MARCUS P.O.V "Travis please…" Alicia pleaded.I stared at his angry eyes and I knew he wasn't going to accept our plea."He is a monster," Travis answered. His statement put fright on their faces. Morgan's wrinkled skin got worse and I could tell that he never wanted it to be true."How could you say that sweetheart?" Emily said."I am not kidding or making up stories, I witnessed it myself, there were ten forest lions and he fought against them swinging them haggardly on stems of trees," Hearing Tyler's accusations, Morgan asked me if all he was saying was the truth.There was no denying it now so I had to answer plainly. "Yes, I am not human,""You lied to us, you said that you fought against only one lion but there were ten?" Emily said like she was hurt."Why did you not tell us what you are?" Morgan asked."Because I know that you will not accept me for what I am," I replied.Travis affirmed my prediction to be true. He was never going to accept me so he suggested that I leave t
ALICIA'S P.O.V When Marcus brought me into the restaurant I knew something was off, we just had a bad day so why he insisted we had this meal was something that i couldn't understand. Probably it was a make up for what I had witnessed in Morgan's home but I didn't see a reason why he would do this because of that since he was the one who was hurt and not me. Even while our conversation went on I relaxed putting up all the amusing biography of my childhood which I enjoyed but what Is happening right before my eyes is something unexpected.I loved Marcus but even though I do I wouldn't want our relationship to begin this way. "Marcus, I am sorry but I don't think this is the right timing," I said but what came next was stunning."Yes It is. This is a magical moment for me and for once in previous times i can tell that you believe I am upset but I'm not. it's been so long since I felt this way and your answer today will change my life forever, I am more happy than I have ever been befor
ALICIA'S P.O.V There were sounds of people cheering, rejoicing and clapping by my left and right side. For a brief moment I didn't know what was happening, not until I realised I was dressed in a beautiful wedding gown and I was standing on the aisle. Still uncertain about what was going on I heard a deep voice by my right side as I looked to see that it was my father Eddie and he was dressed in a comely black suit."Dad," I said, drifting my eyes down to his left palm which was open to me. "What Is going on?" I asked."Today is your wedding day, come on sweetheart," He said gently with a smile on his face as I took hold of his hand.I looked forward to the altar to see the priest and Marcus who was dressed in a comely blue suit and a cute smile was on his face. His smile was so real and attractive that I couldn't take my eyes off until I arrived at the altar and made my way opposite him.Everyone settled down at the priest's command as he made us say our marriage vows which after we
MARCUS P.O.VThe moment I stepped into Alicia's home I got the impression that today would be one of the days I had to be on my best behaviour. Of course I had met with Alicia's father and even helped him on a crime case but his countenance this morning showed me that he was going to take a different turn. Trying to read his mind wasn't going to change a thing because I could sense he would go dynamic. At this point I could see only one picture in his eyes and it was nothing more than a widower who was sad about giving away his only child."Marcus right?" He furrowed his eyebrows as he pressed his lips together. His hesitation crept the hell out of me and no matter how hard I tried to read his mind I still could not, and following after it was an unexpected question."Why Alicia? Why must it be my daughter?" He asked.The question was simple but I was careful, because it had to be what he wanted to hear. "It's because i love her,""Love," He chuckled. "You love her… what do you do for
EDDIE'S P.O.VEver since Marcus came to my home I have been having some sense of awkwardness in him, maybe it's just that everything seems new to him or he isn't comfortable.I know he is a good person but I can't let go of the thought that someone was taking my only child away, it's not an easy place to be but it's better that way. I did take the daughter of another man so it's time someone else does the same to me.I could tell my daughter loves him but why does it hurt so badly?I shook my head to get those thoughts off my mind and focus on the task at hand. 'This is my moment to find out whatever had been disturbing the peace of the California,'Some minutes later I arrived at the police station and my two work colleagues Jack and Desmond were present to receive me.They led me into one of the interrogation rooms and right there I found a beautiful young lady seated on a chair and her hands were chained to the table. She had blond coloured hair, fair skin colour and a nice figure.
ALICIA’S P.O.VMy father had never kept anything secret from me before. We had always shared our deepest pains together, I know he isn’t fine and I have to find out what is going on.“What happened dad?” I muttered while I watched him walk upstairs. Marcus was the last person I knew he was with so I think that was the first place to start. As early as 10 a.m. the next morning, after making a meal for Eddie and myself I went up to his room to check up on him. I thought he was already prepared for work but he wasn't. He had refused to leave his room since last night.When I walked inside I saw him lying on the bed with his eyes fixed on the ceiling.“Good morning dad,” I greeted.“Morning sweetheart,” he replied gently, still gazing at the ceiling.“Aren’t you supposed to be at work right now?” I asked curiously.“I don’t feel like going to the office today, I asked my colleague to fill my space, I need to rest,” he answered.“Are you sure you are alright?” I asked, gently taking a seat
MARCUS P.O.VThis was beyond what I could stand, I could sense Alicia’s suspicions but my deepest fears was that she never knew I was the one who put her friend in such a condition, if she finds out what I have done I am not sure how long our conflict will last. It could last for some months, a year, or it may result in me losing her forever, and if that happens, our marriage might not work out.I was aware Kelvin knew I was the one who damaged him; I knew what his obsession over Alicia could result to. If he wakes up and announces the details of what happened that evening to her and her father I will be doomed for sure.This was the pressure that comes upon every villain, this was the reason they committed their first dark imagination. The worst part was that I had the hunger to do the same. I wanted to kill him and make sure that he never wakes up to reveal the truth.Not all villains are bad but the circumstances they had to face had made them what they are, the pressure to keep th
MARCUS P.O.V‘You want to know the mystery behind the strange happenings in this city…. I will tell you everything but why not we first begin with who your wife truly was and who your daughter Alicia is and also the fate that awaits her and the child she will bare’While the audio went on my heart began racing because not only will the world know about the existence of my kind, they will also figure out that my mate is a catalyst that will bring about the birth of a strange beast, if this happens I will never be able to get married to Alicia. What am I going to do? It was already too late to stop him from listening to the record.I looked at Alicia who was equally startled, but our hands were tied.****Record continued‘Your wife was the a catalyst, she was the last surviving of her kind but her fate was not as critical as is that of your daughter but there were some similarities, your wife was destined to mate an alpha but when she realized that fate and the consequence attached to
