CultIrish walks into the room and I look up at him. He went on a search to find Fiona and we have let our three search parties but it seems it’s the same thing. My mother is anxious, she has been going forth and back after hearing that I had fallen in love with Fiona.She was against her before but now, she is after her to find out. No news? My mother asks Irish as he enter into the room and he nods his head in disappointment.She could be anywhere. The intruders…could they have harmed her! My nerves get the best of me when I hear that the intruders are a factor in this. I should have coke to my mind when they were discussing her. I just couldn’t word myself because I felt so betrayed and lied to.You are the one who sent her out of the pack? Why are you searching for her again? Irish asks and my mother.“She is Cult’s destined bride.” We have to find her. She says.Cult, is this true? Irish says to me and I slowly nod my head. I haven’t even been able to shut an eye throughout tod
Fiona.Somehow I feel as if Cult is calling out to me and reaching for me. I can feel him around me—it’s like I am connected to him in one way than the other. I feel my heart reaching out to him and for some reasons, I can tell that he is thinking of me.I have no idea how that works but it is exactly how I feel. I resume my work on the paper work around me and I straighten my ruffled gown. The girl who came to invite me to join Alejandro for dinner brought me new clothes and the food I barely touched.Now, my stomach is full hit I guess a full stomach can never amount to a broken and empty heart. It is difficult to move worst it especially when it is all I think about.I mean…I am probably doing well because I have so much to focus on rather than everything that happened. I miss my sister so much and I cannot believe that seeing her for the first time proved to be a very unfortunate event.She must hate me so much for what I have done to her. I have lied, schemed and down things with
I open my eyes drastically and I look around me to check if I am being followed. The whole territory of Woodbury has been violated by these strange men and no where is safe to settle. I stayed out in a cold warehouse until the next morning because I couldn’t find my way in the night.The whole city is quiet and that is abnormal. Woodbury is a busy city, filled with traders and buyer, going in and out. There is something wrong and I have the burden of informing the Lycan of this.Can I even do this without being caught? I have never been on the run before. Before I lived in Woodbury, I used to work in a bakery and it was pretty peaceful.“I grew up as an orphan outside of Woodbury, I am one who of those kids who never cared about why they grew up without parents.” When other kids cried about why they didn’t have a father or mother, I just wanted a jam pastry. And right now, that is what I want. A delicious pastry with a warm milk, in some warm blankets could really keep my growling st
I cannot even put water in my mouth after that conversation that I have just had with the so called Lycan. How can he look down on me and speak to me like I’m dirt?Destined bride my foot?After all I went through to come here and warn him about the incoming danger? Is this what I really deserve? To be suspected and disrespected? The only reason he was able to save me was because I used my own wits to get out of the city.“I get up from the bed and stare into the mirror in the tent and I see the evidence of the lash on my back.” My cloth is a mess, I look like a mess and I hate that Lycan that everyone worships.After several hours of staring at the food on the table, I hear a uproar going on outside and I get on my feet. I stand at the tent opening and peep to see what the dilemma is all about.There is a man that is being dragged about and I recognize him to be the one who lashed me. I look forward and I can see Lycan Jack. He is leading a group of men and I hate him but there is co
He is a good man, they said.He does not manipulate people, they said!It is my fault. How can I be so stupid? How could I allow him to speak to me in that revolting tone like I was dirt under his feet?“I’m no one’s dirt and I will not wait around to be treated like dirt.” I get into my tent, there is nothing I have to pack but my self respect. Grace is not present in the tent right now. This would give me the opportunity to leave without giving further explanation as to why I need to go.After packing some food supplies for the breakfast I chose not to eat earlier, I head out of the camp into the nearest exit. I will probably go back to the orphanage and beg for a job that will keep me frombeing idle.It is better than staying here and putting up with Lycan Jack. I wipe tears that begin to leave my eyes as I try not to step on the bar wires that are supposed to keep animals from coming into the camp.How can I have nowhere to go? I’m just being passed around like a person who doesn
I slept that night without thinking of what I would do the next day. And immediately, I regret my decision the moment I wake up and realize that there is nowhere to go. I turn over, facing the direction of the window that receives a bright morning light.Should I have stayed back? It's not like I am the only worthless person at the camp? What is self respect if you are homeless and hungry?"Eve, stop betraying your honor by saying this, what is food and a roof over your head if your self respect cannot be attained." I slowly get up from the bed and a knock comes at the door.I stand immediately, straightening myself and heading over to open it. I open the door and it is Olivia."Good morning." She says."Morning."Can I come in? She asks."Yes, please." I step away so she can pass.Have you made a decision? She asks and I turn my face away because I'm too ashamed about having nowhere to go.It's fine. Then, you will have to earn your stay. Olivia says.How can I do that? I ask, intere
The look in his eyes is everything that lacks kindness or patience. I try to wrangle my hands from his grip but it is tighter than the firmness of his lips.Have you had your fun? He asks.I look around and I see that everyone is watching. He is the Lycan Jack, the General of the community and the best wolf at that, who would stand up against him even if he were wrong.I put my head down when I see that everything is sabotaged against me. There is nothing I would say right now that will make me in a better light.I have sent countless men that are needed to help out at Woodbury to search for you. I was responsible enough that I sent men to track you, to make sure that you were safe. But there you are! He yells."In the territory...moving about like you do not have a responsibility to tell me face to face that you do not want to be my so-called destined bride."If you have a voice, you should use it to speak." He says but all that is see is the eyes of everyone, judging me, wondering w
"Yes, I can do that." I reply as he passes right by my side and tosses the empty beer into the bin."You can stay in any room of your liking." My house is yours. He says.I know I should be grateful for that but I still feel the disrespect on his tongue. I accept his kindness so I cannot raise it up. Later, after staring at the bottle of beer, thinking of what he said about getting married tomorrow.I finally get up on my feet to rest in one of the rooms he said I could choose from.I'm not sure where the rooms are but I go upstairs and there are a few room on the left and right halls. At the end of the hall, there is one that looks unique and I began to head there with no luggages, no nothing...just empty handedly.I slowly open the door, the room is dark and I need to find the switch to see what it actually looks like. The door shuts and that cuts off all the lighting that the passage gave it. My hands cannot even find the door knob and I feel a movement in the room."My scent catch
