"Wh....... Wha.... What do you mean by Peyton's child? Does she have a child?""Yes!" She said as she nodded her head repeatedly."So how is that your headache?""I took her away from her but she died when she was five..............""Wait! Let me get this straight. You said the child Is alive but she died when she was five, how is that possible?""I don't know too, I saw her corpse. I saw her being buried but I know her voice. I can recognise her voice from my sleep, I'm sure she's the one. Helen, please help me out""So what is it she wants now?""She wants me to pay for what I did to her family""So how is that so hard for you? You should have known you were going to pay back one day and that day is here now, go pay for it""Where are you? I need to see you, I don't feel save anymore" She panicked"How old is this child we're talking about?""She should be sixteen or seventeen now, I can't really remember""Wow! A seventeen year old girl is making you shiver this much? I never expe
Jenna put her box on the bed, opened it and unpacked some of her clothes. She dropped the box beside the wardrobe and undressed, she wrapped a towel around her chest and headed to the bathroom.Few moments later, she walked back into the room with water dripping down her body. She patted her skin softly with the edge of the towel and sat on the stool. She brought out a looting from her bag and applied it on her body."This is so refreshing!" She let out a deep breath.She got dressed in a long floral dress and a hat and exited the room. *"Where does she think she's going?" Helen thought and walked out of her room to go meet her.Helen rephrased her steps and hid behind a big flower vase when she saw Jenna talking to Iris and tried to eavesdrop but could not."What are you doing here?" Iris asked as she saw Jenna walking down the stairs."I'm now living here, darling" She said with great joy on her face"Living here? How come?""Your mom allowed me stay. I have to go now, bye" She wav
"Really? Are you going to do that for me?""Anything for my baby""Okay, I'll text you my address later in the day. I have to go now" She said and left the room.She went back to her room but Maya and Liza were already at the door with her bags, along with Miss Peyton. Amber hugged Miss Peyton so tight."This isn't the end, is it?" "Of course not, honey. We would get to see each other more often" She said and disengaged from the hug"You can come over anytime to see him" Maya said and Miss Peyton understood what she meant and nodded.She stood there and watched them go out of sight.A taxi was waiting for them outside the gate, they got in and the ride started. The car pulled to a halt in front of Maya's house and they all stepped out of the taxi and went into the house."Home at last" Maya exclaimed as she sniffed in the air"Home, sweet home!" Liza added but Amber just dragged her bag to her room without saying anything."She would be fine, don't worry about her" Maya said and went
"Is that a knock I just heard?" Yana asked as she sprang up from the couch."Yes. Please, save me.""Stay right there. Until you hear my voice, don't open the door" She said and hung up"Where are you going now?" Alvin asked as Yana grabbed her car keys."I'm going to save him""Really?" He laughed for a while and stopped when he saw that it wasn't going well with her."I mean, you just yelled and threatened him now and you want to go save him?""So I should leave him to die? Stay in the basement and don't come out" She stated and left the house."Fine!" Alvin shrugged his shoulders as he walked back to the basement.Yana drove off the compound at a high speed to the hotel, the journey would have lasted for forty minutes on a normal speed but it took Yana seventeen minutes to get there. She rushed out of the car and ran to Aiden's room and she saw the manager and a cleaner at the door."Oh! Thank God you're here, Miss Yana. This man has not been opening.""Was anyone here before you?"
The next day, Liza slowly lifted her head from her hand interlocked with Anna's and caressed her face and she opened her eyes."Thanks for making it out alive, Anna""I should thank you for giving me a life" She said and Liza smiled."I have to go home for a while now" She said and Anna's smile faded away."You're leaving again? It would take two weeks before you come see me""Shush!" She shushed and kissed her forehead"I'm only going for two hours this time. I want to introduce you to my family, don't you want that?""I thought Aunt Maya is your only relative""Of course not! Don't let us deliberate too much on this, I promise to be back soon" She said, stood up and let go of her hand as Anna watched her retreated from the room.Liza boarded a taxi home and knocked on the door. Maya rolled to the end of the bed, grabbed her phone and looked at the time, it was just 4:30am."Who could it be this early morning?" She thought as she got out of bed to get the door.She opened the door an
"I told you it has to be Aiden" Yana snapped her fingers while the others just stared"But why would he do such?" Amber asked"Didn't you talk about this with him before you sent him to another city?" Alvin asked"He moved to another city already? When?" Maya asked in shock before Yana could answer Alvin's question"Calm down, guy. We'll talk about all of these when we get to somewhere private" Yana said and they all agreed with her, considering the fact that he is wanted and other people were in the room with them.They all left the CCTV room and went to the ward where Anna was."You're back!" Anna said with a smile and tried to sit up so Liza rushed to help her."Easy, girl. I told you I won't be gone for so long and I brought my family" She said as she gently pulled her nose "Yeah and I'm ready to meet them"Liza stood up, "This is Amber, Maya's daughter. Yana, Maya's friend, and Alvin, my long lost elder brother" She said, pointing to the individuals one after the other."I'm Ann
"What's the matter?" Adrian asked as he offered the seated Amber a cup of coffee"They don't want us to be together""Who? Your family? I guess I'd never be lucky about love then" His gaze changed and he looked away from Amber but she pulled his face to an eye contact."I want us to be together and that is all that matters, I can do anything to be with you""Then what about you move in here with me?" He said with excitement as he held her hands.Amber shook her head, wriggled her hands out of his and took some steps away, "No! I love you doesn't mean I don't love my family, I'm sorry but I can't do without them""It's fine, I'm ready whenever you're ready" He said and Amber hugged him.*Jenna woke up to the ringing of her phone, she grabbed it and saw that it was her informant from the counsel and she immediately answered the call."Hello? Any good news for me?" "We got a trace of the Alpha!""What? Who is she?""She was scented in Blue pack school on the day of the the Wolves Day"
"I'm really sorry, Adrian but I can't sleep over. I have to go home now" she said, kissed his forehead and left before he could utter any word.Adrian let out a deep but frustrating sigh as he watched Amber retreat from the house.*Liza got home earlier before Amber."Where have you been?" Maya asked as Liza thudded on the chair with the gifts in her hand."Just having a good time. Is Amber in?""She's not back yet and she is not answering any of my calls""Good for her. I got this for everyone, take one each. I'll go to bed now""Aren't you going to eat and where did you get the money to buy all these gifts from?""It's was a free gift show done by the road side and I'm not hungry." She said and entered the room.Few moments later, Amber slowly opened the door and walked in."Where have you been, young lady?" Maya's voice was harsh even when she was trying not to be."I'm......... I've...... I w..as...." She stuttered, unable to make a sentence.Maya thudded her palms on the table a
