the wood seemed a little too lonely for a lady like myself to be wandering about.I paused b
