"It's fine. I'll leave then" She said and got up"Are you mad at me?" He asked, with his gaze fixed on the ground."Of course not. I understand you""Okay, so can I pick you up tonight? For a date?" He asked with a pretty smile."Not now, Fred. I have lot of things going on now, I don't have such time" She said and retreated from the shop.* Amber walked into the house, disappointment written over her as she dragged her feet to her room."What is wrong with you, Amber?" Maya asked as she walked to her room but she gave her no response and Maya followed her in.Liza looked at them in shock as they walked in. Amber dropped on the bed, her tears oozing on the pillow."What is wrong with her?" Liza asked Maya in a whisper."I also don't know." She said and turned to Amber who was really crying out her lungs."What is wrong, sweetie? You know you can always talk to mummy. I don't like seeing you in tears. Please, talk to me." She said in a pleading tone Amber sniffed in the tears, slight
"I also don't know""Helen used to be Cooper's wife until he mysteriously disappeared. Could it be that Kyle had a deal with Helen that I do not know about?" Miss Peyton thought.*Jaeleah had just stepped out of her room when Alicia saw her."Are you going somewhere?" Alicia asked."Yea, I'm going to the school. I miss Miss Peyton""Oh! Give me a minute, let me pack Raul's meal so you can give it to him""Okay, mom. I'll be waiting" Jaeleah said as she sat on the couch and Alicia went to the kitchen.After about ten minutes, Alicia emerged from the kitchen with a lunch box in her hand and then handed it to Jaeleah. The school was close to their house so she trekked to the school. She saw her father immediately she stepped into the school and she handed him the food."Here you go, dad. I have to run along now" she said as she handed him the lunch box and sprinted to the Grand Hall.Jaeleah interrupted Miss Peyton's conversion with the knock."I'll go get it" Amber said and went for t
Miss Peyton raced to the window with the note squeezed tightly into her hand but she didn't see anyone around so she sprinted out of the room till she got to the gate, looking for anyone strange but there was none. Miss Peyton approached Mr. Raul at the security unit and asked him if he had seen anyone strange."Good afternoon, Mr. Raul. Have you seen anyone strange pass through here today?""Not at all, madam. Why? Is everything okay?""Yeah, sure" She said but still looked around and sprinted back to her room, still holding tight to the note.She sat on the edge of the bed and was about to dial Amber's number when Alvin walked in and she rushed to hug him."Where have you been?" She asked in almost a shaky voice***"Here! I don't know if she came here herself or sent someone, she must be watching me and Aria could be in danger" She said as she handed him the note but before Alvin could give a reply, Aria did."Danger? Nothing can endanger Aria" She said as she bounced in with each
"Sure!" Her response was sharp and fast which Ignacio was not expecting."You should leave and never return. Someone like you do not deserve this kind of love" She said and retreated from his room.Iris ran back to her room in tears while Ignacio stood there, watching her with his heart broken to shred. Iris threw herself on the bed, weeping when the ringing of her phone got her attention - it was Fred."Hello" She said softly after a quick sniff, trying to keep her voice firm."Hi, Iris. What is wrong? Have you been crying?" He asked, a little bit worried."Not really. Can we see tonight? Probably for a drink? I need to gather my pieces together" "Sure but you have to tell me what is going on!" He said with a little sense of sentiment and command."Tell you? Fuck you! You couldn't even help me? You know what? I don't even want to talk to you anymore""I'm sorry. I didn't mean what happened earlier. Maybe I can be of help if you explain what is going on to me.""Are you willing to he
Helen hung up, put her phone in her pocket and ran down the stairs but she was stopped by Jenna who was already waiting for her."Where are you going in a rush?" Jenna asked"Were you not in this house when Ignacio left? You couldn't even stop him, you're so useless!" She snapped"Take a chill pill, I won't have you talk to me in such manner. Am I your slave? Am I here to look over your kids? You should sort yourself out and expect the soon prepared problems that awaits you" She giggled menacingly and tried to walk away but Helen stopped her by gripping her arm tightly."What do you mean by that? What evil have you done this time?""Let go of me" Jenna snapped and wriggled her arm out of her grip and walked away.Helen glared at her and decided that Ignacio's case was more important and retreated from the house, she got to the car, revved it into motion and drove off at a high speed.*Anita visited Adrian without prior invitation but as Adrian saw her at the door, he was happy inward
Later that evening, Fred met with Iris at the bar they had picked and they took a seat and a waitress approached them."What would you like to have?" The waitress asked in a sing tone."I need three bottles of beer" Iris responded in a weak and sad voice and the waitress turned to Fred."I'll just have any soft drink or juice" He said and the waitress left to get their orders ready."What is wrong with you? You promised to tell me""I will but first, allow me to drink myself to stupor, I deserve it""You don't deserve such a grave punishment, Iris" He said in a calm voice as he held her hands."You're the purest person I've been this close to. I don't really talk to people even as friendly as I am". Fred said"Why am I exempted? Because I happen to be your mate?""Maybe because I fell for your innocent eyes the first time I saw them""No!" She wriggled her hands out of his and shook her head hard."You're not talking me out of this. I want to drink and I'll have it" She stated and Fre
Fred's eyes widened as their lips locked and he tried to push her away."Are you also a coward? C'mon, make me feel like a woman" She said in a sing tone as she slowly took off her underwear.Fred stared at her body for a while, contemplating on what to do but he couldn't resist her body so he pulled her in and kissed her while his hands wandered round her body - they made love and Fred marked her as his mate. She slept in Fred's embrace.The next morning, Iris slowly regained consciousness and sat up with her head banging hard. She looked at the room, it was different and also a luxury, then she felt a gush of fresh air hit her body and she looked at her body to find it naked. She quickly grabbed the blanket to cover herself and she glared at Fred who was still sleeping. She hit him hard and he screamed, holding her hands as he tried to get up."What is the matter with you? Why did you hit me that hard?""What happened last night? Where are my clothes? Did anything happen between us?
"Cooper? Isn't he dead?""No! He had been in coma all these while.""Okay, I'll call you back. Fred is approaching" She said and hung up."Yeah, mom. I'm set, I'll go arrange the troops and find him""His details has been sent to your WhatsApp. Please, make sure you find him""Sure, mom. Be good" He said, kissed her forehead and retreated from the house.Angel called Helen back as soon as Fred was out of sight and she picked almost immediately."Hello. What do you mean by Cooper is in coma? Then, why was he announced dead?""I did that so people's attention can be averted from him. I need a great amount of power to revive him""Okay, sister. I'll make sure Ignacio is found and brought to you "*A great number of wolves army stood in rows in an open training camp and their leader, Fred walked in and stood on the platform to address them."Good morning to everyone of you. I know this seem quite urgent and might disturb your daily and personal lives so I deeply and sincerely apologize f
The day of the anniversaryAmber had woken up a bit sluggishly that morning, she was not supposed to spend the night with Ignacio since they planned to retake their wedding vows - it was like they were just getting married for the first time. She got out of bed, her hair was a mess and she sat in front of the mirror, staring at her reflection as if it was new. "Am I still going to exist tomorrow?" She thought to herself.It was 8 in the morning and the make-up artists were at the door but she wouldn't allow them in. She cried for hours before words later got to Maya and she went to her room and knocked on the door."Hey, baby girl. It's me, your mom. Please, open up" Maya pleaded as her heart ached.The door lock made a clinging sound, she later opened the door. Maya grabbed the knob, opened the door, and went in."Hey, child." She called out and took a seat beside her on the bed."I know how you feel but it's going to be fine." She assured in a shaky voice, she wished she had kept
Two years later (a week to Amber's wedding anniversary.)Amber laid on the bed that morning, sound of metal clinging together, aroma of different meal and the chattering of people filled the air but Amber could hardly hear them. Ignacio turned to her and poked her nose."Hey, pretty. What's wrong? It's too early to have that gloomy look on""I'm not in the mood for jokes this morning, please" She said, still not moving a muscle."Why? What's wrong?""You're asking me what's wrong? Really?" She shot a sharp glare at him."Wow! Calm down, babe. I know what's going on in your mind but you don't have to think of all these. Okay, let's look at it from this angle. What if you were diagnosed with a terminal disease and you only have five years to live of which you have only one week left, would you just do nothing and stay in bed all day?""No!" She hesitated"That's the point. I'm sure you're going to live your life to the fullest, explore things and places you want to. So stop this and let
Jennifer was playing with Prince Damon, giggling aloud when a familiar figure walked into the living room. She was so engulfed in the playing with Prince Damon that she didn't notice the man and everyone kept mute and waited for her to look up. Prince Damon threw his ball at the feet of the man, she got up to go get it. Picking it up and standing straight before him, she couldn't believe her eyes - it was Cooper."Cooper? Is that you?" She asked, shocked and surprised. "Yes. Who are you? Why do you have Jennifer's scent but look like Helen?""You should have your seat first, dad" Ignacio said and he he turned at his direction.He wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words so he sat and waited for someone to explain what was going on until his eyes fell on Amber."Yes, you. You have been to the hospital and promised to tell me what's going on. Why do I look this old? The man that followed me down here said this is 2023 and the nurse said that I had been in the hospital
Alicia got scared and quickly called Mr. Raul."Hey, sweetie. Our baby is in danger" She said in a shaky voice."Calm down and explain to me what's going on"Alicia explained what had happened to Mr. Raul."What? What was she thinking? I'll go meet with Alpha Amber now. You go to her and see if you can help her.""Okay, dear" she said and ended the call.She grabbed a few things she thought she might be needing and rushed out of the house. She got into the car, ignited it and drove off at a fast speed. After about twenty minutes of driving, she arrived at the hospital. She raced out of the car and was about running into one of the wards when a nurse stopped her."Please, calm down, ma'am. This is not allowed in here. Who are you looking for?" The chubby nurse asked in a calm voice."Cooper...... I'm here to see Cooper" She panted heavily."Okay, I'll take you to his ward" She said and led the way to his ward but she was rather too slow for Alicia.Once they opened the door, they found
The very next day, Jaeleah went to the hospital where Cooper was. She met a skinny nurse at the reception."Good morning, nurse. I'm here to see Mr. Cooper" She said with a smile but the nurse glared at her and rolled her eyes."How are you related to him?" She asked few seconds later."I can't disclose that but Alpha Amber instructed me to check up on him today.""Oh! You must be Jaeleah" She said with a fake smile and Jaeleah nodded with a glare."I'm sorry. His ward is the last one by the left on the first floor" she said and Jaeleah went towards the direction without saying a word."So pompous!" The nurse cussed.Jaeleah looked back with a grin."I heard what you just said. Be careful!." She warned and went her way.Jaeleah had seen him from the window before she walked into the ward. Cooper was placed on a life saving machine, his skin was pale and had developed bed sore but was neatly treated. She moved closer to him and felt his pulse and other vital organs and she shook her h
A week later (at the Blue pack school)It was the Wolves Day Feast of another set of young wolves and this was special because Alpha Amber and her family were invited and Miss Peyton was going to surprise her daughter.The ceremony started in the early afternoon with one of the school instructor giving an opening speech and followed by Miss Peyton. She was dressed in a bright purple dress that rested comfortably on her knees - she looked deeply happy as she mounted the platform to address the audience."Good afternoon, all. I want to thank you all for honouring my invitation to be here today to celebrate the young wolves who are going to be joining the society today. Special thanks to Alpha Amber, one of our past students for making time out of her busy schedules to make it down here today. Today is a really special day in my life as it helps me reconnect with my friends, family and loved ones. Without taking much of our time, let the ceremony begin." She concluded and loud applaud fi
Two days later, Amber, Ignacio, Angel, the journalist, Iris and Jennifer met at a bus station close to Amber's house. They drove down to a small village in the city where the caller (Amelia) lived. Iris, Ignacio and Jennifer were all nervous while the journey was on - they don't know what to expect.After about two and half hours drive, the cars pulled to a halt in front of a tattered house. They all alighted from the car, Amelia was at the door to welcome them."Welcome to my tattered abode, Alpha Amber" She bowed in respect."Thanks" She mumbled.She gestured them in. She served them some chilled water and sat on one of the rugged chairs."Thank you all so much for honouring me by coming down here""It's our utmost pleasure" Angel said"So, may we please begin the show?" The journalist asked."Sure, go ahead" Amelia responded.The cameras were switched on and the airing began."Good morning to all our viewer. Here we are to round up the story we started last week, with Mrs. Jennifer
Jennifer pointed at a guard and Amber ordered that he be brought out to the front."Are you sure, aunt Jennifer, that he was the one that delivered the letter to you?""I can't be wrong. He's the one" She responded firmly.Amber turned to take a look at the guard."Were you the one that delivered a letter to her?" She asked but the guard kept mute."You think this is a kind of joke, don't you? Give me the gun" She turned to the chief guard and commanded.He handed her a gun and she pointed it at the timid guard."I'll ask just once more. Were you the one that delivered the letter to her?" She roared."Yes, yes!" He trembled in fear."Good!" She let out a soft huff."Who instructed you to give her the letter?""It was Jenna, the woman in the prison. She offered me a taste of her body and In return, I was to deliver the letter to her.""You know Jenna is a hardened criminal and you dare help her against my permission?""I'm sorry, Alpha Amber. Please, pardon me!" He went to his knees a
Jennifer was confused if Jenna really had the power to wake Cooper but she is a real witch and can actually do it. She was about to agree on the deal when she had a rethink and decided to talk to Angel about it first. She took the letter and headed to Angel's room.She knocked softly on the door."Come in" Angel responded to the knock.The door opened and Jennifer walked it. She pulled out a small stool and sat down. She stretched the letter to Angel who received it with her brows raised."What's this?" She asked as she took the letter from her."Read it"Angel unfolded the letter and went through it. "Wow! This Jenna is really the devil. How could she even think of such plot?" She asked rhetorically, her gaze still on the letter.Then she looked up at her."This could only implicate you. I don't think you should get yourself involved in any of this. I mean, if she wanted to help Cooper, she would have done it long before now.""That's true!" Jennifer nodded."I don't want to fall vi
